The anti-bullying film Better Days deepened my understanding of school bullying (校园霸凌) . I used to think school bullying was far from us, but that is not the case. We are seeing an i 1 in school bullying all over the world. These unfortunate incidents are causing harm to many young people.
Many teenagers suffer from school bullying. The reason why we don’t know about their suffering is that many of them don’t dare to speak out about their experiences. Some do speak out, but no one around them is willing to help them got t 2 their tough days. The effect of school bullying on the victim can last a lifetime. It’s time we did something about this problem.
Another reason is that social media makes it much e 3 to be a bully. Bullies today don't have to face the person they’re bullying. They can just post a hurtful comment or an embarrassing photo on Weibo or in a WeChat group chat. Everyone in the class, or even the whole school, will see it. Some may even join in with their own unkind comments to “mob (围攻) ” the victim.
The bully and the “mob” may think it’s fun. However, their actions can d 4 the life of the victim. They can cause depression and anxiety (焦虑). This shouldn’t happen and it doesn’t have to happen. And you can actually stop it.
If you see someone being bullied in your school, or anywhere. don’t be q 5 . Don’t just say to yourself. “It’s not my problem.” If you’re too shy to face the bully yourself, then you should at least be brave enough to report the incident to a teacher as soon as possible. And you should also be willing to stand up for the victim even when others do not.
Last but not least, we should try our best to p 6 school bullying from happening. Perhaps schools can pay more a 7 to students’ mental health since scientists have found bullies are nearly twice as likely to have mental health problems.
I’d like to call on all schools and families to sit up and take notice of school bullying. I sincerely hope all students can have a happy school life.

Do you sometimes feel like you live in a tiny world where everyone says the things you believe? It is a bit like being in an “echo (回声) chamber (房间)”, where your thoughts r 1 to you without hearing other ideas. With social media, it happens more common.
Think of echo chambers as invisible rooms on the Internet where everyone a 2 with your idea. Think about how people used to sit around a fire, telling stories that made everyone else all nod and smile. Now, we have the Internet where people from around the world share thoughts that make us nod and smile.
Social media platforms are so smart that they even know what we like. They use special t 3 called algorithms (算法) to learn everything from what we click, like, and share online. These algorithms watch what we do on the Internet to show us more information that m 4 our interests and even what our friends like.
However, staying in an echo chamber has its problems. Although they make us feel happy because we’re surrounded by the s 5 views, they actually make us see the world in a very limited way. It’s hard for us to understand others who think differently. We might even feel l 6 and worried, thinking everyone outside our rooms seems so strange.
L 7 , there are ways for us to escape the echo chambers. Start by trying new websites, read various stories, and chat with people who have other views. Always ask where the information comes from, check facts, and stay open-minded. This helps us learn about the big, wide world much better.

“The aim we want most of all is to help children understand they can enjoy reading, as well as p 3 their skills,” said Hannas, an education researcher. He suggested parents take their children to the library and allow them to pick out books that i 4 them.

“We’re trying to get parents into the h 6 of reading with their kids.” said the headmaster. “Nothing is better than sitting on a sofa with your child and reading and laughing.”
T 7 books, Mrs. Smith, a parent, said she’s able to give her two daughters more experiences than she could.

Waste sorting is a simple process that requires neither a lot of time nor any special resources. When you throw away trash (废物), do you know which bin it should go in? Have you ever n 1 the differently-colored trash bins on the street or in your neighborhood?
Some of you might not be able to answer this question easily. In fact, it is very important. Not knowing how to sort waste can make it even h 2 to save energy and protect the environment.
If you don’t sort your trash, all of it will go to a landfill (垃圾填埋场) and be m 3 together. These landfills can take up large areas of ground that could have been used for planting trees or crops. The electronic waste can pollute the soil and groundwater (地下水). Other pieces of garbage, like the metal part of a pen, can be used to make other things if they are properly recycled.
With this in mind, many cities in China have been running waste-sorting activities in recent years. For example, Shanghai announced in July 2019 that within three years, all of its residents should sort their waste into f 4 groups: wet, recyclable, harmful and dry.
Many other c 5 , including Shenzhen and Qingdao, plan to use this method to sort their waste. Now that you know this, perhaps you can do your part to protect the environment and encourage others to sort their trash.
Waste sorting is also a major problem around the world. Different countries are using different methods to sort their trash. Japan is l 6 the world in waste sorting. It is a very important part of Japanese life and Japanese people will expect foreigners to follow their belief.

But n 2 again did my mother come in my room with the expression of her love.
From time to time, with the passing years, my thoughts r 3 to that night. By then I missed my mother’s hands, missed her goodnight kiss on my forehead. Sometimes the picture seemed very c 4 , sometimes far away. But always it was in my mind.
Well, the years have passed, and I’m not a little girl any more. Mom is in her mid-seventies, and those hands I once thought to be so rough are still doing things for me and my family.

My name Is Brad Li. I’m here today to tell you about my experience as an exchange student in the United States last year.
I must admit that at first America was a big culture shock for me. Many things were s 1 to me: the language, the food and even the school.
I stayed with a host family in a small town. My host parents, Mr and Mrs Hurst, were very kind. They o 2 a lot of activities for me in my spare time so that I wouldn’t miss home or feel lonely.
However, to a certain degree, life in the US was hard to get used to. My main problem was with the language. I failed to know clearly in the first few weeks because everyone spoke so fast. T 3 I soon managed to get used to it, I still had problems because they used a lot of idioms. For example, they often say they are “under the weather” when they are ill. Their everyday English is very different from what we learn in China.
Another d 4 was the food. My host family always had bread, potatoes and salad for meals. I really missed the dumplings, rice and delicious dishes from home.
School was a big shock too. They do not require students to wear uniforms, so students can wear a 5 anything what they like. Some students have interesting hairstyles as well. Some students even have pink or purple hair!
Anyway, I have many great memories of that year, e 6 playing in the snow in winter, and playing baseball. At Halloween, I went to a party dressed as Harry Potter. At Thanksgiving, we had a big dinner with a huge turkey.
It was an exciting year, and it was a valuable education for me. Now I u 7 more about American culture. My American friends asked me many questions about life in China, and this made think about my own culture as well.

(23-24八年级下·上海长宁·期末)Ten years ago, I set out to study luck. I wanted to know why some people are always in the right place at the right time, while o 1 always experience ill luck.
Many people volunteered for my research. Over the years I interviewed them, watched their lives and had them take part in my experiments.
I carried out a simple experiment to discover why there were d 2 in their ability to catch chances. I gave both lucky and unlucky people a newspaper and asked them to look through it and tell me how many photographs were i 3 .
I had secretly placed a large message halfway through the newspaper saying, “Tell the researcher you have seen this and win$50.”
This message took up h 4 of the page and was more than two inches high. It was staring at everyone straight in the face, but unlucky people tended to miss it and lucky people tended to catch it.
Unlucky people are just more nervous than lucky people. They are busy looking only for what they need and this s 5 them from noticing the unexpected. So they miss out on chances.
Lucky people tend to be more r 6 and open. They can see everything that is in front of them, rather than just what they are looking for.
My research shows that lucky people live by several rules. Here are some of these rules:
*Be open to new experiences and b 7 your old thought patterns (模式).
*Listen to your gut instincts (直觉)—they are often right.
*See yourself being lucky before an important meeting or phone call.
*Spend a few moments each day remember things that went well.

Dennis Tito is an American rocket scientist. The 82-year-old billionaire plans to take a week-long trip with his wife around the far side of the moon.
Dennis Tito, became the first private space t 1 in 2001, who paid Russia $20 million for a trip to the International Space Station. That ticket would be worth $34 million today.
Tito, then 60, shared, “The pencils on the table started floating in the air, and I could see the blackness of space. It was the greatest moment of my life to achieve a life goal, and I knew then that n 2 could ever beat this.” The rapture (狂喜) will be r 3 as the US billionaire and his wife said they had bought two seats on a future SpaceX passenger flight around the moon.
Tito’s space dreams are still alive and kicking. He plans to take his wife to the moon on a SpaceX Starship flight. “I’ve been thinking about flying to the moon for the last 20 years s 4 I finished my last space flight,” Tito said.
He continued, “We will be able to watch the Earth get smaller and smaller, and the moon get larger and larger. We will be out of this world.”
It’s not known how much they might spend. However, Tito would not discuss the cost of his space trip around the moon. “One of the things I hope to do, we both hope to do, is to inspire people that as we get older, there are so many things we still can do. And flying in space a 5 is a lot easier than a lot of other things. I mean, I’m b 6 the age of skiing, but flying in space is much easier than that,” Tito said.

The anti-bullying film Better Days deepened my understanding of school bullying (校园霸凌) . I used to think school bullying was far from us, but that is not the case. We are seeing an i 1 in school bullying all over the world. These unfortunate incidents are causing harm to many young people.
Many teenagers suffer from school bullying. The reason why we don’t know about their suffering is that many of them don’t dare to speak out about their experiences. Some do speak out, but no one around them is willing to help them got t 2 their tough days. The effect of school bullying on the victim can last a lifetime. It’s time we did something about this problem.
Another reason is that social media makes it much e 3 to be a bully. Bullies today don't have to face the person they’re bullying. They can just post a hurtful comment or an embarrassing photo on Weibo or in a WeChat group chat. Everyone in the class, or even the whole school, will see it. Some may even join in with their own unkind comments to “mob (围攻) ” the victim.
The bully and the “mob” may think it’s fun. However, their actions can d 4 the life of the victim. They can cause depression and anxiety (焦虑). This shouldn’t happen and it doesn’t have to happen. And you can actually stop it.
If you see someone being bullied in your school, or anywhere. don’t be q 5 . Don’t just say to yourself. “It’s not my problem.” If you’re too shy to face the bully yourself, then you should at least be brave enough to report the incident to a teacher as soon as possible. And you should also be willing to stand up for the victim even when others do not.
Last but not least, we should try our best to p 6 school bullying from happening. Perhaps schools can pay more a 7 to students’ mental health since scientists have found bullies are nearly twice as likely to have mental health problems.
I’d like to call on all schools and families to sit up and take notice of school bullying. I sincerely hope all students can have a happy school life.

Everybody has dreams. They can be funny, frightening, exciting or weird. Read the passage and find out more about the world of dreams.
● What are dreams?
Dreams are stories or a series of events that take place in a person’s mind while they are a 1 . Sometimes they are based on everyday experiences and seem very real. Sometimes they are weird and confusing. Experts think you dream around four to six t 2 a night even if you can’t remember most of them in the morning. Scientists don’t really know for sure why we do it. One theory is that sleep is a chance for the brain to process thoughts and feelings — keeping i 3 things in memories and getting rid of the unnecessary ones. Another theory says dreams can help you see things from different points of view and could even help you solve problems.
● How do we dream?
There are two main phases (阶段) of sleep. They are rapid (快速的) eye movement (REM) and non-rapid eye movement. You can dream in e 4 phase but it’s most likely to be during the REM phase, which happens about 90 minutes after you go to sleep.
● What is a 5 for a good night’s sleep
It is a good idea to go to sleep at about the same time each night. It is also necessary to calm down yourself b 6 sleeping. This could be by reading or listening to relaxing music. Try to avoid bright lights and screens, such as phones, tablets or TVs. Make sure the room is not too hot or cold, and if you find you are worrying about something, have a notepad by the bed. You can write down your worry, close the pad and put the thought out of your mind, then deal with it the n 7 day. You could also write down your dreams when you wake up if you can remember them.

Do you sometimes feel like you live in a tiny world where everyone says the things you believe? It is a bit like being in an “echo (回声) chamber (房间)”, where your thoughts r 1 to you without hearing other ideas. With social media, it happens more common.
Think of echo chambers as invisible rooms on the Internet where everyone a 2 with your idea. Think about how people used to sit around a fire, telling stories that made everyone else all nod and smile. Now, we have the Internet where people from around the world share thoughts that make us nod and smile.
Social media platforms are so smart that they even know what we like. They use special t 3 called algorithms (算法) to learn everything from what we click, like, and share online. These algorithms watch what we do on the Internet to show us more information that m 4 our interests and even what our friends like.
However, staying in an echo chamber has its problems. Although they make us feel happy because we’re surrounded by the s 5 views, they actually make us see the world in a very limited way. It’s hard for us to understand others who think differently. We might even feel l 6 and worried, thinking everyone outside our rooms seems so strange.
L 7 , there are ways for us to escape the echo chambers. Start by trying new websites, read various stories, and chat with people who have other views. Always ask where the information comes from, check facts, and stay open-minded. This helps us learn about the big, wide world much better.

People volunteer for many reasons. For many teenagers, they are asked to do volunteer work, because many high schools now ask students to finish some volunteer work hours b 1 they can graduate (毕业). But there are many o 2 reasons why it is a good idea for teenagers to do volunteer work. Volunteering is a great way to find a new interest or a possible job, make friends and have fun.
What kind of volunteer work is good for teenagers? The best way to choose is to sit down and make a list. On their list, teenagers should write down their h 3 and interests, what skills (技能) they have, and how much time they want to use to do volunteer work. To help to decide what to do, they can think about if they would like to work in p 4 or behind the scenes (在幕后), and if they would like to have rich experiences or would like to do one thing.
Where to find volunteer work in your city? There are many ways that can help you find teenager volunteer work in your city. Many cities have a community (社区) volunteer office where you can look for all kinds of one-time or ongoing volunteer work. Most service clubs put information about their n 5 on their websites, or you can always call them to see if they are looking for volunteers. You can a 6 look for suitable volunteer work on www.volunteermatch.org.
Volunteering is a wonderful way for teenagers to become more active in their community, and they can get skills and experience for the future.

Whenever the house gets quiet, Mrs. Smith knows just where to find her 6-year-old daughter Maria: lost in the world of stories.
“I like to read every time of the day,” said Maria, a student at Creel Elementary School in Australia.
Maria’s headmaster, Mrs. White, wants e 1 of her 850 students and their families to learn the love of reading this year. She wants reading at home to become an activity of choice in every family, even during holiday breaks. “I truly realize reading should be an important part of everyone’s life, and n 2 should stop it.” said Mrs. White.
“The aim we want most of all is to help children understand they can enjoy reading, as well as p 3 their skills,” said Hannas, an education researcher. He suggested parents take their children to the library and allow them to pick out books that i 4 them.
Each night, students take home two books to read with their parents or other family members. They have to r 5 the books the next day with a signed note from their parents showing that the books were read, and have passing tests that check how well they understand the books.
“We’re trying to get parents into the h 6 of reading with their kids.” said the headmaster. “Nothing is better than sitting on a sofa with your child and reading and laughing.”
T 7 books, Mrs. Smith, a parent, said she’s able to give her two daughters more experiences than she could.
“I think reading opens all the doors and creates imaginations in children,” she said, “I think if you read well, you can succeed in anything in life.”

Waste sorting is a simple process that requires neither a lot of time nor any special resources. When you throw away trash (废物), do you know which bin it should go in? Have you ever n 1 the differently-colored trash bins on the street or in your neighborhood?
Some of you might not be able to answer this question easily. In fact, it is very important. Not knowing how to sort waste can make it even h 2 to save energy and protect the environment.
If you don’t sort your trash, all of it will go to a landfill (垃圾填埋场) and be m 3 together. These landfills can take up large areas of ground that could have been used for planting trees or crops. The electronic waste can pollute the soil and groundwater (地下水). Other pieces of garbage, like the metal part of a pen, can be used to make other things if they are properly recycled.
With this in mind, many cities in China have been running waste-sorting activities in recent years. For example, Shanghai announced in July 2019 that within three years, all of its residents should sort their waste into f 4 groups: wet, recyclable, harmful and dry.
Many other c 5 , including Shenzhen and Qingdao, plan to use this method to sort their waste. Now that you know this, perhaps you can do your part to protect the environment and encourage others to sort their trash.
Waste sorting is also a major problem around the world. Different countries are using different methods to sort their trash. Japan is l 6 the world in waste sorting. It is a very important part of Japanese life and Japanese people will expect foreigners to follow their belief.

(24-25八年级下·上海黄浦·期末模拟)Night after night, she came into my bedroom. She would push my long hair out of the way, then kiss my forehead.
I don’t remember when it first started annoying (惹恼) me—her hands pushing my hair that way. But it did annoy me, for they felt rough a 1 my young skin. Finally, one night, I shouted out at her, “Don’t do that any more—your hands are too rough!” She didn’t say anything in reply. But n 2 again did my mother come in my room with the expression of her love.
From time to time, with the passing years, my thoughts r 3 to that night. By then I missed my mother’s hands, missed her goodnight kiss on my forehead. Sometimes the picture seemed very c 4 , sometimes far away. But always it was in my mind.
Well, the years have passed, and I’m not a little girl any more. Mom is in her mid-seventies, and those hands I once thought to be so rough are still doing things for me and my family. She has been our d 5 , reaching into a medicine box for something to calm a young girl’s stomach. She has been our cook, cooking the best food in the world.
Now, my own children are grown and gone. Mom no longer has Dad, and on special days, I spend the night with her. On Thanksgiving Eve, in the bedroom of my youth, a f 6 hand gently ran across my face to brush the hair from my forehead.
In my m 7 , for a thousand times, I recalled my young voice, “Don’t do that anymore—your hands are too rough!” Catching Mom’s hand, I told her how sorry I was for that night. But Mom didn’t know what I was talking about. She had forgotten a long time ago.

When was the last time you left home without your mobile phone? Can you i 1 yourself living a month, or even a year without checking your mobile phone?
As a busy modern person with lots of s 2 connections, plans and responsibilities, I just can’t afford to not be in touch with the rest of the world. Staying connected to other people is a big part of my life. However, sometimes it can be bothersome (恼人的).
One day I was terribly tired out. I tried turning notifications (通知) off. But the fear of missing out something i 3 made me check the phone more often than before. So, I stopped using my phone.
Well, it was not simple at all. For the first couple of days, I had a big fear that all of my friends would soon f 4 about me. When I had a free moment, the worries mixed with boredom kept bothering me.
However, after three weeks without a mobile phone, I started noticing changes. I didn’t focus on continuing the experiment, but in fact reorganizing some of my h 5 . I gave up what I used to do and started a new lifestyle.
I discovered that the world is a beautiful place. Before, I would look at it through my camera mostly: take a photo, post it, get some likes. Now, I saw beautiful people walking around and I sensed the seasons change. I could understand the actual beauty of the world, and I didn’t need anyone else to prove the v 6 of this beauty through likes or shares.
Now, as 100 days have passed, I can say that the experiment was w 7 it. I am planning to stay away from my phone for as long as possible.

My name Is Brad Li. I’m here today to tell you about my experience as an exchange student in the United States last year.
I must admit that at first America was a big culture shock for me. Many things were s 1 to me: the language, the food and even the school.
I stayed with a host family in a small town. My host parents, Mr and Mrs Hurst, were very kind. They o 2 a lot of activities for me in my spare time so that I wouldn’t miss home or feel lonely.
However, to a certain degree, life in the US was hard to get used to. My main problem was with the language. I failed to know clearly in the first few weeks because everyone spoke so fast. T 3 I soon managed to get used to it, I still had problems because they used a lot of idioms. For example, they often say they are “under the weather” when they are ill. Their everyday English is very different from what we learn in China.
Another d 4 was the food. My host family always had bread, potatoes and salad for meals. I really missed the dumplings, rice and delicious dishes from home.
School was a big shock too. They do not require students to wear uniforms, so students can wear a 5 anything what they like. Some students have interesting hairstyles as well. Some students even have pink or purple hair!
Anyway, I have many great memories of that year, e 6 playing in the snow in winter, and playing baseball. At Halloween, I went to a party dressed as Harry Potter. At Thanksgiving, we had a big dinner with a huge turkey.
It was an exciting year, and it was a valuable education for me. Now I u 7 more about American culture. My American friends asked me many questions about life in China, and this made think about my own culture as well.

(23-24八年级下·上海长宁·期末)Ten years ago, I set out to study luck. I wanted to know why some people are always in the right place at the right time, while o 1 always experience ill luck.
Many people volunteered for my research. Over the years I interviewed them, watched their lives and had them take part in my experiments.
I carried out a simple experiment to discover why there were d 2 in their ability to catch chances. I gave both lucky and unlucky people a newspaper and asked them to look through it and tell me how many photographs were i 3 .
I had secretly placed a large message halfway through the newspaper saying, “Tell the researcher you have seen this and win$50.”
This message took up h 4 of the page and was more than two inches high. It was staring at everyone straight in the face, but unlucky people tended to miss it and lucky people tended to catch it.
Unlucky people are just more nervous than lucky people. They are busy looking only for what they need and this s 5 them from noticing the unexpected. So they miss out on chances.
Lucky people tend to be more r 6 and open. They can see everything that is in front of them, rather than just what they are looking for.
My research shows that lucky people live by several rules. Here are some of these rules:
*Be open to new experiences and b 7 your old thought patterns (模式).
*Listen to your gut instincts (直觉)—they are often right.
*See yourself being lucky before an important meeting or phone call.
*Spend a few moments each day remember things that went well.
