Johnny and his friends were making a cardboard town to play in. At first they were getting on well, turning
boxes into stores and playgrounds, but soon they had different ideas.
“It was my idea,” Johnny said, “so I would just do it without you.” Then he walked away in anger and left his
friends Katie and Max alone.
“Wow, I didn’t expect he’d get so mad,” Katie said.
“Making a cardboard town is a lot of work,” said Max, “Johnny can’t do it all by himself. Maybe if we give
him some space, he’ll want us to help again.”
Johnny wanted the cardboard town done before New Year’s Day so that he could show it to all of his family
when they came over, but New Year’s Day was only two weeks away. When he started again, he found it was just too
big a job. He couldn’t make the buildings out of boxes, put them around the town, and decorate (装饰) them all by
himself. It would take way too long.
“I guess that’s why people work together. When we each played a part, it was fun and everything went a lot
faster. Maybe I should say sorry to my friends. They were just trying to help and have fun with me,” Johnny said tohimself.
The next day at school Johnny said sorry to Katie and Max. “I don’t know why I got so mad. Will you come to
my house tomorrow to complete our town?” Johnny asked.
Katie and Max joyfully agreed. The three all took on a role and the town was done in no time.
30. How did Johnny feel when he and his friends had different ideas?
A. Mad. B. Sad. C. Excited. D. Relaxed.
31. Johnny couldn’t finish the cardboard town before New Year’s Day because _________.

Feelings are difficult to deal with, especially for a 4-year-old who doesn't know why his mum won't let him eat
another cookie and an 8-year-old who is unhappy that his dad got called into work and has to leave the playground
early.
For parents, it's very important to begin teaching kids about their feelings as early as possible because their
feelings affect every choice they make. Kids who understand their feelings are less likely to act out by getting angry
or fighting with others. They can use clear sentences to express their feelings. A child who can say," I’m a little
angry with you about what you did," is less likely to get into fights.
A good way to help kids deal with feelings is to set an example for them. Parents should take opportunities to
share their feelings with kids in their daily life. A parent could say to the kid, "I feel sad that you don't want to share
your toys with your sister. Can we talk about this a little bit?" Kids can learn to deal with unpleasant feelings fromconversations like this.
Another great way to help kids learn about feelings is to discuss how different roles in TV series may feel.
When watching TV a parent could stop and ask the kid, "How do you think he feels right now?" Then, discuss the
feelings that person may be experiencing and the reasons.
Doing so also teaches empathy. Young children think the world centers around them, so it can be an eye-
opening experience for them to learn other people have feelings too. When young children can understand other
people's feelings, they are less likely to do bad tings to them. For example, if a child knows that pushing his friend
to the ground may make his friend mad and sad, he will be less likely to do so.
Teaching a kid about feelings will help him become mentally（精神上）strong. Kids who have the skills to
deal with their feelings will be so confident that they can handle whatever life throws their way.
33. Kids who understand their feelings are more likely to ___________.
A. get angry at others B. fight with others
C. talk with clear sentences D. argue with their parents
34. The word "empathy" in Paragraph 5 probably means __________.
A. the ability to understand other people's feelings
B. the idea of the world centering around young kids
C. the willingness to share toys with one's best friend
D. the importance of fighting against difficulties in life
35. What is the writer's purpose of writing this article?
A. To explain why people have different feelings.
B. To advise parents to teach children about feelings.
C. To guide young kids to get along well with parents.
D. To help kids understand different roles in TV series.
D
Are You Distracted(注意力分散的）by Technology?
According to Daily Mail, people spend 8 hours and 41 minutes on electronic devices(电子设备）on average
every day. There is no doubt that people are getting more dependent on technology as time goes by. The only
question is: are you too distracted by it?
Well technology can be a distraction only when people fail to use it responsibly. When a responsible(有责任
的）person uses cellphones, tablets, laptops and other devices, technology has brought many positive effects to the
daily life.
For starters, technology has greatly increased the efficiency of our daily life. We use computers to shop, code,buy tickets, and do many other things. We can check our emails from any place. It makes us keep in touch with
family and friends without any trouble.
Technology also serves as a useful tool to get information. It can help us find out almost every piece of
information we need. A survey by Pew Research Center showed that 62% of smartphone owners in the U.S. have
used their devices to find information about health conditions; 57% relied on their phones to do online banking; and
30% of them have taken a class on a smartphone during 2019.
However, there are people who hold different opinions. They think that using technology can be addictive.
Some children keep playing computer games and don’t know when to stop. Also, young people are turned into
slaves of consumerism(消费主义的奴隶）because they are flooded with topics about fitness, fashion models,
make-up, movie stars, etc. These topics can serve as a distraction from studying. But think about it, didn’t children
in the past have their own distraction? Before the age of technology, the street was a distraction. Parents were
worried about how long children spent playing outside. Young people always find their ways to get their minds off
schoolwork. It's not the fault of modern technology.
In conclusion, we cannot even imagine living without our smartphones, tablets and laptops. We need
technology to connect to the rest of the world and get useful information. Whether we allow ourselves to be
controlled by technology or we stay strong to fight against the addiction to it — that’s something we should all
decide for ourselves.
36. Why does the writer mention the average time people spend on electronic devices?
A. To lead in the topic. B. To stress its importance.
C. To criticize the behavior. D. To explore its influence.
37. In paragraph 4, the writer uses a survey by Pew Research Center to show .
.
A we can check our emails from any place in the world
B. technology serves as a useful tool to get information
C. people in the US are more likely to take online classes
D. smartphone owners spend too much time on their phones
38. What can we learn from the passage?
A. People are getting less dependent on technology as time goes by.
B. Technology has helped us keep in touch with others more easily.
C. Parents do not allow their children to play outside on the street.
D. Young people hate schoolwork because of modern technology.
.
39 The writer probably agrees that ________.
A. technology always brings positive effects to our daily lifeB. children nowadays have the same distraction as they did in the past
C. it is actually very easy to live without smartphones, tablets and laptops
D. we should be responsible for our behaviors when using technology

Treasure of Life
Once upon a time, there lived a wise man. His son, however, was very lazy.
The man was worried about his son’s future. And he recognized the need to give something to his son so that
he could take care of himself.
One day, the man said to his son, “I want you to find the real purpose of your life.” Then he handed his son a
map and asked him to find the treasure.
The son set out the next day. Along the way, he met a lot of people. Some helped him with food, and some
with shelter (住所). Finally, after a long year, he reached the place. But he found nothing.
On his way back, he went through the same places. But this time, he stopped to enjoy the beauty of nature. He
learned how to hunt, cook, and protect himself from wild animals. He met the same people who had helped him
earlier, and this time he helped them in return.
When he reached home, he apologized (道歉) to his father for not finding the treasure.
“There wasn’t any treasure, my son,” the man answered with a smile.
“But why did you send me to find it?” he asked.
Instead of answering the question, the father said, “how was your journey to the place?”
“I didn’t enjoy it at all! Because I was in a hurry looking for the treasure. But I did enjoy the journey on my
way back home. I made many friends and I learned so many skills, which made me forget the pain of not finding
the treasure.”
His father said to him, “now I think you have found your life’s true purpose. I want you to lead your life with a
goal. But if you remain too focused (专注) on your goal, you will miss out the real treasure of life, that is, to just
experience it and grow with it every single day.
