There’s a lot of good news about Chinese volleyball player Zhu Ting.
She was named as the Most Valuable Volleyball Player of the China Volleyball Association for the 2019-2020 season. At the same time, readers can find her story in a children’s book When I Grow Up—Sports Heroes. A British publishing house published the book. It’s about how children become sports superstars. Those superstars include LeBron James and Lionel Messi.
Zhu Ting now plays for the Tianjin Bohai Bank Women’s Volleyball Club. Last season, she helped Tianjin win its 12th top league title. She is also the captain of China’s women’s national volleyball team. When she first joined the national team, the 1.98-meter-tall girl found it difficult to move quickly because she was so tall. But head coach Lang Ping trained her to jump high and spike the ball. Since then, the fighting spirit of the national team has inspired her. After hard practice, she became a great spiker.
She used to play volleyball in Turkey and she improved her English there. When she arrived there, she couldn’t speak English well and needed help. But she kept practicing English after her training. After three months, she could easily talk with her teammates in English.

Dear Jason,
Most parents tell their children, “you can be anything you want when you grow up.” I feel the same and I say this often. But I also want you to understand that the dream itself comes from hard work, some good luck and good timing.
Jason, here are some words of wisdom as you make your way in the world, from your dad.
Be open-minded to changing your path (even several times) along the way.
In high school, I wanted to be an officer. I left my hometown and entered a college in Washington D．C． There, I discovered that I’m creative, a strong leader and great at marketing. As a result, I moved on to the head of a national organization. Becoming a dad while in that job opened my mind to starting a business. Now I run a successful company I started up all by myself.
Work out what you are good at and what you are interested in. Keep an open mind and change what you are doing based on what you are learning about yourself.
Failure is very important to your success. I won’t tell you to feel good about failure. Failure can be heartbreaking. But I will tell you that every failure I’ve had along the way has certainly made me better. Failing the big math exam in high school and going to summer school were embarrassing（令人尴尬的）. I finally passed, and I’ve never failed an exam again. I learned from that experience to ask for help. Now, I ask for help in business all the time.
I’m proud to be role model to you as a dad and a company owner. I hope I can help you believe that you can be anything you want and you can have everything on your list.
Love,
Your dad

Like most teachers, on the very first day of school, Mrs. Black told her students she was kind and she loved them all the same. But that was impossible because in the front row was a little boy named Teddy. With dirty clothes, Teddy could be unpleasant.
At the school where Mrs. Black taught, she was required to receive each child’s past record and she put Teddy’s off until last. However, when she received it, she was quite surprised.
Teddy’s first grade teacher wrote, “Teddy is a bright child with a ready laugh. He does his work well and has good manners....he is a joy to be around.”
His second grade teacher wrote, “Teddy is an excellent student, well liked by his classmates, but he is troubled because his mother has a terminal illness.”
His third grade teacher wrote, “His mother’s death has been hard on him. Teddy doesn’t show much interest in school and sometimes sleeps in class.”
By now, Mrs. Black realized the problem and she was ashamed(羞愧的) of herself. On the very day, she gave up teaching reading, and writing. Instead he began to teach children. Mrs. Black paid special attention to Teddy. By the end of the year, Teddy had become one of the smartest children in the class.

Four years after that, she got another letter, saying that he would soon graduate from college with the highest honor(荣誉).
Then four more years passed and yet another letter came. This time, Teddy said he was going to be married and invited Mrs. Black to his wedding. At the wedding, Teddy whispered in Mrs. Black’s ear, “Thank you Mrs. Black for believing in me. Thank you so much for making me feel important and showing me that I could make a difference.”
Mrs. Black, with tears in eyes, whispered back, “Teddy, you have it all wrong. You were the one who taught me that I could make a difference. I didn’t know how to teach until I met you.”

The late president of South Africa, Nelson Mandela. once said, “If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to a man in his own language, that goes to his heart.”
Mandela understood that our mother language is a very intimate (亲近的) thing to us. For people who speak an ancient tongue as their mother language, it helps them keep their traditions. Their language is their main connection with their ancestors. And it is also how they imagine the future.
So it’s a serious thing that a language disappears. Over the last century, more than 400 languages have died out. Some languages are now spoken only by a few dozen people, like Yagan in Chile. Africa and South Africa are also places where many languages are dying.
Why are we humans speaking fewer languages than we once did The answer has to do with globalization. With greater trade and communication, the planet has become smaller. It’s become more useful to speak some languages—English is the obvious example—than others. The effect has been to kill certain languages, usually ones spoken by less populous and powerful peoples.
But there are people and organizations all over the world that aren’t prepared to accept a planet with fewer and fewer languages. Through efforts both large and small, they are getting people to speak and read in certain languages, and to pass them on. Each year on Feb 21,The United Nations also holds International Mother Language Day in the hope that the public pay more attention to dying languages.
This work is important. As US writer Rita Mae Brown wrote, “Language is the road map of a culture. It tells where its people come from and where they are going”.
Mother tongue: a path to the 56 & the road map of a culture
Presentation of the problem The 57 of mother tongue It 58 people not only to their traditions and ancestors but also to the outlook for the future.
How 59 the problem is With 60 400 languages having died out, some languages are left to be 61 by fewer and fewer people.
62 of the problem Globalization makes it 63 useful to speak languages of less influence.
64 to solve the problem Some people and organizations are working to pass on certain languages spoken by less populous and powerful people; The UN has set Feb 21st as International Mother Language Day to 65 people’s attention to dying languages.
B）请根据短文内容及首字母提示,填写所缺单词,并将答案填写在答题卡相应位置上。
With social development, many people don’t stay in the same place forever. So many things can k 66 you from seeing your loved ones in person, from busy schedules to long distances (距离) to a rather unexpected pandemic COVID-19. Fortunately, thanks to modern technology, the people we miss are o 67 only a phone call or text message away. But if you’re someone who p 68 typed-out messages, you may want to think twice. A new study found that communication that i 69 voice, like a phone call or video chat, created s 70 social connections than communication through typing, like text messaging or email.
Researchers found that although people thought that a phone call with an old friend would be less comfortable, h 71 someone’s voice actually made the experience better. In an experiment, the researchers had strangers connect by e 72 texting, talking over video chat or talking using only audio (语音). They found that both forms of voice c 73 —whether video or audio only—made the strangers feel more connected than when they communicated through texting. Sabrina Romanoff, a doctor from New York, says texting can make it hard to get the t 74 meaning behind a conversation. “While making a voice or audio phone call, each party is there, so the speakers are able to understand the meaning behind the content (内容) w 75 thinking over the endless possible meanings behind words.”

Secondly, if he still does things that make you feel uncomfortable or sad, just ignore him and don’t care about what he says. A true friend will accept you for who you are, not for how you look or what you personally believe. Lastly, try to be accept yourself for who you are. Remember, you are unique.
