阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项。
A
I’m a real book lover. Every time my friends visit me, my nose is buried in a book. Wherever I go, I always have a book with me. Novels, history books, stories about people, journals and news—I read them all and I’ve learnt a lot, too. For example, many things in life happen for the best even if we don’t like or understand them. 2·1·c·n·j·y
Why is reading su ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ch an enjoyable pastime for me I probably first learned about it from my parents. My mother read to me at night in my childhood and bought me picture books. The greatest gift she has given me is a love for reading. And it will be a life-long habit.
No one ever asked me why I liked to read. They just saw me and asked, “Oh Is that for school work ” And I just shook my head, “No. It’s just for fun.” While reading a good book, I can totally forget myself and fly to another world. It’s like exploring through someone’s eyes, which is just as exciting as watching a movie.
Reading is also n ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ecessary in order to learn about writing, to improve my use of words and phrases and broaden my knowledge. What a pity to see our imagination disappear, for we don’t exercise it often. Reading can even be good for one’s health, I think. Everyone should read sad stories that make us cry and also books with humor that make us laugh out loud!
21. Among the gifts my ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) parents have given me, which is the most valuable one
A. A love for reading. B. Picture books.
C. Good health. D. A lovable pastime.
22. In the fourth paragraph, the author thinks reading can ____. 21cnjy.com
A. make his parents happy B. finish his school work
C. improve wr ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )iting and broaden knowledge D. help him understand some movies
23. If we don’t use our imagination often, ____.
A. it is bad for our health B. we will soon learn how to write
C. it will help us to have a good rest D. it will soon disappear 【出处：21教育名师】
24. What doe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s the passage mainly talk about
A. Why do I have few friends B. What are my life habits
C. Why do I love reading D. Why do things happen for the best
B

There are now about 1,800 daily papers in the United States.
Today, as a gr ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )oup, English language newspapers have the largest circulation (发行量) in the world. But the largest circulation for a newspaper is that of the Japanese newspaper Asahi Dhimbun (朝日新闻).It sells more than 11 million copies every day.

Not all memories are ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sweet. Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars (伤痕).
36
Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which will help people forget bad memories. 37 They hope it might reduce or possibly erase (抹去) the effect of painful memories.
In November, experts t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ested a drug on people in the US and France. 38 So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased.
39 Some thin ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )k it is a bad idea, while others support it. Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers’ troubling memories after a war. But those who are against the research say that it is very dangerous to change memories because memories give us our identity. 40 “All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but make us who we are. I’m not sure we want to wipe those memories out,” said Rebecca Dresser.
A. The drug stop ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s the body releasing chemicals that store memories in the brain.B. They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past. C. The research has caused a great deal of argument.D. Some memories can ruin people’s lives.E. All we want to do is help people have better control of memories.F. Often they relive these experiences in night-mares (噩梦).G. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience.

As student, w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e have classes from early morning till late afternoon. Therefore, to take a ten-minute break between classes is of great important. Otherwise, we may feel tiring both physically and mentally. During the ten-minute break we should do something to get rid of tiredness and should not do anything which will make us be too excited.
