Last winter I decided to work as a volunteer. I applied for (申请) jobs at a few shops, but all of 1 didn't have any jobs for teenagers. Then, one day my mum told me the zoo was looking 2 teenagers to work on the weekend. So I applied for the job online.
Several 3 later, I got a phone call from the manager. He asked me 4 to work the following Saturday. On Saturday morning I went to the zoo early. The manager gave me 5 orange T-shirt for work. He also gave me a pair of black rain shoes 6 it was wet and dirty everywhere.
My first job was to clean the elephant's house. I was very 7 to work with a girl named Jane. She 8 working there last summer. She taught me how to do the job and helped me a lot. My next job was to clean the lion's cage (笼子). I was scared, but 9 the lion wasn't in the cage at that time.
What a great job I have! Now I enjoyed 10 in the zoo.
A long time ago, there was an apple tree. A little kid enjoyed playing around it and taking a rest under it. Also, he wanted to pick some apples from the tree. As a 5-year-old boy, he was short so he 1 to climb to the top of the tree to get the apples and ate them. He really had fun playing with the tree. He loved the tree and the tree loved him at that time.
Time went by. The boy 2 and he didn't play with the tree. One day, the boy came back to the tree. "Come and play with me." the tree said.
"I dislike playing around the tree now. I want toys. Toys are more interesting for me. I need money to buy them."
"I don't have money, but you can pick my apples and sell them." The boy was happy and climbed the tree and picked all the apples 3 the tree and left.
After a long time, the boy was already a man. He was much taller than before. He could touch the branches (树枝) of the tree 4 without climbing up. He came back to the tree. "I need a house for my family."
"You can cut my branches to build one." 5 the boy cut all the branches of the tree and left. He didn't come back. The tree missed him so much and felt sad.
On a hot day, the boy came back after many years. "Sorry, my boy. I have 6 for you. I'm old." "I just need a place to rest. I am 7 after all these years." The boy sat down and the tree smiled with tears (泪水).
The tree is like our 8 . When we are young, we love to play with them. When we grow up, we leave them, and we only come to them when we need something or when we have 9 . You may think the boy is cruel (残忍的) to the tree but that's 10 we treat (对待) our parents.

What should we do if one of our classmates suddenly falls ill or gets hurt? Here are some steps you should follow. But always remember to look for medical care after first aid(急救) if the wound is serious.
Broken bones(骨头): Take away clothing from the wound. Use an ice pack. Don't move the hurt body part while waiting for the doctor to arrive.
Animal bites(咬伤): Wash the bite area with soap and water. Pack the wound with a clean cloth if it is bleeding. If the bleeding has stopped, cover the area with a bandage and take the person to the hospital. Make sure you remember what kind of animal it is so the doctor can find the right way to treat him or her at once.
Fainting(昏厥): Have him or her lie with feet lifted a little. Don't move the body if you think there might be wounds from the fall. Make sure he or she can breathe and let in fresh air. Clean the person's face with a cool cloth.
Nosebleeds: Have the person sit up with his or her head tilted(倾斜) forward a little. Do not have the person tilt his or her head back because this may cause heavy breathing or coughing. Pinch(捏) the lower part of the nose for at least 10 minutes.
Jerry is a world-famous mountain climber. He climbed many high mountains in the world. Starting in 2015, he and his friends spent two years on an adventure (探险) in South America. In 2018, a famous geography magazine even named him Adventure of the Year.
Although Jerry achieved great success, he didn't feel fulfilled. He asked himself, "Is it enough to climb the highest mountains? Am I doing something helpful? How can I change my adventures into something that can help the world?"
Jerry learned that scientists need plants, rocks and water samples (样本) from the places far away to do research (研究). But scientists can't get there themselves because such places are hard to reach—only the bravest adventurers can make it. Jerry thought he could do something to help. He then came up with an idea. He set up a team of top adventures to collect samples for scientists. By studying the samples, scientists could know more about the earth and find ways to protect it.
Recently Jerry and his adventurer friends have discovered a special plant life of Mountain Qomolangma. The samples they brought back have helped scientists how plants live in extreme (极端的) condition.
For Jerry, this kind of adventure is most satisfying. "Such adventures had made us see life in a different way. Now, being the best climber isn't important for me. What matters is doing something helpful while climbing the mountains. There is still much more we can do." Jerry said to a newspaper.
"Flying Over Chongqing" is a game in Chongqing Rongchuang Cultural Tourism City (重庆融创文旅城). With a pair of glasses, you can visit many places of interest in Chongqing in a few minutes. This is VR—the most exciting technology (科技) nowadays. It can put you in a new but unreal world.
With VR, you can study in a classroom with students from all over the world. You can try on the clothes from different stores or taste delicious food from other places. Doctors can also use VR to help children who can't put their attention into a thing. This technology makes our life more colorful.
VR technology is also widely used in the game. This year many famous companies (公司), like Apple Inc., Microsoft, Samsung, are trying to make full use of VR technology in the game. For example, ____ . The VR technology in this game can make players more excited when playing.
VR technology is going to change our life. Some users will lose themselves and feel mad when playing games with it. Some enjoy themselves too much in the unreal world and don't want to come back to be themselves in real life. Whether you're interested in the unreal world or not, please come back to the real world and be yourself.
①School stress is something most students have to learn to deal with (处理) at school. And it's important to find a good way to deal with your stress.
②Deal with stress at the moment.
Get to know the way your body experiences stress. Do you start to breathe fast or notice a sour taste in your mouth? If your hands start to shake or sweat (出汗), you're likely to feel stressed.
③Find out where your stress comes from.
Is there a certain person, situation or environment that's causing you to feel stressed out? The important way is to find out more about what's causing it. Sometimes it may be easy to find out, but at other times may be difficult.
④Take 3 deep breaths.
Taking deep breaths before you are in a stressful situation can help you stay relaxed.
⑤Ask for help.
If you don't know how to deal with your stress, find someone to help you. If you're at school, you may ask a teacher or a friend for help. If it's a problem that you need help with right away, talk to someone in your classroom. If you're not in a hurry, think about asking your parent or your teacher for help.
⑥Move away from the situation if you can.
You can take a break by taking a walk outside. You can also make up a story about forgetting something in your car which will give you a reason to walk outside.

B: So it was, Mario.

A: I'm sorry to hear that. Then how did you get home from school? By bike?
B: What about you? What were you doing?
A: I was on my way to Rick's birthday party.
B: Really? That was too bad! Were you wearing your raincoat?

Now more and more Chinese teenagers find life more difficult without their parents. They don't know how to do housework, because their parents do almost everything for them at home. This is a big problem.
Joy is 14 years old. One day her parents went on a trip to Shanghai, so she had to stay at home alone. At first she thought she would be happy because her parents were not in. She could do everything that she liked. But it was seven o'clock in the evening, and she felt hungry. "Oh, it's time to have supper. Where can I get my food?" she said to herself. Later she found some food in the fridge, but she didn't know how to cook. At that moment, she missed her parents very much. At last she could only go to a restaurant to eat.
Many of teenagers are the same as Joy. So I think teenagers should learn some basic life skills such as tidying up their rooms, dressing themselves, cooking some simple dishes and so on. They shouldn't depend too much on their parents, either. Learning to be independent is quite important for them.
Jack the floor by himself last weekend.
you do after you hurt your leg?
My classmate an English book me.
A lot of parents are always their kids others'.
I advise you to these words.
Jack's uncle lives alone in a village. This summer Jack went to him. He s his whole holiday there.
Every day they went out for a walk and he always saw his uncle at everyone. Jack didn't understand and asked, "Uncle George, do you know around here?"
"No," said his uncle. "Then why do you smile at them?" asked Jack. "Well, when I smile at someone, he knows me, he'll be happy. But when I smile at someone, even though he doesn't know me, he'll feel surprised and think, ‘Who is that man? Why does he smile at me?' He'll think these questions all the way, and he will be happy, too. So I give everyone happy feelings. I think it's for them to refuse the smiles."
"I see, Uncle George. Being kind to others is also being kind to o." Jack said happily.
