"Mom, I want a cat, " or" Mom I want a dog, " or" Mom, I want a. . . , " are common words that parents may hear from their children more than once. However, there are many arguments for and against children owning pets.
The first argument that supports pet ownership by children is that they are good company. When children come home from school, pets are always there to greet them. They love children and always love to play. As a result, children won't be lonely. They will also help to keep children active as they will need to be walked and played with every day.
▲ Pets need to be taken care of every day. Children will learn different skills that they can use later in life. For example, washing and feeding pets are important skills to learn. Learning these responsibilities will be good for their future life. Caring for pets also shows them how to be kind and patient.
On the other hand, some pets can be dangerous. Some dogs, for example, may hurt others, and children may become afraid of animals as a result of this happening to them. Cats also look very soft, but they do have very sharp claws. If they are treated in the wrong way, cats can use their claws to scratch.
Besides, pets require a great deal of care. Many pets need showers, exercise and so on. As a result of this, children may neglect their studies because they are too busy worrying about their pet and its health.
A further argument against pet ownership is that pets are costly; buying food and caring them is expensive. Finally, the cost of owning one falls on parents, and as a result, children don't fully understand the responsibility of having one.
In short, there are many arguments for and against pet ownership. Pets help to keep children company, fit, and they also help them to learn new responsibilities. However, pets can be dangerous, they require a lot of care, and they cost a lot of money to be taken care of properly.

Everyone wants a blue ribbon（丝带）because it's the best in sports. However, I was never a blue ribbon person because I was always the last in races. In baseball I either got hit on the head or dropped the ball. In basketball I was fine as long as there weren't nine other people playing with me.
During the spring, our class had a field trip to a park. Then it was time for games. Teachers tied our feet together. One little boy became my partner. This little boy was the strongest boy in our class. He always won, but with me, he didn't have a chance. He tied his arm with mine. The gun shot, and we were off to the other side. Unbelievably, we were in the lead! Unexpectedly, before my feet reached the finish line, I fell down. We were so close that my partner could have easily dragged（拖拉） me across the finish line and won. But he didn't. Instead, he stopped and helped me stand up, as the other couple crossed the finish line.
When we graduated 3 years later, I gave a speech to that same group of students, and told them about that little boy who had made a decision that helping a friend up was more important than winning a blue ribbon. In my speech I told them that I wouldn't tell which of the guys was the little boy although he was up on the stage with me. I wouldn't tell because, in truth, at one time all of them could be that little boy——helping me up when I fell. Each of them could take time out from their own work to help a person in need.
You may not have a blue ribbon to tell others that you are a winner, but I hope you have at least a few friends. They remember you for taking time out from your work for that blue ribbon to help them.

C．He stopped to help the writer stand up.
D．He laughed at the writer's silly mistake.

①China is making big efforts to help people control their weight and live healthier lives. The government has started a three-year "Weight Management Year" plan from 2024 to 2027 to fight against being too heavy. Being too heavy can cause serious health problems like sugar sickness and heart disease. Here's what you should know about the new guidelines (准则).
②First, it's important to check your BMI (体重指数). For adults, a healthy BMI is between 18.5 and 24. If your BMI is between 24 and 28, you are overweight. A BMI of 28 or more means you are extremely overweight. Also, doctors suggest measuring your waist (腰围). Men should keep their waist under 90 cm, and women under 85 cm.
③When it comes to food, choose whole grains like brown rice, fresh vegetables, and good proteins such as fish, chicken, or beans. Avoid fried foods and sugary snacks, and also eat less salt and oil. Interestingly, the guidelines even include fun local dishes—like "stewed fish" from Northeast China or "noodles with chili oil" from the Northwest—to make healthy eating delicious and full of local taste.
④For exercise, try to do 150—300 minutes of light activities like walking, cycling, or dancing every week, and do strength exercises twice a week. If you sit for a long time while studying, stand up and move your body for 3—5 minutes every hour.
⑤Besides diet and exercise, small daily habits can also make a big difference. Young people should sleep 7 hours every night because bad sleep can make you put on weight. Try to eat vegetables first, then meat, and finally rice or bread during a meal to control how much you eat.
⑥Schools and communities are also helping. For example, schools in Shanghai now make sure students exercise for at least two hours every day, and hospitals have healthy weight help centers with diet plans, exercise advice, and even some traditional Chinese ways. By 2030, China hopes to stop the problem of being too heavy from getting worse through education and support.
⑦Remember, losing weight isn't about being perfect—just start with small changes, like drinking water instead of sweet drinks or taking the stairs instead of the lift. With these easy steps, everyone can have a healthier future.
9．According to the guidelines, who is considered to be healthy
A．Marry, whose
B．Tony, who has a BMI of 23.
C．Linda, her waist measures 89cm.
D．Tom, his waist measures 95cm.
10．Which eating habit is NOT suggested in the text
A．Eating fried chicken often.
B．Eating fresh vegetables often.
C．Choosing brown rice and fish.
D．Trying Northwest China's noodles with chili oil.
11．Which way is mentioned to support weight management
A．Providing free sugary snacks in schools.
B．Encouraging students to eat more fried food.
C．Reducing daily sleeping hours for young people.
D．Setting up healthy weight help centers in hospitals.
12．What's the right structure of the passage

Have you ever felt nervous about trying something for the first time It's the same for everyone, and overcoming fears and taking healthy risks can open up new experiences.
Step out of your comfort zone(舒适区)
Summer is a great time to try something new, like learning a skill or making new friends. It can feel exciting but scary, because doing something new means taking a risk that it won't work out. Scientists say feeling nervous is our body dealing with danger, it frees chemicals that make the heart race. However, Catherine Hayes Fisher from the mental health charity Place2Be tells The Week Junior not to let it stop you. "Not loving something at first doesn't mean you've made a terrible mistake to try it," she says. "It's part of growth."
Have a go anyway
Feeling the fear but having a go anyway is a great way to increase your confidence and this gives you the strength to overcome challenges, get over from difficult experiences and stay strong inside. It also means making the most of exciting opportunities. Think of a time you took a risk and it paid off, like joining a team and scoring a goal or talking to someone next to you and making a new friend. Then think what you would miss out on if you'd let fear get in the way. However, not all risks are good ideas. So if you're unsure about anything, ask a trusted adult first.
Manage your worries
How you deal with a challenge is important, says Hayes Fisher. So be kind and tell yourself, "I don't know how to do this yet, I'm going to make mistakes, but it'll be fun working it out." She also warns about the "spotlight effect", explaining, "It's easy to feel that everybody is watching when we're in a new situation." But remember that most people are probably busy worrying about what they're doing. Everyone overcomes fear differently, so find what works for you. You could try belly breathing or talking to someone about your feelings.

Born in Guangdong Province in 1926，Huang saw his country suffer from foreign attacks during his childhood. Because of these bad memories and experiences，he made up his mind to study hard and use his knowledge to make his country stronger. In the 1950s，China began the challenging task of building nuclear submarines （核潜艇）. Huang Xuhua bravely joined this project. At that time，there wasn't much advanced technology or resources，this task was like climbing a very high mountain.
Huang and his team faced many challenges while keeping the project a secret. They mustn't share their work with anyone outside their group，not even their families. So Huang was away from home for years. As they worked on designing the submarines，they faced significant problems.

Another major challenge was ensuring the submarine could remain stable underwater. After many tests，they gradually found solutions to these problems.
Finally，in the 1970s，China successfully built and tested its first nuclear submarine. This made China one of the few countries that could do this. Huang didn't stop there.
