A strong wind blew as I walked to Mrs. Goodman's house. Her knee was badly hurt months ago and Mom told her that I would do her yard(院子) work1 she was able to again.
I knocked on 2 door and waited for long. The door3 opened. "Hi, Rodney," Mrs. Goodman said. "Sorry it took me so long to answer the door! Today, I need you to clean out my flowerbeds and rake(耙) the leaves. Do you have any4 ?"
"Mrs. Goodman, could you tell me how to clean out a flowerbed? I know how to rake leaves,5 I'm not sure how to do it by myself." I blushed and said, "I'm sorry I have so many questions!" Mrs. Goodman 6 looked at me as she said, "Rodney, you don' t have to be 7 for asking questions." She told me8 to complete the work, and soon I was ready to get started.
First I cleaned out the flowerbeds, and then I started raking the leaves. While working, I thought about a math problem I was having at school. I9 Mrs. Goodman was a math teacher before. However,I was still10 to ask her for math help.
A 11 later, Mrs. Goodman opened the door and called, "Would you like to come inside and warm up?" Inside, she handed me a cup of hot chocolate. "You have done a great job, Rodney. It was12 for me to admit(承认) that I needed help with my yard. work. Have you ever had a hard time13 help?" she said.
Now I knew that I didn't have to keep my problem 14 . "I sure have, Mrs. Goodman," I answered, "can you help me with my math problem?"
"Certainly!" she 15 .
I knew that I would help Mrs. Goodman again whenever she needed me.

The boy, Wang Fa, 14, is a member of the Va ethnic group(佤族) from Yunnan. After winning the under-14 gold medal at the ASICS Tennis Junior Tour in Guangzhou, a fan from Yunnan gave him the bamboo basket as a gift and the photos were taken.
"We always carry bamboo baskets when we work in the field. This is a usual farming tool of the Va ethnic group. I carried my rackets in this basket to remember my hometown," Wang said after the match.
Before tennis, Wang was just a common boy from a village. But in 2016, a local club chose him as one of the first 10 local children to learn to play tennis. "I was worried at the beginning because the outside world was so different from my home," he said, adding that tennis has helped him make more friends and get a better education.
Over the past six years, Wang, along with other players at the Yunnan Wild Elephants Tennis Club, has trained hard to improve his skills and physical strength. The children would get up at 6:30 am and practice for more than six hours a day. Every day, they needed to swing(挥动)a racket more than 7,000 times and run 9 kilometers.
"If it were not for tennis, I would still be helping out my family with farm work back home," Wang said.
Wang's parents didn't want him to learn tennis at first because they didn't have enough money. But the tennis club offered to teach him for free. For Wang, winning theASICS Tennis Junior Tour was the beginning of a hopeful future. "I believe I will be the top on the professional stage," he said.
(1)、Paragraph 5 is most probably written to ____ .A、tell why Wang chose tennis B、show how Wang practised in the club C、describe how Wang's life has changed D、share what Wang experienced before learning tennis(2)、It can be inferred from the passage that Wang Fa is most probably a ____ boy.A、brave and polite B、clever and helpful C、popular and warm-hearted D、confident and hard-working(3)、The best title for the passage can be ____ .A、Basket full of hopes B、A famous tennis player C、The best way to play tennis D、Wang Fa and his hometown4. 阅读下面短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。Dear Ann,
In the last letter, you said you were interested in the school club I started last year. You asked me what pushed me to do so.
Well, the answer came to me when searching for a topic for the school work. I found that many U. S. teens weren't even eating one piece of fruit or vegetable daily! If I can help others put more vegetables and fruits into their daily meals, I would surely do that.
So, I started" Lettuce Eat" as well as a website with nutrition(营养) tips. Here I want to share some cool tips with you.
If you dislike eating vegetables, here's a tip for you: Put vegetables into meals without having to taste them. It got me to eat vegetables that I don't like, such as cauliflower or carrots. I mix(混合) vegetables with meat and use them in noodles or other dishes.
Sometimes you don't even need to make a difficult dish. By just adding something on the side, you can greatly increase the nutrients you get out of the meal. For example, tomatoes have a lot of vitamin C. If you add tomatoes to rice and beans, you will get more iron.
I think my most useful lesson was knowing the importance of having"3 square meals" so that I wouldn't be very interested in unhealthy snacks(点心). In the past,I often snackeda lot on chips and chocolates and got into a bad habit of eating too much between meals, then not being hungry enough for a healthy meal, and then being hungry again for snacking... and this would go on and on. Now I know that I need to have a complete meal, including vegetables and other healthy food, and I have now given up most of my unhealthy snacking.
There is so much to learn about nutrition. Although I only spent about a year on my club, it turned out to be a fun way to give useful information to teenagers. I hope you will join us as well!
Yours,
Vivian Jibrin

Oct 16 is World Food Day. So what can you do ( help) hungry people? Now you can play a game and make the world a ( good) place at the same time. It's called Freerice.
My geography teacher in high school told us this game. It's an educational trivia game(益智问答游戏) and it's so special. If you answer a question ( correct), you will raise 10 grains(粒) of rice for the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) to support its work saving and changing lives worldwide.
I first started playing, it only had English trivia questions. But now it can test you on arts and culture, math, science, languages, and more.
I now like to use it to practice my Chinese and also geography — two favorite subjects of (I). It's also good because it fits all ages and has different difficulty ( level). Besides, you can play by yourself or even make a group with your family, friends or classmates.
According to the Freerice website, since 2010, Freerice has raised more than 214 billion grains of rice for people in need. That is about US $1.41 million. One top donator(捐赠者) is a ( use) named Handsome JFr. He has donated 63,925,020 grains of rice!

Wood comes from trees, and wood is used to build houses and make furniture. Reeds(芦苇) are also useful in making objects. People have made baskets of reeds for thousands of years. The rubber in your eraser comes from plants as well.
Others have almost countless uses. Take bamboo, for example. This strong but light grass grows tall very quickly. You can eat it. You can wear it. You can use it to build everything from a bridge to a bike. People have even built cars from bamboo!
Plants provide so much for people. They give us beauty! Imagine a world without colorful flowers, tall trees, and swaying grasses. Is that a world you would want to live in?
