A
Dear Wang Ling,
How are you Last time you said you have no idea what you should do when you are under pressure and have worries. One good way that many students in my country find helpful is using a worry box. Let me explain how to make and use one.
Try using a worry box ◆ Make a special box Use colorful things and pictures to make your worry box. Here is a picture of my worry-eating monster (怪兽) box! ◆ Write down your worries Take some pieces of paper and write down your worries ◆ Rate (评价) your worries and keep them in the box If you like, place each worry on a scale (等级) from 1 to 10. 1 means “a little worried” and 10 means “the most worried”. For example, today I put two worries into the box. I rated “losing my new bike” as a 7 and “getting bad grades in the math exam” as a 5. ◆ Talk it out Be sure to make some time every day or week to talk about your worries with your parents together. You can find ways to deal with them.
Remember, it’s not healthy to carry worries around in your head. The worry box provides a good place to “share” your worries. By using it, you’ll learn to deal with your worries.
Take care!
Yours
Linda

Noah first experienced volunteering at the age of 7. At the time, he helped with the soccer program at his summer camp. “I realized I could make a difference, even as a kid,” said Noah.
At another summer camp, Noah helped kids with their art projects. He was also part of a group to beautify schools and parks with painting. The most impressive (令人印象深刻的) part He did all this before he even turned 14. When he sees a need, he fills it.
Once Noah learned about kids who needed meals on weekends when they couldn’t get school lunches. He then joined a group that spent one Saturday afternoon each month delivering (运送) hot food to both kids and their caretakers. “When I found out that I could actually do it every Saturday,” said Noah, “it became a thing I looked forward to each week.”
During the past year, Noah has helped people with intellectual disabilities create art projects and taught pupils in reading. Most recently, he began helping the elderly with other volunteers.
“We deliver birthday cakes to everyone over 89 during their birthday month, and provide transportation (交通工具) to get food or attend medical appointments (就医),” explained Noah.
Noah’s love for volunteering shows no signs of stopping. “It is so meaningful to know that I made a difference to someone’s life,” said Noah.
26. What did Noah help kids with in his first volunteering experience
A. Art projects. B. Sports activities. C. Cleaning parks.
27. Why did Noah join the group to deliver meals to kids on weekends
A. To meet the kids’ needs. B. To kill time on weekends. C. To show his love for cooking.

“Achoo!” You might hear people sneezing (打喷嚏) a lot now and sometimes people need to take some medicine to stop it. That’s because spring is the season of pollen allergies (花粉过敏)!
Think of your immune system (免疫系统) as “soldiers” protecting your body. Usually, these soldiers keep you safe from things like viruses (病毒). However, sometimes they make a mistake and think pollen is also dangerous. Pollen helps plants spread and grow, but some people’s immune systems don’t fight it properly. This causes sneezing.
These days, Beijing is experiencing lots of juniper (刺柏) pollen this spring. In order to cut down the amount of pollen, the government took action like cutting some flower branches. Climate change might be the “criminal”. Because the whole world is getting warmer, flowers come earlier and live longer, making the pollen season longer. A study shows that some countries in Europe also have this problem. And warmer weather brings more CO2. Plants use it as food to grow. It helps plants make more pollen.
Also, more cars and factories let out gases (气体) that pollute the air. This pollution can stay with pollen, making allergies worse. Some pollution can even break pollen into small pieces that reach deep into our lungs , causing serious health problems.
You might see new trees in your neighborhood. Plants from other places can change the types and amounts of pollen in the air. This can upset the local ecosystem (当地生态系统), sometimes causing more allergies. For example, ryegrass (黑麦草) from Europe causes spring allergies every year in Australia.
31. Why does our immune system fight pollen
A. Pollen is similar to a virus. B. It “sees” pollen as dangerous. C. Pollen is dangerous to our bodies.
32. What does the text say about how climate change affects the pollen season
A. It leads to a longer pollen season.
B. It makes more plants produce pollen.
C. It weakens people’s immunity to pollen.
33. What role do factories play in making allergies worse
A. They help pollen move faster.
B. They cause the pollen to be polluted.
C. They help pollen spread more widely.
34. What can we do to stop pollen allergies
①Wear a mask ②Cut some flower branches
③Take some allergy medicine ④ Have some new plants from other places
A. ①②③ B. ①②④ C. ②③④
35. What does the example of ryegrass show
A. What trees are good for the environment.
B. How Australia has changed its spring allergies.
C. How foreign plants can make a difference to spring allergies.

As we know, reading is not only about learning – it’s fun and relaxing. But a study showed only 43% of the young people enjoyed reading. Other research suggested that a quarter of children were pushed to read books they didn't want to read by adults. What do you think, should children be told what to read
“I don’t mind choosing a book from a list of choices provided by the teachers. Due to reading lists like this, I read many good books that I probably wouldn't have chosen on my own.”
“As a young student I usually hated it when the whole class read the same simple book page by page together.”
Young readers need guidance (指导) *Experts say that many young people are choosing books written for a younger age group. This has led to a fall in children’s ability to read and understand the text. *Adults have lots of experience and know which books are enjoyable for children.
You are the one reading the book *Adults don’t know what children like so they shouldn’t choose their reading material. It could put young people off reading for life. *Children should make choices for themselves and learn from their mistakes. It helps to build confidence (信心).

Should we be a volunteer
Today, our class had a hot discussion about whether a middle-school student should be a volunteer for the 12th World Games in Chengdu. Some students think yes. They believe it can improve English, as communicating with foreigners helps practice the language. Also, it hones communication skills when interacting with diverse people. And we can learn some first aid skills. Others say no. They have no time due to heavy schoolwork, and additionally, they worry about the extra pressure from volunteer work.
In my view, we should be volunteers. It offers a chance to contribute to the city and gain unforgettable experiences. Moreover, we can learn teamwork in real-life situations.
