I’m Li Hua, a senior three student in our school. Last Monday I received three America students. We had a wonderful time. And I tasted the pleased feeling of friendship.

In the afternoon, after divided into two groups, we began to work for the coming English speech contest. Just as I was wondering what to do next, I saw a familiar figure passed by our classroom. It was my English teacher, I wondered that he would say, He said that it was a competition that everyone would like to take part in it. He added that I was pretty fluent with English, but I needed to arrange my time good.

In the evening, at about half past ten, we finished working. I don’t know the result, but I’m sure without our help, winning the championship will be the effort.

China has developed a technology that is able to transform desert lands into available soil.

According to CGTN (中国国际电视台), Chinese scientists have achieved success in growing crops in areas with bad conditions caused by lack of rain and4.(extreme) hot temperatures. One particular area is in a desert in North China’s Inner Mongolia. Over 70 kinds of crops are growing there. Many are not planted by humans but they just grow5.(they), And the costs of artificial materials and machines for transforming sand into soil is much6.(low) compared with regular methods. Now, nearly 500 acres of sand is being turned into farms producing corn,7.(tomato) and sunflowers. A reforestation (重造森林) project is also currently in progress,8.is set to reforest 50% of desert land in three years.

Researchers are looking into expanding their project this fall, with9.plan to transform another 500 acres of desert. In the next few years, the scientists are10.(confidence) that they can turn over 30,000 acres more into rich ground.

    Today we spent the morning going through our personal belongings. We were looking for items to______for free at a local park. Not just any items but things people really______. Our aim was not to find things we no longer______but things we use every day that would be______to others.

We packed these things______the box and added some small toys. We added a list of local addresses and phone numbers of local______agencies. Inside the box a simple letter was placed. It______: “Please take these items and know that your life is important.______are difficult but these days will pass. We share what we have believing that it will______. Use the food to nurture your______and use the blankets to stay warm. Be safe and know that the human______can overcome anything. Do not hold your head______for having a need to stay warm. Someday please do the same when you can.”

This kind______was not because the phone rang or for any reason. It was______because it was the right to do. We have often seen______people at the park where we left the belongings. I______that my wife had put her favorite green coat into the box. I asked if she was______about it and she just replied that it had a hood (兜帽). Her answer told me why it is I who love her.

If something that you’re doing doesn’t challenge you, then it doesn’t change you. We all need some normal stress in our lives, after all.1. So challenge the following limits:

1. Figure out what you're scared of and do it continuously.

If you're a salesman, and you're scared of talking to people personally or over the phone now, instead of being scared and thinking you'll fail, spend at least five minutes a day to pick up the phone and make a call. 2. But don't stop on the first try! Eventually, you can look at fear in the eye and say, “Go on. I'm not scared!”

2. 3.

Make sure this hobby is not linked to your career; you have to relax and relieve your stress while performing this. Some examples might be cooking, sewing, painting and so on. Apart from helping you challenge yourself, taking a class for your hobby may also give you extra income.

3. Set aside at least nine minutes a day for physical exercise.

4. A simple 9-minute run around your neighborhood can do wonders for yourself. Exercise can not only help you maintain your regular weight, but also make you feel better about yourself.

4. Travel and allow yourself to be interested in new people.

Don't just limit yourself to your fellow travelers----try to connect with the service staff. You never know what kind of people they're going to be. Get out of your house or go online right now to book your class. 5.

A. You should do it continuously.

B. Someone may hang up on you.

C. You don't need to go to the gym.

D. Running in the gym may be a better choice.

E. Start to travel now and learn to challenge yourself.

F. Take a class for a hobby you've been wanting to develop.

G. You can never see any improvement if you stick to your comfort zone.

    A report released this month found that grouping children by ability is on the rise again—teaching students in groups of similar ability has improved achievements for fast and slow learners alike—and who wouldn’t want bright kids to be able to move ahead?

But for most kids, labels (标签) applied early in life tend to stick, even if they are wrong.

Sorting school children by ability has long been controversial. In some countries, especially in Asia, school-wide tracking (分流) remains normal. Children are tested and placed in different schools that direct them toward professional or vocational careers. Movement between the tracks is rare.

School-wide tracking decreased in US schools in the 1960s and 1970s. It never died out, though. Sorting students into separate tracks for math at about junior high school age continues to be common, and other forms of tracking persist as well.

Unlike tracking, which means sorting students into separate classrooms, ability grouping happens within classrooms. When done according to the latest research, it has proven to promote achievements. Ability grouping is changeable and temporary. Within classrooms, students might be divided into different learning groups dealing with materials of different levels. Any students who master concepts can move upward between groups, and the student groups might look different from subject to subject and unit to unit. For instance, a student who stands out in language arts might be at an average or slower level in math. A student who flies through multiplication tables might need extra help with fractions. Students who lag in reading can be pulled out of the classroom in small groups for practice with a tutor until their reading improves.

Research shows ability grouping within classes has more positive benefits than tracking. However, that must be weighed against the challenges involved. In many regular classrooms, the differences between student ability levels are very big. That presents challenges for teachers and low-performing students to constantly compare themselves with students who seem to fly through school with ease.

The rigid ability groups and tracking of the past are still with us in many schools. Likely, labels are applied with more caution than in the bad old days when some teachers gave reading groups not-so-secret code names like “Bluebirds”, “Robins”, “Crows” and “Buzzards”. But kids still know.

1.Why is grouping children by ability becoming popular again?

A. Because most teachers do not like slower learners.

B. Because grouping children should be done early in life.

C. Because it is academically beneficial to different learners.

D. Because fast learners can move ahead without teachers’ help.

2.By saying “Movement between the tracks is rare.” in paragraph 3, the writer really means            .

A. tracking children is normal in Asia

B. school-wide tracking has decreased in US

C. professional and vocational careers are unrelated

D. sorted students can hardly change schools

3.The examples in paragraph 5 are used mainly to illustrate            .

A. a good language learner promises to be good at math

B. a student might join different groups for different courses

C. ability grouping benefits gifted students more than slow ones

D. ability grouping presents no challenge for those slow students

4.What might be the challenge in regular classrooms for teachers?

A. Students’ different levels. B. Students’ low performance.

C. Constant self-comparison. D. Application of not-so-secret code.
