Derek didn’t leave the band room as usual after class. As he put his saxophone carefully back, he felt a hand on his shoulder. Mr. Boxwell stood behind him and asked,“Are you excited about Jazz Band (爵士乐队) Camp next week?” Derek was the only student at James Madison Middle School accepted into the best camp. He would be playing in a jazz band with the most talented students in the state.
“Actually, Mr. Boxwell,” Derek said quietly, “I’m really nervous. What if I don’t play well?”
Mr.Boxwell smiled at Derek and said lightly, “You’re the best middle school saxophone player I’ve had the pleasure of teaching. You will blow away the people at camp with your talent. Is there anything else troubling you”
Derek lowered his head. It was easy to admit (承认) that he might not be the best saxophone player at camp, but it was really hard for him to face the fact that he was probably the only 12-year-old boy that had never been to an overnight summer camp. What if he didn’t make any friends? What would the food be like?
Mr. Boxwell looked down into Derek’s eyes.“My first summer camp experience was a music camp when I was your age. For some reason,I had the ideas in my head that I wasn’t going to make any friends and that I was going to miss my mom’s cooking.” He laughed again.“Well, I did miss my mom’s cooking, but I was surprised by how quickly I made friends with the other kids from the band and the orchestra (管弦乐队) kids too.”
Just then, the door opened and in walked Mr.Graham, the orchestra teacher. In fact , Mr. Graham said,“That’s where we met 25 years ago! We’ve been best friends ever since!”
24. What did Mr. Boxwell think of Derek according to the passage?
A. Brave. B. Talented. C. Patient. D. Friendly.
25. Why was Derek afraid to take part in the camp?
A. Because he did not have enough pocket money.
B. Because he did not have proper clothes and shoes.
C. Because he missed mom’s cooking while going out.
D. Because he had never spent a night in a summer camp.
26. How did Mr. Boxwell help Derek?
A. By preparing a tasty meal for Derek himself.
B. By teaching him how to protect himself outside.
C. By sharing his own camp experience with Derek.
D. By inviting other boys to go to the camp with Derek.
C
One recent survey in Britain showed that 50% of parents didn’t pay their children pocket money. And 76% of the parents who didn’t pay pocket money said that their children complained about it. They really wondered whether to give pocket money or not and how to give it wisely if necessary.
As a reporter, I think pocket money is a good way for children to understand the value of money and to get the good habit of making use of money early.
I would very strongly advise that even from a very young age when we’re giving children money for treats, we still say that some should be put aside for things like buying presents at Christmas, or saving up for things they really want. As soon as we start handing over money we should be handing over responsibility.
In fact, there are also some parents who want to use money to have more control over their children. What that probably leads to is arguments between parents and children. Besides, children aren’t learning to make decisions. Therefore, it’s really helpful for children to learn that they need to manage money—they need to decide what to spend it on, whether they should save it, and so on.
One of the messages we should give our children is that things don’t come easily. They do have to practice, and they will get things wrong. The world doesn’t come to an end if they make a wrong decision, and this is why we shouldn’t help them out if they spend their money on the wrong thing.
It’s very hard, but we’re not helping our children grow into a happy person if we teach them that all they have to do is to complain and then they’ll get what they want.
Overall, it’s important for children to understand that their parents have a budget (预算), with money coming in and money going out and it’s only what’s left—if anything that’s affordable for what the family wants, rather than needs.
Think about what we’re saying by giving our children money what we want them to do with it and how we should use it as a learning experience rather than just for treats? In this way, they will realize they can’t have everything they want and money has to be earned. Moreover, they need to learn to manage for the future.
27. What did the survey in Britain show us?
A. The ways to give pocket money to children.
B. The importance of giving money to children.
C. The harm of giving pocket money to children.
D. The situation of giving children pocket money.
28. The writer probably agrees that ______.
A. children should know that pocket money is for treats
B. children need to know how they spend or save money
C. parents control over their children well by controlling their money
D. parents should help children when they spend money on a wrong thing
29. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. Is pocket money a good treat for children?
B. Should children earn their own pocket money?
C. Can managing money improve children’s school work?
D. Does pocket money build up children’s responsibility?
D
Self-esteem is the way we feel about ourselves. It has a great influence on how we make decisions and socialize. Normally, people with low self-esteem easily think low about themselves, so it is very important to understand what causes low self-esteem and how we can get over it.
Because of trust, we sometimes accept the control from other people who tell us what to do. However, we need to understand it may have serious effects, especially when that person has negative behaviors, like being cruel (残忍的), or overly criticizing others. Remember that you cannot change a person quickly, but you must change how you react to their words and behaviors towards you. Always remember that only you have control of your reaction.
Do not just focus on your past unwise choices or feel guilty (内疚的) about them. Everyone makes mistakes. But if you think more, every mistake you made in the past has caused something positive. Making mistakes will open many doors for improvement. If you’re feeling especially guilty about a decision you made, write it down and write beside it every possible positive result that happened to you. This will help you cherish those decisions rather than feel upset about them.
Besides, it is not wrong to dream a big thing. However, there will be some harmful effects on your self-esteem if it is your only goal and you fail to achieve it. Most of the time we set unrealistic goals and not being able to achieve them makes us think that we are not good enough. Therefore, it is a good idea to set a huge goal but remember to set up small milestones that you can achieve along the way.
Last but not least, comparing yourself to other people is so easy to become a bad habit. We think that the picture we see on social media is their whole story, not realizing that it is just their best look. Keep in mind that what you see is not always what it seems. Moreover remember that they worked hard to achieve what you see from them, then learn from them to be a better you.
Hopefully, these tips help you develop your self-esteem. You will not be able to live a joyful life if you let your low self-esteem take over.
30. What should we do if others always tell us what to do?
A. Control our own reaction.
B. Trust and take their advice.
C. Be cruel and criticize them.
D. Try to change them quickly.
31. The word “cherish” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________”.
A. make B. value C. regret D. forget
32. What can we learn from the passage?
A. We’d better try our best to make fewer mistakes.
B. Small goals will lower our self-esteem and cause failure.
C. We shouldn’t believe in the stories on social media blindly.
D. The problem of low self-esteem is more serious than before.
33. The writer wrote this passage to _______.
A. introduce some methods to study self-esteem
B. guide readers to solve the low self-esteem problem
C. lead people to make right decisions by themselves
D. encourage people to face failures bravely in real life

Students Hit High Speeds in Self-Driving Car Race
On October 23 last year, the Indy Autonomous Challenge(IAC) was held. Race cars ran around the track(跑道) at high speeds—with no one driving them.The race took place at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, which is famous for its Indianapolis 500 race. But the Indy Autonomous Challenge(IAC), was quite a bit different from that.
Many big companies are working to develop self-driving cars. These companies have huge teams of highly trained professionals(专业人士). They’ve spent years developing and testing their cars and software. However, that wasn’t true for the nine teams of college students that took part in the IAC.
To keep things fair, each team was given exactly the same kind of car—a Dallara IL-15. It’s a car that’s built like a real race car, but smaller. The teams also got the same tools to help the cars figure out where they were and what was going on.
Instead of a driver, of course, each car had a computer. The challenge was for each team to create a software program that would allow thei
