21、The first day of school our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we hadn’t already known. I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder. I turned round to find a wrinkled, little old lady beaming up at me with a smile.
She said, “Hi handsome. My name is Rose. I’m eighty-seven years old. Can I give you a hug?” I laughed and enthusiastically responded, “Of course you may!” And she gave me a giant squeeze.
“Why are you in college at such a young, innocent age?” I asked. She jokingly replied, “I’m here to meet a rich husband, get married, and have a couple of kids...” “No seriously.” I asked. “I always dreamed of having a college education and now I’m getting one!” she told me.
We became instant friends. Every day we would leave class together and talk nonstop. Over the course of the year, Rose became a campus icon.
At the end of the semester we invited Rose to speak at our football banquet. “We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing.There are secrets to staying young, being happy, and achieving success. You have to laugh and find humor every day. You’ve got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you die. We have so many people walking around who are dead and don’t even know it! There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. Anybody can grow older. That doesn’t take any talent or ability. The idea is to grow up by always finding opportunities in change. Have no regrets.”
At the end of the year Rose finished the college degree she had begun all those years before. One week after graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep.

22、First and foremost, “The Great Salmon Run” looks amazing. It is beautifully filmed, done in a completely natural and sometimes friendly way and never looking still. The editing is always brief and smooth and the scenery is pure magic. A wide diversity of the different landscapes are included rather thanjust one habitat. The music fits very well, beautiful and appropriate.
Again, like so many Attenborough nature/wildlife documentaries, “The Great Salmon Run” fascinates, teaches, moves, entertains and attracts. In terms of the facts, there was a very good mix of the known ones and the unknown. Some facts are familiar to us while some are going into details about the different animals, their challenges and some truly amazing wildlife events in their struggles for survival and interaction with other animals whether prey (猎物) or predator (捕食者).
Certainly the salmons are a thing of beauty but the greyish brown bears similarly have impressive moments as well. It may not be new territory for Attenborough, but animals are what one can't get enough of. Besides, there is enough freshness to the material not to make one feel going round in circles but absorbed.
Narration (解说) by Attenborough helps significantly. He clearly knows his stuff and knows what to say and how to say it. He delivers it with his usual richness, soft-spoken enthusiasm and sincerity, never talking down to the viewers and keeping them wanting to know more. Viewers care for what goes on in front of and behind the camera.
At no point does “The Great Salmon Run” ever feel like just a series of scenes. Instead, it feels like its own story and journey, with real, complex emotions and conflicts and animal characters, all of which are developed in a way a human character would in a film.
Overall, amazing.
【1】The writer thinks in narration, Attenborough ________.
A.changes his usual style
B.keeps the viewers interested
C.ignores what the viewers want to know
D.thinks what to say is more important than how to say it
【2】According to the passage, what do we know about “The Great Salmon Run”?
A.It not only entertains.
B.It is set in one main habitat.
C.It is Attenborough's finest work.
D.It focuses on the struggle between the salmon and man.
【3】What is the writer's attitude towards “The Great Salmon Run”?
A.He considers it average.
B.He is negative about it.
C.He holds an objective view.
D.He thinks highly of it.
【4】The style of the article is ________.
A.a journal
B.a description
C.a film review
D.an argument
23、It is quite reasonable to blame traffic jams, the cost of gas and the great speed of modern life, but manners on the road are becoming horrible. Everybody knows that the nicest men would become fierce tigers behind the wheel. It is all right to have a tiger in a cage, but to have one in the driver’s seat is another matter.
Road politeness is not only good manners, but good sense too. It takes the most cool-headed drivers great patience to give up the desire to beat back when forced to face rude driving. On the other hand, a little politeness goes a long way towards reducing the possibility of quarrelling and fighting. A friendly nod or a wave of thanks in answer to an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of good will and becomes so necessary in modern traffic conditions. But such behaviors of politeness are by no means enough. Many drivers nowadays don’t even seem able to recognize politeness when they see it.
However, misplaced politeness can also be dangerous. Typical examples are the driver who waves a child crossing the street at a wrong place into the path of oncoming cars that may not be able to stop in time. The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever and whenever they want to. It always amazes me that the highways are not covered with the dead bodies of these grannies (奶奶).
An experienced driver, whose manners are faultless, told me it would help if drivers learnt to correctly join in traffic stream without causing total blockages that give rise to unpleasant feelings. Unfortunately, modern drivers can’t even learn to drive. Years ago, experts warned us that the fast increase of the car ownership would demand more give-and-take from all road users. It is high time for all of us to take this message to heart.
【1】According to the passage, troubles on the road are often caused by ________.
A. road conditions B. the behavior of the drivers
C. the speed of modem life D. the large number of cars
【2】In the writer’s opinion, ________.
A. unskillful drivers should be punished
B. strict traffic rules are badly needed
C. drivers should show road politeness properly
D. drivers should avoid traffic jams
【3】The underlined word “give-and-take” in the passage means ________.
A. politeness and impoliteness
B. good manners and bad manners
C. willingness to give in to each other’s wishes
D. offering help to others as much as possible
【4】What is the best title of the passage?
A. Traffic Problems B. Road Politeness
C. Bad Manners on the Road D. Good Drivers and Bad Drivers

26、阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My Uncle gave me a karaoke machine for my 13th birthday. For the longest time, it stayed in the box and for good reason — my singing is so bad. One Saturday night, my best friend Aubree and I opened the box. I started belting out Jackson Jax’s Girl, It’s Gotta B U, then began to dance. I looked like a cat trying to catch up a hairball. Aubree laughed so hard that she couldn’t even breathe. “Emma,” she cried, “please don’t do that in public!”
On Monday, in P.E. class, some boys started singing a horrible style of Girl, It’s Gotta B U. Everyone was laughing, including me. But when they started dancing, I felt like I had been punched (戳) in the stomach. The boys were imitating (模仿) me! But why? “Hey, Emma,” a boy said. “You’re a star!”
And then I knew my little brother Theo filmed and posted the video. Things only got worse after that. It seemed like the entire school had seen my video. The video had received more than 500,000 hits. Even after Theo took the video off of his YouTube account, it kept showing upon other people’s — 14 million views at last. My video had gone viral (快速传播)! “You’re a celebrity,” Aubree gushed. “Emma, you’re famous!” Everywhere I went, people asked for my autograph. Soon I felt like I was a pop dancing queen! I chose to play and sit with the popular kids. Then I wore sunglasses to hide from them in public. I even began to shout at my fans for disturbing me.
“You’ve changed,” Aubree commented.
“You’re jealous (妒忌的),” I told her. “Maybe I need a new best friend.”
“Maybe you’re right,” Aubree said, her voice cracking. I thought she might be crying.
After a while, my YouTube hits began to decrease to only a few thousand a day, then a few hundred, then a couple, until it seemed like no one was watching my video anymore. “Your fame is gone,” Theo said one night, sighing.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;

Even though I still sat with the popular kids, I was pretty much ignored.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
