“Now stretch(伸展) over your right leg!” my dance teacher yells over the music. “If it doesn't hurt, you're not trying hard enough. Hold that stretch for 30 seconds!" My dance teacher works hard to form us into the dancers we desire to be. In order for this to occur, we stretch hard a lot!

     Dancing is a real passion of many people, including me. I work hard to make myself better, and prove that I am good enough. Performing a dance routine is more than just a  performance. Dancers tell stories when they dance. It is a way for us to express our personal feelings. Just letting go and letting your body move with the music can create your emotions. Dance tells us things that our mind secretly hides.

    “Get up and do it again!  You need to keep your spirits up!” Even though I am completely worn out after my dances, I love to hear those words. It gives me a sense of relief knowing that I can again express my feelings out on the floor.

    “Practice makes perfect! Come on. We have a competition this weekend, and we need to work harder!” Competitions are the best possible example of fun. For a dancer, life cannot get better than competitions. The thrill of losing yourself onstage is a rush of energy rushing through your body! The feeling is unexplainable. As you sit there putting on your makeup, fixing your hair, and putting on your costume, the rush just gradually grows until it is ready to be released onstage.

     Finally the time comes to tell your story. Standing backstage waiting for your name to be called is one of the scariest moments. You are ready to show the world what you are capable of and what you have been perfecting for a while. Once your number is called, you walk out onstage. The applause at the end tells each dancer that their story has been received, and that the dance has been brought to life.

  A. Build up her confidence.             B. Keep encouraged and cheerful.

A. an improvement in her life.            

B. an opportunity to have fun.

C. a reflection of her perfect thoughts.     

D. a way to experience the scariest moment

  Ask any kid, and you'll likely hear that time spent with friends is the coolest and most important part of the school day. Educators, as well, acknowledge that making friends is one of the most valuable things children do as they learn and grow. But many parents are perplexed by their children's social lives, wondering how to help their kids cope with the challenges, heartbreaks, and the joys of making friends, losing them, and making friends again.
    “Friendships help children gradually learn to be independent, contributing members of a community and it's just as important as their academic growth” notes Diane Levin, Ph.D., author of “Remote Control Childhood.” However, it's a slow process. There are many social skills to learn, which advance with age and experience, trial and error, and experiencing the satisfaction that comes from contributing to an ongoing friendship.”
    “Friendship starts as soon as children can crawl off their parents' laps over to another child,” adds Michael Thompson, Ph.D., co-author of her life with you to her life with her friends. but who their friends are, how they interact with them, and how popular they are, is something parents have only limited control over.”
    Experts on children's behavior say that problems like jealousies, breakups, bullying and teasing account for a big part of what parents, kids and teachers talk about, and what parents worry about.
    Get insights into how children's friendships develop and how parents can help, if needed, and find ways to determine if your child is at risk for serious social problems or simply suffering from real (but common) social challenges.   

9. While staying at school, kids usually feel that          .           

A.staying with friends is a good experience
B.making friends is the most important thing
C.communicating with friends is a great challenge
D.they can't grow well without friends around them

10. What does the underlined word “perplexed” mean in Paragraph1?           

A.Encouraged    B.Touched    C.Attracted    D.Puzzled.

11. Why is the effect of friendships on children's growth a slow process?           

A.They have to focus on academic subjects.
B.They are too young to benefit from friendships.
C.They can't master all social skills in one day.
D.They often make mistakes while making friends.

12. Which of the following suggests the beginning of friendship?           

A.Children don't stay on parents' lap any longer.
B.Children get out of the control of their parents.
C.Children don't share their stories with their parents.
D.Children leave their parents for other kids willingly.

  Growing roses is quite a difficult task without knowing the right way. If you are attracted by the beauty of roses and need some tips for growing them, read on for some tips about taking care of rose plants.

   ● You have to buy a good plant, preferably around two years old.

   ● While most rose plants can tolerate around six hours of sunlight every day, some varieties need eight hours of sunlight exposure. The shade-loving roses need only four hours of sunlight.

   ● You will have to soak(浸泡) the roots overnight, before planting. If you plant it in a container, then the watering should be done daily, whereas garden roses need water once or twice a week.

   ● The next point is the application of fertilizers（肥料）, which is mainly needed by rose plants in containers. Most of the varieties do not need fertilizers, as they can feed on the nutrients that exist in the soil. There is no need of fertilization during November and December, and the frequency of fertilization can be reduced during the summers, especially after April. It can be restarted in September and has to be increased during the growing periods.

   ● Cutting the stems promotes the growth of the plant and also aids flowering. It should be done regularly to remove dead or diseased leaves and stems.

   Rose plants can be successfully grown by beginners too! With some care and consideration, all your efforts would definitely be worth it once you smell the fragrance of beautiful roses. 

13. You can put shade-loving roses in the sun as long as ______.

   A. 2 hours         B. 4 hours         C. 6 hours         D. 8 hours

14. You should stop fertilizing rose plants in _______.

15. To grow a rose in a garden, you should _______.

   A. prevent cutting the stems          

B. water the plant every day

   C. avoid removing the diseased leaves

D. make the roots soaked for a night before planting

How to Overcome Worry

   When we worry about an event that may not occur，we waste precious energy and time. There is a philosophy that if we worry about something it is actually more likely to happen；we attract the negative event through our negative thoughts. Worry never helps，it just leaves us without peace of mind.     16   

Here are a few steps that will help.

    1．Concentrate on the Present

   Worry means we are advancing into the future and speculating that the worst might happen. Worrying about the future is not helpful.     17     Many religious texts tell us，“Do not worry about tomorrow，for tomorrow will take care of itself.”

    2．Imagine How Good Things Can Occur

   If we concentrate on the negative，it is likely to create negative emotions and negative thoughts. If we worry，this in itself is a problem for us；it becomes a vicious cycle(恶性循环)．If you find yourself often in a state of fear or worry，make a conscious effort to visualize  the best outcome. Imagine yourself doing the best you can in the circumstances and then being detached(分开)from the result. The mind needs to be occupied.     18    

    3．     19    

   Someone once told me this trick. Place all your worries in a box(write them down on a piece of paper)and then open the box in a week's time. Many of these worries will not have materialized，so you can cross them out.     20     In this way，you can put your worries away. You will also see how many worries prove groundless. When you realise how so many worries fail to materialise，you will find it easier to stop worrying in the first place.

A．Do Whatever You can and then Relax

B．So it is important to be able to overcome unnecessary worry.

C．We are not responsible for what the world says.

D．Put Worries in a Box and Open Them Later

E．So it is best to have it focused on something positive.

F．Just concentrate on the present and the task in hand.

G．If you still have things to worry about，leave them for another week.

People have all turned to sad music to make      41     (they) feel better at some point in their lives, but why does the music with double sadness help drag people out of low spirits? A new study throws light on what's going on inside people's brains when they match their music to their feelings, and it looks as if sad music can be enjoyable, rather than      42     (simple) depressing. Music of this sort can arouse positive memories in people's life, thus       43    (lift) their mood. Psychologist Adrian North from Curtin University in Australia says      44    exist two groups of possible explanations for why people enjoy listening      45   sad music——one from social psychology(心理学), and the other from cognitive neuroscience (神经学). In terms of social psychology, one idea about this is that people will feel     46       (good) about themselves if they focus on someone who’s doing even worse. Everything's going to be okay, because this person is having     47    even worse day than they are. Another idea from social psychology is that people like to listen to the very music    48     shows their present life circumstances, because this kind of music makes them feel they are understood. With their emotions     49     (share), they definitely get a certain amount of comfort. So sad music does cheer people up, and it      50     (work) far better than happy music, in most cases.
