B An 11-year-old girl from Liaoning,China saved a woman who was choking(窒息). Many people online said that she did a good job. It happened on August 8 at a hotpot restaurant. That day, Ms Wu was eating hot pot and drinking milk tea when she suddenly choked.She stood up, held her throat and could not breathe. Her friends and restaurant workers tried to help by hitting her on the back,but it didn't work. At that moment, Hu Zihan, a primary school student at a nearby table came to help. She told everyone she had first aid(急救) training. Hu quickly went behind Ms Wu, put her arms around the woman, and performed the Heimlich manoeuvre(海姆立克急救法). After five or six pushes, Ms Wu could breathe again.The helping process(过程) took only about half a minute. Hu Zihan explained later, "I learned this life-saving skill on August 1. I remembered the training:the first four minutes are the most important in an emergency. Everyone should learn first aid. It can really save lives." Hu's mother was proud of her daughter. Hu's quick action and courage changed a dangerous situation. Her story encourages us to learn first aid so that we can lend a hand to those in need. ( )19. What did Hu Zihan get after saving a woman?

Some people think kindness is something out of love and care, while others believe it is just a tool that we use to become more popular. Research shows that kindness improves people's mood(情绪). But why and how does it happen? Here are a number of different ways. ②Being kind can make someone smile. If you see yourself smile in a situation, people around may be smiling,too. A kind act makes someone who is sad feel better. It can also make ourselves feel good. So why not create a chain(链条)of good will among those around you? ③Secondly,being kind starts or develops a social connection with others.Kind acts like buying someone a present make friendships stronger.Research has shown that spending money on others may help you get a stronger feeling of happiness than spending it on yourself. Similarly, charities also open up new circles of people to connect with someone on the other side of the world. ④In another recent research,even children in their first year of secondary school know how being kind makes them feel happy. If one person is kind,he or she makes others in the group kind. It also lifts everyone's spirits.Imagine that you make cakes for the office and it makes others do it each month. Then you will get cakes a lot more days than providing them. ⑤All in all,being kind may improve your mood.But research has also shown that if you're in a good mood, you can act much more kindly. This makes it a wonderful two-way relationship,doesn't it? ( )23.The writer leads in the topic by___.

(33) Start with small steps to step out of your social comfort zone. Celebrate the success of others. (34) If you find it difficult to do that, that's probably because you're turning the situation into something centred on yourself. Then try to change your mind. A. Use "I" and "me" less in your talk.
