I’m a seventeen-year-old boy preparing for my A Level exams at the end of the year. In the society where my peers (同龄人) and I live, we tend to accept the rat race values. As students, we want to get good grades so that we can get good jobs. I enjoy studying and have always received A’s in my classes. There was a year when I finished first in my class in the final exams. It was a great achievement.
Another one I am pleased with is that I managed to improve the relationship between Mum and Dad. Dad was a successful businessman who was rarely at home. Mum was a housewife who always felt bored and nagged (唠叨) him to let her go to work. Their frequent arguing bothered me, so I advised Dad that Mum would be better off with a part-time job. He agreed, and their relationship has improved since then.
My most proud achievement, however, is my successful work in the local old folks’ home. My grandparents had raised me since I was a child. I wept (哭泣) bitterly when they died. Unlike many of my classmates, I do not take part in my school’s community service to earn points. I enjoy my voluntary work and believe I’m contributing to a worthwhile cause. This is where I can help. I talk to the elderly, help them with their daily life, and listen to their problems, happy days and the hardships they experienced.
Last year, I hosted a successful New Year party for the elderly and they enjoyed a great time. Many expressed a desire to attend another party the following year. When I reflect on my accomplishments, I’m especially proud of my service at the old folks’ home, so I hope to study social work at university and work as a social worker in the future. I wish to be more skilled in attending to the less fortunate as well as find great satisfaction in it, after all.

Researchers in Shanghai are developing a robot “guide dog” that could help blind people. The robot is now being tested in Shanghai.
The machine uses cameras and sensors (传感器) to sense its environment. It is able to recognize (辨认出) traffic lights which traditional guide dogs are unable to recognize. The robot can communicate by listening to and speaking with a blind person. The robot also uses artificial intelligence (AI) to recognize voices and plan ways to go from place to place.
The robot dog is about the size of an English bulldog but a little wider than a real dog. It has six legs instead of four because the researchers say the extra legs enhance its safety, making its movements smoother.
41-year-old Li Fei and 42-year-old Zhu Sibin are among the people with eye problems who are helping the Jiao Tong University team. They are testing the dog using Chinese-language instructions and providing their feedback (反馈) for the researchers to further develop the dog.
Li is completely blind while Zhu has little eyesight. Li normally uses a walking stick to walk. He said, “If this robot guide dog comes onto the market and I could use it, at least it could solve some of my problems in traveling alone.”
Robot guide dogs are also under development in Australia and Britain. But China needs a lot of traditional guide dogs. There are just over 400 guide dogs in China for nearly 20 million blind people.
Many workplaces, restaurants and public areas do not welcome a usual guide dog like a Labrador. The supply of real dogs is limited (限制) by feeding and training needs. The production of robot guide dogs could be increased to an industrial level, especially in a center of making industry like China. The researchers think there could be a large market for robot dogs as there might be tens of millions of people in the world who need guide dogs.
7. What is one advantage of the robot guide dog according to the text
A. It can work at any time. B. It follows the traffic lights.
C. It costs much less to keep. D. It can find the way more easily.
8. What does the underlined word “enhance” in paragraph 3 mean
A. Report. B. Record. C. Show. D. Increase.
9. Why are Li Fei and Zhu Sibin mentioned in the text
A. They prefer experiencing modern inventions.
B. They’re experts in developing robot guide dogs.
C. They play a part in improving robot guide dogs.
D. They depend on real guide dogs for traveling around.
10. What is the future of robot guide dogs like according to the researchers
A. Worrying. B. Challenging. C. Uncertain. D. Hopeful.

C. Besides, having trouble with the native language often makes them unwilling to communicate with other people. Actually, staying in a foreign country helps you to know more of the new culture.

Four Ways to Beat Summer Weight Gain
When we think of the summer holiday,most of us think of outdoor fun. So it seems like we should naturally lose weight over the summer holiday. In reality,the summer holiday isn’t all beach volleyball and water sports. Therefore,we can gain weight easily in the summer holiday.___12___ Here are four ways to beat summer weight gain.
1.___13___ When we don’t have a plan,it’s easy to spend the summer holiday moving from the couch to the computer,with regular stops before the fridge. Avoid this by aiming for a specific goal,like volunteering,mastering a new skill,or working at a job. Just be sure to plan for some free time so you can relax a little!
2. Stay busy. When we’re bored,it’s easy to fall into a trap of doing nothing and then feeling low on energy. In addition to helping you avoid the cookie jar, filling your days with stuff to do can give you a sense of accomplishment.___14___
3. Beat the heat. Don’t let summer heat put your exercise plans on hold.___15___ If a gym isn’t your scene, try bowling or an indoor climbing wall. If you love being outdoors, move a regular run or soccer game to early morning or evening.
4.___16___ With school out, we lose our daily routines. If you don’t have a specific job or an activity to get up for,it’s easy to sleep late, watch too much TV,and snack more than usual. Make sure your summer days have some structure—like getting up at the same time each day. Plan activities for specific times,like exercising before breakfast.
A. Stick to a schedule.
B. Get going with goals.
C. Relax by walking outside.
D. Move your workout indoors.
E. We usually stay at home in the summer holiday.
F. That’s especially true if a dream summer job falls through.
G. However,it’s easy to avoid this problem if we know what to look out for.

Four Ways to Beat Summer Weight Gain
When we think of the summer holiday,most of us think of outdoor fun. So it seems like we should naturally lose weight over the summer holiday. In reality,the summer holiday isn’t all beach volleyball and water sports. Therefore,we can gain weight easily in the summer holiday.___12___ Here are four ways to beat summer weight gain.
1.___13___ When we don’t have a plan,it’s easy to spend the summer holiday moving from the couch to the computer,with regular stops before the fridge. Avoid this by aiming for a specific goal,like volunteering,mastering a new skill,or working at a job. Just be sure to plan for some free time so you can relax a little!
2. Stay busy. When we’re bored,it’s easy to fall into a trap of doing nothing and then feeling low on energy. In addition to helping you avoid the cookie jar, filling your days with stuff to do can give you a sense of accomplishment.___14___
3. Beat the heat. Don’t let summer heat put your exercise plans on hold.___15___ If a gym isn’t your scene, try bowling or an indoor climbing wall. If you love being outdoors, move a regular run or soccer game to early morning or evening.
4.___16___ With school out, we lose our daily routines. If you don’t have a specific job or an activity to get up for,it’s easy to sleep late, watch too much TV,and snack more than usual. Make sure your summer days have some structure—like getting up at the same time each day. Plan activities for specific times,like exercising before breakfast.
A. Stick to a schedule.
B. Get going with goals.
C. Relax by walking outside.
D. Move your workout indoors.
E. We usually stay at home in the summer holiday.

【答案】Dear Chris,
I am sorry to hear that you’re having trouble with your school life. Such problems are quite normal for a student who has just come into high school. Perhaps the following suggestions maybe helpful.
First, I think you may need to communicate with your classmates as much as possible. In this way, you will get to know each other better. What’s more, it might be a good idea for you to take part in more activities, which usually involve teamwork and interactions with other students and are good for developing friendly relationships. Besides, faced with some tough problems, you might consider asking your teachers, who can usually offer you some sensible suggestions.
I sincerely hope my advice will be of some help to you. If there is anything more I can do to help, please let me know.
Yours,
Li Hua
