School was always something I loved because I always enjoyed learning more. I never felt afraid of going to school early in the morning, and I never tried to get out of any work. I stayed after school every chance I got. I did most of the work I could, got the best grades I could, and in the end, I graduated from high school with honors. All my success was because of the teachers I had who helped me, pushed me, and made learning a fun thing to do.
At the beginning of the school year, I had a lot of trouble leaving my mom in the mornings, but Mrs Trainer always sat with me, talked with me, and helped me feel OK without my mom. She was understanding, kind, and always made the classroom a comfortable place. Mrs Trainer also sat down and helped me learn; I was, and still am, the worst speller, but she tried her hardest to help me.
The second was my senior high school English teacher, Mr Stonerock. Mr Stonerock was able to make English and writing fun, especially when we had eight-page papers to hand in. Some of my favorite high school memories (记忆)were in his classes. Mr Stonerock also taught my class APA format (格式)which to me is invaluable. I use it every day in my life. He put up with so many shenanigans (恶作剧) from my classmates and me and always did them with a smile.
My point to all of this is that there are amazing and caring teachers out there whether they teach college level classes, high school level classes, or primary level classes. I have had more influential teachers than I can count. I am still in touch with some of my high school teachers, who give me life advice and guide me. Teachers are invaluable resources (资源) and no one can take their place.

This summer my mom and I did something meaningful and interesting.
Because of the stresses of high school, I felt depressed from time to time. What was worse, I began to eat many junk foods. As a result, I had gained a lot of weight.
My mom decided to take me to work out, and she cooked delicious and healthy snacks for me. However, I broke my word and bought high-calorie snacks. My mom found my snack wrappers in the garbage. She got really angry and told me something I will remember forever. She said, “My dear, I can forget the fact that you cheated, but you shouldn't.Remember it's not all about losing weight but about your whole life. If you want to achieve something, take it seriously, and persist (坚持) no matter what happens.”
Since then, we have been out running each morning, and we do some yoga in the evening. We sing and laugh while running along the empty roads. Day by day, I am feeling better. Exercise is helping to strengthen my body and refresh my spirits. At the same time, my mom and I cook different dishes together. Isn't it amazing that I'm making such tasty-looking foods myself Cooking brings great joy to me.
These times with my mom have changed my whole attitude to life. I have started to learn the importance of sticking to goals and how to relax. As the famous Brazilian soccer player Pele said, “With_strong_will,_the_feet_are_equal_to_a_pair_of_wings.”

Starting a new term always feels a little bit like a beginning of a new year. Last year, as a fresher, I felt a little worried at the beginning of each term. That's why, this year, I want to start the term with a positive (积极的) mind. I have collected some ways that can really help improve my confidence.
It has been found that if we want to succeed, we should break our new plan into smaller tasks. It sounds easy, but how do we start It is a good idea to write down things you will do every evening. Start with the most important task and then focus on smaller tasks that you are sure you will be able to complete. If you are not a fan of a paper to-do list, there are so many fun apps. Sticking to the plan will stop you from doing everything at the last minute.
It is also very important to stay active. Set a goal of 10,000 steps a day or go for a run with a friend. Honestly, you don't even need to go to a gym, because there are different kinds of exercises online. You can even stretch (伸展) for 15 minutes every day. Just choose whatever works for you. Exercise can improve our ability to sleep, reduce stress (压力) and make us healthy.
Before starting the term, think of your goals — not only those towards which you are working, but also those that you've already managed to achieve. Don't feel too anxious, notice your progress and always remember to take a rest. Keep in mind that everything takes time. Take a 10-minute rest between lessons, which can be a conversation with a friend, checking the news, or taking a walk. In short, do something for yourself.

The tree was upset.
One day, the boy returned and the tree was so joyful.“Come and play with me,” the tree said.
“I don't have time to play.I have to work for my family.We need a house for shelter.Can you help me?” “Sorry, I don't have a house.But you can cut off my branches to build your house.” So the boy cut all the branches of the tree and left with delight.

One hot summer day, the boy returned and the tree was delighted.“Come and play with me!” the tree requested.
“I am sad and becoming old.I want to go sailing to relax myself.Can you give me a boat?” “Use my trunk to build the boat and you can sail and be happy.” So the boy cut the tree's trunk to make a boat.He went sailing and did not show up for a long time.

Many years later, the boy finally returned. Tired, he returned to the apple tree.Seeing him, the tree said,“I'm sorry, boy, but now I have nothing for you.” “I don't intend to get anything from you. With time going by, I come to realize nothing is better than a comfortable place to rest,” said the boy. Hearing this, the tree began to smile, adding, “My dying trunk is suitable for you. Please come here and rest.” The boy did as told and the tree smiled happily.
Paragraph 2:
The apple tree is our mother. When we are young, she tries to attend to and play with us. After growing up, we leave her for some reasons and only come back when in trouble. But she is always out there, devoting whatever she owns without complaint. It is our happiness that she has been looking forward to. Therefore, try to put ourselves in her situation and show concern for her.UNIT 1 单元验收评价(二)—仿真高考检测

School was always something I loved because I always enjoyed learning more. I never felt afraid of going to school early in the morning, and I never tried to get out of any work. I stayed after school every chance I got. I did most of the work I could, got the best grades I could, and in the end, I graduated from high school with honors. All my success was because of the teachers I had who helped me, pushed me, and made learning a fun thing to do.
At the beginning of the school year, I had a lot of trouble leaving my mom in the mornings, but Mrs Trainer always sat with me, talked with me, and helped me feel OK without my mom. She was understanding, kind, and always made the classroom a comfortable place. Mrs Trainer also sat down and helped me learn; I was, and still am, the worst speller, but she tried her hardest to help me.
The second was my senior high school English teacher, Mr Stonerock. Mr Stonerock was able to make English and writing fun, especially when we had eight-page papers to hand in. Some of my favorite high school memories (记忆)were in his classes. Mr Stonerock also taught my class APA format (格式)which to me is invaluable. I use it every day in my life. He put up with so many shenanigans (恶作剧) from my classmates and me and always did them with a smile.
My point to all of this is that there are amazing and caring teachers out there whether they teach college level classes, high school level classes, or primary level classes. I have had more influential teachers than I can count. I am still in touch with some of my high school teachers, who give me life advice and guide me. Teachers are invaluable resources (资源) and no one can take their place.

This summer my mom and I did something meaningful and interesting.
Because of the stresses of high school, I felt depressed from time to time. What was worse, I began to eat many junk foods. As a result, I had gained a lot of weight.
My mom decided to take me to work out, and she cooked delicious and healthy snacks for me. However, I broke my word and bought high-calorie snacks. My mom found my snack wrappers in the garbage. She got really angry and told me something I will remember forever. She said, “My dear, I can forget the fact that you cheated, but you shouldn't.Remember it's not all about losing weight but about your whole life. If you want to achieve something, take it seriously, and persist (坚持) no matter what happens.”
Since then, we have been out running each morning, and we do some yoga in the evening. We sing and laugh while running along the empty roads. Day by day, I am feeling better. Exercise is helping to strengthen my body and refresh my spirits. At the same time, my mom and I cook different dishes together. Isn't it amazing that I'm making such tasty-looking foods myself Cooking brings great joy to me.
These times with my mom have changed my whole attitude to life. I have started to learn the importance of sticking to goals and how to relax. As the famous Brazilian soccer player Pele said, “With_strong_will,_the_feet_are_equal_to_a_pair_of_wings.”

Starting a new term always feels a little bit like a beginning of a new year. Last year, as a fresher, I felt a little worried at the beginning of each term. That's why, this year, I want to start the term with a positive (积极的) mind. I have collected some ways that can really help improve my confidence.
It has been found that if we want to succeed, we should break our new plan into smaller tasks. It sounds easy, but how do we start It is a good idea to write down things you will do every evening. Start with the most important task and then focus on smaller tasks that you are sure you will be able to complete. If you are not a fan of a paper to-do list, there are so many fun apps. Sticking to the plan will stop you from doing everything at the last minute.
It is also very important to stay active. Set a goal of 10,000 steps a day or go for a run with a friend. Honestly, you don't even need to go to a gym, because there are different kinds of exercises online. You can even stretch (伸展) for 15 minutes every day. Just choose whatever works for you. Exercise can improve our ability to sleep, reduce stress (压力) and make us healthy.
Before starting the term, think of your goals — not only those towards which you are working, but also those that you've already managed to achieve. Don't feel too anxious, notice your progress and always remember to take a rest. Keep in mind that everything takes time. Take a 10-minute rest between lessons, which can be a conversation with a friend, checking the news, or taking a walk. In short, do something for yourself.
12.How did the author feel when he started a new term last year
A.Anxious. B.Curious.
C.Confused. D.Confident.
13.What should we do to start a new term according to the second paragraph
A.Keep a diary. B.Change plans often.
C.Make a to-do list. D.Focus on what we like.
14.What does the author say about exercise
A.Online exercises are much better.
B.Taking exercise in a gym is useless.
C.We must spend a lot of time on exercise.
D.It is important to choose exercise that is helpful to us.
15.In which part of a newspaper can we read this text
A.Relationship. B.Lifestyle.
C.News. D.Travel.
