“What’s the matter, Bob?” asks Mrs. White, “Why do you look so sad?”

“Mum, I wish we can stay in New York. I have many friends there .We are new here, and I have no friend now.” Bob says.

“You will soon make friends here,” says Mrs. White, “Wait and see!” At this time, someone is knocking at the door. Mrs. White opens it .A woman with a nice smile stands there.

“Hello,” she says, “I’m Mrs. Green, I live next door.” “Come in, please,” says Mrs. White, “Bob and I are so glad to see you. Do you want any help?” “Yes, I come here to ask for two eggs,” says Mrs. Green, “I want to make a cake.”   “You may have the eggs,” says Mrs. White, “but please sit down. Let’s have coffee and talk a little, OK?”

In the afternoon, someone knocks at the door again. Mrs. White opens it. There stands a boy with a nice smile.

“My name is Tom,” he says, “Mother gives you this cake and these two eggs.”

“Well, thank you, Tom.” Says Mrs. White, “Come in and meet my son, Bob.” The two boys are about the same age.

“Let’s play football, OK?” says Bob, “I have a little dog. It will play with us. ” Tom finds it fun to play football. Soon they have great fun playing football.

“I’m glad you live next door,” says Bob, “Now I have someone to play together.” “I’m glad your mother wants two eggs,” says Bob.

“She doesn’t really want the eggs,” Tom laughs, “She just wants to make friends with your mother!”

Then Bob laughs, too. “That’s a funny way to make friends,” he says, “but it’s a nice way.”

Are you short-sighted? If you are, your parents might have tried to do something to fix it, such as having you get an eye massage(按摩), take medicine or even get surgery(手术). People who offer these services or products often say that they can reduce or even cure short sight.

However, you will no longer see advertisements like this before long. The government has issued a notice to ban(禁止) businesses from using words like “recovery" or "short sight cure" in their advertisements.

The notice says that short sight cannot be completely cured with current medical technology. Therefore, these advertisements could mislead children and their parents.

Young people can prevent and control short sight by spending more time outside and less time in front of books or computers. People who have sight problems should first go to a hospital and let a doctor decide what to do.

More than 450 million Chinese have suffered from short sight since June 2018. Short sight rates are around 30 percent for primary school students, 60 percent for junior high school students and 80 percent for senior high school students. This is likely because students spend a lot of time reading books and using electronic devices.

To reduce short sight among young people, the government made a new plan last August. The plan is designed to limit the amount of time children spend playing video games, as well as limit the production of new video games.

Wu Yue, a 14-year-old student at a Junior High School in Hangzhou, usually has lunch with his classmates in their dining hall. But one day, a newcomer, the school headmaster, joined them at the same table. They talked about the food that the dining hall offered and had a nice chat.

Wu is not alone. Many students across China have the chance to eat with their headmasters. The government issued a notice on food safety and nutrition (营养) management in schools, asking headmasters from kindergarten to high school to have meals with students. The rule took effect(生效) on April 1st.

Some headmasters regard these mealtime conversations as their main chance to communicate with students. And they notice that some students prefer meat to vegetables. “We are thinking about how to improve the dining hall's dishes and provide students with a healthy diet," one headmaster said. As students become more familiar with the school managers, they begin to express their own points of view.

"It's important to understand students' requirements. Our practice shows the school's sense of responsibility," another headmaster said.

A rich woman has a valuable and beautiful vase (花瓶) and she is very    61    of it.

She decides to paint her bedroom the     62    color as the vase. Several painters try to mix the color right, but    63    comes close enough to satisfy the woman. Finally, a painter named Peter comes along. He appears confident, saying he can definitely mix the right color. And he succeeds. The woman is    64            with the result and Peter, the painter becomes very famous.

Many years later, Peter retires and turns    65    business over to his son. “Dad,” asks the son. “There’s one thing I’ve been very curious about. How did you get those walls to match the vase so perfectly?” “Easy my son,” Peter the painter answers. “I painted the vase!”

The morning sun came out as Carlos and his dad began to work. With strong little arms, Carlos handed his dad baskets of pears and helped carry them onto the back of the truck. After all the pears       66     into the truck, Carlos and his dad set off down the road. They set up the tent and table to sell pears, with a big sign “Pears For Sale” hanging in front. They were waiting for customers, but no one stopped       67     any.

Later that afternoon, they packed the unsold pears. “If we don’t sell these soon, they will get too soft.” said his dad.

Too soft? thought Carlos. “Dad, I     68     mom to help me.”

The next morning, Carlos and his mom made some pear jam and filled several small bottles. He painted a new sign, “Taste for Free.” They had customers all day long. Later that afternoon, they began to pack up the empty table. “Dad, I can’t believe we     69     all of the pears out.” said Carlos happily.

“Not all, boy.” laughed his dad. “I       70     one for you just now.”

As school kids, we have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, such as winning the Nobel Prize.         81    You may just want to become one of the ten best students in your class.

Once you have found a dream, what do you do with it? Have you ever tried to achieve your dream? Follow Your Heart by Australian writer Andrew Matthews tells us that realizing our dreams is life's biggest challenge.

You may think you're not very good at some school subjects, or that it is impossible for you to become a writer.     82     In fact, everyone can realize their dream. The first thing you must do is remember what your dream is.

    83    Keep telling yourself what you want, and you will realize your dream faster. Do this step by step. A dream cannot be realized in one day. A big dream is, in fact, many small dreams.

You must also never give up on your dream. There will be difficulties on the road to realizing it. But the biggest difficulty comes from yourself.     84    Studying instead of watching TV will lead to better exam results, while saving five yuan instead of buying an ice cream means you can buy a new book.

    85     But it is OK as long as you have the chance to learn more skills and find new interests.
