22、This is a story about a boy named Sparky. For Sparky, school was all but impossible. He failed every subject in the eighth grade. He got a zero in physics.

He didn’t have friends, either. Other kids didn’t care about him. If a classmate said “hello” to Sparky outside school, he would feel very surprised.

23、Dou Kou, a Chinese boy, has written 4 books till now. And he is called “the youngest writer in the world”.

Dou Kou was born in Hubei Province in 1994. When he was 7 months old, his parents started working in more than 30 different cities, such as Xi’an and Shenzhen. This kind of life gave him things to think and write about.

When Dou Kou was 9 months old, he could speak. And at the age of one, he could say five to six hundred words. At 3, he could look up words in the dictionary. At 4, his father taught him to learn something. His parents like reading very much. So does he. At the age of 5, he began writing fairy tales.

His fairy tales are all from his life. One day, he found many mice in the house. They not only ate their food but also hurt his mother’s hand. So he thought, “If we give mice the stomachs of cows, they’ll eat grass and it’ll be helpful to people.”This was his first fairy tale Change Stomachs for Mice. At 6, he wrote a novel about his own life in different cities with his parents.

Dou Kou studied well in middle school, and he wrote his third book, the novel called Eyes of Childhood. He said, “I am not different from other children. I just wrote several books.”

24、As a man was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped, he was surprised to see that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. It was clear that the elephants could easily break away from their ropes but for some reason, they did not.

He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and didn’t run away. “Well,” the trainer said, “when they are very young and much smaller we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it’s enough to hold them. As they grow up, they believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope can still hold them, so they never try to break free.”

The man was surprised. These animals could at any time break free from their ropes but because they believed they couldn’t, they were stuck(困在) right where they were.

Like the elephants, how many of us go through life hanging onto a belief that we cannot do something, simply because we failed at it once before?

In December 1903, New York Times questioned the intelligence of the Wright brothers efforts to invent a machine that would fly. But one week later, at Kitty Hawk, the Wright Brothers took their famous flight.

Albert Einstein did not speak until he was four and did not read until he was seven. His teachers and even his parents thought he was very slow. And while he may have been a 'slow starter', I'm sure you'd agree that he was very successful in the end.

Failure is part of learning; we should never give up the struggle in life.

【1】Why do the elephants never try to break away from the ropes?

A. Because they are too young to do it.   B. Because the rope is very strong.

C. Because they think they can’t.   D. Because they think the trainer will beat them.

【2】How did the man feel after he heard what the trainer said?

A. Excited   B. Relaxed   C. Happy   D. Surprised

【3】Which of the following is right according to the paragraph?

A. The trainer takes very good care of the big elephants.

B. The same size ropes can hold the big and small elephants.

C. The Wright brothers didn’t invent the first plane.

D. Albert Einstein did not speak or read until he was seven.

【4】What can we learn from this passage?

A. Failing is part of learning.   B. We should learn from the trainer.

C. Training animals is interesting.   D. We should give up the struggle in life.

【5】What is the best title for this test?

A. Young And Old Elephants.   B. A Clever Trainer

25、   Dr Livesey  came to the fort in the morning as promised.
