For the first time, people who only knew his voice would see his face. But he arrived late. The director was not going to point out the faults of such a famous host, but he wanted to know the reason.

This is a great time to go outside and have fun. Go to a valley to see red maple trees, go and pick fruit in a garden or find an open field to fly your kite in.However, for many junior high school students, these great activities may be just a dream. With plenty of work to do, they spend all their hours indoors, fighting for a high mark in their exams. Of course, study is one of the most important things for teenagers. But life is completely much more than that.Sometimes we spend so much time studying that we forget how to make life wonderful. In doing so, we lose the real purpose of lifeto be a valuable and happy person. To enjoy just how great it is to be alive, we have to put down our books and pens and look around us. Students, take some exercise to improve your health, talk with your parents and friends for understanding and walk around outside to refresh (使恢复精力)your body and mind.Going out and enjoying the beautiful countryside often helps our creativity in our work. Chinese craftsman Lu Ban created a saw (锯子)to help woodworkers. But if he hadn't walked outside, he would not have been inspired by a kind of toothed grass. We could also suppose if Newton hadn't rested under that apple tree, then he wouldn't have been hit by an apple, and his classic theories (理论)would not have come out.Going out is not only a break from hard work, but also a chance to add to life experience. So come on, give your brain a good rest. Step out of the books and get your bag ready for an autumn outing. We are sure you will get much more than knowledge from the exciting journey.23.

We should get a strong feeling of satisfaction towards life.D.Going out can make junior high school students get more.DUS poet Maya Angelou once wrote, “We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit (承认)the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty.”This is especially true when it comes to the main characters of the popular movie Better Days, which came out in China on Oct. 25, 2019.Starring Jackson Yee and Zhou Dongyu, the film follows an excellent student Chen Nian for the national college entrance exam, who meets teenage hooligan (昆7昆)Liu Beishan at a sad situation. Liu was dropped by his parents and stopped attending school at 13. He tries to protect Chen-from school violence (暴力).The two form a strong relationship, and support each other as they grow up in a difficult environment. But before they take the exam, Chen accidentally kills a classmate who bullies (欺凌)her at school and Liu tries to protect her by taking the blame (责 任).一一Talking about why he chose to star in the movie. Yee said that he was interested by the theme of teenage bullying. /zExcept the problem of school violence, the film also reflects on the mental (精神的)growth of youth/ he told Global Times. _Any kind of bullying is painful, but it isn't often realized that many bullies face mental problems of their own either at home or at school and look for ways to take their strong feelings out on others. _Often the easiest targets (目标)are those who seem to be the weakest : the nicest or quietest people. Or they pick on admired people. "'Anything can make you a target/ US high school teacher Jeff Ward told The Daily Universe newspaper.This may be true, but that doesn't mean that the victims have themselves to blame. /zYou did not ask to be bullied/ bullying prevention author Sherri Gordon told Very Well Family website. “The bully made that choice and you aren't responsible for another person's thoughts and actions/7 _For those who are neither bullies nor victims, if you know someone who's being bullied, don't just stand by and let it happen. At the end of the day, knowing what's right doesn't mean much unless you do what's right.27. What does the example like Lui Beishan in the movie suggest?A. A badly-behaved child may still have justice (正义)from the bottom of his heart.B. Parents are more responsible for children's mental growth than schools.C. Laws should be made to protect children who arc dropped by their parents.D. The government should take proper action to protect students from being bullied.28. Where can we put "In other words, bullies are the weak ones, not their victims (受害者)in the passage best?A.B.C.D.29. What does the fifth paragraph mainly talk about?A. School bullying is common.B. Bullies can be weak if you are brave.C. Bullies' victims should be blamed as well.D. We often pay no enough attention to what makes bullies.30.
