A
Is it a celebrity's （名人）job to be a good role model Please read the following students' debate.
Pros（正方） Cons(反方)
It's a celebrity's job to be a good role model because people usually look up to stars. If a celebrity drinks and smokes, his fans will follow him because they look up to the celebrity so much. If a celebrity's lifestyle is improper for kids, then their parents should be more careful about what they let their kids see. A celebrity doesn't have to try to be a good role model. They are famous because they worked hard at what they love for a living. They should try to make good choices for themselves, not their fans. Lots of stars have to post apology（道歉）letters after being caught doing bad things. It's good, but if the only reason is to win back their fans, it's not good.
I think everyone should try to be a good role model, even if you are not a celebrity! You can still be a role model to your sisters and brothers, a younger neighbor, or anyone. But I think celebrities should be very good, because they are role models for so many people! Although it is a wonderful thing to be a good role model, that's not what the celebrities must do. They are famous because they love what they do and are good at it. Being a role model is never in the job. If the celebrity knows they are affecting the young people, they should try hard to set a good example.
26.Which of the following reasons is NOT from the pros
A.People look up to the celebrities.
B.Everyone should try to be a good role model.
C.Celebrities get much love and support from fans.
D.Celebrities are models for many people.
According to the cons, how do some people become famous
A.By working hard at what they love.
B.By setting a good example to others.
C.By affecting the young people.
D.By making good choices for themselves
28.What can we learn from their words
A. It is easy for stars to win back fans.
B.Stars may sometimes do something wrong.
C.Family members should encourage kids to be stars.
D.Even though a celebrity makes mistakes, young people should follow him.
B
Sometimes a book can help change history. One book that certainly did was Uncle Tom's Cabin, written by Stowe. It was a book that spoke out against slavery.（奴隶制度）.
As Stowe wrote her book, there were over 3.5 million slaves in the United States. Slaves were usually in the cotton growing states of the South. The Northern States had ended slavery. Yet, most Northerners were not strongly against, slavery. They did not mind that slavery continued in the South.
Stowe decided to make people understand that slavery was very bad. Each night after putting her six children to bed, she worked on her book. She told the story of an old slave, Tom and Simon, a slave owner. She also told how the slaves tried to run away for freedom. Uncle Tom's Cabin first came out in 1852. Over 300,000 books were sold out in a year.
People had different ideas about the book. In the North, many people finally believed that slavery must be ended after they read the book.In the South, many people were very angry at the people in the North. By 1861 the two parts of the country were at war. The Civil War（南北战争）, which lasted until 1865, finally brought an end to slavery at last.
Of course, there were many things that made the Civil War happen. Yet, Uncle Tom's Cabin surely played a part. Stowe met President Lincoln in 1862. As Lincoln took her hand, he said, "So you are the little woman who started the big war."
29.Uncle Tom's Cabin was___________.
A.a book about Stowe B.a history book
C.a book that helped change history D.a book about the American Civil War
30.Before Uncle Tom's Cabin came out, most Northerners___________
A.were slaves in the South B.understood that slavery was wrong
C.kept slaves in their homes D.did not know how bad slavery was
31.While many Northerners agreed with Stowe, ___________
A.many Southerners disagreed with her B.many Southerners did not read the book
C.many Southerners wanted war D.some slaves tried to run away from the North
32.From the text, we can see that___________.
A.Stowe was a very young woman
B.Stowe's husband was dead when she wrote the story
C.Stowe could not work on her book(at(all/during the daytime
D.Stowe wrote the book with stories from her six children

Many people think stress is bad for health. It raises the risk of everything from the common cold to serious diseases. Usually, we turn stress into the enemy.
However, a study has given us a whole new look at it. In the study, if people with lots of stress don't believe stress can harm them, they will have the lowest risk of dying, including people with a little stress.
Can changing how you think about stress make you healthier Science says yes. When you change your mind about stress, you can change your body's response to stress. People who consider the stress response as helpful for their life are less stressed, less worried and more confident. How you think and act can change your experience of stress. When you choose to think your stress response is helpful, you create the biology of courage. When you are stressed and choose to communicate with others, you can create resilience（韧性）.
You can get away from the bad influences of stress on your health. The most amazing thing is that stress makes you social. Your stress response wants to make sure you notice others in trouble so that you can support each other. When life is hard, your stress response wants you to stay with people who care about you.
Also, stress is not useless. It helps us reach our hearts. Our kindness finds joy and meaning in contacting others. Your heart beats so fast to give you strength and energy. You should think of stress in a new way. If so, you're not just getting better at stress. You can trust yourself to deal with challenges and believe you don't have to face them on your own.
How do you make a choice between a stressful life and without stress Stress lies in many meaningful things. So the best answer is to go after what creates meaning in your life.
Then trust yourself to deal with the stress that follows and make friends with it.
