Everybody, at some point in their lives, has experienced failure. It could be something as simple as not getting the job you wanted, or getting fewer marks even after hard work. But what makes you is not your failure, but how you get back up after being hit.
Once, a young school boy was caught in a fire accident in his school and was assumed that he would not live. His mother was told that he was sure to die, for the terrible fire had destroyed the lower half of his body. Even if he were to survive, he would be lame throughout his life.
The brave boy did not want to die nor did he want to be lame. Much to the amazement of the doctor, he did survive. Unfortunately from his waist down, he had no motor ability. His thin legs
just hung there, lifeless. Eventually he left the hospital. But his determination to walk was unshakable. At home, when he was not in bed, he had to stay in a wheelchair. One day, he threw himself from the chair and pulled himself across the grass, dragging his legs behind him. He reached the fence, raised himself up and then began dragging himself along the fence, firmly determined. He did this every day, with faith in himself that he would be able to walk unaided. With his iron determination, he did develop the ability to stand up, then to walk on and off, then to walk by himself and then to run.
He began to walk to school, and then run to school, to run for the joy of running. Later in college he was on the track team.
In February 1934, in New York City's Madison Square Garden, this young man who was not expected to survive, who would surely never walk, who could never hope to run - this determined young man, Dr. Glenn Cunningham, ran the world’s fastest mile.
A good example of the power of positive thinking and faith in one’s self, Glenn Cunningham continues to be an inspiration for many, and his story, a brilliant evidence to how one can bounce back even when all difficulties are piled against one, to the degree that death seemed the preferable option.

What can be a suitable title for the text?
Strengthen determination B. Stand up after failure

The mass death of flying foxes in extreme heat in North Queensland last month underlines the importance of University of Queensland wildlife research released today. The UQ research sheds light on how various species have responded to major climate events.
A study led by UQ School of Earth and Environmental Science researcher Dr Sean Maxwell has spent more than 70 years quantifying the responses of various species.
“The growing frequency and intensity of extreme weather events such as cyclones, droughts and floods is causing unpredictable and immediate changes to ecosystems and blocking existing management efforts,” Dr Maxwell said.“Some of the negative responses we found were quite concerning, including more than 100 cases of dramatic population declines and 31 cases of local population extinction following an extreme event.”
“Populations of critically endangered bird species in Hawaii, such as the palia, have been
annihilated due to drought, leaving none of its kind, and populations of lizard species have been wiped out due to cyclones in the Bahamas.”
Cyclones were the most common extreme event for birds, fish, plants and reptiles, while mammals and amphibians were most responsive to drought events, with drought leading to 12 cases of major population decline in mammals. Drought also led to 13 cases of breeding declines in bird populations and 12 cases of changes in the composition of invertebrate communities.
UQ Centre for Biodiversity and Conservation Science director Professor James Watson said the detailed information would help inform ecosystem management.
“The research clearly shows species will respond, often negatively, to extreme events,” Professor Watson said. “As climate change continues to ensure extreme climate and weather events are more and more common, we now need to act to ensure species have the best chance to survive. Wherever possible, high quality and intact habitat areas should be retained, as these are
the places where species are most resilient (易恢复的) to increasing exposure to extreme events.”
How was the UQ research conducted?
By observing extreme weather events.
By protecting the endangered species.
By recording reactions of animals to extreme climate.
By analyzing the reason why mass animal death happened.
What does the underlined word “annihilated” in paragraph 4 probably mean?
destroyed B. defeated C. decreased D. disappeared
Which of the following sentences is true about extreme weather events?
Drought caused 13 cases of distinction in bird populations.
Drought caused 12 cases of population drop in mammals.
Birds and mammals are most responsive to cyclones.
Cyclones wiped out populations of lizard.
What can we infer from Professor Watson’s words?
Species will make negative responses to extreme events.
The existing management ways for wildlife protection are limited.
Different methods should be adopted to ensure the survival of different species.
Complete and undamaged habitats are of great importance to species’ survival.
What does the author mainly focus on in the passage?
Varieties of extreme weather events and their causes.
The great benefit of the University of Queensland wildlife research.
Species’ negative reactions to extreme climate changes.
Major natural disasters and their destructive effects.
D
Two friends have an argument that breaks up their friendship forever, even though neither one can remember how the whole thing got started. Such sad events happen over and over in high schools across the country. In fact, according to an official report on youth violence, “In
our country today, the greatest threat to the lives of children and adolescents is not disease or starvation or abandonment, but the terrible reality of violence”. Given that this is the case, why aren’t students taught to manage conflict the way they are taught to solve math problems, drive cars, or stay physically fit?
First of all, students need to realize that conflict is unavoidable. A report on violence among middle school and high school students indicates that most violent incidents between students begin with a relatively minor insult. For example, a fight could start over the fact that one student eats a peanut butter sandwich each lunchtime. Laughter over the sandwich can lead to insults, which in turn can lead to violence. The problem isn’t in the sandwich, but in the way students deal with the conflict.
Once students recognize that conflict is unavoidable, they can practice the golden rule of conflict resolution: stay calm. Once the student feels calmer, he or she should choose words that will calm the other person down as well. Rude words, name-calling, and accusation only add fuel to the emotional fire. On the other hand, soft words spoken at a normal sound level can put out the fire before it explodes out of control.
After both sides have calmed down, they can use another key strategy for conflict resolution: listening. Listening allows the two sides to understand each other. One person should describe his or her side, and the other person should listen without interrupting.
Afterward, the listener can ask non-threatening questions to clarify the speaker’s position. Then the two people should change roles.
Finally, students need to consider what they are hearing. This doesn’t mean trying to figure out what’s wrong with the other person. It means understanding what the real issue is and what both sides are trying to accomplish. For example, a shouting match over a peanut butter sandwich might happen because one person thinks the other person is unwilling to try new things. Students need to ask themselves questions such as these: How did this start?
What do I really want? What am I afraid of? As the issue becomes clearer, the conflict often simply becomes smaller. Even if it doesn’t, careful thought helps both sides figure out a mutual solution.
There will always be conflict in schools, but that doesn’t mean there needs to be violence.
After students in Atlanta started a conflict resolution program, according to Educators for Social Responsibility, “64% of the teachers reported less physical violence in the classroom; 75% of the teachers reported an increase in student cooperation; and 92% of the students felt better about themselves”. Learning to resolve conflicts can help students deal with friends, teachers, parents, bosses, and coworkers. In that way, conflict resolution is a basic life skill that should be taught in schools across the country.
This article is mainly about .
the lives of school children B. the cause of arguments in schools
C. how to analyze youth violence D. how to deal with school conflicts
From Paragraph 2 we can learn that .
violence is more likely to occur at lunchtime
a small conflict can lead to violence
students tend to lose their temper easily
the eating habit of a student is often the cause of a fight
The underlined phrase in the 3rd paragraph means .
inspire one’s enthusiasm B. lift one’s spirit
C. make things worse D. lead something to happen
Why do students need to ask themselves the questions stated in Paragraph 5?
To make clear what the real issue is.
To get ready to try new things.
To find out who is to blame.
To figure out how to stop the shouting match.
After the conflict resolution program was started in Atlanta, it was found that .
more teachers felt better about themselves in schools
there was less student cooperation in the classroom
there was a decrease in classroom violence
the teacher-student relationship greatly improved
The writer’s purpose for writing this article is to .
present the golden rule of conflict resolution
teach students proper strategies for school life
inform teachers of the latest studies on school violence
advocate teaching conflict management in schools

Friends show off their pets on WeChat Moments, people walk dogs in the park and people watch videos of cats online. Everywhere you look, people seem to be enjoying their pets. Indeed, they are an important part of our modern lives, even for people who don’t own a pet.
A new report from Aug 15 sheds light on this trend. Asian Pet Show and online platform
Goumin released the 2019 Chinese Pet Industry White Paper. It shows that China’s urban pet consumer market is expected to break through the 200 billion yuan threshold (门槛) this year, with the overall consumption scale reaching 202.4 billion yuan. That means an increase of
18.5% over that of 2018. Young people in big cities are the main contributors.
“Most young people are suffering from great loneliness and pressure. Keeping pets will help them feel cozy and relaxed,” wrote the report.
Many young people who leave their hometown to make a living in big cities have had pressure of living in a new place. After working all day in a competitive environment, they have few friends and face high cost of living.
Claire Krisko from the US is one of the many young people. She told Teen Ink, a website for the teenagers in the US, that she felt very lonely in her own city. To combat it, she bought a dog.
“After a hard day, seeing a happy face and wagging (摇动的) tail, bounding (跳跃着跑)
around the corner and running toward me will make my day better. I was no longer lonely.”she said.
Apart from relieving loneliness, many scientific studies have shown that keeping a pet reduces stress and may even improve overall health.
“Playing with or petting an animal can increase levels of the stress-reducing hormone (荷尔蒙) and decrease production of the stress hormone. These hormonal changes can help nervous people feel more relaxed happy,” the BBC noted.
We always believe that pets have to live with humans, but it seems that many of us can’t live without our furry companions.
What is the trend that a new report from Aug 15 shows? (no more than 10 words)
Why do you think the young people in big cities are main contributors of the larger pet consumer market? (no more than 15 words)
What does the underlined word mean in Paragraph 5? (no more than 3 words)

Dear Joe,
I’m glad to have received your email requesting advice on courses for the Chinese Class. I’m writing to exchange ideas with you.
First of all, I’d like to share with you why I want to apply for the Chinese class. I’ve ever read a novel about Chinese history, which has inspired my love of China and Chinese literature. Better career opportunities are also why I want to learn Chinese, with Chinese economy developing rapidly.
As to the courses for the Chinese Class, what I’m enthusiastic about is Chinese history and culture, because a better understanding of them can make me more motivated to learn the Chinese language. In addition, conversational Chinese is my preference.
I’ll really appreciate it if you take my advice into consideration. Looking forward to seeing you in China!
Yours Michael
