4 . When I was 5 years old, I lived with my family in my Grandma’s old house. It was very old and not in great shape, but we were happy there. We didn’t have a lot of money, but we grew our own food and made our own clothes. Every day after school, I would play outside and wait for my dad to come home from work. He worked hard all day and would come home tired with oil on his hands and clothes.

When he got home, he would clean up and sit in his old chair while my mom and Grandma were making dinner. I loved climbing onto his back and watching TV together. His hands were rough and strong, and I always felt safe and loved.

Now I am 55 years old and the oldest person in my family. I have wrinkles (皱纹) and some health problems, but I still remember those happy times with my dad. I wish I could go back and sit with him in that old chair one more time, just to tell him how much I love him and thank him for making me feel so happy and loved as a child.

5 . In your spare time, do you help your parents with chores around the house? Can you cook for your family?

In order to stress (强调) the importance of hard-working spirit education (劳动教育) among students of different ages, the government made a guideline (指导方针).

The guideline calls for students to respect labor work. Students should learn life skills and develop good working habits through such education.

The government has been trying to stress the importance of hard-working spirit education. But this has been overlooked (忽视) in recent years. Many teenagers don’t think working hard is important and aren’t interested in doing so. According to a study, only 22% of students help with everyday chores around the house.

“Families and schools play an important role in teaching students about the advantages of working hard,” the guideline says.

As children’s first teachers, parents could encourage children to learn how to do chores at home. Students should learn one or two life skills every year. These skills can include cooking, washing their own clothes, and tidying their rooms.

Schools should provide students with hard-working spirit classes every week, according to the guideline. Schools can also hold activities to give students real-world work experience.

10 . 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的五个选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯，意思完整。

I grew up in the countryside. At around 10 years old, I began to learn to cook.     1     Since my parents often came home late, prepared vegetable pies would help my family have supper sooner. I thought it would be easy because I often saw my mum do it. But it wasn’t like what I thought. It turned out to be a mess for a while. First I made the dough too soft. Then I made it too hard.     2     . Later, I cooked fried dishes and things like dumplings and I fell in love with cooking.     3     More importantly, thanks to my cooking skill, I live a better life. Now I cook every meal instead of ordering takeout. It not only saves money but also keeps us fit.

    4     I got to know how to plant vegetables. Though it was hard work, the experience taught me things that many of my friends still don’t know. I once discussed this with my friends from the city. They thought it was a pity that they didn’t have the chance to learn these things in their lives.

Some might say we can learn these things from textbooks.     5     The experience brings a new way to look at the world.

A．It’s a good way to relax.

B．But as I kept trying, I learned the trick.

C．But it isn’t the same as learning by doing.

D．The first skill I learned was making vegetable pies.

E．Besides cooking, I did a lot of farm work in my childhood.
