He wrote a seven-page（页）paper. He wanted to have a horse farm one day. He even drew a picture of a horse farm in the paper.The next day he handed it in to his teacher. Two days later, he got his paper back. On the front page was a large red “F” with the words “See me after class”. So the boy did and asked his teacher, “Why did I get an F?” The teacher said, “This dream will not come true for a young boy like you. You need a lot of money to own a horse farm. You have to buy the land. You have to pay for a lot of things. There is no way you could ever do it.” Then the teacher added, “If you write this paper again with a simpler dream, I will give you a good grade.” After school he thought hard about it. At last, he decided to hand in the same paper, making no changes at all. He said to the teacher, “You can keep the F and Ill keep my dream.”Many years later, Monty had his own large horse farm. His dream came true.So dont let anyone take away your dreams. Follow your dreams, no matter what they are.26 .

A naughty boy Mencius and his family lived next to the cemetery(墓地) . Mencius liked to hold funerals(葬礼) just like people around. His mother took him and they moved to a market. Then Mencius and his neighbors children learned to buy and sell meat. Finally, they moved again and lived next to a school. In this neighborhood, people treated each other politely. The mother of Mencius thought that it was the right living place for her son.The story tells us the importance of people around us. For students, they can be role models. In a study, I interviewed some students at Bingham High School. These teens had lots of opinions about role models.Teens need role models to provide directions for them. Jeff Pratt said, “Having a role model helps you decide where you want to go with your life.” A role model shows what a teens life could be like in the future.“Role models are people you admire, and those people can help make you be a good person.” This is Spencer Parks opinion of what role models are and why it is important to have them.“A role model is someone to look up to and try to learn good qualities from,” said Natalie Bean. When teens were asked “What is a role model like?” , the list included words such as encouraging, inspiring, strong-willed, honest, ready to stand up for what they believe in, helpful, easy to talk to, talented and cheerful. Teens want to learn from their role models how to succeed and how to carry on after failure.Robbie Jenkins said, “Good role models are people that stand up for what is right and good. Role models encourage and inspire others.” Heidi Woolley said, “A good role model makes a teen do the best in school and life, and make much progress. Then he will have a right opinion of his own abilities and accept himself gradually. In this way, role models help build up a teens self-esteem.”“The role models teens need are not the ones that appear in the media.” said Natalie Bean.My study also shows students agree with that a true role model is not the person with the best job title, the greatest responsibility, or the greatest fame(名望). Anyone who inspires a child to achieve dreams in life can be a good role model.30 . The writer uses the story in Paragraph 1 to show that_.Apeople should have good habitsBpeople are easily influenced by othersCpeople are able to choose good neighboursDpeople know how to choose a living place31 .

Teens want to learn_from their role models.Ahow to be a directorBhow to choose a right living placeChow to succeed and how to carry on after failureDhow to do the best in school33 . The underlined word “self-esteem” in the passage means “_” .Aself-respectBself-controlCself-praiseDself-support34 . What is the main idea of this passage?ATo know what students role models do.BTo tell how a teen learns from a role model.CTo find out students ways to be a role model.DTo share ideas of some teens about role models.Every year on 15th October, over 200 million people around the world take part in Global Handwashing Day. But why do we have a day for something we do all the time? Well, research shows that not enough people often wash their hands with soap. Experts believe that this leads to the deaths of millions of people every year.Sidibe, a public health expert says soap is the most beautiful invention in public health. Washing your hands with soap can have a huge impact on reducing (减少) the spread of diseases. Handwashing with soap prevents babies from getting ill and keeps children healthy and in school.However, washing hands with soap does not happen as often as you might think. This is partly because there arent enough resources (资源) in poorer countries, but its also because for many people, handwashing is simply not part of their everyday life. Its not easy to get people to change habits they learned in early childhood - but this is what Global Handwashing Day wants to do.In 2008, the Indian cricket team joined around 100 million Indian schoolchildren in washing their hands to promote (促进) the first ever Global Handwashing Day. Every year since then, many different events have been held around the world. In 2014. Global Handwashing Day was used in the fight against Ebola, a very serious disease, with events held in affected (受感染的) African countries.Today, local and national leaders continue to use the day to spread the message about the importance of clean hands. The hope is that handwashing becomes a necessary part of peoples lives and improves the health of millions around the world.35 . Who started Global Handwashing Day?APublic health experts.BThe Indians.CAfrican schoolchildren.DGovernment leaders.36 . What does the underlined word impact mean?ADanger.BInfluence.CBackground.DProblem.37 . Whats the main idea of the last paragraph?AWashing hands with soap is good for public health.BWashing hands with soap doesnt become part of peoples lives.CPeople are holding many different events to fight against diseases.DPeople all over the world are encouraged to wash hands with soap.38 .
