He recalled that the competition deadline was merely a week away.But he still had not even started on his piece.He looked at the brochure again.“WRITING COMPETITION！” the title read.His mom had encouraged him to enter the writing competition，and now he was taking it on as his personal task for the holidays.

Then he heard his mother's call of saying time for bed.He continued writing the piece，ignoring her.He had to make up for the time he had lost in thinking about a topic to write.

Finally，he finished.The word count now read“498”．

“Perfect，”he thought，“just under the word limit.”He knew this was the story that would win.

A brand new scooter（滑板车）was recently left outside a shop in Cornwall with a heartwarming note saying："Free to a little boy or girl who is not lucky enough to have one. " The scooter belonged to Max，a generous six﹣year﹣old. The child was given a new scooter for his birthday but he already had one，so he decided that he didn’t need it.

He told his parents he wanted a family who could not afford a scooter to take his extra one and they helped him put a plan together. They spoke with the owner of a local shop in Trispen，Cornwall，who let the family leave the scooter outside. They attached a note to it saying it was free to take.

The alarm sounds.Students swing their backpacks over their shoulder，board the school bus，make their way to their homeroom and the bell rings—school is back.But for more homes in America，school looks more like students waking up，making their way to the dining room or home office，setting up laptops and learning in the comfort of home.

Virtual(虚拟的) schooling，described as “a public school that offers only instruction in which students and teachers are separated by time and/or place，and interaction occurs via computers and/or telecommunications(电信) technologies”，has increased over the past decade.According to the National Education Policy Center，enrollments(注册人数) in virtual schools increased by 17，000 between the 2015－2016 school year and the 2016－2017 school year to 295，518.

Carrie Faulkner chose to enroll two of her children in Arizona Virtual Academy.She says they've done schooling online in Chicago，in California，at restaurants and on her cousin's floor in Kansas.“It doesn't matter whether he (her son) is on the couch，in his bed or at the kitchen table，he can do schooling wherever he wants to，”Faulkner said.“I wish they had it for me back when I was in school.That would have been awesome.”

Who're happier，men or women？Research shows it's a complex question and that asking whether males or females are happier isn't really that helpful，because basically，happiness is different for women and men.

Women's happiness has been declining for the past 30 years，according to recent statistics.And research shows that women are twice as likely to experience depression compared with men.Gender(性别) differences in depression are well confirmed and studies have found that biological，psychological and social factors contribute to the difference.

Early studies on gender and happiness found men and women were socialized to express different feelings.Women are more likely to express happiness，warmth and fear，which help with social bonding and appear more consistent with the traditional role as a primary caregiver，while men display more anger，pride and disrespect，which are more consistent with a protector and provider role.

Recent research suggests that these differences are not just socially，but also genetically related.Studies have looked into these findings further and discovered that females use more areas of the brain containing mirror neurons(镜像神经元) than males when they process feelings.Mirror neurons allow us to experience the world from other people's view，to understand their actions and intentions.This may explain why women can experience deeper sadness.Women tend to experience more negative feelings，such as more guilt，shame and to a lesser degree，embarrassment.

Psychologically it seems men and women differ in the way they process and express feelings.With the exception of anger，women experience feelings more strongly and share their feelings more openly with

others.Studies have found in particular that women express more appreciation—which has been linked to greater happiness.This supports the theory that women's happiness is more dependent on relationships than men's.

32．Which feeling are men more likely to show compared with women?

A．Warmth.B．Depression.

C．Happiness. D．Disrespect.

33．What factors cause women to share feelings more openly?

A．Psychological factors.

B．Biological factors.

C．Educational factors.

D．Social factors.

34．One can probably read the text from ．

A．a science fiction

B．a culture brochure

C．a nursery guide

D．a health magazine

35．What is the text mainly about?

A．Men and women differ in biology and psychology.

B．Men and women experience happiness differently.

C．Social roles have a great effect on men and women.

D．Women's happiness has declined in the past years.

Criticism (批评) is harmful to healthy relationships. It’s okay to express disappointment if someone is

behaving in a way that hurts you. 36. The following are some ways to catch criticism before it begins.

37. Before you criticize, pause and consider whether you really need to say anything at all. If someone did something to get on your nerves, would you really need to point it out? Sometimes, it’s best to let small rudeness go Take a few deep breaths and leave the room instead of criticizing.

Be realistic. Critical people often have very high expectations of those around them. Your tendency to criticize may come from expecting too much from others. Sometimes you may find yourself consistently annoyed or disappointed with others. 38.

Separate the individual from their actions. Critical people often focus on the negative aspects of a situation or a person, failing to see good qualities alongside negative ones. If you find yourself making assumptions about a person’s character, stop yourself. 39. We all behave poorly sometimes, but a single action is not a reflection of character.

Focus on positives. Oftentimes, being critical results from how you’re choosing to see a situation. 40. However, the vast majority of people have good qualities that outweigh the bad ones. Try to focus on a person’s positive qualities over their negative ones.

A. Never criticize others.

B. Think before you speak.

C. Everyone has drawbacks and imperfections.

D. It may be a good idea to adjust your expectations.

E.We should focus on other people’s disappointing actions.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

It was somewhere between spring and summer, and my mom and I were driving through the countryside. Back then, I was 13 years old, and always felt unhappy with Mom. But little did I know that this trip was going to be a special one.

A pot of flowers sat in the back seat, whose heavenly scent filled the car.

Suddenly, in the middle of nowhere, my mom pulled over. “What are you doing?” I cried, fearing that the car had broken down and we'd be stuck there, so far from home. But that wasn't the case. My mom hopped out of the car, grabbing th e flowers from the back seat. “It'll just be a minute,” she called back through the open windows.

My eyes impatiently skimmed the edge of the road before settling on a little sign showing that it was a nursing home. I looked back to the building, somewhat annoyed, as my mom reappeared, empty-handed.

Before she started the car, curiosity drove me to ask, “Do you know someone there?” She shook her head.“Then what did you do with the flowers?” She smiled slightly, “I gave them to the receptionist.” “What?” She laughed at my confusion. “I told the receptionist to give the flowers to whoever needed them, especially who hasn't gotten any in a while.”

I kept silent for a moment. Not long after we continued our driving, I spoke again, “Did you leave your name?” To t his she answered instantly,“No. Leaving flowers there for someone who will appreciate them makes me feel good,which is enough of a thank you for me.”

Suddenly, still thinking about Mom's deeds, I heard something burst loudly. It was our car that broke down!

Nothing could be worse, because neither my mom nor I understood how to repair it, and we didn't know where the garage was. It also seemed impossible to wait for any passer-by, since we had seen so few along the way. Paragraph 1:

We were worrying about what could be done.

Paragraph 2:

As we drove along,a flower shop came into sight on the road.
