Not only the views,7.also the residents, touched me. I once found my cell phone8. (miss) during my stay in the city. After searching through every corner of my room and my pockets, I almost gave up hope. Unexpectedly, an hour9.(late) my mother picked up a phone call from a policeman who10.(say) a taxi driver had returned the phone. The policeman then returned my phone very soon.

The trip to Shanghai is one of the best in my memory.

Thirteen can be a challenging age. Not only did I have to adapt to my changing body, I also had to deal with my parents’ bitter divorce, a new family and the upsetting move from my country home to a crowded town.

When we moved, my beloved companion, a small brown pony had to be sold. I was heartbroken and terribly lonely. I couldn’t eat or sleep and cried all the time. Finally, realizing how much I missed my pony, my father bought me another horse, Cowboy.

Cowboy was without doubt the ugliest horse in the world. But I didn’t care. I loved him beyond all reason.

I joined a riding club. When Cowboy and I entered the events where the horse was judged by appearance, we were quickly “shown the gate”. I knew nothing could turn Cowboy into a beauty. My only chance to compete would be in the timed speed events. I chose the jumping race.

For the whole next month we practiced running and jumping for hours in the hot sun and then I would walk Cowboy home, totally exhausted.

All of our hard work didn’t make me feel confident by the time the show came. One girl named Becky rode a big brown horse in the race events. She always won the blue ribbons. I sat at the gate and sweated all out while I watched Becky and her horse charge through the court and finish in first place.

My turn finally came. At the signal, we dashed toward the first fence, jumped over it without trouble and raced on to the next one. Cowboy then flew over the second, third and fourth fences like a bird and I turned him toward the finish line.

No cheers filled the air. The end of our run was met with surprised silence. Cowboy and I had beaten Becky and her fancy horse by two seconds.

I gained much more than a blue ribbon that day. At thirteen, I realized that no matter what the odds are, I’d always come out a winner if I wanted something badly enough to work for it. I can be the owner of my fate.

A small robot may help children who are recovering from long-term illnesses in the hospital or at home.

These children may feel isolated from their friends and classmates.The robot takes their place at school. Through the robot,the children can hear their teachers and friends.They also can take part in class from wherever they are recovering.

A Norwegian company called No Isolation created a robot.The co-founders of No Isolation are Karen Dolva and Marius Aabel.The robot is called AV1.AV1 goes to school for a child who is at home while recovering from a long-term illness.And the child's school friends must help.They carry the robot between classes and place the robot on the child's desk.

Dolva explains how the robot AV1 works.She says,from home,the child uses a tablet or phone to start the robot. Then she/he uses the same device to control the robot's movements.At school,the robot becomes the eyes,ears and voice of the child.The child can take part in classroom activities from wherever she/he is recovering—whether at home or from a hospital bed.The robot is equipped with speakers,microphones and cameras that make communicating easy.It was designed to be tough.It is water resistant and can take a fall from a desk without damage.

Inside AV1,there is a small computer connected to a 4G network.A small camera hooked up to a small computer could do the job.But that would not be the same.AV1 is large and looks like a human for a reason.Dolva says this is important because the robot is supposed to be a friend to the children.

And robots are,quite simply,cool.The robot just became available to the public.Hopefully AV1 will help some children feel less lonely while they are absent from class.

A fish may not be the first creature that comes to mind when co-operation in the animal world is mentioned, but a new study has shown the caring behavior of one sea species. Scientists have found that pairs of rabbitfishes will help and support each other while feeding. While such behavior has been recorded for birds and mammals, it had formerly been thought to be impossible for fishes to exhibit the same features.

"We found that rabbitfish pairs manage their caring activity quite firmly, thus providing safety for their partner that is looking for food," says Dr. Simon Brandl. "In other words, one partner stays ‘on guard’ while the other feeds – these fishes just watch each others’ back," Dr. Brandl says. "This behavior is so far unique among fishes and appears to be based on reciprocal cooperation between pair members."

Reciprocal cooperation, which requires an investment in a partner that is later reciprocated(报答), is supposed to require complex cognitive and social skills — something that fishes had been considered not to have until now.

Dr. Brandl says the research shows clear support and presents interesting evidence for reciprocal support between the rabbitfish pairs.

"There has been a long debate about whether reciprocal cooperation can exist in animals that lack the highly developed cognitive and social skills found in humans and a few species of birds and primates," he said. "By showing that fishes — which are commonly considered to be cold, unsocial, and unintelligent — are able to have reciprocal cooperative systems, we provide evidence that cooperation may not be as special as earlier expected."

Professor Bellwood says that our opinion of fishes as cold creatures is slowly changing. "Our findings should further cause efforts to understand fishes as highly developed organisms with complex social behaviors. This may also require a change in how we study and treat fishes."

【题文1】 What does the first paragraph imply?

A. Rabbitfishes almost act like birds and mammals.

B. Fishes don’t belong to the animal world at all.

C. Fishes have the ability to feed each other.

D. The caring behavior is impossible for fishes.

【题文2】While one rabbitfish feeds, the other one _________.

A. is protecting its partner from any danger B. is carrying some food for its partner

C. is looking for more food for its partner D. is hiding behind the back of its partner

【题文3】 What did people use to think about fishes?

A. They have the same behaviors. B. They show no feelings for others.

C. They have high social skills. D. They support each other all the time.

【题文4】What can we infer from what Bellwood said?

A. We should change our way of eating fish.

B. The behaviors of fishes are difficult to learn.

C. More efforts are needed to understand fish.

D. Our study of social behaviors should be careful.

I think the majority of people would agree that it’s unhealthy to live in the past. After all, we’re all familiar with the new age philosophy, “Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift.1.. Living in the past holds us back from being able to enjoy the present moment. But are there any benefits of revisiting a previous time? Actually, yes. The past has several advantages:

Learning from our mistakes: We all know that poor choices can be some of life’s greatest teachers.2..

3.: By revisiting an unfavorable event from our past, we can often view it from a different perspective as time has passed. Being older and wiser, we are now able to reevaluate the experience and gain deeper insights and understandings of what happened and why, and how it has impacted us since. What once scarred us can now be healed through a newly-found awareness and no longer be a negative force in our lives.

Motivated by earlier successes:4.. Other times life has been difficult. Remembering the past when we were at our best can help motivate us out of our current slump(低谷) and put us back on track for success. Use your past successes to propel(推动) you on to newer and greater things.

While it’s evident that revisiting the past has several advantages, there is a warning. Just like an amusement park, it’s fine to visit but you cannot stay there forever. At some point, the park closes and all visitors are asked to leave. Enjoy the past when necessary but don’t always stay there. Use it for living in the present and planning for the future.5..

A. Moving beyond

B. That’s why it’s called the present

C. In that way, it will serve you well

D. See the mistakes as a step on the road to a solution

E. There are times when we have all enjoyed success on a variety of levels

F. Recalling times when we made mistakes can help us make better future decisions

G. So, failure is the mother of success
