22、   It’s nothing new that you can find many files or services you can download or use from the Internet. The question is: Is downloading legal or not? In most cases the answer is negative, because sharing and downloading are illegal. Of course, you can find files for legal downloading, but you have to pay for them.

It seems innocent if you click on the download mark, but it isn’t. It should be compared with stealing in a store. Would you steal a magazine, an MP3player or a car? Downloading from the Internet is a theft, and sharing files, once you have stolen them, only makes it wore. For example, if everybody only downloaded, movies wouldn’t make money and the studios wouldn’t invest millions of dollars to make new ones.

Many people may think it better, easier and cheaper to do downloading. I think, that is the main reason why Internet users prefer sharing something to buying them. In the modern world we love convenience and what could be more convenient than getting music, films and games without having to leave your house? You don’t need to pay for what you get, there is no registration, and you don’t have to wait until shops open or the CD/DVD you want is posted to you. However, you could be in big trouble if you are caught. You could go to prison as a result of acting unlawfully, but so far only a tiny amount of people have been charged for downloading illegally. The majority of people who download illegally, and use the files for their personal use, will not get in trouble. And that's why it’s important for people to understand what the long-term consequences are if they don’t want to pay for their music, films and TV. Will film and music companies still spend millions of pounds every year if they have no chance of making a profit? The answer is plainly “no”.

Finally I would like to say that the Internet offers a lot of services for money, but people will always try to get them for free. To summarize my thoughts, I’d like to highlight that illegal downloading is both unfair towards producers and dangerous for those who practice this kind of activity. You have to decide whether to buy or download.

【1】Many people download files free from the Internet because ________.

A.they follow others’ examples to do such things

B.they don’t think they may be charged by the producer

C.they think everything on the Net can be shared by others

D.they think it is legal, convenient and easy

【2】What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?

A.Downloading helps movies become more popular.

B.Downloading free files is as illegal as stealing.

C.Sharing files on the Internet is dangerous.

D.Sharing files on the Internet can make a profit.

【3】What does the underlined word “highlight” in paragraph 4 mean?

A.Stress. B.Explain. C.Admit. D.Deny.

【4】What is the author’s purpose of writing this text?

A.He advises readers to download legal files.

B.He asks readers to limit the amount of free downloading.

C.He wants to make it clear that downloading for free is against the law.

D.He tells readers how to avoid being charged for downloading.

23、An Indonesian librarian is lending books to children in exchange for trash they collect in a novel way to clean up the environment and get the kids to read more.

Each weekday, Raden Roro Hendarti, a librarian in Indonesia’s Java Island rides her three-wheeler with books piled up at the back for children in Muntang village to exchange for plastic cups, bags and other waste that she carries back. As soon as she shows up, little children, many accompanied by their mothers, surround her “Trash Library” and ask loudly for the books. They are all carrying trash bags and Raden’s three-wheeler quickly fills up with them as the books fly out. She’s happy the kids are going to spend less time on online games as a result.

“Let us get kids to read more and build a culture of literacy from a young age,” Raden said. “We should also take care of our waste in order to fight against climate change and to save the earth from trash,” she said.

She collects about 100 kg of waste each week, which is then sorted out by her colleagues and sent for recycling or sold. She has a stock of 6,000 books to lend and wants to take the mobile service to neighboring areas as well.

Kevin Alamsyah, an eager 11-year-old reader, looks for waste lying in the village. “When there is too much trash, our environment will become dirty and it’s not healthy. That’s why I look for trash to borrow a book,” he says.

The literacy rate for above-15-year-olds in Indonesia is around 96 percent, but a September report by the World Bank warned that the pandemic will leave more than 80% of 15-year-olds below the minimum reading level identified by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.

【1】What is “Trash Library” like?

A．Well-decorated.

B．Noisy and dirty.

C．Relaxing.

D．Popular.

【2】Why does Raden run the “Trash Library”?

A．To fight against climate change.

B．To collect trash for money.

C．To help kids get away from online games.

D．To get kids to read more and care for the environment.

【3】What can we infer from the passage?

A．Indonesia’s environmental situation is worrying.

B．People in Indonesia has a very low literacy rate.

C．The trash library has been introduced to many other cities.

D．The pandemic has a negative effect on teenagers’ reading.

【4】Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?

A．A Novel Way to Improve Library

B．The Indonesian System for Reading

C．Your Trash Benefiting the Environment

D．Your Collected Trash for Our Books

24、When you sleep somewhere else — like at summer camp or a friend’s house — you know you’re in for a fun time. It can be exciting to get away from the same old bed in the same old room in the same old house. But fun as this is, for some kids being away from home can be scary and sad. They want to go and have fun with their friends, but once they’re there, they start to miss their good old bed, their good old parents, and all that everyday stuff at home. It’s called being homesick (想家的).

Homesick means you’re upset, sad, and maybe scared. But don’t feel surprised. A lot of people get homesick, even grown-ups. When you’re used to having certain people and things around you, it can be scary when they’re gone. When you’re dealing with other problems, you will feel homesick, too. Some kids may feel more homesick than usual if their parents are getting divorced or if someone they loved has recently died.

Here are some ideas to help you feel less homesick.

Bring a little bit of home with you. If you’re going away from home, bring your pillow or pictures of the people you’ll be apart from and look at them any time you want.

Keep busy. The more fun stuff you do, the less time you’ll have to feel homesick. Try to join in activities wherever you are.

Stay in touch. You can make a plan for when you’ll call your mom or dad. You can also email or text message to stay in touch with family and friends. When you do get in touch with someone, make sure to talk about the fun things you’re doing!

Talk to someone where you are. Maybe you can tell a friend that you feel homesick. He or she might have some ideas to help you feel better.

【1】One feels homesick doesn’t mean he is ________.

25、Expect the unexpected

A couple of weeks ago, my grandfather was explaining his favorite expression, “ Nothing is ever easy.” The following day, as I tried to complete my day’s work, I happened to _________ a bumblebee (大黄蜂) on the skylight (天窗). The skylight was particularly high up, but I thought _________ the bee would take no more than five minutes. An hour later, the bee still _________.

All that had changed was that the living room was a _______ and that I was dizzy (头晕的) from _______ into the sunlight. I did not _______ to waste an hour on a tiny insect, but by doing so, I understood what my grandfather meant.

It is not only time that we tend to underestimate (低估) — we don’t take account _______ unexpected costs. We often imagine what can work _______, but we seldom think of all the _______ things that could affect us. However, it is important to remember that your day of week or year might not go as planned, and that is completely normal. It is perfectly __________ to feel challenged — even at a task you thought was simple ________ that is part of life.

If you can accept that nothing will ever be easy, then life might seem slightly more ________. In ________ school, I thought high school might be easier because I could choose the classes I wanted to take. In high school, I thought college might be easier because I could have a schedule, __________ for myself. Yet I was __________ each time. After accepting that school wouldn’t be easy, I found myself ________ a more positive attitude and ________ results.

Of course, there should be preparations made to take account of ________ or time. Doing so can only help you __________ your goals in a better way. However, there is no need to beat ourselves up (过分自责) when something stands in our __________. Maybe we cannot see a bee coming our way, but we can always give ourselves the extra time to catch it.
