21、   I still remember I was 11 years old when I asked my mom for piano lessons in 2010. We were in the fallout of the recession (经济衰退). She said a polite “no”.

That didn’t stop me. I Googled the measurements for a keyboard, drew the keys on a piece of paper and stuck it on my desk. I would click notes on an online keyboard and “play” them back on my paper one - keeping the sound they made on the computer in my head. I spent six months playing without touching a real piano. Once my mom saw that I was serious, she borrowed money and bought me 10 lessons.

I still remember the first one. I was struck by how real the sound of the piano was. I sat my grade one after eight lessons. Once I started secondary school, we couldn’t afford lessons again. I passed grade three, then grade five, practicing only on my piece of paper.

One evening, when I was about 13, my mom said she had a surprise for me; it was an electronic keyboard, bought with more borrowed money. It was the first time I’d played for her. She was in shock.

My school didn’t offer music A-level. I found the Purcell School for young musicians. The tryouts were difficult. Some of the questions involved an estimation (评价) of the composer or when it was written. I felt overwhelmed. To my amazement I was offered a place.

At Purcell, I spent two years working as hard as I could. I performed to raise money and saved enough to buy my first piano.

When I left Purcell, I was awarded the senior piano prize and senior academic music prize. I am now at the Guildhall School in London. I feel proud: it’s been 10 years since I drew my paper piano, and I’m at one of the world’s leading music schools.

The irony is that I continue to do a lot of my practice away from the piano: what we call mental practice. The paper piano helped spark my curiosity about how music works, the building blocks that form the pieces.

【1】Why did the author’s mom buy him lessons at last?

A.She suddenly made a fortune. B.She had no doubt of his talent for piano.

C.She realized he meant what he said. D.She was shocked by his first performance.

【2】Which of the following can best describe the author?

A.honest and practical. B.determined and hardworking.

C.humorous and reliable. D.rebellious and pessimistic.

【3】The word “irony” in the last paragraph shows that the author was _______.

A.surprised B.absurd

C.satisfied D.curious

【4】What’s the author’s main purpose of writing this article?

A.To introduce the method of mental practice.

B.To share how he convinced his mom to buy a piano.

C.To encourage people to stick to their dreams.

D.To describe how costly it is to learn an instrument.

22、My husband is more a kid at heart than I am, so he says we need to find souvenirs for the grandkids while on a trip to Savannah.

I can be a kid at heart, too, but I also can be a mathematician — and even cheap, ugly souvenirs add up quickly when you have 11 grandkids.

Children are of one mind on the subject — they like souvenirs and they want them. So we are digging through piles of (成堆的) cheap key fobs (钥匙链), plastic sun hats, chocolate treats that will melt in the heat, and ridiculous T-shirts, finding nothing.

We go with two hats for the boys but are still empty-handed for the nine girls. Then I spot small bracelets (手链) in a rainbow of colors.

“What about these? ” I ask the husband.

He turns one over a couple of times and says, “Nice.”

The bracelets are made of small beads (珠子) shaped like starfish and turtles. They all look like rock candy, which can be eaten and was a popular souvenir when we were kids. We buy nine and make a mental note: tell the girls not to eat them.

As the clerk rings up the bracelets, I remember a souvenir I had as a girl. We had gone to the east coast and could choose one thing in a shop to remember our trip by. My sister and I chose what we liked. Mine was a blue plastic soapbox with the lid (盖子) covered in silver glitter (小闪光物) and topped with a pink flamingo (火烈鸟). It was cheap and tacky (俗气的) and I believed it was the loveliest thing a girl could own. It was too beautiful to put soap inside, so it sat in a dresser drawer year after year, slowly aging, yellowing, the glitter fling off. But it is still a reminder of a family trip long ago.

The girls are married and have families of their own, and those souvenirs are still in the dresser drawers in their old bedrooms.

I have been won over to the idea that even cheap and tacky souvenirs may have worth and value. Tiny trinkets (小饰品) say I was thinking of you even though we were apart. That’s always a good investment (投资).

【1】What did the author think about his husband, when he wanted to buy souvenirs?

A．He wanted to remember the trip.

B．He missed their grandkids.

C．He wanted to share the joy.

D．He was a little childish.

【2】Why did the author say she was a mathematician?

A．Because she found it expensive to buy 11 souvenirs.

B．Because she was good at choosing souvenirs for kids.

C．Because she ever studied mathematics in university.

D．Because their family was not rich enough to buy souvenirs.

【3】What souvenirs did they buy for the grandkids?

A．Some cheap and ordinary souvenirs.

B．Some small bracelets made of beads.

C．Some rock candy which can be eate

D．A blue plastic soapbox with a beautiful lid.

【4】What did the souvenirs for the girls remind the author of?

A．A trip she ever had with her family.

B．A blue plastic soapbox bought by her mother.

C．A cheap but the loveliest souvenir she ever had.

D．A trip when she met her husband and fell in love.

【5】What did the author think of the souvenir?

A．Even cheap and small souvenirs can be reminders of our family trip.

B．Children are all crazy about buying and collecting souvenirs.

C．Collecting souvenirs may bring in a big sum of money.

D．Buying souvenirs can help you be a kid forever.

24、Have you ever gazed at a test question and wondered where on earth it came from? You’re just certain the teacher has never covered the information, because it isn’t in your notes. 【1】 And furthermore, they got the question right.

【2】 It is a common frustration. Very few people can write fast enough or can concentrate long enough to record everything the teacher says.

As you can imagine, college lectures can be much longer and more detailed than the lectures you receive in high school. For this reason, many college students deal with the potential problem of missing critical information by developing a personalized form of shorthand (速记).

【3】 You don’t have to learn a squiggly-line (潦草书写的) language. You simply come up with a set of symbols or abbreviations (缩写) for common words that you find in lectures.

Developing shortcuts in your writing is not a new idea, of course. The trick is to develop a good system and to do it well. 【4】 Try these tips:

★Develop a list of the most commonly used words and make shortcuts for them.

★Practice your course-specific shorthand at the beginning of the term when your text is still new and you’ re curious and excited about the information. Find a few interesting passages and practice writing them in shorthand

★If possible, find a study partner to read the passages to you. 【5】

★ Time yourself for each passage you practice. Pretty soon you’ll start to build up speed.

A．To do that, you have to practice.

B．Find the common terms for the passage.

C．We miss things when we take class notes

D．Look through the textbooks for each course

E．That sounds much more complicated than it really is.

F．You can get the real experience of taking notes during a lecture in this way

G．Then, you discover that some of your classmates did record the information in their notes

25、There are many things parents can do to help children with autism（自闭症）overcome their challenges. Learning all you can about autism and getting ________ in treatment will go a long way toward helping your child. Additional, the following tips will make daily home life easier for both you and your autistic child:

Be consistent（一致的）. Children with autism have a hard time ________ what they’ve learned if there is a change of setting. For example, your child may use sign language at school to communicate, but never think to do so at home. Creating ________ in your child’s environment is the best way to reinforce learning. Find out what your child’s therapists are doing and continue their techniques at home. Explore the ________ of having therapy take place in more than one place in order to encourage your child to ________ what he or she has learned from one environment to another. It’s also important to be consistent in the way you ________ with your child and deal with challenging behaviors.

________ a schedule. Children with autism tend to do best when they have a highly-structured schedule or routine. Again, this goes back to the consistency they both need and crave. Set up a schedule for your child, with ________ times for meals, therapy, school, and bedtime. Try to keep disturbance to this routine to a ________. If there is an unavoidable schedule change, prepare your child for it ________.

________ good behavior. Positive reinforcement can go a long way with children with autism, so make an effort to “catch them doing something good.” Praise them when they act appropriately or learn a new skill, being very ________ about what behavior they’re being praised for.

Pay attention to your child’s sensory sensitivities. Many children with autism are hypersensitive to light, sound, touch, taste, and smell. Other children with autism are “under-sensitive” to sensory stimuli. ________ what sights, sounds, smell and movements cause your kid’s “bad” or disruptive behaviors and what brings about a(n) ________ response.
