安徽省“C20”教育联盟2024年中考第三次学业水平检测英语（音频暂未更新）
I'm forty. I left school 22 years ago. I don't regret many things about my school days but there are a few things I wish I'd known earlier as a girl. So here is my list of three things I'd learned at school.
□As a young child you try many new things. If you fail, you try again until you learn. Then you start school where you are usually only praised for doing things correctly. So what happens? You stop trying new things in case you get it wrong. I always remind myself: I won't give up halfway until I make it.
□I always wanted to be the best and one way of feeling good about myself was to see how much better I was than others. There was only one problem with this. When I saw they were better than me, I felt terrible. Now I compare me with myself. I asked myself if I did things as well as I could.
□How much time do you spend worrying about the future? I used to worry a lot. Now I know most things you fear usually never happen. If they happen, then they will most often not be as bad as you expected. In 6 months you probably won't remember most of the things you worry about now.
Do you miss the great snacks you had when you were a kid? Do they help you remember your happy childhood?
Sugar Figures | In the old days, there were always some people making sugar figures at the school gate. The maker would take a little maltose (麦芽糖) with a small spoon and draw a figure such as the Monkey King and the White Dragon. It was not expensive, only 1 yuan for each. |
Bubble Gum | Almost every kid loves bubble gum and kids often gathered together to see who got the largest bubble. I still remember my cousin once blew a big bubble and then it broke! Her face was covered with gum. It was cheap. I could get two for 1 yuan. |
Baby Face Ice Cream | It tastes delicious but a little expensive. I remember the price was 2 yuan for each piece which was not easy for me to buy those days. Each time I got one, the happiness would last for several days. |
Malt Sugar Candy | Malt sugar candy is usually called Tangguar in northern China and is offered during the days just before the Spring Festival. It's delicious and cheap, and you could get five pieces for 1 yuan. My friends and I often shared Tangguar with each other in the past. |

A New School My room slowly lightens, things start to appear(出现). Busy neighborhood sounds soon get to my ear. Dogs sound out with loud, joyful barks. Birds sing morning songs. I think they are larks(百灵鸟). I rise from my bed to begin the day. I dress, have breakfast, then I'm on my way. At the corner, my friends and I wait for our bus. We get on right away; there's never a fuss(大吵大闹). Our school's up ahead, the flag's in our sight. We go to read, do numbers, and write. I find my desk. My class has begun. I'm glad to be here--learning is fun! |
