I was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her
objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled (贴标签) everything.
I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push
my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each
other.
War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, “Take
your shoes away! Why under my bed!” Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to
my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.
The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute
but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right
away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled under her covers,
sobbing. Obviously, that was something she should not go through phone. All of a sudden, a
warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.
Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and
swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn't notice Kate had sat
up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached
out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me, “Thanks.”
Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn't always agree, but we
learned the key to living together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on.
24. What made Kate angry one evening
A. She couldn’t find her books.
B. She heard the author shouting loud.

More children in China are putting on weight. In 2018, 16 percent of Chinese children
were overweight, according to the National Health Commission (NHC).
Being too fat is bad for children’s health. According to the World Health Organization
(WHO), overweight children are more likely to develop diseases like diabetes (糖尿病) at a
younger age. This can lead to a higher chance of earlier death.
On Oct 23rd, the NHC, together with five other national departments, worked out a plan.
The plan aims to reduce the growth of fatness among children aged 0—18 years by 70 percent
from 2020 to 2030, Xinhua reported.
Kids are putting on weight because of changes in their diet and lifestyle, according to
experts (专家). Too much schoolwork and greater use of electronic devices (电子产品) could
also be a cause.
According to the plan, teachers should not allow their classes to run too late or too early.
They should make sure that students have breaks and enough physical (躯体上的) activity.
School students should have at least three hours of active physical activity each week.
Parents should reduce their children’s use of electronic devices and stop their children
from eating foods that are high in sugar, fat and salt.
28. According to the WHO, we know ________.

It’s not possible to stay together with loved ones all the time. Sometimes family members
have to be far away from each other. During that time, they might face something terrible.
Although we know what they are suffering, being far away makes it harder to help and
comfort loved ones. There is no use worrying a lot about them. Instead, keeping a positive
attitude of support is more helpful than getting into worrying about the person. I think it is
what I can do to help my loved ones.
My daughter has been working full-time during summer about 10 hours a day. She has to
study hard for a big entrance exam. At first, like most people, I wanted to try to solve the
problems and try to explain the situation. Was there a better way of time management Was
there a better way of studying for this test However, that was not always helpful. Sometimes,
it even gave more pressure to her. Sometimes it might sound like there was something wrong
to improve. However, it was just tiring at the end of the day. What would be the kind thing to

do in this situation It was hard to read someone’s mind. I decided to just chat with her online
and to send a hug emoji (表情符号) this time. It seemed more suitable than talking about
solutions. Giving space can also be an act of help, comfort and kindness.
It is fun and meaningful experiment to actively think about kind things to do rather than
let it happen naturally. I’ve realized it and I’m grateful for this chance to share online. Give it
a try too and you’ll enjoy sweetness.
32. What can we learn from the first paragraph
A. Worry is the best comfort to a loved one.
B. It is impossible to love someone around us.

D. It’s no use worrying a lot about loved ones not around us.

B. To tell us the ways to get along with others.
C. To discuss the rebuilding of personal relationships.
D. To show distance makes it hard to comfort loved ones.
35. Where is the passage probably taken from
A. A life journal B. A newspaper C. A website D. A speech report
