People who knew them both could hardly believe they were from the same planet, let alone the same family. The boys were not unkind toward one another,

16、 but their personalities（个性）were so different that it was difficult for them to reach a decision they both liked. Their mother frequently played the judge in their disagreement.Ishmael, the older brother, was athletic. He played baseball, football, and basketball. Isadore, the younger brother, hated

17、 sports. He was quieter and less active than his brother. He preferred spending his time on the computer, making short videos and writing short articles. Ishmael loved classic rock. He listened to bands like the Beatles. Isadore didnt care much for those bands. He preferred music from Central Africa

18、. Luckily for their parents, both boys enjoyed listening to music through headphones.One other thing the brothers did agree on was that they wanted a pet. Mom had resisted getting one, but after both brothers had begged, she finally agreed. “We can get a pet, as long as you two take care of it,” she

19、 said. “That means you do the feeding, you do the training, and if it needs to be walked, you do the walking. “No problem, Mom,” Ishmael and Isadore said together. “Good, we all agree,” Mom said. “Now, what kind of pet are we going to get?”41.

23、s a bright-eyed girl heading off to Howard University, aiming at a legal career and dreaming of sitting on a Supreme Court bench somewhere. Twenty-one years later I am still a bright-eyed dreamer and one with quite a different tale to tell. My grandma, an amazing woman, graduated from college at the

24、 age of 65. She was the first in our family to reach that goal. But one year after I started college, she developed cancer. I made the choice to withdraw from college to care for her. It meant that school and my personal dream would have to wait. Then I got married with another dream: building my fa

25、mily with a combination of adopted and biological children. In 1999, we adopted our first son. To lay eyes on him was fantastic and very emotional. A year later came our second adopted boy，then followed son No. 3. In 2003, I gave birth to another boy. You can imagine how busy I became, raising four

26、boys under the age of 8! Our home was a complete zoo a joyous zoo. Not surprising, I never did make it back to college full-time. But I never gave up on the dream either. I had only one choice: to find a way. That meant taking as few as one class each semester. The hardest part was feeling guilty ab

27、out the time I spent away from the boys. They often wanted me to stay home with them. There certainly were times I wanted to quit, but I knew I should set an example for them to follow through the rest of their lives. In 2007, I graduated from the University of North Carolina. It took me over 21 yea

28、rs to get my college degree! I am not special, just single-minded. It always struck me that when youre looking at a big challenge from the outside it looks huge, but when youre in the midst of it, it just seems normal. Everything you want wont arrive in your life on one day. Its a process. Remember:

32、mined.B. Honest and responsible. C. Ambitious and SensitiveD. Innocent and single-mindedCJust as the teacher hands out the spelling test, you see Jeff pull out a small piece of paper with a lot of small words on it.

33、test, you see him looking back and forth between the teacher and his paper. Theres no mistaking it hes cheating.Cheating can happen in a lot of different ways. When people cheat, its not fair to other people, like the kids who studied for the test or who the true winners of a game were.Many people l

34、ike the action of cheating. It makes difficult things seem easy, like getting all the right answers on the test. But it doesnt solve the problem of not knowing the material and it wont help on the next testunless the person cheats again. Some people lose respect for cheaters and think less of them.

35、The cheaters themselves may feel bad because they know they are not really earning that good grade. And, if they get caught cheating, they will be in trouble at school, and maybe at home, too.Some kids cheat because theyre busy or lazy and they want to get good grades without spending the time study

36、ing. Other kids might feel like they cant pass the test without cheating.

And if y

37、ou dont have enough time to study for a test because of swim practice, you need to talk with your parents about how to balance swimming and school.

42、hat humans can put our water supply in danger, but we also affect our water supply in less obvious ways. You may wonder how paving(铺砌) a road can lead to less useable fresh water. A major part of the water we use every day is groundwater. Groundwater does not come from lakes or rivers. It comes from

43、 underground. The more roads and parking lots we pave, the less water can flow into the ground to become groundwater.Human activity is not responsible for all water shortages. Drier climates are of course more likely to have droughts than areas with more rainfall, but in any case, good management ca

44、n help to make sure there is enough water to meet our basic needs. Thinking about the way we use water every day can make a big difference, too.

69、 most was the shopkeepers kindness. It was the kindness that helped the author overcome the difficulties and warmed him up.

70、e when I found it difficult to learn chemistry well. Not only did I fall far behind with others, but also I lost heart.

As long as I do so, others can also feel the kindness.
