Life is not about the smartest person or the strongest person, or even the richest person. However, life is about having the mind in your heart “Never Give Up”, even when you feel that giving up is the only choice. The world is waiting on your gifts. Life won’t be the s 1 without you. You are important to this world and believe it or not, someone is waiting for you to enrich their lives. You are too important to the world to just give up. What if you win. You may feel that life is challenging you from time to time and you can’t take it anymore. You may want to give up right now. But here is a thought, what will h 2 if you overcome the difficulties? Focus (集中) on the f 3 . When an Olympic runner is in a race, he or she is focusing on one thing—the finishing line. You have to focus on the big picture—not just where you are right now. Focus in where you want to be. Make an agreement with your mind and your mouth. Life isn’t crystal stair. One of my favourite poems is called “Crystal Stair” written by Langston Hughes. In that poem, a mother tells her son that life is h 4 . You will meet rocks and hard places, but the e 5 is success to those who stand their ground and ride the course. There is a rainbow after every storm.Whatever you are facing, you can make it through. There is a rainbow on the o 6 side of your situation. Stay strong, stay focused and never give up. 【答案】1．(s)ame 2．(h)appen 3．(f)uture 4．(h)ard 5．(e)nd 6．(o)ther 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了要勇敢面对生活中的挑战，无论遇到什么困难，都不要放弃。 1．句意：没有你的生活是不一样的。根据第一段最后一句“The world is waiting on your gifts.”和首字母提示可知，没有你生活就不一样，该空应填“same”即“相同的”。故填(s)ame。 2．句意：但是这儿有一个想法，如果你克服了困难，会发生什么事情呢？根据前句“But here is a thought…if you overcome the difficulties?”结合首字母可知，假设克服了困难，会发生什么，该空应填“happen”即“发生”，will后接动词原形。故填(h)appen。 3．句意：专注于未来。根据下文“You have to focus on the big picture—not just where you are right now.

We always dream of doing something great so that we can change the world. For example, we hate p 3 , so we try to find new energy to keep the e 4 clean, but in our lives we still throw rubbish c 5 . Also, we are not satisfied with the traffic, so we plan to build more highways to stop it. In fact, it is because that many people don’t f 6 the traffic rules. Now, lots of students always think their homework is very difficult and they find it hard to pass exams. In their e 7 the problems on papers are too difficult. But actually, the real r 8 is that they don’t study hard. They never think about changing their attitudes (态度) t 9 study or working hard on their lessons. In my opinion, before we decide to change the world, we should change ourselves first. As common people, it is not easy for us to change the world, but we can easily give up our bad habits, such as littering, breaking traffic rules and always c 10 about how difficult the exam is.

However, it seems that many people don’t know the importance of p 1 their eyes. Nowadays, many people live a busy life and they have l 2 time to take care of their “windows”. Even when the eyes have something w 3 , telling their owners that they are dry and uncomfortable, these people may just not care about them, and go on with their work. Study takes students a lot of time and they don’t have time to take care of their eyes, either. What’s worse, some of them often do eye exercises c 4 . We all know that eyes work like a camera. When we use a camera to take photos, we adjust (调节) the focus (焦距) to make our photos become c 5 . In our eyes, there are also lenses (晶状体) like cameras. But these lenses can’t collect light on their o 6 . They need the ciliary muscles (睫状肌) to adjust the lenses’ shape. When you work with your eyes too long, the ciliary muscles will feel t 7 . As a result, they won’t be able to help the lenses w 8 properly and we won’t be able to see things clearly. If we often use our eyes too much, we will likely get different eye i 9 , such as shortsighted. Many students have got such eye problems. They spend so much time doing their homework or playing computers that their ciliary muscles can’t get e 10 rest. As a result, more and more teenagers have to wear glasses. Let’s take good care of our eyes now. 【答案】 1．(p)rotecting 2．(l)ittle 3．(w)rong 4．(c)arelessly 5．(c)lear 6．(o)wn 7．(t)ired 8．(w)ork 9．(i)llnesses 10．(e)nough 【导语】本文主要讲述了眼睛对我们的重要性以及许多人忽视保护眼睛的现状。 1．句意：然而，似乎很多人不知道保护眼睛的重要性。结合首字母提示和“the importance of...their eyes”可知，此处表示“保护眼睛的重要性”，动词protect意为“保护”，空前的of是介词，其后接动词-ing形式，所以空处应填protect的动词-ing形式protecting。故填(p)rotecting。 2．句意：现在，许多人过着忙碌的生活，他们几乎没有时间照顾他们的“窗户”。结合首字母提示和“many people live a busy life”可推知，此处表示“几乎没有时间”，空后的time是不可数名词，所以此处应用little表示“几乎没有”。故填(l)ittle。 3．句意：即使眼睛有问题，告诉它们的主人它们很干，不舒服，这些人也可能不在乎它们，继续工作。根据首字母提示和“telling their owners that they are dry and uncomfortable”可推知，此处表示“眼睛出了问题”，something wrong意为“出了问题”。故填(w)rong。 4．句意：更糟糕的是，他们中的一些人经常马虎地做眼保健操。结合首字母提示和“What’s worse, some of them often do eye exercises...”可知，此处表示“马虎地做眼保健操”，所以空处应填副词carelessly“马虎地”，修饰动词do。故填(c)arelessly。 5．句意：当我们用相机拍照时，我们调整焦距使照片变得清晰。结合首字母提示和“we adjust (调节) the focus (焦距) to make our photos become...”可知，此处表示“调整焦距使照片变得清晰”，所以空处应填形容词clear“清晰的”，作表语。故填(c)lear。 6．句意：但是这些晶状体不能自己收集光线。结合首字母提示和空前的on their可知，本题考查短语on one’s own“独自地，靠自己地”。故填(o)wn。 7．句意：用眼工作时间过长，睫状肌会感到疲劳。结合首字母提示和“When you work with your eyes too long”可推知，此处表示“感到疲劳”，形容词tired“疲劳的”符合语境。故填(t)ired。 8．句意：因此，它们将无法帮助晶状体正常工作，我们将无法看清事物。结合首字母提示和“we won’t be able to see things clearly”可推知，此处表示“无法帮助晶状体正常工作”，动词work意为“工作”，结合短语help sb. do sth.“帮助某人做某事”可知，空处应填work的原形。故填(w)ork。 9．句意：如果我们经常过度使用我们的眼睛，我们可能会患不同的眼病，如近视。结合首字母提示和“such as shortsighted”可推知，此处表示“眼病”，名词illness意为“疾病”，结合空前的different可知，空处应填illness的复数形式illnesses。故填(i)llnesses。 10．句意：他们花太多时间做作业或玩电脑，以至于睫状肌得不到足够的休息。结合首字母提示和“They spend so much time doing their homework or playing computers”可推知，此处表示“得不到足够的休息”，形容词enough“足够的”符合语境。故填(e)nough。 首字母填空 Now lots of parents will buy everything that their children want to have.

I l 1 my job and my project, all of which I loved. Now, the sadness is still there, but meanwhile I feel huge e 2 over following a long-time dream of mine: writing a memoir (回忆录). In the margins (间隙) of time, while working full time, I worked slowly on the b 3 of a book: a name, an outline, and a title for the first chapter. I tried to f 4 some writing time. Sometimes I would write for a free half hour in the morning before everything s 5 . It’s true that I don’t have any income now and no one knows what will happen next. But it is a 6 a fact that I’m living my actual dream. Now I wake up with a feeling of thrill (兴奋) in my chest every day, and I think: I get to write today. Though all this happened s 7 , not up to my plan. I feel lucky that I have this life now. And yes, it’s a long road to publishing a book. Yes, I don’t know if I’ll ever make m 8 from this. As I write, I read Martha Beck’s book. In a section called “The Power of One-Degree Turns (转向)”, she writes. “Positive changes happen more quickly when we do it in s 9 steps, not in great leaps (跳跃). Every day, you make many tiny decisions about your time, every one of which is a chance to turn towards the life you really w 10 .” Looking back, I see that all my writing in the margins of time was my way of making steps to this dream. I can’t wait to continue working on this and, eventually, share it with the world. 【答案】 1．(l)ost 2．(e)xcitement 3．(b)eginning 4．(f)ind 5．(s)tarted 6．(a)lso 7．(s)uddenly 8．(m)oney 9．(s)mall 10．(w)ant 【导语】本文主要讲述作者在失去工作和项目后，开始追求长期梦想——写回忆录的心路历程。 1．句意：我失去了我的工作和我的项目，所有我热爱的东西。根据首字母提示和下文“the sadness is still there”可推知，作者失去了工作。动词lose“失去”符合语境，此处表示过去发生的动作，应用一般过去时，所以空处应填lose的过去式lost。故填(l)ost。 2．句意：现在，悲伤仍然存在，但同时我为实现我长久以来的梦想感到非常兴奋：写一本回忆录。根据首字母提示和“following a long-time dream of mine”可推知，作者因为能够实现长久以来的梦想而感到非常兴奋。空前的huge是形容词，其后接名词，所以空处应填名词excitement表示“兴奋”。故填(e)xcitement。 3．句意：在时间的缝隙里，我一边全职工作，一边缓慢推进一本书的开端：构思书名、拟定大纲，并为第一章起好标题。根据首字母提示和“a name, an outline, and a title for the first chapter”可知，这是一本书的开端。名词beginning“开端”符合语境。故填(b)eginning。 4．句意：我尽量找到一些写作时间。根据首字母提示和“Sometimes I would write for a free half hour in the morning”可推知，作者努力找时间写作，动词find“找到”符合语境，空前的to是动词不定式符号，其后接动词原形。故填(f)ind。 5．句意：有时候，在一切开始之前，我会在早上自由写作半个小时。根据首字母提示和“Sometimes I would write for a free half hour in the morning before everything...”可知，有时作者在开始一天的工作之前会先写作。动词start“开始”符合语境，此处表示过去发生的动作，应用一般过去时，所以空处应填start的过去式started。故填(s)tarted。 6．句意：但这也是事实，我正在实现我真正的梦想。根据首字母提示和“It’s true that I don’t have any income now and no one knows what will happen next. But it is...a fact that I’m living my actual dream.”可知，作者现在没有任何收入是事实，但是作者正在实现梦想也是事实。副词also“也”符合语境。故填(a)lso。 7．句意：虽然这一切发生得很突然，不符合我的计划。根据首字母提示和“not up to my plan”可知，这一切发生得很突然，不符合作者的计划。副词suddenly“突然”符合语境，在此处修饰动词happened。故填(s)uddenly。 8．句意：是的，我不知道我是否能从中赚钱。根据首字母和上文“I get to write today”可知，作者不知道是否能靠写作赚钱。make money“赚钱”。故填(m)oney。 9．句意：当我们用小步而非大跃进来改变时，积极变化更快发生。根据首字母提示和“great leaps”可知，空处应填形容词small“小的”，small steps与great leaps形成对比。故填(s)mall。 10．句意：每天，你都要对自己的时间做出许多微小的决定，每一个决定都是一个转向你真正想要的生活的机会。根据首字母提示和“the life you really...”可知，此处指“你真正想要的生活”。动词want“想要”符合语境，结合“every one of which is a chance...”可知，时态是一般现在时，主语you要与动词原形连用。故填(w)ant。 My classmates often ask me how I feel about being a top student.

Life is not about the smartest person or the strongest person, or even the richest person. However, life is about having the mind in your heart “Never Give Up”, even when you feel that giving up is the only choice. The world is waiting on your gifts. Life won’t be the s 1 without you. You are important to this world and believe it or not, someone is waiting for you to enrich their lives. You are too important to the world to just give up. What if you win. You may feel that life is challenging you from time to time and you can’t take it anymore. You may want to give up right now. But here is a thought, what will h 2 if you overcome the difficulties? Focus (集中) on the f 3 . When an Olympic runner is in a race, he or she is focusing on one thing—the finishing line. You have to focus on the big picture—not just where you are right now. Focus in where you want to be. Make an agreement with your mind and your mouth. Life isn’t crystal stair. One of my favourite poems is called “Crystal Stair” written by Langston Hughes. In that poem, a mother tells her son that life is h 4 . You will meet rocks and hard places, but the e 5 is success to those who stand their ground and ride the course. There is a rainbow after every storm.Whatever you are facing, you can make it through. There is a rainbow on the o 6 side of your situation. Stay strong, stay focused and never give up. 根据短文内容及所给首字母提示写出所缺单词，使短文意思完整，每空一词。 Lev Tolstory (列夫·托尔斯泰), the famous R 1 writer once said, “Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing h 2 .” He was right. We always dream of doing something great so that we can change the world. For example, we hate p 3 , so we try to find new energy to keep the e 4 clean, but in our lives we still throw rubbish c 5 . Also, we are not satisfied with the traffic, so we plan to build more highways to stop it. In fact, it is because that many people don’t f 6 the traffic rules. Now, lots of students always think their homework is very difficult and they find it hard to pass exams. In their e 7 the problems on papers are too difficult. But actually, the real r 8 is that they don’t study hard. They never think about changing their attitudes (态度) t 9 study or working hard on their lessons. In my opinion, before we decide to change the world, we should change ourselves first. As common people, it is not easy for us to change the world, but we can easily give up our bad habits, such as littering, breaking traffic rules and always c 10 about how difficult the exam is. If we can do that, we’ll be strong enough to change the world some day and make it! I still remember the first day I met Jane. When she w 1 into the classroom, all the students were very s 2 because there was a big red birthmark on her face. Jane didn’t care at all a 3 some bad boys laughed at her. Instead, she was always smiling. I wanted to know why Jane could always be so happy. So one day, I went to her and asked if she knew there was a red b 4 on her face. She replied that of course she knew. Whenever she looked in the m 5 , she could see it. “Then how can you live h 6 all the time? Don’t you think the mark m 7 you strange?” I asked. “No, actually, the mark makes me special. I always tell m 8 that I have no way to decide what I look like, b 9 I can decide what I want to be. I’m much luckier than those that can’t walk or run. At least I’m a healthy person,” Jane answered with a smile. Jane’s words opened a new world for me. At that moment, I understood the world b 10 than before. If the world is looked from a very bright way, some bad things will be good gifts. 综合填空。 Friends are important in our life, because no one w 1 to be lonely. However, some people have difficulty in m 2 friends and they often feel lonely. What’s the reason (原因) behind that? Some scientists from Chicago University say, the reason is that this kind of people have brains (大脑) d 3 from common people. And they often feel unsafe w 4 they meet strangers. Does that mean they have no way to change? No, don’t w 5 . Scientists of this study have thought up ways to h 6 these people solve this problem. They provided four steps (步骤) for getting out of loneliness. The first step is to accept (接受) others’ invitations (邀请) although you don’t want to go. “It’s not enough for people just to stay in touch with others online. That’s b 7 most people don’t show their true selves there,” said Doctor Cacioppo, one of this study’s scientists. Another step is to get an action plan. As “actions speak louder than w 8 ”, people need to be active to communicate with others. They also need to meet people with the s 9 interests. Also, they should try to expect the best from each activity. Anyway, tomorrow is a 10 day. Who knows what good things are waiting for us? 根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词，使短文意思完整。每空限填一词。 Friends are important in our life, because no one w 1 to be lonely.

However, it seems that many people don’t know the importance of p 1 their eyes. Nowadays, many people live a busy life and they have l 2 time to take care of their “windows”. Even when the eyes have something w 3 , telling their owners that they are dry and uncomfortable, these people may just not care about them, and go on with their work. Study takes students a lot of time and they don’t have time to take care of their eyes, either. What’s worse, some of them often do eye exercises c 4 . We all know that eyes work like a camera. When we use a camera to take photos, we adjust (调节) the focus (焦距) to make our photos become c 5 . In our eyes, there are also lenses (晶状体) like cameras. But these lenses can’t collect light on their o 6 . They need the ciliary muscles (睫状肌) to adjust the lenses’ shape. When you work with your eyes too long, the ciliary muscles will feel t 7 . As a result, they won’t be able to help the lenses w 8 properly and we won’t be able to see things clearly. If we often use our eyes too much, we will likely get different eye i 9 , such as shortsighted. Many students have got such eye problems. They spend so much time doing their homework or playing computers that their ciliary muscles can’t get e 10 rest. As a result, more and more teenagers have to wear glasses. Let’s take good care of our eyes now. 首字母填空 Now lots of parents will buy everything that their children want to have. If they go on with the habit (习惯), their children won’t know the money c 1 from hard work. Some parents like h 2 birthday parties for their children. If they go on doing this, their children will think it n 3 for them to enjoy birthday parties every year. Year after year, m 4 they will forget their parents’ birthdays and only remember their own. It is a 5 traditional habits. Many parents don’t let their children do housework. They think children have only one thing to do. They should study hard and do well in their lessons. If parents go on doing this, their children will only learn to open their m 6 to eat and stretch out (伸出) their arms to be dressed every day. When the children g 7 up, they will be a 8 to do nothing, and they won’t even find a job. In a word, parents should teach their children h 9 to do housework because it can help them start good habits of working by t 10 . 请认真阅读下面短文，并根据各题所给首字母的提示，写出一个合适的英语单词完整、正确的形式，使短文通顺。 Dear Holly, It’s that time again—end of term. The final exams are just around the corner. Lately, I’ve been trying to b 1 sleep and studying. If I study a lot and sleep too little, my grades go down because I’m too tired to focus in class the next day. But if I sleep more and study less, my grades also suffer. What should I do? I look forward to your v 2 advice. Too Tired to Think of a Name Dear “Too Tired to Think of a Name”, Always focus on your lessons in class. After school, try to d 3 your study time into smaller sessions. Set clear goals for each session. Let’s say you start with your English homework. After that, take a break and enjoy some snacks. Then, dive into your math homework. Once you’re done, s 4 some time playing with your dog. Repeat this pattern u 5 you’ve finished all your homework. It will take a little longer overall, but you won’t feel so tired afterward. Study for 30 to 40 minutes every day for each subject. Never cram (挤满) the night before an exam. Cramming will only stress you out and l 6 you feeling tired and probably still unprepared. In short, remember that taking care of y 7 is just as important as studying. If you don’t look after your physical and mental health, you won’t be able to do your best. If you still have d 8 managing it all, talk to a parent, teacher or older schoolmate. They’ve probably been through similar c 9 and can give you useful advice. I hope you think my advice is w 10 taking. Best wishes, Holly Brantley 首字母填空 Teenage life is full of joy and small challenges. We study hard every day. Sometimes we face difficulties, so for most teenagers, f 1 plays an important role—sharing laughs and supporting each other makes hard days easier. Parents and teachers often try to u 2 our feelings, which gives us a warm s 3 of being cared for. They also e 4 us to try new things, like joining clubs. H 5 , school life has rules too. We must wear school u 6 every day and follow rules in h 7 activities like science experiments, for they may be dangerous sometimes. The best part? V 8 ! Some students even join i 9 camps to make friends worldwide. These experiences help us become more a 10 of the big, wonderful world around us. A new study has shown that almost half of teenagers in the UK feel addicted (沉溺的) to using social media. The r 1 was done by a team at the University of Cambridge England. It is a project that is tracking (追踪) the lives of around 19,000 young people who were b 2 between 2000 and 2002 in the UK. The study aims (目的是) to learn about people’s lifestyles over a long time. When the young people in the study were between the a 3 of 16 and 18, they were asked about social media for the first time. A group of 7,022 were asked if they agreed or disagreed with the statement, “I think I am addicted to social media”. The results showed that 48% either agreed or s 4 agreed with the statement. M 5 girls agreed with the statement than boys. Georgia Turner, who leads the team studying the survey results, said that “feeling addicted” to something isn’t necessarily (必然地) the s 6 as actually “being addicted”. H 7 , she added that it’s not very nice to feel like you don’t have control over your behavior. “It’s q 8 surprising that so many people feel like that,” said Turner. Researchers think the study is important to help them understand young people’s b 9 when they are using social media. The information could be used to find w 10 to help young people develop a healthier relationship with social media and spend less time using it. 能力综合实践5篇 请根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词。 Do you ever find yourself doing something without thinking about it? We do lots of things out of habit rather than for any good reason. Learning to have healthy new habits can help you to r 1 your goals (目标). What is a habit? A habit is something you do often, almost without thinking. Scientists say that habits are formed in the brain and i 2 a cause, action and a reward. If you have a habit of watching TV when you reach home from school, the cause would be coming home from school; the a 3 is turning on the TV; and the reward might be the happy, relaxed feeling from watching your favorite program. This good feeling makes you want to do the same thing after school the next day too, and over. time it can become a h 4 . How are habits good for you? Turning something into a habit means you don’t have to think about it, which is good news when it’s healthy. Good habits can help fight a 5 bad ones too, such as worrying. Sadie who is 11, finds her habit of playing with fidget toys reduce stress (压力). “They help me r 6 , “she says. Scientists believe that nearly half of everything we do every day is out of habit, s 7 forming helpful habits is also a great way to help you to reach your goals. How can you start to build healthy new habits? Dr Radha Modgil notes that it’s important to think about why you want to change. “What do you want to achieve and h 8 are you going to do it?” she asks. When it’s time to begin, Try the 1% idea where every day you improve or c 9 somethingby 1%. That way you start to see progress and you’re not put offby failure. Remember that building new habits is sometimes d 10 but it will be worth (值得) it in the end. “Changing habits canchange your life,” says Modgil. 根据短文内容和首字母提示，填写所缺单词,使短文意思完整。 How can we students keep ourselves safe? Here are some w 1 . On your way home or to school: Wait for the green traffic light, and look left and right before you c 2 the road. If you see a car coming, don’t cross it until it is really safe. Dress bright colours, so the drivers can see you c 3 . At school: When students around you begin to push, try to hold onto something, or stay in a safer comer. If you fall down in a crowded (拥挤的) place, cover you head with b 4 hands. When there is a fire: Stay calm and leave q 5 . Use a piece of wet cloth to cover your mouth and nose so that you won’t take in s 6 . If your clothes catch fire, please drop to the ground and roll from side to side to put out the fire. For eating: Wash fruit like apples carefully. Make s 7 that they are clean enough to eat. Check the expiration dates (保质期) and i 8 your food looks or smells terrible, don’t eat it. For riding on the escalator (自动扶梯): Hold onto the handrails. It’s d 9 to run up and down on it. You may f 10 down because escalator steps are not fit for running. 根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词，使短文意思完整 Many students ask me for advice about how to i 1 their English. Here are three b 2 questions. First, it is difficult to u 3 English films and songs. The second question is about speaking. The third question is about vocabulary. Here is Doctor Diana’s a 4 . First, watch and listen to them several t 5 , guess the meaning of the new words and talk about the films or songs with your friends. Second, if you want to have a c 6 with others, you should smile at them! Do not be a 7 to talk to people and remember this: Don’t be s 8 . Just try. Third, it is n 9 to forget new words! It’s good to write four or five words a day on pieces of paper and p 10 them in your room. Read the words when you see them, and try to use them. The last two months has been a roller coaster. I l 1 my job and my project, all of which I loved. Now, the sadness is still there, but meanwhile I feel huge e 2 over following a long-time dream of mine: writing a memoir (回忆录). In the margins (间隙) of time, while working full time, I worked slowly on the b 3 of a book: a name, an outline, and a title for the first chapter. I tried to f 4 some writing time. Sometimes I would write for a free half hour in the morning before everything s 5 . It’s true that I don’t have any income now and no one knows what will happen next. But it is a 6 a fact that I’m living my actual dream. Now I wake up with a feeling of thrill (兴奋) in my chest every day, and I think: I get to write today. Though all this happened s 7 , not up to my plan. I feel lucky that I have this life now. And yes, it’s a long road to publishing a book. Yes, I don’t know if I’ll ever make m 8 from this. As I write, I read Martha Beck’s book. In a section called “The Power of One-Degree Turns (转向)”, she writes. “Positive changes happen more quickly when we do it in s 9 steps, not in great leaps (跳跃). Every day, you make many tiny decisions about your time, every one of which is a chance to turn towards the life you really w 10 .” Looking back, I see that all my writing in the margins of time was my way of making steps to this dream. I can’t wait to continue working on this and, eventually, share it with the world. My classmates often ask me how I feel about being a top student. They all seem to admire (羡慕) me, or even envy (嫉妒) me. They say they want to know what helps me to be s 1 However, I am not as happy as I seem to be. I have many p 2 The first is that I often feel stressed (压抑). I often feel some of my lessons b 3 . I have to face too many exercises that I don’t enjoy at all. I have to do them, but I don’t think t 4 are useful. These exercises keep me busy even on the weekends. I must stay up late to finish them. As a result, I often feel t 5 in the day. Secondly, I always feel that f 6 of my teachers and classmates understand me enough. I try to be friendly to them. But some of them say I just pretend (假装) to be so. They even say I look down on (瞧不起) the students who don’t do as w 7 as me in lessons, a 8 I spend lots of time helping them. I don’t know why I have no c 9 friends. I feel terrible when my classmates refuse to play and work with me. And I feel lonely. Both problems w 10 me very much. I just don’t know what to do. 8 同步新教材，周周有练习，月月有重点！ 9 同步新教材，周周有练习，月月有重点！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
