22、Mother's Day is traditionally a day for flowers, chocolates and big hugs, when children will have a chance to let their mother feel their love, but Willow Smith did something different for her mom Jada Pinkett Smith. Willow got her mom's metal band back together and stepped into her mom's shoes, giving a special live performance.

Jada Pinkett Smith was the singer of Wicked Wisdom, which she formed in 2002 alongside Honore, Graves, Rio Lawrence and Philip Fisher.

Willow remembered travelling somewhere with her mother on tour with her metal band Wicked Wisdom and watching old home videos, including one where she and her brother Jaden Smith cleaned the outside of the tour bus. “This is the music that I grew up around. My mother was a superwoman. She was a rock star; she was a fighter all in one. So I was my mom's biggest fan," said Willow.

To show her respect for the woman, the 20-year-old star followed in her mother's legendary footsteps and performed one of her favorite Wicked Wisdom songs, Bleed All Over Me, with Jada's band members, including guitarist Pocket Honore and keyboardist Taylor Graves.

Willow brought Jada out from the living room, and then Jada was sent to the driveway safely where the performance was held. The great mother who could always face anything calmly could no longer control her tears when she saw that her own song was being sung by her daughter. Willow and Jada shared a tearful hug for the touching closer.

23、Why Do People Really Use Facebook

In an online world, people are constantly searching for newer ways of communication. Facebook is an important part of online social media that supports communication in various ways. Out of all social media platforms, Facebook is the most used platform by millions of people across the world. 【1】

24、We’ve all been there－accidently distanced a new co-worker with a bad joke, or failed to impress the new boss with our first task. You might have been off your game because of a recent failure, but your new co-workers are likely to think that your poor performance is one of your basic characteristics. However, it’s not impossible to change how others view you.

Your co-workers may have built up a certain impression of you－that you’re not leadership material because you’re too quiet, for example. You can’t expect to overturn that thinking with small actions. You need to do something unexpected. If you’ve made them think you’re quiet and never speak up, it won’t be enough to talk once in a meeting. Instead, make a point of being the first person to speak. If your co-workers have to ask themselves, “What got into him?” then you’re on the way to beginning to change their views.

My first impression of Matthew, an employee of mine, was that he was a bit lazy at work. Realizing that I was increasingly unimpressed with him, he made a move. He suggested that we get to know each other better by going to a rock climbing gym－an activity at which he was very experienced, and I was a beginner. His great skills showed me a different side to his abilities.

Sometimes the bad impression your co-workers may have formed has nothing to do with you. Ten years ago, I met a woman at a meeting. Today, we’re close friends. But, she said that she hadn’t liked me at first. She thought I seemed “too positive”－and therefore somewhat fake. It was only after knowing me for years that she realized that was in fact how I was. If you’re patient and continue to act in ways you’re proud of, most people will finally come around.

It’s unfair when we feel misunderstood. But while first impressions are likely to stick, they can－with time and effort－be changed, so that your true talents can be appreciated.

【1】What does the underlined phrase “off your game” in the first paragraph probably mean?

A．Beaten in a sport.

B．Lost in your computer game.

C．Unwilling to accept a new friend.

D．Unable to work as well as usual.

【2】How can we change others’ impressions of us according to paragraph 2?

A．By surprising them.

B．By keeping quiet.

C．By questioning them.

D．By organizing meetings.

【3】Why did Matthew ask the author to go rock climbing with him?

A．To explore new job chances.

B．To show off his climbing skills.

C．To get the author to know him better.

D．To push the author to exercise more.

【4】What did the woman think of the author at first?

A．Brave.

B．Insincere.

C．Friendly.

D．Impatient.
