Would you like to improve yourself? Would you like to be a better person? Good news! Here we've got some tips for you.
Tip 1Be Kind
Remember to be kind to yourself. You can do simple things to take care of yourself, like getting enough sleep to make yourself energetic. If you don't do like that, you will not bring anything good to anyone else. When you decide to show more kindness to yourself and to others, life changes quickly in a better way.
Tip 2Be Encouraging
It's amazing what a kind word or touch can do. When I was a kid, I went to a lot of schools. It always made me scared, and I was very nervous and unsure of myself. One time, a teacher touched my head and said, smiling, "Don't worry﹣you'll have a good time with us in this classroom." I still remember my teacher's words.
All of us may come across some trouble in our life, and a bit of encouragement can be remembered for years.
Tip 3
When my sister and I were kids, my mum didn't have a car and our school was a 30﹣minute walk. Our neighbor offered to drive us to school when she dropped her son off, and that saved my mother a lot of time. Giving help to others can bring you happiness.
When thinking about how to become a better person, remember that small changes are also important. But "be kind to yourself" comes first. As the old saying goes, "You can't pour from an empty cup." So in order to be a person who can give more love to this world, you have to fall in love with yourself first.
【1】The underlined word "It" in Tip 2refers to (指代) .
A. going to a lot of schools
B. getting along with classmates
C. talking with the teacher
D. staying in the classroom
【2】What can be the best title for Tip 3?
A. Be Helpful
B. Be Polite
C. Be Outgoing
D. Be Honest
【3】The sentence "You can't pour from an empty cup." in the last paragraph means " ."
A. To encourage others, smile to them often
B. To become a better person, start with small changes
C. To give more love to the world, be kind to yourself first
D. To make friends with neighbors, drive their kids to school

Have you heard of “Hollywood Smile”? It gets its name because American movie stars are so proud to show off their beautiful teeth.
However, the British, have a reputation ( 名 声 ) for bad teeth. May 14th is National Smile Month in the UK. The Oral Health Foundation hopes that it will make people think about the importance of brushing their teeth regularly, cutting down on sweet foods, and going to see the dentist often.
It’s said that the British have the practice “stiff upper lip ( 保持上嘴唇不动)” so that they don’t often show their feelings. They neither smile nor cry. Smiling is sometimes banned under some circumstances since 2005. For example, the British haven’t allowed smiling when taking passport photographs. Another example, at work and school, you simply smile when it’s natural to smile.
What about smiling in the UK in general? Do British people smile a lot, or do they look sad all the time? Of course it is not true. When to smile all depends on the situation. For example, you wouldn’t expect anyone to smile at a funeral (葬礼). But if you are at a party of any kind, you’ll find everyone smiling from ear to ear.
Smiling is good for you, no doubt about it, even if you do have a few bad teeth. And smiling is good for those around you too. As a famous writer wrote, “A good smile, a kind word, a good-natural smile can work wonders and miracles (奇迹).”
【1】The Oral Health Foundation expects the British to do EXCEPT _______ .
A.brush teeth regularly B.see the dentist often
C.pull out the bad teeth D.cut down on sweet food
【2】What’s the meaning of the underlined word “circumstances” in Paragraph 3?
A.places B.photos C.conditions D.times
【3】From this passage, we can know that ______ .
A.smile or not depends on different situations
B.British people used to protect their teeth well
C.smiling is good for those who have bad teeth around you
D.the British have seldom allowed smiling in passport photos

Many people dream of travelling into outer space. However, spending too much time in space may cause health problems, according to NASA. That’s why astronauts shouldn’t spend more than six months on the International Space Station(ISS) at a time.
Muscle(肌肉) and boneless
In a weightless environment, astronauts don’t need to use their muscles to support themselves. Therefore, their muscles start shrinking(萎缩). To keep their muscles strong, astronauts need to exercise about 2 hours each day on the ISS. The weightless environment also causes astronauts bones to lose minerals, with density( 密 度 ) dropping at over 1 percent per month. The rate of bone loss for elderly people on Earth is 1 to 1.5 percent per year.
Sleep disorder(混乱)
In space, the Sun rises every 90 minutes. It is hard for astronauts to get used to this light-dark cycle when they sleep. Also, they need to sleep in a sleeping bag that is fixed to a wall, which is uncomfortable. Astronauts now have individual sleeping pods(分离仓) that help shut out some of the light. Still, studies have found that most astronauts only sleep about six hours each night, even though they should have eight and a half hours.
Brain changes
Scientists have found that the position of the brain changes during spaceflight. It shifts upward within the skull( 头 骨 ). This can affect how the brain deals with how we see, stay balanced and move around.
That’s why some astronauts can’t control their movement and balance after returning to the earth. Scientists have also found that astronauts may get used to this change after going on more spaceflights. But they still need to do more research.
【1】Astronauts suffer muscle problems after returning to the earth because ______ .
A.they are too busy to exercise in space B.they don’t have enough room to exercise in space
C.they don’t use their muscles in space D.they rarely walk while in space
【2】Astronauts sleep in individual sleeping pods to ______ .
A.shut out light B.stay warm at night
C.enjoy a quiet atmosphere D.prevent themselves from floating around
【3】How can astronauts deal with the problem of losing their balance?
A.They can walk upside-down on the earth. B.They can go on more spaceflights.
C.They can take some medicine. D.They can sleep more and rest.
【4】What’s the best title for this passage: _______ .
A.Dream of travelling into space B.Health problems in space
C.Muscle and bone loss in space D.Astronauts in space

People in developed countries usually get their drinking water from a faucet(水龙头) or a bottle. But finding safe drinking water can be rather d【1】 in developing countries. People in India, for example, often drink polluted water, which can lead to illness or even d【2】 . But one Indian company, Sarvajal, has i【3】 a great machine: the “water ATM”. Sarvajal’s water filtering(水过滤) network has already p【4】 clean water in more than 130 places. Many of these places are small v【5】 . The water ATM is new and important part of Sarvajal’s business.
How do these water ATMs w【6】 ? First, local workers filter water using Sarvajal’s equipment(设备). Then workers s【7】 the clean water to the ATMS and sell prepaid(预付款) cards to local people. Then they can e【8】 get water from the ATMs with the cards.
Thanks to Sarvajal’s network and water ATMs, c【9】 water is now available to over 70,000 people in India. It makes sense that in one of the local l【10】 Sarvajal means “water for all”.

The following are some tips for becoming a successful businessman by Michael Bloomberg. They are based on his experience of building a company from the ground up, leading New York City as mayor(市长), and so on.
Take Risks
Life is too short to spend your time avoiding failure.
In 1981, at the age of 39, I lost my job. The next day I took a big risk and began my own company. In 2001, when I was debating whether to run for mayor, most people advised me not to do it. But one person said, “If you can imagine yourself giving a concession(败选)speech, then why not go for it?” That was the best advice I received, and I followed it.
In order to succeed, you must first be willing to fail— and you must have the courage to go for it anyway.
Make your own luck
Luck plays a part in success. The harder you work, the luckier you get.
Whatever you choose to do, even if it’s not the job of your dreams, always work hard at it. Be the first person at work in the morning and the last to leave at night. Hard work creates chances.
Never stop learning
The most powerful word in English language is “why”. There is nothing so powerful
as an open, inquiring mind(探究精神). Whatever field you choose for starting a business — be a lifelong student.
Give back
You are responsible for your success and failure, but you only succeed if you share the reward with others.
My first donation was a $ 5 check to my alma mater (母校) . And while the checks(支票)may be bigger today, they come with the same spirit.
You don’t have to be wealthy to give back. You can give back by giving your time and talents.

In 2015, US actress Brie Larson took home the Academy Award for Best Actress for her role in the movie Room. These days, the 29-year-old is standing her ground as a superhero.
Larson plays Carol Danvers, also known as Captain Marvel, in the movie of the same name. As a superhero, she has many superpowers, such as being able to fly as fast as light. The movie has become a huge success.
When Larson was offered the role, she didn’t accept it at the beginning. ‘I am not a person with much confidence. So, I needed a little bit of time to see if I can do it…’ she said. Larson is no stranger to Hollywood, but it’s one thing to win an Oscar and another thing totally to star in a Marvel movie. She had no idea about playing a superhero. There would be lots of promotional (推广) interviews. Facing all of these, she decided to go out of comfort zone (舒适区). ‘I was gonna push myself to do things that I never thought I could do. I challenged myself. ’ she said.
Larson trained for nine months. She learned kungfu, practiced weightlifting and so on. But the biggest challenge was that she had to work with a cat – an animal that she was afraid of. ‘I was sick the whole time, but I insisted to work with it by myself. I was fine.’
Varity magazine spoke highly of her acting. By playing Captain Marvel, Larson discovered her own weaknesses and turned them into confidence. Even just watching her recent interviews, one can tell from her body language that she had found something she didn’t have much before.
