He thought he was too old to work and ready to retire(退休). His boss was1 to see the good worker go. He asked the carpenter 2 he could build just one more house. The carpenter said yes, 3 his mind was not on his work at all.

    He used poor materials and worked on the house 4.When the carpenter finished his work, the boss 5 the front-door key to him, "This is your house," he said, "A 6 for you."

    What a 7! What a shame! If he had known he was building his 8house, he would have done it differently. Now he had to live in the house he had poorly built.

    9it is with us. We do many things in an absent minded way, reacting rather than acting, willing to finish them less than the best. Sometimes at important points we do not try our best to build our 10 .Then with a shame we look at the situation we have 11 . We find that we are now living in the house we have poorly built. If we had realized it, we should have done it with our whole heart. But we don't have a 12to make it all over again.

    Think of 13 as the carpenter. Think about your life. Build it 14 It is the only life you will ever build because life is a do-it-yourself project.

Paul: Hi, Amy1You look worried.

Amy: I have to work with five other classmates on a project.

Paul: Is the project hard for everyone to work on?

Amy: 2 But my group doesn't work together well.

Paul: So your group is having a problem with teamwork.

Amy: Exactly. And nobody wants to be the team leader. The deadline of our project is coming.3

Paul: If your group does not have a leader then you should be one. You should call everyone together for a meeting.

Amy: 4I don't know what to do next.

Paul: You can ask them what they have done so far, as well as finding out what still needs to be done.

Amy: All right. Maybe I can have a try.

Paul: That way you will be sure that the project is done correctly. I believe you'll be a good leader.

Amy: Thank you for your advice.

Paul: My pleasure. 5

    Once a week, Neil went grocery shopping. He always made a list, but he always forgot to put one or more things on the list. This used to anger him, but now he just accepted it. You're not as sharp as you used to be, he told himself.

    It was Friday-shopping day. He went to the $99 Store. Sometimes they had a lot of fresh produce, sometimes they didn't. He got lucky. There were fresh packaged broccoli, carrots, onions, and squash. Also, packages of peaches, plums, and apples. He easily had enough produce to last all week, if it didn't go bad first. The fruit and vegetables alone filled up four plastic bags. Four other bags contained other items that were on Neil's list.

    He drove to Albertson's, which sold milk by the gallon(加仑) and at cheaper prices than the $99 Store. Interestingly, the price of milk had got higher in the last month. He used to buy 2 gallons of nonfat milk for $3.59.Now he was paying $4.69. Yet, the news media reports a 2-cent increase in gasoline(汽油) prices. That's all over the news.

    He parked his car in the carport and opened the trunk. He managed, as usual, to put all 10 plastic bags into his hands and take them upstairs.

    "What a heavy shopping it is," he thought. And then he told himself: if you think it's too heavy now, wait till you can't drive. Wait till you can't even walk up the stairs. How are you going to get your food then The older you get, he told himself, the more you'd better thank the fact that you can still do all these boring chores and housework.

    Each year on Feb 21 ,UNESCO(联合国教科文组织）holds an INTERNATIONAL International Mother Language Day(IMLD). The event is to help people to pay attention to the disappearance of the world's languages: many of them are disappearing each year. UNESCO sees this as a terrible fact.

    What happens when a language dies out? Something great is lost—not just sounds and marks but the way that people understand the world and communicate with each other. We keep different cultures and traditions through languages Kill a language and all these are killed too.

    Through IMLD, more and more people come to realize the terrible situation and try to stop it. Google's 2018 Endangered Languages Project is a good example. Many speakers and protectors of endangered language upload(上传) texts audios and videos to the project website. They want to introduce the way that people communicate and express themselves around the world.

    The Myamia Project is the same kind of effort to revive the language spoken by the Miami tribes(部落) of the United States. Project members work to encourage people to study and communicate with this language, which died out in the 1960s.

These activities give life to those endangered languages. People who work to keep languages alive and not limited to the past. Many young people design apps and use social media to support their activities. They "spread the word' to save the word.

    So, while the problem of disappearing languages remains a very serious one, there is hope. We all have a special feeling of our mother language. This is why we should remember the wise words of late president of South Africa, Nelson Mandela: "If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to a man in his own language, that goes to his heart."

    "Why do I live? Why do I wish for anything, or do anything? Is there anything my life that will not be destroyed by my death? " Like Leo Tolstoy, the famous Russian writer, many people ask these difficult questions. Tolstoy spent his whole life trying to answer these difficult questions.

    As a young man, he thought people could achieve perfection if they tried hard enough. So he worked very hard to be the best in everything. He thought that he would find meaning and truth in success.

    In the 1850s, Tolstoy wrote his first stories. He wrote about his life in the army. He also told stories about his childhood. These works were published and Tolstoy became a well-known writer.

    He earned the respect he always wanted. Many rich and smart men met and talked with Tolstoy. Some of them were writers like him. They talked a lot about faith(信 仰) and the meaning of life. But soon Tolstoy recognized that these men were not perfect. Now he knew they could not answer his questions about faith.

    So in the 1860s, Tolstoy tried a different way to find the meaning of life. He opened a school for the children of his serfs— the people who worked on his land. These workers were very poor. He wanted to help them because he thought they were more honest than the rich people he knew. Tolstoy learned a lot from his workers. He understood how they worked hard to support their families. He began to believe that marriage and family would give his life meaning. So in 1862, Leo Tolstoy married a young woman named Sonya Behrs.

    The next 15 years were the best years of Tolstoy's life. It was during this time that he wrote his most famous books— War and Peach and Anna Karenina. Many experts say that War and Peace is one of the greatest books ever written. In these books, Tolstoy believed humans should live a simple life and take care of their families. Tolstoy thought this would satisfy him and bring him happiness.

    Leo Tolstoy is still a very respected writer today. His faith and writings have influenced many people all over the world.

    China and Western countries may have different cultures about certain animals. But when it comes to pigs, we all nod in agreement that pigs are ugly, and stupid.

    However, the truth is that pigs do have some finer qualities. And there's probably no better time to clear their names than now, with the Year of the Pig in China. Science has proved that pigs aren't stupid at all. They have good long-term memories. And they the difference between those who treat them well and those who don't. Also, there are cute pig characters cartoons too. Peppa Pig, for example, is now of the most popular cartoons in the world. The four members of the cartoon's pig family teach children about love, friendship, and the of family.

    As an exchange student, I have lived in China over the years. China a lot in the years since I first moved here. One major development has been the wide use of cashless payment(无现金支付).China is hardly the first country to have cashless payment. I . a debit card(借记卡)to pay for things without cash for years in the US. But now I use my phone here instead, it's very easy and convenient. One of the things I like most is that I can send and receive money directly among my friends. Cashless payment makes it so much easier the bill when we eat out together. And I can make donations simply as well. For example, I often give away money to Animal Helpers by using its QR code(二维码).

    But cashless payment has some problems as well. What will happen if your phone ? There are also times when your phone's mobile internet connection might not work. So even though cashless payments are convenient, I a bit of cash with me in order not to meet any possible trouble.

    For most students, the time before exams is very stressful and difficult. If exams really make you anxious or worried, you don't need to hide your feelings. Talk to someone about it.

    How to get through an important test? Here is some advice.

    Ask a teacher about how to review the lessons and improve testing skills.

If your mind is tired, it will not work well.

    Get enough sleep and eat healthy food. Have a positive attitude: Don't be afraid of exams.

    Stop thinking about the future and failure.

    If you feel anxious, you can talk to someone about your feelings. Some stress before exams makes you work hard for them.

    If it upsets you to talk to your friends about the exam when it finished, don't do it! In fact, do not even think about the exam you have finished.

    If you study in the evening, you'd better not go straight to bed. Your mind will still be "going round and round"—thinking too much. Do something that makes you relaxed and think about other things.
