Living in a modern Australian city is not very different from living in an American city. But there are some differences between living on farms.In many parts of the world, farmers and their families live in villages or towns. In the United States, each farm family lives in its own fields. Usually their neighbours live far away. Its hard for them to see each other on weekdays. Their children take school buses to the nearest schools. These schools are only for the farm families in this area. In some areas, there are small schools for a few farm families, and the children walk to their schools. But in Australia it is very different. Farmers live near each other and their children can walk to school and often go home for meals.Life keeps changing for everyone, so do farmers. Today there are cars, good roads, radios, television sets and there are modern machines for farming. All of these are changing farmers life.21 . （小题1）Living in a modern Australian city is almost_ living in an American city.Adifferent fromBcomfortable likeCthe same asDas important as22 . （小题2）Usually farm families live in_.Abig citiesBthe countryCthe schoolDmountains23 . （小题3）The farmers in_ can visit each other easily on weekdays.Athe worldBAustraliaCChinaDthe USA24 . （小题4）How do American farmers children go to school?AThey take school buses or walk to their schools.BThey ride their bikes to schools.CThey only walk to schools.DThey drive to schools.25 . （小题5）What about the farmers life now?ATheir life is poor.BTheir life is changing.CThey dont like their life.DTheir life is very hard.A Passion（热情）for DrivingIt was a Friday morning, 7:30 am. I felt too lazy to drive my car, so my son booked an Uber. In five minutes, the Uber reached our door. I checked the cab number and got inside the car. I was busy searching my bag for an important paper, so I just said, “Please, go quickly! Im in a hurry!”The driver replied, “Yes, maam!”I was surprised when I heard a female voice. I stopped for a second and looked at the driver. She was a young lady. Maybe around 30 or 32 years old. I had never had a female Uber driver before. I became interested in why she chose this job. I started the conversation, “If you dont mind, can I ask you some questions?”“Yes, maam! No problem,” she said.“I guess you are well-qualified,” I said.“Yes, maam! I have completed my education. I have even gotten my MBA.”“What made you choose to do this job?” I could see her smiling face in the rear-view mirror(后视镜).I love driving. I dont care how big or small my job is. I wanted a job where I can get satisfaction. I havent made much money from it yet, but as I told you, I love driving! Thats all there is to it.” Very politely, she said, “Driving has been my passion since childhood. Of course, I respect each and every job. In this case, at least I realized my dream.26 .

The first son went in the winter, the second in the spring, the third in summer, and the youngest son in the fall. When they had all gone and come back, he called them together to describe what they had seen. The first son said that the tree was ugly. The second son said no; it was covered with green leaves, and full of hope. The third son disagreed. He said there were many flowers that smelled so sweet and looked so beautiful, it was the most wonderful thing he had ever seen. The last son disagreed with all of them, he said there was lots of fruit in the tree, full of life and harvest（收获）. The man then explained to his sons that they were all right, but they had each seen only one season in the trees life. He told them “You cannot judge a tree, or a person by only one season and its true nature the pleasure, joy, and love that come from that life can only be judged at the end, when all the seasons are up.” If you give up when its winter, you will miss the promise of your spring, the beauty of your summer, harvest of your fall.

There is a form for this and it is in three parts. First, tell them(the audience) what you are going to tell them. Then tell them, and finally tell them what you told them. Parts one and three are short and most of the information is in part two. It works like this.Lets say you are asked to write a 200-word composition about your visit to the Great Wall. You would begin with an opening sentence or two saying something like “The Great Wall of China is a national landmarkthat is famous around the world. I visited it last summer and I want to tell you about it.” That uses about 25 words to tell them what you are going to tell them.The second part would be about 150 words and would contain information about the Great Wall such as how long it is, when it was built, who built it and why, the fact that it is one of the seven wonders of the world and you would talk about how you felt and what you
