When I was a tiny baby crying all night, my mom sang to me and stayed by my side.
When I was tired and hungry, she gave me food and warm arms to sleep in.
When I was two running through the field, she made sure I was safe and kept me from danger.
When I fell and hurt myself, she gave me a hug and lifted me up.
When I was seven coughing badly, she said no ice-cream for me.
But I talked back loudly, “I should be allowed to eat some! Give it to me now!”
When I was nine watching scary movies, she said it’d give me awful dreams.
But I talked back loudly again, “I should be allowed to watch it! I’m not a baby!”
When I was a teen going out with friends, she said, “please be back by ten!”
But I shouted back angrily—“I should not be told what to do! I’m seventeen now!”
Now I’m an adult, thinking back to those times:
I coughed for days after eating that ice-cream.
And had scary dreams after watching that film.
I was late for school from staying out past ten. I regret talking back, not listening to Mom.
Mom knows best, and for me she wanted only the best!

As an old Chinese saying goes, the Spring Festival comes right after the Laba Festival, so get ready for a bowl of Laba porridge.
Today, people across China are celebrating the Laba Festival. It is a traditional Chinese festival. It’s on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month. It is an important festival for Chinese people. To us, it means the traditional start of celebrations for the Spring Festival.
The Laba Festival is a day of thanks for a good harvest. On this day, people usually eat Laba porridge, a porridge with eight kinds of mixed grains (谷物). Today many temples in some areas still have the tradition of giving out Laba porridge to the public. The porridge is believed to bring luck and joy.
The festival is also the day for people to put garlic (蒜) in vinegar (醋). This Laba garlic will be eaten with dumplings on Chinese New Year’s Day. While in the past, it was used to let people remember to pay back the money they had borrowed, as Laba is near the end of the year and in Chinese garlic sounds the same as “calculate”(算).
Customs are quite different across the country. People in Qianxian, East China’s Anhui Province, eat the Laba tofu a few days before. In Xining City, Northwest China’s Qinghai Province, people eat porridge with beef and mutton.

Hello, everyone. Welcome to my podcast. I’m your old friend, Liuhuan, a mother of two. Today, I want to talk about short videos with you.
Short videos are a new way for people to get different ideas and information on the Internet. The people of all ages have fun watching them on their phones. There are lots of social media platforms with all kinds of short video in different styles around the world like Douyin, Bilibili. Some are fun, some are educational with different topics. And nearly all of them are about five minutes long, even just a few seconds (秒). People not only enjoy watching short videos, but also interested in making them. With a smartphone, almost everybody can make a short video with little difficulty.
Short videos do have some good points. On the one hand, they can help people learn new things easily and quickly. People can concentrate (集中注意力) better on these videos because they are much shorter. On the other hand, what short videos show is so colorful that almost everyone can find his own interest. Short videos can even help people make money. For example, more people in the countryside choose to sell their things online by using short videos. This new way can make a big difference to their life and work.
However, these videos also come along with some problems. Spending too much time watching the videos takes time away from studying, working and other important things. Many children and even adults (成年人) have become addicted to (沉迷于) watching them. They hardly ever take part in outdoor activities less often, spending less time with friends and family.
As parents, we should see how terrible these problems are. We should set a good example for our children and do something more meaningful together, like riding a bike, taking a walk or playing family games. They are all helpful to help them keep away from smartphones.
In my opinion, short videos can help our children get a closer look at the world. They can learn more in less time, too. However, we still need to be careful about the online information. We should learn to tell the right from wrong and make good use of the Internet.
Short Videos

Good points They make learning easier and quicker because of its short time. They interest people with their colorful shows. They help people make money by 12 online.
Problems People take important things 13 than ever. Many children and even adults have addicted to watching them .
Advice for parents Parents should know that we 14 in family education. As long as we do something, our children will surely change and follow us.
Opinions: The short videos 15 are helpful, but we should care about the way we watch them.
On November 11, there is a holiday created by Chinese people for singles (单身人士). It is known as Singles’ Day. It has become the biggest online shopping day in the world. Tmall (天猫), Taobao and many other online shopping sites offer huge discounts (折扣) on this day to attract shoppers. This year’s sales reached 253.97 billion yuan.
There are similar shopping days in the United States. The most well-known of these is Black Friday. It always falls on the day after the Thanksgiving holiday. On this day, stores offer special deals, just like on Singles’ Day.
On Black Friday, shoppers will wake up very early to wait in line at stores before they open. They might start waiting in line as early as 2 or 3 am. Sometimes the crowds will be so big that it is impossible to get inside the stores.
Another similar holiday is Cyber (网络的) Monday in the United States. This day always falls on the Monday after Thanksgiving. It is like Singles’ Day, since it is only for online shopping.
Personally, I don’t like any of these holidays. They place too much importance on buying things. I prefer to celebrate Buy Nothing Day. It is a “holiday” that falls on the same day as Black Friday. It is an international day of protest(抗议) to draw attention to the problem of over-consumption (消费过度). What do you think about these holidays

He is always in my heart. I couldn’t believe I lost him. As I think of my father, tears fill my eyes and stream down my face.
My dad always wanted to go to Canada, so he wrote a letter to one of my uncles in Canada for help. My uncle successfully got a visit visa(签证) for my dad. So he flew to Canada, looking for a better life for his kids. That year, I was six.
After a few months, dad wrote us a letter saying he was fine and happy. That letter, and its many fellows(伙伴) down the years, all with the same words, kept coming to our doors for 11 years. Yet, even as he lived here in Canada, his health was failing him―but fearing we would worry he never let on (透露) about his ill health. He spent these years in Canada working hard; finally after 11 years when he got his landed immigrant paper(永久居民证), he wrote us saying all of us could move to Canada.
We were all happy that we would finally be together. It was to be a huge family reunion(重聚). Sadly my father did not live to see his family reunion as he suffered a serious heart attack.
Yes, Canada is a wonderful country. So many times I can’t help thinking it was here that my dad was taken away from us. When I miss him, I want someone to hold me and give me a hug.

Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题).
In the1800s, the steam locomotive (蒸汽火车头) was considered by many to be a symbol of the new Industrial Age. It was, in fact, one of the most important inventions of the time. Over the years, there have been many changes to the locomotive. One of the most important has been its source of power.
The first railroads used horses for power, but the development of the steam locomotive made railroads a practical way of transportation. The first steam locomotive was built in 1804 in Britain by Richard Trevithick. It could pull 50,000 pounds, but it was not very successful because it was so heavy that it caused the rails to fall apart. However, it encouraged other engineers to try to build steam locomotives. Two of the most important men to accept the challenge were George Stephenson and his son, Robert. Robert once won a contest to build the best locomotive. The Rocket, as he called it, had an average speed of 20 miles per hour, and the top speed was 29 miles per hour.
In America, developments in steam engines were close behind those of the British. In 1830, Peter Cooper’s tiny locomotive, called Tom Thumb, lost a famous race against a horse-drawn coach. Although Peter Copper failed, it still made railroad officials believe that steam power was more practical than horse power.
Just before the turn of the century, the electric locomotive became widely in use. Its most successful period was the 1940s when U.S. railroads had 2,400 miles of electric routes.
The diesel (柴油) locomotive was invented in the 1890s by Rudolf Diesel, a German engineer. The power of this locomotive came from a diesel fuel engine. The diesel locomotive is still in use today. It costs about twice as much as a steam locomotive to build but it is much cheaper to operate.
55．The steam locomotive was one of the most important inventions in the 1800s, wasn’t it
56．Who built the first steam locomotive
57．What does the underlined phrase “fall apart” in paragraph 2. mean
58．How fast could the Rocket go
59．Why do you think different people have continued working hard to develop the locomotive
