25、March 2 is Old Stuff(物品) Day. You must have some old stuff around. And today is all about enjoying it. Because what’s better than finding something really great from days gone by?

It’s so easy to forget things you have. And that’s not just the things in your home—in the age of new information, we can have so many things easily. Today is all about remembering the things we sometimes leave behind.

We’ve learned to value what age can bring to things. Wines, for example, are more valuable and tastier as they grow older. It’s certain that old things still have their uses or charm. People today will pay a pretty penny for stamps, toys, video games, books, coins, and clothes of yesterday.

You can really get into the charm of old things by visiting a junk shop(旧货店). Another person’s old stuff could be your new stuff! Old stuff could become a great gift for someone else, or you could always send your old things to a charity shop. If you’re free, you could turn your old things like old clothes into new ones with just a little change.

Today could be a good day to visit your older family. You could ask your grandparents to tell you stories about family history, their childhood and their youth. Learn about what was going on in the world when they were growing up.

Most of all, remember that today’s new stuff will one day be old stuff.

【1】What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3?

A．Old things take too much room at home.

B．Old things are still valuable and useful.

C．We may forget things that we have easily.

D．People always clean up their houses.

【2】According to the writer, which is NOT a proper way to deal with old things?

A．Turning old things into new ones.

B．Sending them to a charity shop.

C．Cutting them into small pieces.

D．Giving them to someone else as gifts.

【3】The purpose of writing this passage is to make readers ________.

A．realize the value of old things

B．find out the importance of study

C．remember family history

D．get on well with neighbors

26、As a volunteer teacher, I traveled a long way to a small village school in Longzhou, Guangxi. On my way there, I thought about the village, the school, and the children there. However, my heart sank when I arrived there. It was out of what I expected. It didn’t look like a school at all!

I knew they needed me.

I was busy preparing lessons and reading test papers every night. I enjoyed teaching these lovely and hard-working children, and I could see that they were making progress with my help. I have also learned a lot from them. I understand their life more, and we are now good friends.

I have worked in Longzhou for a year now. I’m very happy, and the experience has been very useful to me. I love the small village and the children. In fact, I would like to go on working here.
