What a day! I started at my new school this morning and had the best time. I made lots of new friends and really liked my teachers. I was nervous the night before, but I had no reason to be. Everyone was so friendly and polite. They made me feel at ease. It was like I’d been at the school for a hundred years!
The day started very early at 7:00 am. I had my breakfast downstairs with my mom. She could tell that I was very nervous. Mom kept asking me what was wrong. She told me I had nothing to worry about and that everyone was going to love me. If they didn’t love me, Mom said to send them her way for a good talking to. I couldn’t stop laughing.
My mom dropped me off at the school gates about five minutes before the bell. A little blonde (金发的) girl got dropped off at the same time and started waving (招手) at me. She ran over and told me her name was Abigail. She was very nice and we became close straight away. We spent all morning together and began to talk to another girl called Stacey. The three of us sat together in class all day and we even made our way home together! It went so quickly. Our teacher told us that tomorrow we would really start learning and developing new skills.
I cannot wait until tomorrow and feel as though I am really going to enjoy my time at my new school. I only hope that my new friends feel the same way too.

If you have to describe yourself to someone else, what will you say It can be difficult to see yourself from the outside, but knowing who you are, namely( 即 ) self- awareness, can help you understand feelings and make friendships closer.
Self-awareness means having a good understanding of our own personality, that is, having the ability to see ourselves clearly. If you’re self-aware, you may know that you love playing an instrument because you do well in it, and music makes you happy, or that you prefer watching TV on your own because it helps you relax.
Knowing what you like and dislike, what you do well in and what you find difficult allows you to make better decisions about friendships, schoolwork and so on. You learn to trust your own feelings more, which builds confidence. The World Health Organization says self-awareness is one of ten important life skills that help young people live happier, healthier lives. Being self-aware doesn’t mean only thinking of yourself. By understanding your own feelings, you will better understand other people too.
How do you learn to be self-aware It’s a good way to ask questions. But ask yourself questions that start with “What” instead of “Why”. So, if you don’t understand
why you keep arguing with a friend, ask yourself what you disagree on instead of why you’re arguing.
Learning to be more self-aware is a skill, which means you learn it as you grow. So be bold and try out new things, like playing a new sport or listening to different kinds of music. Don’t be afraid to dislike something -- discovering what you find difficult is a key part of learning more about yourself.
8. The second paragraph mainly about .
A．what self-awareness is. B．what true happiness is.
C．how to find true happiness. D．how to develop self-awareness.
9. Knowing yourself is important because .
A. it’ll make you think more of yourself.
B. it’ll make you perform better at school.
C. it’ll help you learn how to ask proper questions.
D. it’ll help you have a better understanding of others.
10. What does the underlined word “bold” in the last paragraph probably mean in Chinese
A．hard-working. B．proud. C．brave. D．patient.
11. What’s one of the keys to becoming more self-aware
A．Being in high spirits. B．Discovering your weak points. C．Having a taste for pleasant music.
D．Learning to get along well with others.
D
“I feel unlikable, lonely and hopeless，” said Lisa, a bright teenager from a loving home. “It seems that nobody wants to become my friend. What's wrong with me？”
Like Lisa, many of us experience loneliness. The truth is that all people, no matter what their age or character — even the most outgoing, wealthy and popular — experience loneliness at least sometimes. It's healthy and natural to want to be around people who care. After all, we've all heard “No man is an island.” That's true. We all need others in our lives.
Solomon, the wisest man who ever lived, explains that if we want friends, we must be friendly and reach out to others. But it has risk. Because we are often afraid of rejection (拒绝), many of us are unwilling to reach out to others. We take a safer way and wait for others to make friends with us. But if we want friends, we've got to get beyond this.
If making friends is your goal as well, you need to consider taking some measures (措施).
Be willing to take the initiative (主动权). If you see someone whom you would like
to know, don't wait for her to make the first move. Get close to her and begin a conversation. Let her know in a non-aggressive ( 无攻击性的) way that you are
interested in being friends with her.
Reach out to those who are lonely. When you see someone at school sitting alone, go over and talk to her. And don't let popularity decide whom you reach out to. You'll often be surprised at the beautiful qualities behind a shy appearance.
Ask questions. Start your first conversation by asking this possible friend what she likes to do or asking about her family. Be sure to ask questions that cannot be replied with “yes” or “no”. For example, don't ask “Do you have a dog？” Instead, say “So, tell me about your pets.” Avoiding asking “yes” or “no” questions makes your possible friend not end your communication with a one-word answer.
12. Why does the author begin the text with Lisa's worry
A. To set a sad tone. B. To share Lisa's pain.
C. To introduce the topic. D. To teach readers a lesson.
13. What can be a risk caused by reaching out to others according to the passage
A. Being refused by others. B. Putting ourselves in danger.
C. Being treated in a rude way. D. Losing interest in communicating.
14. What can we know from Paragraph 5
A. Shy people are hard to talk to.
B. Popular people are often easy-going.
C. Just waiting for chances will waste our time.
D. A proper manner is important in making friends.
15. Why does the author suggest not asking “yes” or “no” questions
A. It is considered unfriendly.
B. It will leave a bad first impression.
C. It shows the poor quality of the speaker.
D. It isn't good for keeping a conversation going.

Four habits to live a happier life
Having a happier life is something we all always struggle for, and being happy includes so many aspects（方面）—mental, physical and spiritual（精神的）—of our lives. One of the key principles of having a happier life is to always do things that bring
us happiness. 16 Consider the following habits to improve your life and make it
as happy as you possibly can.
Praise others.
Be kind to others, like praising them. 17
Don't be afraid to tell people how
great they look, or how awesome their smile is. It'll do them good, and do you good too!
Focus on the present moment.
Take some time every day to focus on the present moment. 18 Try not to
think about negative past experiences and hug the time you have now. You'll soon find that even the slightest thing that you do at this moment can bring about happiness for many hours and days to come.
Learn to control your emotions.
19 And it's definitely not worth the emotions. Don't compromise on your happiness just because someone is trying to pick a fight. Just let it go(不要理会)and be happier.
20
Just before you go to bed, write down at least one wonderful thing that happened. It might be something as small as a child's laugh or something as huge as a million- dollar deal. Whatever it is, be grateful for that day because it will never come again.
A. End each day with thankfulness.
B. Of course, everyone loves to be happy.
C. It is the only certain(特定的) time we have in our life.
D. It can make people happy and give them confidence.
E. It's not worth the argument when your partner is testing your patience.
F. So it is important to develop the right habits to ensure we live a happier life.
G. Try to set aside a few hours a day, doing something fun to make yourself happy.

smiled, lifted her little arm, and began to 32 at us. My son and I both
33 and waved back at this little angel. Just then the gray clouds parted quickly and the 34 broke through to kiss that little girl.
