11．Most people need to hear"I love you"．Once in a while，they hear them just（41）C．
I met Connie the day she was（42）B to the hospice ward （病房），where I worked as a（43）D．Her husband，Bill，stood nervous nearby as she was （44）B to the hospital bed．While Connie was in the final （45）B of her fight against cancer，she was （46）D．
Connie was a （47）C．As we became acquainted，she confided （吐露） how （48）D it was to be married 32years to a man who often called her"a silly woman"．
"I know Bill loves me．"she said．"But he has never been one to say he loves me，or send cards to me．I'd give anything if he'd say‘I love you'，but it's just not in his （49）A．"
Soon，when Connie had fewer（50）C moments，I began spending more of my volunteer time with Bill．
One day，I got him on the （51）Bof women，how we need romance in our lives and how we love to got sentimental cards．
"I don't have to，"he said．"She knows I do!"
"I'm sure she knows，"I said，"but she needs to hear what she has （52）D to you all these years．Please think about it．"
Two days later I walked down the hospice ward at noon．There stood Bill，leaning （53）Cthe wall in the hallway and staring at the floor．I already knew Connie had （54）D at 11a．m．
When I saw Bill．his face was wet with （55）C and he was （56）B．

I went into the room to say goodbye to Connie．There，on the bedside table，was a large Valentine （59）A from Bill，（60）B："To my wonderful wife…I love you．"

10．How to Help Children Learn from Their Mistakes
Everyone makes mistakes．（36）EAs parents，it's our duty to help our children learn from their mistakes．Turning a mistake into a learning experience will help your child grow and mature．Here are some tips for helping children learn from their mistakes．
Explain exactly what the mistake is．It's important to make your child accept the fact that he made a mistake．Talk with your child and help him exactly understand what he did is not right．
（37）GNever assume he knows； always talk over the problem clearly and thoroughly．
Instruct your child to make an apology if his mistakes hurt others．This step takes a mistake that involves another person even further．（38）DBy making your child go to see and talk with the person who was hurt，he will more fully understand the results of the mistake and learn from that bad experience．
Offer suggestions in different ways to lead your child to avoid making the same mistakes again．You can choose to share your personal examples if you had the same problem before．
（39）AHe may not want to do exactly the same thing，but it will get him to start in the right direction．
（40）FHaving your child try to work through the problem and figure out how to deal with it on his own will help develop his reasoning skills，which is good for his self-development．In this way，he will know what he should do if a similar situation arises in the future．

A．Tell your child how you solved the problem．
B．Now it's time to help him properly correct mistakes．
C．Praise him if he fully understands the mistake he made．
D．Children need to learn the consequences of their mistakes．
E．Learning from mistakes is what makes us become better people．
F．Encourage your child to find a solution to the problem by himself．
G．Sometimes a child fails to know why the things he did are wrong．

9．Taking photos while on holiday is not an uncom mon activity．Tourists do it all the time，but if you want to take things further，here are some tips that can help you along the way．
First of all，there is the matter of equipment．Of course，most people believe that the higher end your camera is，the better the photos will turn out．（47）B The quality of DSLR cameras（數(shù)碼單反相機(jī)） is superior to the one of small cameras a nd smartphones，but only if you know how to adjust（調(diào)整） their settings．However，if you don't know how to do it，an iPhone camera is enough too．（48）CYou can shoot amazing photos without having to travel with a large and heavy camera．
Secondly，you need to do some research in advance and discover the best photo spots．Your photos don't have to look like travel cards．On the contrary，you can catch the beauty of a place by finding its uncommon corners and subjects．For example，if you're going to a crowded city，don't just take photos of high buildings．（49）EYou may see a new face of the city at that time．
Thirdly，you have to be patient．（50）FFor the best picture，come back to the same spot several times or stay at one spot for some time．You might come across something special as you wait：a bird flying across an old temple，a mother and her baby passing by，or just the sun giving beautiful colors on the roofs．（51）D
Take as many photos as you can and don't be disappointed if your first travel photos are not National Geographic material，because they will get better with time．

A．So this is the most important．
B．But that is only true in a way．
C．Its quality has increased a lot．
D．Don't forget that practice makes perfect．
E．Try street photography or take pictures at night．
F．You may have to take several shots until you discover the right one．

8．I told my friend Graham that I often cycle the two miles from my house to the town centre but unfortunately there is a big hill on the route．He replied，"You mean fortunately．"He explained that I should be glad of the extra exercise that the hill provided．
My attitude to the hill has now changed．（1）DThis hill will exercise my heart and lungs．It will help me to lose weight and get fit．It will mean that I live longer．This hill is my friend．Finally as I ride my way up the hill，I comfort myself with the thought of all those who pay money to go to a gym and sit on stationery （not moving） exercise bicycles when I can get the same value for free．I have a smile of satisfaction as I reach the top of the hill．
Problems are there to be faced and overcome．We cannot achieve anything with an easy life．Helen Keller was the first deaf and blind person to gain a university degree．（2）BShe wrote，"Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet．Only through experiences of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened，vision cleared，ambition inspired and success achieved．"
The key to success in life is our attitude towards adversity（逆境）．（3）GSome are of our making but many are not our fault．While we cannot choose the adversity we can choose our attitude towards it．
Douglas Bader was 21when in 1931he had both legs amputated（截肢） due to a flying accident．He was determined to fly again and went on to become one of the leading pilots in the Battle of Britain with 22aerial（空中的） victories over the Germans．（4）AHe said，"Don't listen to anyone who tells you that you can't do this or that．That's nonsense．Make up your mind，you'll never use crutches or a stick，then have a go at everything．Go to school，join in all the games you can．Go anywhere you want to．（5）F"
The biographies（自傳） of great people are filled with examples of how they took these kinds of steps to overcome the difficulties they faced．The common point is that they did not become depressed．They chose their attitude．They chose to be positive．They took on the challenge．They won．

A．He was an inspiration to others during the war．
B．Her behavior and writing proved inspirational．
C．He developed an action plan for how to deal with it．
D．I used to complain as I approached it but now I tell myself the following．
E．She took a positive attitude and wrote down some advantages of the situation．
F．But never，never let them persuade you that things are too difficult or impossible．
G．From time to time we all face hardships，problems，accidents，suffering and difficulties．

7．School failure is a process in which a student slips farther and farther behind his peers（同齡人）and gradually disconnects from the educational system．The end result of school failure is leaving school before graduation．Many cases of school failure happen among students who have the ability and intelligence to succeed but are not able or willing to apply these abilities in the school setting．
People who fail in school may feel"stupid"，but emotional or mental health problems and"hidden"learning disorders，not low intelligence，often are the root causes of their inability to meet the standards of a school．The following are some factors that can lead to school failure．
Depression is one of the most common causes of school difficulties．It is a condition that makes people trapped in low spirits for long periods of time，have less energy，and lose interest in studies that normally give them pleasure．
Anxiety is a feeling of excessive worry about a possible danger or an uncomfortable situation that is intense enough to interfere with（妨礙）a person's ability to concentrate and focus．
Students also may bring their problems at home to school with them．If a student's family is experiencing violence，unemployment，or any other upsetting situation，it can be ifficult for him to concentrate on schoolwork．Many students who are having family problems might have trouble controlling their anger and frustration at school，and they may end up in trouble because of their behavior．
Learning disorders are conditions that interfere with gaining specific academic skills，such as reading or writing．Learning disorders can damage a person's ability to process or remember information．
Students at risk of school failure need to be identified as early as possible in their school careers if they are to receive the help they need．This task usually falls to the teachers and parents．Parents can help by taking a genuine interest in their children's school life and attending school events．They should take seriously sudden changes in their children's behavior，sleeping，or eating．Besides，they should help their child identify what he or she is bad at or good at．
On the other hand，there are a lot of things teachers can do to help those students who fail in school．For example，they can develop learning plans that support the students'strengths，carry out evaluations about their possible learning disabilities，support their learning by teaching them how to study，and encourage them to participate in school activities，such as sports，plays，or clubs，so that they feel they are a part of the school．
School failure

●The concept of school failure                    School failure refers to a process where a student falls behind others and becomes gradually （66）disconnected/separated from the educational system． ●It can result in a student （67）leaving school early at last． ●School failure is commonly caused by students'inability or unwillingness to use their intelligence． ●The（68）factors leading to school failure   Some students feel depressed，thus becoming less （69）energetic and less interested in studies． ●Some students can't keep （70）concentrating/concentrated/focusing/focused on studies due to their anxiety． ●Many students with family problems might have trouble at school． ●Learning disorders can make students unable to perform well （71）academically． ●Tips for parents   Show your （72）concernabout your child's school life． ●Don't （73）ignore sudden changes in the child's behavior，sleeping or eating． ●Help to identify the child's weaknesses and strengths． ●Tips for teachers                                Develop learning plans to support the students'strengths． ●（74）Evaluatethe students'possible learning disabilities． ●Teach study skills to support the students'learning． ●Involve the students in school activities to make them have a sense of（75）belonging．

6．I remember when someone would mention the words"extraordinary life"，the entire thought seemed only for the rich and famous．The idea seemed unreachable and only came to the lucky few．I finally woke up to the truth that living an extraordinary life could truly be achieved if you focused on the small things．
Here are five simple steps：
Make a list of 100things to do：Take out a piece of paper and write down anything and everything that comes to mind．From the littlest things to the most extreme，it all goes on your list．This simple act of writing this list stretches your imagination and opens up the possibilities to see your life．
Change up your routine：We are creatures of habit and this can lead to staying comfortable．Our life can tend to run on auto-pilot and we spend a large amount of time completely numb to what is happening around us．Therefore，by changing up our typical routine，we begin to have a better understanding of the experiences of our own life．
Learn something new every month or two：Remember when you were a kid and you had to learn something new all the time？You were nervous，excited，and a little scared when you first tried to ride a bike．But once you did it a few times，you began to get the hang of it and suddenly had an increase in your confidence with a feeling like you could fly．Once you begin to push yourself just that little bit extra，you quickly grow your comfort zone and feel braver to do even more．
Hang around with others：There are always those people whose lives are extraordinary．The best way to find out what they do different is to spend a little time with them．See how they think，speak，and act differently．You will be surprised at how quickly you begin to try some new things and feel more confident．This is a great way to follow some outstanding people and begin opening your mind to new ways of thinking．
Seize the day：There are opportunities that happen around us daily．Take notes on how many times you would really love to do something，but for some reason you find yourself saying no．Many times we say no because we feel we don't have time or money．Start saying YES to just one or two things you might have originally said no to．
The next time you find yourself feeling stuck in an ordinary life，try out at least one of these simple steps．Just that tiny bit of"extra"goes a long way and before you know it，you'll be expanding your world．

5．The public were shocked in March when the news that improperly stored vaccines （疫苗） worth millions of dollars were sold to patients all over the country．
China is trying to rebuild public confidence in vaccines after the news struck fear into the hearts of parents．
Chief government officials should be dismissed if serious vaccine violations （違規(guī)） took place in their jurisdictions （管轄區(qū)），according to a revised regulation （規(guī)定） approved by the State Council．The regulation was passed on Saturday and took effect immediately，the report said．It strengthens management rules for vaccines，including their transportation and storage，and increases punishments for violators．
The regulation requires B-class （non-compulsory） vaccines to be given out like A-class．It also requires disease control departments，hospitals and clinics to keep records of purchases and received inventory （存貨清單）．China will establish a system to track vaccines，according to the regulation．Companies and user agencies must record use，so all vaccines can be tracked across their life cycle．
China will also raise the amount of compensation paid to those suffering abnormalities （反常） after receiving vaccines．Measures under consideration include the introduction of commercial insurance to improve fairness and efficiency in compensation．Commercial insurance is expected to play an important role in compensating people for any health problems connected with vaccines．In the past，responsibility for compensation belonged to vaccine producers or to the government．
Meanwhile，local authorities are trying to reduce public worries．At Zhcheng hospital，health workers were spreading vaccine information to parents on Monday．In Northeast China's Jilin province，authorities are pioneering a digital system that makes vaccines storage transparent to the public．In Hefei，capital of Eastern Anhui province，authorities have developed a smart phone application that shares vaccine information．
Immunization （免疫） is the most economic，effective and safest way of preventing，controlling and getting rid of communicable diseases，said Mao Qun'an，spokesperson for the National Health and Family Planning Commission．Although vaccines can provide immunization against certain diseases，they can also cause side effects and result in serious physical harm in some individuals because of a person's health condition，although the chances of developing problems are extremely low，according to experts．
Vaccines stand for the primary means in most countries to prevent and control infectious diseases，and parents should get their children vaccinated as required by the government，said Yu Wenzhou，an expert at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention．
China is trying to restore public confidence in vaccines

The （71）shockingnews	The improperly stored vaccines were sold to patients （72）nationwide．
Th e （73）requirements/content（s）of the revised regulation	●Chief government officials will take responsibility if serious vaccine violations （74）occurred/happenedin their jurisdictions． ●B-class vaccines are required to be distributed in the （75）sameway as A-class． ●Purchases of vaccines and received inventory should be （76）recorded． ●A tracking system will be established．
Other measures taken by the government	●（77）Introducecommercial insurance to compensate people for any health problems connected with vaccines． ●Make the vaccine information （78）known/transparentto the public．
The truth about vaccines	●Vaccines cause physical （79）damage/harmto some people because of a person's health condition． ●Vaccines （80）representthe primary means in most countries to prevent and control infectious diseases．

4．The Japanese have always loved fresh fish．But the （41）B close to Japan have not held many fish for decades．So to（42）D the Japanese population，fishing boats got bigger and went a longer way than ever．The （43）A the fishermen went，the longer it took to bring in the fish．If the return trip （44）C more time，the fish were not fresh．
To settle this （45）D，fish companies installed（安裝） freezers on their boats．They would catch the fish and freeze them at sea．Freezers （46）B the boats to go farther and stay longer．
（47）A，the Japanese could taste the difference （48）A the fresh and the frozen fish．And they did not like the taste of the frozen fish．The frozen fish brought a lower （49）C．So，the fishing companies installed fish tanks．They would catch the fish and put them in the tanks，fin to fin．After struggling for some time，they stopped moving and became （50）D and dull．Days later，they lost their fresh-fish taste．The fishing industry （51）Aa coming economic crisis!
But today，they get fresh-tasting fish to Japan．How did they（52）C？To keep the fish tasting fresh，the Japanese fishing companies（53）B put the fish in the tanks but with a small shark．The fish are challenged and therefore are constantly on the（54）D．The challenger they face keeps them （55）A and fresh!
