Around the world， people live in homes of many shapes and sizes． In some countryside， people live together with their family in a huge house with gardens or backyards． On the other hand， the buildings in cities are usually very close together．
A home can be any kind of building﹣ large or small． Some people even have homes on boats， in tents or in caravans that can be moved around． Caravans are mobile homes． They are towed（拖，拉） by either a car or a huge truck． Some of them are holiday homes． We can see many families staying together in these caravans．
In the past， rich and important people built strong castles to keep their families safe． The castles（城堡） were built on hill tops with high walls and some even had moats． Moats were deep and wide ditches（壕沟） filled with water． They made it difficult for enemies to attack．
Today， we have different ways of protecting our homes． Some homes are installed（安装） with video cameras and an alarm system． These will help to alert（向……报警） home owners if someone tries to break in．
Homes are important to all the people． Everyone needs a home where they feel sheltered and safe．

If you ask me what my favorite sport is， my answer is swimming． I started learning how to swim when I was five years old． I have been swimming ever since．
There are many reasons why I love swimming， but I'll just share a few with you． Maybe I can even encourage you to go for a swim．
The first reason I love swimming is that I feel totally relaxed whenever I leave the pool． I love the feeling of floating on the water and feeling almost weightless．
On the other hand． it can also be a competitive sport which raises your heartbeat． It's amazing pushing yourself to the challenge of beating someone else to the finish line． It's great fun racing across the pool as fast as you can！
Another reason that I love swimming is that it has more styles than other sports such as running and walking．It doesn't feel like you're doing the same thing over and over again．
In summer， swimming can be a nice， refreshing （恢复精力的） break! There's nothing better than jumping into the water on a hot summer's day． You can choose to swim in a swimming pool or in the sea．
And finally，it's a life skill which everyone should have．Not only is it good for your health， but you never know when you'll need your ability to swim．

Recently，Sisu broke into a store in North Carolina five times，trying to steal the same purple unicorn toy.But every time he got it，a salesman would find him，take the toy away and put it back on the shelf.When it turned out that Sisu wouldn't give up，the salesman had to lock the door and not let Sisu in，and then called Duplin County Animal Services for help.

Athletics vs． Gardening
The students of Southside School were asked to give their opinions about whether the school should run an athletic program or start a vegetable garden．
|
An athletic program is hatch better than gardening． How are we ever going to win anything at the Inter﹣School Athletics without proper training？ At the moment， we only do athletics for one tam and the teachers train us． We need experts（专家）to teach us things like throwing and high jump． I know lots of kids say they're tot interested in competitions， but that's because they've never won anything． If they got better training and started winning things， they'd soon change their minds． People always say kids don't get enough exercise． Just because you do gardening outdoors doesn't make it exercise， so I don't sec how it matters． Athletics is much better for fitness and lots of kids can have a go at the same tine． I don't think there would be enough jobs for everyone in a garden． In fact， I think a garden is a really bad idea． I don't know why we're even considering it． Liz， Grade 8 |
|
I think a vegetable garden is a great idea． We already do hours of sport， including athletics． And not everyone likes sport． Gardening is a great way to get exercise without worrying about whether you're any good at it， or whether you're going to win． And you really do gel exercise when you garden． There's digging， weeding and watering Even picking things can be hard work ﹣ pumpkins aren't light you know! There are lots of kids around here who don't have gardens so they can't grow things even they want to． If you really want to do more sport， you can join a club． And think about it： What helps you to be good at sport？ You need to eat lots of fruit and vegetables． If we learn to cook all the things we grow， the garden will keep us all fit and healthy and then we'll be better at sport． Sam， Grade 8 |

B． Kids should eat vegetables．

（3）Why does Sam say， "And think about it．： what helps you to be good at sport？"
A． To change the subject．
B． To introduce his next reason．
C． To support Liz's idea．
D． To find an answer to the question．

You think it's " cool " to carry your backpacks and head out to school．But if you don' t know exactly how to choose，load，lift and wear them﹣these all﹣important accessories（配件）can be a pain in the back．Not to mention the neck，head and shoulders．
Backpacks can influence your health．Carrying a heavy load improperly can lead to
poor body position；and even hurt the spinal column（脊柱）．This can cause muscle strain，headaches，back，neck and arm pain．
For example，if it is carried on one shoulder，a heavy backpack forces the muscles and spine to balance the unequal weight．This may increase the possible back problems later in life．
More than 50 percent of young people suffer back pain by their teenage years．Research shows that this could be mainly caused by improper use of backpacks．
Here's some advice to help you carry backpacks comfortably and safely．
Choose the right backpack．Forget leather（皮革）! It looks great，but it's far too heavy．Go for canvas（帆布）．Pick a pack that has two wide，adjustable，comfortable shoulder straps（带子），along with a hip or waist strap，and plenty of pockets．Make sure the pack fits properly and its size is suitable for the wearers body．
Packing it properly．Only put in the pack what is needed for that day．It's a good idea to know what each object weighs．The total weight of the filled pack should be no more than 10 to 15 percent of the wearer's own body weight．Pack heaviest objects close to the body，and place little ones outside， away from the back．
Putting the backpack on．Put the pack on a smooth surface，at waist height．Put on the pack，one shoulder at a time，then adjust（调整）the straps to fit comfortably．Remember when lifting a backpack， or anything，to lift using the arms and legs and to bend at the knee．
The right way to wear a backpack，Both shoulder straps should be used，and adjusted so that the pack fits the body，without hanging to one side．Backpacks should never be worn over just one shoulder．You should be able to move your hands between the backpack and your back．The waist strap should also be worn．

When I was very young，people in our village lived by planting fruit trees.My grandmother always took me to the orchard（果园） on the hill.At that time，they had to carry water from the river at the foot of the hill to halfway up the hill.Even though we worked so hard，the production level of fruit was still low because it was short of water there.
One day，two young men led a group of workers to our village.They learned about the difficulties we faced，and later，canals and other projects began to be built in my village， "Who are they？" I asked. "They are good men from our government，" my grandma replied.
Shortly afterwards，I moved to another city for my junior high school.The only reason I ever came back to my hometown was my grandmother.
One day，my family and I made time to return.We were surprised because everything had changed.The canal ran past every orchard so villagers didn't have to go up and down the hill anymore.The river was now so clean that fish swam happily in it.When we arrived home，my grandma took out some fresh pears and apples.She told us that after the water conservation project（水利工程） was completed a policy（政策） was made to encourage more people to increase the fruit production with clean water in the river.

Don't Let Anxiety Hold You Back from Living Your Dreams
Anxiety is the state of feeling nervous，worried or fearful．When you're anxious，you may feel something bad is going to happen．
When you think of starting a new project or going into a group situation with people you don't know，do you feel butterflies in your stomach？Do you come up with lots of reasons not to do fun but risky things like joining a hiking club or a volunteer organization？ If these happen，it shows that you are probably anxious，and your anxiety will stop you from going after your dreams．Actually，anxiety feeds on avoidance and makes you less confident，while getting started and taking action help your anxiety go down．But where do you begin？
These suggestions below will let you be the master of your anxiety，rather than letting it master you．
◆ Don't wait for your anxiety to go down
Your anxiety won't go down on its own．However，when you take action towards your goals instead of considering what anxiety you have，you will build self﹣efficacy（自我效能）little by little﹣you begin to see yourself as someone who can take action and be successful even when you're feeling anxious．
◆ Set a realistic goal that makes sense for you
We all have different personalities and preferences．We don't all want to be lawyers，have hundreds of friends，or run marathons．Whatever you want，just figure out what is the simplest thing you can do to get started．Set your goal specifically，for example，"walk for 20 minutes three times next week"．You can't climb a mountain all at once and you're more likely to achieve your goal with inside motivation（动机）than when you're just trying to please others．
◆ Trust the process（过程）
Faith（信仰）is the first step to take action．Even if you don't have faith to begin with，faith will come if you just take that first step．The more you take action，the more likely you are to have some successes and begin to trust the process．I often start writing a blog post not knowing exactly what I 'm going to write．Now I've understood that if I share messages with my readers sincerely，then the content will appear naturally and anxiety will reduce slowly．
◆ …
（1）When you"feel butterflies in your stomach"，you may feel ．
A．successful
B．humorous
C．lonely
D．fearful
（2）Which situation shows that you may feel anxious？
A．Gettig into a group situation with your friends．
B．Making an excuse for not doing a risky activity．
C．Being willing to work as a community volunteer．
D．Feeling confident to join the school hiking club．
（3）From the passage we know that ．
A．Avoidance makes anxiety stronger and stronger
B．Anxiety can help you build self﹣efficacy gradually
C．You should achieve your goal by pleasing others
D．Faith won't come even if you begin to take action
（4）What is the fourth suggestion probably about？
A．Anxiety will prevent you from living your dream．
B．Anxiety will make you worry about bad situations．
C．You should cheer for yourself to control anxiety．
D．You should set a meaningful goal to get started．

Dear Mr. Scott， I expect you may be slightly surprised to receive a letter from your next﹣door neighbor， but I have to raise a theme that it will be easier for me to discuss in writing． You may have noticed that I have a line of apple trees running along the fence（栅栏）that separates our two gardens． You may also have felt happy when you see your two children sitting on your grass by the fence． And you may also have noticed that my apple trees bend over the fence and seem to look down at your children with interest． It is only natural that your children should sometimes seem to return that interest． And it is quite legal（合法的）for them to show that interest by picking all the apples that hang over on your side of the fence． But to tell you the truth， Mr. Scott， I am tired of seeing your children， day after day， destroy the branches of every one of my apple trees． And it seems that a war has been fought on one side of my apple trees． Besides， I am more tired of waking up on these fine autumn mornings to find even the apples on MY side of the fence much less in number． I know this too is the work of your children， since last night I was woken at midnight by the noise they were making when climbing one of my trees， and （as they may have told you） I drove them away． Yours sincerely， Becky Aldrin |

"Life's a long，long journey." so we are told，and most of us would not set off on a journey，even a short one，without some ideas of where we wanted to go.Yet many people travel on life's journey with no sense of direction at all.
Setting personal goals can give your life a sense of direction.Goal setting is used by top sports players，successful business people and achievers in all fields.Before you set personal goals，think about what you want to achieve with your life.
Try to set goals in some of the following categories （类别）：
Education - Will you achieve the educational goals after finishing high school？Are you still growing and learning？
Family - What kind of relationship do you want with your parents and other family members？
Creative - Do you want to achieve any artistic goals？
Career - What job do you want to take when you grow up？What do you need to make your dream come true？
Public Service - Do you want to make the world a better place？
Physical - Are you fit enough to do the things you want to do？
Pleasure - How do you want to enjoy yourself？
To help make the process more manageable，divide your goals into smaller tasks.For example，if you want to reach a main goal in five years，set a three﹣year goal，a one﹣year goal，a three﹣month goal and a one﹣month goal.Then create a daily To﹣Do List of things that you should do today.When a goal is achieved，take the time to enjoy your success.This helps you build the self﹣confidence.
Remember，your goals can be changed as time goes on.But be sure your goals are the things you hope to achieve，not what your parents，family or teachers want.

"I have no special talent.I'm only passionately curious. " This famous quote from Albert Einstein might tell the reason for his success.When Newton discovered gravity，and when Thomas Edison invented the light bulb，their curiosity was greatly satisfied.If they hadn't been curious，what a loss for humans!
There is a common truth that intellectual curiosity （求知欲）contributes to school performance more than intelligence.Some studies also show there are benefits of curiosity in improving the long ﹣ term level of learning and memory，and a lot of positive results are connected with curiosity.
It has been known that both animals and humans are willing to take a risk to satisfy their curiosity despite knowing that the result will remain unchanged.Despite there being different views on the reason for curiosity，most experts reach an agreement that like the way the stomach looks for food，our brain looks for knowledge.People and animals are eager to know things because getting that information means a reward.
An interesting thing is that our brain will release a pleasure﹣related chemical when it has been given new information ，making seeking information much like eating — another pleasant activity.Researchers newly found that increasing the release of the chemical greatly increased the curiosity in animals.However，how exactly the chemical plays a role still remains a mystery.
Considering the present level of research on curiosity and the driving force of curiosity，including scientific curiosity，more research should be carried on in this field.It's safe to say that curiosity itself will help uncover curiosity.And remember even though the idiom says "Curiosity kills the cat"，it ends with satisfaction bringing it back.
（1）What do the examples mentioned in Paragraph 1 intend to tell us？
A.The importance of being curious.
B.The advice from successful people.
C.The reason why humans keep curious.
D.The relationship between curiosity and efforts.
（2）What can we learn about intellectual curiosity from Paragraph 2？
A.It often requires long﹣term training.
B.It helps people develop a positive lifestyle.
C.Students with it learn better than those smart ones.
D.Students born smart often have stronger intellectual curiosity.
（3）Which of the following ideas is generally accepted about curiosity？
A.Human curiosity comes when they want to change results.
B.It is natural and common among humans and animals.
C.It is often related to some adventurous activities.
D.Animals' curiosity appears with hunger.
（4）What does the author mean in the last paragraph？
A.Curiosity takes many different forms.
B.People may make mistakes because of strong curiosity.
C.Curiosity makes people dissatisfied with their present situations.
D.People should do more research on curiosity with some curiosity.
