【推荐2】I am Lucy. One day I sat under the tree. Things weren’t going well in my life, and I felt upset and disappointed(失望的). Then a little boy walked to me. He stood before me and said with great excitement, “Look what I found!”
In his hand was a flower. I tried to be polite. I smiled and waited for him to leave. However, instead of going away, the boy sat next to me, placing the flower in front of his nose and said, “It smells sweet and it’s beautiful, too. That’s why I picked it. And it’s for you.”
I knew I must take it, or he might never leave. So I reached for the flower and replied, “It’s just what I need.” But he didn’t put the flower in my hand. He held it in the midair(半空中). It was then that I noticed that there was something wrong with the boy’s eyes.
I heard my voice quiver(颤抖) as I thanked him. “You’re welcome,” he smiled and said. Then he ran off to play. He had no idea how much difference he had made to me.
I sat there and wondered how he managed to see a sad woman under the tree. Perhaps from his heart, he had been blessed（保佑）with true sight. I realized that there were so many beautiful things around me and I had never seen them.
From then on, I decided to try my best to discover and enjoy the beauty in my life.

【推荐2】This summer holiday, some of you might have spent a lot of time playing video games online. However, you won’t be able to do this anymore. On August 30th, 2021, the government cut online gaming time for minors（未成年人）to avoid gaming addiction（沉迷）.
A new notice says that game companies can only offer one hour of service to minors from 8 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and holidays. The companies must also make sure that users register（注册）and log in（登录）with their real names. Under earlier rules, minors could play online games for 1.5 hours on any day and three hours a day on holidays. But many parents have called for even stricter rules.
When the rules come out, some people support them, while others are surprised at how strict the rules are. Some people think that teenagers can hardly control themselves, so there should be some rules to guide them. Others also show their worries that if kids use their parents’ logins, what should we do?
Teenagers are the future of a country. Protecting their physical and mental health is important. Parents and schools need to let them know more about the related（相关的）laws and rules.

Their parents say, “Our children are very good. They like pop music and they play it in their own rooms. They help us in the house. You know they feel bored sometimes because there’s nothing interesting in the neighbourhood, no clubs, and no sports.”
A teacher says that he believes most young people are very kind. He thinks that it’s not bad for young people to like loud music because it can give them lots of energy and makes them feel excited. Also, a lot of young people work very hard at school, and they can get good jobs later.
Lewis, a sixteen-year-old boy said, “I have passed all my examinations but I can’t get a part- time job because older people always think I’ m lazy.”
In my opinion, a lot of teenagers are very kind. They belong to community(社区) work groups. They help old people, and they also volunteer in local hospitals or primary schools to help look after patients and younger students.
