任务型读写。
     Think of life as a game in which you are playing with five balls in the air. You name them work, family,
health, friends and spirit (精神) and you keep all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is
a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce (弹跳) back.
     But the other four balls, family, health, friends and spirit, are made of glass. If you drop one of these,
they will be broken. They will never be the same. You must understand that and try to have balance in
your life. How?
     Don"t look down on your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different and
each of us is special.
     Don"t let other people set goals for you. Only know what is best for yourself.
     Don"t give up when you still have something to give. (3)Nothing is really over until the moment you stop
trying.
     Don"t be afraid to fight difficulties. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
     Don"t shut love out of your life by saying it"s impossible. (4) The quickest way to receive love is to give
it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly (紧紧地); the best way to keep love is to give it
wings.
     Don"t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you"ve been, but also where you are going.
     Don"t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless. It"s a treasure (珍宝) you can always carry easily.
     Don"t use time or words carelessly. You can"t get them back.
     Life is not a competition, but a trip, step by step.
     Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery (秘密), and today is a gift: that"s why we call it "the
present".
A)根据短文内容简要回答问题。
1. What ale the five balls of life?
    _______________________.
2. Please say something about knowledge according to the passage·
    _______________________.
B)将短文中画线的两个句子译成汉语.
3. _______________________.
4. _______________________.
C)请给短文拟一个适当的标题.
5. _______________________.

阅读理解       No one is an island. We share the world with parents, friends, teachers and classmates. Most of the
time, we get on well with each other. But we sometimes disagree too.  Here are some tips for solving
problems:

Sharing: Say what is troubling you. If you understand each other it"s easier to solve the problem.

Take turns: Let the other person have his or her own way for a while. Sometimes it works well.

Flip (抛) a coin: If you both agree, sometimes chance is the best idea. You could flip a coin, or
play "rock, paper, scissors" (石头剪子布). It"s fair and neither of you has anything to complain about.

Take a step backward: Fighting doesn"t help in most arguments. You need to calm down. You
can suggest the other person do the same thing. It"s always best to try to work together.

Get help: If you have tried everything and you"re still not able to agree, ask a parent or a teacher.
