21、Join the Roller Coaster Club!

You’re sitting in a tiny car. The car is part of a very small train that runs on a narrow track. Slowly, the little train climbs to the top of a huge hill.

You’re high above the ground, so high that you can see for miles. Suddenly, you rush toward the ground at a speed that takes your breath away. You’re on your way up again, and this time you’re upside down!

You go up, down, and around. You’re on a roller coaster (过山车). Some people think riding a roller coaster is really terrifying. One ride is more than enough for them, even in a lifetime. However, other people love riding roller coasters. They ride their favorite roller coaster over and over. They also like to try out new roller coaster.

There’s a club for people who are very crazy at riding roller coasters. It’s called ACE. ACE is a short form for American Coaster Enthusiasts (热衷者). Steven Reagan and Kevin Lipnicky belong to ACE, and so do their families. Their family holidays often include trips to amusement parks to ride on new roller coasters.

As members of ACE, the boys were among the first to ride a new roller coaster at Sea World in Texas. It’s called the Great White, which is the name of a kind of shark.

Sometimes, amusement parks close the roller coaster to everyone except ACE members.

“If there’s no one in line,” says Steven, “we keep our seats and ride again!”

It’s not all fun for ACE members. They also have a job to do. They tell owners of new amusement parks where the old roller coasters are. The owners buy the old roller coasters and move them to new homes so that they can be fixed instead of being destroyed (毁坏).

For ACE members, roller coaster riding is fun, fun, fun! People are thankful to the work they do to save different old roller coasters.

22、   Once upon a time, a fox was walking along a road. He saw some beautiful grapes hanging over a high wall. He stopped to look at the grapes. They looked nice to eat. The fox wanted to eat the grapes very much, but he couldn’t reach them. So he jumped as high as he could. Sometimes his nose touched a grape, but his mouth could not reach it. The fox jumped and jumped until he was very tired.

Finally he stopped jumping and walked away with his nose held high. He said, “I don’t need those grapes. They look nice but I’m sure they are sour.”

In our daily life, when people can’t get something they want, they may say, “The grapes are sour.”

23、Many musicians meet and form (组成) a band because they like to write and play their own music. They may start as a group of high school students and practice their music in someone’s house. Sometimes they may play to passers-by in the street or subway so that they can get some money for themselves or pay for their instruments (乐器).

However, there was one band that started in a different way. It was called the Monkees and was formed in 1965. It began as a TV show. The TV show had planned to find four rock musicians who could act as well as sing. But they could only find one who was good enough. They had to use actors for the other three members of the band.

Since some of these actors could not sing well enough, they had to ask for help from other musicians. So at first, the band just pretended (假装) to sing. Anyway, their performances were excellent and they got lots of fans. Each week on TV, the Monkees would pretend to play and sing songs written by other musicians. After a year or so, they became more serious about their work. They started to play and sing their own songs like a real band. Then they produced (制作) their own records and started touring and playing their own music. In the USA they became even more influential and popular than the Beatles and sold even more records.

However, the band broke up around 1970, but happily they reunited (重聚) in the 1980s. They produced a new record in 1996 to celebrate their time as a band. It was very successful. Today the Monkees are still making music for their millions of fans.

24、[素材选自21st CENTURY READING Book 1]

穿着的重要性

We often worry about what others will think of us because of our clothes. But researchers are beginning to think that our clothing has a powerful effect on how we see ourselves.

Scientists Adam Galinsky and Hajo Adams report that there is science behind our style. In their research, Galinsky and Adams had some participants wear white coats similar to the ones scientists or doctors wear. Other participants wore their normal clothes. In the experiment, participants saw cards with different­colored words on them. They had to say the color of the word they saw. The people wearing the white coats said the correct color more often. They think that the white coats made the participants feel more confident and careful.

Fashion blogger Jessica Quirk believes that our clothes greatly affect how we feel about ourselves. She says that people should pay more attention to what they wear. For example, we should choose a look that makes us feel more creative and happy. One way to do this at work is to “dress up for the exciting job we want.” Another way is to wear special clothes that means something to us. For example, Quirk wears one pair of shoes to all her important meetings. They are her “lucky” shoes.

Our clothes are “like our second skin.” The clothes we wear can affect our behavior. They can also tell the world something about us.

【1】What does the underlined word “participants” mean in Chinese?

A.参与者 B.调研者

C.科研者 D.普通市民

【2】Which is the right order of the research?

a. Participants looked at the words each written in a different color.

b. The researches counted the correct items.

c. The participants said the colors, not the words.

d. The researchers gave some participants white coats to wear.

A.d→c→a→b B.d→a→c→b

C.b→a→c→d D.b→c→a→d

【3】If your friend likes wearing white clothes, he may be ________.

A.handsome and tidy

B.confident and careful

C.powerful and rich

D.hard­working and strict

【4】When does Quirk wear her “lucky” shoes?

A.When she meets her good friends.

C.When she attends important meetings.

D.When she goes shopping.

【5】What does the text mainly tell us?
