A
Doing housework is part of our life. How about middle school students? We do a survey it among 100 students. We can get some information from the survey. A few of students often do housework. Some students do housework sometimes. And most students never do housework. This result takes me by surprise. Maybe some students dislike to do housework or their parents don’t allow them to do housework.
It’s important for middle school students to do housework, like cleaning, cooking dinner, collecting and washing the dishes or even washing the clothes. If you often cook a meal or clean the garden, you can do better in school— like schoolwork or problem solving.
Doing housework not only teaches you life skills but also makes you responsible for being a part of a family. It’ll help you make better decisions and build confidence. Doing housework can also improve your abilities to work in the future and make you successful.
As a middle school student, it is time for you to do more housework and learn to be independent. Those skills will help you all your life.
Doing housework is learning. It’s exploring. It’s a fun activity worth trying.

China has a long history of using incense(熏香).Chinese people love incense and know how to make it. Different kinds of Chinese herbal(药草的)medicines were chosen by ancient Chinese to make incense that could clean the air and keep the mind clear.
As early as the pre-Qin period,people burnt incense to wish for a better life. Later, it was found that incense could be used to keep away insects. Gradually, the ancient people began to use incense to eliminate(清除)foul gas(臭气) and avoid illness.
In ancient times, incense would also be used to tell time. For example, in the calculation(计算) of exam time people would light a stick of incense. When it burned out, the exam was over. This is what Chinese people call “the duration of a stick of incense". What's more, incense in the shape of balls would be put in a special bag. Different smells of incense can work differently. When it is heated, the cloth covering this bag also smells fantastic.
It's said that incense can also be used to improve people's health. When I feel stressed, the pleasant smell can make me relaxed. I feel that I can taste the classical culture from the incense. Ancient Chinese people believed that beautiful things that smell good could help people relax.
Chinese people still like incense now. It brings out the intelligence of the mind and silently harmonizes (协调)the mind and the body.

Ten years ago, I made a decision. This decision has greatly changed the way I communicate with others, the way I spend my free time and what I research, although I did not know it at the time.
It wasn’t long after I got my first smartphone that I began to notice that I couldn’t pay attention to my work all the time. I also noticed that smartphones didn’t just influence people at work. They competed for our attention when we spent time even with the closest people in our lives. A year after buying my smartphone, I decided that I was going to research whether smartphones influence happiness.
Since then, my partners and I have done a lot of experiments. We’ve found that friends with their phones on the table while eating enjoyed the experience less than those sharing a meal with their phones put away. In another study, parents asked to be on their phones while enjoying a science museum with their children found the experience less meaningful than parents asked to limit (限制) their phone use.
Based on these results, you might think I believe that smartphones are ruining our lives. I’ve even had friends tell me that they are more self-conscious (自觉的). When they use their phones around me. The truth is that I neither hate my phone nor judge the way others use their phones.
However, I have to say that the research has influenced the way I use my phone. I usually put it on silent, so that I have more control over my attention. In fact, I would argue that my smartphone has improved my happiness. With it in my pocket wherever I go, I can save time when ordering my morning coffee, finding the best restaurant or doing my banking. What’s more, without my smartphone, I would not have met my husband.
11.What decision did the author make ten years ago?

A.its examples B. its purpose C. its results D. its steps
13.What does the underlined word “ruining” probably`mean?
A.Making...shorter. B.Making...worse. C.Making... harder. D.Making...busier.
14.Which of the following does the author agree with?
①The phone saves her a lot of time. ②The phone keeps her family life busy.
③The phone has helped her find a life partner. ④The phone makes her more focused on work.
A.①④ B.②③ C.①③ D.②④
15.What does the author mainly want to tell us?

Dear schoolmates,
I am Li Yang from the Students’ Union. We’re having an activity of being a good student.
First of all, we must love our country and home. We should be honest and keep our promise. And we should also be friendly to the people around us. Secondly, it’s our duty to study hard, and we should try our best to achieve our dreams. Next, taking exercise can make us keep healthy. After that, we are supposed to show love to nature and protect the environment. Animals are our friends, so we should get on well with them. What’s more, we should get into the habit of taking an active part in all kinds of activities, such as tidying up the classroom and helping our parents with housework.
Come on! I believe we can make it.
That’s all. Thanks!
