Everybody wants a new start for a new school year. So, students often go back-to-school shopping. They buy school things and shoes. But, the story is not so easy.
"Mum, I want this pair of shoes!"
"Dear! Those are 900 yuan! That is too __16___ !"
"But all the boys in my class wear this brand (牌子)!"
So the real story is: Kids___17____to catch up with school fashion.
Chinese students __18__ uniforms at school. Parents think all the kids look the same, but kids know the differences. The "rich" kids wear amazing watches, ride good 19__and use cool pencil cases. They show off their expensive things to 20__ kids. Then everyone else wants them too. For example, some "rich" kids use a pencil box that _21_1,000 yuan! It not only holds pencils, but also has a thermometer (温度计), a compass (指南针), a music box and even games in it! But think about it. Do you really need ____22___ a special pencil box? What can you do with a compass or a thermometer in class? They only distract (分散注意) you.
As for these "rich" kids, they are not rich at all. 23__ parents buy them all their school things. They may have an advantage now, but it won’t last forever. If you want to show off __24__ money you have, you have to make it yourself first. So, study hard. You will get a great job in the future.

As an exchange student, I have been staying in a host family in Beijing for the past five months. The parents are 36 in their mid-30s and the son just turned 5. In exchange for room and board, I teach their son 37 .
Like in many of the other Chinese families, he’s an only child. And though he has 38 plastic trucks and boxes full of crayons, I don’t know 39 he has the time to play. When he’s not in the kindergarten, he’s taking after-school classes. On the weekends, the boy goes to more classes. He has one day off―Sunday.
Compared to his schedule, I feel like my childhood was 40 a waste of time. I learned how to climb trees and draw cartoons. I wasn’t learning Chinese at his age. But he and lots of other children are learning English. Both his parents dream that he will have 41 jobs, higher pay, and bigger houses.
The boy seems to take no interest 42 learning English. He doesn’t need a teacher, but a playmate. He is, 43 , only 5. When I think about my life as a 5-year-old, I know for sure I wasn’t half as 44 as he is.
In the evening, when his parents 45 him to speak with me in English, he gets 46 . He lies on the floors, hides under the table and climbs on the furniture. When he finally stops 47 , and starts talking, it isn’t in English, but it isn’t in Chinese, 48 . He speaks in his own language.

Different from popular thoughts, sometimes flu（流感） is not caused by bad weather. It is caused by viruses in the body. 51 , A/H1N1 flu has been spreading in the most parts in the world. Some studies have now shown that one of 52 ways of spreading the viruses is through the air when 53 A/H1N1 flu-sufferer coughs or sneezes. However, its viruses can sometimes spread by 54 . After a flu-sufferer rubs his nose, the viruses might be spread to his hand. Then a friend 55 to visit him, they shake their hands. The friend then gets something 56 by hand, and several days 57, he is infected. A child 58 is carrying A/H1N1 viruses uses tissues（面纸） to clean his running nose, although his parents pick up the tissues and carefully throw 59 away, they fail to wash their hands, and they will catch the viruses, too. So it is important for you to wash your hands often, it will stop the viruses from 60 in a way.

What do you think of stress? Is it a good thing or a bad thing?
Most of the students think stress can do harm (伤害) 46 them in some ways. There’s a story about a teenager in a middle school. He even 47 his study because of the stress from school and family. We also usually 48 that someone turns to psychological doctors because of heavy working stress. There is no doubt (疑问) that some people think stress is a dangerous wolf.
On the other hand, other people argue that stress is not a bad thing. They 49 stress can produce momentum (动力）in the end. For them, right attitude and action can reduce (减少) stress and make it 50 . When I was a child, my mom always pushed me to study hard. She wished I could go to an ideal 51 for further education. I experienced stress for the first time. To a poor family, I deeply knew 52 was not easy for us, and everything my mom did to me was just to hope I could live a better life in the future. 53 the saying goes, “No pains, no gains.” So I did what my mom expected because I didn’t want to let her down. At last, I did measure up (达到标准）to my mom’s expectation and go to college 54 . Thanks to my mom’s push! Thanks to the stress! In this way, I don’t think stress is a bad thing.
Overall, stress is not a bad thing in 55 . The key is how we deal with it.

Of course you don’t want to be sick in your vacation. So what can you do while traveling? There are three things you should remember: relax, sleep and eat well.
A vacation is a time for relaxing, but very often it is not. Think about what you do when you are a tourist. There are so many places to visit: shop, parks, churches and temples ( 寺庙). You may spend most of the days walking around these places. This can be very tiring. Do not ask your body to do too much. A tired body means a weak body. A weak body gets dick easily. So sit down for a few hours in a nice place. In good weather, look for a quiet park bench.
Sleep is also important. If you want to stay healthy, you need to get enough sleep. Your hotel room may be noisy, or the bed may be too hard. Or you may want to stay out late at night. Then you should plan to sleep for an hour during the day. The extra hour can make a big difference.
Finally, if you want to stay healthy, you must eat well. That means eating the right kinds of food. Your boday needs fresh fruit, vegetables, mean, milk and cheese.

You can have the same CD for half of the price by clicking(敲击)on your computer. And we can find any CD you want and bring it to your door in 24 hours!”

u won’t_____.
| A．spend the time and the money | B．drive your car any more |

I love it at night. It’s peaceful. And when it cools down I sometimes do some ironing. I don’t really care for it. I work full-time and I am too busy for most housework. I remember the old woman who taught me to iron. I was about 15 and I had to get a job taking care of a woman to make a living. She had been an able-bodied, healthy woman until the accident that caused her to be paralyzed.
The woman sat in an electric wheelchair all day. She could only move her head and arms. She would tell me how to do things. She would teach me in great detail on the correct ways to do things. Her home was perfect and beautiful. She would follow me around in her electric wheelchair to make sure I did everything exactly right. I’m sure she had been a perfect homemaker. She would have me fold(折叠) everything, including socks. I would
complain silently and wish terrible things on her. She taught me the right way to make the bed. I know sometimes she’d get frustrated(沮丧) and impatient with me. I knew she wanted to do it herself. But she never shouted or scolded. She
only insisted I do it right. I didn’t like it much, but I did it.
Today I can iron pretty well. I know where to start on a shirt and the right way to do the trousers. Now when I think about it, I don’t think she is an old lady. I think she might have been about my age now. Anyway, when I iron, I think of her and silently thank her for all the things I learned.The writer used to take care of the lady because ________.
| A．she wanted to learn to do housework |
| B．she was a friend of the lady’s |
| C．she had to earn some money |
| D．she couldn’t find a room to live in |
The underlined word ‘paralyzed’ in the first paragraph may mean ‘______’.
| A．destroyed | B．deaf | C．seriously ill | D．unable to walk |
The little girl was ______ when the lady taught her how to do housework.
| A．encouraged to learn | B．unwilling to learn |
| C．delighted to learn | D．recommended to learn |
Now the writer ______.
| A．is still afraid of the lady | B．hates the strict lady |
| C．admires the disabled lady | D．is very grateful to the lady |
