一、阅读理解。
A
(重庆期末)I used to work two jobs and raise my 6yearold son all by myself. Every week, I worried if I would have enough money. In the evenings, my son and I would spend a little time together, but he could feel my stress even though I tried to hide it from him.
One night, I was reading him a story about a family who had everything…a new car, a beautiful home. It felt like a world far from our own, like something from a fairy tale(童话故事). Tears came to my eyes. I turned away so my son wouldn't see me like this.
But my young and very smart little boy seemed to understand what I was feeling. He said, “Mommy, don't cry. This family might have a lot of things, but you know what? We are rich, too.”
I looked at him, not quite sure what he meant. He went on, “We might not have a lot, but we have each other, and we love each other. Money can't buy that!” I smiled and said, “Yes, you are right. Let me give you a kiss.” I kissed his face for a long time. This kiss will stay with us forever and ever, and ever.

四、阅读与表达。
(丹东二模)What makes you happy? Some say that's time when they spend with their families. Others say it's time with friends.The problem is that there isn't just one thing that makes everyone happy. Happiness is something different for each of us and can change in different situations.
However, there are some things that can help improve our mood when we're feeling unhappy. Experts believe that exercise can make us happier. It is because exercise gives off chemicals(化学物质)that make us happy in our brain. And the chemicals have something with a feeling of pleasure.
There's another surprising idea to help make us happier. We may think that eating chocolate is bad for us but it seems good to eat chocolate when we're feeling sad. According to some researches, eating chocolate can make us feel happy.
It's also important to remember that we can't be happy all the time. There are ups and downs in our life. We have to face different kinds of feelings no matter they are good or bad. But we can also be happy for small things. For example, you're sitting on a beach watching the sunset(日落)on the sea, with friends around you, and you feel happy. Just enjoy your time and keep it in mind!

When I feel unhappy, I like to listen to my favourite music or watch a funny movie. Sometimes, I also talk to my friends or go for a walk to clear my mind.(开放性试题,答案不唯一)
Imagine you're reading a book and you reach the last page. What do you do? You turn the page, right? Life is like that, too. Sometimes, we reach a point where things aren't going well, like a bad chapter in a book. But instead of ending the book, we can turn the page and start a new chapter.
It's not easy, though.Life throws us problems, like a test at school. We need to be ready for them and learn from them. If we make a mistake, like choosing the wrong path, we need to accept it and move on.
We can't do it alone. We need help from friends and family, like classmates and teachers helping each other. They can give us advice and support, like a friend listening to us and giving us a hug.
We also need to be brave and try new things, like trying a new sport or learning a new skill. Sometimes, we might fail, like losing a game, but that's okay. We can learn from our mistakes and try again.
And most importantly, we need to let go of the past, like throwing away old clothes. Holding onto bad memories and feelings only makes us feel worse. We need to forgive ourselves and others, like forgiving a friend who made a mistake.
So, when you reach a point where things are tough, remember that you can always turn the page and start a new chapter. Be ready for the challenges, ask for help, try new things, and let go of the past. Believe in yourself. You can do it!
