Very soon it disappeared from sight. After a while, I came around a curve（弯道）and found the 29 car. The driver was walking along the roadside. He was an elderly man and looked 30 , with no telephone nearby and the nearest services were twenty miles away. I decided to 31 and see what the problem was.

You probably think the music that your parents like is old and dull. and the songs on your playlist are much cooler. But here is what scientists found: people’s music tastes change with their age. according to a study. So it is likely that your own musical preferences will follow a similar path to your parents’.
we used to think that culture and personality are the only factors that affect one's music choice. But researchers at the University of Cambridge got data from more than 250, 000 people over the past 10 years, They noticed that as people grow, and so does their music taste. There are three musical periods as people grow up---“exciting” , “popular” and “sophisticated”.
The first period comes in the teenage years. People prefer exciting music such as punk and rock, because teenagers tend to be active. But as people move into early adulthood. they hope to build close relationships with others. As a resu1t, they become more fond of popular music, such as pop and R&B, which are usually uplifting and danceable. When middle age comes, things have settled down for most people. In this period they will like more "sophisticated" music better, such as jazz and classical, as well as more catchy music like country and blues. For many, they feel tired because of work and family, and they need relaxing and emotive music.
But you must be thinking: "Aren't there old people who are still into rock music Of course there are. But Jason Rentfrow, a research member explained that their reasons for listening to rock music may have changed. "We like music for different reasons,” he said, and thus at that age people may listen to music that can remind themselves of their youths.

What is life's greatest gift It is choice. Choice is the ability to choose some actions from a set of things to achieve a goal. 51 The reason is that it turns us from dumb animals into artists. Choice becomes the tool we use to sculpt (雕刻) our life. The tool doesn't come free, however, for the price of choice is responsibility. 52 It is enjoyment.
Choice is power. Choice is at the heart of life. It is the creative power of life. Life is always changing and we have to make lots of choices. 53 We often need to check where we are on our journey. We need to ask questions: Am I moving closer to my goals If not, what action will I take
now to make myself realize my goals
54 And our life becomes more convenient or comfortable because of them. For example, you decide which store to shop at and which bus station to go to. But the decisions that we make to
sculpt our lives are much more important than deciding where to shop. The more we understand the
difference between small and big decisions, the more pleasure we will get.
Life is like a chess game. 55 All chess lovers realize that it isn't necessary to win to enjoy the game. Make the best moves you can under the conditions. Then you can enjoy your life.
A. Why is choice so great B. The pleasure is in the playing. C. In fact, we have to make choices every day. D. But when we accept and carry it out, we get a great return. E. Because making right choices is more important than working hard F. Every choice we make leads us closer to or farther from our goals. G. Do you enjoy making choices

Be a virtue teenager, build a civilized city
Being a teenager of our city, what should we do to help build a civilized city
Firstly, when in public places, we should respect the elderly and take care of the young. We should also be friendly and helpful to others; Secondly, when having a conversation, we should speak politely and be patient enough to listen; Thirdly, when on the road, we should obey the traffic rules and give seats when necessary.
As junior students, I think it's our duty to do as the above. At the same time, we should try our best to study hard and obey all the school rules. In this way, we can be a virtue teenager and help to build our city into a civilized one. I hope everyone will join us and try to be a virtue teenager.
