26、

Zhang Guimei is a teacher and principal of Huaping Girls’ High School in Lijiang City. The school is the first full-tuition-free high school in China, helping poor girls continue their studies after completing the nine-year education. In the past 12 years, Zhang has helped over 1,600 girls.

Zhang moved to Yunnan at the age of 17. Later, she grew up to be a teacher. In 1996, she voluntarily moved to teach in the mountainous Huaping. But the next year, she got seriously sick and had no money to pay for the surgery. Thanks to the local government and people, she was able to get the necessary treatment. “I told myself I must live on. I fought the disease to see if I could survive. And I remembered deeply in my heart that I must repay this love from those who helped me,” Zhang said.

Driven by the idea of opening a free high school for girls in 2002, Zhang began a six-year journey looking for funds and donations. In 2008, Zhang was finally able to realize her dream and Huaping Girls’ High school was set up.

Over the 12 years, Zhang has given all of the donations and most of her salary, totaling more than one million yuan, to the school and the education of the young girls in the area.

“It is she that gives us girls from the mountainous areas the chance to see the world outside,” said Yang Qian, a college student who graduated from Zhang’s school.

Touched by Zhang’s story and spirit, the Yunnan Normal University has planned some projects to work with Huaping Girls’ High School and promised to send 46 future graduates as volunteer teachers each year to the school.

27、   “Homestay is a form of study abroad program. It allows the visitor to rent a room from a local family to better understand the local lifestyle. It also helps to improve the visitor’s language ability,” said a teacher during a school meeting last term, “Students who wish to learn more about foreign cultures or to get foreign experiences should join this kind of holiday. I am sure you won’t be disappointed(失望的).”

After this special meeting, I always thought about this kind of holiday. Last month, I had a chance at last to go on such a holiday with some of my schoolmates and we went to London, a place where I had wanted to go since years ago.

As we were still young, we had a group leader who planned things for us and looked after us. After we got to London, we went to stay with different families. I was lucky that my host family(寄宿家庭) was a white couple who had a daughter about my age. They treated me as a daughter of their family during my stay there. They were interested in me and I learnt a lot of things from them, too.

The holiday was filled with activities every day. After breakfast, a local teacher would come to take us in his car. Then we would have classes or go on a sight-seeing trip to different places of interest like the Big Ben, the London Bridge, and the Buckingham Palace. We would go back to our own homes after the activities.

The holiday was a valuable experience for me. I enjoyed every minute of it. Yet, time really flew fast. Three weeks later, we had to leave “home” for Hong Kong.

28、在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给。

The power of positive thinking

Is your glass of milk half-full or half-empty? This question is often used to t【1】 people’s attitude in a situation: People who stay active always have positive thinking (a half-full glass), while those who are negative usually look on the other side (a half-empty one).

Why is positive thinking good for you?

Research shows that people who have positive thinking are likely to experience l【2】 stress and can do better when faced with challenges. However, people who always expect the worst to happen may find it hard to believe these challenges will pass. Scientists have found that thinking positively can make you happier and more s【3】. This is because you believe that you can reach your goals, which encourages you to work towards them.

Why is worrying like a fire alarm?

Everybody can worry from time to time. Worrying can help to keep you safe. If you were never worried, you wouldn’t notice the danger ahead. But the f【4】 is that it sometimes goes off when there isn’t a huge danger to face. When this happens, you may feel upset and anxious about what is going to happen.

How do I deal with the ‘fire alarm’?

1.Go somewhere peaceful and c【5】 yourself. Take five deep breaths and think of your favourite sports stars. What would they say?

2.Talk to a friend or trusted adult about your worries and try to understand where the ‘fire alarm’ is coming from.

3.Sometimes the alarm will d【6】 if you sing to yourself, listen to music, cuddle the cat, have a bath or have something to eat or drink.

How can I be positive?

These words are taken from children’s books for your reference.

1.‘Happiness can be found even in the d【7】 times, if one remembers to turn on the light.’

2.‘I am not afraid of storms, for I am learning how to sail my ship.’
