21、

There is a town near Suzhou. It is very interesting and beautiful. This is Luxiang, an old town. Luxiang was built in the Southern Song dynasty(1127~1279). There were many famous people living in the town at that time.

There are around 30 old buildings of Ming and Qing(1368~1912) dynasties now. People live a simple life. Six lanes(巷) in the town go to Taihu Lake.

Luxiang looks more beautiful in spring, with many tea trees and orchards(果园). This place is famous for the tea called Biluocun.

The Egyptian pyramids were built around 2560 B.C. The largest one of them is the Great Pyramid of Khufu. The King Khufu built it as his tomb.

The Great Pyramid was considered a unique(独特的) building in the 19th century A.D. At that time, it was still the tallest construction(建筑物) in the world. According to scientific research, Khufu ordered his men to build it stone by stone. The biggest stone was over 15 tons, and each stone was fixed so well.

The Great Pyramid has four sides and each side is about 230.4 metres long and 146.59 metres high. At that time, there were no modern machines or equipment, so how did the ancient Egyptians build? To this day, it is still a mystery.

22、Flow like the river of change

Little stream ran down from a high mountain through many villages and forests. Then it reached a desert. “I went through so many difficulties. I should have no problem crossing the desert,” she thought. As she started, she found herself slowly disappearing into the sand. After many tries, she still failed. “Maybe I can’t reach the ocean,” she said sadly to herself. 

At this time, a deep voice said, “If a breeze(微风) can cross the desert, so can a river.” It was the voice of the desert. But the little stream answered, ‘‘That’s because a breeze can fly, but I cannot.” 

“That’s because you can’t give up what you are. Let yourself evaporate(蒸发) into the breeze, and it can take you across,” said the desert. “Give up what I am now? No! No!” The little stream could not accept this idea. “The breeze can carry the vapor(蒸汽) across the desert and let it leave as rain. The rain will form a river again,” said the desert. “And whether you’re a river or vapor, your nature never changes.” Hearing this, the little stream went into the open arms of the breeze. It carried her to the next stage of her life. 

The course of our lives is like the experience of the little stream. If you want to go through difficulties in your life to head for success, you should also change the way you are.

A.The road to success is not always easy and smooth.

B.Whatever others say, we should always be ourselves.

C.To succeed, we should change the way we are if necessary.

D.We may experience difficulty in life just like the little stream.

23、It happened on a snowy January morning. Thomas was walking his dog, Mica, in the park.

“As I was walking, I just saw Mica running onto the ice towards the ducks in the middle of the lake,” said Thomas. “And then he fell into the water and couldn’t get out.”

He thought he had to try and save his dog. “I had to break my way through the ice,” Thomas said. “Finally, I got Mica by the neck and pulled him out. I don’t think I have ever felt so cold in my life. And when we got back on the dry land, everyone was asking if Mica was OK— no one was even worried about me!”

His neighbour Julie saw the whole thing. “The dog went onto an icy lake. All of a sudden, it started to go under,” Julie said. “Before I knew it, Thomas was already in the icy water. I can’t imagine(想象)how cold it was. Everyone was nervous(紧张), but he stayed very cool—he just made his way back out, put the dog on its leash(牵引绳)and went home.”

Many people thought Thomas was a hero, but he didn’t want to make a big deal out of it.
