May Day Basket
I clearly remember the May Day of the year that I was in fifth grade. That year I was faced with a challenge because of my best friend, Pam.
A new family recently had moved into our small town, and Pam was spending more and more time at their house. I felt
1 and left out.
When my mother asked me whether I would take a May Day basket to Pam’s house, I answered angrily, “Of course not!” My mother stopped what she was doing and 2 me in her arms. She told me that I would have many other friends in my lifetime.
“But Pam was my best friend ever,” I cried.
Mum told me that circumstances (环境) change and people change. She 3 that one of the great things friends can do is to give each other a chance to grow, to change and to develop into what they want to be. And sometimes, she said, that friends would 4 other people to spend time with. It’s nothing wrong with that.
She went on to say that I needed to forgive Pam for hurting me and that I could express that forgiveness (宽恕) by giving her a May Day basket.
It was a 5 decision, but I decided to give Pam a basket. I made an extra special basket of flowers with lots of yellow because that was Pam’s favorite 6 . I asked my two sisters to help me deliver my basket of forgiveness. As we 7 from our hiding place, Pam picked up the flowers, pressed her face into them and said 8 enough for us to hear, “Thank you, Susie, I hoped you wouldn’t forget me!”
That day, I made a decision that changed my life: I decided to hold my friends in my heart, but not in my expectation of them, allowing them space to grow and to change – with or without me.

13、“My dear Mr Bennet,” said his lady to him one day, “have you heard that Netherfield Park is let (出租) at last?”Mr Bennet replied that he had not.
“But it is,” returned she, “for Mrs Long has just been here, and she told me all about it.”
Mr Bennet made no answer.
“Do not you want to know who has taken it?” cried his wife impatiently.
“You want to tell me, and I have no objection (反对) to hearing it.”
This was invitation enough.
“Why, my dear, you must know, Mrs Long says that Netherfield is taken by a young man of large fortune (财富) from the north of England; that he came down on Monday to see the place, and was so satisfied with it that he agreed immediately(立即) )with Mr Morris, the owner of Netherfield, and some of his servants(仆人) are to be in the house by the end of next week.”
“What is his name?”
“Bingley.”
“Is he married or single?”
“Oh! Single, my dear, to be sure! A single man of large fortune; four or five thousand a year. What a fine thing for our girls! It is probable that he may fall in love with one of them, and so you must visit him as soon as he comes.”
“I see no chance for that. You and the girls may go, or you may send them by themselves, which perhaps will be still
better; for, as you are as handsome as any of them, Mr Bingley might like you the best of all.”
“But, my dear, you must indeed go and see Mr Bingley when he comes into the neighbourhood.”
“It is more than what I should do, honestly speaking.”
“But consider your daughters.Sir William and Lady Lucas have decided to go, for in general, you know they visit no new comers. Indeed you must go, for it will be impossible for us to visit him, if you do not.”
But in fact Mr Bennet was among the earliest of those who waited to visit Mr Bingley. He had always planned to visit him, though to the last always lying to his wife that he would not go.
1．How did Mrs Bennet feel when she heard that Bingley would move there?
A．Excited and hopeful. B．Surprised and crazy.
C．Nervous and curious. D．Pleased and proud.
2．Why did Mr Bennet show no interest in Mr Bingley’s moving there when his wife talked about it?
A．Because his daughters were not pretty enough.
B．Because his wife was prettier than his daughters.
C．Because he didn’t want to show his true feelings to others.
D．Because he didn’t care about his daughters’ happiness.
3．From the conversation between Mr and Mrs Bennet, we can conclude that Mrs Bennet .
A．wanted to tell her husband something about their new neighbor
B．wanted to learn more about their new neighbor
C．wanted to persuade(说服) her husband to see the young man
D．asked her husband to let her visit the new neighbor

14、Anyone who has had a long-term illness knows that recovering at home can be lonely. This is can be especially true of children. They may feel isolated（孤立的）from their friends and classmates. Now, a small robot may help children who are recovering from a long-term illness in the hospital or at home. The robot takes their place at school. Through the robot, the children can hear their teachers and friends. They can also take part in classroom activities from wherever they are recovering – whether at home or from a hospital bed.
The robot is called AV1.It is created by a company called “No Isolation”. A V1 goes to school for a child who is at home while recovering from a long-term illness. And the child’s school friends must help. They carry the r obot between classes and place the robot on the child’s desk.
Dolva, one co-funder （创始人）of No Isolation.explains how the robot AV1 works. She says, “the robot sits at the child's desk in the classroom and the child at home uses a tablet（平板电脑）or a phone to start it, control its movement
with touch, and talk through it. So the robot becomes the eyes, the ears and the voice of the child at school.” The robot is equipped with speakers, microphones and cameras that make communicating easy. Moreover，The A VI was designed to be tough. It is water-resistant(防水) and can take a fall from a desk without damage. Inside A V1 is a small computer connected to a 4G network. AV1 is large and looks like a human for a reason. Dolva thinks this is important because the robot is expected to be a friend to the children.
The robot just became available to the public. Hopefully A V1 will help some children feel less lonely while they are absent from class.
1．Where can we most probably read this passage?
A．In a health report B．In a science magazine

15、It was Saturday morning and I asked seven-year-old Kelley to let her daddy take her to gym class. But she didn’t agree. I explained that some f riends would visit our house that day and I had to clean the house. But the truth was, I had spent 20 years watching Kelley’s five elder brothers and sisters take lessons and I just wanted to get out of it.
However, seeing Kelley was going to cry, I decided to do this once more.
Looking through the door, I watched as the teacher led the students to a rope hanging in the corner of the gym. One after another, each child in line climbed up the thick rope while the teacher held it at the bottom. Then it was Kel ley’s turn—the youngest in the class. With a big smile, she climbed higher and higher. Then it happened. About halfway up, the teacher loudly warned, “Don’t go up any farther than you’re able to come down.”
Kelley halted... Then slowly moved down all the way to the floor. I knew she was heading to the top of that rope and was perfectly capable (能胜任的) of reaching it. Why did she stop? I questioned her on the way home.
“Kelley, could you have climbed all the way to the top?”
“Yes,” she quietly replied.
“Then why didn’t you keep going?”
Silence.
“Was it because of what the teacher said?” I asked.
She nodded.
I knew it was time to teach.
“Kelley, don’t let anybody make you doubt yourself. Don’t ever let anyone keep you from knowing what you can do... Even though they seem bigger, or smarter or older. Will you remember that?” I said.
“Yes!” she answered quickly.
I was glad I chose to take Kelley to the class and got the opportunity to teach her an important lesson.

16、Here is a story: A man sees a butterfly. The butterfly tries to get out of its chrysalis（蛹）. Feeling sorry for it, the man decides to help. He cuts the chrysalis and the butterfly comes out easily. Surprisingly enough, the butterfly is unable to fly. If the butterfly doesn’t struggle to leave the chrysalis, it can fly! The struggle develops the energy in the butterfly which makes it fly. Similarly, the challenges of life bring out the best in young people and make them fly.
When people are young, meeting and overcoming challenges will make them strong and ready to face life. When we look at successful people, we see that the most successful of them are people who have had to struggle. One famous businessman, who now owns many big supermarkets, used to carry clothes on his back and sell them from door to door when he was young. Another successful man is Dennis. His father died when he was only twenty. His father’s death forced him to mature fast. He had to bring up a family of nine people. He took up the challenges and overcame them. Today his brothers and sisters are leading successful lives.
Sometimes challenges do not appear to us because we keep away from them. So some parents and teachers actively encourage young people to face challenges. They might organize some activities for young people which provide them with challenges, like rock-climbing, camping, volunteer work and so on. However, just passing exams will not prepare a person for life. We must meet and overcome challenges. The young people of today will become the leaders of tomorrow. For countries to continue to become successful, it is important that the young people learn to meet challenges and overcome them.
1．From the story we kn ow that the butterfly can’t fly because __________________.
A．it gets out by itself B．the man feels sorry for it
C．it tries to challenges itself D．the man helps it come out
2．Dennis’s example shows that successful people should ____________.
A．overcome the difficulties
B．take up business early
C．become the leaders of tomorrow
D．sell clothes from door to door
3．The meaning of the underline word “mature” in the passage is “_______”.
A．wake up B．give up
C．grow up D．bring up
4．What is the writes trying to do in this passage?
A．Describe where a butterfly comes from
B．Encourage young people to face challenges
C．Suggest how to become a successful businessman.
D．Explain what will happen if a person fails the exam.
5．What is the best title for this passage?
A．Successful People Have a Sense of Achievement
B．Y oung People Must Develop Their Energy Actively
C．Countries Should Continue to Become Successful
D．Challenges of Life Bring Out the Best in Young People

Car-hailing company DiDi signed an agreement with TAL Education Group to provide free online courses for the children of taxi drivers. The courses, worth 30 million yuan, cover all subjects from primary to high school. Children can study courses at home, saving parents’ time to spend or pick up children from off-line after-school classes. According to Zhu Jingshi, vice president of DiDi, all 153 million registered (注册) taxi drivers of DiDi can ask for the courses on the company’s mobile app. The car-hailing company will evaluate (评价) the drivers and provide courses on the basis of the time they became registered drivers with the company, the number of passengers served and evaluation from passengers.

More than 70 percent of them have children under 18 but very few have time to be with family and children. Only 8 percent of them said they had guided their children in doing homework.

19、How to save time
We have ever heard of “Time is money. Time is life”.
Time is very important to everyone. But we can see people waste their time everywhere. They spend much time playing computer games, drinking, sleeping late in the morning and so on.
It’s necessary for us to save our valuable time. We have to listen to our teachers carefully in class so that we can save more time to learn others after class. We should make a plan to study at home so that we can learn more with less time. We should spend more time reading instead of playing games.
If we can make good use of time we are sure to get more. To save time is to save life. Let’s save time from now on.。
