21. As prices and building costs keep rising, the “do-it-yourself” （DIY） trend in the US continues to grow．
“we needed furniture for our living room,” says John Ross, “and we just didn’t have enough money to buy it．So we decided to try making a few tables and chairs．” John got married six months ago, and like many young people these days, they are struggling to make a home at a time when the cost of living is very high．The Rosses took a 2-week course for $280 at a night school．Now they build all their furniture and make repairs around the house．
Jim Hatfield has three boys and his wife died．He has a full-time job at home as well as in a shoe-making factory．Last month, he received a car repair bill for $520．“I was deeply upset about it．Now I have finished a car repair course．I should be able to fix the car by myself．” John and Jim are not unusual people．Most families in the country are doing everything they can to save money so they can fight the high cost of living．If you want to become a “do-it-yourselfer”, you can go to DIY classes．And for those who don’t have time to take a course, there are books that tell you how you can do things yourself．
65. We can learn from the text that many newly married people_______． A．find it hard to pay for what they need B．have to learn to make their own furniture C．take DIY courses run by the government
D．seldom go to a department store to buy things
66. John and his wife went to evening classes to learn how to ______． A．run a DIY shop B．make or repair things C．save time and money D．improve the quality of life 67. Jim decided to become a do-it-yourselfer when______

22. If Confucius（孔子）were still alive today and could celebrate his September 28 birthday with a big cake, there would be a lot of candles. He’d need a fan or a strong wind to help him put them out.
While many people in China will remember Confucius on his special day, few people in the United States will give him a passing thought. It’s nothing personal. Most Americans don’t even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes.
But this doesn’t mean that Americans don’t care about Confucius. In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China.
In the past two decades, the Chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities. More recently, the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80 countries. These schools teach both Chinese language and culture. The main courses of Chinese culture usually include Chinese art, history and philosophy（哲学）. Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantage of the ancient Chinese wisdom to make up for the drawbacks of Westerners philosophy. Students in the United States, at the same time, are racing to learn Chinese. So they will be ready for life in a world where China is an equal power with the United States. Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers.
So the old thinker’s ideas are still alive and well.
Today China attracts the West more than ever, and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West.
As for the old thinker, he will not soon be forgotten by people in the West, even if his birthday is. 64. The opening paragraph is mainly intended to ________ A. provide some key facts about Confucius B. attract the readers’ interest in the subject C. show great respect for the ancient thinker
D. prove the popularity of modern birthday celebrations 65. We can learn from Paragraph 4 that American students______ A. have a great interest in studying Chinese B. take an active part in Chinese competitions C. try to get high scores in Chinese exams D. fight for a chance to learn Chinese 66. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Forgotten Wisdom in America B. Huge Fans of the Chinese Language C. Chinese Culture for Westerners D. Old Thinker with a Big Future 67. The passage is likely to appear in ___________.
A. a biography B. a history paper C. a newspaper D. a philosophy textbook 参考答案： BADC
