Till now, I have been a student at my school for nine years. For me, it has been an amazing golden age. It is like the happiest dream. Here I began to learn the alphabet (字母表) and now can use different ways to solve problems. I never forgot the warm welcome on the first day when I came to this school to study. It determines why my life at school is so important to me. My life at school makes me learn something new almost every day. It helps me to get an understanding of knowledge.

Yet thanks to my friends and teachers, I corrected (改正) my mistakes and kept on studying hard. That is how I found the real meaning of love from school life. In my ears, their words are still ringing. I still remember my friends and me sharing lunch during the lunch break, playing basketball, trusting each other, taking part in different activities, and of course, taking the short trips. Now that I look back, it is no less than a fairy tale. I entered my school crying, not wanting to let go of my mother’s hand, scared of the new place and new people.

The story of “Mencius’s Mother Moves Three Times” is one of them. It tells us how important the environment is for a person’s growth.The story happened in ancient China. Mencius became a great thinker in Chinese history. When he was a child, his mother moved house three times to provide him with a good growing environment. First, they lived near a cemetery. Young Mencius started learning games about funerals from other children. His mother thought this was not good, so she decided to move. Next, they moved next to a marketplace. Mencius then began to learn how to buy, sell, and shout like merchants. His mother still thought this was not good for his growth. Finally, they moved near a school. Here, Mencius started to learn manners and knowledge. His mother was finally satisfied. She believed this was the right place for her child. Later, Mencius studied hard and became a great scholar.This story shows that traditional Chinese parenting values the influence of the external environment on a child’s behavior and character. Parents believe that choosing a place with a positive atmosphere for their children, such as being near places that encourage learning and good behavior, can help children develop good habits and noble morals. This is similar to modern ideas which also stress the role of social environment. Meanwhile, the story also shows the great effort and care parents put into their children’s growth. They don’t just tell children what to do; they take action—like moving their home—to create the best conditions.Of course, modern education also emphasizes that besides the external environment, it is equally important to develop children’s inner abilities like self-control, responsibility, and emotional management skills. Just as we learned in this unit, we need to learn to deal with our emotions, control our anger, and take responsibility for our actions.36．Why did Mencius’s mother decide to move the first time? 37．Where did they finally move to? 38．According to the passage, what does the story show about traditional Chinese parenting values? 39．Besides a good environment, what inner abilities does modern education think are important to develop in children? (Name at least two) 40．Do you think parents today should try their best to create a perfect environment for their children? Why or why not? 四、短文填空（10分）阅读下面短文，在空白处填入一个适当的词或填入括号中单词的正确形式。I am now in Grade 8 in middle school.
