A: I don’t think so. You helped me work out a difficult math problem last week, remember? 2
B: But I failed my recent math test. Emma got full marks once more.
A: A single test can’t tell everything. Thanks to you, my math has become much better. And your painting for the school art festival was amazing. 3
B: Oh, I just painted it for fun.
A: Still, all classmates really liked your work. Besides, you are funny. Your jokes always cheer us up!
B: 4
A: Sure! You have many talents. Try not to keep comparing yourself with other people.

A: 7
B: Oh, I see. I heard some classmates making fun of him the other day.
A: Really? That’s too bad! 8 He’s actually really good at art.

These days, David is learning how to cook. He used to eat out every day. However, after getting his poor health check results last month, he realised it was time for a change.
David has learned to cook a few dishes, and he has discovered that he enjoys cooking scrambled eggs with tomatoes most. He has cooked the dish several times, each tasting better than the last one. David is happy that his cooking skills improved so greatly in such a short time.
Since David started cooking, his lifestyle (生活方式) has changed a lot. Now, he doesn’t go to a restaurant after work. He spends time cooking dinner at home. This change has made him feel much healthier.
What’s more, cooking has brought him closer to his friends. His friends were surprised to hear that he was learning to cook. They visited him last week, and they cooked a big dinner together. They have grown closer because of the shared experience.
Anyway, cooking has opened up a new world for David, and he hasn’t looked back since he started.

阅读下面短文,根据短文内容完成句子。
These days in China, some famous poets (诗人) like Li Bai and Du Fu are “coming back to life”! They have their own accounts (账号) on rednote and Douyin. They share all kinds of interesting things. For example, Li Bai shares pictures of the streets of his time, and Du Fu writes a poem about the film Ne Zha 2. Su Shi even shares how to cook the dish Dongpo pork!
Many young people are having fun with this. They give voices to people of the past. Through the ancient people’s words, they bring traditional culture to people today. They like the way these poets meet with modern life.
Let’s look at one blogger’s story. Wang Mengqi, a 32-year-old woman, started an account for Li Bai. She chose Li Bai because his poems about freedom speak to young people’s hopes today. She often puts history together with fun Internet language (语言) to make the posts interesting. And she calls this “language cosplay”.
Bloggers like Wang Mengqi come from all walks of life (各行各业). But they have the same hobby. They are all history lovers. They want people to learn important life lessons while “talking” with these famous poets.
However, some people say that the posts might not always be true to history. They worry those posts could give people wrong ideas. So it’s important to always respect (尊重) the poets and their work while having fun.
What do you think of this fun way to meet great poets online? Would you like to “talk” with someone from the past, too?
6. Some famous poets like Li Bai have their own ________ on rednote and Douyin.
7. Su Shi shares how to cook ________ on his online account.
8. Wang Mengqi started an account for Li Bai and calls mixing history and Internet language “________”.
9. Bloggers who create these poet accounts all love ________.
10. According to the passage, we should ________ .

Like Sally in the story, many people worry too much about their looks. They are not 11.h because they think they are not good-looking. 12.H , true beauty is much more than what we see in the mirror.
Firstly, we are all different. A 13.b or different appearance(外貌) isn’t a disaster; it can be a “red rose”, as Maddie said. If we only care about our appearance, we might lose our confidence and miss the 14.c to show what we are good at. As the saying goes, “Beauty is only skin deep.” This 15.t us that what we are like inside is more important than how we look.
Secondly, 16.s comes from hard work and wisdom (才智), not from having a perfect (完美的)face. Take Ma Yun, the founder of Alibaba, for example. He is not a traditionally handsome man, and he was turned down for many jobs because of his appearance. However, he never gave 17.u . He believes that our looks do not decide our future, and that our dreams and hearts are much more important. Today, he is one of the world’s most 18.s people because he is smart and hard-working.
I think Sally is right to think “I am what I am”. We should learn to accept ourselves and be 19.c . We should spend more time making ourselves better instead of worrying 20.a our looks.
