2、用方框中所给单词的适当形式填空，使短文完整、通顺。

In 1876, Mark Twain published The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. The book is fun to read. Even today, it is quite 【1】 among children. And although I am in my thirties, the novel remains one of my favorites. After rereading the book 【2】, I learned an important lesson from Tom Sawyer.

In our daily lives, we are often given some boring or tiring tasks. Let’s be honest: What’s on your mind when your mom 【3】 you to sweep the floor? Have you ever wanted to complain? I think most of us have.

Tom Sawyer, however, 【4】 “differently" when he was given a boring task.

One Saturday morning, Aunt Polly told Tom to paint the fence. Tom’s friend Ben happened to walk past. Instead of 【5】 , Tom told Ben that he felt “excited” about the task. “Only one in a thousand—maybe even two thousand—boys can do this,” Tom said. “I enjoy it very much!”

Tom’s words made Ben 【6】 in the task. He even gave Tom his apple so that he could have a chance to paint the fence. If Tom had thought about 【7】 but complaining, he would have spent a bad day painting the fence.

Tom thought differently in order to trick others into working for him. Yet this story teaches me a 【8】 lesson: Complaining is useless. The next time you are given a boring or tiring task, don’t complain. 【9】 what happens in the story of Tom Sawyer, it is unlikely that someone will come and do the work for you. However, without complaining, you’ll feel 【10】 and perhaps even do a better job!

22、Imagine you are taking a walk on the beautiful beach. Just then, your feet step over something and you hear a crack(噼啪声)—an empty plastic bottle. Things like this are happening more often because of sea rubbish.

Studies show that 80% of all the waste is from the land. The waste is mainly plastics (塑料制品) which are really hard to degrade(降解). So the rubbish will remain there for a long time. Some of the pollution is caused accidentally. For example, about 10, 000 productfilled boxes are lost at sea every year from business ships. Sometimes people just throw them into the water from boats or land as they like. Many large rubbish areas are formed in the North Pacific Ocean.

Thankfully, the situation isn’t ignored (忽视). Groups like the National Oceanic Atmospheric Association(NOAA) are taking action to help clean the sea. Since 2006, 76 projects have cleared out 3, 814 metric tons (公吨) of rubbish from the sea. Methods of rubbish cleaning include using machines to remove(移除) the waste away from the surface of sea water. Besides, special nets are set by the mouths of rivers to stop the rubbish before it reaches the sea. If everyone does his part, sea rubbish seems like a problem that can be solved.

【1】The sea waste made of ________ will remain for a long time.

A．paper

B．wood

C．plastic

D．cotton

【2】In the second paragraph we can know ________ are also some of the sea rubbish.

24、   People who go to a formal Western dinner party for the first time may be surprised by table manners in Western culture. Knowing them will help you to behave properly.

First you should know how to put knives and forks. The forks are always on the left while knives on the right of the plate. When you see two spoons, you should know the bigger one is for soup and the small one for dessert. When you sit down at the table, you can take your napkin, unfold it and put it on your lap.

Then dinner starts with a small dish. Some people pray before they start eating, and other people may keep silent for a moment. After that everybody starts. After the small dish, you will get a bowl of soup-but only one bowl of soup and never ask for a second. Many Westerners like to use their fingers when they eating chicken or other birds at table, but never touch beef or other meat in bones. It is polite to finish eating everything on your plate, so don't take more food than you need. Of course you should try to speak quietly and smile a lot, but do not laugh all the time at the table.

However, table manners change over time. They follow the fashion of the day. Also, table manners are only important at formal dinner parties. If you're not sure what to do, you can always follow your hosts. Although good manners always make you look good, you do not need to worry about all these rules while having dinner with your friends or family.
