21、   Whenever the sun dropped and the blue sky came up, my father and I used to climb the mountain near my house. Walking together, my father and I used to have a lot of conversations through which I learned lessons from his experiences. He always told me, “You should have goals like climbing the mountain.” Without the mountain-climbing that we both enjoyed, we couldn’t have enough time to spend together because my father was very busy. I really got a lot from the mountain-climbing. It gave me time to talk with my father and to be in deep thought as well as develop my patience.

Once we climbed a very high mountain. It was so challenging for me because I was only ten years old. During the first few hours of climbing, I enjoyed the flowers and trees, and the birds’ singing. But as time passed, I got a pain in both of my legs. I wanted to stop climbing, but my father said to me, “You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain, but you can’t see it before you reach the top. Only there can you see all of the nice things, which is just like your life.”

At that time, I was too young to understand his words. But later after that, I got to know the meaning of hope in life. I found myself standing at the top of the mountain, and the sky was as clear as crystal（水晶）.

22、   It was a windy night. The taxi driver didn’t take even one passenger all day. When he went by the train station, he saw a young man coming out with two bags in his hands. So he drove to him and asked, “Where are you going, sir？”

“To the MP Hotel,” the young man answered. When the taxi driver heard this，he didn’t feel happy any more. The young man would give him only three dollars because the hotel was near the train station. But suddenly, he had an idea. He took the young man through many streets of the big city. In thirty minutes, they arrived at the hotel. “Here we are! You should pay me seventeen dollars, please,” the taxi driver said to the young man. “What? Seventeen dollars! Do you think I’m a fool?

24、Kalie missed school but she couldn’t go. She felt tired. Her throat was really sore and her nose kept running. Kalie sat on the sofa, wrapped up in a quilt. She just couldn’t get warm! “You feel hot. A flu virus (病毒) must have caught you!” said Kalie’s mom as she felt Kalie’s forehead. “A flu what?” “A flu virus. It’s so small that you can’t even see it!” “But how could something so small make me sick?” “Well, good question. Once a virus gets into your body, it finds a cell. It forces that cell to make more of the virus. As more and more of the virus is made, it spreads throughout your body.” “And that makes me ill?” “Kind of. The things you feel, like your fever, your runny nose…that’s your body fighting off the virus!”

“You need to drink more water when you have the flu.” Kalie drank some of her hot tea. “So, there’s a fight going on inside me?” “Yes,” said her mom. “And you’re doing two of the best things you can do. Drink clear water and rest!”

“I texted Sonja. She says that some other kids in our class got the flu, too. But not her. She got a vaccine (疫苗). Is that true, Mom?” “Oh, yes. A vaccine gives you a tiny bit of the virus, not enough to make you sick, but just enough to allow your body to know the virus and learn how to protect itself.”

“So if I got a vaccine, I wouldn’t get the flu?” “That’s right,” Kalie’s mom stopped. She looked sad. “Sorry, we didn’t get the vaccine this year. But we will for sure next year!”

B．The flu virus could make us feel uncomfortable.

C．Kalie had a sore throat, a running nose and a fever because of the flu.

D．After the flu vaccine gets into our body, it makes the cell make a great deal of virus.

【3】Why did Kalie’s mother feel sad at last?

A．Because she was very worried about Kalie’s illness.

B．Because she didn’t know how to make Kalie feel better.

C．Because she didn’t vaccinate Kalie earlier.

D．Because she didn’t have enough money to treat Kalie.

Many students ask for advice about improving their English. There are three basic questions.

The first question is about real English. Li Hao from Hubei wrote, "I enjoy w【1】 English films on TV and listening to real English songs. But it takes a long time. What do you think?"

This is a great way to learn English! Talk about the film or song with your friends, and guess the m【2】 of the new words. Just enjoy yourself!

The second question is about speaking. Sam, from Suzhou wrote, "Our school has a f【3】teacher. But I'm shy and can't speak to her. What should I do?"

When I visit China, lots of people in the street say, "Hello! How are you? Where are you from? Do you like China?" These are good questions to s【4】 a conversation. Many people are shy when they speak English, so before you begin, take a deep breath and smile! Smiling always helps.

The third question is about vocabulary. Olive, from Anhui wrote, "I want to remember all the new words. I wrote them down, but I forget them q【5】, What should I do?"

Try to remember eight or nine words a day. Write them on p【6】 of paper and place them in your bedroom. Say the words when you see them, and change them every day.

And when you're shopping, h【7】 about counting the English words, or saying the English names for everything you see?

Maybe it's a little difficult, but if you try your best to do it every day, you will be successful at last.
