I hired a man to help me repair an old farmhouse. His first day job made him mad—a flat tire (轮胎) made him lose an hour of work, he cut his finger with a knife and his old truck refused to start. While I drove him home, he sat in silence.
On arriving, he invited me to meet his family. As we walked towards the front door, he stopped at a small tree and touched the tips of the branches with both hands. When opening the door, his face was full of smiles and he hugged his two children and gave his wife a kiss.
Afterwards, he walked with me to the car. We passed the tree. I was so____▲____that I asked him about what I had seen earlier. “Oh, that’s my trouble tree,” he replied. “I know I can’t help having troubles on the job, but one thing is for sure. Those troubles don’t belong to my children and wife. So I hang them in the tree every night and ask God to take care of them. Then in the morning, I pick them up again.”

Hip hop or rap music started on the street and in the clubs of the New York City in the1970s. People rap to express how they feel about their lives and problems.
Nowadays, hip pop music is played in more than 10,000 schools in the USA .Why There is a new school program called “Flocabulary”, in which teachers use texts and hip hop CDs to help teach different school subjects, such as physics, math and so on. The words of the songs are just what students are studying. This makes learning easy and fun. Students and teachers are excited about the positive results it has had on exam marks. One teacher said, “I’ve used hip hop songs in class and I have never seen my students so crazy about my lesson! You can’t imagine how well they remember what I teach! We even try to write our own songs.”
Blake Harrison, a high school student, was the first person to come up with the idea of Flocabulary. The word “Flocabulary” comes from the word “flow” and “vocabulary”. “Flow” is a rap word for “ style”, or the way a rapper says the words of a song. “Vocabulary" means the words you have to learn in a language.
How did he get the idea Well, as he listened to hip hop song first time, he sensed a strong joy. And he could remember the words of a hip hop song very easily. “So, why not make lessons into songs ” he thought. Today, together with Alex Rappaport, a song writer, Blake produces hip hop songs for maths, science and English. They are now used in schools with great success.
29．Rap music started ________ in New York city.
A．in the 1970s B．in a music class C．in the 19th century
30．From the passage, we can learn “ Flocabulary” is a program to ________.
A．write rap music B．remember the words of a song. C．help teach some school subjects.
31．The underlined word “positive” in paragraph 2 most probably means ________
A．bad B．good C．final
32．Blake Harrison has produced hip hop songs for school subject EXCEPT ________.
A．maths B．science C．history

There are many successful people in the world. If you want to succeed like them, the following rules of success are of great importance to you.

34 You cannot learn if you do not listen. You cannot grow if you do not learn. Listen with purpose. If you’re serious about making your life great, you have to be devoted to it.
Observe (观察) more. The closer you observe, the better your understanding and decisions will be. Pay close attention to those you admire. 35 Observe what works and what doesn’t work in your own life and make changes.
Finally, take action. Knowing is not enough and being willing to do is not enough. 36 If you want anything in life, it’s not coming to you while you sit on your hands. Get up, get out there and get it. 37

He then told the king to go to the garden where a rose plant and a cypress (柏树) plant were growing side by side. He told the king, “They are your teachers. They can teach you what you want to learn.”
The king went into the garden, and saw the two plants but could not understand what he could learn from them. He went back to the master and asked, “What do you mean, master I am not able to understand what and how these plants will teach me.”
The master took the king to the plants and explained, “This cypress plant has been next to the rose plant for ten years. Never once has it wanted to become a rose plant. Similarly, the rose plant has never wanted to become a cypress plant. If man were the cypress plant, he would have compared himself with the rose and felt jealous (忌妒的) at the attention that the beautiful rose plant was getting from all the people. Or, if man were the rose plant, he would have looked at the cypress plant enviously (羡慕地) thinking how peaceful the plant was without the trouble of being disturbed by people all day! Both of the plants grew very well because they used all their energy for their own growth instead of using it to compete with the other.”

Her hair is long and she is a little heavier now. She used to be shy and quiet, but now she is friendlier and more helpful. Now she is studying to be a cartoonist.
