I felt very sad because I was not able to get the ticket to the film Hero last Friday. I learned from the newspaper that tickets could be bought at the cinema box office in Richland Hills any day between 10:00 a. m. and 4:00 p. m. Since I work from 9:00 a. m. to 5:30 p. m. , the only time I could go to the cinema is during my 45 minutes’ lunchtime. It is a pity that the cinema is on the other side of the town and the bus service between my company and Richland Hills is not very good. But if you are lucky, you can make the round trip in 45 minutes.
Last Monday, I stood at the bus stop for 15 minutes waiting for a bus. By the time I saw one come round the corner, there was not enough time left to make the trip, so I had to go back. The same thing happened on Tuesday, and again on Wednesday. On Thursday my luck changed. I got on a bus right away and arrived at the cinema in twenty minutes. But when I got there, I found a long line of people at the box office. I heard one man said he had been waiting in line for over an hour. I found I would not have enough time to wait in line. I caught the next bus and went back across the town.
By Friday I understood my only hope was to make the trip by car. It was expensive, but I felt it would be worth it to see the film. The trip by car only took 10 minutes, but it felt like an hour to me. When I reached the cinema, I was delighted to see that nobody was waiting in line. But I quickly found out that it was because they had already sold out all the tickets.
21.It seemed that the writer of the story works as a ________.
A.worker B.clerk C.farmer D.doctor
22.The writer tried to go to the cinema every day, but really got there ________.
A.five times B.three times C.four times D.twice
23.We can infer from the underlined sentence that the writer was ________.
A.worried B.sorry C.surprised D.pleased
24.In the end the writer got________ ticket(s).
A.one B.two C.three D.no
25.When the writer reached the cinema, he was delighted because ________.
A.he understood B.it was expensive, but he felt it would be worth it to see the film
C.he saw that nobody was waiting in line D.the trip by car only took 10 minutes

Feeling left out
A reader wrote in to say that she was feeling lonely at break because her best friend wasn't around. Here's our advice to her—and to all kids who feel lonely sometimes.
It's hard when a best friend isn't around—maybe because she moved to a different school or a different class. You may feel lonely at break or lunchtime. Maybe it seems like everybody else already has their friends. But remember, there's always room for more friends.
Start by looking around your classroom—think about which kids you'd like to play with at a break. Look for chances to say hi to them, smile, and be friendly. Offer to share something or express your appreciation(欣赏) to them. Invite someone to play with you or say “Do you want to sit here?” in the lunchroom. When you're at break, walk over to kids you want to play with, act friendly, and say “Hi, can I play, too?” or just join in.
If you have trouble doing this or if you're feeling shy, ask your teacher to help you make new friends. The best way to make friends is to be a friend. Be kind, be friendly, share, say nice things, offer to help—and pretty soon, you'll have one, or two, or even more new friends.
You might still miss that special best friend. But when you see each other you can share something you didn't have before she left: You can introduce her to your new friends!
26.This text is written for _________.
A.teachers B.parents C.students D.visitors
27.According to the writer, some kids feel lonely at break because they ________.
A.have trouble with their studies
B.don't have their best friends around
C.need their parents to be with them
D.are too young to look after themselves
28.If you want to make friends with some new kids, you should ________ first.
A.look around and choose the kids you'd like to play with
B.say hi, smile and be friendly to the kids
C.share something or express your appreciation to them
D.invite them to play with you
29.The underlined word “this” in Paragraph 4 refers to “_________”.
A.sharing your ideas
B.talking before many people
C.studying better at school
D.developing new friendship
30.Some kids need help from teachers to make friends because ________.

My Sharing Experience
Sharing is a way of behavior as well as a good quality of people. Life is full of sharing. I think it’s important to share happiness and sadness with others.
When I was ten, we moved to a new district. Facing the strange surroundings, I felt lonely and upset. It was my neighbor, Tim, who helped me find pleasure again. He showed me around and introduced new friends to me. He also shared his favorite books, music and learning methods with me. We soon became good friends. Thanks to his sharing I began to share with others.
As we know, when happiness is shared, it will be doubled; when a problem is shared, it is like cutting it in half. Sharing brings us pleasure, confidence and courage to overcome difficulties. Let’s open our hearts to share with others in our future life.
