I was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled (贴标签) everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.
War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed ” Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.
The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬) under her covers, sobbing. Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.
Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn’t notice Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me, “Thanks.”
Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn’t always agree, but we learned the key to living together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on.

Have you ever found yourself in a group of people with similar ways of thinking and interests to yours They understand you. They really get you. They may even be wearing similar clothing to yours. We have a great expression for this: Birds of a feather flock together. This means people of the same kind or with the same tastes and interests often find each other.
We have many similar expressions, and many of them use the word “mind” or “brain.” If someone thinks like me, I can say we are like-minded. I can also say we are of the same mind. There is also something called a hive mind. In a beehive; the bees all work together to reach the same goal. People who are part of a hive mind have similar thoughts, ideas, and opinions.
If you are a spiritual kind of person, you can call them your kindred spirits (灵魂伴侣). If you are more of a science person, you can say you are on the same wavelength. And if you are a person who likes to make things, you can use the expression: cut from the same cloth. All these expressions mean the same thing — you feel a strong connection to someone and feel very similar to them.
We have another expression that can also be used in this situation. But we only use it when we have a similar idea with another person: Great minds think alike. If you often listen to VOA Learning English, you belong to a community of like-minded people: People who want to practice their English.

What you do after studying could have a big impact on how well you learn and remember. Today on Education Tips, we will explore two no-cost ways that can help you improve your learning: wakeful rest and sleep.
When many students finish studying, they often go straight to another activity. Perhaps they look at their phone or computer. They might even play a video game or watch television. But research suggests that resting after your study may help you remember what you have studied.
The basic idea is this: by stopping your activity after the study, your brain gets a chance to rest. Resting is difficult when you are playing computer games.
While this might sound unusual to you, many studies have explored the benefits of resting after learning — what is called “wakeful rest”.
A 2019 study found that both young and older adults were able to better remember information they learned after doing wakeful rest.
If you want to give “wakeful rest” a try, here are a few simple things to do. Rest quietly for five to ten minutes. Do not look at your phone, read stories or play games. It is really that easy!
Besides wakeful rest, sleep is also important for learning. The Division of Sleep Medicine at Harvard Medical School (HMS) notes that sleep helps people to learn in two ways. A report on the school’s website explains that “a sleep-deprived person cannot focus attention well and therefore cannot learn well.” It also says, “Sleep itself helps us to memorize and that memorizing is very important for learning new information.”
The National Sleep Foundation (NSF) suggests that adults between the ages of 20 and 64 get about between 6 and 7 hours of sleep per day. Teenagers may need a little bit more, and people over the age of 65 may need a little less.
Try to get some “wakeful rest” after a study. Then try to get a good night’s sleep. That’s it — a simple, no-cost way to help you remember what you learn.
32．According to the research, shortly after studying students are recommended ______
A．To take a wakeful rest. B．To play a video game.
C．To have a nice sleep at night. D．To read a newspaper.
33．How long should teenagers sleep each day according to NSF
A．Less than 6 hours. B．No more than 7 hours.
C．Around 8 hours. D．Just 7 hours.
34．What’s paragraph 3 mainly about
A．The importance of sleep. B．The types of resting activities.
C．The good ways to get a rest. D．The reason for having a rest.
35．What can be a suitable title for the text
A．Low-cost Tips on Working.
B．Good Things to Do After Your Study.
C．Why Do We Need to Have a Good Sleep
D．How Long Should We Rest After Learning

My head started spinning and my heart began racing a million miles a minute when our teacher gave us the assignment to talk about someone we were grateful for in front of the whole class.
"I'm so nervous that I can hardly catch my breath!" I told my friend Mareya. "You've been in at least three plays," Mareya pointed out. "If you don't get stage fright in front of those big audiences, why are you bothered by a few kids in our class ” “Maybe in a play you're part of a group and you say lines from a script (剧本)." I shook my head. "There are so many people I'm grateful for. There's no way I could possibly pick just one. Plus, even if I picked one, I'd have no idea what to say. Plus even if I figured out what to say, I'm a million-percent positive I'd mess up if I tried to say it out loud! I'd be standing there with everyone staring at me, waiting for words to come out of my mouth." I put my hands over my ears and said, “I don't want to talk about it!”
But one thing about really good friends who know you really well is that they don't always do exactly what you ask them to. She drew a funny elephant on a piece of paper with the word BREATHE coming out of its trunk. “This is Franky,” she giggled, "the ‘everything's going to be all right’ elephant." “Franky's the best," I said, “How about he talks in front of the class so I don't have to ” Mareya held the picture up to her car. “What's that you say, Franky You think Arizona should come over to my house this weekend so we can work on our talks together ”

第一节（满分15分）
To get a better understanding of students eating habits and raise their awareness of health, our class conducted a survey entitled “How often meals are skipped". The results are as follows.
The percentage of students who skip meals once a day and several times a week is respectively 50% and 8%. However, those who never skip meals only account for 37%. With the development of economy，students have a lot of choices to eat. More and more students are keen to snacks, skipping regular meals, which does great harm to their health, and even their study.
As far as I am concerned, it's urgent for student themselves to improve their self-discipline and it's also urgent for parent and teachers to strengthen their guidance.

Paragraph 1:
We met on Saturday and tried to decide on our pick. The more I racked my brains, the more restless I became. As time ticked away, I still failed to make the final decision while Mareya already got her work done. To ease my pressure, she kept comforting me and offered some suggestions for my reference. Suddenly, it occurred to me that the person I was grateful for was right before my eyes. Flinging my arms around Mareya's neck, I told her that I had a brilliant idea but I would rather keep it to myself until the presentation.
Paragraph 2:
Monday morning came. With butterflies in my stomach, I waited anxiously for my turn. The moment my name was called, I jumped to my feet and hurtled myself to the stage. Casting a sweeping look at the whole class, I focused my eyes on Mareya and started my presentation. “Among all the people I feel indebted to, I'd like to extend my sincere thanks to my best friend Mareya. Without her support and encouragement, I wouldn’t have been here." The rest of the presentation went smoothly. In the midst of thunderous applause, I came running down the stage and gave Mareya a big bear hug. It is true that a good friend is the one who always keeps you company and backs you up in times of difficulties.
