Keep thinking about it and I will ask you again."Several years 17 , she asked me again. This time I tol d her, "Mommy, sight is very important to 18 , so it must be our 19 ."She 20 me and told me, "You are learning fast, 21 the answer is not correct because there are many people who are blind."Over the next few years, she asked me a few more times and always her answer was, "22 , but you are getting smarter every year, my child."Then last year, my grandpa 23 .

As more and more people came to 31 in Hong Kong, these trees were cut d own and burnt. Now there is 32 forest left, though there are still some small areas covered with trees. We call these woods.Elephants, tigers and many 33 animals were living in the thick forest. When people came to live in Hong Kong, the number of 34 began to decrease.(减少) Early farmers grew rice and 35 pigs and chickens in the vall eys. They cut d own the trees and burnt them. They needed 36 to keep themselves warm in winter, to cook their food and to keep away the dangerous animals. El ephants quickly disappeared because there was not enough food for them. 37 did most of the wolves and tigers. Monkeys and many other animals soon 38 in the same way.You might think that there are no l onger any animals in Hong Kong except in the 39 . But there are still about 36 different kinds of animals 40 there. One of the most interesting Hong Kong's animals is the barking deer.

They were 47 that this woul d help to save energy, reduce pollution and provide free public transport. The group painted hundreds of bicycles 48 and placed them in public places around Amsterdam for people to use. 49 was all owed to take them and use them for short journeys, whether he was a l ocal or a foreigner. Wherever someone finished a journey, they woul d50 the bike there for someone else to use. The problem was that it didn't work—51took all the bicycl es within weeks!52 , more than thirty yea rs later, the “white bike” is back in town—this time with a computer chip(芯片) to 53 its every move! To take a bicycle, you have to put a special card inside. The new “white bike” is not white any more but is an unusual 54 with bright col ours. The bikes are parked at special parking places and people who want to use them have to take them to another place that has enough room.There is already l ess traffic in central Amsterdam, 55 both locals and tourists have been using the “white bikes”.

And if th e teacher didn’t tell me to have a seat, I always 56 to sit at the back of the classroom.All this changed after I joined a sports team. It began when a teacher advised me to join the basketball team. At first I thought it was a crazy id ea because I didn’t have a good sense of balance(平衡), and I didn’t have the 57 to keep up with the others in the team and they would laugh at me. But because the teacher kept insisting on(坚持)my “58 for it”, I d ecided to give a try.Getting up the courage(勇气) to try was only the half of it! When I first started 59the practice courses, I didn’t 60 know the rules of the game. Sometimes I’d get confused (迷惑的) and take a shot at the wrong direction — which mad e me feel really silly.61 , I wasn’t the only one “new” at the game, so I d ecided to l earn the game, d o my best at each practice course, and not be too hard on myself for the things I didn’t know.I practiced and practiced. Soon I knew the 62 and the “moves”. Being part of a team was not so difficult. I didn’t have enough confidence(自信), 63 very soon I found the exciting part for me was WINNING. With time, I l earned how to play and mad e friends. I never had so much fun!With more self-confidence from teachers and classmates. I ha ve gone from “64 ” in the back of the classroom and not wanting to call attention(关注) to myself, 65 raising my hand —even when I sometimes wasn’t and not 100 percent sure I had the right answer.

So I stopped to go to law school.Quickly I realized that I did not enjoy practicing law, so I stopped practicing law and began to focus on writing.

They say more Americans need to take a nap—that is to rest for a short period in the middle of the day. They give people advice to sleep lightly before continuing with other activities. The experts say naps might improve health by reducing pressure.Some European and Latin American companies have supported the idea of napping for many years. They ask people to leave work, go home and have a nap before returning. In the United States, some companies let workers rest simply in their offices. They believe this can help workers make fewer mistakes and also increase the amount of work that a person can do.Sleep experts say it is likely that people make more mistakes at work than at other times. They say people should not carry out important tasks when they feel sleepy. And they say the best thing to do is to take a nap. About twenty minutes of rest is all you need. Experts say this provides extra energy and can increase your effects until the end of the day. But experts said that a nap should last no more than twenty to thirty minutes.

It is said that if you take care of your body, then you can surely be healthy. That is why our eyes should be given a lot of care. Natural eye care should be put in a number one place.There are several causes leading to poor eyesight like not enough food, genes (基因) and aging (老化). Televisions, computers and reading are also the causes of having poor eyesight. If you happen to work in front of the computer, it is best to take a break every once in a while.Something dirty can cause redness and they will make you feel uncomfortable. It is bad for your eyes too. If this happens, the best way is to clean your eyes by using cold water. You must also try your best to protect your eyes from harmful things. For example, sunglasses are not just for fashion but they can also serve as a great way to protect your eyesight from UVrays.Eating healthy foods will do good to your eyesight. Remember that vitamins A, C and E are good for eyes. Try to eat food groups that have these vitamins. And you should do eye exercises because exercise protects your eyesight too. If a person exercises regularly (定期地) and eats the right kind of food, his eyes will stay in good condition for a long time.All above are natural ways of eye care that help us keep healthy eyes. Being happy all the time can be helpful to a person’s eyesight, too.

Those with the right genes can live to more than 100 years. They also pass those genes to their children. So if a person’s parents live long, he or she will probably live long, too.” Dr. Perls also said, “You may not have those genes. But if you don’t smoke, don’t drink too much, and do exercise or do other things to relax, you still can live long.”1.

As more and more people came to 31 in Hong Kong, these trees were cut d own and burnt. Now there is 32 forest left, though there are still some small areas covered with trees. We call these woods.Elephants, tigers and many 33 animals were living in the thick forest. When people came to live in Hong Kong, the number of 34 began to decrease.(减少) Early farmers grew rice and 35 pigs and chickens in the vall eys. They cut d own the trees and burnt them. They needed 36 to keep themselves warm in winter, to cook their food and to keep away the dangerous animals.

They were 47 that this woul d help to save energy, reduce pollution and provide free public transport. The group painted hundreds of bicycles 48 and placed them in public places around Amsterdam for people to use. 49 was all owed to take them and use them for short journeys, whether he was a l ocal or a foreigner. Wherever someone finished a journey, they woul d50 the bike there for someone else to use. The problem was that it didn't work—51took all the bicycl es within weeks!52 , more than thirty y ears later, the “white bike” is back in town—this time with a computer chip(芯片) to 53 its every move! To take a bicycle, you have to put a special card inside. The new “white bike” is not white any more but is an unusual 54 with bright col ours. The bikes are parked at special parking places and people who want to use them have to take them to another place that has enough room.There is already l ess traffic in central Amsterdam, 55 both locals and tourists have been using the “white bikes”.

At first I thought it was a crazy id ea because I didn’t have a good sense of balance(平衡), and I didn’t have the 57 to keep up with the others in the team and they would laugh at me. But because the teacher kept insisting on(坚持)my “58 for it”, I d ecided to give a try.Getting up the courage(勇气) to try was only the half of it!

Today I'm going to talk to you about my understanding of learning history.1 You may often wonder why we students should study something that has nothing to do with our own lives. If you think that way, I should say you are far from the truth.In fact, if we study history, we can learn quite a lot about personal stories and events(事件). 2 Studying the past helps us to understand what our ancestors'(祖先) lives were like. And it also helps us to see how their experiences have shaped our own life.To be honest, not everything that happened in the past is good. Some of them helps us understand the mistakes of the past. And these mistakes will help people not to do the same wrong things. 3Whether we like the subject of history or not, we must understand the importance of the events and the people who came before us. And the decisions of ourown generation(一代人) will finally influence those who come after us. 4 History is not just a study of the past. History is the study of people, places, and eventsthat can influence the future.5 Or do you have any doubt(疑问) about learning history? If you have any question, just feel free to ask.A. In this only way, the world is truly connected.B. The mistakes of the past won't help us.C. Now do you still think studying history is a sad thing?D. Many of you may think it is a terrible thing to study history.E. Their ideas often solved many of our problems and troubles.F. People often learn from the past to have a better future.1. 2. 3. 4. 5.Passage4语法填空These days, I have lots of problems. Firstly, I'm not happy in class.

This could be exciting news. If the cancer is found early enough, there is still time to stop it from getting worse.Dogs have 20 to 40 times as many smell receptors(嗅觉接收器) as humans do. There are special cells(细胞) in the nose. Also, a dog's sense of smell may be 10,000 to 100,000 times stronger than ours. But can dogs really smell illnesses?PSF researcher McCulloch and his team asked four healthy people and one with cancer to blow into bottles. The bottles were then placed in different rooms. Finally, the dogs were asked to smell the bottles.McCulloch says that dogs really can smell illnesses. "We were very surprised by how good they were," he told CNN. "They were recognizing who had cancer, and they were also saying who didn't." Each dog had been trained for three weeks to sit when it smelled cancer. 99% of the time, the dogs sat next to the bottles with cancer.No lab test for cancer has given more correct results than this experiment. The results are so amazing that many experts(专家) question the dogs' smelling power. They want to know if there were other reasons why the dogs did so well. For example, how the dogs acted could have depended on the way of training.However, most experts agree that this study is important. The information could help scientists develop a new and simple way to deal with cancer in the future. Once again, humans may be getting a helping foot—or nose—from their best animal friends.36. Researchers at PSF trained dogs to ______.A. smell cancerB. check the lab testC. work out the treatmentD. develop their sense of smell37. The underlined word "They" in the fourth paragraph refers to(指代) _____.A. researchersB. patientsC. expertsD. dogs38. What do we know from the passage?A. Experiment results depend on the number of dogs.B. Dogs might be able to help with medical problems.C. Dogs were allowed to smell the bottles in the same room.D. Researchers have found other reasons why the dogs did so well.Fiona Famous was a very popular girl at school and she got along with everyone.

Fiona said."My dear, you can't be a close friend to everybody," her mother said. "It's only possible to have a few true friends. The others will be playmates or acquaintances."Hearing this, Fiona was hopeful that she would finally make some true friends. That night, in bed, she thought about what she could do to get them.She thought about her mother.
