Maybe this person can help you to talk with your mom or dad about your problems.
Once you know who you can talk to, you should choose a time and a place that you can talk. If you think it’s difficult for you to say what you think, write it down on a piece of paper. If the person can’t understand what you mean right away, try to say it in a different way or give an example.

During the Jin Dynasty, there was a child named Che Yin. He was smart and loved to read. He grew up in a poor family and there was no light for him to study at night.
One night, he saw fireflies (萤火虫) outside his house and came up with an idea. He caught many fireflies and put them in a bag. With the weak light of the fireflies, Che Yin could see the words on the books, and he spent all of his summer nights reading like this.
At the same time, another child named Sun Kang also loved reading. One night during winter, Sun used up all of his lamp oil (灯油) and couldn’t study any longer. He was worried and didn’t know what to do. Suddenly, he found that the snow outside was shining under the moonlight. His first thought was “Oh, I can use the light from the snow to read!” He took out his books and read carefully, even though the weather was really cold.
Both of the two kids became very successful when they grew up. People thought they were really hard-working and the Chinese saying nangyingyingxue even came from their stories, which means “to read by the light of bagged fireflies or the moonlight from the snow”.
In the past, people had a harder time studying than we do now. The light was not the only difficulty in their way. Books were expensive and difficult to get, so they usually had to copy books by hand. They even had to travel over mountains and rivers in order to find a good teacher. However, these difficulties never stopped young people from getting knowledge.
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。
41. Why did Che Yin catch fireflies?
A. Because the fireflies were beautiful.
B. Because he could sell them to make money.
C. Because he thought it was fun to catch fireflies.
D. Because he wanted to use their light to read at night.
42. What did Sun Kang use to read outside?
A. A bag of fireflies. B. The light from the fire.
C. The light from the snow outside. D. An old lamp borrowed from a neighbor.
43 What do the two children have in common?
A. They invented a Chinese saying.
B. They helped other people to study.
C. They were hard-working and smart.
D. They wasted their time during the daytime.

It may be really hard to tell others that you’re feeling sad or worried. If you keep these feelings in your heart and don’t talk about them with others, you may even fall ill at last.

During the Jin Dynasty, there was a child named Che Yin. He was smart and loved to read. He grew up in a poor family and there was no light for him to study at night.
One night, he saw fireflies (萤火虫) outside his house and came up with an idea. He caught many fireflies and put them in a bag. With the weak light of the fireflies, Che Yin could see the words on the books, and he spent all of his summer nights reading like this.
At the same time, another child named Sun Kang also loved reading. One night during winter, Sun used up all of his lamp oil (灯油) and couldn’t study any longer. He was worried and didn’t know what to do. Suddenly, he found that the snow outside was shining under the moonlight. His first thought was “Oh, I can use the light from the snow to read!” He took out his books and read carefully, even though the weather was really cold.
Both of the two kids became very successful when they grew up. People thought they were really hard-working and the Chinese saying nangyingyingxue even came from their stories, which means “to read by the light of bagged fireflies or the moonlight from the snow”.
In the past, people had a harder time studying than we do now. The light was not the only difficulty in their way. Books were expensive and difficult to get, so they usually had to copy books by hand. They even had to travel over mountains and rivers in order to find a good teacher. However, these difficulties never stopped young people from getting knowledge.
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。
41. Why did Che Yin catch fireflies?
A. Because the fireflies were beautiful.
B. Because he could sell them to make money.
C. Because he thought it was fun to catch fireflies.
D. Because he wanted to use their light to read at night.
42 What did Sun Kang use to read outside?
A. A bag of fireflies. B. The light from the fire.
C. The light from the snow outside. D. An old lamp borrowed from a neighbor.
43. What do the two children have in common?
A. They invented a Chinese saying.
B. They helped other people to study.
C. They were hard-working and smart.
D. They wasted their time during the daytime.
44. How many difficulties in studying are there in the last paragraph?
