In recent years, studying abroad has been popular for middle school students, for which we had a discussion last Monday. 68% of us think it is good for students because we can learn foreign languages more quickly and learn much more advanced knowledge of science and technology from foreign countries. However, 32% think most of the students are too young to live alone without any living experience and of course the costs are much higher there than at home. Besides, being far away from home, we may feel lonely and homesick. In my opinion, it is a good idea to attend schools abroad because there are more advantages than disadvantages.

Money doesn’t mean everything

While some people work for money because they need money to help their family survive, rich people own too much and spend a lot of money for what they want.

We have to admit that most people work hard so that they can earn more money. When they have more money, they spend more and because they spend more, they have to work even harder. Thus, they are trapped in a circle that never ends. Money can provide us with bigger and better houses and cars, but those so-called rich people never seem to have time to enjoy them. Instead, they have less time for themselves and to enjoy being with their friends and family. In a word, money doesn’t mean increased happiness. Therefore, we ought to worry less about money and we should always remember that “doing” is much more important than “having”.

Failure is never pleasant. It hurts. Faced with failure, some people choose to deny it; some people learn from it.

  Some parents try their best to prevent their children from experiencing failure. The problem is that it leaves a child unequipped for life in the real world. The young need to learn that no one can be the best at everything and no one can win all the time. The young should be allowed to experience disappointment and be helped to master it.

  The right attitude towards failure is to face it practically. Step one is to ask yourself what you did wrong and how you can improve. Then try hard to make progress. Sometimes failure reminds you that your direction is wrong. For example, you may be told you haven’t got the body for ballet after you’ve studied it for a long time. In this case, don’t blame others. Take the failure as an opportunity to find new possibilities.

31. to do。考查动词不定式作宾补。习惯用法：get sb to do sth.

33. helpful。构词法：加后缀，派生词。这里形容词helpful作表语。

34. be asked。考查情态动词之后接一般现在时的被动语态，该空表示“你被要求写论文”。

35. better。形容词比较级作宾补。译文：“和草草写下几项你已经知道的事实情况相比，你可能通过查阅参考书或网站获取额外的信息以便使这个计划更好一些”。

45. C。最后一段介绍了Sabur在其他领域取得的骄人成绩。

46. B。第二段第一句Aboveground, leaf-eating insects … root-eating insects提到，地上的昆虫更喜欢没有被地下昆虫占领的植物。联系本段最后一句This messaging makes ．．． for the same plant可知，当地上昆虫发现植物已经被地下昆虫占领时，它们通常会选择放弃。

47. B。根据第三段第一句In recent years it … and vice versa可知，如果食用没有被地下昆虫占领的植物，地上昆虫就会繁殖得快些。

48. D。根据第四段首句“Through the ‘green telephone lines’, subterranean insects can also communicate with a third party,”及本段中“The wasps also benefit from the signals sent by the leaves”可知答案。
