10、 return from school and spend the expected half hour recording the days events, feelings, and impressions in my little blue diary. I did not really need to express my emotions by way of words, but I gained a certain satisfaction from seeing my experiences forever recorded on paper. After all, isnt c
11、ollectingmemories a way of preserving the past?When I was thirteen years old, I went on a long journey on foot in a great valley, well-equipped with pens, a diary, and a camera. During the trip, I was busy recording every incident, name any place I came across. I felt proud to be spending my time pr
12、oductively, dutifully preserving for future generations a detaileddescriptionof my travels. On my last night there, I wandered out of my tent, diary in hand. The sky was clear and lit by the light of the moon, and the walls of the valley looked threatening behind their screen of shadows. I automatic
13、ally took out my penAt that point, I understood that nothing I wrote could ever match or replace the few seconds I allowed myself to experience the dramaticbeauty of the valley. All I remembered of the previous few days were the boring characterizations I had set down in my diary.Now, I only write i
14、n my diary when I need to write down a special thought or feeling. I still love to record ideas and quotations（经典语录） that touch me in books, or observations that are particularly meaningful. I take pictures, but not very oftenonly of objects I find really beautiful. Im no longer blindly satisfied wi
15、th having something to remember when I grow old. I realize that life will simply pass me by if I stay behind the camera, busy preserving the present so as to live it in the future.I dont want to wake up one day and have nothing but a pile of pictures and notes. Maybe I wont have as many exact repres
16、entations of people and places；maybe Ill forget certain facts, but at least the experiences will always remain inside me. I dont live to make memoriesI just live, and the memories form themselves.21. Before the age of thirteen, the author regarded keeping a diary as a way of _.A. observing her schoo
17、l routine B. expressing her satisfactionC. impressing her classmates D. preserving her history22. What does the author put in her diary now?A. Notes and beautiful pictures. B. Special thoughts and feelings.C. Detailed accounts of daily activities. D. Descriptions of unforgettable events.23. The auth
18、or comes to realize that to live a meaningful life is _.A. to experience it B. to live the present in the futureC. to make memories D. to give accuraterepresentations of itBParents and kids today dress alike, listen to the same music, and are friends. Is this a good thing? Sometimes, when Mr. Ballme
19、r and his 16-year-old daughter, Elizabeth, listen to rock music together and talk about interests both enjoy, such as pop culture, he remembers his more distant relationship with his parents when he was a teenager. “I would never have said to my mom, Hey, the new Weezer album is really great. How do
20、 you like it?” says Ballmer. “There was just a complete gap in taste.” Music was not the only gulf. From clothing and hairstyles to activities and expectations, earlier generations of parents and children often appeared to move in separate orbits（轨道）. Today, the generation gap has not disappeared, b
21、ut it is getting narrow in many families. Conversations on subjects such as sex and drugs would not have taken place a generation ago. Now they are comfortable and common. And parent-child activities, from shopping to sports, involve a feeling of trust and friendship that can continue into adulthood
22、. No wonder greeting cards today carry the message, “To my mother, my best friend.” But family experts warn that the new equality can also result in less respect for parents. “Theres still a lot of strictness and authority on the part of parents out there, but there is a change happening,” says Kerr
23、ie, a psychology professor at Lebanon Valley College. “In the middle of that change, there is a lot of confusion among parents.” Family researchers offer a variety of reasons for these evolving roles and attitudes. They see the 1960s as a turning point. Great cultural changes led to more open commun
24、ication and a more democratic process that encourages everyone to have a say. “My parents were on the before side of that change, but todays parents, the 40-year-olds, were on the after side,” explains Mr. Ballmer. “Its not something easily accomplished by parents these days, because life is more di
25、fficult to understand or deal with, but sharing interests does make it more fun to be a parent now.”24. The underlined word “gulf” in Para. 4 most probably means _. A. interest B. distance C. difference D. separation25. The change in todays parent-child relationship is _.A. more confusion among pare
26、nts B. new equality between parents and children C. less respect for parents from children D. more strictness and authority on the part of parents26. The purpose of the passage is to _.A. describe the difficulties todays parents have met withB. discuss the development of the parent-child relationshi

We are making efforts to keep our culture alive through the annual Bird Language Festival.”Besides, the bird language has been required to be taught at primary schools since 2014 by district authorities in order to instil（逐步实施）the practice in younger generations.27What
