21、Did you have an experience to achieve something really amazing in life? Well, Greg Mortenson wanted to climb a mountain, but he ended up helping thousands of people to have a better life.

Greg’s story began with failure. In 1993, he set out to climb K2, the world’s second highest mountain. But Greg never made it to the top. After five days, he stumbled (踉跄) into the village of Korphe in northern Pakistan, injured (受伤) and hungry. The kind villagers there looked after him for several days.

Greg saw that the villagers were very poor and hungry, and some of them were ill. Also, the village school didn’t have a roof (屋顶) and the children wrote on the ground with sticks. Greg knew he wanted to do something to help. “I’ll build you a school,” he told the villagers. “I promise.”

Greg went back home to the USA to raise money for the school. He even lived in the car to save money! Finally he went back to Korphe and built the school. But this was just the beginning of something bigger! Later, Greg’s organization has built around 80 schools and runs many others in Pakistan and other countries too.

He does many other things to help people in poor countries. He has got many prizes, but it’s the smiles of the children he has helped that make him happy!

Greg wrote a best-selling book about his story called Three Cups of Tea. It’s an interesting and exciting book which tells us what ordinary (普通的) people can do with courage and determination (决心)!

22、

Zheng He was an amazing man. He was born in 1371. Eleven years later, he was caught by the army of a rich young man called Zhu Di and made to work for him. Over time the rich man saw that Zheng He was very clever and strong and they became close friends. In 1403 Zhu Di was made the King of China and he asked Zheng He to join his government.

The King wanted to learn more about the world and show other countries his power. He ordered many new ships to be built and made Zheng He their leader between 1405 and 1433. Zheng He led seven sea trips to different parts of the world. He certainly travelled to India, Africa and the Middle East. A few people think his ships have even reached South America and Australia.

Each trip lasted between two and four years and it is believed he sailed more than 50,000 kilometers during the years of his travels. Zheng He led a fleet with 28,000 men and over 300 ships, such as boats for food, water and even soldiers’ horses.

On these trips he brought with him many Chinese goods like silk and medicine to give to foreign kings or to sell for local goods. He returned from each trip with boats filled with expensive things such as gold and treasures, foreign guests and strange animals like a giraffe.

It is a pity that we may never learn everything about Zheng He’s travels. The Columbus(哥伦布) of the east, Zheng He, died in 1433. After that, the new king, had these trips stopped and he burned almost all the books about Zheng He’s travels, because he believed the trips were unlucky and too expensive. It is only in the last 50 years that historians have begun to carefully study the adventures of great Zheng He.

【1】Why did Zhu Di want Zheng He to sail to many different countries?

A．To learn more about the world.

B．To bring new countries under the control of China.

C．To show other countries his power.

D．Both A and C.

【2】What do we know about Zheng He from the passage?

A．He travelled to India and Africa.

B．Each trip lasted six years.

C．When he died, he was 72 years old.

D．He was a great king.

【3】What’s the best title of this passage?

A．The King’s Seven Sea Trips

B．Zheng He’s Travels to Western Countries

C．Zheng He, the Columbus of the East

D．Zhu Di, the Great King

How Can You Fight colds?

People usually catch a cold in the spring time and fall. It makes us question: if scientists can send a man to the moon, why can’t they find a treatment for the common cold? The answer is easy. There are hundreds of kinds of cold viruses(病毒) out there. You never know which one you will get, so there isn’t a treatment for each one.

When a virus attacks your body, your body works hard to get rid of it. Blood(血液) rushes into your nose and brings congestion(堵塞) with it. You feel terrible because you can’t breathe well, but in fact your body is “eating” the virus. Your temperature rises and you get a fever, but the heat(高温) of your body is beating the virus. You might also have a runny nose to stop the virus from getting to your cells(细胞). You may feel awful, but in fact your wonderful body is doing everything it can to beat the cold.

Different people have different ways to fight colds. In Canada and some other countries, for example, people might eat chicken soup to feel better. Some people take hot baths and drink warm drinks. Other people take medicines to stop the fever, congestion and runny nose.

There is one interesting thing to note — some scientists believe that taking medicines when you have a cold is really bad for you. We know that bodies can do a great job on their own. Taking medicine can make the virus stay in you longer because your body doesn’t have a way to fight it and beat it. There is a joke on taking medicine when you have a cold. It goes like this: It takes about 1 week to get over a cold if you don’t take medicine, but only 7 days to get over a cold if you take medicine.

【1】When having a cold, your body can eat the virus while ________ .

A.having congestion in the nose B.taking enough medicines

C.going to see a doctor D.drinking cold drinks

【2】According to the passage, the writer may agree that ________ .

A.eating chicken soup is the best way to treat colds in Canada

B.the virus will stay in your body shorter if you take medicine

C.having a runny nose means your cold is getting more and more serious

D.feeling bad while having a cold probably means your body is doing a good job

【3】The joke at the end of the passage means taking medicine ________.

A.is better than not taking it B.is really bad for your health

C.needs longer time to get well D.is the same with no medicine

24、

【1】Besides (除了) your picture, you must write about ________.
