Dear students,
As we grow up day by day,we gradually come to realize that life teaches us more valuable lessons than textbooks can offer.These lessons help us form positive values,become more responsible,and learn to be grateful to the people who support us.To help all students gain a deeper understanding of life wisdom,our school will hold a special month-long activity series with the theme“Lessons in Life:Grow Through Experience”.
The activities include a school-wide speech competition,a sharing meeting about gratitude and responsibility,and a volunteer program to help elderly people in the local community.The speech competition invites students to share their own stories,thoughts and insights they have got from daily life,failure,success or kindness from others.The volunteer activity will provide us with a chance to care for the elderly,listen to their life experiences and learn wisdom from the old.
The speech competition will be held at 2:30 pm on Friday next week in the school hall.Students who want to take part should sign up before Thursday this week.The volunteer service will be held on Saturday morning.We will meet at the school gate at 8:00 am.
All the activities are meaningful and helpful.They can help us gain lessons that we can never learn from classes alone.We are looking forward to your active participation.

When I was 16,I was chosen to represent my class in a public speaking competition.I was proud but extremely nervous.I practiced my speech again and again until I could recite it fluently,but I still feared that I would forget my lines or make silly mistakes in front of so many people.
On the day of the competition,my hands shook constantly and my heart beat wildly.When my name was called,I walked onto the stage slowly.At first,I was so nervous that I could hardly speak a word.Then I saw my teacher sitting in the front row,smiling at me gently.Her warm smile gave me a little bit of courage.
I began my speech.But halfway through,I stumbled over a sentence and stopped for a moment.The whole room fell quiet.I felt my face turn red immediately and wanted to run away from the stage.Just then,I remembered what my teacher had told me:“Mistakes are unavoidable in life.The real courage is not making no mistakes,but keeping going when you make them.”
I took a deep breath and continued my speech.Although I didn’t win the first prize,I finished my speech successfully.Afterward,my teacher praised me for my bravery and persistence.
That day taught me a precious life lesson:life does not always go smoothly,but courage and persistence can carry us through difficulties.Difficulties are not meant to stop us,but to help us become stronger and more mature.

25.What happened when the writer was giving her speech on the stage
A.She forgot all her lines and had to give up halfway in the competition.
B.She stumbled over a sentence and stopped,but she continued with courage.
C.She ran away from the stage at once when she made a small mistake.
D.She won the first prize because of her perfect performance and clear expression.
26.What does the underlined word“stumbled”probably mean
A.Spoke very fluently and confidently without any pause.
B.Made a mistake in speaking and stopped for a short time.
C.Laughed suddenly when facing the large audience.
D.Communicated with the audience actively and freely.
27.What important life lesson did the writer learn from the experience
A.It is unnecessary to take part in competitions if you are not confident enough.
B.Making mistakes is so shameful that we should avoid them at any time.
C.Courage and persistence can help us pull through difficulties in life.
D.Winning prizes is the most important thing in all kinds of competitions.

Life lessons play an essential role in the healthy growth of teenagers.In modern society,most teenagers are well protected by parents and schools,so they seldom experience real difficulties or failures.As a result,some of them may easily feel upset,anxious or defeated when facing challenges in study or life.
Proper life lessons help teenagers build strong mental power and positive qualities.When students experience small difficulties,they gradually learn to solve problems,control their emotions and face failures bravely.They come to understand that failure is not a terrible thing but a chance to improve themselves and gain experience.
Schools and families should work together to offer necessary life lessons.Schools can provide courses on life skills,such as time management,communication skills,emotional control and stress management.Parents should encourage children to try new things,take on small responsibilities and accept failures instead of protecting them too much.
In addition,role models also have a great influence on teaching life lessons.Teachers,parents and successful people from all walks of life can share their own stories of overcoming difficulties.Their real experiences can make teenagers realize that difficulties are common and can be defeated with courage and effort.
In short,life lessons are necessary for teenagers.They help young people grow into responsible,strong willed and wise individuals.They prepare teenagers for future challenges and enable them to live a meaningful and valuable life.
28.What is the main idea of the passage
A.Life lessons are necessary and important for the healthy growth of teenagers.
B.Teenagers today are facing too much stress from study and daily life.
C.Schools should offer more courses to improve students’ academic performance.
D.Parents should protect their children from any difficulty or failure in life.
29.Why are some teenagers easily upset or anxious when facing challenges
A.Because they have too many difficult courses and heavy learning tasks.
B.Because they are seldom exposed to difficulties and lack mental strength.
C.Because they have no friends to communicate with when in trouble.
D.Because their teachers and parents are too strict with them in daily life.
30.What should parents do according to the passage
A.Do everything for their children to protect them from any failure or difficulty.
B.Encourage children to try new things and take on small responsibilities.
C.Punish their children immediately when they make mistakes or fail.

In life,many of the most valuable lessons are closely connected with gratitude and responsibility.Nowadays,many young people grow up with enough love and care from parents,teachers and society,but few of them truly understand the meaning of giving back.
Gratitude means being thankful for what we have.We should appreciate our parents for their selfless care,teachers for their patient guidance and society for the safe and convenient environment we live in.A person with a grateful heart is more likely to feel happy and satisfied.Gratitude makes us value what we own instead of only desiring more.
Responsibility means taking our duties seriously.As students,we should study hard,respect teachers and get along well with classmates.As members of society,we should help people in need,follow public rules and protect the environment.Taking responsibility makes us reliable and useful to people around us.
Some people believe that only great and meaningful events matter in life.However,most life lessons come from small and common acts.Sincerely saying“thank you”to people who help you,helping parents with housework,finishing homework on time,volunteering in the community—these small things teach us important lessons about gratitude and responsibility.
In my opinion,schools and families should pay more attention to life lessons instead of focusing only on scores.Teenagers who are grateful and responsible will bring more warmth to society.Only with such qualities can young people truly grow up and create a better future for themselves and the world.
32.What can we learn about gratitude from the passage
A.Gratitude makes people focus on desiring more things instead of valuing what they have.
B.People who are grateful are more likely to feel happy and satisfied with their life.
C.Gratitude is no longer important or necessary in modern busy society.
D.Only adults need to learn to be grateful;teenagers need not.
33.What does the writer think responsibility means
A.Making a lot of money and enjoying a comfortable and easy life.
B.Taking our duties seriously and doing well what we should do.
C.Following others blindly and never making any decisions by oneself.
D.Playing happily and freely without worrying about anything.
34.What can we infer from the passage
A.Scores are the only important thing for students to succeed in the future.
B.Most life lessons come from small and common acts in our daily life.
C.Young people today have already had enough gratitude and responsibility.
D.Great events are the only valuable things that can teach us life lessons.

A.Negative.They are a waste of time and energy.
B.Doubtful.They are not as useful as expected.
C.Supportive.They are important for young people.
D.Uncaring.They have little to do with daily life.

Last Monday,our teacher organized a“one-day life experience”activity to teach us valuable lessons in life.We were divided into small groups and asked to finish a series of real-life tasks,such as buying daily things with limited money,helping strangers in need and solving practical problems in the community.
At first,I thought it would be quite easy.But soon I met many unexpected difficulties.When I tried to turn to strangers for help,some of them turned me down directly.When I bought things in the market,I found I was completely not good at planning money or communicating with sellers.I felt so worried that I wanted to give up at once.
However,my group members encouraged me not to lose heart.We worked together closely,communicated patiently and helped each other solve problems.Finally,we successfully finished all the given tasks.
When we returned to school,we shared our feelings and thoughts.The activity made me clearly realize that life is not always easy and that we need cooperation,kindness and courage.I truly understood that the most valuable lessons often come from real experiences.
Paragraph 1:
After that meaningful activity,I have changed a lot in my daily life.
