Suddenly I heard a sweet 16 .“Mom,let's run through the rain,”a girl said.“No,my dear,we'll wait until it stops.It's raining so 17 ,”her mother answered.The girl 18 for about one minute and said again,“Mom,let's run through the rain.”
“We'll get wet if we do,”the mother said.“No,we won't.That's not 19 you said this morning,”the young girl said.
“This morning?When did I say we could run through the rain and not get wet?”
“Don't you 20 ?When you were talking to Daddy about his cancer,you said to Daddy,‘If God can get us through this,he can get us through 21 !’”
Everyone became 22 .We couldn't hear anything but the rain.The mother thought for a moment and then said,“Honey,you're right.Let's run through the rain.If God lets us get wet,well maybe we just need to take a shower.”
We all stood watching and 23 as they ran through the rain.They held their shopping bags over their heads.Yes,they got wet,but they were followed by many adults who laughed like children all the way to 24 cars.I believe that somewhere down the road in life,the mother will remember this moment and she will smile.
People can take away your money and time can take away your health.However,no one can ever take away your 25 .So take the time to run through the rain.

A
I never saw my father home from work late or ill,nor did I ever see my father take a “night out with the boys”.He had no hobbies but just took care of his family.
For 22 years,since I left home for college,my father called me every Sunday at 9:00 am.He was always interested in my life—how my family was doing.The calls even came when he and my mother were in Australia,England or Florida.
Nine years ago when I bought my first house,my father,67 years old,spent eight hours a day for three days,painting my house.He would not allow me to pay someone to have it done.All he asked was a glass of iced tea,and that I held a paintbrush for him and talked to him.But I was too busy,for I had a law practice to run,and I could not take the time to hold the paintbrush,or talk to my father.
Five years ago,my 71-year-old father spent five hours putting together a swing set(秋千)for my daughter.Again,all he asked was that I got him a glass of iced tea,and talked to him.But again,I had laundry to do,and the house to clean.
The morning on Sunday,January 16,1996,my father telephoned me as usual.This time he seemed to have forgotten some things we had discussed the week before.I had to get to church,and I cut the conversation short.
The call came at 4:40 am.That day my father was sent to hospital in Florida.I got on a plane immediately,and I vowed(发誓)that when I arrived,I would make up for the lost time,and have a nice long talk with him and really get to know him.
I arrived in Florida at 1:00 am,but my father had passed away at 9:12 pm.This time it was he who did not have time to talk,or time to wait for me.
In the years since his death I have learnt much about my father,and even more about myself.As a father,he never asked me for anything but my time.Now he has all my attention,every single day.
26.We know from the reading that the father .
A.liked to paint houses
B.had no friends around him
C.was not healthy in his youth
D.thought of his family as his all
27.When her father painted her first house,the daughter .
A.could only afford a glass of iced tea

B.was too busy to talk to her father
C.could do nothing but hold a paintbrush
D.spent eight hours a day working with her father

A.seemed to be a little different
B.had no time to phone her as usual
C.became interested in church
D.had forgotten to discuss some things with her
29.In the reading the underlined phrase “get to know him” most probably means .
A.get him to know her B.know more about him
C.get him to know himself D.make him well-known
30.Which is the best title of the reading?
A.Painting Houses B.Daughter's Family
C.Father and I D.Father's Phone Calls

In the morning,we went camping along a path in Green Natural Park.We were happy because it was a sunny day.We were expecting an enjoyable two-day holiday.On the way,we kept singing and making jokes.
However,in the afternoon,when we finished our picnic at one o'clock,it was dark and windy.Soon,there was a shower.Unluckily,none of us brought an umbrella.We ran about but we could find no place to hide in.
Twenty minutes passed and it was still raining.There were hours to go before we reached the campsite(野营地).It was even worse that our small compass(指南针)showed that we went to the wrong way.We had lost our way!
We had to make a quick decision as it was raining heavily.Chris said we should set up a tent to hide in,so Mary and Tom helped to set up a tent.Chris and I tried to make a fire to keep us warm.But we were unable to light the fire,as everything was wet.We dried ourselves,chatted and waited inside the tent.At about five o'clock,it stopped raining.We decided to give up the camping trip because all of us had been very tired.
This camping trip may not be very successful but we know each other better.And the most important thing I've learned from this trip is the importance of team spirit.

Are you a happy person most of the time?Or do you easily get angry sometimes?Everyone has a different temperament(脾气).It is usually believed that both genes(基因)and environment may affect people's temperaments in different ways.But now scientists have found that the season of birth also plays a role.
Scientists from Budapest,Hungary,studied 400 university students.In the study,the students needed to finish a questionnaire(问卷).The purpose of it was to find out which of four kinds of temperaments they most had.From the questionnaire,scientists found that the students always answered something like“my mood often changes for no reason”and“I love to deal with new projects,even if it is risky”.These answers were then matched with their birthdays.
They discovered that people born in summer easily change between sad and happy moods compared to people born in winter.Those who always feel positive are mostly born in spring and summer.
The study also found that those born in autumn less probable had a mood of depression which may easily drive them to cry,while those born in winter were not easier to be angry.
Scientists said that this was probably because the seasons had an influence on certain chemicals in the human body.And the chemicals are important to control people's moods even in adult life.
“It seems that when you are born may increase or decrease your chance of developing certain mood disorders(紊乱),”lead scientist Xenia Gonda told The Telegraph.
36.What probably can't affect people's temperaments according to Paragraph 1?
A.Genes. B.Ages.

C.Surprise. D.Excitement.

39.What will the writer most probably write about on“ ”?
A.How many kinds of moods there are.
B.What can change the human body most.
C.How the certain chemicals affect the moods.
D.Whether the students will continue their study.

Did you know the word “emoji”comes from Japanese?It means“picture character”.And it was just added to Oxford dictionaries in 2013.
When you feel happy,you use a smiling face.When you agree,you send a thumbs-up.We have never used emojis while sending messages to our friends as much as we do today.That might be why Oxford dictionaries chose the“face with tears of joy”emoji as their“Word of the Year 2015”.
“Emojis are no longer just for texting teenagers.Instead,they have been made into a form of expression which can cross language barriers(障碍),”Oxford dictionaries said.“Emoji culture has become so popular that characters have their own trends and stories.”
The“face with tears of joy”was the world's most used emoji in 2015, according to a research from the Oxford University Press.
Japan made emojis in the 1990s.They have become increasingly popular through the years.Every day, about 6 billion emoji pictures are flying around the world through mobile messaging apps.Young people especially love it. 72 percent of 18-to 25-year-olds find it easier to express their feelings with an emoji than through the written words,according to a survey by TalkTalk,a London based mobile phone company.
Not everyone thinks emojis are a good thing.Writer Jonathan,for example,says emojis will reduce people's language skills.He thinks people will get lazier by using more emojis.But Professor Evans disagrees.He thinks that emojis are great for communication.“It is not lazy to naturally look for more efficient(有效的)ways to communicate with others,”he said.
What do you think?

Everyone may have the exam stress.A little bit of stress can be a good thing to us.If we have proper stress,we can think actively and work harder.Besides,it can remind us to review our lessons in time to remember them.So we can pass the exams easily.
However,if we have too much stress,we can't sleep well at night and we may feel too tired.We may fear the exams too much and fail in the end.
In my opinion,to deal with stress,we'd better plan and prepare well.We should also form some good habits,such as enough exercise and healthy diets.Then we'll feel relaxed and do well in the exams.
