21、A man came home from work late, tired, to find his 5-year-old son waiting for him at the door.

“Daddy, how much money do you make an hour?”

“Oh,” the little boy answered, with his head down. He thought for a moment, looked up and said, “Daddy, could you lend me $10?”

22、   Soon computers and other machines will be able to remember you by looking at your eyes! The program works because everyone’s eyes are different. So in the future you won’t have to remember a number when you want to use a machine or take money out of a bank. You’ll just have to look at the machine and it will be able to tell who you are.

The eye-recognition (眼睛识别) program has already been tested in shops and banks in the USA, Britain, Spain, Italy and Turkey. Soon this technology (技术) will take the place of all other ways of finding out who people are.

However, scientists are also working on other systems (系统). Machines will soon be able to know you from the shape of your face or hand or even your smell! We already have machines that can tell who you are from your voice or the mark made by your finger.

Eye-recognition is better than other kinds because your eyes don’t change as you get older, or get dirty like hands or fingers. And even twins have different eyes. So the eye-recognition program can be up to 94% correct, depending on how good the technology is. However, some other programs may only be 51% correct at present. In Britain, it was found that 91% of people who had tried it said that they liked the idea of eye-recognition.

In the future your computer will be looking at you in the eye. So smile!

【1】How does the eye-recognition program work?

A.You write your number. B.You show your ID card.

C.You say your name. D.You look at the machine.

【2】How many ways will machines be able to know you soon?

A.One. B.Two. C.Three. D.Five.

【3】Why can the program be up to 94% correct?

A.Because eyes never change. B.Because hands or fingers can get dirty.

C.Because people like the idea of the program. D.Because the program is widely used around the world.

【4】Which of the following is TRUE?

A.The program is being tested in Japan.

B.Machines with other systems can also tell who you are.

C.91% of people like the idea of the program.

D.Computers can remember you by looking at your clothes.

24、Henry was a very vain（虚荣的）man and he spent plenty of time looking at himself in the mirror. He even went to the barber’s shop every week to have his hair cut. He was nearly fifty, but he didn’t want people to know his age, so he always tried his best to make himself look younger. He also spent most of his money on clothes. He believed that every woman thought he was handsome. He did not have women friends but he had an explanation（解释）for this, “I’m so excellent that the women can’t make a perfect match with（和……般配）me. That’s why they don’t make friends with me.”

One day he bought a new special shirt from a high-fashion men’s shop. It was very expensive. When he got home and took it out of the box, he found a note in it. The note said, “Please write to me and give me a photo of yourself.” The note was signed “Julia” and there was an address to write to. Henry wrote to Julia at once, telling her about himself. Then he put a photo of himself in the envelope（信封）and posted it.

A week passed and then he received a reply. He opened it quickly, hoping there would be a photo of a beautiful woman inside and that she would like to make friends with him.

However, it was very disappointing（令……失望的）to him. The letter said, “Dear Henry, thank you for writing to me. I work in the clothes factory. Everyone in the factory wants to know what kind of fool will buy such an ugly shirt.”

25、Dear Sir，

I think it is important for children to learn how to do chores and help their parents with housework. It's not enough to just get good grades 【1】 school. Children these days depend 【2】 their parents too much. They're always asking, “Could you get this for 【3】(I)？” or “Could you help me with that？” Doing chores helps to d【4】 children's independence and teaches them how to look after themselves. It a【5】  helps them to understand the idea of fairness. S【6】 they live in one house with their parents, they should know that everyone should do their part in keeping rooms clean and tidy. Our 【7】(neighbor)son got into a good college but during his first year, he had no idea about  【8】 to take care of himself. As a result, he often  【9】 (fall) ill and his grades dropped. The earlier kids learn to be independent, the 【10】 (good) it is for their future.
