4.阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。
Recently a man was killed in a forest in northern Jiangsu. The police checked the area for clues and brought all the things they found to us. The most important thing they found was the bullet but they also brought us a half-eaten apple. We thought that it was possible that the murderer ate the apple while he was waiting for the victim to come along. The first thing we did was look at the bite marks(咬痕) in the apple. They were very unusual. We could see that the murderer had a very wide mouth. We built a model mouth to fit the bite marks and from the model mouth we were able to build a model head. This gave the police some ideas of what the murderer looked like. Then we matched the model head to pictures of people who had been arrested before. We found three possible matches. Next, we checked the apple for fingerprints and also checked the area where the victim was shot again. We measured(测量) the distance the bullet had travelled and worked out how tall the man who shot the bullet was. We knew we were looking for a very tall man. We also checked the bullet to discover exactly which gun fired it. The apple was also sent for DNA testing. With all the information, we knew exactly which man we were looking for, and the police found and arrested him easily. The gun was found in his house and the criminal would be in prison for life. And so the crime was solved by using science!

The wise man thought about this problem for months. One night he appeared at the rich man's house with a big smile on his face. He said, "I've done it! My calculations are perfect! You'll be rich beyond your wildest dreams." The rich man was very delighted to go on a long journey. He promised the wise man double pay to run his business for him.
When the rich man returned, he found that all of his money was gone. Very angry, he asked the wise man to explain. The wise man told him he'd given everything away. The wise man said, "I analyzed (分析) how a single rich man could gain the biggest wealth. But it is limited how much one man can do by himself. Then I realized that many people could help us achieve our goal. By helping other people, you could gain most."
Disappointed and angry, the rich man went away. As he was walking, several neighbours saw him. All of them had their share when the wise man gave away the man's wealth. They were so thankful that they welcomed him to their homes and offered anything he needed.

6. Jesselyn Silva's average day isn't like most 13-year-old girls' average days. She runs, hits a punching bag, and practices sparring (虚晃一拳) against her coach—all before she has to concentrate on school. Jesselyn, a world-class boxer, is exactly not ordinary.
Jesselyn started boxing when she was seven years old. Jesselyn said, "One day I saw my dad hitting the bag and I wanted to do what he was doing." Then she had a dream to be one of the best female boxers of all time.
She says one of the things she enjoys most about boxing is the tight-knit circle—a group of people who are closely connected with each other. It has helped her create. She and her father have made many friends through the sport. "Everyone gets along and everyone knows each other," she said. "I like how everyone treats each other." The respect that Jesselyn and other boxers show to one another is rooted in their shared understanding of the sacrifice it takes to make it in the ring.
Jesselyn wrote a memoir (自传), My Corner of the Ring, which is an inspirational story of her journey in the sport. She wrote it to encourage other girls to let go of their fears of competing. "To girls who are interested in boxing, it might seem scary at first," she said. "But once you do it and get in the ring, it's really fun. Boxing is about facing fears and overcoming them." "It takes a lot of hard work to compete," Jesselyn said. "You have to have desire. And if you have the desire to be great, you have to go for it."
Jesselyn believes that women are getting more and more attention in the sport of boxing. Her dream is to go to the 2024 Olympics, turn pro, and become a world champion. With her hard work, Jesselyn Silva seems to be on the way to making her dream come true.

An 11-year-old schoolboy Gabriel Muniz, who was born without feet, will fly from his home in Brazil to take part in the Spanish club's summer training camp. Although he is disabled, Muniz is one of the top players at the school and captain of his gym class. He can run, dribble, pass and strike the ball as well as any of his able-bodied teammates. He spends all his spare time on the football pitch.
His best friend Lucas Santos spoke about his abilities on a video for The Sun, "He is skillful, he goes after it, he is fearless and he knows how to organize plays. He also makes good passes." Mum Sandra was thrilled that her son would achieve his dreams. She said, "He started walking before he was one. We would go after him, expecting him to keep falling, but he never fell." Muniz's gym teacher added, "He is challenging the social norms (标准). When he arrived there, no one believed in him." But he showed to everyone that he could play as well as any other boy. So he was invited to go to Spain to show his talent.
The Spanish La Liga soccer club has offered to fly Muniz to Spain in September, where he'll be able to show off his "fancy footwork" and meet his idol, a soccer player Lionel Messi.

8. Always believe in yourself no matter what happens to you and love the person that you are. These are laws of life that are useful to everyone. I think that before people can live happy lives, they must believe in and accept themselves.
The hardest thing for you to do is to look in the mirror and like what you see, and then be thankful. And believe you can finish anything you try to do. To live a comfortable life, you must start with believing in yourself.
I have struggled with believing in myself so many times in my life. Struggling with little tasks such as completing homework or memorising a piece on the piano, I would get so upset. But you never realize how much easier your life will become until you say, "I can do this!"
Four or five years ago, I began taking piano lessons. One day, recital time was coming near, but I had a piece that I couldn't completely ing home with a feeling of sadness, I just considered I could not achieve this task.
I sat at my piano and told myself that I would never get it finished. But on second thought, I could memorise it. So, I tried my best to play and play. Finally, I did end up finishing the piece, and the recital was able to go smoothly. The important point is that looking back on this time in my life, I can see how important it is to believe that I can complete anything I want to do if I try my best.
Now, when I become upset with a piano piece, I never give up and think that I cannot do it. Always beginning with confidence, I sit down and tell myself that I can achieve my goal if I put my mind to it. I realize that I should have this mind in everything I do.
So, dear friend, never give up, and believe that you can complete anything if you set your mind and heart on it.

9. It was a hard year for my family. Whenever my mum looked over at the tree and presents, she would warn us, "There won't be as much for Christmas this year. Try not to be disappointed." Christmas had traditionally been a time for my parents to make us happy. In years past, we had a lot of presents here and there, taking over the living room.
On Christmas morning, we nervously waited in the hallway until Dad told us everything was ready. We rushed into the living room and let the wrapping paper fly. "Here's another one for you," said Mum as she handed me a package. I looked at it, confused. Having spent so much time examining the presents before Christmas, I recognized this one. But it had not been mine. It was my mum's. A new label (标签) had been put on it, with my name written in my mother's handwriting.
"Mum, I can't…"
I was stopped by my mother's eager, joyful look—a look I could not really understand. "Let's see what it is, honey. Hurry and open it."
It was a blow dryer. Though this may seem a simple gift, to me it was so much more. Being an eleven-year-old girl, I was stunned. In my world, where receiving outweighed giving, my mum's act of selflessness was incomprehensible. It was a huge act. Tears filled my eyes and I thought in disbelief about how much my mum must love me to give up her Christmas present so I could have a few more presents.
I have always remembered that Christmas. It had such an effect on me. As a mother with children in my life whom I love, I can now understand my mum's action because giving truly is better than receiving. My mum's simple act meant the world to me.

10. High school biology teacher Kelly Chavis knew smartphones were a problem in her class. But not even the students realized how much of a problem the smartphones were until Chavis did an in-class experiment.
For one class period, students used a whiteboard to count every message, call or other notices that appeared on their phones. Chavis told students not to respond to these notices.
"One girl, just during the one hour, got close to 150 notices. 150!" she said.
Chavis is among a growing number of teachers, parents and health experts who believe that smartphones are now partly the cause of increasing the levels of student worries.
Tests, after-school activities and problems at home can increase stress for students.
But research now suggests that smartphones and social media are some of the main reasons for the rising anxiety levels.
"What a lot of teens told me is that they feel worried without social media and their phones," she said. This use of phones has led to a loss of sleep and face-to-face interactions necessary for their mental well-being.
Nearly 60 percent of parents said they worry about the influence of social media on their child's physical and mental health. Some parents are not letting their children get smartphones until they grow up.
Schools are starting to take steps to solve the problem. Many public schools pay outside companies to watch students' social media activity for signs of distress. Others invite in yoga (瑜伽) teachers and comfort dogs to help calm students.
(1) The students in Kelly Chavis' class _____.
A．never play smartphones in class
B．get more than 150 notices every hour
