十、书面表达范文
As we know, mobile phones play an important role in our daily life. Lots of middle school students carry their own mobile phones to school now.
I fully agree with the school rule that we can’t bring mobile phones to school. First, mobile phones are bad for our study. Many students spend class time playing games or chatting online instead of listening to teachers. Second, staring at phone screens for long does harm to our eyesight.
I advise all classmates not to take phones to school. If we need to contact parents, we can use the school office phone. We should follow school rules and focus more on our lessons and after-school activities.

On the first day of Grade Eight, Ms White became our Chinese teacher. She spoke gently but firmly, and we quickly knew she would keep strict class rules. She told us we needed to memorize 300 lines of ancient poems this term by heart. The whole class whispered in surprise, and I worried a lot about finishing such a hard task.
As weeks went by, Ms White taught us to enjoy poems like tasty food. She let us feel their beat, feelings and deep meanings. “Poems are not just words,” she told us. “They are beautiful music, strong feelings and a window to ancient people’s hearts.” We read poems aloud, talked about them and even acted poem stories. For each poem, we learned about the poet’s life and what made them write the works. One cloudy afternoon, Ms White played soft traditional music while we read Li Bai’s poems, asking us to “feel the free spirit in his lines”.
One of the first poems we learned was Li Bai’s Quiet Night Thought. It talks about missing hometown at night and tells us to treasure our family. Li Bai wrote, “Looking up, I see the bright moon; bowing down, I miss my hometown.” He tells us to cherish the people around us.
Of course, many students complained now and then. Every week we got new poems: sad poems, funny poems and meaningful poems. I often stayed in my quiet room, walking around or sitting at the desk, reading each line again and again until I could recite it completely.
Finally, I finished Grade Eight and went to high school. One autumn evening, when I walked under bright moon, I found myself reciting Li Bai’s lines naturally.
Years later, I understood the great gift Ms White gave me through poems. She believed poems could shape us into better people and asked us to keep them in our hearts. She taught me the true meaning of learning things “by heart”.
39. What does the underlined phrase “keep strict class rules” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. She wanted to build a small boat. B. She loved sailing outside school.
C. She would manage the class strictly. D. She let students learn anything they liked.
40. What was the writer’s first feeling about memorizing many poems?
A. He felt excited about the hard challenge.
B. He was confident about his memory.
C. He didn’t know why poems were important.
D. He doubted if he could finish the task.
41. What way did Ms White use to help students understand poems better?
A. Let students feel their rhythm, mood and meaning.
B. Break poems into simple sentence parts.
C. Compare poems with other writing styles.
D. Share her own ideas about every poem.
42. What is the best title for the passage?
A. A Strict Chinese Teacher B. Skills to Recite Ancient Poems
C. The Gift of Memorizing Poems D. Moon and Hometown in Poems
C
Schools in China offer traditional subjects. In junior high school, we always have Chinese, math, English, geography, history, music, P.E. and so on.
But these years many schools in China have taught life skills, too. Some people think it helpful for students to live in the real world. But others don’t think so.
As for me, schools should teach students life skills. Life skills such as budget (预算) planning and saving money can stop us from overspending. It would also be a good idea to learn cooking. The skill is the most helpful to us when we are living by ourselves.
Some people think that there is no time for extra subjects at school, and students should learn life skills only at home. But I think we are learning many life skills while taking a traditional class.
For example, we can learn teamwork by doing group games in a P.E. class. And doing our homework teaches us the skill of time planning.
So I believe all schools should teach students life skills. This can make sure that students will prepare well for going to college and working after college.
43. What subjects do schools in China always have?
A.Life skills and cooking. B.Chinese, math and English.
C.Budget planning and saving money. D.Music, P.E. and some new subjects.
44. Put these ideas in order according to the passage.
① Students learn teamwork in P.E. class.
② Some people think students should learn life skills at home.
③ Life skills like cooking are helpful when living alone.
④ The writer thinks schools should teach life skills.
A.④③②① B.③④②① C.②④①③ D.③②①④
45. According to the writer, what can students learn from doing homework?
A.How to save money. B.How to play group games.
C.How to plan their time well. D.How to cook a good meal.
D
How do you feel about math? Some students love solving number games like number puzzles. Math is everywhere in daily life: calculating pocket money, working out shopping bills or planning family costs. But lots of people feel worried and confused once they meet numbers. This feeling is called “math anxiety”, and it is very common. Your fear of math does not always mean you are bad at math.
This problem usually starts when kids are at school. Studies show math teachers who feel nervous about teaching math will pass this worry to students, and girls are easier to get this anxiety. A worldwide student test shows around 32% of 15-16-year-olds feel very nervous when doing math problems, 34% feel worried about math homework, and nearly 58% fear difficult math classes. An education expert from New York University says we need good role models for young students, especially girls. We should invite women who love math to teach young kids.
A writer from a famous education website says: “Math brings more fear than history for unknown reasons. You can’t guess or cheat in math tests, so people feel more stressed. Once you think ‘I’m not good at math’, you will avoid math problems that you can actually solve.”
Researchers are studying why simple mental math makes people nervous. This fear comes from many reasons, but experts say talking out your worries can reduce the stress. Teachers should tell students to see math tests as challenges instead of scary threats. Most importantly, we need to hold positive ideas about math and give it another try.
46. What does the writer think of math anxiety in Paragraph 1?
A. It only appears when people pay shopping bills.
B. It directly shows people’s bad math grades.
C. Only school students have this worried feeling.
D. It’s normal for people to feel it when facing numbers.
47. What may cause students’ math anxiety according to research?
A. The special rules of math subjects. B. Fear of failing math exams.
C. Students’ hate for math learning. D. Math teachers’ own nervousness.
48. What can we learn from the writer’s words on the education website?
A. History seldom makes students worried.
B. Slow learners always have math anxiety.
C. It’s impossible to cheat in math exams.
D. Math lovers enjoy number games.
49. What is the most important way to beat math anxiety?
A. Talk about your worries in public.
B. Ask more female math teachers.
C. Keep a positive attitude towards math.
D. Treat math tests as small challenges.

Can you cook by yourself? Do you like the homework of making a meal? These days, primary and middle school students have to take the Practical Activity Class (实践活动课) at least one class hour every week. Parents and students mostly discussed the topic of cooking. Learning practical skills plays an important role in shaping a person’s character for sure.
Some schools and students have already practised their practical activities. Gu Quan, 13 years old, from No. 18 Middle School, was a lazy boy in the past. In his own words, he seldom did any housework. But things have changed since No. 18 Middle School made housework part of its students’ homework. Doing the dishes, cooking and making the bed…All of these tasks have become part of Gu Quan’s daily life.
At the beginning of each month, every student gets a list of housework to do every weekend. Their parents help them keep a record of their work. The tasks are simple in daily life, such as sweeping the floor, washing cups and cooking food. On holidays like Mother’s Day, students should prepare presents for their mothers. Huang Yixi, 14, has learned several life skills, including cooking. “I was afraid of fire,” she said. But she managed to get over her fear and complete her cooking tasks. At the same time, she also learned how tired her mother gets after doing housework every day. On Mother’s Day, she made a cake for her mother to show her thanks. “I’ve begun to better understand my parents and want to help them more,” she said.
