My changes
As teenagers, we are the future of our homeland. I have made great progress in the past three years.
In the past, I seldom exercised and I ate too much junk food. I spent a lot of time playing computer games instead of reading books in my free time. I hardly helped my parents with housework and I used to depend on them too much.
But I have changed a lot with the help of my teachers and friends. I usually do sports to be stronger, such as running and swimming. What's more, I have taken up some hobbies, such as playing the piano and reading, In this way, I can develop fully. Besides, I have learned to take care of myself so that I can be independent. And I always help my parents do some chores and I understand them now. Now ,I'm trying my best to study because knowledge is power.
In the future, I will be a useful person for our country. I will help to spread the great Chinese traditional culture.

I've studied twelve foreign languages so far. As a successful language learner, I hope the following tips can help you make your language learning journey easier.
Decide what you want to get from language.
There are many different reasons to learn a language, and often the motivation （动机） behind learning it will help decide how to study. I studied Japanese simply for reading some fun science fiction books, so I paid attention to grammar. However, when I was studying Chinese because I was planning a trip to Beijing, I memorized more useful sentences than grammar rules.
Be persistent.
It's surprising how much of a language you can learn in just a few days. It's also surprising how much you can forget in just a few days. Language learning is a thing where it's better to do a little each day. You'll learn more if you spend 30 minutes studying every day rather than 8 hours once a week.
Know the things you are good at-and then ignore （忽略）them.
If you're good at memorizing words, then you might want to spend all day doing that. But the thing is, if you give too much attention to one part of a language, then you might end up hurting your progress. I really love grammar, but I usually make myself ignore it when I'm speaking. I'm afraid I will care too much about small things that most people won't even notice.
43. When studying Chinese, the writer paid more attention to _____________.
A. grammar rules B. useful expressions
C. science fiction books D. memorizing words
44. What's meaning of the underlined word "persistent"
A. 主动的 B. 放松的 C. 认真的 D. 坚持的
45. Which of the following can't make you be a successful learner
A. Giving up when meeting difficulty. B. Knowing but ignoring your strength.
C. Holding on to what you are learning. D. Deciding what to get from the language.
46. What is the best title of the passage
A. Learning different kinds of English. B. How to be a good language learner
C. Practicing English in different ways. D. Twelve foreign languages.
D

To slow its speed when the lander got close to the surface, it used both a parachute （降 落伞）and a retrorocket （减速火箭）. It then landed in the Utopia Planitia area（乌托邦地区）, which was exploded by NASA's in the 1970s.

A. The Tianwen-1 mission includes four space missions.
B. Zhurong was known as a great scientist in ancient China.
C. The rover has carried out a lot of experiments ahead of time.
D. China achieved success in landing on Mars creating a new record.
48. What should be carefully considered on landing on Mars
a. Mars's thin air. b. Mars's bad weather.
c. The landing instructions. d. The communication delay.
A. a, b, c. B. b, c, d. C. a, b, d. D. a, b, c, d.
49. What does the writer imply （暗示）in Paragraph 4
A. The landing way is quite different.
B. The landing process is full of danger.
C. The landing place is unknown to NASA.
D. The landing time is controlled by scientists exactly.
50. Which of the following mission will be carried out in three months
A. The search of ice samples.
B. The mapping of the Mars's polar areas.
C. The exploration of the Utopia Planitia area.
D. The collection of surface and subsurface ice.
