He had no job, but he was rich. He was good at stealing. He had never been in prison. So none of his neighbours knew he was a thief.One day one of his friends came to visit him, but he was out. His son, Young Green, came out to meet the visitor and asked him to have a cup of tea in the sitting room. About half an hour later, Old Green came back.“Mr. Smith asked me to return seven hundred pounds to you, Mr. Green.” said his friend.“Thank you very much, my friend.” said Old Green.But to his surprise, the man couldnt find his wallet in his pocket. He looked very worried.“What has happened to you, my friend? ”“My wallet is gone,” said the man, “But it was in my pocket just now.”“Who has been here?” “Only your son.”“I see.” said Old Green. “Dont worry about that. I will get it back for you.”Old Green went out. Before long, he came back with the wallet in his hand. His friend was happy and said, “Did you blame your son for that?”“Dont speak so loudly!” whispered Old Green. “My son doesnt know I have picked the wallet from his pocket!”根据上面的短文内容回答问题。23. What was Old Green good at?_24. How long did the visitor wait for Old Green?_25. Why couldnt the visitor find his wallet?_26. Did Old Green know where the wallet was?_27. How did Old Green get the wallet back for the visitor?_BChinese are very generous when they begin to educate their children. No caring about the money, parents often send their children to the best schools or even abroad to England , the USA or Australia. They also want their children to take extra-course activities where they will either learn a musical instrument or ballet, or other classes that will give them a good start in life. The Chinese believe that the more expensive an education is, the better it is. So parents will spend a large number of money on education. Even poor parents will buy a computer for their child.However, what most parents fail to see is that the best education they can give their children is usually very cheap. Parents can see that their children are skilled in some areas while poor in others. What most parents fail to realize is that todays children lack（缺乏）self-respect and self-confidence.The problem is that parents are only educating their children on how to study well, but parents are not teaching them the most important skills they need to be confident, happy and clever.Parents can achieve this by teaching practical skills like cooking, sewing and doing other housework. These activities are teaching a child not only to read, but also to think. And that is more important.根据上面短文内容填空。28. Many Chinese parents never _ the money in educating _.29. They believe that the result will be _ if more money is spent on education. And that their children can _in life if they take extra-course activities.30. Parents can see that their children may have _ in some areas, but they dont realize that todays children are short on _.31. Parents should not only educate their children on how to _ well, but a
