village. For him, life was without waves.
One day, he was delivering mail as usual. When he looked up in the sky, he suddenly lost hisbalance. It was a little stone that tripped him up ( 绊倒). He observed the stone that had
embarrassed (难堪) him, finding it strange but beautiful. In his eyes, this stone was like a lost
jewel (宝石) covered with dust. The postman then placed the stone in his bag carefully. Because
of this stone's arrival, his day was lightened. He suddenly had a bold thought --- I can build a
castle with such beautiful stones. How magnificent it will be!
His ordinary life started to be different since then. He still delivered mail, but he collected every
stone he could find along the way. All those dusty stones, in his eyes, glittered like diamonds.
Gradually, his small bag couldn't hold his stones any more and he needed to use a wheelbarrow
to carry them. People didn't understand what happened when they saw the postman delivering
letters with a wheelbarrow full of stones.
After collecting enough stones, he started to build his castle. During the daytime, he passed
along the dreams of others; and during the nighttime, he built his own dream. No one was willing
to join in. But the postman was unmoved, still happily building his castle. Because he knew, the
dream and the castle only belonged to him.
After 20 years of working day and night, the postman's dream castle was finally completed. It
was a magnificent castle just as he had imagined. It was a miracle arising from the ordinary.
This is a real story. The postman's name is Xue Waller. The stone castle has become a famous

Focus on (关注) yourself
Meng Meihui, 14, from Dongying, Shandong, loved reading certain pieces of work. But she
paid particular attention to her classmate's every composition, just to find her faults.
"Everyone said she was better at writing than me. I didn't believe it. I wanted to beat her," Mengsaid. Meng was caught by the green-eyed monster -jealousy (妒忌).
Jealousy is 75 among students. Most people may feel a little bit unhappy when others are
better than them. it's natural. However, if students don't change their mindset (思维方式) and deal
with it well, jealousy can bring out many problems.
Su Lulu, 14, from Xiamen, Fujian said those who are too jealous of others might lose 76
easily. "Few people like those who always try to find faults in others," Su said. "A popular student
should be open-minded."
Besides affecting students' interpersonal (人际间的) relationships, jealousy may also limit
students' development.
Meng said that during that time, she paid too much attention to her competitor(竞争者) and
77 to improve herself. "It was tiring and useless," she said.
Luckily, Meng 78 realized the problem. She stopped her silly behavior and focused on her
own progress.
Wang Xiao, a psychology (心理学) teacher at Huangshi Foreign Language School, Hubei,
agreed with Meng's practice. Wang said the best way to deal with jealousy is to turn it into
motivation (动力).
" 79 those who are better than you and focus on yourself," Wang said. "It's more important to
improve yourself than to be better than others."
Wang also suggested that students be confident about themselves. "Everyone has their
advantages and disadvantages. Don't 80 your disadvantages with others' advantages," he said.
75. A) unusual B) perfect C) common D) useful
76. A) friends B) jobs C) weight D) lives
77. A) happened B) forgot C) promised D) started
78. A) soon B) almost C) never D) still
79. A) Compete with B) Dream of C) Learn from D) Depend on
80. A) talk B) share C) help D) compare
C) Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words（在短文的空格内填入适当的词，
使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给):（14分）
Opening new doors
In a famous story, a young boy called Ali Baba says "Open Sesame" and a door to treasures
is opened before him. Ma Yun drew inspiration (灵感) from this and founded Alibaba.com.
Over 14 years, Alibaba.com has become China's largest e-commerce (电子商务) website. E-
commerce is the a 81 of buying and selling goods and services and doing other business using a
computer and the Internet. However, the founder chose to leave and to discover new areas of
business. On May 28, Ma became chairman of Cainiao Network Technology Co. Ltd. The
company will set up China Smart Logistics (物流) Network. Its goal is to deliver packages to
people anywhere in the country w 82 24 hours.
The 48-year-old businessman, who is short and thin and often wears oversized suits, always had
the courage to dream big and try new things.
Ma got the idea of starting a business career in 1995. He was then working for a US trading
company as a translator, when he was introduced to the Internet. He s 83 the word " beer" and
found out that no data (数据) came up about Chinese products.
Ma had an idea: why not build a large Internet market to connect consumers and companies
from all over the world and do business o 84 ?That is how Alibaba began. His company grew quickly. But that doesn't mean e 85 went
well. Alibaba had a difficult time in 2000, when many Internet companies failed. Finally Ma was
successful because he m 86 to attract investment (投资) in his company.
But there is a deeper r 87 for Ma's success: his attitude. "You deserve to live your dream,"
he said. "Everyone thought I was daydreaming when I started. But the most important thing is that
we believed in our dream from day one, to today and tomorrow. Of course we made many
mistakes, but we never gave up hope."

What is it like being a film star? What's it like in front of the camera? Students from
Steamboat Springs Middle School in the Us could tell you exactly what it's like. They recently got
a taste of the life of a star.
A local movie company wanted to produce a film. All the actors in this film were to be students.
Fourteen students were chosen from the school, The film, called Ruby vs Wolfgang, was based on
the story of Little Red Riding Hood (小红帽). It came with a twist (改变), however - the story was
told from the perspective (看法) of the wolf.
Zoe Walsh, a seventh - grader, signed up to do behind-the-scenes work. But she soon found
herself in front of the camera instead. She played a strange middle school student in the film.
"It's just fun," she told the Steamboat Today. "Just pretending that you're someone else."
But there were also difficulties. It was very cold during shooting. Students had to put up with
snow and icy wind.
Lack (缺乏) of experience was another problem. The director Michael Staley said he tried to
"help each student bring out the wolf- or Whatever animal they representing - in themselves".
Erus Harrington, an eighth - grader, said he played a "nice, silly British guy". He learned the
British accent (口音) all at home.
"I just kind of taught myself how to do it by watching videos," he said "It makes me feel
good after I do it because I'm proud of myself."
The students will watch themselves on the big screen for the first time during the film
festival at a local high school in May.
"I'm probably going to laugh at myself," said Zach, the brother of Zoe.

March 21 is World Sleep Day. How's your sleep recently? An official survey asked 8,200
people in China about their sleep. More than 36 percent of them say they often sleep badly. The
study also finds that many students have only 5 hours of sleep a day. According to the US
scientists, teenagers need 8.5 to 9 hours of sleep every night.
What reduces their sleeping time? Homework. Also, school starts early in the morning. But bad
sleeping habits are still important reasons.
Do you like to have a look at your mobile phone before going to bed? The survey finds that 60
percent of people check their phones before they sleep. They read news, check their WeChat (微

and think slowly.
We can't change our school time. But there are still ways to get better sleep. Watch less TV.
Leave your mobile phone and computer on your desk. Stay away from soda, coffee and tea at
night. They make it hard to fall asleep.

To most of us, home is the safest and warmest place in the world. But Grade 7 students at
Shanghai International School are thinking about ways to run away from home as quickly as
possible.
It was a special homework. The teachers asked students to draw maps of their homes to learn
about how to escape from home in the event of a fire.
The project meant a lot to Shen Yechen.
At the age of 12, he once played with fire using toothpicks and almost burnt their house down.
Since then, the fire has continued to burn in his mind. By drawing the map, Shen said he had
largely overcome the fear.
Most students only designed one route to run away from home, but Shen made three.
Shen and his parents lived on the second floor. At first he only thought of walking down the
stairs. But later he thought of air-conditioner. Sometimes he found his father climbed down
outdoor air-conditioner units to get the clothes instead of walking down the stairs. Besides that, it
was also a good idea to climb down the window with a rope.
