I spent a lot of time making a large shelf for my cave. I found a big tree and chopped it down. This took three days. Then, I chopped off the branches. This took another two days. After that, I c hopped the wood away from one side, and then from the other side. This took more than one mont h. Altogether it took forty-two days. In England, two men with a good saw could have made six of these shelves from that tree in half a day.

I also spent a lot of time looking after my corn and rice crops. I had to protect them from wild animals and birds, so I made a fence around them. I shot some of the birds and hung them up near thecorn. After that, all the other birds stayed away. I used one of the old swords I had taken from t he ship to cut down the corn when it was ready. I was very proud of my corn and rice and worked hard to increase my crops. A few years later, I would have enough corn to make bread. I had to fin d a way to grind the corn into flour, but the rocks on the island were not hard enough. I finally disc

overed that a very hard piece of wood would do. I used some cloth to separate the meal from the h usks. Not having anoven, I made some square pots with lids and covered them with hot ashes. Thi s baked the dough, and I had bread! I made my cave bigger again to hold the corn and flour so that I could make bread whenever I needed to.

I sometimes wondered how I could get to the land which was visible from the other side of th e island. I went to the ship?s boat that was blown onto the beach in the shipwreck. However, I coul d not get it to the water. It was too heavy. I tried many different ways of doing it, but none of them were successful.

Fresh off his MasterChef Junior run, Evan Robinson, who is only 12 years old, is using his ki tchen skills to raise money for Puerto Rico. The TV show contestant wanted to offer help after hur ricanes(飓风) hit the country last September.

“I?ve been seeing, all over the news, people struggling,” Evan said. “They can?t get fresh wat er, electricity; they can?t get really anything. I know I?m just a kid, but I think if a lot of people do something, a lot of things will get better.”

He raises money by baking and taking online orders for homemade empanadas(馅饼). He sta rted cooking on a recent Friday night. By the next Sunday evening, he had filled orders for 420 em panadas —— roasted chicken, cheeseburger and vegetarian —— getting $18 for six empanadas and $30 for a dozen.

His mom, Veronica Robinson, helped him send the empanadas around the city.

“We?ve never done anything like this before,” she said. “But it?s a great idea, so I want to help him make it work.”

For Evan?s out-of-town friends and supporters, he has set up a crowdfunding(众筹) page. Through it, he?s hoping to raise $1, 500 in “virtual (虚拟的) empanadas”. This is because he hear d on the news that it could take Puerto Rico years, maybe even 10 years, to recover(复原) from t he hurricanes. And he said, “Fruit pies are up next. And my baking will continue as well.”

It?s a difficult job, especially for a kid with homework and Boy Scouts and friendships to tend to. But he doesn?t seem worried.

“I t?s what we?re supposed to do.” he said. “I?m a human. They?re humans. Why shouldn?t I help them?”

Indeed.

38．How did Evan help those struggling in Puerto Rico?

A．He asked his parents to send the empanadas around the city.

B．He continued offering a lot of fresh water and fruit pies to them.

C．He donated his big winning prize in his MasterChef Junior run.

D．He raised money by selling homemade empanadas through online orders.

39．Evan set up a crowdfunding page because .

A．he raised more money than he expected for the people in need

B．he knew that it could take Puerto Rico a long time to recover

C．he wanted more and more friends to know his kitchen skills

D．the number of online orders was beyond his expectation

40．According to the passage, which are the best words to describe Evan?

A．kind-hearted and helpful B．careful and confident

C．honest and hard-working D．humorous and organized

41．How can we understand the last sentence in the passage?

A．Friendship is important in our lives. B．I t?s difficult for humans to raise money.

C．We should help those who?re in need. D．Everyone must do something unusual.

Bats are the only mammals that can fly a great distance, but they have another ability. Many b ats live a very long time for an animal their size.

European researchers are studying bats to understand why they live so long. They hope to ma ke discoveries to fight the aging process (过程) in human beings.

Last week, the group of scientists said they had found important biological qualities in some bat species. The group studied bat chromosomes (染色体), a line of genes found in the nucleus(核) ofcells. The scientists were most interested in parts connected to the ends of the chromosomes. They are called telomeres(端粒). Telomeres protect the ends of chromosomes, which shorten eac h time a cell divides. Scientists believe this shortening process causes cells to break down.

.

A report on bats was published this month in the journal Science Advances.

Among the leaders of the study was Emma Teeling, a biologist with University College Dubli n in Ireland. Teeling said studying long-living mammals that have developed ways to fight aging “is another way to prove the molecular(分子) basis of extended …health length.?” She added that stu dying bats made scientists able to learn more about the processes “that drive healthy aging.”

The European researchers studied 493 bats from four bat species. The group used information that had been gathered over more than 60 years. Of these animals, the greater mouse-eared bat ge nerally lived the longest, an average of 37 years.

The scientists said this and a related species, which are grouped together under the name Myo tis, had telomeres that did not shorten with age. Another Myotis bat holds the record for oldest age , reaching 41 years.

The scientists? findings suggest that these bats? cells have the ability to keep and repair their t elomeres. This, they said, helps guard against the aging process. Based on its body size, a bat like t he greater mouse-eared bat would be expected to live four years. But, these mammals have been f ound to live nearly 10 times longer than that.

The scientists found that Eighteen of these are bats. The only exception is an unusual African rodent, the naked mole rat.

42．Which sentence can be put at the end of Paragraph 3?

A．This makes scientists able to study bats.

B．That?s why bats can fly a great distance.

C．They say this is what causes aging.

D．They discover the cells connected to humans.

43．Why do some species of bats live a very long time?

A．Because they have a line of long-living genes out of the cells.

B．Because their cells have the ability to keep and repair their telomeres.

C．Because they have another ability to live longer without any food or water.

D．Because telomeres protect the ends of chromosomes to stop cells dividing.

44．The underlined word “that” refers to .

A．four years B．body size C．the aging process D．the ability to repair 45．What?s the best title of the passage?

A．Differences Between Long-Living Animals

B．A Science Report on Chromosomes

C．Do Bats Hold the Secret to Long Life?

D．Are Humans and Bats Similar in Protecting Themselves?

When we are talking to someone, we tend to change someone else?s mind to our way of think ing.And we may often find it difficult to do that, So here are five tips on how to change someone?s mind.

The first one is never to turn the conversation into an argument. It should be a conversation whereyou show your opinions and the facts that you?ve collected. By showing them the facts, we want to tell other people that we are right. But emotionally, they may not totally agree with what y ou say. So when you are trying to change someone?s mind, try to keep it as a conversation and not an argument.

The second tip is never to say that you are wrong. If someone makes a statement that you thi nk iswrong, it?s better to point it out by saying, “I thought otherwise but I might be wrong, let?s lo ok at the facts.” The key is to say that you might be wrong, not that you are wrong. This opens up t he other person to look at the data again and shows them that you?re not bullheaded (顽固的) and that you?re not going to change your opinion. You?re showing them that you are open to new idea s and this is super important in changing someone else?s mind to your way of thinking.

Tip number three is to get the other person saying yes as fast as possible. You may begin yo ur conversation on hobbies that you guys have, something that they?re crazy about, something that

gets them saying yes. Because the more that you get them to say yes now, the more likely they are to say yes in the future. A conversation like this will get them to start to like you and maybe even more open up to ideas that you have. It builds up trust between the two of you.

Tip number four is to let the other person do a great amount of talking. If you let them talk more, you?re going to show that you actually care about their opinions and ideas, which will earn t heir respect in the end. By listening to them, you?re going to create a friendly relationship and buil d trust. So when you express your opinions, they will also show a willingness to listen. Never inter rupt them when they are talking. Just listen patienly with an open mind, encourage them to talk ev en more and more so that when it?s your tum to talk, they?ll listen and say nothing.

The last tip is to let the other person feel like the idea was theirs. It?s wiser to make suggestio ns and let someone else come to the conclusion, then they have a sense of pride that it?s their idea. Giving someone the data and letting them come to the conclusion let them feel like it is their idea and they are proud of it.

Title: How to change someone else’s mind

Introduction

Though it is not (71) to change someone else?s mind, here are tips you

can follow.

Five (72) of changing someone else?s mind ●Keep it as a conversation and not an argument, or they may not totally be in (

Exercising is important!

Recenly, we have done a survey about students? exereising, Aocording to the survey, 32% of t he students spend over one hour every day doing exercise, while 68% of them spend less than one hour. The reasons are as follows: Firstly, 46% of them have too much homework, so they have no t ime to do exercise. Secondly, 29% of them are not good a exercise.
