21、I didn't cry when I learned I was the parent of a mentally handicapped child. I just sat still and didn't say anything.

When Kristi was old enough, we sent her to a kindergarten. It would have been comforting to cry the day I left her in that room full of kids. Kristi had spent hour upon hour playing by herself, but this moment, when she was the "different" child among them, she was probably the loneliest.

However, positive things began to happen to Kristi in her school, and to her schoolmates, too. Kristi's classmates always took pains to praise her: "Kristi got all her spelling words right today." No one bothered to add that her spelling list was easier than anyone else's.

Later, she faced a very special challenge. The final event of the term was a program based on a final outcome of the year's music and physical education activities. Kristi was behind in both. My husband and I dreaded the day as well.

On the day of the program, Kristi pretended to be sick. Desperately I wanted to keep her home. Surely missing one program couldn't matter. But my conscience wouldn't let me off that easily. So I practically got a pale, reluctant Kristi onto the school bus.

Just as I had forced my daughter to go to school, now I forced myself to go to the program. At the kindergarten, I felt worried because of her slow and clumsy reactions, she would surely hold up her team.

The performance went well until it was time for the sack race. Surely Jenny would find it tough. Now each child had to climb into a sack, hop to a goal line, return and climb out of the sack(袋子). I noticed Jenny standing near the end of her line of players.

But as her turn to join, a change took place in her team. The tallest boy behind Kristi placed his hands on her waist. Two other boys stood ahead of her. The moment the player in front of Kristi stepped from the sack, those two boys grabbed the sack and held it open while the tall boy lifted Kristi and dropped her into it. A girl ahead took her hand and supported her. Kristi gained her balance. Then off she hopped, smiling and proud.

At the cheers of teachers, schoolmates and parents, I silently thanked the warm, understanding people in life who make it possible for my disabled daughter to be like her fellow human beings.

Then I finally cried.

【1】When sending her daughter to the kindergarten, the writer must have felt __________.

A. lonely   B. worried   C. cheerful     D. scared

【2】What does the underlined sentence imply?

23、D

Whoever has made a voyage up the Hudson River must remember the Catskill Mountains. They are a branch of the great Appalachian family, and can be seen to the west rising up to a noble height and towering over the surrounding country. When the weather is fair and settled, they are clothed in blue and purple, and print their beautiful shapes on the clear evening sky, but sometimes when it is cloudless, gray steam gathers around the top of the mountains which, in the last rays of the setting sun, will shine and light up like a crown of glory.

At the foot of these mountains, a traveler may see light smoke going up from a village.

In that village, and in one of the houses (which, to tell the exact truth, was sadly time-worn and weather-beaten), there lived many years ago, a simple, good-natured fellow by the name of Rip Van Winkle.

Rip's great weakness was a natural dislike of all kinds of money-making labor. It could not be from lack of diligence, for he could sit all day on a wet rock and fish without saying a word, even though he was not encouraged by a single bite. He would carry a gun on his shoulder for hours, walking through woods and fields to shoot a few birds or squirrels. He would never refuse to help a neighbor, even in the roughest work. The women of the village, too, used to employ him to do such little jobs as their less helpful husbands would not do for them. In a word, Rip was ready to attend to everybody's business but his own.

If left to himself, he would have whistled life away in perfect satisfaction; but his wife was always mad at him for his idleness (懒散). Morning, noon, and night, her tongue was endlessly going, so that he was forced to escape to the outside of the house -- the only side which, in truth, belongs to a henpecked husband.

【1】Which of the following best describes the Catskill Mountains?

A. They are on the west of the Hudson River.

B. They are very high and beautiful in this area.

C. They can be seen from the Appalachian family.

D. They gather beautiful clouds in blue and purple.

【2】The hero of the story is probably_____________.

A. hard-working and likes all kinds of work

B. idle and hates all kinds of jobs

C. simple, idle but very dutiful

D. gentle, helpful but a little idle

【3】The underlined words "henpecked husband" in the last paragraph probably means

a man who .

A. likes hunting

B. is afraid of hens

C. loves his wife

D. is afraid of his wife

【4】What would be the best title for the text?

A. Catskill Mountains.

B. A Mountain Village.

C. Rip Van Winkle.

D. A Dutiful Husband.

24、We all need money to survive in the world. Usually, our job’s salary is adequate for our basic needs. 【1】 Likely not. And your main job may not be as secure as you would like. Some consider it possible for robots to take over about 40 percent of all jobs in 2025.

Enter the sideline. A reliable one is undoubtedly helpful in offering more financial security; furthermore, there are other benefits.

One of the best parts is that a sideline can help you get out of your comfort zone. Depending on what your sideline is, you may encounter different kinds of people. 【2】 You can make new friends, discover something new or develop yourself at a personal level.

A sideline can also give you a competitive advantage in your career. When you’re devoted to a single career, you’ll often end up with a similar thinking style as those who share the same training and job responsibilities as you. A sideline will challenge you to learn new skills. 【3】. This can help you become unique in your main career since you’ll bring those new skills and perspectives to your core work role.

【4】. A sideline isn’t an obligation. You choose to do it. The flexible nature of a sideline is attractive to many people. You have the freedom to decide how much time you want to spend doing it.

Most importantly, you can live out your passion with a sideline. Your main job may pay the bills, but maybe it doesn’t match your passion. 【5】 Let’s say you are a dog person. You could make money by walking dogs or making dog toys. Doing work that you are passionate about is an excellent reason to have a sideline.

A．Start a sideline that does.

B．It is a great way to make ends meet and provide extra income.

C．Assess your skills and think about turning them into a business.

D．But will it cover emergencies, debts and those expensive wants?

E．You’ll be exposed to different types of knowledge and ways of thinking.

F．Another beauty of a sideline is that you can be the boss of your schedule.

G．By expanding your social circle, you can enjoy some unexpected benefits.

25、In those years, like many busy adults, I found myself exhausted, unable to appreciate the true meaning of Christmas.

My son, Nicholas, was in kindergarten. It was a(n)________season for the six-year-old. For weeks, he’d been________the song “Christmas Love” for his school’s “Winter Pageant”.
