In the past, I thought I was terrible at many things, such as math, French and science. Although I was good at drawing, I wasn't the best in my art class. I wanted to find out who I was, what I liked and how I could do it better. So, that winter, I took a notebook and kept my diary. When I filled that notebook. I started another one, and then another. Keeping a diary helps a lot. Studies have shown that people who keep a diary sleep and feel better. It helps people remember what once happened such as dreams, friendships and happiness. Writing about bad feelings can also help brains get over them and move on. Personally, I learn better about myself and my relationships with others by keeping a diary. For example, when I am fighting with my dad, I'll try writing from his point and it works! If I want to compare myself with my classmates. I'll write something like, "I might not have clear skin, but I like my eyes.” Right about now, you might be thinking: it sounds great, but I'm not a good writer; or I'd love to keep a diary, but my handwriting is terrible. Don’t worry! Keeping a diary is not like doing your homework —there are no rules, so do whatever feels best. 1.What was the writer good at in the past? A.Math B.French. C.Science. D.Drawing. 2.What does the underlined word “them” refer to(指的是)? A.Studies B.Bad feelings C.Friendships. D.Brains 3.What is the second paragraph(段落) mainly about? A.Reasons for fighting with Dad.

The local people of La Gomera can carry on conversations by whistling(吹口哨) from far away. For face-to-face conversations, they speak Spanish. But when they need to speak over a distance(距离), they whistle. La Gomera is a small island. This island is almost shaped like a circle. It is very mountainous. Walking from one place to another may be a slow and difficult job. That is why whistling is so useful to the local people.

Long ago, Mother Nature gave each tree a different purpose. However, she did not share her reasons with the trees. Fir Tree(杉树) had many tree friends. In summer, they watched Bird and Squirrel(松鼠)play in the field. Then autumn arrived. The leaves on other trees turned colourful. Fir Tree's leaves stayed green. Fir Tree told Mother Nature that he wanted his leaves to change colours too. “Be patient,” Mother Nature said. “You will learn your purpose.” So Fir Tree waited. The temperature dropped. Bird flew south, and Squirrel was nowhere around. All the trees lost their leaves except Fir Tree. Soon it snowed. Fir Tree cried, “Why don’t I change like my friends?” “Be patient,” Mother Nature replied.” Soon you will get to know your purpose. Just then, Squirrel appeared. She was cold. She asked if she could build a warm home in branches(树枝). Other trees said no because they had no leaves. But Fir Tree said yes. Squirrel ran up Fir Trees branches. Soon, she was warm, comfortable and asleep. Fir Tree was happy that his green leaves provided a warm home for animals in winter.
