Mrs. Lane was living alone in a city in Texas, US. The woman in her 70s could do a lot of housework herself. However, she was too old to mow（修剪）her lawn（草坪）. Then a big trouble found her. She let the grass grow over 18 inches high and it broke the law in her city. As a result, she was in danger of paying lots of money or even going to prison!

Luckily, her neighbours, the Adams brothers, heard the news about her on TV. They decided to do something to help. “We haven't met her yet, but she's 75 years old and she needs some help, “said Sam Adams, one of the boys. “That's the least we could do.”

When Mrs Lane saw what her neighbours did for her, she was surprised and moved to tears（感動得落淚）. “I cannot believe this, “she said. “They were so kind to spend two hours helping me and I didn't even know their names. “As for the Adams brothers, they said they would always be ready to help her.

Do you like animals? Do you want to work with them? If your answer is “yes”, you might be interested in the job of a vet.

A vet is an animal doctor. There are over 60, 000 vets in the US. Some take care of pets like dogs, cats and birds. Some care for farm animals like horses and cows. Some work in zoos and they work with elephants, tigers, lions, pandas and so on.

It's difficult to become a vet in the US. Besides the love for animals, one has to study really hard. He must first finish college, and then go to the veterinary(獸醫(yī)的)school for four years’ study. Working as a vet is not easy, either. They often work long hours, but many vets say that their job is exciting and fun.

Dear Ms. Zhang,

He uses it for 【2】(he)work, and I can only use it for my homework. The reason is that he thinks something will go wrong if I play【3】(game)on it.

However, when I【6】(start)the computer again to check if everything was OK, some of my dad's documents were missing. Then, when my dad used the computer last night, he was 【7】(real) angry. He could no longer find the important documents anywhere.

I did not tell him about【8】(冠詞)computer game because I did not want him to be angry【9】(介詞)me. Now I feel terrible. I am not sure whether a computer repair 【10】(shop)can get the documents back. Should I tell him about the computer game?

Should I pay to repair it?

Khan is now doing a one-year research program at the Beijing Academy of Agriculture and Forestry Sciences. The program is sponsored by the Chinese Ministry of Science and Technology and many young talented scientists who come from collaborating countries, such as Pakistan, are given opportunities to work in China.

Although this is his first visit to China, Khan says he is well-informed of the long friendship between China and Pakistan. He is impressed most by the cooperation (合作) in education between China and Pakistan. especially since the start-up of the Belt and Road Initiative (“一帶一路”建設(shè)) in 2013.

“Many students from my university and my city have visited China and completed their higher education here. ” he says, adding that he has met with many of them.

“I hear news about China on television and read about it in print media, so I know of the rapid development of China in recent decades. ”

Khan says the Belt and Road Initiative will have a very positive effect on the world.

“I hope that I can stay in China to participate in such cooperation projects. ” he says. Khan says life in Beijing is much easier than he’d expected, thanks to the convenient（便利的）public transportation and restaurants offering food for Muslims（穆斯林）. This encouraged him to bring his family to live with him a couple of months ago.

He says that language is the only challenge for them so far. However, he finds no problem talking with his Chinese colleagues, many of whom speak good English. He also enjoys the relaxing working environment and has a very good relationship with his co-workers.

One morning, I ran to the garden, and said to the old Scotsman who worked there. “Today I am going up the mountain for berries. ”

“No, no, Missey, not today. ” he said , “It will rain. ”

“No, it will not rain. ” I said, “The sun is up. The cook says it will be fine. The glass in the hall does not say rain. ”

“Tuts, tuts. ” said the old man, “I care for no suns, or cooks, or glasses. The pimpernel (海綠) says it will rain, and so it will rain. Flowers, Missey, always tell the truth. When they say rain, go and get your umbrella.”

Sure enough, by noon the rain was pouring down. After that, I looked with great respect at the tiny flower, sometimes brickred, sometimes blue, which could tell about the weather. But the pimpernel is not the only plant that is a weather prophet.

If you go into the garden, and find the African marigolds shut after seven o’clock in the morning, you may be pretty sure that there will be a rainy day. There is a little single marigold which shuts up in a hurry if the sky becomes clouded. It is called the “rainy-marigold”.

Most plants which we call “weather prophets” shut up for rain. But some plants open for rain. The cause of the opening and closing is probably the difference in light. Most likely these plants shut their flowers because there is too little light.

But you know there are some plants which become smaller in a strong light and love the shade. You will find that most shade-loving plants, as the verbenas, do not close for rain.

Lilies, tulips and other flowers that love the sun shut for rain. Tulips are careful not to open their cups very wide in the morning if it is likely to rain. The roses make no change. They seem not to fear wet.

On the whole, you may be pretty sure, if you go into your garden, and find many flowers-as tulips, marigolds and morning glories-shut, it will be a stormy day, unfit for picnics or long walks.

A. the morning glories and lilies do not shut

B. the African marigolds shut after 7:00 a. m.

C. die pimpernels open wide in the daytime

D. the roses and tulips shut in the sunshine

【3】What do we know from the passage?

A. The flowers have four ways to help people to get information about weather.

B. The glass in the hall has magic for the writer’s family to know about weather.

C. We can know about weather by keeping many roses at home or in the garden.

D. Missey will probably know about weather by watching flowers from now on.

【4】The passage is mainly about .

A. watching flowers carefully before going out

B. learning to watch flowers from the old Scotsman

C. the importance of growing flowers in the garden

D. the relationship between some flowers and weather

Thank you for Principal Xu, all the teachers and most importantly, the class of 2019. If I can’t make my speech fantastic, I will at least try to make it short.

It’s been nearly 40 years since I became a member of the navy. You may be wondering how I have won so many honors as a commander-in-chief. In fact, it all began from the half a_____basic training, which I will never forget, The training included midnight swims in the cold water, days without _____and long painful runs in the soft sand, I always felt cold, wet, sleepy and painful.

The training also needed to find those who could_____in an environment of stress, mess, failure and hardships. To me, the basic training was a lifetime of challenges that lasted six months. And today, I’d like to talk about one little thing, which I think is one of the most important points leading to great______.

Every morning in the training, my instructors(教官) would______in our rooms. The first thing they did was to________our beds. The corners would be square if we did it right. The covers would be pulled tight, and the pillow would be centered just under the headboard.

It was a(n) _____task. But every morning we were required to make our beds_____. It seemed a little funny, but the wisdom of this simple act has been proved to me many times over.

If you make your bed every morning, you will have completed the_______task of the day. It will bring you a small sense of success, and it will______you to do another task, and another and another. And by the end of the day, one task completed will have_______into many tasks completed. Making your bed will prove the fact. If you can’t do the little things right, you will______be able to do the big things right.

_____the world can happen anywhere and anyone can do it. I can make sure that it doesn’t matter whether I ever_____ a day in uniform. Even now, I still start my day with making the bed to perfection. So if you have an awful day by accident, you will come home to a bed that is made-that you made-and a made bed gives you encouragement that tomorrow will be better.

In general, if you want to change the world, ____off by making your bed. I hope all of you will have a brighter future!
