When we think of 10-year-old girls, the first things that come to mind may be ballet, kitchen science experiments and crazy photo faces. There’s a special bond between young girls and their moms before life fills up with more demanding schoolwork, career choices and the stress of being a grown-up.
For Joyce Phillips, taking on adult emotions came sooner than expected. Her mother was diagnosed(诊断) with breast cancer when Joyce was 10 years old. The thought of losing her mother at such a young age must have been troubling Joyce. But instead of waiting out the process on the sidelines, Joyce decided to join the fight against cancer so that other kids wouldn’t have to experience the pain she was going through.
Joyce loves to sew. She wanted to make something to sell and also advertise her need for help. While trying to piece together a solution, she hit upon the ubiquitous coffee cup. People everywhere seem to be on the go in the morning with their cup of take-out coffee. So Joyce designed a coffee cup sleeve(杯套) and created her nonprofit Cozys for the Cure. It was a hit. Today, Joyce has raised over $120, 000 to help fund breast cancer research. It all started with a desire to help. She lets us know each of us has the ability to make a difference, no matter how old or how young.
Joyce’s mother won her fight with cancer, but unfortunately, many more women and mothers will be affected. With kids like Joyce in their corner, perhaps the next best treatment will come a little sooner, save a few more lives, and means mothers and daughters will have a little more time to have fun together.

When is the correct time to use the article (冠词) “a” and “an” We know “a bike” and “an apple”. But is it “a URL” or “an URL” What exactly is the rule Despite the confusion on when to use these two words, the rule regarding their use is actually quite simple.
The basic rule for using “a” in a sentence is：Use “a” before words, or letters that begin with a sound of a consonant (辅音字母), regardless of their spelling, such as a dog, a university, a CBS news report.
The important part is the sound of the word that follows, not necessarily the letter with which it starts. The above examples have words that begin with vowels (元音字母) and consonants, but we use “a” for all of them because they begin with the sound of a consonant.
“An” is used before words, or letters that begin with a vowel sound, regardless of their spelling, such as an idea, an honor, an HTML document.
The rule only becomes tricky when you have a vowel with a consonant sound or a consonant with a vowel sound. When you come across these, ignore what the first letter is and just listen to the sound that it makes.
What if an adjective (形容词) is added in front of a noun (名词) Some people aren’t sure how to apply this rule when an adjective appears before the noun being referred to. The same rule still applies. “A” is used before words starting in consonant sounds and “an” is used before words starting with vowel sounds. It doesn’t matter if the word is an adjective, a noun, or anything else；the rule is exactly the same.
What’s the purpose of paragraph 1 　
A. To bring up the topic. B. To bring forward a suggestion.
C. To explain the importance of rules. D. To tell the background of the text.
What determines the choice between “a” and “an” 　
A. The first letter of the noun. B. The spellings of the noun.
C. The first letter after them. D. The first sound after them.
What can be learnt about the rule mentioned in the text 　
A. It varies from context to context. B. It confuses only native speakers.
C. It is simple but sometimes tricky. D. It is not in common use grammatically.
How is the text mainly developed 　
A. By making comparisons. B. By giving explanations and examples.
C. By applying previous data. D. By bringing out the facts and reasons.
D
Across vast areas of the tropics (热带地区) from Southeast Asia to Africa, forests have been cut down in recent decades, but at least in some areas reforestation efforts have been made to take in carbon (碳).
It remains to be seen, however, whether these newly planted forests will manage to survive in the face of changing climate, which will bring more intense heat, lengthened droughts, and occasional wildfires.
To find out, scientists from the University of Hong Kong decided to run hundreds of computer models to explore various results under different conditions. The key aim of the study was to see if carbon stored in these regrown forests would remain locked up, and they have found this will likely be the case even under the most severe climate conditions.
“Our computer models show in many parts of the tropics reforestation is worth it, because these new forests should be able to survive until the end of the century and continue to store extra carbon from the atmosphere in the process,” explains Jed Kaplan, a professor at the university.
However, the role of newly planted forests as a carbon collector in the tropics will have only a limited effect on climate change, especially because many existing forests in the tropics will struggle in the face of rising temperatures and are already losing their ability to store carbon, “Massive tree planting won’t be enough to avoid climate disaster, but it can play a role. And if done with biodiversity and the people who call these forests home, reforestation can have many benefits, “ says Alexander Koch, the other author of the study.
“So far we have only been able to look at carbon, but other aspects such as biodiversity in restored forests are also impacted by climate change. Assessing those impacts will be the next step,” he adds.
What is the discovery of the study 　
A. Changing climate will bring about many natural disasters.
B. Reforestation is of great benefit to biodiversity in the tropics.
C. Regrown forests will store carbon even in the face of climate change.
D. The chance of newly planted forests surviving tough conditions is slim.
What’s Jed Kaplan’s attitude towards reforestation 　
A. Worried. B. Doubtful. C. Disappointed. D. Favourable.
What can be inferred from paragraph 5 　
A. Reforestation is useless in stopping climate change.
B. More measures should be taken as well as reforestation.
C. The carbon in the atmosphere will increase in the future.
D. Existing forests can no longer take in carbon from the air.
What can we learn about the study 　
A. It takes all the factors into account.
B. It still needs to be further improved.
C. It fails to achieve the expected result.
D. It provides a way to avoid climate change.

Everyone is nervous when they go to an interview for a new job. However, being well-prepared for the interview can really reduce your stress level. 36 .
“ 37 .” The interviewer’s purpose in asking this question is to get information related to work and job openings. Some people make the mistake of taking this request literally and answering by giving their life history. In fact, the best points to focus on when answering this question are past work experience, education, and social activities. Of these three, work experience carries a lot more weight.
“Why do you want to work for this company ” 38 , you are letting the interviewer know that you haven’t done much research about the company or the job you are being interviewed for. Interviewees who can give detailed answers about the benefits of working for a particular company make a much better impression on interviewers.
“What are your strengths and what is your biggest weakness ” People have a hard time answering the first question because it feels like boasting (吹嘘) in some ways. 39 . The second question poses a problem because the answer needs to be a weakness that sounds like a strength. A good tip to keep in mind is to mention how you are trying to improve.
A final suggestion for preparing for an interview is to go into the interview with your own questions to ask. 40 .
A. Tell me about yourself
B. But an interview has no time to be shy
C. For instance, answer questions relate to family
D. If you don’t have an answer ready for this question
E. By asking questions about the company, you are showing interest for the job
F. Probably the most frequently asked questions in any job interview are as follows
G. If you don’t feel comfortable giving such personal information, then simply don’t

Many years ago, there lived a wealthy man in a big city who wanted to do something good. Raised in a small village, he made up his mind to help the people in his town. But before doing so, he wanted to do an experiment to find out who had the qualification for his help. So secretly he put a very large stone in the middle of the main road which led to the town. Then he stood behind a tree waiting and watching.
Several minutes later, an old man came along with his cow, “Who put the stone in the center of the road ” said the old man, but he didn’t try to move the stone away. He passed around the stone with some difficulties and continued on his way. Another man came along and did the same thing; then another came, and another. All of them complained about the stone in the center of the road but nobody tried to move it. Though the rich man was a little disappointed with what he had seen, he still chose to wait longer. In his heart, he wouldn’t like to believe that no one would do something with the stone. Therefore, he went on waiting and watching.
Later in the afternoon, a young man came along. He saw the stone and said, “It will be dark at night. Some people who will come along later in the dark are more likely to fall over the stone and get hurt.” Then the young man began to move the stone. Obviously, it was a big and heavy stone. In spite of this, he pushed and pulled and tried everything he could to move it out of the road. Finally, his hard work paid off. But to his surprise, under the stone, he found a bag full of money, along with a piece of paper reading, “This money is for the person who moves the stone from the road. The person deserves my help.”

The New Skill I Want to Learn
The new skill that I want to learn in summer vacation is cooking.
As we know, cooking is the most vital life skill. Learning to cook for middle school students can prepare them for an independent life in society after graduation. Cooking at home is healthier and cheaper than eating out or ordering take-out. I plan to learn to cook with my mother at home during the summer vacation. I can watch her cook, keep the steps of cooking in mind, and practice it myself.
I hold the belief that with my mother’s help, I can certainly learn to cook in the summer vacation.
第二节
The young man was surprised to see the money. He wondered who put a bag full of money under a stone and wanted to thank the owner. He shouted to the open area, “Whose money is this ”, but no one answered. After some minutes, because it was getting darker and darker, he gave up searching and determined to go back with the money. The rich man wanted to see what the young man would do with the money.
Following the young man, the rich man came into a house. The house was a care home, where many old people lived. The old were very happy to see the young man. One of them asked, “Why are you coming here so late ” The young man replied, “Today, I found a bag full of money under a stone. I remember you lack some necessities, so I want to give you some money.” The old thanked him. Seeing this, the rich man felt that everything he did today was worthwhile.
