Different people have different interests in their free time. My friend Li Ming and I often go to the movies
when we are free. However, we like different movies.
My favorite movie star is Wu Jing. He is a great actor. He looks handsome. He had a film called the Battle at
Lake Changjin《长津湖》recently. It’s a wonderful war film. And it is very popular these days. I think it’s moving.
But Li Ming likes Shen Teng best. He thinks his movies are funny. He will laugh loudly when he watches
them. One of Shen Teng’s movies is Crazy Alien《疯狂的外星人》. But I don’t think it’s great. In fact, it’s
boring. What’s more, Li Ming also likes watching Beijing Opera. He even hopes to be a Beijing Opera artist. I
don’t like Beijing Opera very much, but my father likes it a lot. He often tells me, “Beijing Opera is a symbol of
our traditional culture. We should learn and develop it.”

In October 2021, I left New York to study alone in London. My parents didn’t have enough money for my
school, so I found three part-time jobs to pay for my studies. I worked early mornings and late nights, so I was tired
all the time. After two week’s hard work, I got a cold and had a very high fever. Because I was new in London, I
had no friends. Besides（而且）, I was too shy to talk with others and ask others for help. After sleeping on the
bed for two days, I went out to get some food in a small shop nearby.
I picked some food and gave it to the shopkeeper, who asked me, “You look terrible, my boy! You are not
feeling well, right?” I said yes in a low voice.She pointed at the food I was buying and offered, “I can make you a sandwich, so you don’t have to do it
yourself.” I nodded（点头）without saying a word.
She went into the back room and came again with a bowl of hot soup and a sandwich.
“The soup will warm you up,” she said with a friendly smile.
What really warmed me up was not the soup. It was her smile that told me she cared me.
And the shopkeeper teaches me about the power（力量）of being kind.
From that day on, I did not let shyness stop me from talking with and being kind to others.
Now I work in a hospital in Africa. I love my work and people around me. I always bring my smile and
kindness to them.

The game of Go is one of the four most popular games in Chinese culture. It is not only a competitive(竞争的)
event of the mind, but also a board game of entertainment(娱乐).
Go was created in China more than 4,000 years ago. Now many people around the world have shown great
interest in it, too. Moreover, Go is still used as a way of cultural exchange among the people in many Eastern and
Western countries today.
The game of Go has many meanings for real life. It represents a square world of round pieces in black and white.
While the board is fixed, the pieces can be placed in millions of different ways, just as life in the real world maytake many turns. The proper placement of each tiny Go piece is the same as how one might solve a difficult
problem in life.
Go carries deeper cultural and competitive meanings. In the game of Go, the players do not wipe out(消灭) each
other’s pieces. Instead, they simply try to win a larger share of space while allowing the other side some space. The
one who makes the other side into a dead corner wins the game.
11．When was the game of Go created in China?

12．What do the players do instead of wiping out each other’s pieces in the game of Go?

A few years ago, my husband and I were on an island for a weekend with our 3- and 4-year-old daughters. As
we went back and thought about what to do next, our girls jumped in and told us exactly what they wanted to do.
“We want to go to the butterfly museum,” said Ariella and Eliana.
As soon as we walked into the main area of the museum, we saw thousands or beautiful butterflies all flapping
(拍打) their coloful wings.
My girls were jumping up and down and I knew we had made the right decision to come to the museum. They
were having so much fun. I turned to our museum tour guide because I was curious and asked, “How long do
butterflies live?” She said, “About ten days.” “What can butterflies do in ten days?” I asked. The guide sopped,
looked at me and said, “They make the world a more beautiful place.” “Wow,” I said, “I never thought about
butterflies like that. Thank you.”
After we said goodbye, I couldn’t stop thinking about what the guide had said. She was right. We all have
something to offer the world with the time we have. When we focus our gifts on taking care of each other every
day, we can make a difference.
Appreciate (感激) the influence you can have on your family, friends, co-workers and neighbors. Like a
butterfly, you have your own way of making the world a little better for everyone.

Answer the questions.（根据短文内容完整回答下列问题）
Have you heard about “Survival (生存) Holidays”? “Survival Holidays” is for children to go into the lonely
place for exciting activities.
Now about 1,100 companies are allowed to take children into the great outdoors without their parents. The
reason why people like “Survival Holidays” is that they think being close to nature is good for children. Many
children in big cities spend all time watching TV and playing computer games, but “Survival Holidays” can change
them a lot.
Is “Survival Holidays” a wonderful idea? Maybe it is. Children need more free time to play. They need to be
left on their own, without adults disturbing (打扰) them. Parents care too much about their children. They like to
see the children being busy with activities that are controlled(控制) by adults, but children don’t know what to do
when they are in danger. Even something like crossing a small river seems to be a hard challenge. Children are notcomfortable with danger. Even small danger like getting their feet wet or falling down seems very terrible to them.
Many people think the survival activities are good for children. Even years later, they will still remember what they
have learned. Some have learned to stay calm in different times. Some have learned how to keep safe. Others have
learned how to work in a team. All these skills will help them a lot in their lives.
34．Is “Survival Holidays” for children or parents?

The proper greeting（问候）will make customers（顾客）feel welcome. Knowing how to greet can help
your work succeed.
Smile when you greet your customers. You want your customers to feel welcome, and that starts with your
body language. Smile, and walk to them in a right way. Everything you do should show “I’m glad you’re here!”.
Remember what customers prefer（更喜欢）. It is good to remember customers’ likes and dislikes. If you
work at a clothes store, remembering a customer’s favorite color will make her feel like you care about her. This is
a great way to let customers come again.
Show customers to the thing they want. Don’t just tell them where to look for what they want. They will
thank you if you lead them to get the thing they want.
Give space after the greeting if necessary. Usually, greet an arriving customer as soon as you see her.
However, if her face looks like “don’t talk to me, leave me alone”, you’d better give her space. But let her know she
can find you if she needs help.

gets a runny nose when you play in the garden. What’s going on? Well, you and your friend may have allergies（过

An allergy is a reaction from your immune system（免疫系统）. The immune system keeps you away from
diseases by fighting germs（细菌）. But when you have allergies, it overreacts（过度反应）and tries to fight
against things like grass, pollen or some foods. This makes your body feel uncomfortable.
Allergies are common around the world. According to the WHO, about 20 percent of the world’s population
suffers from allergies.
Food allergies are one of the most common types. Many children can be allergic to food like milk, eggs and
peanuts. If you are allergic to certain foods, you may get red spots, an upset stomach or even have difficulty
breathing. So far, people haven’t found any good ways to stop food allergies. Just do not eat those foods as much as

The history of bamboo drifting (独竹漂) can date back (追溯) to in the Chishui River area of Guizhou over 2,
000 years ago. During the Qin Dynasty (221—206 BC), the Bozhou area of Zunyi City was famous for its excellent
nanmu. In order to cross the Chishui River, people had to stand on wood to drift down the river. Later, people made
drifting the wood a competition. In the Qing Dynasty (1644—1911), people used bamboo instead of wood because
of its cheap price.
Yang Liu, is an inheritor (继承人) of bamboo drifting. She learned it from her grandmother when she was a
little girl. Yang said the most difficult part of bamboo drifting was keeping the balance (平衡). She fell in the water
several times when she was practicing, but the love for the ancient skill kept Yang going.
Since the age of 7, she has drifted all year round. Now, she is able to do “Chinese qinggong” on the water.
