There was a man who had four sons.He wanted his sons to learn to be patient and wise.So he asked them to take turns looking at a pear tree that was far from their home.
The first son went in winter，the second in spring，the third in summer，and the youngest son in fall.After they came back，he called them together and asked them what they saw.
The first son said that the tree was ugly and weak.
The second son didn't think so—he said there were green buds in the tree and it was full of hope.
The third son didn't agree with them.He said there were many flowers that smelled sweet and the tree looked beautiful.
The last son also had his own idea.He said the tree was ripe and full of fruit.
The man then explained to his sons that they were all correct because each of them saw just one season in the tree's life.
He told them that you cannot judge（评价）a tree or a person by only one season.You can see how someone changes and grows as time goes by—some periods（期间）are happy，while others are sad.If you give up on someone when they are living through the "winter" of their lives，you will miss the promise of their spring，the beauty of their summer，and the greatness（伟大）of their fall.
16. Why did the man ask his four sons to look at the pear tree in turns？ ______
A. To teach them a lesson. B. To help the pear tree grow.
C. To ask them to be strong men. D. To enjoy this beautiful tree.
17. When did the third son visit the tree？ ______

There are many reasons which may influence（影响） adults and children to live a healthy life.
Nowadays people are very busy.Parents often work outside and they have no time to look after their children.Some parents expect their children to do a lot more at home to help them and teachers always give them a lot of homework to do.
The busy life also adds another reason：the need to use cars to get from one place to another quickly.
Today people always depend on technology（科技）.Computers，DVDs，CDs，televisions，and mobile phones have become main free activities，instead of more traditional and healthier activities full of exercise.This has led to a more sedentary lifestyle.
The media provide entertainment and information for people.Unluckily，they also help fast food get popular into people's busy life.It is easier at times to buy a take-away than prepare a meal.The media also make people do these things：the need to buy the most beautiful clothes and the newest computer games：the need to choose the best places to visit and to find the best things to do.
The environment is always changing.People almost pollute the air every day.and the air becomes worse and worse.This can be harmful to people who have breathing difficulties.
The most important reason is the strong wish to be healthy.Any person who wants to be healthy will find a way to be healthy—if he or she is smart and hard working enough!
20. Which isn't the reason why fast food becomes popular？ ______
A. It is very cheap.
B. The media help it become popular.
C. The busy lifestyle helps it become popular.
D. It's easier to buy than prepare a meal.
21. Which does the writer think is the most important factor（因素） influencing the healthy lifestyle？ ______
A. Pollution. B. Technology.
C. Cars. D. The wish to be healthy.
22. What might the underlined word "sedentary" mean in English？ ______
A. Have a lot of things to do.
B. Get less exercise or physical activities.
C. Stay away from the outside world.
D. Have a lot of worries and problems.
23. What is the main idea of the passage？ ______
A. What people should do every day to keep happy and healthy.
B. Why everyone wants to live a happy and healthy life.
C. Some things may influence people to live a healthy life.
D. Some excellent ways and delicious food for people to keep healthy.

Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents，however，it is not true.Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages.If it's hard for you to communicate with your parents，don't worry about it.Here are some suggestions for you to bridge generation gap（代沟）.
Don't argue with your parents.Your parents probably won't consider your ideas if you are shouting at them.Make sure you understand why you are unhappy.Then think about what you want to say to your parents.If you don't think you can speak to them at the moment，try writing a letter.
Try to reach a compromise（和解）.Perhaps you and your parents disagree（有分歧） on something.You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other.Michael's mother didn't agree with him about buying a car.They argued over it，but finally they came to a compromise.Michael bought the car，but only drove it on certain days.Of course your parents might refuse to compromise on something.In these situations，it is especially important to show love and respect（尊敬） to them.Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.
Talk about your values.The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own.Tell your parents what you care about，and why.Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life.
A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person.It is worth having a try.
24. Your parents probably won't consider your ideas if you ______ .
A. don't get to them often B. write a letter to them

（4）考查人称代词宾格。句意：我问她是否经常来乔氏超市读书。asked是动词，其后应跟宾语，she的宾格形式是her，可作宾语。故填her。
（5）考查动名词。句意：我一边看书一边等公共汽车回家。根据"while"后没有主语可知，"while"是介词，所以应该使用动名词。故填waiting。
（6）考查连词。句意：如果不太远的话，我想送她回家。根据句意可知，该句是if引导的条件状语从句，"it wasn't too far（不太远）"是"I wanted to take her home（我想带她回家）"的条件。故填if。
（7）考查一般过去时。句意：我说我女儿和我不着急，我们很乐意送她过去。这是描述的过去的事情，所以时态是一般过去时，主语是my daughter and I（我和女儿），be动词用were。故填were。
（8）考查形容词。句意：她对我女儿很细心。空处应填形容词作表语；be careful with表示"对......很细心"，固定短语。故填careful。
（9）考查一般过去时。句意：我相信我可爱的女儿给她的一天带来了微笑。根据情境可知，应该使用一般过去时，"bring"的过去式为"brought"。故填brought。
（10）考查动词。句意：这是一个很好的机会，可以在需要的时候载某人一程。be able to do sth.表示"能够做某事"，空处填动词原形。故填provide。
