2．As I walked along the Edgware Road，I felt as though the world was closing in on me．All the sounds I take for granted，had gone．I had entered a world of silence．This unsettling experience occurred a few weeks ago when I agreed to go deaf for the day to support the work of the charity Hearing Dogs for Deaf People，for which I am an ambassador．
When I managed to take a cab to the office of my manager，Gavin，I couldn't hear what the taxi driver was saying to me．Conversation was impossible．Then，when I reached the office，I had to ring the intercom five times as I couldn't hear a response．
Everybody said I was shouting at them---I simply wasn't aware of how loudly I was speaking as I couldn't hear my own voice．Gavin kept telling me my phone was ringing，but I didn't realize．I was too busy trying to concentrate on reading his lips．And when he tried to tell me a code to put into my phone，I had to keep asking him to repeat it，more slowly．Eventually he lost his patience and snapped at me："Just give me the phone!"I was shocked．
People couldn't be bothered to repeat themselves，so they kept trying to do things for me that I was perfectly capable of doing myself．I felt I'd lost control．
Being deaf for the day was extraordinarily tiring．I had to work so hard to"listen"with my eyes，get people's attention and use my other senses to make up for my lack of hearing．It was a huge，exhausting effort．
Until that experience I didn't realize how much I took my own hearing for granted，or the sorts of emotions and experiences deaf people go through．If a deaf person asks you to repeat something，never think："It doesn't matter．"It does matter．

21．Why did the author focus on reading Gavin's lips？A
A．By doing this he could understand what Gavin was saying．
B．He wanted to be aware of what the code was．
C．He attempted to get the code into the phone by himself．
D．He didn't want to bother Gavin to repeat what he was saying．

A．Speak at the top of your voice if you can't hear others speaking．
B．Repeat things as slowly as possible for the deaf．
C．Take your own hearing for granted．
D．Do as many things as possible for the deaf．
23．What can be inferred from the passage？D
A．It's boring to live in a world of silence．
B．The author has to use gestures to communicate with his friends．
C．There are many other ways to help the deaf understand others．
D．Many ordinary people just take hearing for granted until they lose it．

19．One day，around Christmas time，fishermen off the west coast of Peru started on their traditional fishing trip．Much to their surprise，there were no fish!They knew immediately what had happened．Tales from years gone by had told them this was the result of El Nino which sometimes stop fishing for many months!
El Nino is a warm current that comes and goes along the west coast of South America．It got its name from fishermen in Peru more than a century ago．Every few years，they noticed a sudden warming in the normally cool Pacific water where they fished．Because this warming often came about around Christmas，they called it El Nino，which is Spanish for the"Christ Child"．Generally，El Nino occurs every three to seven years and lasts only a few weeks to a month or more．
El Nino warms the water it flows through．Because the fish and sea birds need cold water to live，many of them die when El Nino comes through．El Nino also causes both floods and droughts．It is believed that El Nino may have caused the 1993Mississippi and 1995California floods．And at the same time，it may have caused droughts in South America，Africa and Australia．
El Nino has occurred thirteen times within the last fifty years，bringing natural disasters to many countries such as Indonesia and Peru．However，El Nino does not often trouble China．During this period China was badly hit by El Nino only once．In 1998，North China had a terrible drought，while South China was troubled by floods．

16．A good teacher is many things to many people．In my own experience，the people I respect the most and think about the most are the teachers who demanded the most discipline （纪律） from their students．
I miss one teacher in particular that I had in high school．I think she was a good teacher because she was a very strict person．I remember very clearly a sign on her classroom door．It was a simple sign that said，"Laboratory：in this room the first five letters of the word was stressed not the last seven．"In other words，labor for her was more important than oratory，which means making speeches．
She prepared her work very carefully and told us to do the same．We got lots of homework from her．Once she had broken her arm，and everybody in the class thought that maybe the homework load would be reduced，but it continued just the same．She checked our work by stamping her name at the bottom of the papers to show that she had read them．
I think sometimes teachers who demand the most are liked the least．But as time goes by，this discipline really seems to benefit the students．
