A
When an earthquake hit a small town, many houses fell down. After the earthquake, all the newspapers reported many stories about some of the families who were in trouble.
One Sunday, when I was reading a newspaper, a special picture touched me. It gave the clothing sizes of each family member. I thought that this would be a good chance to teach my children to help those who were less lucky than themselves. I said to my seven-year-old twins,
Brad and Brett, and three-year-old daughter, Meghan, \now have nothing. We'll share what we have with them. \
I filled a box with foods and clothes. While I was doing this, I encouraged the children to choose their toys and donate some of their less favorite things. Meghan watched quietly as the boys took out their old toys and games and put them together. Then she walked away. A few minutes later she came back with Lucy, her much-loved doll. She put the doll on top of the other toys. \makes me happy, Mommy. Maybe she'll make another little girl happy, too. \
I looked at Meghan for a long moment. She taught me a lesson. It's easy to give something that we don't want any more, but hard to give what we cherish (珍爱) , isn't it? 21. According to the passage, the writer has _______________ children.

Once a young man hoped to study law and he wrote to Lincoln for advice, who lived most of his adult life as a practicing lawyer. Lincoln replied, \of yourself, the thing is more than half done already. Always keep in mind that your own decision to succeed is more important than any other thing. \
Lincoln knew this because he had gone through it all. He had never, in his life, had more than a total of one year's schooling. And books? Lincoln once said he had walked to borrow every book fifty miles away from his home. A fire was usually kept going all night in the small house and he read by the light of it.
He walked twenty or thirty miles to hear a speaker and , returning home, he practiced his talks everywhere-in the fields, in the woods, before the crowds. He joined several societies and practiced speaking on the topics of the day.
Being short of confidence always troubled him. He was shy before women. Even when he was in love with Mary Todd, he used to sit there, nervous and silent, unable to find words, listening while she did the talking. Yet that was the man who, by practice and home study, made himself into a famous speaker with great eloquence (雄辩) .
When he spoke of his own great painful experiences, he wrote, \make a lawyer of yourself, the thing is more than half done already. \24. What does the underlined word \
A. Having a luck. B. Making a living. C. Becoming a lawyer. D. Asking for advice. 25. What is the key point of the fourth paragraph?
A. Lincoln's eloquence. B. Lincoln's position. C. Lincoln's courage. D. Lincoln's progress.
