lived in a building in a large city. the next building was only a few feet away from mine. there was a woman who lived there, whom i had never met, yet i could see her seated by her window each afternoon, sewing or reading. after several months had gone by, i began to notice that her window was dirty. everything was unclear through the dirty window. i would say to myself, “i wonder why that woman doesnt wash her window. it really looks terrible.”one bright morning i decided to clean my flat, including washing the window on the inside.late in the afternoon when i finished the cleaning, i sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. what a surprise! across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly visible(可见的). her window was clean!then it dawned on me. i had been criticizing (批评) her dirty window, but all the time i was watching hers through my own dirty window.that was quite an important lesson for me. how often had i looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings?since then, whenever i wanted to judge someone, i asked myself first, “am i looking at him through my own dirty window?” i try to clean the window of my own world so that i may see the world about me more clearly.21. “it dawned on me” in paragraph 5 probably means “_”.a. i began to understand it b. it cheered me upc. i knew it grew light

darker. they soon got lost, for they couldnt see very far in front of them. they huddled together that night over a fire.no one walked too far away from the group by themselves because it would surely lead to death. they sat close to each other throughout the dark hours not just for warmth, but for the fact that staying with the group was their only hope for survival. after what felt like a century, the sun started its slow climb up the sky. they were now able to see as far ahead of them as they liked, so they began to go down the mountain.they still remained as a group at this time even though there was no real need. a bond (凝聚力) had formed throughout the group that could not be broken or ignored. they knew each other just as well as they knew themselves. as they reached the place where they had started their journey, they knew it was time to say goodbye. feeling at peace, they bowed (鞠躬) deeply to each other. all of them kept the love they created as a group close to their hearts as they made their way out into the world alone.24. what was the difficulty the group of people met in the mountain?a. losing their way. b. animals attack.c. damaged roads. d. running out of food.25. what does the underlined word “huddled” in the first paragraph probably mean?a. talked a lot. b. sat close to each other.c. played happily. d. explored the mountain.26. what was the most

walk oncafrica is home to nearly 700 lakes and rivers. it holds the largest amount of water on earth. because of the overuse of the lakes, natural climate changes and other factors (因素), these lakes are disappearing quickly.millions of people in africa depend on water sources like lakes and rivers for their daily water. in other words, they cannot live without these lakes and rivers. recent studies by the united nations show that this loss of water supply is putting a great pressure on the african population.in the 1960s, lake chad was nearly 83,200 square feet large. in about forty years, it has lost 95% of its size and it has almost completely dried up. at one time, it was one of the largest lakes in the world, and was around 960,000 square feet around 6,000 years ago. the sizes of lakes and rivers and the amount of water have something to do with seasons naturally. but pollution and agriculture also play an important part in the loss of water. many pollutants (污染物) are put into lakes and rivers so that many lakes and rivers are seriously polluted, and the water may be poisonous (有毒的). if something isnt done soon about the disappearing lakes and rivers, there will not be enough water for everyone. then many people in africa will face diseases and possible dehydration (脱水).28. what can we infer from the first paragraph?a. there are about 700 lakes and rivers in africa.b. africa is the largest continent on earth.c. as climate changes, there is less and less water in africa.d. now africa has less water than before.29. the figures in the third paragraph show

results of the loss of water in africa? a. african peoples daily life is affected.b. agriculture develops quickly.c. the number of population in africa will be smaller.d. many people will suffer from diseases.31. what is the purpose of the passage?a. to explain why lakes and rivers are disappearing in africa.b. to show people the results of the loss of water in africa.c. to call on people to solve the problem of the loss of water in africa.d. to tell people how to protect the lakes and rivers in africa.dgoing green seems to be fad(时尚)for a lot of people these days. whether that is good or bad,
