As the proverb says, \have power to finally cause things to happen, even life or death.
We may all experience the power of words in our life, even when we were very young. A child is blamed （责备） by teachers or parents, and after that, he might probably think of himself as a bad child. Most kids have that experience. They say it is important to praise children four times for each negative （负面的） word. Blaming will make things worse, while positive words are helpful especially when being in trouble or in need. When we fail the exam, encouraging words from our teachers or parents make us work harder at our lessons.
Encouraging words can go quite a long way. They lift people up. For example, encouraging words to someone who is sad can help them make it through the day. Words can have a powerful effect on your brain. And it will in turn （相应地） have a great influence on your action. Everything you do depends on what you choose to do. It's not your parents, your past relationships or your job, but you and only you that are responsible for every goal you set. If you have dreams in life, write them down and speak them out. Your words are likely to bring you out something amazing.

7．阅读下面短文，简略回答所提出的问题。
Once upon a time, there was a king. He only had one leg and one eye, but he was very smart and kind. Everyone lived a happy and healthy life because of the king. One day, the king was walking through the palace hallway and saw the paintings of his ancestors（祖先）.He thought that one day his children would also walk in the same hallway and remember all the ancestors through these paintings. He wanted his children to remember him, too. So he invited many
famous artists to his palace.
All of the artists began to think about the king's physical disabilities（生理缺陷）. How could his painting be made very beautiful? It was not possible. They weren't sure what his painting would be like. So one by one, they all started to politely refuse to make a painting of the king. But suddenly one artist raised his hand and said he would make a very nice painting of the king. The king became happy hearing that. Then the artist started painting. After a long time, the painting was ready.
When the artist showed the painting, everyone was shocked. In the painting, the king was sitting on a horse, on the one—leg side, holding his bow （弓箭） and aiming （瞄准） something with his one eye closed. The king was very happy and gave him lots of money. As we all know, no one is perfect. So we should try to focus on （关注） others' advantages instead of their disadvantages. Just take an optimistic view （乐观的观点） of the event. Everyone can do a good job.

'USA? Britain? Which country is better to study in?' We often hear such discussions. As China opens its door, it is a dream for many Chinese students to study abroad. They want to learn about the outside world.
It's true that studying abroad can help students develop themselves. Their foreign language skills will be improved and it may be easier to find jobs.

We know that there are many famous people who have achieved success through their hard work in China. Liu Xiang is a good example. Once an American teacher invited him there, but he
refused. He kept training hard with his Chinese teacher. He surprised the world when he won a gold medal at the Athens Olympic Games. So when you wonder which country is better to study in, think again.

9．根据短文内容，回答下列问题。
Every year, during Chongyang Festival, citizens of China show their respect to the elders in their families and communities. It's a special tradition which is rooted in the deep value that Chinese culture places on honouring their elders.
Sadly, many of our aging population are seniors without sons, daughters or grandchildren to visit. While they may have great friends, they no doubt miss the tender and loving relationships unique to families. To fill this void（空虚）,many volunteers turned up at nursing homes around the country in order to spend time with the residents（居民）. In some cases, they performed humble（谦逊的） gestures（表示） of kindness, such as combing their hair or washing their feet.
While the kind acts were appreciated, one embarrassing story out of Anhui Province raised a valuable question. Reportedly, one old gentleman had his feet washed seven times during the day by different volunteers. Is this genuinely（真诚地） caring for the elderly? Many of the residents at the nursing home said that those gestures do not make them feel cared for at all. Their family members or community volunteers may drop by for a few hours of token（象征性） time, but soon they disappear back into their busy lives.
There is nothing we can give that is more valuable or appreciated than our time. While you may feel like there is barely enough time to care for your many responsibilities, might it be possible to spare just a moment as you walk home from school to sit with a senior who lives in your community? Just five minutes is not going to prevent you from getting your homework done, but it may totally change a day of loneliness into a day of joy for one old man or woman. Do you live far from your grandparents? Why not pick up the phone and let them know you're thinking of them? Or maybe you could remind them of the \and mail them a short letter. Imagine their surprise and joy!
We live in a complicated（复杂的） and busy world, but kindness and caring is still a very simple thing.
（1）How many times did one old gentleman have his feet washed during the day? （不超过2个词）
（2）Which gesture can make the elders feel cared for? （不超过8个词）
（3）What may the family members of the residents at the nursing home do? （不超过13个词）
【答案】 （1）7 times.
（2）To sit with them and talk to them.
（3）Their family members may drop by for a few hours of token time.
【解析】【分析】主要讲了中国的重阳节是展示对老人尊敬的日子，但是现在空巢老人仅仅在志愿者的陪伴下，自己的家人因为忙碌很少陪伴他们。
（1）根据Reportedly, one old gentleman had his feet washed seven times during the day by different volunteers.可知一个老人的脚由不同的志愿者洗了7次，故填7 times.。
（2）根据might it be possible to spare just a moment as you walk home from school to sit with a senior who lives in your community? Why not pick up the phone and let them know you're thinking of them?可知坐下来和他们聊天，故填To sit with them and talk to them.。 （3）根据Their family members or community volunteers may drop by for a few hours of token（象征性） time，可知交通成员可能象征性的拜访几个小时，故填Their family members may drop by for a few hours of token time.。
