We can order tickets for Shanghai Disneyland Park by _. A. making a phone call B. talking on QQ C. filling in a form D. making a phone call or going to its websiteBWhat is the sky? How high is it? What colour is it? What birds can live above it? These questions are difficult to answer, arent they?In fact, the sky has no colour. Then why does the sky look blue?We know that there is air around the world. When planes fly, they need air to lift their wings. Planes cant fly very high. That is because the air gets thinner when they go higher. The same will happen to us if we go high enough. If we go up about 1, 200 kilometres from the earth, well find no air there. Some birds can fly into the sky as high as a plane, but they cannot fly or live without air.Looking up above us, you will see the blue sky with white clouds. It is usually light blue. The colour would be bluer when you see on the top of a high mountain. And you will see fewer clouds in the sky between you and the sun.Sometimes the sky doesnt look blue. When the sun rises and falls, you will see red, orange, and other colours in the sky. Such are the most beautiful moments of the day.Who can see the colours of the sky high above the earth? The astronauts(宇航员)! They can see those beautiful colours of the sky from outer space. However, before flying into outer space, they sit in a spaceship high above the earth, and there is no air at all. The sky would be that dark and its colour would be black.Now you may understand that we see colours because the air scatters(使散射) the sunlight. Light travels through the air. Without air, there would be no light or colours.46. Planes cant fly as high as possible because _.A. the sky is blue B. the air becomes thinner C. the sky has no colour D. the wings are heavier47. When you stand on the top of a high mountain, you will see _.A. more air B. bluer skies C. more coloursD. more clouds48. We might see many colours in the sky at _ during the day.A. 6:00 a.m.B. 9:00 a.m.C. 1:00 p.m. D. 3:00 p.m.49. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. The sky itself has the blue colour. B. There is no air when we are about 1, 200 metres from the earth. C. The astronauts can fly into outer space in a spaceship with no air at all. D. We can see colours because the air scatters the sunlight.CI was in line waiting to pay. A little boy in the front was buying some clothes.I noticed that the little boy was paying mostly with change (零钱). It seemed that he had broken his pig bank to do this shopping. However, the cashier(收银员) told him he was $ 8.00 short after counting his money.It was clear that the boy had already used all the money. The lady in front of me said, “Well, I could pay half of that.” I told the boy that I could pay the other half. We dug into our handbags. However, both of us only had ten-dollar bills (纸币). Other shoppers began digging into their pockets to find some change. It was amazing and touching as all these strangers seemed to react (反应) with the same mind. All wanted to be of help. Within minutes the cashier said, “I have too much money.” The cashier didnt need our ten-dollar bills. Then the lady in front of me said, “Wait! I didnt even get a chance (机会) to give anything!”I smiled at her and said, “You did your share, because it was your idea and you started all this.” The little boy smiled and thanked us. I left with a good feeling. I saw the love and goodness of others all around me. The woman in front of me smiled and said, “It feels good to give, doesnt it?” I smiled back and said, “Yes!”50.

When things happen so fast, maybe you cant understand clearly what you are doing or learning, so it is important to stop yourself to think about what you have been doing or learning.Self-reflection (反省) means slowing down and calming yourself, including calming your mind. Some people like to do self-reflection only in their mind. Others keep a diary. Whats more, taking notes is also OK. Each method (方法) works. You can follow the steps to do self-reflection.First, choose the proper (合适的) time to do it. School textbooks are divided into (被分成) units of study. This makes it easier to begin self-reflection. Look for time when you finish a unit of study. Sometimes you know its the time because there is some kind of test. Use these natural breaks to stop and do self-reflection.Then, find a quiet place and take out your reflection diary. Write down some notes on the new things that you learned in the unit. Finally, think about things that you are not sure of. Maybe you learned a new way to work out a maths problem, but youre not sure when to use it. Writing down your questions will help you remember to look for answers the next time you are working with the same topic.Successful students always know self-reflection is important. If you have never taken the time to do self-reflection, try it now.Self-reflection makes you a better learnerIntroductionIt means slowing down and making yourself 55 .You can do it only in your mind, and you can also keep a diary or take notes to do it. 56 to do it Its a proper time to start it when a unit is 57 . Write down and think about what you have learned in the unit. Write down questions about something you are not sure of. Its 58 to work with the same topic the next time.ConclusionSuccessful students always know the 59 of self-reflection.
