【题目】短文改错
When I was young, I was terribly poor in the Chinese. Being afraid of express myself was one of the reason why I rarely did well in school. Once I failed in a mid-term exam. When I got the papers, I realized things could have been better if I listened to the teacher much more attentive. So I turned to my teacher for help and he told me “Where there is a will, there is a way. If we are devoted to learning Chinese, you’ll make it.” I couldn’t agree much. From then on, I began to work harder. Out of my expect, I made great progress soon. Today, Chinese is which my strength lies. And I’m grateful for my Chinese teacher.

【题目】 While enjoying good incomes, physicians suffer from a lack of time. Between scheduled clinical work and being on call, it’s common to have only one full day off in seven. Not surprisingly, it’s far too easy to spend that entire day just trying to do the boring tasks for yourself and your family.
The good news, however, is that new research published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences suggests that many professionals can increase their happiness by using their incomes to buy back some of that lost time through the use of time-saving services such as housecleaners or online personal assistants.
Study authors Ashley Whillans and Elizabeth Dunn found that when people spend money on such services, happiness improves. Their findings suggest that “using money to buy time may provide benefits by serving as a buffer（缓冲器）against the harmful effects of time pressure on overall life satisfaction”.
Spending money on a big purchase, such as an expensive car, can feel good and serve as a reward for having worked so hard. Research has consistently shown, however, that the gains from such material purchases are short lived. Instead, buying back time and then using it to go after meaningful activities is more likely to result in long-term gains in well-being.
There are the obvious tasks that have been outsourced（外包）for decades，such as house cleaning or meal preparation. In my own physician coaching practice, it amazes me how many of my physician clients do not take full advantage of these classic opportunities to save time, particularly meal services. When your time is worth well over $100 to 200 an hour, how could you NOT pay another person far less than that to do the job better than you would do it yourself?
Regaining a couple of hours on your only day off can change your well-being. How different would you feel if you had a few more hours to spend quality time with other people, improve your health, or try a new hobby?
【1】Which of the following is true according to this passage?
A.Physicians often do boring tasks for their family.
B.Time pressure often has effects on life satisfaction.
C.Physician clients never use time-saving services.
D.People all should regain time to change their well-being.
【2】What will lead to long-term gains in well-being?
A.Meal preparation.B.Earning high incomes.
C.Buying expensive materials.D.Spending quality time with family.
【3】What is the author?
A.A physician coach.B.A salesman.
C.A researcher.D.A reporter.
【4】What’s the author’s purpose of writing the passage?
A.To persuade people to spend money wisely.
B.To introduce some ways to gain happiness.
C.To advise physicians to buy time for happiness.
D.To state physicians’ terrible working environment.

【题目】 Sadly, bullying is really common. In a study of young people in the UK aged 12-20, half of them said they had been bullied.【1】They might lose interest in the activities they enjoy, avoid spending time with other people and not go to classes or school.
【2】Bullying can also be with words-saying or writing things that are not nice. Another type of bullying is social-embarrassing someone or telling other people not to be friends with them. Bullying involves an imbalance of power. Maybe one person has private information or is more popular, or maybe they are physically bigger and stronger.
Bullying usually involves more people than you think.【3】Sometimes other people help the bully or join in. Then there are the kids that support-they support the bullying by being an audience. They laugh or encourage the children who are bullying in other ways. Some children see what is happening and want to help. Others may comfort and defend the person being bullied.
Does your school do anything to prevent bullying? Why don’t you create a student anti-bullying group? This group can do many things. Let the head teacher know how well the school is doing with fighting bullying and give them advice.【4】Make posters and displays or take over the school’s social media for a week to send out anti-bullying messages.
Bullying is a social problem and it needs a solution from society. The next time you see someone being cruel to someone else, take a stand! Don’t laugh or ignore what’s happening-tell an adult as soon as possible and help everyone to realize that bullying is not OK.【5】
A.Choose an anti-bullying slogan for your school.
B.There are the people who bully and those who are bullied.
C.Bullying is not just physical, like hitting or kicking someone.
