21、   There is no one like you in the world. So you should learn to be happy with yourself.

As we all know, nobody is perfect. So if you are not the most beautiful or the smartest person, that’s OK. If you do feel there is room for improving, then try your best to make some changes. If you have tried your best but still aren’t content, ask yourself two simple questions. First, are you happy with who you are? If the answer is yes, then there is nothing to worry about. If you are OK with yourself and you have done your best in everything, you should be content. Second, have you given yourself enough time to improve? You know improving takes time.

Self-confidence(自信) is also very important. If you’re confident, you will be OK with the way you are. However, here is some advice if you are not confident. First, find out your talents and try to use them. Second, don’t always compare yourself with others. Third, forgive (原谅) yourself for some mistakes you may have made.

22、Years ago, if a teenager had some problems in his life, he might write them in his diary. Now he might get on the Internet and write them in his blog(博客). In many ways, a diary and a blog are almost the same. Then, what makes a blog different from a diary?

The biggest difference is that a blog is much more public than a diary. Anyone can read what you write in your blog. Usually, a teenager likes hiding his diary book and treats it as a secret. If you are not satisfied with a friend and write something bad about him in your diary, he will never know it. However, if you do this on the Internet, that friend may read your blog and get angry. So we have to be careful of what we write.

A blog has good points, of course. People choose to write in blogs. They know that their friends will read what they write. If you feel sad one day and write in your diary, no one will know about it. If you write the same words in your blog, your friends may quickly write back to comfort you and offer their help. Blogs help people know what their friends are doing.

Though it's a good way to write blogs about everyday life, I still prefer my old diary.

【1】Now when a teenager has some problems in his life, he might________．

A．talk to his friends

B．keep them in his diary

C．write them in his blog

D．keep them in secret

【2】________ is NOT mentioned in the passage.

A．Chatting on QQ

B．Getting on the Internet

C．Writing blogs

D．The difference between a diary and a blog

【3】The underlined word “comfort” means “________” in Chinese.

A．责怪

B．安慰

C．嘲笑

D．贬低

【4】From the passage we know that ________．

A．the writer thinks a blog is more helpful than a diary

B．the writer thinks a blog and a diary are the same

C．the writer likes a diary better than a blog

D．the writer likes a blog better than a diary

【5】The passage mainly talks about________．

A．the teenagers' problems in their lives

B．the difference between a diary and a blog

C．the good points of writing blogs

D．the good points of writing diaries

24、Life has changed quickly since COVID-19 broke out worldwide. Many people find themselves isolated（隔绝的）at home, bored and lonely. But if we look at history, we see many great people produced their best work when they were alone.

Albert Einstein, Isaac Newton, and James Clerk Maxwell, three of the greatest physicists in history, worked by themselves most of the time. They learned from others not by working with them directly, but by reading their papers and books. Here is another example.

Coming back to the present, do you know “the Reader in Fang Cang”? The picture of him reading in bed in the newly-built makeshift（临时）hospital in Wuhan really touched people. “When you feel worried and sad, reading is a way to help you feel relaxed and comfortable. This picture of him reading in bed gives me courage and hope.” said one Weibo user.

2020 is a special year. People all over the world have to fight against COVID-19. This special period helps us think more deeply about ourselves and our environment, which leads to even greater creativity.
