AA couple had a son eleven years after they married. They were a loving couple and the boy was the_apple_of_their_eye. When the boy was around four years old, one day the father was very tired after work so he asked his wife to pick up their son. The mother, who was very busy in the kitchen, totally forgot about it.Later the boy lost his way on the street. When the son was found missing, the mother hurried to look for him, but she didn't find him. The mother felt very sad and didn't know how to face her husband.When the father went to the police station after hearing that the son was missing, he looked at his wife and said just four words. What do you think the four words were? The husband just said “I love you, darling.”The son was missing. If she had picked him up earlier, this would not have happened. There is no point in blaming (责备) anyone. His wife had also lost her only child. What his wife needed at that moment was comfort and understanding from her husband. That is what the husband gave his wife. Several weeks later, with the help of the police, the couple finally found their lost son. The family's relationship became stronger over that time.Sometimes we spend lots of time asking who is to blame. We miss many chances to give each other support and let each other feel the warmth of human relationships. Get rid of all your unwillingness to forgive, selfishness, and fears and you will find the world is much more wonderful.21．What is the meaning of the underlined phrase “the apple of their eye”？A. A person who always has a sweet smile in their opinion.B. A person who is as pretty as an apple in their opinion.C. A person who is loved more than anyone else in their opinion.D. A person who looks like an apple in their opinion.22．Why didn't the father pick the boy up himself?A. He was very lazy.B. He thought the mother had picked him up.C. He forgot to pick him up.D. He was too tired to do it.23．What can we learn from this passage?A. Be careful in everything you do.B. Love is the most important thing.C. Learn to forgive others.D. Everyone can make mistakes. 24．What do you think of the husband?A. Warm​h earted.B. Careful.C. Hard​w orking.D. Broad​m inded.BFirst Lady Michelle Obama is a big fan of volunteering. Volunteering means working for free to help someone else. Mrs. Obama says volunteering is very important. “It should be part of everyone’s life,” she says.Many teens agree. They say that helping others feels great and makes a difference. These days, more teens volunteer than work for pay. Teens clean up parks, walk dogs at animal shelters, visit the elderly and more.Some cities ---- including Seattle, Chicago, and Washington, D.C. ----require high school students to volunteer. Students must volunteer in order to graduate. The student volunteers learn new skills and help their communities.Many parents are in favor of the idea ---- they say volunteering helps teens build job skills. But most teens don’t want to be forced to volunteer. They say they are busy. And they say volunteering is only fun if it’s a choice.Read both sides of the debate and decide.YESVolunteering can help teens get into college or get a job.Many cities and towns need help. Volunteers can help keep important programs going.Not all teens will volunteer if it isn’t required. Schools should require students to do all they can to get ready for adult life.NOMost teens are already very busy with classes, homework, jobs and sports. Forcing them to do more isn’t fair.It should be up to each person. Helping out doesn’t feel as good if you have to do it.Finding a volunteer job isn’t always easy. Students shouldn’t be kept from graduating because of something they can’t control.25.

You’re thinking about what you’re good at, and what your place in the world is going to be. It’s comforting to face those challenges with peers（同龄人） who are into the same things as you are. And peers have a profoundly positive influence on each other and play important roles in each other’s lives:Friendship. Among peers you can find friendship and acceptance, and share experiences that can build lasting relationships.Positive examples. Peers set plenty of good examples for each other. Having peers who are doing well in school or doing their best in sports can influence you to be more goal-oriented (目标明确的), too. Peers who are kind and loyal influence you to build these qualities in yourself. Even peers you’ve never met can be role models!Feedback (反馈) and advice. Your friends listen and give you feedback as you try out new ideas, explore belief, and discuss problems. Peers can help you make decisions, too: what courses to take; whether to get your hair cut. Peers often give each other good advice.Socializing. Your peer group gives you chances to try out new social skills. Getting to know lots of different people — such as classmates or teammates — gives you a chance to learn how to expand your circle of friends, build relationships, and work out differences. You may have peers you agree or disagree with, peers you admire, and peers you don’t want to be like.Encouragement. Peers encourage you to work hard to get the solo in the concert, help you study, listen and support you when you’re upset or troubled.New experiences. Your peers might get you involved in clubs, sports, or religious groups. Your world would be far less rich without peers encouraging you to try sushi for the first time, and listen to a CD you’ve never heard before.29. From the passage we can learn that ____.A. peers can have a positive influence on each otherB. peers are different from each other in many waysC. peers like traveling to every corner of the worldD. peers depend on one another too much in their lives30. The underlined word “expand” in graph 5 means ____.A. createB. changeC. widenD. reduce31. Why can you turn to friends for help according to the passage?A. Because they are of the same age as you.B. Because you can get good advice from them.C. Because no one else can lend you a hand.D. Because your lessons are too difficult for you.DLow-Cost Gifts for Mother's DayGift No. IOffer to be your mother's health friend.
