A week before his family vacationed in Maui in 2017, 13-year-old Myles Harris took a class in water safety and lifesaving skills with his mother Karmen. Neither of them knew how important that class would become until July 5, 2018. On that day, his mother nearly drowned (溺死)—but Myles saved her life.
Harris, now 15, received a Medal of Merit (勋章) for his action. This national honor, awarded by the US president, is given to people who do good things. However, it is unusual for the medal to be awarded to a person as young as Harris.
Harris, a freshman at Mission Vista High School in Oceanside, was shocked by the honor. But he said he was grateful he had the training and was in the right place at the right time to save his mom. “It was a scary experience.” he recalled.
His family was on vacation at the beach. As he looked around, he saw someone floating on the water. It wasn’t until he swam up to the body that he realized it was his mother Karmen. After seeing that she was unconscious, he quickly pulled her back to the family’s boat and called for help. His mother was taken to the hospital and finally was saved successfully.
After her son won the award, Karmen thanked her son, as well as the water safety class, Karmen, 46, grew up in Los Angeles where she never learned to swim because she “wasn’t a water person.” But because her son grew up near the beach in Oceanside, she encouraged him to take swimming lessons from a young age. Myles’ father, Marc Harris, 47, said he was very proud of his son and the whole experience had made his family closer.

From United States’ Miami to South China’s high-tech city Shenzhen, The Lonely Planet released a list of top 10 cities which are worth visiting. Those places include second place Shenzhen, China, Novi Sad, Serbia in third place; Miami, Florida in fourth place, and Kathmandu, Nepal rounding out the top five. Let’s have a look at some of these attractive places.
Copenhagen, Denmark
With its modern design, 15 Michellin-starred restaurants and highly bike-friendly culture, it is not surprising that Denmark’s capital has topped The Lonely Planet’s top 10 cities list.
Copenhagen’s street food business is developing fast in Refshaleon, a former industrial area with a food market, Reffen.
Novi Sad, Serbia
While Novi Sad is not as noted as the capital of Belgrade, it’s much more fashionable. It’s home to the country’s EXIT festival, which is held each July at the 18th century-era Petrovaradin Fortress.
The festival brings visitors an exciting music and art scene and a youthful atmosphere (氛围). 2019 European Youth Capital was held in Novi Sad. It was a practice run for 2021, when the city got the important title of European Capital of Culture.
Kathmandu, Nepal
Three years after it was hit by a powerful earthquake, Kathmandu is welcoming visitors to a city which is much quieter, by design.
With cars banned (禁止) from the historic center and motor horns (喇叭) banned across the Kathmandu Valley, it’s much quieter than it used to be in the past.
Shenzhen, China
Splendid China Folk Culture Village (锦绣中华中国民俗文化村) in Shenzhen is a miniature (缩影) park. Over 100 major tourist attractions have been miniaturized and laid out according to the map of China. There are cars and trains to transport visitors around the park, making it possible to visit the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven, the Three Gorges Dam, the Potala Palace and the Terracotta Army in one day.

The family of a gifted chess player living in London has been given the right to stay in Britain be cause of his “world-class talent”.
Nine-year-old Shreyas Royal had to leave the country with his parents when his father’s work visa (签证) couldn’t be used next month, the UK Press Association (PA) reported.
In a post (帖子) on his Facebook page Friday, Shreyas celebrated the news that they could now stay, saying it was a “deep pleasure for all of us”. “I would like to say a big thank-you to each and everyone from the bottom of my heart!” he wrote.
Shreyas, who plays for Battersea Chess Club, was born in India but moved to Britain when he was three years old after his father, an IT project manager, was offered a job there, according to PA.
The Home Office said the boy’s father, Jitendra Singh, had been given permission to ask for another five-year work visa without leaving the United Kingdom due to Shreyas’ talent, according to PA.
“After much research, I have taken the personal decision to allow Shreyas and his family to stay in the UK,” Home Secretary Sajid Javid said. “The UK is a country that brings up world-class talent and Shreyas is one of the most gifted chess players in his generation (代).”
Battersea Chess Club, which was established in 1885, welcomed the Home Office’s decision in a statement on its website.
“Shreyas is a very nice, down-to-earth young man who has a big future ahead of him on the world stage hopefully representing England,” said club secretary Leon Watson. “We strongly believe he will make us proud. We wish him every success going forward. In 10 years’ time we hope he’ll be a famous name as England’s first world champion.”
In a Facebook post on Monday, Shreyas announced that following his performance at the British Chess Championship he was now ranked second in the world for his age group.

Some of us like to spend money as soon as we have it, while others like to hold on to money and spend it carefully. But for people who are very smart about their cash, there are a number of interesting ways to invest (投资) it and, if things go well, make a big financial profit (经济收益).
Buying stamps, wine, coins and books are all different ways of investing your money. It comes with risks but can be thrilling as, hopefully, you watch the value of your investment rise. However, you need to know what you’re doing and making a lot of money is not guaranteed (保证).
If you’re happy to take a risk, then one of the most well-known ways of investing is by buying artwork. By buying a painting and holding on to it, its value can increase greatly, but of course, only when you sell it do you feel the profit. Some people get quite lucky particularly when they don’t expect to make any money. There are stories of people buying a painting at an exhibition for peanuts only to find out it’s actually worth thousands of dollars.
Of course, investing in artwork is not a guarantee to make you a millionaire. Patrick Connolly, a financial adviser, says investing in art is too risky and he advises his customers not to invest in it because the downside is greater than the upside.
But if you’re still interested in it, there are art fairs (博览会), such as The Affordable Art Fair, and websites provide buyers with their affordable artwork. Patrick Connolly says the best way here is to buy something you like and can afford and “if it goes up in value, that should be just an added award.”
If this has destroyed your plans for your investment, maybe there’s more chance of winning big money by buying a lottery ticket (彩票)!
71. What can we learn from the first paragraph
A. Smart people easily make a lot of money.
B. Making a good investment is interesting.
C. Different people spend money in different ways.
D. There are disadvantages of spending money carelessly.
72. If you buy a painting, what do you have to do to get an increase in value
A. You have to sell it at a higher price. B. You need to know its real value.
C. You should buy it at a low price. D. You should keep it for a long time.
73. What do the underlined words in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Going to an exhibition to buy peanuts.
B. Buying a painting for its financial profit.
C. Spending a small amount of money on artwork.
D. Exchanging artwork for peanuts at an exhibition.
74. Which of the following views may Patrick Connolly agree with
A. Artwork investments don’t necessarily result in the rise in value.
B. Generally, people can earn more money by buying a lottery ticket.
C. Buying stamps and coins is much safer than buying a painting.
D. People will surely get financial profit if they invest wisely.
75. What’s mainly discussed in the passage
A. What investments guarantee a big fortune. B. Whether it’s profitable to invest in artwork.
C. Where valuable works of art are available. D. How investment s influence people’s daily life.
第四部分:写作(共两节,满分35分)
第一节:阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
When I was a boy, our big family sometimes gathered together at my aunt’s small house in summer. Relatives from all over the country would come to visit. The adults used to crowd together to talk and catch up on each other’s life. All of us would be sent out into the front vard to play while dinner would slowly cook for all of us. Those were the days before video games and smart phones, so we often ended up playing a good old-fashioned game of tag (捉人游戏).
I remember one of those times especially.
I was the smallest of all the kids there, so I got caught first but couldn’t catch anyone else. Though I chased after my brothers and cousins hard they were all too fast for me. I grew more and more annoyed. I finally lunged at (猛冲) one of my brothers and fell face first into the dirt. I got up with tears in my eyes. Then I saw one of my female cousins standing there. She started to run but was going much slower than before. I easily caught up and tagged her. Then she turned to me, smiled and said, “I’m it! You’d better run!” I ran off laughing with great glee while she turned and started to chase one of my elder brothers.
I see now how her act of kindness that day saved me from sadness and returned me to joy. It didn’t matter that we hardly ever saw each other. We were family and she loved me. We are all one, we all belong to each other, and we are one big, beautiful family. Perhaps it is time that we should share our love, our kindness, our laughter, and our joy with everyone without fear. Perhaps it is time to finally and forever bring this world together in one big family party.
76. What did the elders of the author’s family do when they gathered together (no more than 10 words)
77. Why couldn’t the author play the game of tag well (no more than 15 words)
78. What does the underlined word “glee” in the third paragraph mean (1 word)
79. How did the author feel during the whole period of time of the game that day (no more than 10 words)
80. How do you show and share your love in your life (no more than 20 words)

六、作文
Dear teachers and schoolmates,
It’s a great pleasure for me to be here and share my experience of learning English with you.
To begin with, we should learn to learn efficiently, adopting some effective methods. Besides, developing a good habit is also of great importance. It really benefits me a lot to pre view lessons, get actively involved in class, and review what has been taught after class. Most importantly, I often listen to English programs on TV and on the radio and consult some English information from the Internet and other sources in my spare time, which helps to improve my English.
Now, I’d like to make some suggestions on English teaching in our school. Firstly, we should be given more opportunities to use what we’ve learned in class. Secondly, I hope our teachers can recommend more interesting books and magazines in order to make us better understand English. Finally, I suggest we have more English activities, such as English contests and English corners.
Thank you for listening.
