Sometimes all it takes to make the day better is a smile. Maybe someone smiles at you, or you share a smile with others. Little acts of kindness like a shining smile can bring care and warmth to someone who has had a terrible day.
A sweet smile, a nice hello, or a gift of something small can help brighten your day. World Smile Day encourages you to do something to bring more smiles into the world.
Drawing a smiley face was a very easy thing—a circle with two dots and an upturned curve (向上的曲线) , but Harvey Ball put them together and created one of the most famous symbols in the world in 1963. The smiley face is probably the first emoji in the world. To help people use the smiley face correctly, Harvey created World Smile Day to encourage everyone to share joy and love with others. People fixed the date of World Smile Day on the first Friday of October in 1999.
Sadly, Harvey died in 2001, but to commemorate him, people started the Harvey Ball World Smile Foundation in the same year. As the sponsor (赞助商) of World Smile Day every year, the foundation has always carried Harvey’s message of joy and love.
World Smile Day is your chance to help brighten the world and make the world a better place through the power of the sweet smile.
26. What does the first paragraph tell us?
A. A smile is good for our health. B. We should smile at others every day.
C. A smile can make a difference to someone. D. A smile can help us forget our problems forever.

A. a circle B. two dots C. an upturned curve D. a picture of Harvey

①Harvey Ball died.
②Harvey Ball made the smiley face.
③Harvey Ball created World Smile Day.
④People created the Harvey Ball World Smile Foundation.
A. ④②③① B. ②③①④ C. ①②④③ D. ②④①③
29. The underlined word “commemorate” means “________”.
A. describe B. protect C. encourage D. remember
30. The passage is mainly to ________.
A. introduce World Smile Day B. show how to smile brightly
C. tell the story of the first smiley face D. encourage us to do something kind

How to Build a Great Team
Do you want to be a good team member? A strong team needs everyone to work together. Team spirit does not come by itself. You have to build it step by step. Here are four useful ways for you to build team spirit well.
First, share the work. In a team, every member should take part in the task. You can divide the work into small parts. Everyone does their own part well, and the team finishes faster. No one feels too tired when the work is shared. Everyone feels they are important to the team.
Second, accept different ideas. You may not always agree with your teammates. That is fine. Try to understand their ideas without getting angry. Different ideas often help the teammates to solve problems better. When you listen to different opinions, you may learn something new.
Third, give support. Strong members should help others in need at once. They should not wait to be asked. This is how real team spirit grows. A small act of kindness can make a weak member feel stronger. Your help may be just what they need.
Fourth, keep promises. If you say you will finish a task, do it on time. Always speak politely to your teammates. This will help build trust. When everyone keeps their word, the team becomes a happy place to work together.
Follow these ways, and you will become a great team member. Your team will be stronger and more successful than ever. Start practising them today and you will see the difference very soon.
Four ways to _____31_____ team spirit.
Sharing the work
The work should _____32_____ into small parts.
Accepting different ideas
Different ideas help the teammates find better _____33_____ to problems.
Giving support
Strong members should help others in need _____34_____.
Keeping promises
Always speak to your teammates in a _____35_____ way.

To turn her dream into reality, Zhang Jing made every effort and worked far harder than her peers. Every morning after getting up, she read English and listened to English news. She spent plenty of time practicing different kinds of English exercises. When she failed to do something well, she would encourage herself patiently, “I will do better next time and never give up.”
Her teacher once spoke highly of her, “She was a hard-working student and always got excellent grades.” In the end, she entered China Foreign Affairs University (外交学院). Although she could go to world-famous top universities like Peking University and Tsinghua University, she remained true to her dream and chose her dream school.
Now Zhang Jing is known as one of the most outstanding interpreters in China. In fact, being a professional (专业的) interpreter is not easy. You must be excellent at English and think very quickly. These qualities have led Zhang to great success.
