21、   No fight can end, and no friendship can move on, until everyone says these little words: I’m sorry. Sometimes, though, it can be difficult to say them. 【1】

• It is not about winning.

【2】 When you start fighting with a friend, you may feel it is important that you “win” the fight by proving you’re right and he is wrong, or by making him the first to apologize. In reality, you’ll both lose if you let your fight ruin your friendship, and you’ll both win if you find a way to heal it.

• 【3】

You may have heard the expression “His pride stood in the way.” It is usually used to describe a person who is so determined to be “right” that he lets an opportunity for happiness pass him by forever. 【4】 Remember that as time goes by, we usually forget who was right and who was wrong in a disagreement, and only remember the sadness of losing a friend.

• Take the first step.

Are you sick of fighting? Do you think this fight is just not important enough to ruin your friendship? 【5】 You don’t have to take full responsibility for starting the fight, or even say that your feelings were wrong. But you should find something you did or said that’s worth apologizing for. If you say you’re sorry, it’s like an invitation for your friend to do the same. Once you’ve both said it, you’ll both feel a million times better.

A. Stop thinking about your pride.

B. Then try to be the first to apologize.

C. Here are some things to keep in mind.

D. Don’t let this happen to a friendship you care about.

E. It’s about taking some responsibility for the argument.

F. There are some special moments when you shouldn’t take the first step.

G. Friendships aren’t like the Super Bowl, and there should never be the determination of a winner.

22、Tash was waiting in line at the supermarket when she noticed the young mum in front of her struggling to pay her bill. Tash knew it was only a matter of time before the woman’s young child became fussy (难缠的), and she felt for the mum, who appeared upset and embarrassed.

Having been in a similar position in the past, Tash didn’t hesitate to jump in and pay for her shopping. Her reasoning was simple: “Pay it forward.” “It was just really nice to help her out,” Tash says. “It was only $ 50 or something like that, it wasn’t a huge amount. But afterwards, the woman gave me a hug and had tears in her eyes... and I got a bit emotional as well.”

“In today’s day and age, with what we’re all going through, just to get that feeling of, ‘Oh wow, there is good out there’... it’s nice to hear there is a bit of humanity,” Tash says.

People start to help others by doing things for other people. But you don’t have to break the bank, or even open your wallet, to give paying it forward a go. Psychologist Dr Lishman says offering compliments or praise to strangers, or hand-making items or food for those in need, can serve the same purpose. Alternatively, donating clothes or books to a charity or mentoring (指导) a student can also be considered ways to get involved. All you need is to set out with the intention of helping someone you don’t know, without any expectation of reward, acknowledgement or payback.

That can lead to an increased sense of connection and a rise in feel— good hormones, which floods us with positive emotions. Knowing that our good deeds can make a “massive difference” to someone else’s mental health and mood can also boost our own wellbeing.

【1】What did we know about the young mum?

A．She felt annoyed in public.

B．She couldn’t afford to pay her bill.

C．She knew Tash before.

D．She bore burden of childcare and life.

【2】How did the woman feel after getting Tash’s help?

A．Anxious.

B．Moved.

C．Confident.

D．Romantic.

【3】According to Dr Lishman, which of the following is an example of help?

A．Jenny donated clean clothes to a nursing home.

B．Bob received a reward for his part in the rescue.

C．Mary shared homemade food with her friends.

D．Tom charged me half price for unlocking the door.

【4】What message does the author seem to convey in the text?

A．Offering a helping hand is a must.

B．Tash is always willing to help others.

C．Good things often come out of bad situations.

D．Acts of kindness for strangers bring great joy.

23、Fifteen years ago, I took a summer vacation in Lecce in southern Italy. After climbing up a hill for a panoramic (全景的) view of the blue sea, white buildings and green olive trees, I paused to catch my breath and then positioned myself to take the best photo of this panorama.

Unfortunately, just as I took out my camera, a woman approached from behind, and planted herself right in front of my view. Like me, this woman was here to stop, sigh and appreciate the view.

Patient as I was, after about 15 minutes, my camera scanning the sun and reviewing the shot I would eventually take, I grew frustrated. Was it too much to ask her to move so I could take just one picture of the landscape? Sure, 1 could have asked her, but something prevented me from doing so. She seemed so content in her observation. I didn’t want to mess with that..

Another 15 minutes passed and I grew bored. The woman was still there. I decided to take the photo anyway. And now when 1 look at it, I think her presence in the photo is what makes the image interesting. The landscape, beautiful on its own, somehow comes to life and breathes because this woman is engaging with it.

This photo, with the unique beauty that unfolded before me and that woman who “ruined” it, now hangs on a wall in my bedroom. What would she think if she knew that her figure is captured (捕捉) and frozen on some stranger’s bedroom wall? A bedroom, after all, is a very private space, in which some woman I don’t even know has been immortalized (使……永存). In some ways, she lives in my house.

Perhaps we all live in each others, spaces. Perhaps this is what photos are for: to remind us that we all appreciate beauty, and that we all share a common desire for pleasure, for connection, for something that is greater than us.

That photo is a reminder, a captured moment, an unspoken conversation between two women, separated only by a thin square of glass.

【1】What happened when the author was about to take a photo?

A. Her camera stopped working.   B. A woman blocked her view.

C. Someone asked her to leave.   D. A friend approached from behind.

【2】According to the author, the woman was probably   .

A. enjoying herself   B. losing her patience

C. waiting for the sunset   D. thinking about her past

【3】In the author’s opinion, what makes the photo so alive?

A. The rich color of the landscape.

B. The perfect positioning of the camera.

C. The woman’s existence in the photo.

D. The soft sunlight that summer day.

【4】The passage can be seen as the author’s reflections (反思) upon   .

A. a particular life experience   B. the pleasure of traveling

C. the art of photography   D. a lost friendship
