High school clubs are key to a rich campus life. They help students develop interests, build friendships, and gain practical skills. Here are three popular clubs at Chengdu No. 1 High School.
English Drama Club
Founded in 2018, this club focuses on improving English through drama performances. Members meet every Wednesday afternoon to practice lines and stage skills.

Last year, three members won awards in the provincial English Drama Competition.
Science and Technology Club
For students interested in invention, this club offers a great platform. Members work on small projects: building simple robots, designing mobile apps, or conducting environmental experiments. The club has a well-equipped lab with 3D printers and microscopes. Every summer, they take part in the national high school science innovation contest.
Volunteer Club
This club centers on community service. Students volunteer at local primary schools, elderly care homes, and urban parks. They help teach kids basic English, assist the elderly with daily tasks, and organize environmental clean-ups. Each semester, they hold a large-scale volunteer day that attracts over 200 participants.

A typical lion tamer (驯兽师) in people’s mind is an entertainer holding a whip (鞭子)and a chair .The whip get all of the attention , but it’s mostly for show .In reality , it’s the chair that does the important work .When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lion’s face , the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time .With its focus divided , the lion becomes confused and is unsure about what to do next .When faced with so many options , the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the man holding the chair.
How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion How often do you have something you want to achieve (e,g. lose weight , start a business , travel more ) –only to end up confused by all of the options in front of you and never make progress
This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best , the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the conflicting information .The end result is that we feel like we can’t focus or that we’re focused on the wrong things , and so we take less action , make less progress , and stay the same when we could be improving .
It doesn’t have to be that way .Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face , remember this :All you need to do is focus on one thing .You just need to get started .Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of successful people .If you have somewhere you want to go , something you want to accomplish , someone you want to become ….take immediate action .If you’re clear about where you want to go , the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out the way .
4. Why does the lion tamer use a chair
A.To trick the lion.
B.To show off his skill .
C.To get ready for a fight.
D.To entertain the audience.
5. In what sense are people similar to a lion facing a chair
A.They feel puzzled over choices.
B.They hold on to the wrong things.
C.They find it hard to make changes.
D.They have to do something for show.

A.Tolerant
B.Doubtful
C.Respectful
D.Supportive
7. When the world is “waving a chair in your face”, you’re advised to_____.
A.wait for a better chance
B.break your old habits
C.make a quick decision

C

Trust is the basis of sincere human friendship. A recent report suggests that the same holds true among chimpanzee (黑猩猩) cronies.
Earlier studies had shown that chimpanzees have relationships that look quite like friendships. For example, they’ll show preferences to selected individuals (个体). The question was, are those interactions (互动) based on trust
To find out, Engelmann observed the interactions of 15 chimpanzees over a 5-month period. Based on friendly interactions among chimp pairs, including eating together, the researchers found out each chimpanzee’s closest “friend” and a “non-friend”. The researchers then asked the chimps to play a game, both with their friend and with their non-friend. In the game, chimps had a choice between pulling a “no-trust rope” and a “trust rope”. When the no-trust rope was pulled, the first chimp immediately got a food he or she didn’t like especially well. When the trust rope was pulled instead, the other chimp immediately got a much more attractive food and could choose to send a treat back to the first chimp (or not). In other words, the trust rope offered a win-win, but only if chimp one trusted chimp two enough to send something back. Each chimp played the game 12 times with his or her friend and another 12 times with his or her non-friend.
The findings suggest that human friendship isn’t unique. “Human friendships don’t present an unusual thing in the animal world.” Engelmann says, “Other animals, such as chimpanzees, form close and long-term bonds with selected individuals and trust friends in every situation.”
12. What does the underlined word “cronies” in the first paragraph most probably mean
A.Families.
B.Friends.
C.Species.
D.Babies.
13. What discovery have earlier studies made about chimpanzees
A.There exist friendships among them.
B.Their friendships are based on trust.
C.They don’t prefer one fellow to another.
D.They hold the same relationships with each other.
14. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A.How chimps built trust with friends.
B.How chimps told friends from non-friends.
C.How Engelmann carried out his study on chimps.
D.How the researchers helped chimps form relationships.
15. What can we learn from Engelmann’s opinion
A.Relationships among chimps don’t last long.
B.Chimps are unlikely to form close relationships.
C.Animals refuse to trust friends in costly situations.
D.Friendships are quite common in the animal world.
