Being short of work and money made my wife, our baby boy and me live with my parents. We slept in my old bedroom, and I was feeling upset. Thankfully, I had one new job: helping my son learn how to walk. Anytime he took a few steps, however, he would fall down and cry. I had to bend over (俯身) and hold (抓住) his hand while he walked along. But my back wouldn’t let me do that for long. As I sat there with my eyes closed, I suddenly heard my mother say, “Joe, look!” I opened my eyes and watched my son grab the coffee table, pull (拉) himself up and smile. Next with a giggle (咯咯的笑), he started walking around it, keeping his hands on it for balance (平衡). Finally, when he reached the end of it, he took two big steps and made it to the wall. Then he started walking down the hall with his hands balancing on the wall the whole way. I laughed and cheered (欢呼). Suddenly, I realized losing the job wasn’t so bad, because my boy had learned to walk. Trying to do something new is a lot like first learning to walk. We often fall and cry. However, as long as we try again, we will find our own feet and know how to do it. Don’t be afraid to step out. Don’t be afraid to fall. 41.

Bending over too much is bad for the writer’s back. B. The writer’s mother found her grandson could walk. C. The writer was happy that his son could walk alone. D.

Pauline Jones wants to _______ after she finishes her work as a volunteer. A. stay there for another year B. go back home to start work C. learn about the people home D. travel around Central America D I was sitting on my mom’s sofa and thinking of my difficult life. Being short of work and money made my wife, our baby boy and me live with my parents. We slept in my old bedroom, and I was feeling upset. Thankfully, I had one new job: helping my son learn how to walk. Anytime he took a few steps, however, he would fall down and cry. I had to bend over (俯身) and hold (抓住) his hand while he walked along. But my back wouldn’t let me do that for long. As I sat there with my eyes closed, I suddenly heard my mother say, “Joe, look!” I opened my eyes and watched my son grab the coffee table, pull (拉) himself up and smile. Next with a giggle (咯咯的笑), he started walking around it, keeping his hands on it for balance (平衡). Finally, when he reached the end of it, he took two big steps and made it to the wall. Then he started walking down the hall with his hands balancing on the wall the whole way. I laughed and cheered (欢呼). Suddenly, I realized losing the job wasn’t so bad, because my boy had learned to walk. Trying to do something new is a lot like first learning to walk. We often fall and cry. However, as long as we try again, we will find our own feet and know how to do it. Don’t be afraid to step out. Don’t be afraid to fall. 41.

It has a long history in China. Jiaozi is one of the most important foods in Chinese New Year. Since jiaozi is in the shape of old Chinese silver ingots（银锭）, it symbolizes wealth（象征着财富）. Traditionally, the members of a family get together to make dumplings on New Year’s evenings. They may hide something in one of the dumplings. They think it will bring good luck to the person who finds it. As the Spring Festival means the start of a new year, people choose to eat jiaozi in the hope of having a good future in the coming new year. When you have dumplings, you can make different kinds of Chinese jiaozi using different fillings（馅料）. There is no rule as to what makes dumpling fillings. They can be anything from vegetables, meat or seafood. Whatever the fillings are, the wrapping（包）skill needs to be exquisite（精美的）to make jiaozi good-looking. As China is a country with vast territory（幅员辽阔）, there are differences in different areas in ways of making jiaozi or even serving it. 66.
