21.(6分)When I was a kid in the 1960s. my parents had a country store in the small town of Frankfort, Maine. No neighboring houses could be seen From our place,and new salesmen were always amazed at the amount of business we did. Dad's motto was, “We sell everything.” If he didn't have something in store, he would pick it up for customers on his weekly trip to Bangor.One time Dad was in Bangor getting shoes for someone at a shoe factory, He saw big boxes full of shoes and asked about them. They were the mates(一双鞋中的一只) to faulty shoes that had been thrown away. He looked through the boxes and realized that there were usable brand-new shoes in there. He offered the manager five cents a shoe, Dad made the deal and got the manager to reserve any future boxes for him.Of course Mon, his business partner, was more practical, and her first reaction was, “But what are you going to do with them?” Dad b ought an old school bus. He cleaned it up, removed the seats and placed big containers down both sites of the aisle(通道). When all was ready, the whole Family helped to put the shoes in place. At first,it looked like we had plenty of room on the bus, but Dad kept bringing home more boxes.There was no sign on the Shoe Bus. 'The only advertising Dad did was to place a piece of paper beside the store exit that read “Shoes $1 a pair. "When folks asked about the deal. they learned it wasn’t that easy because th ey had to find their own pairs. The attraction was a combination of getting a good deal on a quality pair of shoes and the thrill of the hunt.To this day I still run into people who talk about the fun they had searching for pairs in Dad's Shoe Bus.1、The author's parents ran their store well becauseA.they always had enough supplies in storeB.they won the great support of new salesmenC.they opened it in a very crowded neighborhoodD.they did all they could to meet their customers' need2、Why did the customers think it fun shaping in the Shoe Bus?A.There were free bus rides offered on them.B.'They could receive better customer service.C.They could match pairs of shoes by themselves.D.There was a wide variety of shoes to choose from.3、What can we learn about the author's father from the text?A.He had a good nose for business.B.He was clever at transforming a store.C.He was patient with customersD.He had a strong preference for bargains.22.(8分)It used to be a matter of fact when Peter Pan — a charac ter from James Matthew Barrie’s 1911 book —said: “All children, except one, grow up.”But this “fact” doesn’t seem to apply to today’s world anymore.According to the NPD Group, a US market research company, sales of toys to adults in the UK increased by more than 20 percent in 2016, three times the pace of the children’s toy market itself. These toys ranged from puzzles and Lego building sets to vehicle models and action figures. And more than half of the sales came from millennials — people born between the 1980s and 2000s.“Adults of the 21st century are channeling their inner child, one toy at a time,” commented website Koreaboo. This is also why these adults are sometimes referred to as “kidults”.According to Frederique Tutt, an analyst at NPD, the motivation of these grown-ups is to escape the stress of today’s fast-paced world. They are driven toward the more immediate pleasures brought by toys than those brought by, say, getting a promotion, which is far less easy to achieve.“It reminds me of the playful side of life,” Rob Willner, a 25-year-old PhD student in the UK, told The Telegraph when talking about his love for Lego, which he said brings him both comfort and entertainment.Despite this, some social scientists see the trend as disturbing. To Frank Furendi, a professor at the University of Kent in the UK, the fact that so many adults are pursuing “the thrills of youth” is the evidence that “adulthood has got nothing attractive about it anymore”, he told The New York Times. “That’s actually quite sad.”But scientists are probably just worrying too much. According to Canadian comic book artist Todd McFarlane, collecting toys could simply be a way for people to express their individuality. “It’s just pop culture stuff. It’s stuff tha t says, ‘I like a little of this and I like a little of that’,” he told ABC News. “It’s no big deal.”So now that over 100 years have passed since Peter Pan, perhaps it’s time to introduce a new “fact”, as stated in the tagline (标语) of the UK fashion brand KIDULT: “Growin g old is mandatory (被迫的), but growing up is optional.”1、What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 2 imply?A.Something old is not suitable for a new world.B.Many adults still have some childlike features.C.All children grow up as they become adults.D.It’s difficult for some children to grow up in today’s world.2、Which of the following statements is true?A.Frederique Tutt believes that some adults enjoy playing with children’s toys to escape the stress.B.Rob Willner believes that the pleasure brought by toys is easier to achieve.C.Frank Furendi believes that the thrill of youth does not attract adults.D.Todd McFarlane is worrying too much about collecting toys.3、What is the writer’s attitude towards the trend of growing kidults?A.Supportive. B.Doubtful.C.Critical. D.Indifferent.4、What can be the best title for the passage?A.Growing Old Or Growing Up B.Toys Sales On The RiseC.Staying Young Forever D.Kidults In Fashion Again23.(8分)Zach Bonner knows just how far trying can get you. Earlier this month the eleven-year-old completed his biggest charity project to date. He walked almost two thousand kilometers from his home in Florida to Washington D.C.to raise money for homeless children in America. Zach called his project "From My House to the White House". He carried a message to the American president and lawmakers. He asked for help for the homeless children in the United States. The walk raised tens of thousands of dollars for Zach's cause.His mother says Zach has always enjoyed community service work. It began when Hurricane Charley hit Florida in 2014. Zach decided to help victims by walking around his area with his little red wagon collecting and giving out bottles of water. He got the nickname "Little Red Wagon Boy". Now, "Little Red Wagon" is the name of Zach's foundation. It has raised money for playgrounds and shelters for homeless children. Zach also gives out thousands of backpacks. He fills each "Zachpac" with a toy, personal cleaning supplies, socks, sewing supplies, a first-aid kit and food.Zach has won many awards, met several presidents and been on television. But that is not why he wants to help people. Zach Bonner says if you have a good heart you have to use it. And, he says, charity work is a lot of fun.Eighteen-year-old Christina Johnson and her older sister Geneva started their project, "Bring It On" in the Bronx area of New York City in 2014.

There is no way to 5 it. In fact, it is not the “baddy” as it is often supposed to be. A 6 amount of stress is important to provide motivation and give 7 to life. It is only when the stress gets out of control 8 it can lead to poor performance and 9 health.The amount of stress a person can bear 10 very much on the individual.
