In recent years, schools across China have focused more on labor
education. Last month, our school . .1. . a “Farm-to-Table” project. Students
worked in groups to set up small vegetable gardens on a(n) . .2. . school
field. Our teacher told us, “Some wild plants will grow with your
vegetables. They are called weeds(杂草). You must stop them! Each
group's jobs include planting seeds, watering plants, and weed . .3. ., since
weeds steal nutrients (营养) and space from vegetables.”

At first, most of us felt confused(困惑的). Our teacher gave us
a . .4. . explanation of the steps: how to make the soil soft, how to choose
good seeds, and how to plant them correctly. . .5. . our teacher's help, we
buried the first seeds into the ground 2 cm deep.
After weeks of hard work, the students began to . .6. . the plants'
growth. Every new leaf made us proud. But there were challenges too.
One week, heavy rain damaged (破坏) our plants. We almost gave up
when the plants were damaged, . .7. . our teacher encouraged us to keep
trying. To . .8. . amazement, they stood strong like soldiers after the storm.
This taught us about the hidden wonder of plant survival, which felt
almost magical. Through this project, we learned basic plant science—
how sunlight and water affect their growth. We now understand that good
harvests don't come . .9. ..
Our school will . .10. . this project next year to help more students
experience the joy of farming. Labor education helps us become braver in
facing difficulties.#4

On the first day of my middle school, Mr. Thompson drew a circle
on a board, and inside the circle were a small house and a little kid
with his parents.
Then Mr. Thompson asked us, “What do you think this circle is?”
“The world?” one kid said. “Close!” He smiled and said. “This is your
comfort zone (舒适区). Inside this circle are all things that make you
feel safe and happy—your home, family, friends, and things you know
well.”
10
Next, Mr. Thompson asked, “What happens if you step out of
this circle?” The same kid said, “We feel scared.” Another kid added,
“We make mistakes.” He nodded and said, “Yes, but what happens when
you make mistakes?” The first kid shouted, “We learn something!”
“Exactly!” Mr. Thompson said. He drew an arrow (箭头) in the
picture from the kid to the outside of the circle. “When you step out of
your comfort zone, you try new things. It might feel scary at first, but
this is how you grow.” He then drew a larger circle around the first one
and added more things, including a bigger house, a larger family, many
more friends, and most importantly, a tall, handsome, confident teenager
the little kid would grow into.
Just be brave, step outside, and see what new things we will come
across in life!#1.4

Song Lian was a famous historian and official in the Ming Dynasty.
He was known as one of the three great writers in the early Ming
Dynasty.
As a child, Song loved reading, but his family was too poor to buy
him books. Song had to borrow books, and he always made sure to
return them on time.
Once Song borrowed a book and liked it a lot. He decided to copy
the book down, but the book was due(到期的)soon. Song Lian copied the
15
book every day until midnight. It was the middle of winter. His mother
said, “It's too cold to stay up late. The owner of the book isn't waiting
to read it, is he?”
“It doesn't matter whether he's waiting or not,” Song replied. “It's a
matter of faith. If you make a habit of breaking promises, how can
others believe in you next time?”
Another time, Song planned to visit a famous teacher far away, but
on the day he was to set out, it snowed heavily. When Song went to get
his luggage (行李), his mother was surprised. “How can you travel so far
on such a snowy day?” she asked. “Why not wait until the snow clears?
No one expects you to be on time in this weather.” Song smiled and
said, “No matter how hard the snow falls, I must go. It would be
impolite to break my promise.”
When Song arrived at the teacher's house, the teacher was greatly
moved. He said, “Young man, nothing can stop you from keeping your
word. You'll surely have a bright future!”#6
