【题目】 A Chicago six-year-old girl’s decision to feed the homeless instead of receiving presents on her birthday is touching the hearts of many not only in the area, but also across the country.

Armani Crews had been begging her parents for a few months to feed homeless people in her community.

“I said, ‘OK, we’ll make some sandwiches,’ to which Armani said, ‘No. I want the same thing we’d have at my birthday party,’” her mother recalled.

Even when her father, Antoine, told her that if she wanted to go through with this, she wouldn’t get a birthday gift, the girl, whose birthday was March 5, wouldn’t give in.

So the Chicago family spent about $300 buying food to send to homeless people in the city’s East Garfield Park neighborhood. They bought chicken, fish, corn, green beans, mashed potatoes, rolls, cake, cookies, fruit and water.

After Armani mentioned her plan at the family’s local church, the church members donated (捐赠) other items to create care packages for the homeless.

Armani’s birthday party was a success, with the family feeding more than 125 people who gathered.

In a statement, the six-year-old girl told ABC News, “It was nice to be nice.” Her mother added, “She was excited and happy. Everybody was being fed. One gentleman said he hadn’t had a hot meal in a long time.”

【题目】Advice for Graduates

Thank you for letting me share this wonderful day with you. The next part of my speech consists of some advice, which is rarely valued, seldom remembered, never followed. As Oscar Wilde said, 1 So, here comes the advice.

First, every time you celebrate an achievement, 2 Thank your parents and friends who supported you, thank your professors who were inspirational, and especially thank the other professors whose less-than brilliant lectures forced you to teach yourself. To your fellow students who have added immeasurably to your education during those late night discussions, hug them.

Second, in your future life, cultivate a generous spirit. 3 Leave the change on the table. In a successful cooperation, everybody gets 90 percent of the profit.

My third piece of advice is as follows: As you begin this new stage of your lives, follow your passion. If you don’t have a passiondon’t be satisfied until you find one. 4 When I was your age, I was incredibly single-minded in my goal to be a physicist. After college, I spent eight years as a graduate student and postdoc at Berkeley, and then nine years at Bell Labs. During that my time, my central focus and professional joy was physics.

Here is my final advice. Pursuing a personal passion is important, but it should not be your only goal. When you are old and gray, and look back on your life, you will want to be proud of what you have done. The source of that pride won’t be the things you have acquired or the recognition you have received. 5

A.It will be the lives you have touched and the difference you have made.

B.In all negotiations, don’t bargain for the last, little advantage.

C.“I like to do all the talking myself. It saves time, and prevents arguments.”

D.“The only thing to do with good advice is to pass it on. It is never of any use to oneself.”

E.Life is too short to go through it without caring deeply about something.

F.be thankful to those who made it possible.

G.Change your manners when you are dealing with others.

【题目】 Staying fit and healthy plays an important role in our life. People sometimes ignore their health because of the busy daily schedules but there are some little things that you can do each day that will add to being healthy and fit. Here are some ways to stay fit and healthy.

Get regular check-ups. One should get a physical check-up every year to make sure everything is as it should be. 1Getting physical examinations regularly benefits you because if and when something is wrong, you will get to know about it timely.

2One should walk for a few minutes every day to stay fit. It improves body awareness and can help reduce pressure. Exercise helps to strengthen the heart and lungs, strength training helps to strengthen the muscles and stretching helps to reduce the risk of injury.

Eat breakfast. One should have healthy breakfast as it keeps you energetic for the best mental and physical performance. 3It also helps to keep a healthy weight because you are less likely to overwork later in the day.

Don’t skip lunch. We are trying to lose weight. We don’t have time and end up working through our lunch break. But try to eat a light lunch each day.
