Everyone has a beautiful memory about school which is hard to forget．Among many things，relationships are the hardest to leave behind．Some schools try to stop students'puppy love in different ways．Anything about"love"relationship is not allowed．For example，a middle school in Fu'an，Fujian Province forbids（禁止） boys and girls to sit together for meals and forbids boys to look at girls for a long time；a middle school in Luohe，Henan Province sets rules that boys and girls should meet in bright places with at least 5 other classmates，and if they meet in private they will be asked to go home with parents for more than a week and even advised to leave school，a middle school in Jinan，Shandong Province forbids everyone to send food and gifts to or receive them from the opposite sex（异性）．It also forbids students to help the opposite sex with bags and coats and requires"44cm"distance between boys and girls．
Some students are not satisfied with such rules．"Why should we have strict places for different sexes to eat？It's not using bathrooms!"Some people who care about the intelligence development of the students say that they should be more creative with fewer rules．For this，I'd like to say that middle school students are going through puberty（青春期）．It's normal for them to have some feelings for the opposite sex．Schools should provide correct guidance and education instead of giving simple and cruel rules and asking the students to follow．
52．The first paragraph mainly tells us about ．
A．a beautiful memory of school to leave behind．

Some parents are used to doing almost everything for their children． They see their older children as babies all the time! It can be a very common problem in China， because most parents only have one child in China． Some parents care so much about the safety of their children that they are afraid to let them go anywhere or do anything by themselves． So their children fail to learn social skills and become more dependent（依赖的）on them!
In fact， no children really enjoy being looked after by their parents all the time． No parents would be happy knowing that． Because of too much care， their children don't know anything about the world． Children need their own time to grow into adults and to learn how to deal with problems． Too much care damages their fun when they are growing up． And when suddenly they can't depend on their parents， these children will be in a big trouble!
It's nice that parents show their care to their children． It's nice that children know that their parents' care is out of love． And it will be nicer if the children let their parents know how much love they really need and how much love is too much．

After the professor finished reading， the whole class was silent．

"Our lives are a gift to us by God， with love and care， and we always have reasons to celebrate ﹣ our friends around us， the job that provides us our livelihood， the miracles we see every day．"

[1]Once，when there was a famine（饥荒），a rich baker sent for twenty of the poorest children in the town，and said to them，"In this basket there is a loaf（面包）for each of you．Take it，and come back to me every day at this hour for more．"
[2]The hungry children gathered eagerly about the basket，and fought over the bread because each wanted the largest loaf．At last they went away without even （77） thanking/saying thanks （goodbye）to/expressing thanks to the good baker．
[3]Gretchen，a poorly dressed little girl，did not fight or struggle with the other children，but stood quietly in the distance（远处），When the badly behaved children had left．Gretchen took the smallest loaf，which was all that was left in the basket．She kissed the baker's hand and went home．
[4]（78）第二天，孩子们表现得像以前一样糟糕．Gretchen got a loaf almost half the size of the one she got the first day．When she came home，her mother cut the loaf open．Many new shining pieces of silver fell out of it．
[5]Her mother was very worried and said，"Take the money back to the baker at once．The silver must have fallen into the dough by accident．By quick，Gretchen!"
[6]When the little girl gave the rich man her mother's message，he said，"（79）It was no mistake，I had the silver pieces put into the smallest loaf to reward（奖赏）you．Always be as content（满足），peaceable，and thankful as you now are．Go home now，and tell your mother that the money is yours to keep．"

Many kids help parents to do chores in the house． They may take out the trash， walk the dog or sweep the floor． In return， some kids get money or other rewards from their parents， such as 20minutes to play computer games．
But some people do not think that kids should get rewards for doing chores． One of them is Jane Smith， a parenting educator and family coach． She believes if kids get rewards， they may think that work isn't worth doing unless you get something in return． For example， kids won't sweep the floor if they see it is dirty． But they will do it if their parents reward them for it．
"Every house is a team effort，" Jane said． "A home is a living space for everyone in the family． It's important for kids to see that we all have a responsibility to keep our home clean．"
Other people hold different opinions． They believe that money or other rewards encourage kids to do more chores． It also teaches them real world lessons． They can learn about how we need to work to make money．
Now， there are also apps that encourage kids to do chores． The apps give kids points and digital （电子的） gifts that can be used either online or in life． With the app ChoreMonster， kids earn digital points after doing chores． Kids can exchange their points for real rewards， such as time to play video games or a trip to the mall． "Our goal is to encourage kids so they can earn rewards，" says Joe Black， founder of ChoreMonster． "Kids need positive （积极的） power to make them do chores．"

Students these days often have a lot of worries． Sometimes they have problems with their schoolwork， and sometimes with their friends． What can they do about this？ Some people believe the worst thing is to do nothing． Laura Mills， a teenager from London， agrees．"Problems and worries are normal in life，" says Laura． But I think talking to someone helps a lot． Unless we talk to someone， we'll certainly feel worse．"
Laura once lost her wallet， and worried for days．She was afraid to tell her parents about it．She even walked three miles to school each day because she didn't have any money．She just kept thinking，"If I tell my parents， they'll be angry!" In the end，she talked to her parents and they were really understanding．Her dad said he sometimes made careless mistakes himself． They got her a new wallet and asked her to be more careful．"I will always remember to share my problems in the future!" Laura says．
Robert Hunt advises students about common problems． He feels the same． way as Laura．"It is best not to run away from our problems． We should always try to solve them．"He thinks the first step is to find someone you trust to talk to．This person doesn't need to be an expert like himself．" Students often forget that their parents have more experience， and are always there to help them．
In English， we say that sharing a problem is like cutting it in half． So you're halfway to solving a problem just by talking， to someone about it．
（1）What do teenagers worry about these days？
（2）What's Laura Mill's opinion about how to deal with problems？
（3）What happened to Laura and what did she learn from it？
（4）What advice does Robert Hunt give to teenagers？
（5）What's the conclusion（ 结论）？
When I was in the middle school， I seldom raised my hands to answer questions in class． And I found lots of my classmates were just like me． When the teacher asked a question， I always lowered my head because I was afraid that the teacher saw me．
One day， in a foreign language class， Mr． Black gave us a lesson． He wanted us to be active in class， so he asked us some questions，but no one answered．"At the beginning of the class， let me tell you a story．" He said．
"When I came to the United States to study， the university often invited famous people to make speeches． Before the beginning of every speech， I found an interesting thing． The students around me always took a cardboard folded （折叠） in half，wrote their names in bold （粗体） with the most eye﹣catching color，and then placed the cardboard on the seat．So when the speaker needed the answers from the students，he could see and call a listener' s name directly．"
"I couldn't understand that． My classmates told me the speakers were all top people who meant chances． When your answer was to their surprise， it meant they might give you more chances．In fact，I really saw a few students got great chances because of that．"
After listening to the story，I understood that the chance will not find you itself． You must show yourself all the time so that you can find a chance and then catch it．

Do you get lots of reading tasks as part of your homework？ You might wish that you could read faster．There are some people who say that you can learn to read at super﹣high speeds． But experts disagree on this idea．
"Speed reading is not actually possible，" said Elizabeth Schotter，a scientist at the University of South Florida， US． Schotter pointed out that people who say that they can teach others how to speed read are usually doing it to make money by selling courses and books．
In fact， speed reading has been made known to people since 1959， when US educator Evelyn Wood introduced a speed reading program． Several US presidents have even asked their officers to take speed reading courses． However， there is no real science behind speed reading．
Schotter explained that reading is a task difficult to finish． It includes four steps： seeing a word， getting back its meaning from your memory， connecting it to other words in the same sentence， and then moving on to the next word．This process uses many parts of the brain at one time． It can't be sped up．
Some people who say they are able to speed read are simply skimming． Skimming involves reading a passage quickly and only looking for certain words or sentences．
Skimmers can figure out the main idea of a passage﹣especially if it's a topic they're familiar with﹣﹣but they will not be able to remember all the pieces of information．
So is there a way to become a faster reader？ Research suggests that you should try to improve the number of your words and simply read more．
（1）According to Schotter， which of the following is TRUE？
A． It's good for students to read at super high speeds．
B． Speed reading courses are supported by real science．
C． Reading includes four steps，it's not easy to finish．
D． Speed reading courses and books are useful for us．
（2）What can we know from Paragraph 5？
A． Skimmers will not forget all the pieces of information．
B． You must read the passage carefully when you are skimming it．
C． Skimming focuses on all the words or sentences of a passage．
D． By skimming， skimmers may find the main idea of a passage．
（3）According to this passage， how to read faster？
A． Learn more words and read more．
B． Taking speed reading courses can help．
C． Read more books about speed reading．
D． See the words at super﹣high speeds．
Many schools across the country have shut their doors due to the coronavirus outbreak． This puts teachers and students in new situation． They are turning to online learning． For some students， this is a new experience． Here are a few helpful tips．
1．Find a quiet place
Getting ready for a video lesson？ Your first step is finding a quiet place to set up． Choose a place where nobody or nothing will take your attention away．
2．Set goal（目标）for yourself
Before class starts， set a goal for yourself． A goal gets your mind ready to learn． It gives you an extra purpose in class． It can even help you focus on what your teacher is saying．
3．Check： Are you muted？
Before the lesson starts， mute yourself! Background noises may not sound loud on your side． But even tiny sounds can be louder through speakers!
4．Practice active listening
Here are ways to practice active listening： Keep your eyes on the screen，____looking around the room． Nod， smile and react to what you're hearing．
5．Follow your teacher's instructions
Usually your teacher can see you raise your hand． That's not so easy on a video classroom． So be sure to follow instructions． Your teacher will let you know how to show that you want to ask or answer a question．
6．Keep calm and troubleshoot
Has something gone wrong during？ Screen froze？ Bumped（被挤出）from the class？ App crashed？ Don't be nervous! Problems like this will happen． It is not the end of the world． Try logging（登录）back on， check your Wi-Fi or restart your computer if you need to． If all else fails， keep calm﹣and try logging on again!
（1）In Tip 1： To get ready for a video lesson， find a quiet place to make sure
（根据文中内容补全句子信息，10词以内）
（2）In Tip 2： List two advantages of setting goal before class starts．（列举两条设定目标的好处）
（①）
（②）
（3）①In Tip 3： What' s the Chinese meaning of mute？（写出mute的汉语意思）
②In Tip 4： Fill in the blank with one phrase．（在句子空白处填一个恰当的短语）
（4）In Tip 5： Translate the underlined sentence into Chinese．（将划线句子翻译成汉语）
（5）In Tip 6： How do you understand the underlined sentence？（写出划线句子的近义句，禁止使用文中原句）
So，it's exam time again.Have you done the necessary work to get good marks？Sleeping with the textbook under the pillow（枕头）doesn't work.The best way is to space your practice out，rather than cram（塞）it all together.Just as a scientist called Tom Stafford advises，if you organize five hours of study into one hour a day，you'll remember more than what you study for five hours on one day.
▲Get pens and paper and start working!Students who can test themselves earlier will be better at retrieving the knowledge from the memory and keep it in the long run.John Dunlosky，a professor in the US，suggests that "you start by reading a textbook with your favorite pens and colors，and then write down the important ideas on small cards.While doing so，you actually try to test yourselves on them."
Good revision（复习）should give you confidence，but if you are still worried，it's not harmful to follow some special customs.In Japan，it seems to be a tradition for students to eat Katsudon before a test.This is a bowl of rice with egg and pork pieces.The name of the dish makes people think of the word "katsu"，meaning "winning".For some students in South Korea，the key to success is not washing their hair before an exam，because they believe they could wash all the knowledge out of their heads.And in different parts of the world，there are always those who believe in their "lucky underwear".
The bottom line is that you need to study，eat a good meal，sleep well on the eve of the test，and believe that your efforts will pay off.
Good luck in your exam!

In recent years， a growing number of Chinese books and movies have been translated into other languages，（1） They have been learning Chinese and are interested in Chinese culture．Anna is one of them．Before she translated JinYong's novel Legends of the Condor Heroes（《射雕英雄传》），the writer was little known to English readers．（2）
