22．（8分）Dear Mom and Dad,
Camp is great! I have met a lot of new friends. Jim is from California, Eric is from Iowa, and Tony is from Missouri. We have a great time together, swimming, boating, hiking, and playing tricks on other campers! Every night, we go to another tent secretly and try to scare other campers by making scary noises. It’s so funny to see them run out screaming! Now, don’t worry, Mom. I’m not going to get caught like I did last year.
One thing that is different from last year is how many bugs (昆虫) there are! I have at least 100 mosquito bites and about 25 ant bites. Every time I go outside, horseflies chase me, too! Other than all these buggy bugs, I’m having the best time!
Love,
Tyler
Dear Tyler,
Are you sure you are okay? All of those bugs sound awful! Have you used all of the “Itch-Be-Gone” cream I got you? How about the “Ants’k Awful” lotions (护肤液) for the ant bites? You and your aunt Ethel have always seemed to attract those nasty fire ants.
Now Tyler, I am very happy that you have met some new friends and that you are having fun together. However, you MUST stop trying to scare other campers. Remember, honey, some campers may be scared easily. I want you to apologize for any anxiety you may have caused them and start being the nice, polite boy that I know you are. Do you hear me, Tyler? Please be careful. I want you to come here safely.
Love,
Mom

23．（8分） I have a younger brother. To me, he is a fourteen-year-old kid named Joe, with blond hair and blue eyes. To others, he is different. Where I see a kid who just needs a lot more attention, others see a mentally disabled boy, a kid who cannot walk or talk or think for himself. I see someone who just makes daily routine a bit less routine. Others see an annoyance, I a bother.
This is not to say that I have never felt resentful(怨恨的) toward Joe. He is my brother, and with that comes responsibility. “Gina, could you stay in tonight and watch your brother?” “Gina, do me a favor and feed him dinner and change his diaper(尿布) later, please?” “Could you come home right after school today and get Joe off the bus?”
These are phrases that I have heard since I was twelve. And sure, they have made me resent my brother to a certain extent. I would think: that’s not fair! Everyone else can stay after and be a member of this club, or get extra help from that teacher. Or, all my friends are going out tonight, why can’t I? And, how come I have to feed him? He is not my son!
However, the small amount of resentment I feel toward my brother is erased a thousand times over by what I have learned from him. Besides making me responsible from a young age, and helping me be more accepting of all kinds of people, he has taught me to be thankful for what I have.
I know that there are moments in my life that I should cherish and that Joe will never experience. He will never laugh so hard that he cries. He will never feel the glory of a straight-A report card. He will never comfort a best friend crying on his shoulder. And he will never know how much his family love him.
Because he will never know, it is up to me to know, every second, how lucky I am. It is up to me to realize that life should be lived to its fullest, and that you should always, always be grateful that God, or whoever are the powers that be, gave you the ability to live your life the way you were meant to live it.
1、We know from the first paragraph that Gina's brother __________.
A．causes trouble to neighbours B．pays more attention to others
C．lives with mental disability D．considers daily routine a bother
2、If Mother asks Gina to look after her brother now, what will she probably answer?
A．I'm afraid not. B．No problem！
C．It depends. D．It's not fair！
3、The passage intends to tell us that we should _____________.
A．value the glory of success B．appreciate what life gives us
C．comfort unfortunate people D．treasure meaningful moments
