home i was busy preparing the traditional thanksgiving turkey when the doorbell rang. i opened the front door and saw two small children in rags(破旧衣服) huddling together inside the storm door on the top step.“any old papers, lady?” asked one of them.i was busy. i wanted to say “no” until i looked down at their feet. they were wearing thin little sandals(凉鞋), wet with heavy snow.“come in and ill make you a cup of hot cocoa.”they walked over and sat down at the table. their wet sandals left marks upon the floor. i served them cocoa and bread with jam to fight against the cold outside. then i went back to the kitchen and started again on my household budget.the silence in the front room struck me. i looked in. the girl held the empty cup in her hands, looking at it. the boy asked in a flat voice, “lady, are you rich? ”“am i rich? no!”i looked at my shabby slipcovers(旧家具套). the girl put her cup back in its saucer (茶托;浅碟)carefully and said, your cups match your saucers. her voice was hungry with a need that no amount of food could supply. they left after that, holding their bundles of papers against the wind. they hadnt said thank you. they didnt need to. they had reminded me that i had so much for which to be grateful.plain blue china(瓷的) cups and saucers were only worth five pence. but they matched.i tasted the potatoes and stirred the meat soup. potatoes and brown meat soup, a roof over our heads, my man with a good steady job-these matched, too.i moved the chairs back from the fire and cleaned the living room. the muddy prints of small sandals were still wet upon my floor. let them be for a while, i thought, just in case i should begin to forget how rich i am.21why did the writer let the children in?ashe showed great pity on them.bshe wanted to sell old papers.cshe knew them and wanted to make them a cup of cocoa.dshe wanted to invite them to her thanksgiving party.22the girl thought the writer was rich perhaps because_ashe saw that the ladys room was comfortable bshe saw the cups matched the saucerscthe writers slipcovers were very new dthe woman had expensive clothes23what was the weather probably like when the story happened?acloudy bsunny cwindy dsnowy24from the passage, we can infer that whether you are rich depends on_ahow much money you have had bhow you feel about your lifechow you have helped others dwhat job you are doing ba healthy amount of sunshine may be the secret to staying young. british scientists have discovered.vitamin d is produced naturally by the skin in response to(对的反应) sunlight and may help to slow the ageing process and protect against heart disease, according to the study.researchers from kings college london studied 2,160 women aged between 18 and 79, looking at their telomeres- a biological marker of ageing found in dna. as people get older, their telomeres get shorter and they become more susceptible(易受伤害的) to certain illnesses.but the study found women with high levels of vitamin d had comparatively longer telomeres- a sign of being biologically younger and healthier.the study suggests vitamin d may help to slow down the ageing(变老，老化) process of dna, and therefore the ageing process as a whole.lead researcher dr brent richards said, “these results are exciting because they show for the first time that people who have higher levels of vitamin d may age more slowly than people with lower levels of vitamin d.” this could help to explain how vitamin d has a protective effect on many ageing related diseases, such as heart disease and cancer.”professor tim spector, a co-author of the report, added, “ although it might sound absurd(荒唐的), its possible that the same sunshine which may increase our risk of skin cancer may also have a healthy effect on the general ageing process.vitamin d made by the action of sunlight on the skin accounts for 90 percent of the bodys supply, but lower levels can also be got through food such as fish, eggs and breakfast cereals(粥).other studies have suggested the vitamin plays a key role in protecting against cancer and heart disease.25a certain amount of sunshine helps people stay young because _.apeople feel happy and energetic in the sun bsunshine protects people against heart diseasecvitamin d makes ones skin look young and healthy dvitamin d may help to slow the ageing process.26from brent richards, we know that _.asunlight causes skin cancer to people with high level of vitamin dbthe study generally has a healthy effect on the general ageing process cvitamin d can only be got from fish, eggs and breakfast cerealsdthe higher levels of vitamin d people have, the more slowly people may age27what can we infer from the passage?atelomeres are important as they are signs of ageing of the dna.bsunlight can be dangerous as it causes skin cancer.csunlight does more good than harm to our health.dvitamin d can also be gained from food.28what is the best title of the passage? asecret of staying young bvitamin d helps slow ageingcsunlight and vitamin d dsunlight and healthcare you looking for some new and exciting places to take your kids (孩子) to? try some of these places：visit art museums. they offer a variety of activities to excite your kids interest. many offer workshops for making handmade pieces, traveling exhibits, book signings by childrens favorite writers, and even
