12．（2019·西安模拟）阅读理解
For the past few months, my three-year-old daughter has spent an hour
every week learning a foreign language. She walks into a small room in a local
school, where she and a handful of three and four-year-old spend the next hour
dancing to “La Vaca Lola”, a song about a Spanish cow, creating finger
puppets(木偶) to voice what they like and
don't like (me gusta, no me gusta) and shouting out which animals are big
(grande) or small (pequeno).
She tells us little about the classes. In fact, for the first few weeks,
nothing at all. I begin to wonder if it was a huge mistake (each lesson works
out at about 9) but then I show her “La Vaca Lola” on YouTube. She shouts vaca
with enthusiasm and with what I hope is a Spanish accent.
The wish to enroll(使……加入) her in language lessons
came, like most things, gradually and then in a sudden rush. In my day job, I
read and edit stories about the Chinese economy. For a long time, I felt that
it would be good for her to learn another language but I had no great plan as
to when.
Then I read Edward Luce's The
Retreat of Western Liberalism and all my thoughts and worry about the
economy combined into a panic. Waking in a sweat, it seemed obvious that if my
daughter was to have any kind of future, she would have to learn another
language. Ideally (理想地)
immediately.
I thought about Mandarin Chinese, one of the top 10 languages most
important for our future, according to the British Council (others include
Arabic, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Russian, Dutch and Japanese). But
there were no classes for young children nearby. There were, however, local
Spanish classes—the number-one language on the list. When she started to sing "Incy
Wincy Spider" in Spanish and English—helped by a Spanish nursery
worker-our
decision was made.
（1）What can we learn about the author's daughter from the first paragraph
A．She uses finger puppets to make her voice heard.
B．She is the oldest student in her Spanish class.
C．She learns Spanish by dancing to songs.
D．She has learnt Spanish for one month.
（2）How did the author feel about her daughter's class at first
A．Proud. B．Surprised. C．Delighted D．Doubtful.
（3）Why did the author ask her daughter to learn a foreign language
A．To prepare her for the coming school education.
B．To equip her for her future.
C．To encourage her to have belief in herself.
D．To develop her interest in singing.
（4）What made the author decide to enroll her daughter in Spanish lessons
A．Her performance. B．Her great interest.
C．The nursery worker's suggestion. D．The fast-growing economy.

"You know, the soft subjects," says the boy in maths.
"The easy ones: the stupid girls at the bottom take them. Like dance. It
shouldn't even be a subject." We're choosing subjects for our A-level
taster day at school. I see the raised eyebrows (眉毛) when I explain two of my GCSE (General
Certificate of Secondary Education) choices are dance and drama(戏剧).
I was told by advisers that dance and drama wouldn't help me to get a
suitable career. My friends told me I'd get bored of dance and switch to
science within the first month.
But taking GCSE dance was the best decision I ever made. Dance gives me
something to pour my head and heart into. It gives me a feeling of belonging,
creativity, security and freedom.
The education secretary Nicky Morgan has put emphasis on (强调) science, technology,
engineering and maths (STEM), saying that students who focus on the arts risk
their careers. Stopping young people from expressing themselves at such a young
age is not doing them any favours. Perhaps Nicky Morgan has forgotten to open
the door of having a drive to study that subject day in, day out. It shouldn't
matter what that subject is.
I don't doubt the influence that STEM subjects can have on the people
that love them. But to force children into one field is cruel. As much as I
try, I'm not good at and don't love physics, biology or maths. I don't want a
career in these areas.
There has been a decrease in the number of state schools offering arts
subjects taught by specialist teachers. I can't even imagine how it feels to be
told that you don't teach a "real subject" by an 8-year-old boy.
To the teachers, the parents, the government I say: Let children make
their own decisions. Let them live in the present. Let them have a real,
unlimited education.
（1）How does the boy in maths feel about dance
A．Useless. B．Difficult. C．Beautiful. D．Important.
（2）After the author took GCSE dance, she ________
A．lost interest in it B．kept her mind on it
C．turned to other subjects D．struggled with Her lessons
（3）What do we know about Nicky Morgan
A．She encourages students to learn soft subjects.
B．She suggests students take a risk in their careers.
C．She underlines the importance of STEM subjects.
D．She allows students to express themselves freely.
（4）What's the present situation of arts subjects
A．They attract much attention worldwide.
B．They are taught by non-professionals.
C．They are considered less important.
D．They have made great progress.
14．（2019·西安模拟）阅读理解
Some years ago, Michel-Andre found himself staring at the body of a dead
whale on a beach in the Canary Islands. It was obvious that the animal had been
struck violently by a ship——but why Only later, after surveying the whales
which lived in the area and measuring the increase of sound pollution from
ships did it become clear that there was a link.
The whales had become desensitised to the noise of approaching
boats and were being struck by them, often seriously. "We never thought
that this could be something that could kill," recalls (回忆) Andre, who is the director
of the Laboratory of Applied Bioacoustics at the Technical University of
Catalonia, Barcelona.
Andre has spent 20 years developing an advanced system to better
understand why incidents like this happen. His underwater microphones have
exposed a world of deafening sound and animal communication never observed with
such clarity(清晰)
before.
It was not an easy task. Sound waves don't travel through water in the
uniform, predictable way they do through the air. Instead, the temperature,
salinity (盐度)
and, flow of water have great effects on their path.
What can be done One solution is to change shipping routes to courses
where ships are statistically less likely to meet animals. It's also possible
to slow ships down to 18km/h or less, which is less likely to seriously injure
a whale.
As for dealing with the root cause of the problem, the UN's
International Maritime Organisation has already published guidelines on how to
quieten ships, but
it will be a while before the effects of such changes might be observed.
"The ocean is not our world," comments Andre. But it is ours
to look after. And thanks to his work, we can better understand the effects of
subsea sound pollution.
（1）What does the underlined word "desensitised" in Paragraph 2 mean
A．Stubborn. B．Flexible. C．Dull. D．Friendly.
（2）What's one way to solve the problem according to the text
A．To lower the speed of ships.
B．To reduce the number of ships.
C．To set up preserves under the sea.
D．To give the injured animals timely treatment.
（3）What is the author's attitude towards what Michel Andre has done
A．Doubtful. B．Disapproving. C．Positive. D．Uncaring.
（4）What is the text mainly about
A．A great expert. B．Noise in the sea.
C．Animals in the sea. D．Sea exploration technology.

【解析】【听力原文】 My father woke me up early one morning when I was fourteen and announced, "Get up, you are going with me to cut grass." I felt proud and excited because my father thought I was responsible enough to help him in his business. Still, that first day was very hard. From 6 am to 7 pm, my father, my sixteen-year-old brother and I cut grass in very large yards. By the end of the day I was tired out, but I felt good, I had put in a hard day's work and earned six dollars, two dollars less than my elder brother did, though.
Another day, my father found some grass I had missed cutting and called me to his room. "Cut that section again!" he said firmly, "and don't make me tell you again." The message was very clear.
Today I stress the importance of doing a job right the first time. Every job I have held, from cutting grass to washing dishes, from cleaning the streets to working a machine on a construction site, I have learned something that has helped me in my next job. If you work hard enough, you can learn from any job you do.

18．【答案】①seating →seated ②better前面加上a ③去掉the ④wait →waiting⑤myself →me ⑥try →tried ⑦that →what ⑧goal →goals ⑨or →and ⑩success →successful
【知识点】短文改错

①考查非谓语动词。句意：有一天，当我坐在椅子上时，我在想怎样才能成为一个更好的人。seat常用形容词seated作状语。故seating改为seated。
②考查冠词。person为可数名词，此处泛指“一个更好的人”，故需用不定冠词，故better前面加上a。
③考查冠词。句意：我知道事实上没有什么能阻挡我。in fact固定短语，“事实上”，故去掉the。
④考查非谓语动词。句意：因此，我决定不再等待未来来找我，立即采取行动。stop doing sth.固定短语，“停止做某事”，故wait改为waiting。

⑧考查名词。句意：我写下了我所有的目标，我需要学习什么技能，我将采取什么步骤来实现它们。goal为可数名词，前面有all，所以用复数名词。故goal改为goals。
⑨考查连词。根据句意可知，前后句子是并列关系，所以用and连接。故or改为and。
⑩考查形容词。句意：我相信，如果我继续努力，努力工作，我一定会成功的。根据上文be可知，应跟形容词作表语，故success改为successful。

19．【答案】Dear Mr. Smith,
I'm
Li Hua, a student from Class One, Senior Three. Many students in our school are
either wearing glasses because of their poor eyesight or overweight due to lack
of enough exercise. Therefore, I'm writing to give my suggestions on how to
improve students' heath. In my view, first, it's important to give us lectures
on health regularly. Besides, many students dislike doing sports because what
they can do after class is only running around the playground. We would enjoy
exercising if there were more types of exercises. By the way, more sports
events could be held to give us a way to develop team spirits and other good characters.
I hope you can take my suggestions into consideration.
Sincerely yours,
Li Hua

From 6 am to 7 pm, my father, my sixteen-year-old brother and I cut grass in very large yards. By the end of the day I was tired out, but I felt good, I had put in a hard day's work and earned six dollars, two dollars less than my elder brother did, though.
Another day, my father found some grass I had missed cutting and called me to his room. "Cut that section again!" he said firmly, "and don't make me tell you again." The message was very clear.
Today I stress the importance of doing a job right the first time.

12．（2019·西安模拟）阅读理解
For the past few months, my three-year-old daughter has spent an hour
every week learning a foreign language. She walks into a small room in a local
school, where she and a handful of three and four-year-old spend the next hour
dancing to “La Vaca Lola”, a song about a Spanish cow, creating finger
puppets(木偶) to voice what they like and
don't like (me gusta, no me gusta) and shouting out which animals are big
(grande) or small (pequeno).
She tells us little about the classes. In fact, for the first few weeks,
nothing at all. I begin to wonder if it was a huge mistake (each lesson works
out at about 9) but then I show her “La Vaca Lola” on YouTube. She shouts vaca
with enthusiasm and with what I hope is a Spanish accent.
The wish to enroll(使……加入) her in language lessons
came, like most things, gradually and then in a sudden rush. In my day job, I
read and edit stories about the Chinese economy. For a long time, I felt that
it would be good for her to learn another language but I had no great plan as
to when.
Then I read Edward Luce's The
Retreat of Western Liberalism and all my thoughts and worry about the
economy combined into a panic. Waking in a sweat, it seemed obvious that if my
daughter was to have any kind of future, she would have to learn another
language. Ideally (理想地)
immediately.
I thought about Mandarin Chinese, one of the top 10 languages most
important for our future, according to the British Council (others include
Arabic, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Russian, Dutch and Japanese). But
there were no classes for young children nearby. There were, however, local
Spanish classes—the number-one language on the list. When she started to sing "Incy
Wincy Spider" in Spanish and English—helped by a Spanish nursery
worker-our
decision was made.
（1）What can we learn about the author's daughter from the first paragraph
A．She uses finger puppets to make her voice heard.
B．She is the oldest student in her Spanish class.
C．She learns Spanish by dancing to songs.
D．She has learnt Spanish for one month.
（2）How did the author feel about her daughter's class at first
A．Proud. B．Surprised. C．Delighted D．Doubtful.
（3）Why did the author ask her daughter to learn a foreign language
A．To prepare her for the coming school education.
B．To equip her for her future.
C．To encourage her to have belief in herself.
D．To develop her interest in singing.
（4）What made the author decide to enroll her daughter in Spanish lessons
A．Her performance. B．Her great interest.
C．The nursery worker's suggestion. D．The fast-growing economy.

【知识点】推理判断题；细节理解题；故事阅读类；记叙文
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，作者让自己的女儿学习一种外语的原因以及学习过程中出现的一些问题。
（1）考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“She walks into a small room in a local school, where she and a handful of three and four-year-old spend the next hour dancing to La Vaca Lola”可知，她和几个3、4岁大的孩子在一起通过唱歌跳舞学西班牙语。故选C。
（2）考查推理判断。根据第二段中的”She tells us little about the classes I begin to wonder if it was a huge mistake (each lesson works out at about 9)“可知，作者的女儿从来不会谈起她的西班牙语课，这让作者很怀疑自己是否该给女儿报班学习。故作者最初对女儿的课感觉是可疑的。故选D。（3）考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段中的"it seemed obvious that if my daughter was to have any kind of future, she would have to learn another language."可知，作者认为自己的女儿若想有一个美好的未来就必须掌握一门外语。故选B。
（4）考查细节理解。根据最后一段中的”When she started to sing 'Incy Wincy Spider‘ in Spanish and English-helped by a Spanish nursery worker-our decision was made.？“当她开始用西班牙语和英语演唱“Incy Wincy Spider”时，在一位西班牙托儿所工作人员的帮助下，我们做出了决定。可知，是女儿的表现使作者决定让女儿学西班牙语。故选A。

13．（2019·西安模拟）阅读理解
"You know, the soft subjects," says the boy in maths.
"The easy ones: the stupid girls at the bottom take them. Like dance. It
shouldn't even be a subject." We're choosing subjects for our A-level
taster day at school. I see the raised eyebrows (眉毛) when I explain two of my GCSE (General
Certificate of Secondary Education) choices are dance and drama(戏剧).
I was told by advisers that dance and drama wouldn't help me to get a
suitable career. My friends told me I'd get bored of dance and switch to
science within the first month.
But taking GCSE dance was the best decision I ever made. Dance gives me
something to pour my head and heart into. It gives me a feeling of belonging,
creativity, security and freedom.
The education secretary Nicky Morgan has put emphasis on (强调) science, technology,
engineering and maths (STEM), saying that students who focus on the arts risk
their careers. Stopping young people from expressing themselves at such a young
age is not doing them any favours. Perhaps Nicky Morgan has forgotten to open
the door of having a drive to study that subject day in, day out. It shouldn't
matter what that subject is.
I don't doubt the influence that STEM subjects can have on the people
that love them. But to force children into one field is cruel. As much as I
try, I'm not good at and don't love physics, biology or maths. I don't want a
career in these areas.
There has been a decrease in the number of state schools offering arts
subjects taught by specialist teachers. I can't even imagine how it feels to be
told that you don't teach a "real subject" by an 8-year-old boy.
To the teachers, the parents, the government I say: Let children make
their own decisions. Let them live in the present. Let them have a real,
unlimited education.
（1）How does the boy in maths feel about dance
A．Useless. B．Difficult. C．Beautiful. D．Important.
（2）After the author took GCSE dance, she ________
A．lost interest in it B．kept her mind on it
C．turned to other subjects D．struggled with Her lessons
（3）What do we know about Nicky Morgan
A．She encourages students to learn soft subjects.
B．She suggests students take a risk in their careers.
C．She underlines the importance of STEM subjects.
D．She allows students to express themselves freely.
（4）What's the present situation of arts subjects
A．They attract much attention worldwide.
B．They are taught by non-professionals.
C．They are considered less important.
D．They have made great progress.
【答案】（1）A
（2）B
（3）C
（4）C
【知识点】推理判断题；细节理解题；学习教育类；议论文
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文，很多人认为艺术课是学习不好的孩子的救命稻草，是毫无用处的学科。而作者却认为艺术课给了她归属感，是使她不断奋斗的动力源泉。
（1）考查推理判断。根据第一段中的”The easy ones: the stupid girls at the bottom take them. Like dance. It shouldn't even be a subject.“很简单：底层愚蠢的女孩才会上这些课。就像跳舞。它甚至不应该成为一个学科。可知，学数学的男孩认为舞蹈没有用处。故选A。
（2）考查细节理解。根据第三段中的” Dance gives me something to pour my head and heart into“舞蹈给了我全身心投入的东西，可知，在作者参加完GCSE的舞蹈课程后，她就一直专注于此。故选B。
（3）考查细节理解。根据第四段中的”The education secretary Nicky Morgan has put emphasis on science , technology. engineering and maths (STEM)“可知，Nicky Morgan强调理工学科的重要性。故选C。
（4）考查推理判断。根据倒数第二段中的”There has been a decrease in the number of state schools offering arts subjects taught by specialist teachers“开设由专业教师讲授艺术课程的公立学校数量有所减少。可知，艺术学科被认为是不重要的，没有得到重视。故选C。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解和推理判断两个题型的考查，是一篇教育类阅读，考生需要准确捕捉细节信息，并根据上下文进行逻辑推理，从而选出正确答案。
14．（2019·西安模拟）阅读理解
Some years ago, Michel-Andre found himself staring at the body of a dead
whale on a beach in the Canary Islands. It was obvious that the animal had been
struck violently by a ship——but why Only later, after surveying the whales
which lived in the area and measuring the increase of sound pollution from
ships did it become clear that there was a link.
The whales had become desensitised to the noise of approaching
boats and were being struck by them, often seriously. "We never thought
that this could be something that could kill," recalls (回忆) Andre, who is the director
of the Laboratory of Applied Bioacoustics at the Technical University of
Catalonia, Barcelona.
Andre has spent 20 years developing an advanced system to better
understand why incidents like this happen. His underwater microphones have
exposed a world of deafening sound and animal communication never observed with
such clarity(清晰)
before.
It was not an easy task. Sound waves don't travel through water in the
uniform, predictable way they do through the air. Instead, the temperature,
salinity (盐度)
and, flow of water have great effects on their path.
What can be done One solution is to change shipping routes to courses
where ships are statistically less likely to meet animals. It's also possible
to slow ships down to 18km/h or less, which is less likely to seriously injure
a whale.
As for dealing with the root cause of the problem, the UN's
International Maritime Organisation has already published guidelines on how to
quieten ships, but
it will be a while before the effects of such changes might be observed.
"The ocean is not our world," comments Andre. But it is ours
to look after. And thanks to his work, we can better understand the effects of
subsea sound pollution.
（1）What does the underlined word "desensitised" in Paragraph 2 mean
A．Stubborn. B．Flexible. C．Dull. D．Friendly.
（2）What's one way to solve the problem according to the text
A．To lower the speed of ships.
B．To reduce the number of ships.
C．To set up preserves under the sea.
D．To give the injured animals timely treatment.
（3）What is the author's attitude towards what Michel Andre has done
A．Doubtful. B．Disapproving. C．Positive. D．Uncaring.
（4）What is the text mainly about
A．A great expert. B．Noise in the sea.
C．Animals in the sea. D．Sea exploration technology.
【答案】（1）C
（2）A
（3）C
（4）B
【知识点】主旨大意；推理判断题；词义猜测题；细节理解题；科普环保类；说明文
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了海底噪音对海洋生物的影响以及如何降低海底噪音的问题。
（1）考查词义猜测。根据第二段中的”the noise of approaching boats and were being struck by them, often seriously“可知，鲸鱼被靠近的船只碰撞，因为它们可能是对船只所产生的噪音比较“迟钝”。故可知划线部分单词意思为“迟钝的”。故选C。
（2）考查细节理解。根据第五段中的”It's also possible to slow ships down to 18 km/h or less, which is less likely to seriously injure a whale.“也有可能将船只减速到每小时18公里或更少，这样就不太可能严重伤害鲸鱼。可知，降低船只速度是文中提到的一种解决办法。故选A。
（3）考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的”And thanks to his work, we can better understand the effects of subsea sound pollution.“由于他的工作，我们可以更好地了解海底声音污染的影响。可知，作者对Michel Andre所做的工作十分认可。故选C。
（4）考查主旨大意。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了海底噪音对海洋生物的影响以及如何降低海底噪音的问题，故选B。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，词义猜测，推理判断和主旨大意四个题型的考查，是一篇科研类阅读，要求考生在捕捉细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，概括和归纳，从而选出正确答案。

【答案】what；spinning；her；are set；direction；typically；to；where；to gather；tiring
【知识点】语法填空
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了Cathy Martin 以及她的团队是如何收集数据预测飓风的。
（1）考查宾语从句。句意：每年有六个月的时间，她是一个团队的成员，这个团队收集她所说的“重要数据，以拯救生命和财产”。本句为宾语从句，因为从句中缺少宾语，指代事物，故填what。
（2）考查非谓语动词。句意：当风力增强，向加勒比海和美国海岸线旋转时，马丁和她的飞行团队立即行动起来。spin与逻辑主语wind是主动关系，故填现在分词作状语，故填spinning。
（3）考查代词。修饰名词flight team使用形容词性物主代词，故填her。
（4）考查时态语态。句意：他们使用一种叫做下投式探空仪的仪器，这种仪器从飞机后部的管子中释放出来。主语是dropsondes与谓语动词构成被动关系，结合上下文使用一般现在时，主语为复数名词，故填are set。
（5）考查名词。句意：当探空仪降落在10000英尺的海面上时，它会发出有关空气温度、压力、湿度以及风速和风向的信息。根据上文名词并列结构the speed and可知，应填名词，故填direction。
（6）考查副词。句意：在8小时的飞行中，马丁的团队从风暴的一边飞到另一边时，通常会放下15到20个探空仪，试图覆盖尽可能多的地面。修饰动词drop应用副词，故填typically。
（7）考查介词。from…to…固定短语，“从……到……”，故填to。
（8）考查定语从句。句意：他们前往风暴中心(或风眼)，那里没有风，也寻找最强的风，帮助沿海地区的人们为即将到来的风暴做好准备。本句为定语从句修饰先行词center，且在定语从句中作地点状语，故填关系副词where。
（9）考查非谓语动词。句意：有时，他们会使用无人驾驶飞机收集更接近海洋表面的数据。本句为不定式to do作目的状语，故填to gather。
（10）考查形容词。句意：虽然这些飞行时间很长，也很累，而且常常会持续好几天，但马丁喜欢她的工作，希望她能每天都飞。根据上文系动词be可知，应填形容词作表语，修饰物，故填tiring。

I knew there was nothing standing in my way in the fact. Therefore, I decided
to stop wait for the future to find myself and take action immediately. To
begin to find a direction, I try to find my greatest strengths and find out
that would bring me joy. I wrote out all my goal, what skills I would need to
learn or what steps I would take to achieve them. I believe that I can be very
success if I keep trying and work hard.
【答案】①seating →seated ②better前面加上a ③去掉the ④wait →waiting⑤myself →me ⑥try →tried ⑦that →what ⑧goal →goals ⑨or →and ⑩success →successful
【知识点】短文改错
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文，讲述作者要变得更好，于是作者决定停止等待，立即采取行动，作者相信如果努力工作，作者会取得很大的成功。
①考查非谓语动词。句意：有一天，当我坐在椅子上时，我在想怎样才能成为一个更好的人。seat常用形容词seated作状语。故seating改为seated。
②考查冠词。person为可数名词，此处泛指“一个更好的人”，故需用不定冠词，故better前面加上a。
③考查冠词。句意：我知道事实上没有什么能阻挡我。in fact固定短语，“事实上”，故去掉the。
④考查非谓语动词。句意：因此，我决定不再等待未来来找我，立即采取行动。stop doing sth.固定短语，“停止做某事”，故wait改为waiting。
⑤考查代词。表示等着未来来找到我，所以用宾格代词me作宾语。故myself改为me。
⑥考查时态。句意：为了开始寻找方向，我试着找到我最大的优势，找出什么能给我带来快乐。描述过去的事情，所以用一般过去时态。故try改为tried。
⑦考查宾语从句。本句为宾语从句，且从句中缺少主语，表示“……的东西”，所以用what引导。故that改为what。
⑧考查名词。句意：我写下了我所有的目标，我需要学习什么技能，我将采取什么步骤来实现它们。goal为可数名词，前面有all，所以用复数名词。故goal改为goals。
⑨考查连词。根据句意可知，前后句子是并列关系，所以用and连接。故or改为and。
⑩考查形容词。句意：我相信，如果我继续努力，努力工作，我一定会成功的。根据上文be可知，应跟形容词作表语，故success改为successful。
【点评】本题考点涉及非谓语动词，冠词，代词，时态，宾语从句，名词。连词以及形容词等多个知识点的考查，是一篇教育类阅读，覆盖面广，综合性强，难度较大，区分度高。

【答案】Dear Mr. Smith,
I'm
Li Hua, a student from Class One, Senior Three. Many students in our school are
either wearing glasses because of their poor eyesight or overweight due to lack
of enough exercise. Therefore, I'm writing to give my suggestions on how to
improve students' heath. In my view, first, it's important to give us lectures
on health regularly. Besides, many students dislike doing sports because what
they can do after class is only running around the playground. We would enjoy
exercising if there were more types of exercises. By the way, more sports
events could be held to give us a way to develop team spirits and other good characters.
I hope you can take my suggestions into consideration.
Sincerely yours,
Li Hua
