Ⅲ.阅读理解
Last weekend, I took Lucy to a park, where she discovered a track(轨道) with large bumps(凸块) and sharp turns. At first, I thought Lucy was able to ride her bike along the track, but she quickly found that her bike was too low to the ground and kept getting stuck on top of the bumps.
Lucy looked at me with fear because she was still a green hand in bike riding. I tried to encourage her too, but really, I was thinking—this is going to be a disaster. Not because I thought she would get hurt. More because I thought she wouldn't be able to pick up enough speed to balance, and then got really discouraged and gave up quickly. I imagined her throwing her bicycle to the ground and then crying all the way home.
But I was only half right. Lucy did have a lot of trouble riding the bike. She couldn't find her balance. She fell many times. At one point, she almost started crying because younger kids were getting angry that she was slowing everyone else down. But she did not give up. She kept picking herself up and trying again. She even took the bike off the track and into the main park to practice pushing off and picking up speed on a flat ground. When she felt more confident, she came back. Then she did it over and over again until she finally reached her goal of going around the whole track without falling once. Then she didn't want to leave and everyone was cheering her on.
This was not a day that ended in a disaster. It was a day when Lucy learned that perseverance(毅力) and willpower pay off.
1.Why was Lucy taken to the park last weekend
A.To play with other kids.
B.To discover a track for fun.
C.To find her speed was too slow.
D.To ride her bike along the track.
2.What does the underlined sentence probably mean in Paragraph 2
A.Lucy would get hurt and cry all the way home.
B.Lucy would fear to ride the bike and get discouraged.
C.Lucy would lose balance and slow the younger kids down.
D.Lucy would have trouble riding the bike and give up soon.
3.What did Lucy take the bike into the main park for
A.Being cheered on by everyone.
B.Getting practice in an easier way.
C.Feeling more confident and coming back.
D.Reaching her goal of riding the bike at once.

On April 28, across the US, kids are going to work with their parents instead of going to school. They can help their parents do some cleaning, send e mails and deal with other daily things. Because April 28 is Take Our Sons and Daughters to Work Day all over the US. This holiday shows kids what it means to be a grown up in the working world.
I still remember when this day started, I was very happy. Not only did I have the chance to leave the school, but also I could sit in my dad's taxi all day long and we would go to a restaurant for lunch.
But after only 40 minutes' driving around the city, I was very bored. I couldn't read my book in the car as I would get carsick(晕车). And my dad didn't like to turn on the radio. I got hot and uncomfortable. People wouldn't get into his taxi because they thought he already had a passenger: me. So nothing happened. It seemed years before we went out for lunch. In fact, I started to miss my school.
Although the purpose of the day is to give kids a chance to experience possible jobs in their futures, I got something completely different from the day. I learned to value school life. Where else can you play with your friends, do science experiments, read great books and write stories all in one day
Just like you'll have to learn to love your job later in life, learn to love school now. If you don't, try spending a day at work with your dad.

Ⅵ. The League Committee calls on all the students to take part in the volunteer work. 100 students intend to work as a volunteer actively.
Here are the results. 30 students want to collect litter in the community. 40 students choose to tidy up books in the reading room. Another 30 students would like to visit the old people's home.
Of course, I'm going to visit the old people's home. Many old grandfathers and grandmothers live there. They are too old to look after themselves. So I can clean the house, chat with them and listen to their stories. I can also sing songs for old people because they feel lonely.
In my opinion, it's very important to attend some volunteer work in my school life. It makes me know that I should care more about the people who need help around us.And I'm proud that I can do something useful for them. I have a sense of achievement.
