10.Dad was always full of advice.One of the biggest lessons he taught me one summer was about having  (26)a  strong work ethic(道德规范).When my brother and I were growing up,we mowed(修剪) lawns during the summer (27)to earn(earn) pocket money.
Every time we went to work,my dad was there to watch.I used to wonder (28)whyhe came with us.One day we were cutting our neighbor's yard.She always waited until the grass was knee-high to call us over.That afternoon,I was finishing the work and was  (29)tired (tire).I was just about to turn off the mower (30)whenI saw Dad pointing to some grass.I thought about how little I was getting paid for cutting grass so high that it almost broke the mower.I ignored him and kept walking.Dad called me (31)loudly(loud),"You missed a piece."
I frowned,(32)hoping   (hope) he would go home.He kept pointing.So worn and discouraged,I went back to cut that piece of grass.I said to myself,"That one piece isn't hurting anyone.Why won't he just let it go?"
Other neighbors took notice of the good work  (33)that/which   we did and we soon got more business.We started out with one client,but by the end of the summer we had five.
The lesson my dad taught me stayed with me:be  (34)professional   (profession).Give your customers the kind of service you would like to receive.It shows how sincere you are and how much pride you take  (35)in   your work.

8.The UK has a wellrespected higher education system and some of the top universities and research institutions in the world.But to those who are new to it all,sometimes it can be confusing.
October is usually the busiest month in the college calendar.Universities have something called Freshers'Week for their newcomers.It's a great opportunity to make new friends,join lots of clubs and settle into university life.
However,having just left the comfort of home and all your friends behind,the prospect(前景)of meeting lots of strangers in big halls can be nervewracking(令人头痛的).Where do you start?Who should you make friends with?Which clubs should you join?
Luckily,there will be thousands of others in the same boat as you worrying about starting their university social life on the right foot.So just take it all in slowly.Don't rush into anything that you'll regret for the next three years.
Here is some top advice from past students on how to survive Freshers'Week:
●Learn rules.Make sure you know British social etiquette(礼节).Have a few wine glasses and snacks handy for your housemates and friends.
●Be kind.Sometimes cups of tea or even slices of toast can give you a head start in making friends.
●Be sociable.The more active you are,the more likely you'll be to meet new people than if you're someone who never leaves their room.
●Bring a doorstop.Keep your door open when you're in and that sends positive messages to your neighbors that you're friendly.
So with a bit of clever planning and effort,Freshers'Week can give you a great start to your university life and soon you'll be passing on your experience to next year's new recruits.
