21、I’m Mary. I still remember the first day when I came to junior middle school two years ago. How nervous I felt! On the second morning of the reading class, my English teacher came to me when I was reading English. After listening to my reading for a while, she gave me a big smile, which shone on me the whole day. Thanks to the beautiful smile, I had the courage to read and speak English loudly. My English was becoming better and better. From then on, I have realized the most useful encouragement is smiling.
Smile is an attitude (态度) to life. There is always something bad in our lives. For example, you may fail the exam, or you lose your family members. All these may make you sad. How do you solve (解决) the problems? Why not learn to smile at life? On the one hand, smiling at yourself can bring back your confidence. On the other hand, we should smile at others. It will help us win friendship. Smiling is the most useful body language. It can be not only good for others, but also helpful for ourselves.
I think if we smile often, even stones could sing songs. Everyone can make it if we put our hearts into it.
【1】When did Mary begin to study at the junior middle school?
A.2 years ago.
B.3 years ago.
C.4 years ago.
D.5 years ago.
【2】What did the teacher’s smile bring to Mary?
A.Courage.
B.Health.
C.Money.
D.Patience.
【3】What’s Mary’s suggestion for solving something unhappy?
A.Learning to smile at life.
B.Asking others for advice.
C.Communicating with others.
D.Solving it in time.
【4】Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A.The most useful encouragement is smiling.
B.Smiling is a kind of useful body language.
C.Smiling is good for ourselves and others.
D.Stones can sing songs because we smile.

A.How we should smile at others.
B.How the teacher helped with Mary’s English.
C.Smile is an attitude to life.
D.Smile can make us succeed.
22、 I ran into a stranger as he passed by. "Oh, excuse me, please" was my reply. He said: "Please, excuse me too; I wasn't even watching for you."
We were very polite, this stranger and I. We went on our way and we said goodbye. But at home a different story is told-how we treat our loved ones, young and old.
Later that day, when I was cooking the evening meal, my daughter stood beside me very still. When I turned, I nearly knocked her down. "Move out of the way." I said with a frown. She walked away, her little heart was broken. I didn't realize how cruelly I'd spoken.
While I lay awake in bed that evening, my husband said to me, "While dealing with a stranger, common courtesy(彬彬有礼) you use, but the children you love, you seem to abuse. Look on the kitchen floor and you'll find some flowers there by the door. Those are the flowers she brought for you. She picked them herself: pink, yellow and blue. She stood quietly not to spoil the surprise, and you never saw the tears in her eyes." By this time, I felt very small, and my tears began to fall. I quietly went and knelt down by her bed. "Wake up, little girl," I said. "Are these flowers you picked for me?" She smiled: "I found them out by the tree. I picked them because they're pretty like you. I knew you'd like them, especially the blue."
I said: "Daughter, I'm sorry for the way I acted today. I should not have yelled at you that way."
She said: "Oh Mom, that's okay. I love you anyway."
I said: "Daughter, I love you too. And I do like the flowers, especially the blue."
Are you aware that: If you die tomorrow, the company that you are working for could easily replace you in a matter of days. But the family you leave behind will feel the loss for the rest of their lives. And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more into our work than into our families-an unwise investment indeed.

23、All living things on the earth need other living things to live with. Nothing lives alone. Sometimes one living thing kills another to live, so they form a food chain.
Plants make food from sunlight, water, air and so on, while some animals feed on (以…为生) plants directly. For example, locusts (蝗虫) are small insects. Millions and millions of locusts in a group can eat anything that is green, including a lot of food that people need. In India, locusts have ever destroyed (破坏) many fields of crops. However, locusts can be food for birds, chickens, ducks or other living things, even humans.
Humans are at the top of the food chain, they eat not only locusts, but also birds, chickens, ducks or many other plants and animals. They are members of many food chains, but they often break up the food chains.
Each form of life is linked (有…联系) to all the others. Breaking the links puts all lives in danger. Humans should share the world with other living things in peace.
【1】No living things can live alone.
【2】Some animals eat plans directly to live.
【3】Locusts don’t eat food that people need.
【4】Humans hardly ever break up the food chains.
【5】It’s dangerous for humans to break up the food chains.
24、 Last month I took part in(参加) an underwater research project in an area of the Gulf of Mexico (墨西哥湾) called the Flower Gardens. A team of researchers (研究者) were trying to learn more about the fish living in this part of the sea.
The team used a piece of underwater equipment (设备) called ROV to collect information. This underwater equipment is called a Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV). The ROV could tell people the water temperature and how deep it is. It also had a camera that sent videos back to the boat. It was controlled by a computer on the boat, and I was allowed to use it a few times.
However, the thing I enjoyed most was diving (潜水) into the water. At first, I was quite frightened —mainly because I couldn’t see any land. But as soon as I jumped into the water, I wasn’t afraid anymore. It was amazing to see the colorful fish swimming around and I could see all the ways to the Flower Gardens.
I will never forget the Flower Gardens. The trip was like a holiday, but I also learnt new things about science and research projects. The team was very friendly and everyone was happy to explain what they knew about the sea. It made me think about my job in the future. The experience will help me work harder to become a scientist.
【1】What can we know about the ROV?
A.It is expensive.
B.It is not easy to control.
C.It can’t tell us the temperature of the water.
D.It can record what is happening under the water.
【2】The underlined word “frightened” in Paragraph 3 means_______.
A.严肃的 B.神秘的 C.害怕的 D.骄傲的
【3】What does the writer want to be in the future?
A.A pilot. B.A scientist. C.A teacher. D.A doctor.
【4】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.The researchers taught the writer a lot.
B.Only a few people know the Flower Gardens.
C.The writer doesn’t want to try diving anymore.
D.The writer didn’t see fish around the Flower Gardens.
【5】The writer writes the passage to ________.
A.give advice on understanding difficult science problems
B.explain how to choose a meaningful science project
C.ask others to do scientific research themselves
D.describe the experience he had in a science project
25、 Rivers are one of our most important natural resources(资源). Many of the world’s great cities are located on rivers, and almost every country has at l______ one river running through it that plays an important part in the lives of its people.
Since the beginning of history, people have used rivers for transportation. The longest one in the United States is the Mississippi. The lifeline of Egypt is the Nile. To the people of India, the Ganges is great, but it is also important for transportation; ships can t______ along it for a thousand miles. Other great rivers are the Congo in Africa and the Mekong in southeastern Asia. The greatest of all for navigation(航海), however, is the Amazon in Brazil(巴西). It is so wide and so deep that large ships can go about two thousand miles up it.
B_______ transportation, rivers give food to eat, water to drink, water for crops, and chances for fun. In order to increase the supply(供给) of water for crops, engineers sometimes build a dam (大坝) a________ a river and let a lake form behind the dam. Then people can use the water not only to irrigate (灌溉) their fields but also to p_______ electricity for their homes and industries.
However, large cities and industries that are located on rivers often cause problems. As the cities grow in size and industries increase in number, the water in the rivers becomes polluted with c_______ and other materials. People are learning the importance, however, of doing more to keep their rivers clean if they want to enjoy the benefits (利益) of these natural resources.
