I knocked into a stranger as he walked by me. “Oh, excuse me,” I said. He replied with a smile and said, “Please excuse me too. I wasn’t watching out for you.” We apologized and went our own ways.

Later that day, when I was cooking, my daughter was standing too close to me. When I turned to reach for some milk, I nearly knocked her over.

“Move out of the way!” I shouted.

She walked away sadly. But I didn’t feel like I had to apologize to her.

While I was in bed that evening, my husband said to me, “While dealing with a stranger, you were polite, but with a daughter you love, you were unkind. Your daughter brought you some flowers that she picked herself this afternoon. You’ll find them in the kitchen by the door. Have you seen the tears in her eyes?”

I quietly went and knelt (跪) down by my daughter’s bed.

“Honey, I am so sorry,” I said. “Are these the flowers you picked for me?”

She said, “I found them by the tree. I picked them because they’re pretty like you. I knew you’d like them, especially the blue ones.”

I tearfully replied, “Sweetie, I’m really sorry for the way I acted today. I shouldn’t have shouted at you.”

“It’s okay. I love you anyway,” she said as she kissed me on my cheek.

A lot of people play sports, but very few people become sports professionals (专家). If sports aren’t going to be your future, then why should you play them? Why should you train every day? Why should you work hard and feel sore (酸痛的) the next day? Wouldn’t it be better to forget sports and only pay attention to your lessons? In fact, there are a lot of reasons to play sports.

First of all, sports help you stay in a good condition because they are a great way to exercise. When you exercise, your body makes endorphins (安多芬) which give you more energy and make you feel happier.

Also, sports teach young people how to communicate and work as a team. They teach young people to respect (尊重) their coaches, teammates and players from the other team. Many reports say that sports help young people stay out of trouble. If a young person plays sports, he or she may have fewer problems. This is because sports teach people about rules. They also teach people that if they work hard, they might succeed.

Finally, sports make people leave their houses. These days, a lot of people spend too much time watching television and playing video games. When you play sports, you go outside and exercise in the sun. You take in fresh air. All of these things are important.

Maybe you’re not going to become a sports professional, but that doesn’t matter, sports will help you become a better and happier person.

As Earth’s neighbor, Mars (火星) has a similar environment to Earth. For years, humans are studying the Red Planet and hope to live on it one day. On July 23, 2020, China launched (发射) its first Mars probe (探测器). It is called Tianwen-1. The name comes from the poem Tianwen.

Qu Yuan, a famous poet of the Warring States Period wrote it. The probe landed on the surface (表面) of Mars on May 15, 2021. China is the second country in the world to make it. It was a great success.

A probe has to fly a very long way before landing on Mars, and the lander (着陆器) has to land by itself. “Each step had only one chance. If there was any mistake, the landing would fail.” Geng Yan, an official from the China National Space Administration (CNSA) said.

The Mars probe has three parts—the orbiter, the lander and the rover (火星车). Within a week after the landing, the Mars rover, Zhurong, will begin working. Zhurong is named after the god of fire in ancient Chinese stories. It is the sixth rover on Mars, following five others launched by the United States. If everything goes well, Zhurong will work for at least three months and carry out studies on Mars like taking pictures and videos of Mars, finding out if there is any water or ice under the surface of Mars and checking the temperature or weather on it.

“A larger probe will be launched for the planet sometime around 2030 to take samples and return them to Earth.” a CNSA officials said.

The hardest thing in the world is saying yes to the world. Do you say yes to the world? Most of us are used to saying no to the things we don’t like and yes to the things we like, and yet, everything we face is our life. We won’t say yes to the things we do not like, because we can’t accept them in heart.

When we say yes to the world, we begin to believe that whatever our situation is, we can work with it. We express belief (信念) in ourselves and the world. We also express a willingness to learn from whatever happens to us, and we won’t run or hide when we don’t like what we see. So in one word, saying yes is really good for our life.

The question we might ask ourselves is what it will take to get to the point of saying yes. For some of us, when facing something we can’t run away from or refuse, we cannot say no but have to say yes. For others, they might make a decision to say yes to life no matter what happens to them.

Saying yes to life might be difficult at first, and even painful at times, but if we continue to say yes to life, it will be less difficult in the end. And we will find the joy of being in a positive (积极的) talk to the world with a very strong word “yes”. We should accept everything life puts in front of us.

Title	Say     46     to the world
Attitude (态度) towards life	Most of us have a     47     of saying yes to what we like and saying no to what we don’t like.
The     48     for saying no	We can’t accept what we     49     in heart.
Advantages (优势) of saying yes	We can work with our problem whatever it is. We can believe in     50     and our world. We are     51     to learn from whatever happens to us.
Situations of saying yes	Some people have to say yes     52     of saying no. Other people might     53     to say yes no matter what happens to them.
Conclusion	For us all it will be much     54     to say yes to life if we keep doing so. We will feel     55     when talking to the world with a strong word “yes”. Everything in life should be accepted whether we like it or not.

Hainan Island will no longer sell fuel-driven cars (燃油汽车) by 2030. In fact, new energy vehicles (NEVs新能源汽车) will be encouraged. The island’s government     56     (make) clear these goals in a plan since August, 2022.

The plan hopes to reduce carbon emissions (碳排放) and     57     (develop) new energy across the island. It makes Hainan the     58     (one) province in China to make such an effort. The island has rich renewable (可再生的) energies,     59     (include) wind, wave and solar power.

The island’s natural conditions also make it a great place     60     (use) NEVs. Most of these cars on the market now run on batteries (电池). In winter, low temperatures make the batteries last for     61     (few) hours than normal.     62    , this won’t be a big problem in Hainan. It’s warm on the island all the year. Besides, the island covers a very small area. The     63     (own) of NEVs don’t have to worry about dead batteries.

All of these conditions make     64     possible for the island to carry out its plan.     65     environmental change continues to be a threat (威胁) to our world, such plans will be needed in more places.
