“Keep your eyes on your own paper” is one of the rules that Mrs. Archer has taught us. It is a simple rule, but it’s not a rule everybody chooses to ______.

This morning, I had an experience with a “rule breaker” during an English ______. I felt somebody watching me a little too closely. I ______ and saw James, who sat just behind me. He said in a(n) ______ voice, “I hope you study for this test!” I gave him a smile, not sure whether he was joking or not, and returned to my test. This time I leaned (倾身) a little more closely towards my paper. “I can’t ______!” James said.

“What am I going to do?” I thought to myself. Cheating (作弊) went against my beliefs. I ______ my answers with an arm.

“He’s your friend, and what are friends for?”

“You know it’s wrong.”

I wanted an easy way out of this matter. No easy answer came. I just knew I had to do what I thought was ______, even if it made James mad. So I guarded my paper so that he couldn’t see my ______.

When the exam ended, I stood up. “Sorry, James, but you know how I feel about cheating,” I said slowly and softly. “But maybe I could help you ______ before the next test.”

“OK, Brian,” he smiled. “It might not be easy, but I’ll give it a try. I felt ______ that my friendship with James wasn’t destroyed (破坏). Mrs. Archer would be proud.

How funny would it be to see memes (表情包) in our textbooks? Fourteen high school students from Sichuan Province have made this a reality.

They wrote a set of creative textbooks that include five subjects: Chinese, English, Math, Chemistry and Physics. They share their notes and experiences to help students prepare for high school entrance exams (中考). You can see funny memes almost everywhere in their textbooks.

The language they use is not too serious. Each textbook has its own shining points, too. The English textbook introduces movies and TV series. The Chemistry textbook has wuxia characters. There is a boy named Shangguan Huaxue in the book. He meets a girl and they learn Chemistry together.

Yan Zuhuai, 15, a top student at Chengdu No. 7 High School, is the editor-in-chief of the textbooks. He got the idea to create the textbooks in June. “Many students wanted me to share my notes with them. When I saw people sharing bikes, I thought, why not share knowledge as well?” Yan said.

But when he put all of his notes together, he found that they were boring. Realizing that his classmates enjoy online novels and memes, he decided to add these things. He wrote ideas for each textbook and invited 13 students to join him in creating them.

Their first drafts (草稿) came out in August. Students and teachers praised them. But Yan felt the books needed to be improved. The final versions (版本) will come out at the end of December.

About 2,500 people have ordered them. Many publishing houses have showed interest in them.

28. Which of the following is TRUE?

A．The language in the textbooks is very serious.

B．Yan Zuhuai is the editor-in-chief of the textbooks.

C．The Chinese textbook introduces movies and TV series.

D．The Chemistry textbook introduces a girl named Shangguan Huaxue.

29. Which is the correct order about how Yan Zuhuai and his friends completed the textbooks?
①Their first drafts came out.
②The final versions will come out.
③He got the idea to create the textbooks.
④He invited 13 students to join him in creating them.
⑤He put all of his notes together but found they were boring.

A．②①③④⑤

B．④⑤①②③

C．⑤①④②③

D．③⑤④①②

30. The passage is mainly about ________.

A．the reasons for creating memes	B．the subjects that students like best
C．the difficulties in writing textbooks	D．the interesting textbooks with memes

任务型阅读：阅读下面的语篇材料，根据所读内容，完成下列各题。

Parents are the closest people to you in the world. They love you and they would do anything for you. But like many teenagers, Li Mei has a problem. She doesn’t get on well with her parents. “I really want to be my dad’s sweet girl. But my dad just doesn’t understand me,” said Li Mei. Recently, a study has shown that many families had the same problem as Li Mei’s family. They don’t like talking with their parents and hardly feel happy at home. But you and your parents will be much happier if you can talk with each other. Here are some ways to have a good talk with them:

First, make a list of the things you and your parents disagree about most. With each of these things, try to find an answer acceptable to both you and your parents. It is no good for you to require everything to go your way. You have to be ready to change a little if you want them to change.

Second, talk to your parents when it is convenient for them. Remember that your parents may have to work long hours and this can make them tired, so be patient with them.

Third, listen to what your parents have to say. How can you expect them to listen to you if you are not ready to listen to them? Your parents were once young like you, so they understand your situation better than you expect.

Finally, if you do not get a satisfactory result, try not to get too angry. Talk with your parents and find out their reasons. Part of growing up is learning to live with these kinds of disagreements, and learning to understand another person’s way of looking at things.

With a little hard work, you can learn to get on well with your parents.

Li Mei’s problem is that she doesn’t get on well with ________________________.
