21、 For the past few months, my three-year-old daughter has spent an hour every week learning a foreign language. She walks into a small room in a local school, where she and a handful of three and four-year-old spend the next hour dancing to “La Vaca Lola”, a song about a Spanish cow, creating finger puppets(木偶) to voice what they like and don’t like (me gusta, no me gusta) and shouting out which animals are big (grande) or small (pequeno).
She tells us little about the classes. In fact, for the first few weeks, nothing at all. I begin to wonder if it was a huge mistake (each lesson works out at about £9) but then I show her “La Vaca Lola” on YouTube. She shouts vaca with enthusiasm and with what I hope is a Spanish accent.
The wish to enroll(使……加入) her in language lessons came, like most things, gradually and then in a sudden rush. In my day job, I read and edit stories about the Chinese economy. For a long time, I felt that it would be good for her to learn another language but I had no great plan as to when.
Then I read Edward Luce’s The Retreat of Western Liberalism and all my thoughts and worry about the economy combined into a panic. Waking in a sweat, it seemed obvious that if my daughter was to have any kind of future, she would have to learn another language. Ideally (理想地) immediately.
I thought about Mandarin Chinese, one of the top 10 languages most important for our future, according to the British Council (others include Arabic, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Russian, Dutch and Japanese). But there were no classes for young children nearby. There were, however, local Spanish classes—the number-one language on the list. When she started to sing “Incy Wincy Spider” in Spanish and English—helped by a Spanish nursery worker-our decision was made.
【1】What can we learn about the author’s daughter from the first paragraph?
A.She uses finger puppets to make her voice heard.
B.She is the oldest student in her Spanish class.
C.She learns Spanish by dancing to songs.
D.She has learnt Spanish for one month.
【2】How did the author feel about her daughter’s class at first?
A.Proud. B.Surprised. C.Delighted D.Doubtful.
【3】Why did the author ask her daughter to learn a foreign language?
A.To prepare her for the coming school education.
B.To equip her for her future.
C.To encourage her to have belief in herself.
D.To develop her interest in singing.
【4】What made the author decide to enroll her daughter in Spanish lessons?
A.Her performance. B.Her great interest.
C.The nursery worker’s suggestion. D.The fast-growing economy.

23、On a freezing afternoon, I picked up a wallet in the street. There was no identification(身份证) inside. Just three dollars, and an old letter that looked as if it had been carried around for years. I opened the letter and saw that it had been written in 1924——almost 60 years ago！ I read it carefully, hoping to find some clue(线索) to find the wallet’s owner.
It was a “Dear John” letter. The writer, in a delicate script(娟秀的字迹),told her lover, whose name was Michael, that her mother did not allow her to see him again. It was signed Hannah and her phone number. So I called.
“No, of course! We bought this house from Hannah thirty years ago. Hannah had to live in the nursing home many years ago. Maybe you can go there.”
Then I phoned the nursing home and was told, “Yes, Hannah is with us. Hannah was a sweet, silver-haired old-woman with a warm smile and friendly eyes. ”
I went up to the third floor of the nursing home. I showed her the wallet and the letter. The moment she saw it, she took a deep breath. “Young man,” she said, “this letter was the last contact I had with Michael. ” She then said deeply: “I loved him very much. But I was only sixteen and my mother felt I was too young. I never did marry, I guess no one ever matched up to Michael...”I took the elevator to the first floor. As I stood at the door, holding the letter to the guard. He looked at it closely and said, “Hey, I know ,the letter is Mr. Goldstein’s. He’s always losing it.”
“Who’s Mr. Goldstein?” I asked. “He’s one of the old-timers on the eighth floor. That’s Michael Goldstein’s wallet, for sure.” We went there where Michael Goldstein was reading a book. I told him I know where Hannah is. He grew pale. “Hannah? You know where she is? How is she? When that letter came, my life ended. I never married. I guess I’ve always loved her.”
“Michael,” I said. “Come with me.” We three took the elevator to the third floor. We walked toward the Hannah’s room, still watching TV. Michael Goldstein went over to her. “Hannah,” he said softly. “Do you know me? Hannah, I’m Michael, Michael Goldstein. Do you remember?”
“Michael? Michael? It’s you!” He walked slowly and they embraced(拥抱) tearfully. A perfect ending for a love affair that had lasted nearly 60 years.

25、Often, we know what makes us happy... but, despite this, often we don’t put the theory into action. Why do I (the person who tells you that taking breaks _________ stress and makes you more efficient) sit at my computer eating my lunch? I know this is unhelpful for me, so what on earth is going on? It all started at a time of huge pressure when I was training, and I began eating my lunch at my desk to _________ time. I did it over and over again until it became _________ to my brain.
My brain will choose this route by default (默认情况下), because it is the most learned behaviour. Something in my office _________ (probably my stomach rumbling (发咕咕声) will send a signal to my brain that it’s lunchtime, and I will pick up my sandwich and eat it with very little _________. It is a no-brainer to my brain; it’s just what it does.
Habits don’t _________ new learning from the brain; they are stored as a sequence of activities in the brain. The brain adds a routine of behaviours together so they all happen _________ in sequence when activated by a signal (that rumbling stomach) to get us to a reward (my lunch), which _________ strengthens that learned behaviour. Your brain uses habits to _________ effort and save energy, and will default to these behaviours when signalled. How can we build happiness habits into our lives?
Step 1: What is it that you want to do
Decide what you want to __________ as small daily habits. Next, think about how and when you will do this. __________, consider the habits that affect happiness negatively and that you want to break. Like me, do you want to __________ eating lunch at your desk and get outside instead?
Step 2: Be __________ about your why
What will you gain from this new happiness habit? Why is it important to you? This helps you to want to make the effort to break your default habits.
Step 3: Be specific
Decide when specifically you will __________ your new habit and what you will do — for example, “I want to go for a walk to connect with nature at lunchtime.” Start as small as you can, because this is more likely to be achievable, repeatable and rewarding — three things we need to happen to shift from a(n) __________ new behaviour to a habit.
