Most families in cities live in an apartment with several functional rooms. The kitchen is often the heart of the home, where meals are prepared and family members gather to share snacks and stories. The living room serves as a common area for watching TV, entertaining guests, or simply relaxing together. The bedroom, on the other hand, offers privacy and rest. Inside these rooms, furniture such as sofas, tables, beds and cupboards makes life convenient. However, a comfortable home is not created by furniture alone. It requires the effort of every family member to share housework — washing dishes, sweeping the floor, doing laundry, and cleaning the bathroom. When everyone contributes, the home stays clean and the workload is balanced. In many families, the father works hard to support the family financially. But supporting the family is not only about earning money. Emotional support, such as listening to children’s problems or helping with homework, is equally important. Mothers, fathers, and even children can all contribute to making the family function well. One of the happiest moments in family life is when people hold a family party. Whether it is a birthday celebration, a holiday dinner, or just a weekend get-together, a family party strengthens bonds and creates warm memories. During such parties, the living room becomes a stage for laughter, games and heartfelt conversations. A well-kept home and shared responsibilities lay the foundation for a happy family life. 36. According to the passage, which room is described as “the heart of the home”? A. The living room. B. The bedroom. C. The kitchen. D. The balcony. 37. Why is it important for family members to share housework? A. To avoid doing it themselves. B. To keep the home clean and balance the workload. C. To earn money from others. D. To spend less time at home. 38. What does “support the family” mainly refer to in the passage? A. Only earning money. B. Only doing housework. C. Both financial and emotional support. D. Holding family parties. 39. What often happens during a family party according to the text? A. Family members argue about housework. B. People watch TV alone in their bedrooms. C. The family gathers to laugh, play and talk. D. Everyone does extra cleaning. 40. What is the best title for this passage? A. The Importance of Expensive Furniture B. How to Avoid Housework C. Home, Housework and Family Gatherings D. Why Bedrooms Are the Most Important Rooms B Be Ready for Your Dream Jobs! What’s your dream job? How much do you know about it? A group of students from Tianjin found that most of them had few ideas about their future jobs due to a lack of support from school or family. To provide helpful guidance (指导), students from TEDA No.1 Secondary School started an activity called “Dian Zhi Cheng Shi, Zhi Yin Wei Lai”. The team interviewed professionals (专业人士) from different fields and published their interviews on the Internet. These professionals shared their true stories and opinions on different jobs. “We also invited the professionals to give talks so that students could talk to them face to face,” said Wang Xinran. Wang’s favourite interview was with a photographer. “I used to think being a photographer was cool, but now I realize they face many challenges. For example, they have to talk with different people and keep an eye on the weather. One of the biggest challenges is the awful weather. So I think the job isn’t easy,” the photographer said. Such interviews don’t disappoint (使失望) students because there are still some happy and exciting things at work. “We want to show the beauty in every profession,” said Zhao Yajie. “We believe work should be about love. And we hope the activity can help students understand that.” 41. Why did the students from TEDA No.1 Secondary School start the activity? A. To provide students with useful guidance. B.

All it took to bring them together was a couple of texts to the wrong number. Dench, a grandmother of four kids, living in Mesa, Arizona, meant to text her grandson to invite him to her 2016 Thanksgiving dinner, but she reached Hinton by mistake. 17-year-old Hinton was confused that someone named his grandma had texted him while he was in class. She sent a smiling photo of herself to him. Hinton found she wasn’t his grandma. Attracted by her smile, full of sunshine and gentle love, Hinton thought this just matched his idea of a grandmother and he then asked if he still could have a plate. “Of course you can,” she replied. “That’s what grandmas do!” The big day came very fast. With a touch of anxiety, Hinton showed up at her home to share the meal. Dench was excited about his coming. Hinton told the Dench family about his plans for the future. She spoke highly of the young man. Hinton seemed to enjoy this grandma’s cooking and hoped to be invited more. The two were fast friends. The two have remained close since sharing their first turkey dinner. They are not limited to the Thanksgiving table. Dench and her husband called Hinton to visit a pumpkin farm with them. Hinton said he became Dench’s personal tech support, helping her set up her new phone. Years later, Hinton moved into his first apartment with his wife Mikaela. Later, they had their first baby. Certainly, Dench is a great-grandmother now. Their story was reported by a local TV station. Their photos of the two with handwritten notes that marked each moment moved many people. Their Thanksgiving party gets bigger and bigger every year and their connection grows deeper. Dench said, “I just feel like my life has been enriched since he’s come into it.” 46.
