Making friends at school can be a little tricky - but it doesn’t have to be! Try out a few of these methods to talk to people in your class and hang out with them outside of school. Before you know it, you’ll have a group of friends to have fun with every day!

■ Sit at a new table during _________.

Look for tables with an open seat. If you’re feeling a little nervous, pick a table that only has one or two people sitting down. Head over and ask if you can sit there, then join in on the conversation. If you like the people you sit with, ask if you can join them again the next day.

■ Try out for a sports team.

Pick a sport that you like (it could be soccer, basketball, softball, baseball, or anything in between), and try out for the team. Over time, you could become good friends with some of the other people on your team! If your school doesn’t have a sports team, try looking for one at your local community center.

A businessman had two sons. While he gave the younger son a lot of love and g 1 ． , he neglected （忽视） the elder son. It was completely puzzling （令人费解） and no one knew why.

When the boys grew up, they were a 2 ． to manage the father's business. The elder son was serious about the business. From morning till late in the evening, he was busy w 3 ．。 Within a few years, he ran the business very well and e 4 ． expanded （扩大） it.

What about the younger son? He didn't have much to do e 5 ． having a good time. But the father believed that his favorite son would be a success. If the elder son could be a s 6 ． businessman, surely the younger one, with a higher education, would do much better.

A few years later, the results of his decision became clear. Uninterested in business, the younger son continued s 7 ． his time enjoying himself. And he went out of business. But the elder son's far smaller share （份） of business had expanded and he had proved h 8 ． to be a good decision maker.

Ashamed at the turn of events the father met the elder son and was a 9 ． with the younger one. The elder son, who was listening to all this quietly, suddenly said he wanted to s 10 ． up an independent business and live on his own.

“Why?” asked the father: “I blame （责备） one person for the way my brother has turned out, and it's not him. You can't blame children for the faults （过失） of their parents, can you?" asked the elder son.

When we first moved here, we didn’t have a garden. Mike and I talked about making a large vegetable garden somewhere in our yard, but we couldn’t agree on where. Before we went ahead and dug up the grass, we spent some time thinking about where it would work best. At last, we chose an old sandbox （沙坑） in our front yard to become our garden.

We dreamed about a lively garden with lots of vegetables. We asked many people what we should do to turn this sandbox into a space, then plants can grow in it. And they gave us lots of ideas. My sister was the most knowledgeable, so we listened mostly to her. At first, Mike made a wood fence （栅栏） and I painted it with the kids. We chose a darker color because it would fit our light grey house.

Next, Mike dug 17 holes. Then we filled them with soil （土壤） . It was still too cold to plant anything, so for days I just stared out the window at these holes. To me, it looked much too untidy. I advised to fill those holes back and dig new ones. This time we ended up with 10. Much better.

Over the next few weeks, I worked on getting everything planted in my garden. I started by planting green onion. But I was too excited and planted it too early. Right away it was clear that it wasn’t going to survive. I had to give it up and try something else. Then my next door neighbor gave me red roses to put in my garden. A few days later we went to a greenhouse and came back not with green onion but peppers, tomatoes and so on. Clearly the vegetable and flower garden was slowly becoming our dream garden. Oh well!

I love the way it turned out. This garden will always remind me of my sister.

将答案写在答题卡相应的位置上。每空一词。

We students have two days off in a week. But do you know“996”? It means starting work at 9 a.m. and finishing at 9 p.m., six days a week.

The“996”work schedule has recently become a heated topic of discussion online. According to the website, working in a“996”schedule is unhealthy and could cause people to end up in serious illness. This work schedule is common at Chinese tech companies like Baidu,Alibaba and Huawei. Most“996”workers do not receive overtime pay.

Many tech industry workers have complained about this schedule.“I worked‘996’for nine months,”one worker said.“I couldn’t sleep because of the stress. So,I leave my job.”

However, the bosses of some tech companies supported“996”. Jack Ma, founder of Alibaba, said it’s“a huge blessing”for young workers to work“996”.

“If you don’t do‘996’when you’re young, when will you?”Ma said.“If you don’t spend

more time and energy than others, how will you achieve the success you want?”

Many have questioned Ma’s thinking. In an article in People’s Daily, one reporter said, “There is a clear difference between valuing hard work and forcing employees to work overtime.”

A lawyer told China Daily that it is illegal（违法的）to use a“996”work schedule. China’s Labor Law clearly states that employees should not be asked to work more than eight hours a day or 44 hours a week.

Opinions about“996”at work
Meaning	People start work at 9 a.m. and finish at 9 p.m., six days a week.
One opinion from the website	It is bad for people’s 1 and workers do not receive overtime pay.
