Life is full of chances and challenges. For students,       we don’t study hard，we will fall     other students. At first, I didn’t know     the word “exam” meant. Later, I knew an exam was a    of competition. In competitions, there were always    and losers. As I grew up, I got to know competitions well. In one’s life, there must be competitions, so people could    . Each time I saw children   games, and heard their laughter, I      I were that age again. However, I remembered my parents’ words--You must work very hard       have a good future. So I   up my pen and began to study hard again.
I was still not    what competitions really meant. One day, I was   an English-speaking competition. When I went to the stage, I saw other students looking at me kindly. I suddenly knew what the competition was. It was not as cruel   my teacher and parents told me. In fact, competitions were important and necessary.
I learned a lot   what I experienced. Now I understand15  about the world. Competitions are important for us all.

Why are first ladies so important in the United States? They are unpaid and have no official work? There are several reasons, but the most important reason is they are role models for other women in the United States.
Jacqueline Kennedy was the best first lady in the US. Although she wasn’t an actress, model or singer, she was a fashion and cultural icon who charmed people wherever she went.
If you are looking for someone who is as charming as Jacqueline Kennedy, it will be hard to find anyone more suitable than Peng Liyuan, wife of Chinese President Xi Jinping. If you were writing a novel and trying to describe the perfect mixture of personal history, confident lady for a character, you’d come up with someone like Peng.
Born into a family in Shandong province, she joined the People’s Liberation Army at the age of 18, doing pretty well in singing military(军旅) songs. But she is not only famous for her voice and great achievements, but also for her charity efforts. She has, among other things, worked as a member of World Health Organization to fight against AIDS, and has done much for 2008 Sichuan earthquake.
The media reported Peng’s trip with her husband. This was Xi’s first foreign trip as president and the first time that China’s first lady appears like a modern woman on Peng Liyuan’s first official state visit. The trip shows that she can be a role model for Chinese women, especially young Chinese women at home and abroad.
In the past, China has not had a tradition of first ladies like in the US. Now that China has a higher position on the world stage, it can have its first lady! And Peng Liyuan is the perfect person with whom to begin.

First ladies are important in the US because__________.

Which is NOT right according to the passage?

What information can you get from the passage?

You either have it, or you don’t－a sense of direction. But why is it that some people could find their way across the Sahara without a map while others can lose themselves in the next street?
Scientists say we’re all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood how it works. One theory is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it. Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we don’t use it, we lose it.
“Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around,” says Jim Martland, research director of the project. “However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop the skills.”
Jim Martland also emphasizes that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction. He makes the following suggestions:
If you are using a map, turn it so that it relates to(与……有联系) the way you are facing.
If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something like a big stone or a tree－something easy to recognize. Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike. When you return, go back along the same route.
Simplify(简化) the way for finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town, streams, or wells in the countryside to guide you. Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note any landmarks such as towerblocks or hills which can help to find out where you are.
Now you will never get lost again!

Children have the ability to find the way around when they are      years old.

It is well known that everyone has his own dream as well as his own future. But do you know what future really is? I have to say that future is now. That is to say we must treasure every minute now. If we want to have a bright future, we should know how important time is and use it well.
There is an old English saying: “Gain time, gain life.” Then what’s time? Time is something that we can’t see or touch, but we can feel it passing by. Time is always with us. When we are at table, time passes; when we play, time goes by unnoticeable. We always say “Time is money”, but time is even more precious(珍贵的)than money, because when money is spent , we can earn it back. But if time is gone away, it will never return. So, some of us even say time is priceless(无价的).
We should always remember: future is now. For us students, we should try our best to work hard in order to create a great future of our own. We should make the best use of every hour and be the master of today. We should do everything before us as well as possible. And never put off what can be done today till tomorrow.
As we all know, “Time and tide wait for no man.” If you waste today, you will regret tomorrow. So from now on, work hard. Tomorrow will be better, and your future will be brighter. Remember: “No pains, no gains.” Today’s hard work is the cause of tomorrow’s harvest.

A tragic mystery happened in South-east Asia. Malaysia(马来西亚) Airlines flight 370 took off early Saturday morning, March 8th, in 2014. It was headed from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia to Beijing, China. There were 12 crew members and 227 passengers on board, i        154 Chinese. But less than an hour into the flight, it d          . There was no communication from the pilots and no distress calls(遇险求救信号). There was something unusual about the flight. Some of the people on it weren't who they said they were. Interpol, an international police organization says at l          two of the passports were stolen in the past two years. The first thing is to find the plane. It is said that the plane may have changed course and turned b           towards Kuala Lumpur. We don’t know w           exactly happened to the plane. All of us hoped it could return safely. However, 17 days l           after the accident, Malaysian Prime Minister told the world that flight MH370 ended in the southern Indian Ocean and none of those on board survived. What bad news!
