A few days ago, I had a fight with my mum. I wanted a new phone because many of my friends had new phones. But when I asked Mum for one, she said, “No way!”That made me angry. I wondered, “Doesn't my mum love me?”
Finally, Mum agreed to get me a new phone — but she would pay 70% of the cost, and I had to pay the rest by selling watermelons with her and Dad. I thought,“How hard could it be?”
But the first day was tough. We got up at 4:00 a. m. and drove 100 kilometres to a watermelon farm. When reaching the farm, my parents rushed to pick good watermelons. Then we got over 500 kilograms of watermelons and carried them onto the truck(卡车) one by one.
By noon, we finally made it to the market. It was very hot in the sun, and we were all sweaty (满是汗的). We sold watermelons until 9:30 p. m. I was so tired that I lay on the ground. My mum sat under a streetlight, counting the money again and again. Then she said to me with a big smile,“Son, we made 371 yuan today!” Looking at my mum, I could hardly hold back my tears.
In the end, Mum gave me the money for the phone. But I gave it back. I realized I shouldn't spend it. Now I know love is never an excuse(借口) to take parents' hard work for granted(认为……理所当然).

Exercise isn't just good for our bodies — it can also benefit our brains(脑).In a new study, scientists found that exercise can improve students’ focus at school.
Scientists from the University of North Carolina did the study with 25 students aged 9 to 12. The children did simple but high-intensity (高强度的)exercises like jumping jacks and squats. Each exercise lasted 30 seconds (秒), with a 30-second rest in between. They exercised for 9 minutes in total.
After the exercises, the scientists asked the students to take language tests on the computer. The scientists also had the students take the tests after doing low-intensity exercises (like riding an exercise bike) and after watching a video.The result? The students did best in the language tests right after the high-intensity exercises.
The scientists watched the students’ brain activity too. They found that after the high-intensity exercises, the students noticed their mistakes but didn't spend too much time thinking about them. Instead,they moved on quickly and focused on the rest of the tests.
“Physical activity is great for kids’ brain health and schoolwork,” one scientist said. Students can do these exercises right in the classroom. So, a short exercise break might be just what students need to do better in class!
( )28. How long did the students do high-intensity exercises in the study?
A. For 9 minutes. B. For 12 minutes. C. For 30 seconds.
( )29. Which activity helped the students do best in the language tests?
A. Riding an exercise bike. B. Watching a funny video. C. Doing jumping jacks and squats.
( )30. After the high-intensity exercises,how did the students deal with their test mistakes?
A. They worried more. B. They kept thinking. C. They moved on quickly.
( )31. Why did the writer write the passage?
A. To compare different ways of exercise. B. To encourage students to exercise more.
C. To explain changes in brain activity during exercise.
