21、There were many plants in a forest. When spring came, a pine tree saw a red rose nearby and said, “What a beautiful flower! I wish I were that lovely.”

The rose proudly said, “It seems that I am the most beautiful flower in this forest.” Then the rose looked at a cactus (仙人掌) and said, “Look at that ugly plant full of thorns (刺)!”

“What a proud flower!” thought the pine tree.

As the days passed, the red rose often looked at the cactus and said bad words about it, like “This plant is useless. How sorry I am to be his neighbor!”

The cactus never got angry and even tried to advise the rose, saying, “Everything has its value.”

Spring passed, and the weather became very hot. As there was no rain, the red rose began to wilt (枯萎).

One day the rose saw birds put their beaks (喙) into the cactus and then fly away. The red rose asked the pine tree what the birds were doing. The pine tree explained that the birds were getting water from the cactus.

“The cactus has water?” asked the rose.

“Yes, you can also drink some from it. The birds can bring water to you if you ask the cactus for help.”

The red rose felt too ashamed to ask for water from the cactus. But finally it did ask for help. The cactus kindly agreed.

22、   People are always trying to live a healthy life. You might have read so much on this topic. The following ideas may sound strange, but they can really help you.

Exercise when you are tired.

After a long and tiring day of study, exercising might not sound like a good idea, but it should. In fact, physical activities can provide you with the missing energy. Research shows that exercising for just 30 minutes can make you feel good!

Write by hand to help the brain be active.

Although writing something using a computer is faster, it is much better to remember the whole thing by writing it down by hand. When you read a handwritten text, naturally it′s easier for your brain to remember the information.

Spare more time for yourself.

By sparing the time for yourself and just being alone for a while, you can have a chance to think and get to know yourself better. And you won′t behave impulsively(冲动地).

Drink hot drinks on a hot day.

What cools more on a hot summer morning, cold water or hot water? The study shows that the hot water does make people feel cooler. When you are drinking something hot, the body will feel the change in temperature and increase the perspiration(流汗), which helps you cool down!

23、Today most middle school students pay little attention to sports. Is it because they have no interest in sports? It may not be the fact.

They often say they have other more important things to do. What are these important things? Exams!

They usually spend over ten hours a day studying for exams. So many of them almost become bookworms. In the summer holidays they could hardly do anything they like. Books stop them from going in for sports.

Because of too much pressure from parents and teachers, they have to work harder.

As for the students themselves, they want to get good results so that they can go further for their studies. They don’t have to put all their effort into studying and give up all the sports and hobbies. In fact, education cannot go without physical exercise, because a quick mind hardly goes along with a weak body.

All the students should remember: If you don’t have a strong body, you can never achieve anything.

根据短文内容判断正（T）误（F）。

Greg’s story began with failure. In 1993, he set out to climb K2, the world’s second highest mountain. But Greg never made it to the top. After five days, he stumbled (踉跄) into the village of Korphe in northern Pakistan, injured (受伤) and hungry. The kind villagers there looked after him for several days.

Greg went back home to the USA to raise money for the school. He even lived in the car to save money! Finally he went back to Korphe and built the school. But this was just the beginning of something bigger! Later, Greg’s organization has built around 80 schools and runs many others in Pakistan and other countries too.

He does many other things to help people in poor countries. He has got many prizes, but it’s the smiles of the children he has helped that make him happy!
