Mia:(eyes sparkling)Oh!What if we go to the beach?Or the mountains?Or both!We could
wake up by the sea,then chase the sunset in the hills!
Liam:That's...a six-hour drive between them.
Mia:(laughs)So?Imagine the photos!We can sleep in the car-adventure vibes!
Nora:We need to book rooms,Mia.And decide one place.
Mia:(pouting,then smiling again)Fine...but what about a lake with colorful boats?Or a village
festival?I heard there's one this weekend-fireworks,music,street food!
Liam:You just changed the plan three times in one minute.
Mia:(grinning)That's because I can see all of them in my head!Don't you feel it?The air,the
music...Oh,I'm so excited already!
Nora:(sighs)You're impossible to plan with

your plans.You'll thank me later.

Dialogue 2:Friends Planning a Science Project
Emma:Okay,so we need to decide what our science project will be about.Any ideas?
Liam:Well,I was thinking something with plants.Like,how sunlight affects growth.It's simple,
but we can get some clear results.
Sophia:That could work,but everyone does the plant thing.Maybe we can try something more
unusual?
Emma:Like what?
Sophia:Maybe something with magnets or electricity.We could test how different metals affect
a magnet's strength.
Liam:Hmm...electricity sounds cool,but it might be tricky to measure properly.I don't want to
risk it if it doesn't work at all.
Emma:Yeah,we have only two weeks.Plants might actually be easier to manage.But I see
Sophia's point,it might be too ordinary.
Sophia:We could do a hybrid.Start with plants but also test how different liquids affect growth,
like water,soda,juice,things we drink every day.
Liam:Oh,that's smart!It's still plants,but it's more interesting than just sunlight
Emma:I like that.We can measure growth each day,take photos,and even chart the differences.
That'll look really good for the presentation.
Sophia:Exactly.And we can add a fun experiment where we see if the liquid's temperature
changes growth speed:cold vs.room temperature water.
Liam:Yes!That adds a second variable,so our project looks more complex.But we need to keep
careful notes,or it'll get messy.
Emma:Agreed.Let's make a plan tonight.Assign who brings what materials,who does the daily
measurements,and who documents everything.
Sophia:I can handle the daily photos and notes.Liam,maybe you can manage the liquids and
measurement part?
Liam:Sure,I can do that.Emma,you can organize the chart and presentation slides?
Emma:Deal.Let's meet tomorrow after school and start setting up.This is going to be fun,but
we need to stay organized.
Sophia:Totally.And we can take some short videos too.It'll make our presentation way more
engaging.
Liam:Good idea.Okay,I feel like we finally have a solid plan.I'm actually excited to start this.
Emma:Me too.Hopefully,our project wins the science fair!
Sophia:With teamwork like this,I think we will have a real shot.
18.What concern does Liam express about Sophia's idea involving electricity?
A.It would be unsafe to work with.
5/19

Why Read Detective Stories
Detective stories are not just fun-they make you think.Every story is like a puzzle waiting
to be 31.When you read one,you become part of the mystery.You look for 32
ask questions,and try to 33 who did it before the detective does.That's exciting
But detective stories do more than keep you 34.They help your brain grow
35
You learn to notice small details,think 36,and connect ideas.These are the
same skills that good detectives and smart students use every day.
Reading mysteries also teaches 37.You can't rush to the answer.You have to read
slowly,pay attention,and remember little things that might matter later.In real life,that helps
you focus better at school and understand people around you.
And the best part?The feeling when you 38 solve the case!When all the clues fit
9/19
together and you say,"I knew it!"-That's pure satisfaction.It feels great because you used
your brain to figure it out.
So if you enjoy adventure,39
and smart thinking,try reading detective stories.
Whether it's 40,Nancy Drew,or any other mystery heroes,you'll have fun,and you'll
become a better thinker too.Detective stories don't just tell great tales,they help you grow
curious,clever,and confident.
Then,Leo shows this to Lucas,please read carefully.It's very important for a good
detective.
The Five Powers of a True Detective
Every good detective has five invisible tools-not in a briefcase,but inside the mind.
These tools are observation,logical reasoning,memory recall,communication,and empathy.
Without them,even the best magnifying glass is useless.
A detective's first weapon is observation-the art of seeing what others miss.To a
detective,every object tells a story.A single muddy footprint,a half-closed window,or a cup still
warm can whisper a clue.Detectives train their eyes and minds to notice tiny changes:a moved
chair,a missing pen,a wrinkle on someone's sleeve.The smallest detail can unlock the biggest
mystery.
Then comes logical reasoning-the power to connect clues like pieces of a puzzle.A
detective asks,"If this happened,then what must be true?"Step by step,they remove what's
impossible until only the truth remains.Logic turns random facts into a clear line of thinking-
the bridge between mystery and solution.
But observation and logic mean little without memory recall.Detectives must remember
faces,times,voices,and earlier clues that seemed unimportant.The best detectives replay events
in their minds like a movie,checking if anything has changed.Sometimes,a single remembered
word or colour brings the entire case into focus.
The fourth ability is conmnnmnication.A detective needs to talk,but also to listen.When
questioning suspects or witnesses,a harsh tone can shut people down,but calm and respectful
questions open doors.Communication also means knowing what to ask and when to stay silent.
The truth often hides between words.
Finally,and most surprisingly,there is empathy.A detective must understand not only what
happened but why.Empathy helps them feel what others feel:fear,guilt,sadness,or relief.It's
what turns a cold investigator into a wise human being.A detective who can see the world
through another's eyes can sense when someone is lying or when they simply need understanding
Together,these five powers-observation,reasoning,memory,communication,and
empathy,work like the gears of a watch.Each one moves the others.Remove one,and the
detective's mind slows down.But when all five work in harmony,even the darkest mystery can
be solved.
Let's check if you get them,please choose the right answer:
41.According to the above,what is the main purpose of observation?
A.To remember people's names.
B.To see what others don't notice.
