21、It was the first day of third grade. Samuel sat in the classroom and he already knew most of the students in his class.

In the back of the classroom was a face that Samuel didn’t know. There sat a boy with dark hair and glasses.

Mr Dale called the students by their names. “Ho Ming?” said Mr Dale. The boy in the back put up his hand. Ho Ming was from China. His family moved to the United States during the summer. Ho Ming seemed shy.

Samuel tried to talk to Ho Ming, but he only smiled. Finally, Samuel understood the problem. This country was new to Ho Ming. Maybe the language was new to him too.

That night Samuel asked his mum for help. Together they looked up some Chinese words on the Internet. Mum helped Samuel pronounce (发音) the words over and over again.

The next morning Samuel went to talk to Ho Ming. Then he stopped. He was afraid he would say something wrong. He was afraid he would sound silly. “This must be how Ho Ming feels,” he thought.

“Hello,” he said, using the Chinese word she learned. “I am your friend.”

Ho Ming looked surprised. He answered Samuel in Chinese. Samuel had no idea what Ho Ming was saying.

“My English is not too good yet,” explained Ho Ming.

“Neither is my Chinese,” said Samuel.

“I will teach you,” offered Ho Ming.

“And I will teach you,” said Samuel.

Samuel took a ball out of his bag. “Want to play?” he asked.

22、When you cough or sneeze, please turn your head away from others and cover your mouth with the full part of your hand. Afterwards, you should say,” Excuse me.” This is a rule I set for my students

It is so simple, but many kinds have never been told to do this. In fact, I notice adults cough and sneeze in public without putting a hand over the mouth. I hate traveling by subway(地铁) in New York during cold and flu season, because it is certain that someone is going to stand right behind me and cough or sneeze on my neck.

One important thing I point out to the kids is that after they sneeze or cough on their hand, they should wash their hands as soon as possible. Otherwise, they will be passing those germs(病菌) along to everything and everyone they touch.

In order to help the kids remember this rule, I tell them about an old story. It says that when you sneeze, evil spirits jump into your body. If you don’t cover your mouth, the spirits will enter, but if you cover your mouth, you will keep them out, We say “God bless you” when someone sneezes, and in Germany you should say “Gesundheit”. That means “Good health to you. “ Both expressions are said just in case you didn’t cover your mouth in time and the spirits were able to enter your body. The kids love finding out the origins(起源) of these expressions and it encourage them to put the advice to use more often.

【1】The writer of this article must be _______ .

A．a reporter

B．a teacher

C．a doctor

D．an officer

【2】What does the underline word ‘this” mean?

A．Don’t cough or sneeze in front of people.

B．Don’t stand beside someone who coughs or sneezes.

C．Many people cough or sneeze on the underground train.

D．Cover your mouth when coughing or sneezing and say sorry.

【3】After coughing or sneezing on their hand, students are advised to _______.

A．say “God bless you”

B．wash their hands as soon as possible

C．go to see a doctor as soon as possible

D．go home and have a good rest

【4】According to the article, the writer would like the kids _______.

A．to be polite to adults

D．to do well in exams

23、   Have you been asked for money by some disabled beggars(乞丐) while you’re enjoying shopping? Do you have any pity on(同情) them who are so poor and lonely or do you just feel afraid of their terrible shapes? As one of the most special groups, disabled people’s living conditions(条件)—not only their material(物质的) conditions, but their mental(精神的) world, really need improvement. The treatment for disabled people should go like this: First, don’t look down upon them. Don’t be afraid of looking at the terrible shapes of the disabled. Try to treat them equally. Because they are a part of society(社会), we can’t discard(抛弃) them. The second is to help them as much as we could. If you can be a volunteer and do some work for disabled people, that would be very nice. That does help not only to the disabled people but also to yourself because you will feel good after your kind action. If every one of us gives a little love, the world will become a beautiful wonderland!

A.disabled people are poor, but they are happy
