Sit With Us
You're at your new school. It's lunch time, but you don't have anyone to sit with. You want to join someone at their table, 1 you're not sure if they're friendly. What do you do Natalie's 2 of solving the problem was to create（创建）an app. She knows what it feels like to be alone at a new school. She found it difficult to make new friends and had to 3 a new table at lunch every day. If she sat 4 , she felt lonely. But if she asked to join someone and was 5 , she felt embarrassed（尴尬的）. She created a lunch-planning app to help students like 6 find people to have lunch with.
The app---called Sit With Us-is 7 to use. If a student is having lunch, he or she can create an invitation. Other students can open the app and 8 that invitation. They can then use the app to decide when and where to 9 . This allows students to make 10 online instead of face-to-face. This is the reason why it works so 11 : It lowers the risk of being refused, and the embarrassment that goes along with it.
Natalie is 12 to see that people are replying to her app actively-especially those who suffer from bullying（遭受欺凌）. Soon after she made her app available to the public, she won a prize for it. She 13 appeared in many news stories.
Natalie was even asked to speak at a university. In her 14 , Natalie wanted people to know that you don't have to do something 15 to change lives. Sometimes, a simple thing-like having a friend to enjoy lunch with---can make all the difference.

When I was a girl growing up, I cannot once ever remember either my mum or my grandma wasting（浪费）food.
Anything we didn't eat at one meal was leftovers. I can remember my grandma making a large pot of potatoes. We would all eat until we were full enough, but there were always about half of the potatoes left over. A few days later, Grandma would take those potatoes out, cook some noodles, add some vegetables and mix them all together. And I also remember I watched my mum cook meat for us in the mornings. She would always take the oil carefully and pour it into a container. Then she would use the oil later to add taste to many other dishes. Before I grew up, I never knew potatoes didn't taste like meat at all.
I learned their lessons well, and after I grew up, I tried not to waste food myself. I always planned the next week's meals and only bought the things on the plan so that nothing went to waste.
Every meal went into our mouths, and either my family or my dogs ate any leftover later. To me, throwing food was just a terrible thing.
However, when it comes to life, there are no leftovers. Life is just like a feast. Each day is a fresh beginning. Live each minute of your life to the fullest.

A. It is never too old to learn. B. Eat to live, but not live to eat.
C. We shouldn't waste food or life. D. There is no such thing as a free lunch.
D
Ever wonder why you can go over a book again and again and still be lost when tested on what you have read It may be because you haven't practised remembering.
Remembering is a useful way to help us learn. Some of us remember best by listening, some by re-reading and others learn best by using pictures and diagrams（图表）. Schools try many of these different ways to help students "download" new information.
But a recent study from Purdue University, the USA, says that successful learning means being able to recall information at any moment.
"Our view is that learning is not about studying or getting knowledge ‘in memory’," said Jeffrey Karpicke, lead researcher."Learning is about retrieving（寻回）. So it is important to make retrieval practice an important part of the learning process."
The research studied two groups of students. Both groups learned something from a text. One group made diagrams about the text. This method（方法）is called concept mapping. The other group put the text away after learning it and tried recalling the concepts from memory.
Then, both groups were tested（被测试）on the information they had learned. Both groups scored well at recalling the learned information. However, when they were asked to return one week later, the group who made diagrams scored better than the group who did not use concept mapping. So by drawing concept maps, we are able to recall information far better, which will help us to study.
Our minds, just like our bodies, have to practise activities to become good at them.
（ ）27. Which of the following ways of remembering is NOT mentioned in Paragraph 2
A. Listening. B. Re-reading.
C. Speaking. D. Using pictures and diagrams.
（ ）28. According to Jeffrey Karpicke, learning is about _____.
A. studying knowledge from memory B. getting and recalling knowledge
C. practising drawing photos and maps D. getting knowledge from memory
（ ）29. What does the underlined part "concept mapping" in Paragraph 5 mean in Chinese
A.心电图 B.概念图 C.规划图 D.线路图
（ ）30. What can we tell from the story
A. Our minds need to practise to remember things.
B. It's impossible to remember everything we've learned.
C. How to get knowledge by concept mapping.
D. Concept mapping is the only way to learn.

When I was a girl growing up, I cannot once ever remember either my mum or my grandma wasting（浪费）food.
Anything we didn't eat at one meal was leftovers. I can remember my grandma making a large pot of potatoes. We would all eat until we were full enough, but there were always about half of the potatoes left over. A few days later, Grandma would take those potatoes out, cook some noodles, add some vegetables and mix them all together. And I also remember I watched my mum cook meat for us in the mornings. She would always take the oil carefully and pour it into a container. Then she would use the oil later to add taste to many other dishes. Before I grew up, I never knew potatoes didn't taste like meat at all.
I learned their lessons well, and after I grew up, I tried not to waste food myself. I always planned the next week's meals and only bought the things on the plan so that nothing went to waste.
Every meal went into our mouths, and either my family or my dogs ate any leftover later. To me, throwing food was just a terrible thing.
However, when it comes to life, there are no leftovers. Life is just like a feast. Each day is a fresh beginning. Live each minute of your life to the fullest.

Ever wonder why you can go over a book again and again and still be lost when tested on what you have read It may be because you haven't practised remembering.
Remembering is a useful way to help us learn. Some of us remember best by listening, some by re-reading and others learn best by using pictures and diagrams（图表）. Schools try many of these different ways to help students "download" new information.
But a recent study from Purdue University, the USA, says that successful learning means being able to recall information at any moment.
"Our view is that learning is not about studying or getting knowledge ‘in memory’," said Jeffrey Karpicke, lead researcher."Learning is about retrieving（寻回）. So it is important to make retrieval practice an important part of the learning process."
The research studied two groups of students. Both groups learned something from a text. One group made diagrams about the text. This method（方法）is called concept mapping. The other group put the text away after learning it and tried recalling the concepts from memory.
Then, both groups were tested（被测试）on the information they had learned. Both groups scored well at recalling the learned information. However, when they were asked to return one week later, the group who made diagrams scored better than the group who did not use concept mapping. So by drawing concept maps, we are able to recall information far better, which will help us to study.
Our minds, just like our bodies, have to practise activities to become good at them.

Have you ever used coloured pencils for anything other than drawing Artist Le Xuan Huong from Vietnam has. He uses them to make home decor products（家居装饰产品） like clocks, vases （花瓶） and tables.
Huong showed an interest in drawing at an early age. His father often bought him coloured pencils. They have always been his best friends. When he went to study at Hanoi University of Industrial Fine Arts, he started thinking about how to use them for other purposes（用途）besides drawing.
As a student, Huong travelled a lot. During his trips to many countries, he was impressed （使……印象深刻）by the different styles of home decor. He wanted to make great home decor products for Vietnamese people, so he started his brand（品牌）Henry Le Design.
The coloured pencils helped Huong to have many creative ideas. At first, he made a vase with a lot of pencils and it looked amazing. A few years ago, Huong made a coloured-pencil table and it surprised the furniture market in Vietnam. He became the first artist to make a coloured-pencil table.
Bruce McDougal, an Australian working in Vietnam, bought not one but two coloured-pencil tables from Huong. "I have never seen anything like them before. They are creative, artistic and handmade," said Bruce.
