语篇解读：
人们用嘴做很多事情，比如吃饭，谈话，喊叫，唱歌，微笑，接吻等。
在英语这种语方里，有很多表达是带有“mouth”这个单词的。
21．Whenwillapersonprobablysay“Donotbadmouthme.”？
A．Whenhefeelsdown.B．Whenheisregretful.
C．Whenheisspokenillof.D．Whenhegetsangry.
答案：
C 细节理解题。
根据第二段第一句．..ifyousaybadthingsaboutaperson，thepersonmightprotestandsay“Donotbadmouthme.”如果你说一个人的坏话，这个人可能会抗议说不要说我坏话。
speakillofsb.意为“说某人坏话”＝saybadthingsaboutsb.。
22．Ifapersonlivesfromhandtomouth,itimpliesthat________.
A．heisbadlyoffB．heishardworking

答案：
A 推理判断题。
根据第四段第四句Thisrichpersonistheoppositeofapersonwholivesfromhandtomouth.。
根据关键词theoppositeof（是……的对立面，和……是相反的）可推知，apersonwholivesfromhandtomouth.和thisrichperson是相对的，所以说是穷人（badlyoff）。

A．Ihaverunalongway

24．Whatismainlytalkedaboutinthetext?

B．Functionsoftheorgan“mouth”．
C．Opinionsabout“mouthypeople”．
D．Meaningsoftheword“mouth”．
答案：

IntheEnglishlanguage，therearemanyexpressionsusingtheword“mouth”．，下文列举了很多有关mouth的expressions。
所以A项符合题意。
B
