I started middle school this year, and this caused some painful changes for me. All of my closest friends go to different middle schools in the area. The only classmate I know from my old school is Jake, who's talented in math, but since it's not my favorite subject, we never became friends.

Another big change is that my new teachers set a lot of homework, especially in math. So you can imagine why my heart wasn't exactly dancing when I started middle school.

By the end of October, Jake and I had become good friends. It happened because I was so hopeless trying to do my math homework. One day, I came to Jake after school.

“Hey, Jake, ”I began, "I was wondering if you could."

“Help you with the math homework, right?" he said, completing my sentence. "Sure, I'd be happy to help you, Miguel.” I was surprised because, to be truthful, I wasn't sure until that moment if Jake even knew my name. And yet here he was happy to save me from drowning in my sea of math problems.

That night, Jake and I studied together, and it was time well spent. I must say that Jake is an excellent math teacher.

The next day in class, I was even able to answer one of the math problems. Our teacher was surprised when I raised my hand, and guess what-so was I!

They say time flies when you're having fun, and I guess it's really true. I can't believe winter vacation is almost here! The school days have been flying by like a jet plane. I suppose it's because I'm a much more focused student-especially in math-than I ever was before.

Jake and I plan to hang out together during winter break. He promised to show me the Math Museum downtown. I believe it will be an unforgettable experience for us.

1.How did the writer feel when he started middle school?

A.Disappointed. B.Upset. C.Regretful. D.Shy.

2.From the story, we know Jake is________.

A.strict B.brave C.hardworking D.helpful

3.The writer feels his school days flying because__________.

A.he has little homework

B.he enjoys his studies more

C.he has a lot of new friends

D.his teachers are kind to him

Mom and dad are two of the most important people in your life. You probably see at least one of them every day and, over your lifetime, they influence you more than anyone else you meet.

Moms and dads need to care for their kids from the minute they're born. It's a parent's job to love and help kids — and most parents will do this as possible as they can, even when the ''kids'' grow up and have children of their own. That means you have many years ahead to share with your mom and dad.

Here are some ways you can stay close, get along, and build a strong relationship (关系):

Spend time together. Don't play a computer game or watch TV by yourself. Ask your mom and dad to play with you, go outside together, play a game, or read a book out loudly. Try to spend more time together.

Share your feelings and ask for help. Many kids say they'd like their parents to help them when they're unhappy. So if you're sad or have a problem, tell your parents and ask for help. They'll be happy to help you.

Be kind and caring. Little things might mean a lot to your mom and dad. You can brighten a parent's day with a hug, a card or a joke. It's also lovely when a kid cleans up his or her room without being asked. It's important to show that you care for each other. Kids and parents show their love by respecting (尊重) each other, and being caring, polite and thoughtful.

Do your best at whatever you do. You don't have to be perfect, but when you do your best, you make your parents proud. It makes them happy to see how you're turning into such a great kid. Why? Because it lets them know you're doing a good job.

1.Do kids' parents in?uence them more than anyone else?

2.What can kids do if they are sad or have a problem?

3.How do kids and parents show their love?

4.What do kids' parents feel when they do their best?

5.What does the passage mainly talk about?

Do you like your name? Names are important to us. We have to live with our names for our whole lifetime.

For this reason(原因), some parents in the US and Europe try very hard to give their children special names. Some people even pay a “naming expert(起名专家)” to pick a name for them. It is expensive most of the time.

Can you imagine astronauts’ everyday life in space? They also need to eat, sleep, exercise and relax. They do the same things as us, but they do them differently.

On Earth, we put food on a plate. Gravity holds the food down and keeps it on a place. But there is almost no gravity in space, so food can float away, and astronauts must eat carefully.

Sleeping is very different in space. Some astronauts like to float in the air, but most like to be in a sleeping bag. They tie（系；系住）the bag to a wall so that they won't float away at night.

Exercise is very important in space. On Earth, your legs carry your body, but in space, astronauts float, so they don’t use their legs often. This is very bad for their legs, so they must exercise for thirty minutes every day.

After a day’s work, astronauts relax. They may listen to music, read, watch film, play games, or talk to their friends and family on the radio. Sometimes they just enjoy floating in the air.
