Most people will talk about their names, ages and family. But we should 1 that these are just our basic details. 2 introduce ourselves better, we should first get to know ourselves. This is the main 3 that I want to discuss today. Learning about our own personalities (性格) and 4 is very important. If we don’t know how to learn about our personalities and values, we can think about how we solve problems 5 then we will find the answer. Our ways of 6 problems and our actions can reflect (反映) our personalities and values. If we learn from our mistakes instead of avoiding them, I’m sure we’re active and 7 people. If we always take our friends’ 8 into consideration when dealing with (处理) our friendships, then we are kind and understanding people. Therefore, it is a nice way to get to know ourselves through our experiences. However, we should remember not to be misled (被误导) by others’ opinions. Some people may choose to give up being themselves in order to 9 others. We need to live a life according to our own ideas, and then we can 10 find out who we are.

So she was 1 happy. She always stayed by herself and didn’t talk to 2 . One day, her mother gave her a beautiful hair clip (发夹). When she wore it, she looked 3 than before. She decided to go to school with the beautiful hair clip. On her way to 4 , she found that most of her schoolmates said “hello” to her, but they never did this before. She thought that it was 5 the beautiful hair clip. She was so happy about all 6 the wonderful things. 7 all her classmates wanted to know what happened to her, she didn’t want to tell them about her hair clip.   When she went back home, her mother asked her, “Did you know you 8 your hair clip at home? I 9 it by the door this morning.” She was surprised to 10 that. She understood that she didn’t wear the hair clip to school. It’s not important what we wear or how we look.

Last year, Monica’s school held a charity marathon (慈善马拉松) to 1 money for some poor students in need. It was so 2 that almost all students wanted to take part in it. So did Monica. At the beginning of the marathon, all the other runners ran faster than her, which made Monica 3 . Though she tried her best to catch up with them, she still fell behind! She even wanted to 4 running, but she knew she couldn’t! This was running for love! Suddenly, she heard a loud 5 , “Run at your own best speed!” She lifted her head and found it came from her father. “Run at my own best speed,” Monica thought for a while. Then she 6 running again. This time, she paid no attention to other 7 . Over time, Monica ran more easily and more 8 . After about two hours, Monica finally completed the marathon, and even won second place!

The books 1 me to a wonderful world. The more I read, the more I wanted to know. However, my parents 2 afford so many books. I had to solve the problem myself. There was a book shop near my home. One day I walked into 3 shop and picked up a book. I didn’t know whether 4 there without buying any books. 5 I wasn’t noticed, I just read a few pages and then put it back. Luckily, no one noticed me. After that,  I went there to read every day. Several days later, while I was reading, the owner came up and asked, “You like reading?” I looked down and replied 6 , “Yes.” “Don’t worry,” he said with a smile. “You may read books here 7 you help me clean the shop.” I felt quite surprised. “Really? It’s so kind of you!” I was very happy that I would be allowed to read there. From then on, I spent a little time 8 the shop. After that, I quietly read there. That way, I read lots of books. I became one of 9 writers in our school. I even won some prizes in writing. Now studying in high school, I can borrow books 10 the library. My hobby of reading is kept.

And if the teacher didn’t tell me where to sit, I always 1 to sit at the back of the classroom. All this changed after I joined a sports team. It began when a teacher suggested that I join the basketball team. At first I thought it was a crazy idea because I didn’t have a good sense of balance, and I didn’t have the 2 to keep up with the others in the team and they would laugh at me. But because the teacher kept insisting on my “ 3 for it”, I decided to give it a try. Getting up the 4 to try was only half of it! When I first started 5 the practice courses, I didn’t even know the rules of the game. Sometimes I’d get confused (迷惑的) and take a shot in the wrong direction—which made me feel really silly. 6 , I wasn’t the only one “new” at the game, so I decided to learn the game, do my best at each practice course, and not be too hard on myself for the things I didn’t know. I practised and practised. Soon I knew the 7 and the “moves”. Being part of a team was not so difficult. Very soon the exciting part for me was WINNING, 8 I didn’t have enough confidence. With time, I learned how to play and made friends. I never had so much fun! With more self-confidence comes more praise from teachers and classmates. I have gone from “ 9 ” in the back of the classroom and not wanting to call attention to myself, 10 raising my hand—even when I sometimes wasn’t 100 percent sure I had the right answer.

A friendly voice can make the conversation more comfortable. You should learn to manage your facial 2 and avoid having a serious expression on your face when you are with others. A 3 smile can make others feel welcome. It’s like opening the door to friendship. If you 4 that you don’t understand what others are saying, you can ask them to say it again in a nice way. Don’t be shy. Remember not to have a 5 mind. Don’t always refute (反驳) their points. Just stay quiet and listen to them. 6 we talk to people, being kind is really important. For example, if your 7 is carrying heavy things, you can offer to help and say “Let me give you a hand.” Your words and 8 can really comfort him or her and make your neighbourhood better.

The vegetables hated the tree because they thought the tree didn’t leave them enough 2 by covering them with its thick leaves, while the tree thought that the vegetables drank nearly all the water before it could reach him. The situation became worse and worse. One day, the vegetables decided to 3 all the water in the ground so that the tree would dry up. The tree fought back by refusing to offer the vegetables shade (树荫). Soon they both began to dry up under the hot sun. Neither of them expected that the gardener would stop watering his vegetable field because he thought it was 4 to save the vegetables. When the gardener did that, the tree and the vegetables really felt how 5 they were. There seemed to be no way to solve the problem. Then a small pumpkin decided to do something to 6 the situation. The small pumpkin did all he could to grow 7 there was little water and it was too hot. Finally, the gardener 8 the growing pumpkin among the dying vegetables, 9 he started to water the field again.

One late autumn evening, after their work was done, Simon said to his wife, "Victor got married last month. He has many bills to 3 . I think I will put a bag of rice in his barn谷仓." "Oh, that's a good idea," said his wife. "But please don't tell him," said Simon, "If he knows I put the rice there, he will 4 take it.” So, late that night Simon took a bag of rice to Victor's barn. The next day, while looking at his own barn, he was surprised. "I took a bag of rice to Victor's house last night, 5 I still have the same number of bags in my barn 6 did that happen?" Simon decided to take 7 bag of rice to his brother's barn that night. But the next morning, he found the same number of bags in his barn again! "This is very strange," he thought. That night he tried again. He carried a large bag of rice on his shoulder, and went out to his younger brother's house. In the bright moonlight, he could see someone 8 down the road. He was carrying something on his shoulder as well. "Younger Brother!" Simon cried when he came near the man , "What are you doing?"

It makes our lives easier and more interesting. Last month, I visited a really big and interesting science 1 . There were lots of cool things at the fair. Among all of them, the computers 2 caught my eye. They looked so modern and amazing! Computers are truly 3 machines. They are not too big, 4 we can put them on our desks. We can do many things on them. For example, we can study on computers. We can 105 interesting e-books from the internet to read. These e-books are full of colourful pictures and fun stories.

In ancient China, earthquakes happened often. 4 , people didn’t know how to deal with the problem. When Zhang Heng saw that many people were hurt, he decided to 5 something to help people predict (预测) the disaster. He spent lots of time researching earthquakes. He carefully studied and 6 historical records of earthquake events, and finally he developed the Houfeng Seismograph. Although the seismograph wasn’t 7 at first, it brought great help to people’s lives. It helped people detect (发现) earthquakes early. The story of Zhang Heng not only shows the importance of creativity, but also has 8 many scientists to work hard for science. Zhang Heng’s deep respect for nature and truth in science was one of his important 9 . Today, if we visit the museum, we need to buy a 10 to see a copy of the Houfeng Seismograph and learn about this great invention and other inventions.

Now, she has got a doctor’s degree in biology and become a famous 4 researcher. Betty has made it partly because she is curious about everything. This is a very 5 quality for a scientist. Another 6 is that she is a creative thinker. “After all, science is all about problem-solving,” Betty said. Betty thinks the best part of her research is trying out an idea to see if it will work. Her heart is filled with joy when her idea is proved right and 7 by other scientists. But when things don’t go 8 as she plans, she feels no disappointment. She says mistakes may 9 a new idea.

Firefighters put out the fire finally, but it got Reshma thinking—when there is 3 one? “I wanted to find a way to predict (预测) fire s before they happen,” says Reshma. “I hoped this could save lives, money and the 4 .” She collected information about the weather and climate from the 5 station. Then, she put together the weather data (数据), such as temperature, wind speed and humidity (湿度), with information about human activities. With the data Reshma made an Al system that could predict forest fires with almost 90% accuracy (准确度)! Amazingly, Reshma’s AI system is now being used by firefighters in California! 6 her AI system, they 7 predict where and when forest fires will break out. They can 8 the scene of the fire more quickly, save more lives and cut down on toxic (有毒的) smoke that the fire makes. Because of the AI system, Reshma 9 the Children’s Climate Prize 2021 and £8,000. “I think making the system into an app would be the next step,” Reshma says 10 . “Then people all over the world would be able to use it.” 1．A．free B．comfortable C．dangerous D．difficult 2．A．glasses B．coat C．cap D．mask 3．A．another B．other C．the other D．others 4．A．city B．environment C．mountain D．river 5．A．police B．TV C．railway D．weather 6．A．For B．In C．By D．With 7．A．are used to B．need to C．are able to D．agree to 8．A．reach B．arrive C．get D．go 9．A．caught B．won C．led D．made 10．A．sadly B．luckily C．excitedly D．patiently Passage 5 Many of the most useful things around us were invented by mistake, such as the Velcro TM strip (维可牢尼龙搭扣), potato chips and tea which were all accidents. The Velcro TM strip was 1 in Switzerland by a mountaineer called George de Mestral, and one day in 1948, when he took his dog for a walk, the dog picked up many burrs (芒). George tried to pull them out but didn’t succeed. When he got home, he put one of the burrs under his microscope and saw that it was covered in tiny hooks (钩) which made it so 2 to remove the burrs from his dog. This gave him the 3 , and soon Velcro TM strip was born. The potato chip was invented in 1853 by George Crum, a 4 who worked in a restaurant in America. One day, a customer in the restaurant sent back his plate of fried potatoes because they were cut too 5 . George was so angry that he cut a potato into very thin slices and fried them. Then he put lots of salt on them. He 6 that the customer would hate them, but the customer loved them and asked for more. The most 7 drink in the world, after water of course, is tea. It’s another common thing that was invented 8 . It was invented in China around 5,000 years ago by a Chinese emperor called Shen Nong. The emperor was boiling water to drink over an open fire when some leaves fell into the water from a nearby plant. The emperor 9 that the leaves in the water produced a pleasant smell.

What other 161 do you know about it? Do you know there are three “Londons”? Now I’m going to 162 some information about them with you. One is the City of London. As the oldest part of London, it has a long 163 . It’s the country’s financial (金融的) center. The city is 164 in the day. Lots of people work there. But at night the City is a different place. Most people who work there don’t live there. So it is 165 at night. Another is the West End with lots of popular shops and hotels. It’s the 166 part of London. There are great theaters, cinemas, museums, long streets of fine shops and parks. So many people around the world 167 the West End every year. They can see many famous 168 such as the Houses of Parliament and the Buckingham Palace (白金汉宫). Whitehall is also in the West End. It’s a very 169 street.
