I was born with a problem in my backbone and mobility(行走能力）was a big challenge, but thanks to my teachers and friends, my school life was excellent.My friends and I used to sit together and have lots of fun. Whenever we got a free period, we used to start shouting or play games. I would take part in all competitions, such as poetry writing, story writing and painting and all activities like Teachers Day or anybodys birthday and had much fun.My English teacher was very tall. The moment she would enter the class, we would all sit quiet and open the books. She would encourage me by giving me important assignments and also morning news to read during the assembly. She would come down and hear my English debate(辩论), which made me participate in all debate competitions.The same was true of my biology and science teacher. She was very nice and sweet. She would always give me extra information on the biology project. I could not go to the lab for the practicals (lessons or exams in science, cooking etc. in which you have to do or make something yourself rather than write or read about it), so she would bring the lab down and help me with the biology and science practicals and would give me excellent marks.My friends made me monitor and the naughty boys listen to me. My friends used to help me with my notes if I was absent. My teachers always gave me important project work and I felt proud when they patted me on the back after I finished it quickly and correctly.I was never shouted at or made fun of or scolded(批评) by any of my friends and teachers. Today I saw the terrible punishments given to students on television news. I felt very sad.I really want to express my love and thanks to all my wonderful teachers and friends, without whom my school life would not have been so excellent and unforgettable.

Thats according to a 2017 Harris Poll. Many people use the five-second rule. The rule says that fallen food is safe to eat if it has been on the floor for less than five seconds. Can people really use the five-second rule to save a dropped sandwich? Or should they throw it and make a fresh one?Donald Schaffner is a professor of food science. His study shows that the five-second rule should not always be used. In his 2016 report, he says its not wise to eat dropped wet food. The wet food takes in bacteria (细菌 ) as soon as it falls. Bacteria dont have legs, they move with the moisture, Schaffner says. The wetter the food is, the more bacteria it soaks up(吸收) .Anthony Hilton studied the five-second rule too. He is a professor of Life and Health Sciences.Hilton found that a dry food on the floor collects fewer bacteria than a wet food. Hilton also found that carpeted floors pass fewer bacteria than wood floors. Still, one should be careful. Food that is on the floor is never completely risk-free to eat, he says. But if you drop a dry food in your house, its usually okay if you pick it up very quickly. Most clean homes dont have bad bacteria.Should you eat food that was dropped on the kitchen counter? Dr. Steven Dowshen is a doctor for children. He says that floors are not the only place that can make food unsafe to eat. Kitchen counters can contain more harmful bacteria, Dowshen told TFK. This is because raw foods sometimes have bad bacteria called salmonella. These raw foods can be on kitchen counters. If people eat food off a surface that has salmonella, they can get very sick, says Dowshen.With the five-second rule, the type of food and the place where it falls matter. So perhaps use this e instead: When in doubt, throw it out.（1）Whats Donald Schaffners opinion about the five-second rule? A . The five-second rule should always be used.B . The drier the food is, the more bacteria it takes in.C . Its a good choice to eat the dropped wet food.D . The minute the wet food falls, it soaks up bacteria.（2）The underlined word risk-free probably means “ ”. A . deliciousB . dangerousC . safeD . easy（3）What can you infer from the passage? A . People should not eat a dropped sandwich on any places.B . People cannot eat food that is on the floor because of salmonella.C . People need to consider the type of the dropped food before eating.D . People should be careful about the food dropped on the kitchen counter.（4）Whats the writers purpose of writing the passage? A . To introduce the five-second rule to people.B . To encourage people to use the five-second rule.C . To show different peoples opinions about the five-second rule.D . To advise people to think twice before using the five-second rule.5. （8分）根据材料内容，选择正确答案。BIt was only with her death that Nurse Edith Cavell became known, but her story became one of the great epics (ASF) of the First World War.

She said at the end her only regret was that she could not have done more than she did.Edith Cavell was killed by several German soldiers on October 12, 1915 after an Americans request to spare her life had been rejected.

The following will help you become healthier and keep perfect shape.Eat properly. A healthy diet is very important for everybody. Breakfast is the most important meal in a day. Doctors suggest that students breakfast should include fruit, eggs, milk, rice or noodles, because these can offer them necessary energy, help them listen carefully in class and keep them healthy. Eat enough for lunch and little for supper. But remember that too much sugar is bad for your teeth and blood. You shouldnt have too many sweet snacks and desserts in your diet, even though such food tastes delicious.Keep off germs(病菌). Daily tooth cleaning reduces the amount of germs which will spread diseases. Germs in the mouth are likely to enter the blood and cause illness, even heart disease. Even if you re not sick, always remember to cough or sneeze into your arms instead of your hands because hands can spread germs to others when you touch something else. Besides, washing hands is necessary after going to the toilet or before having a meal. And youd better rub both hands while washing them.Exercise regularly. Regular exercise can improve your moods and balance. Whats more, its good for bones. There are many forms of exercise: walking or running for about 30 minutes a day playing ball games twice or three times a week, swimming or dancing often. You can choose your favorite to practise regularly. You will not only feel energetic(精力充沛的) but also think better after doing exercise.Stay connected（联系）.
