As we know, museums are buildings where many valuable and important exhibits(展品)
are kept so that people can go and see them. For example, art museums are places where people can learn about v 1 cultures. More and more popular “design museums” that are opening today, however, perform quite a different role. Unlike most art museums, the design museum shows exhibits that are easily found in our daily life, such as fridges and washing m 2 .

Do pretty school uniforms lead to early romance
A technical secondary school in Nanjing planned to order Korean-style school uniforms for students, but different people have different ideas.
Parents
Parents don’t agree because they believe that the new uniforms look too good and will encourage early romances among the students. Some parents even think it’s just a way for the school to make money.If the students wear such beautiful uniforms, how can they study well Their studies must be influenced by the school uniforms.
Students
They think the sports wear uniforms make them look androgynous (难分性别).
They said the Korean-style uniform has many advantages such as raising interest in class and lifting confidence. It is also considered to be a good way to develop their sense of pride(骄傲) for the school and help then create good temperaments(气质).
School
“The plan to change the school uniform from sports wear has been cancelled,” Mr Lin, a teacher, told the interviewer.
“The students dislike the present uniform, most of the students prefer Korean style school uniforms. We know cities like Shanghai and Guangzhou have changed their sports wear school uniforms to more fashionable uniforms. However, many parents are strongly against it.” Lin said.
When asked about the problems with early romance between students because of the more fashionable uniforms, Lin said he hadn’t considered it. He, however, agreed that the Korean-style uniform makes the students more attractive.
Education department
“Because we don’t have a unified (统一的) standard for school uniforms, the schools can choose their own styles. Either sports wear or uniforms are OK,” an official said.
In the end, the school had to cancel the plan and the students are sorry about the school’s final decision.
Title Do pretty school uniforms lead to early romance

Whenever we meet with difficulty or failure (失败), teachers, parents or others often say to us "Never give up." These can be encouraging words. A person should believe in himself and keep trying to be successful no matter how many times he fails. Therefore, I believe that we should never give up. One reason is that if we give up too easily, we will seldom achieve anything. It is not unusual for us to fail in something new, so we should try again. Besides, if we always give up when we fail , we will not be able to develop new skills and grow.
Another reason is that we can learn from our mistakes so as not to do the same things again. If we do not try once more, the lesson we have learned is wasted. Finally, we should never give up because as we work to reach our goals, we develop confidence, and this confidence can help us succeed in other areas of our lives. If we never challenge(挑战) ourselves, we will begin to doubt our abilities.
In short, it is important that we do not give up when working for our goals. We succeed in the end or not, we will learn something , and what we learn will help us to become better and more confident. What's more, if we give up , we have no chance of realizing our dreams any more , but if we keep making great efforts, there is always a chance that we will be successful one day.
Topic: Never Give Up
Possible meanings and the author's opinions The words " Never give up" can 1 others or oneself . If a person wants to succeed should have the quality . So we should never give up.
The 2 If we give up too easily, maybe we will achieve 3 , so when we fail in something new, we should not disappoint ourselves but try again. Never giving up will make us learn from the mistakes and learn the lesson so that we can not make the same ones. To reach our goals and develop the confidence which can help4___ourselves ,so we mustn’t but challenge ourselves.
Conclusions If you give up, you will have no 5 of reaching your goals. Never give up and you will attain your goals sooner or later.
Writing a good story is no easy task. What’s the secret Mo Yan, the Nobel Prize winner in literature in 2012, believes his success comes from a large amount of reading.
Mo was born into a farming family in a village in Shandong Province. He grew up listening to folk stories about gods, spirits and foxes. Those stories later became the inspiration (灵感) for Mo’s writing.
Mo left school at the age of 12 and started to work in the fields. Although he was tired after his daily hard work, Mo was always hungry for books. However, there were very few in the village. He read his older brother’s textbooks and even dictionaries. He helped others with farm work in exchange for books.
“When I finished reading all the books around, I thought I was the most knowledgeable man in the world,” he told Xinhua.
After Mo left his hometown and joined the army in 1976, he began to read widely, including works by Lu Xun and many other famous writers.
He studied from these writers but did not copy them. Instead, he developed his own style. “I grew up in an environment filled with folk culture. It enters my novels whenever I pick up a pen. This has influenced, even decided, my style,” Mo told a group of reporters in his hometown shortly after he won the award in 2012.
As the first Chinese citizen to win a Nobel Prize in literature, the organization spoke highly of his works. They described his writing as a mixture (混合体) of fantasy and reality, combining historical and social perspectives (看法).
Mo Yan, the First (1)_______________ Nobel Prize Winner
The process of MoYan’s growth ·He was born in a village and his parents are both (2) _______________. ·After leaving school at the age of 12, although he could (3) _______________ find any books to read, he never gave up. ·In the army, he read such works as Lu Xun’s and other famous writers’ to (4) _______________ his own style. ·In (5) _______________, he won the Nobel Prize for literature.

MaymeClayton collected books, magazines and letters written by African Americans. Her son, Avery Clayton,thought her collection was important. Unlike most books, these were rare and hard to find. They were written by writers who helped shape African American culture.
One book in the collection was written by Phillis Wheatley. Wheatley was a slave who wrote poetry. She was the first African American to publish a book. Wheatley herself signed (签名) the book in the Claytons’ collection. No one else owns a copy signed by PhillisWheatley.
By the time she passed away at age 83, Mrs. Clayton had more than 30,000 books by or about black people. Her collection also includes papers about slaves, photographs, movies, sheet music, and personal letters by black leaders and artists. It is one of the biggest personal collections of African American history and culture in the United States.
Avery Clayton’s dream was to create a museum for his mother’s treasures. Scholars say that Mrs. Clayton’s collection is very important. Without her work, part of African American heritage (遗产) would have been lost. “We didn’t know these things existed,” says Sara Hadron of California’s Huntington Library.
The collections new home is likely to be in Culver City, California. Part of Avery Clayton’s dream is to share the cultural riches his mother collected with others. He especially wants kids to have a chance to see the collection.
“At present African American culture is being explained by pop culture,” he says, “It’s important to offer a more complete picture.”
Mayme Clayton and Her Collection

As a student, you must deal with many problems in your life and because of all the things attracting your attention, it’s hard to concentrate(集中) on studying. And yet if you are in school, you have to do a lot of studies in order to make progress from year to year. The key to effective studying isn’t studying longer, but studying in a smarter way. You can begin studying with these effective study habits.
A lot of people make the mistake of studying in a place really doesn’t encourage concentration. A place with a lot of distractions(使人分心的事物) is a poor study area. If you try and study in your dorm(宿舍) room, for example, you may find the computer, TV, or a roommate more interesting than the reading material you are trying to understand. Libraries or quiet coffee houses are good places to choose. Make sure to choose quiet areas in these places, nor loud or crowded places.
Most people find that connecting similar concepts makes it easier to remember when the exam comes around. Every person is unique in how they put similar information together. So while you are welcome to copy other people’s notes or outlines, make sure you translate(翻译) those notes and outlines into your own words and concepts and put them down in your notebook. Being unable to do this is what often causes many students to have difficulty in remembering important items(项目).
Too many people treat studying as a thing to do when they have some spare time. But if you schedule your study time just as your class time is scheduled, you’ll find it becomes much less troublesome in the long run. Spending 30 or 60 minutes every day before or after a class is a lot easier and will allow you to actually learn more of the material. Scheduling is even more important if you’re going to be a part of a study group. If only half of your members are devoted to a study group for every meeting, then you need to find other study group members who are as devoted as you are and study together with them.
A memory game is a good method for remembering pieces of information by using a simple association(联想) of common words. Most often people put words together to form a meaningless sentence that is easy to remember. The first letter of each word can then be used to stand for something else--the piece of information you are trying to remember.
Some highly effective study habits
Introduction ◆There are many things 1. students from concentrating on their studies. ◆It is important to study 2. instead of studying for a long time.
Some 3. on effective study Pay attention to the 4. ◆A place with many distractions is 5. for concentration. ◆Compared to a dorm room, 6. and quiet coffee houses are good choices

Do pretty school uniforms lead to early romance
A technical secondary school in Nanjing planned to order Korean-style school uniforms for students, but different people have different ideas.
Parents
Parents don’t agree because they believe that the new uniforms look too good and will encourage early romances among the students. Some parents even think it’s just a way for the school to make money.If the students wear such beautiful uniforms, how can they study well Their studies must be influenced by the school uniforms.
Students
They think the sports wear uniforms make them look androgynous (难分性别).
They said the Korean-style uniform has many advantages such as raising interest in class and lifting confidence. It is also considered to be a good way to develop their sense of pride(骄傲) for the school and help then create good temperaments(气质).
School
“The plan to change the school uniform from sports wear has been cancelled,” Mr Lin, a teacher, told the interviewer.
“The students dislike the present uniform, most of the students prefer Korean style school uniforms. We know cities like Shanghai and Guangzhou have changed their sports wear school uniforms to more fashionable uniforms. However, many parents are strongly against it.” Lin said.
When asked about the problems with early romance between students because of the more fashionable uniforms, Lin said he hadn’t considered it. He, however, agreed that the Korean-style uniform makes the students more attractive.
Education department
“Because we don’t have a unified (统一的) standard for school uniforms, the schools can choose their own styles. Either sports wear or uniforms are OK,” an official said.
In the end, the school had to cancel the plan and the students are sorry about the school’s final decision.

Whenever we meet with difficulty or failure (失败), teachers, parents or others often say to us "Never give up." These can be encouraging words. A person should believe in himself and keep trying to be successful no matter how many times he fails. Therefore, I believe that we should never give up. One reason is that if we give up too easily, we will seldom achieve anything. It is not unusual for us to fail in something new, so we should try again. Besides, if we always give up when we fail , we will not be able to develop new skills and grow.
Another reason is that we can learn from our mistakes so as not to do the same things again. If we do not try once more, the lesson we have learned is wasted. Finally, we should never give up because as we work to reach our goals, we develop confidence, and this confidence can help us succeed in other areas of our lives. If we never challenge(挑战) ourselves, we will begin to doubt our abilities.
In short, it is important that we do not give up when working for our goals. We succeed in the end or not, we will learn something , and what we learn will help us to become better and more confident. What's more, if we give up , we have no chance of realizing our dreams any more , but if we keep making great efforts, there is always a chance that we will be successful one day.

Writing a good story is no easy task. What’s the secret Mo Yan, the Nobel Prize winner in literature in 2012, believes his success comes from a large amount of reading.
Mo was born into a farming family in a village in Shandong Province. He grew up listening to folk stories about gods, spirits and foxes. Those stories later became the inspiration (灵感) for Mo’s writing.
Mo left school at the age of 12 and started to work in the fields. Although he was tired after his daily hard work, Mo was always hungry for books. However, there were very few in the village. He read his older brother’s textbooks and even dictionaries. He helped others with farm work in exchange for books.
“When I finished reading all the books around, I thought I was the most knowledgeable man in the world,” he told Xinhua.
After Mo left his hometown and joined the army in 1976, he began to read widely, including works by Lu Xun and many other famous writers.
He studied from these writers but did not copy them. Instead, he developed his own style. “I grew up in an environment filled with folk culture. It enters my novels whenever I pick up a pen. This has influenced, even decided, my style,” Mo told a group of reporters in his hometown shortly after he won the award in 2012.
As the first Chinese citizen to win a Nobel Prize in literature, the organization spoke highly of his works. They described his writing as a mixture (混合体) of fantasy and reality, combining historical and social perspectives (看法).

MaymeClayton collected books, magazines and letters written by African Americans. Her son, Avery Clayton,thought her collection was important. Unlike most books, these were rare and hard to find. They were written by writers who helped shape African American culture.
One book in the collection was written by Phillis Wheatley. Wheatley was a slave who wrote poetry. She was the first African American to publish a book. Wheatley herself signed (签名) the book in the Claytons’ collection. No one else owns a copy signed by PhillisWheatley.
By the time she passed away at age 83, Mrs. Clayton had more than 30,000 books by or about black people. Her collection also includes papers about slaves, photographs, movies, sheet music, and personal letters by black leaders and artists. It is one of the biggest personal collections of African American history and culture in the United States.
Avery Clayton’s dream was to create a museum for his mother’s treasures. Scholars say that Mrs. Clayton’s collection is very important. Without her work, part of African American heritage (遗产) would have been lost. “We didn’t know these things existed,” says Sara Hadron of California’s Huntington Library.
The collections new home is likely to be in Culver City, California. Part of Avery Clayton’s dream is to share the cultural riches his mother collected with others. He especially wants kids to have a chance to see the collection.
“At present African American culture is being explained by pop culture,” he says, “It’s important to offer a more complete picture.”

As a student, you must deal with many problems in your life and because of all the things attracting your attention, it’s hard to concentrate(集中) on studying. And yet if you are in school, you have to do a lot of studies in order to make progress from year to year. The key to effective studying isn’t studying longer, but studying in a smarter way. You can begin studying with these effective study habits.
A lot of people make the mistake of studying in a place really doesn’t encourage concentration. A place with a lot of distractions(使人分心的事物) is a poor study area. If you try and study in your dorm(宿舍) room, for example, you may find the computer, TV, or a roommate more interesting than the reading material you are trying to understand. Libraries or quiet coffee houses are good places to choose. Make sure to choose quiet areas in these places, nor loud or crowded places.
Most people find that connecting similar concepts makes it easier to remember when the exam comes around. Every person is unique in how they put similar information together. So while you are welcome to copy other people’s notes or outlines, make sure you translate(翻译) those notes and outlines into your own words and concepts and put them down in your notebook. Being unable to do this is what often causes many students to have difficulty in remembering important items(项目).
Too many people treat studying as a thing to do when they have some spare time. But if you schedule your study time just as your class time is scheduled, you’ll find it becomes much less troublesome in the long run. Spending 30 or 60 minutes every day before or after a class is a lot easier and will allow you to actually learn more of the material. Scheduling is even more important if you’re going to be a part of a study group. If only half of your members are devoted to a study group for every meeting, then you need to find other study group members who are as devoted as you are and study together with them.
A memory game is a good method for remembering pieces of information by using a simple association(联想) of common words. Most often people put words together to form a meaningless sentence that is easy to remember. The first letter of each word can then be used to stand for something else--the piece of information you are trying to remember.

As we know, museums are buildings where many valuable and important exhibits(展品)
are kept so that people can go and see them. For example, art museums are places where people can learn about v 1 cultures. More and more popular “design museums” that are opening today, however, perform quite a different role. Unlike most art museums, the design museum shows exhibits that are easily found in our daily life, such as fridges and washing m 2 .

And yet if you are in school, you have to do a lot of studies in order to make progress from year to year. The key to effective studying isn’t studying longer, but studying in a smarter way. You can begin studying with these effective study habits.
A lot of people make the mistake of studying in a place really doesn’t encourage concentration. A place with a lot of distractions(使人分心的事物) is a poor study area. If you try and study in your dorm(宿舍) room, for example, you may find the computer, TV, or a roommate more interesting than the reading material you are trying to understand. Libraries or quiet coffee houses are good places to choose. Make sure to choose quiet areas in these places, nor loud or crowded places.
Most people find that connecting similar concepts makes it easier to remember when the exam comes around. Every person is unique in how they put similar information together. So while you are welcome to copy other people’s notes or outlines, make sure you translate(翻译) those notes and outlines into your own words and concepts and put them down in your notebook. Being unable to do this is what often causes many students to have difficulty in remembering important items(项目).
Too many people treat studying as a thing to do when they have some spare time. But if you schedule your study time just as your class time is scheduled, you’ll find it becomes much less troublesome in the long run. Spending 30 or 60 minutes every day before or after a class is a lot easier and will allow you to actually learn more of the material. Scheduling is even more important if you’re going to be a part of a study group. If only half of your members are devoted to a study group for every meeting, then you need to find other study group members who are as devoted as you are and study together with them.
A memory game is a good method for remembering pieces of information by using a simple association(联想) of common words. Most often people put words together to form a meaningless sentence that is easy to remember. The first letter of each word can then be used to stand for something else--the piece of information you are trying to remember.

Whenever we meet with difficulty or failure (失败), teachers, parents or others often say to us "Never give up." These can be encouraging words. A person should believe in himself and keep trying to be successful no matter how many times he fails. Therefore, I believe that we should never give up. One reason is that if we give up too easily, we will seldom achieve anything. It is not unusual for us to fail in something new, so we should try again. Besides, if we always give up when we fail , we will not be able to develop new skills and grow.
Another reason is that we can learn from our mistakes so as not to do the same things again. If we do not try once more, the lesson we have learned is wasted. Finally, we should never give up because as we work to reach our goals, we develop confidence, and this confidence can help us succeed in other areas of our lives. If we never challenge(挑战) ourselves, we will begin to doubt our abilities.
In short, it is important that we do not give up when working for our goals. We succeed in the end or not, we will learn something , and what we learn will help us to become better and more confident. What's more, if we give up , we have no chance of realizing our dreams any more , but if we keep making great efforts, there is always a chance that we will be successful one day.

If asked to name the most famous cartoon character from their country, Americans may say Mickey Mouse. And people in Belgium would proudly m 1 Tintin. And in China, the title would probably go to Sanmao, a thin boy with only their hairs on his head, who was

On March 26, Zhang was given the Special Honor award at the 2018 International Illustrated Silent Book Contest. Zhang is the first Chinese cartoonist to ever r 3 the prize.
The story of Sanmao starts with his moving to Shanghai to make a living. As an orthan(孤儿)，Sanmao has n 4 to depend on and has to take on many different jobs, such as selling newspapers, polishing shoes and performing kung fu. But still, it’s h 5 for him to afford the cost of living. He has to sleep on the streets and is often laughed at by strangers.
Although his living conditions are p 6 , Sanmao is a kind boy who often shares whatever little food he has with homeless people. He is also a boy of integrity(正直). For example, he r 7 to join a group of thieves who promise to feed him every day in exchange for his services.
According to Sanmao’s e 8 , people learn about the most turbulent(动荡的) moments of Chinese history in the 20th century. This is why even though Sanmao is often seen as “China’s Tintin”, his tale is c 9 to be much darker than of the Belgian character.

As we know, museums are buildings where many valuable and important exhibits(展品)
are kept so that people can go and see them. For example, art museums are places where people can learn about v 1 cultures. More and more popular “design museums” that are opening today, however, perform quite a different role. Unlike most art museums, the design museum shows exhibits that are easily found in our daily life, such as fridges and washing m 2 .
The advantage of design museums is that they are places where people feel familiar with the exhibits．Being different from the art museum visitors，design museum visitors seldom feel frightened or puzzled．This is partly b 3 design museums clearly show how and why mass﹣products （批量产品） work and look a 4 they do，and how design has improved our lives．Art museum exhibits，on the other hand，would most probably f 5 visitors with a feeling that there is something out of their understanding．

A technical secondary school in Nanjing planned to order Korean-style school uniforms for students, but different people have different ideas.
Parents
Parents don’t agree because they believe that the new uniforms look too good and will encourage early romances among the students. Some parents even think it’s just a way for the school to make money.If the students wear such beautiful uniforms, how can they study well Their studies must be influenced by the school uniforms.
Students
They think the sports wear uniforms make them look androgynous (难分性别).

School
“The plan to change the school uniform from sports wear has been cancelled,” Mr Lin, a teacher, told the interviewer.
“The students dislike the present uniform, most of the students prefer Korean style school uniforms. We know cities like Shanghai and Guangzhou have changed their sports wear school uniforms to more fashionable uniforms. However, many parents are strongly against it.” Lin said.
When asked about the problems with early romance between students because of the more fashionable uniforms, Lin said he hadn’t considered it. He, however, agreed that the Korean-style uniform makes the students more attractive.
Education department
“Because we don’t have a unified (统一的) standard for school uniforms, the schools can choose their own styles. Either sports wear or uniforms are OK,” an official said.
In the end, the school had to cancel the plan and the students are sorry about the school’s final decision.

Writing a good story is no easy task. What’s the secret Mo Yan, the Nobel Prize winner in literature in 2012, believes his success comes from a large amount of reading.
Mo was born into a farming family in a village in Shandong Province. He grew up listening to folk stories about gods, spirits and foxes. Those stories later became the inspiration (灵感) for Mo’s writing.
Mo left school at the age of 12 and started to work in the fields. Although he was tired after his daily hard work, Mo was always hungry for books. However, there were very few in the village. He read his older brother’s textbooks and even dictionaries. He helped others with farm work in exchange for books.
“When I finished reading all the books around, I thought I was the most knowledgeable man in the world,” he told Xinhua.
After Mo left his hometown and joined the army in 1976, he began to read widely, including works by Lu Xun and many other famous writers.
He studied from these writers but did not copy them. Instead, he developed his own style. “I grew up in an environment filled with folk culture. It enters my novels whenever I pick up a pen. This has influenced, even decided, my style,” Mo told a group of reporters in his hometown shortly after he won the award in 2012.
As the first Chinese citizen to win a Nobel Prize in literature, the organization spoke highly of his works. They described his writing as a mixture (混合体) of fantasy and reality, combining historical and social perspectives (看法).

MaymeClayton collected books, magazines and letters written by African Americans. Her son, Avery Clayton,thought her collection was important. Unlike most books, these were rare and hard to find. They were written by writers who helped shape African American culture.
One book in the collection was written by Phillis Wheatley. Wheatley was a slave who wrote poetry. She was the first African American to publish a book. Wheatley herself signed (签名) the book in the Claytons’ collection. No one else owns a copy signed by PhillisWheatley.
By the time she passed away at age 83, Mrs. Clayton had more than 30,000 books by or about black people. Her collection also includes papers about slaves, photographs, movies, sheet music, and personal letters by black leaders and artists. It is one of the biggest personal collections of African American history and culture in the United States.
Avery Clayton’s dream was to create a museum for his mother’s treasures. Scholars say that Mrs. Clayton’s collection is very important. Without her work, part of African American heritage (遗产) would have been lost. “We didn’t know these things existed,” says Sara Hadron of California’s Huntington Library.
The collections new home is likely to be in Culver City, California. Part of Avery Clayton’s dream is to share the cultural riches his mother collected with others. He especially wants kids to have a chance to see the collection.
“At present African American culture is being explained by pop culture,” he says, “It’s important to offer a more complete picture.”
