When I was twelve, my family moved to a new town. I felt lonely and missed my old friends. One Saturday, I noticed an empty lot near our house, full of rubbish. An idea came to me: why not turn it into a garden
I told my plan to Mrs. Lee, our next-door neighbor. She was in her seventies and often sat alone on her porch (门廊). Hearing this, her eyes lit up. “I used to love gardening,” she said softly. “But after my husband passed away, I lost the heart for it.” She agreed to help.
We started the next weekend. First, we cleared the rubbish. It was hard work, and my arms ached. Mrs. Lee brought tools and showed me how to turn the soil. “Patience, child,” she would say. “Good things take time.”
We planted flowers and vegetables. Every afternoon after school, I would water them. Mrs. Lee taught me the names of each plant and how to care for them. Slowly, the empty lot changed. Colorful flowers bloomed, and tomatoes grew red under the sun. Neighbors began to stop by. Some brought more plants; others just smiled and said hello.
One day, a little girl from down the street brought a painted rock to add to the garden. “It’s for the fairies (精灵),” she said seriously. We placed it near the roses. The garden was no longer just mine or Mrs. Lee’s—it belonged to the whole community.
By summer, the garden was full of life. But more importantly, I wasn’t lonely anymore. I had made a friend with Mrs. Lee and met many neighbors. The garden taught me that beauty can grow in unexpected places, and that sometimes, helping a piece of land can also help heal (治愈) a lonely heart.

A．She was too old to do any gardening.
B．She didn’t like the writer’s idea at first.
C．She was a professional gardener before.
D．She had lost interest in gardening after her husband’s death.
41．What does the underlined word “bloomed” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean
A．Died. B．Opened. C．Disappeared. D．Dried.
42．How did the writer’s feelings change according to the story
A．Lonely → tired → proud → moved B．Lonely → angry → excited → peaceful
C．Lonely→thankful→surprised→satisfied D．Lonely→hopeful→connected→satisfied
43．What information can you get from the underlined sentence
A．Only the writer and Mrs. Lee could use the garden.
B．Mrs. Lee and I wanted to refuse others to visit the garden.
C．More and more people in the neighborhood enjoyed the garden.

Team Talk: Group Work Advice Corner
Li Hua’s Group Trouble
To Ms. Chen, My name is Li Hua, a 7th-grade student. Last month, my class started a group project about environmental protection. My four-person team was excited at first—but things quickly fell apart. When we divided tasks, some teammates called me “bossy” because I kept checking their work. I only wanted us to finish on time! Meanwhile, two quiet members never spoke up in meetings. They nodded and said “OK,” but I later found they hadn’t even started their parts. When I asked, they said they were too shy to share their thoughts. Last week, we had a big fight. No one listened to each other, and our project is way behind schedule. I’m really worried—how can we fix this Li Hua
Ms. Chen’s reply
Dear Li Hua, I’m sorry to hear about your group trouble. Group work teaches us so much, but it can be tricky when communication breaks down. The good news is, small changes can turn things around! Here are my 3 key tips for your team: - The “Speak & Listen” Rule Before your next meeting, write down your ideas, but let everyone else speak first. This way, you won’t sound like you’re giving orders, and your quiet teammates will feel safe to share. - Use “I” Statements, Not Blame Instead of saying, “You never do your work,” try, “I feel worried when we don’t know how the project is going.” This tells others how you feel without making them defensive (抵制的). - Play to Everyone’s Strengths Your quiet teammates might be shy about speaking up, but they could be amazing at researching facts or designing posters! Assign roles based on what each person enjoys, not just what “needs to get done.” Remember: Good team communication isn’t about winning arguments. It’s about making sure everyone feels heard. Try these tips, and I’m sure your group will get back on track soon! Ms. Chen School Counselor

例文
Dear Tom,
I'm sorry to hear that you argued with your parents about phone use. I understand how you feel. However, spending too much time on phones every day is truly harmful.
First, it hurts your eyes badly and causes headaches. Second, it influences your study negatively and wastes time. Parents just care about you. Why not communicate with them politely You can make a reasonable plan together and listen to their advice carefully. Show them you can control yourself.
Understanding each other is the key. I hope you will get on well with them soon and focus on study.
Best wishes,
Li Hua
