Growing up often comes with troubles and difficulties. I’d like to share one of my own experiences. Last term, I joined a school English speech competition. I practised my speech many times, but I was so nervous that a big mistake was made. Back then, I was so disappointed at being too nervous and failing to win the prize. I couldn’t help crying whenever I thought of it. Then my teacher advised me to try writing stories first because writing could help me express my ideas clearly . I was encouraged by her. At first, I wrote just to take my mind off things. But later, I began to enjoy the time of turning my thoughts into words. I fell completely in love with writing. Now, I’ve finished three stories and joined the school writing club. From this experience, I learned that every failure brings us closer to success. As long as we keep trying, we can overcome any difficulty. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $null Unit 2 Growing pains and gains 单元检测卷 I．短对话理解 1. What does Jimmy advise Judy to do? A. B. C. 2.

A．Sunday morning B．Monday afternoon C．Saturday evening D．Friday afternoon B In December 2025, Australia made a new law. Young people under 16 can’t have their own social media accounts (账号) any more. Apps such as TikTok, YouTube, Snapchat and others must check users’ ages now. And they need to take away the accounts of those under 16. Companies shouldn’t break this rule, or they may have to pay a lot of money. Many parents, teachers and child-safety experts have been worried about the effects of social media on young people. Some Internet risks like cyberbullying, wrong information and long screen time. The government hopes the rule will protect young people’s health and encourage real-world activities. Under the rule, social media companies must use technology like age-checking videos and ID checks to guess a user’s age. If someone seems under 16, their account will be closed. The way isn’t perfect, and some young people may still find ways around it, but it tries its best to decrease the number of users under 16. Different people have different opinions. Some families welcome the change because it makes the internet a safer place. Others are afraid that it may cut off young people from friends and support groups online. Tech companies also say age checks are hard to carry out and may encourage children to move to smaller or riskier apps. Australia will watch how the rule works and see how much it helps young people. Other countries are watching closely, thinking about starting similar laws too. This Australian new plan may influence how the world protects children online in the future. 59．What must social media companies do if they find users under 16 in Australia? A．Warn their parents. B．Close their accounts. C．Limit their time online. D．Send them warnings. 60．Why did Australia make the new law? A．To help social media companies make more money. B．To let young people spend more time online. C．To protect young people’s health and encourage real-world activities. D．To make young people move to smaller and riskier apps. 61．What does the underlined word “decrease” mean in Paragraph 3? A．Reduce. B. Drive. C. Create. D. Find. 62．What is the passage mainly about? A．How children in Australia use social media. B．A new Australian rule on social media for under 16s. C．The history of social media in Australia. D．Different social media apps popular among children. C My grandma was a great old lady. When I was 10 years old, she left her farm and came to stay with us in the town. For the first few months, grandma felt sad. She missed the peace of life in the countryside. When the warm spring came, grandma announced (宣布) that she was going to plant a small garden. When my father said that we had no need to grow food, she answered, “I know, but I have always grown a garden on my farm. And I am sure that I’m going to plant one here.” Then, grandma asked me if I would help her and I happily agreed. In the early spring, she taught me how to start small seeds (种子) in boxes inside. I carefully watered them every day. Soon, little green leaves came out. When the days got warm, we moved the seedlings (秧苗) to the small garden. After that, grandma and I stood by and looked happily at the newly planted garden. “In a month, we will have fresh carrots to eat,” said Grandma happily. “And a few weeks after that, we will have plenty of fresh vegetables.” Of course, just like what my father said, we did not need the food from grandma’s garden. _____________.

But on his birthday, his father gave him a lot of books as a gift. Although Mike was a little unhappy because he did not get the bike, he also thanked his father. Mike’s father was very sad too. He didn’t have enough money to buy a bike for Mike. He told his son that he would soon buy him a bike. After a week, Sam, Mike’s classmate, was badly hurt when he rode his bike on the road. Mike saw this and rushed to a nearby hospital to ask for help. An ambulance (救护车) came and carried Sam to the hospital. He then rushed to tell Sam’s parents.

Then, I read a passage about dealing with negative emotions. It said we should not keep negative feelings inside. We should talk with someone we trust. So, I decided to talk with my mother.
