21、   Do you have a sister?Sure,you may share your sister's hair­pulling,fight over toys and schoolyard dramas(剧本)when you were kids,but even so,you probably know how lucky you are to have her in your life.Lots of studies tell us this: having a sister makes you happier.

One of the studies found that people who had at least one sister were able to deal with problems and communicate with others better.For example,when their parents say “goodbye” to each other,there were lots of bad effects on their children.If he/she has a sister,she often provides much ­needed help.She can look after her younger brother or sister.

So why do sisters make us happier?Women would like to talk about their emotions and lives more than men do.And when you grow up in an environment in which you're encouraged to say your problems and fears,you're likely to be better adjusted than someone raised in a boys­only family.

Lots of people grow up to be well­ adjusted even without a sister.But if you've got one, give her a hug—she may help you become a happy person.

22、One day, a boy had a fight with one of his classmates. He didn’t wait until school was over, and hurried home to his grandfather. He told him his story angrily. “He is really bad,” the boy said, “and I hate him.”

The grandfather said, “Let me tell you a story. When I was a boy, I, too, sometimes hated others for what they did…”

As the boy listened carefully, the grandfather went on, “There are always two tigers inside my heart. One is good and kind. He gets on well with everything around him.

23、Every year, we celebrate many special days—Mother’s Day, Father’s Day and New Year’s Day. In some countries, there is a special day for playing tricks on others. In North America and parts of Europe, this day is known as April Fool’s Day, and is celebrated on April 1.

Many people believe that the French started April Fool’s Day. Centuries ago, New Year’s Day in Europe was on April 1. In 1582, the calendar changed and King Charles Ⅸ of France moved it to January 1st.

Some people did not like this, and chose to keep April 1 as New Year’s Day. Many called these people “April fools” and played jokes and tricks on them. Over time, April 1 became a day to have fun in France. It then spread to England and Scotland, and later, to North America.

On April Fool’s Day, jokes are common. In the United States, for example, a person may move a friend’s clock ahead one hour, or change sugar into salt. In Scotland, April Fool’s Day lasts for two days. The second day is called “Taily Day”—for one’s “tail”. On this day, people might secretly put a sign saying “kick me” on a person’s back or behind. Other countries have their own “Fool’s Day”. In Spain and Mexico, people play tricks on each other on December 28. In India, it happens on March 31. In many countries around the world, April 1 is a day of fun. Jokes bring about a lot of laughter, and many shouts of “April Fool”!

24、   What does an astronaut eat in apace? This is a question that will puzzle many people. In the early space travel years, astronauts ate dehydrated (脱水的) foods that were eaten through straws (吸管). In today’s space-age, the food that they eat is quite different. They eat food in the same way as people do on Earth.

Astronauts are able to prepare and eat a variety (多样化) of foods in space now. Some can be eaten in their natural form, like fruits, while some need to add water, like noodles. However, there are no fridges, so the food has to be prepared and eaten without being stored for a long time. When the astronauts are hungry, they simply eat the food by opening the food packages and eat with a fork, knife and spoon.

Just like people on Earth, astronauts also eat three meals a day which include breakfast, lunch and dinner. Sometimes they also eat snacks. The US space agency NASA has found out that an astronaut’s diet reduces (减少) by about 70% on a space mission, though he has a wide range of foods to choose from like nuts, chicken, beef, seafood and candies. Drinks in the spaceship include coffee, tea, juices, and lemonade.

Astronauts can also ask for a special food that they would like to have in space. Scientists are always experimenting and trying out different space foods that can be offered to astronauts when on space missions (任务).

【1】In the early space travel years, astronauts ________.

A. ate dehydrated food

B. drank milk through straws

C. ate the same food as on Earth

D. ate with a fork, knife and spoon

【2】In today’s space age, astronauts ________.

A. can only eat fruit and noodles

B. can’t eat anything in a natural way

C. can use the fridges to store the food

D. can eat many kinds of food like on Earth

【3】Scientists are always experimenting and trying out different space foods that can be offered to Astronauts ________.

A. when they exercise

B. when they are sick

C. when on space missions

D. when they relax themselves

25、根据短文内容和所给汉语提示，在空白处写出单词的正确形式，每空一词。

A few months ago, I 【1】(注意到) that the city food bank needed some volunteers. I used to be an organizer, so I wrote to 10 friends and invited them to 【2】(义务做) to make and serve dinner for the 【3】(有残疾的) people. Almost all of my friends agreed.

One day, 【4】(几个) of my friends brought some food and helped prepare the meal. “I got such a 【5】(强烈的) feeling of 【6】(满足) when I saw them get the food！” said one friend. Later, another friend made a list(清单) about serving, so we could do quickly and easily. Now each month there are new faces that join the group.

It's hard to 【7】(想象) that simple 【8】(信)  asking friends to help have made a great difference. At first, I just wanted to be an organizer. Now, I 【9】(改变) my idea. I also love to work as a volunteer, because I can get more 【10】(高兴；愉快) from the happy faces of the people who need help.
