21、People are motivated to do activities by many different factors. For me the main factors that are involved are competition, the desire for achieving greatness, the satisfaction of completing projects, and enjoyment.

Since I am a twin, a sense of competition is deep rooted in my brain. Healthy competition can push us to do fantastic things. It makes us strive for a certain goal and gets us to do things faster. However, I do not think competition should become harmful. When anger, frustration, and depression is a result of competition, it is not healthy. Yet, competition can bring about respect, friendship, and mutual gain. In the case with my twin brother, we have pushed ourselves to be good at sports, music, school, and even at work. This competitive spirit has leaked into my life without my twin around. In a sense, I reproduce my twin brother in other people. I always try to be number one at whatever I do—or at least in the top three. There are times this attitude becomes unhealthy, as I get frustrated if I give everything to a competition or activity and produce only average results. But as the years passed, I have gotten better at handling failure and defeat. All in all, I think I finish and do well in many areas of my life for the simple fact that I want to do well in them. The feeling of doing well against competent opponents is satisfying.

I enjoy the feeling of completing an important project. For instance, last year, I finished a poetry collection with my late father’s poems and my own poems. It was an honor to him and his work. In a way, I felt that his death was not in vain and that his work was proved even more through this collection. It is hard to describe the moment of knowing when such an important project is set to rest: it is almost like you are ready to die. You sense that a chapter of your life has closed and you are now a new person. These deep emotions motivate me to complete projects on a regular basis.

The simplest factor that motivates me to do something is enjoyment. There are people who do activities they do not enjoy for decades. I am not one of those people. I can work on tasks I do not like for a while, but in the end, my main focus should be on something that I enjoy. If I find joy in doing a certain work, I engage in it for a large part of the day, or even all day without tiring. Tiredness in most cases, in my life, is due to a lack of enjoyment in the work being done.

Each person has his or her own motivating factors. I hope this reflection has allowed you to dip deeper into your true nature.

22、   With their school still closed and boredom coming in, a group of teenagers decided to do something meaningful.

Since April, students from Lake Highland Preparatory School in Florida, US, launched a free online tutoring service to help younger students with their schoolwork. Since then, Orlando Student Tutoring has lined up about 50 students, all of them children doing assignments from home.

Their services, using Zoom, are open to any student who is interested. They’ve received signups from across central Florida and, much to their surprise, requests from students in other states such as California and Pennsylvania. “We’ve been very happy to actually help,” said Jeffrey Zhou, 17. “I didn’t expect we’d get as many students as we did.”

The core group of tutors are members of Lake Highland’s robotics club. “We were all just so bored,” said Pavan Kanumalla, 17, who helped get the tutoring program running. Knowing the pandemic(流行病) had done real damage to many others, they were “feeling guilty about being bored in quarantine (隔离期),” he said. While not sure what to do at first, the group settled on tutoring and was soon designing a website and lining up other students to serve as tutors. “We’re just trying to have the biggest influence we can,” Kanumalla said.

Brooks Ellson, 17, also joined in as a tutor. He helped a third grader who needed help with math, saying it felt good “just to offer something, to give back.” And, he admitted, it was something to help fill the long days. The students plan to continue over the summer, offering fun, summer-camp type classes to younger kids.

【1】What does Orlando Student Tutoring do?

A.Look after younger children.

B.Help younger children with their schoolwork.

C.Teach younger children robotics.

D.Train younger children to do housework.

【2】Jeffrey Zhou felt surprised about the fact that ______.

A.many parents found it hard to teach their children

B.their service wasn’t welcomed in California

C.their program has interested many students from other states

D.many students across the country have signed up to be tutors

【3】Why did Pavan Kanumalla feel guilty?

A.He didn’t know what to do during the pandemic.

B.He couldn’t tutor during the pandemic.

C.He failed to continue the program into the summer.

D.He felt bored while others suffered damage from the pandemic.

【4】What did Brooks Ellson think about Orlando Student Tutoring?

A.It benefits children of all ages.

B.It should be more fun.

C.It allows him to kill time in a meaningful way.

D.It should offer more types of classes to satisfy parents.

23、Hipster Greenport: 4 places to eat, shop and visit

Greenport may date back to the 1630s, but it’s feeling pretty of-the-moment right now. Here are four places that embody the old-meets-new energy of the village:

Claudio’s

If you’ve been to Greenport, you can’t miss Claudio’s — it’s where generations of Long Islanders have made a tradition of eating, whether inside the main restaurant or at the floating dock-bar. The new owners have added fresh elements: Baccano Pizza by Nino, which offers a variety of slices and pies until as late as 2 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays — is right by the dock entrance.

Little Creek Oyster Farm & Market

It’s little spots like this that tell the current Greenport story. There’s no sign or advertising for this tiny house changed from the cabin of an old ship that’s practically hidden down Bootlegger’s Alley near Mitchell Park. But there they are — streams of people who come to enjoy the fresh oysters while drinking local craft beer, with a waterside view.

The Times Vintage

Nostalgia (怀旧) for bygone times runs high in this 1909 building, which once served as the base for the Suffolk Times newspaper. These days, this well-designed shop sells vinyl records (黑胶唱片) and loads of old-fashioned clothing and home decoration items including mid-century highball sets.

Greenport Fire

Heat comes in many forms and several are sold here — hot sauces, cigars and candles. Consult the chalkboard for the current sauce offerings or browse cigars such as a hand-rolled Honduran Leaf by Oscar or the Gurkha Cellar Reserve made with 18-year-aged tobacco.

【1】What’s special about Greenport?

A.It is a place full of energy.

B.It is a famous port in the world.

C.It is a combination of new and old.

D.It is a popular place of interest.

【2】What can you do in The Times Vintage?

A.You can enjoy delicious oysters.

B.You can buy some old things.

C.You can find hand-rolled cigars.

D.You can have Baccano Pizza.

【3】If you are a smoker, you may be interested in _________.

A.Claudio’s

B.Little Creek Oyster

C.Greenport Fire

D.The Times Vintage

24、Rich as a King

William I, who conquered England some 930 years ago, had wealth, power and an army. Yet although William was very rich by the standard of his time, he had nothing like a flush toilet (抽水马桶), or riding lawn mower (除草机). How did he get by ?

History books are filled with wealthy people who were poor compared to me. I have storm windows, Croesus did not. Entire nations trembled before Alexander the Great, but he couldn’ t buy cat food. Czar Nicholas lacked an electric saw.

Given how much better off I am than so many famous dead people, you’ d think I’d be content. The trouble is that, like most people, I compare my wealth with that of living persons: neighbors, school classmates, famous TV people. The greed I feel toward my friend Howard’ s new kitchen is not reduced by the fact no kings ever had a refrigerator with glass doors.

There is really no rising or falling standard of living. Over the centuries people simply find different things to feel sad about. You’ d think that simply not having disease would put us in a good mood, but no, we want a hot bath too.

Of course, one way to achieve happiness would be to realize that even by today’ s standards the things I own are pretty nice. My house is smaller than the houses of many investment bankers, but even so it has a lot more rooms than my wife and I can keep clean.

Besides, to people looking back at our era from a century or two in the future, these bankers’ fancy counter tops and my own worn Formica will seem equally shabby. I can’t keep up with my neighbors right now. But just wait.

【1】What can be inferred from paragraph 1&2 ?

A．What a luxury life they once led!

B．There were so many great rulers in history.

C．They could easily gain wealth than average people.

D．They might not live in a satisfactory way in the eyes of the writer.

【2】How many historical figures are mentioned to compare lives in the past and present ?

A．2.

B．3.

C．4

D．5

【3】According to the passage, the author proposes to ______.

A．tell us to be content with life

B．encourage us to struggle for wealth

C．recommend living in a simple way

D．teach us to learn lessons from life

【4】What’ s the author’ s attitude towards life?

A．Indifferent.

B．Cautious.

C．Uncertain.

D．Positive.

25、It was a very hot day in late summer. I was working in a local wood factory. It was dangerous, back-breaking work that paid very ______ . In the year I had worked there, only four other people hadn’t quit and been ______ with new faces, for there was no other work for them to find to ______ our families.

On this day the ______ weren’t working and all of us were covered in sweat and sawdust. When I looked around, every face I saw looked angry and ______ . Abruptly, a voice called out, “Hey!

All of us stopped to seek for her as she ______ looking for a way out.
