Both my wife and I are running lovers. I usually run on the track in my neighbourhood. Most people walk on
the track, so I am faster than them. My speed seems amazing to the walkers, and I often pass by them twenty or
more times around the track. This makes me feel proud.
One day, a short man came. He didn’t look like much of a runner. I saw him get out of the ear and warm up
before running when I passed by two walkers. He started running a few metres ahead of me. He was fast but I sped
up and managed to catch up with him. I had someone to compete with. But after a lap (圈), I fell behind him and
had great difficulty in breathing. After two laps, my foot began to hurt, so I had to slow down and began to run at
my usual speed. This time I could breathe easily without sounding like I had a lung disease (肺病) and the pain in
my foot went away. In a very short time, he was far ahead. He was too fast for me to follow. I learned several
lessons. There will always be slower and faster ones. Some have natural talent, and some have trained harder.
Don’t judge (判断) the capacity of a person by how he or she looks.
The point is that we each have our own speed. When we are trying to keep up, we often end up hurting
ourselves and being out of breath. Slow down or speed up but run your race to your best. Don’t run fast when you
should be running slowly. Don’t run at all when you should be walking. Don’t walk when you should be running.

A．He must be an amazing runner. B．He was too proud of himself.
C．He couldn’t be good at running. D．He could be an experienced driver.
30．What happened to the writer when he slowed down?
A．His foot didn’t hurt any more. B．His breath became much heavier.
C．He felt angry for falling behind. D．He started to have a lung disease.

A．Hobby. B．Advantage. C．Personality. D．Ability.

Human beings are amazing creatures. We have walked on the moon, cured diseases, and built many
structures, from the ancient Great Wall to modern buildings. So what is it that makes us so special? The answer is
our brains. The human brain is a fantastic body part that controls everything from your breathing to your memories
and imagination. Below are several more surprising facts about this natural supercomputer. The brain does not fully
grow until age 25.
Scientists have discovered that while most areas of the brain finish forming before we leave high school, the
areas that deal with planning and reasoning aren’t fully grown until one’s 20s. What’s more, after the age of 24, the
brain actually starts going into a slow drop, making our 20s the time when our brains are truly at their top!
Three-quarters of the brain is water.
As a result, our brain is always in great need of water, which is one reason why it’s important to drink lots of
water. The brain’s large water content also affects its texture (质地), which is similar to puddings.
Our brains aren’t the biggest, though they are the brightest.
We often think that a bigger brain equals a better brain. And while humans do have large brains, ours aren’t
the largest in the animal world. Besides, we don’t even have the largest brains among humans. Neanderthals (穴居
人) —though now disappeared—had brains that were actually 10 percent larger than ours. This doesn’t mean they
were smarter than us, though. Brain size is important, but the brain’s structure is even more so. Indeed, the human
brain deals with a lot of hard work in a small space.
Of course, these aren’t the only interesting things about the brain. In fact, our brains still have a lot of secrets
for scientists to find out.
Left hemisphere (半球）
Right hemisphere
The left hemisphere mainly works for
The right hemisphere helps to understand
abstract (抽象) thinking, while also
space relationships, process pictures, and

Have you ever watched amazing drone (无人机) light shows? They’re really cool to watch! These shows
often happen during big events like the Olympics or national celebrations. People really love them.
You might be wondering how these shows work. Well, they use a lot of drones with bright lights on them.
First, someone programs a computer to tell the drones what to do. Then, that program goes to each drone. After
that, people on the ground use the computer to make the drones move. When everything is ready, the show starts.
All the drones fly up at the same time and move in the sky in a beautiful way.
The number of drones can make different effects. For example, some shapes need more drones than others.
Simple shapes need fewer drones, and more complicated (复杂的) shapes need more. The number of the viewers
(观众) and how far away they are also decide how many drones are needed so everyone can see the show well.
Even though these drone light shows are really cool, there are still ways to make them better. New tools and
technology can help make the shows even more amazing. Also, the people who design the shows are trying to find
new ways to make them even better.

Many friendships go through tough times, but a difficult fight may leave your relationship beyond repair.
However, if you really care about this person, it will be worth the effort to fix a broken friendship. 51
Be the first one to reach out. If you aren’t talking to each other, someone will have to make the first move.

Really listen and don’t cut in. This way, you both get to tell your side of the story and get everything out on the
table.

gotten to this point. 54 ” If you did something wrong, apologize to them frankly. If they apologize to you,

For many Chinese people, the Lantern Festival, which fell on Feb.15, 2022, marks an end to two weeks of the
Lunar (农历) New Year. For folk artist Wang De, it is also the busiest, best time for him to show his craft (手艺)
creating molten (熔化的) iron fireworks.
Wang, who is a blacksmith (铁匠) of the 500-year-old art of dashuhua, which means “creating tree flowers”,
lives in Yuxian County in the city of Zhangjiakou, North China’s Hebei Province.
公众号：初中英语助手To create molten iron fireworks, scrap iron (铁屑) is melted to 1,600℃ and thrown against a cold wall to
blinding effect.
Wang, 58, and his assistants put on over a dozen dashuhua shows for local people and tourists as part of the
Spring Festival activities each year. The folk artist hopes the tradition can bring more visitors to his hometown of
Zhangjiakou, which caught international attention.
Dashuhua is a traditional form of fireworks show that takes place during certain festivals. In ancient times, this
was a show that only those people with wealth and high social positions could afford. There are only four people
left in China who have mastered (掌握) the ancient practice, and three of them are not young, according to local
media reports.
Because of the risk of the show, it’s easy for dashuhua artists to get hurt when they are giving shows. And the
high-risk tradition is still only kept for the brave. During a show a few years ago, Wang got serious burns on his leg
and it took two months to recover (恢复).
Both Wang’s father and grandfather were blacksmiths. “I learned the craft from my father. When I was young,
I thought it was exciting. But years later I also felt it was my duty (责任) to pass it on to the next generation (代),”
he says.
56．What does dashuhua mean?
57．During which festival do Wang and his assistants give dashuhua shows every year?
58．Who could afford dashuhua shows in ancient times?
