21、   Once upon a time, a hippo(河马) lived in a river next to a big tree.

One day, a bird came and nested(筑巢) in the tree. The songs of the bird filled the hippo with so much envy(羡慕) that he couldn't think of anything else. Every day he would think why he wasn't born to be a bird even though the bird told him many times he was so lucky to be so big and such a good swimmer.

Finally, the hippo made up his mind that he would come out of the river, climb the tree, and start singing. However, when he tried to climb the tree, it was very clear that the hippo didn't have wings, no claws to climb with.

Realizing that he would never climb up the tree, he angrily hit the tree until it came crashing to the ground. Then he stepped onto the leaves of the fallen tree, and began singing.

Unfortunately, hippos can't sing, either. All that came from his mouth were terrible noises, and when the other animals heard this, they all came around to make fun of the hippo.

23、

Young people can have problems with their minds. Some students become worried because they have to study very hard. Others have trouble getting on well with people like their parents and classmates.

Liu Wei, a junior 2 student from Hefei, could not understand his teacher and was doing badly in his lessons. He became so worried about it that he started to cut his finger with a knife.

Another student, 14-year-old Yang Fang from Guangzhou, was afraid of exams. She got very worried when she looked at the exam paper. She couldn’t think of anything to write.

A recent report from Jiefang Daily says about 18% of Shanghai teenagers have mental(心理的) problems. Their troubles include(包括) being worried and very unhappy. And they have problems in learning and getting on with people. Many students who have problems won’t ask others for advice(劝告)or help. Some think they will look stupid(愚蠢的)if they go to see a doctor. Others don’t want to talk about their secret.

Liang Yuezhu, an expert on teenagers from Beijing Anding Hospital has the following advice for teenagers:

* Talk to your parents or teachers often.

* Take part in group activities and play sports.

* Go to see a doctor if you feel unhappy or unwell.

24、Tara: Nicole, I have a problem.

Nicole: What kind of problem?

Tara: I have a job interview tomorrow, and I heard that the boss will ask to see my Facebook profile. I’m not comfortable with that.

Nicole: That’s illegal in some countries, like Canada. Can you refuse?

Tara: I want to, but I’m afraid that if I do, I won’t get the job!

Nicole: I guess I see the boss’s point. Looking at a candidate’s Facebook page will tell him a lot about the person’s life and personality.

Tara: That’s true. Most of my life is on Facebook. My profile could tell him about my hobbies, my interests and what my friends think of me. I find the idea of showing a boss that much personal information disturbing.

Nicole: Companies run background checks on possible employees all the time. And this is just another way for him to see if you’re trustworthy. Besides, I’ve seen your Facebook page, and you don’t have anything to hide.

Tara: Maybe not, but my friends might still post things on my Facebook page that make me look bad.

Nicole: I think the boss will probably realize the differences between your posts and your friends’ posts.

Tara: He might, but I’m also worried that something the boss sees on Facebook could be misleading. For example, I wore a really crazy costume to my friend’s party last week. I wouldn’t want him to think I always do strange things like that.

Nicole: Yeah, but I don’t think the boss would assume that one picture shows how you always act. I’m sure he’ll be pretty cautious about drawing conclusions too quickly based on Facebook.

【1】How does Tara find the idea of showing a boss that much personal information?

A．She thinks it great trouble.

B．She has decided to refuse it.

C．She is quite pleased with it.

D．She has no idea of it.

【2】What does Nicole want to express by saying “I guess I get the boss’s point”?

A．Nicole wants to help Tara get more reasons why the boss did so.

B．Nicole has just understood the boss’s real purpose.

C．Nicole would like to be a friend indeed.

D．Nicole will check Tara’s personal information for the boss.

【3】How can we understand the word “candidate’s”?

A．a person that has won something

B．a person who has long experience

C．a person with a record of failing

D．a person who is running for a position
