When I was a teenager, I volunteered at a local hospital. Most patients were old people who felt lonely. One patient was Mr Green. He was seriously ill and could hardly speak. No relatives came to 16 him.
At first, I just sat beside his bed silently. Weeks passed, I found he loved music. Every time I played soft songs on my phone, his eyes would light up. One day, he tried his best to 17 a piece of paper from his pocket. On it were some old song names. He wanted me to play them one by one.
Later the nurse told me Mr Green was a famous musician years ago. After his only daughter died in an accident, he 18 playing music and shut himself away from the world. Illness made him lose most of his ability to talk.
One afternoon, while I was playing his favorite song, tears ran down his face. He caught my hand weakly. I 19 that music was the only bridge connecting him to his past.
Several months later, Mr Green passed away. He left me a small notebook. Inside were his unfinished songs and a short note: “Thank you for 20 my dead world with music.”
From then on, I realize small kindness can change others’ world greatly.
One summer holiday, I set up a small music club for lonely elders. Many old people join it and look forward to our coming every weekend. Sometimes they share their own stories and old songs. We 21 lots of warm moments together.
Last month, a local newspaper reported our club. More volunteers wanted to 22 us. Some brought musical instruments while others prepared snacks. I never expected a small act of kindness could 23 such a big influence.
Life is full of unexpected warmth. We don’t need to do great things to help others. As long as we care for people around us, we 24 brighten someone’s dark day. Nothing is more valuable than the love we 25 to the world.

Sleep plays a key role in teenagers’ growth.
A study shows middle school students need 8.5~9 hours’ sleep every night. However, over 70% of Chinese Grade 8 students sleep less than seven hours. Heavy homework, after-school classes and endless short videos are the main reasons.
Scientists point out short sleep causes poor memory, bad moods and falling grades. It also stops teenagers’ physical development. Some parents push kids to study late, thinking more study means better scores, which turns out to be wrong.
Schools in some cities have put forward new rules: no homework on school nights after 9:30 p.m. It helps students get enough rest gradually.
21. How many students sleep less than 7 hours according to the text?
A. Less than 30% B. More than 70% C. About half
22. Which is NOT the result of lacking sleep?
A. Bad memory B. Low marks C. Growing faster
23. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Studying late always improves students’ grades.
B. New school rules help students sleep better.
C. Few students have too much after-school lessons.

The world’s first recycling club for students started in a middle school in Canada. It was set up by a Grade Eight student called Lisa three years ago.
At first, only five classmates joined her. They collected waste paper and empty bottles after school and sold them for pocket money. Soon they found the money could buy books for poor kids in mountain villages. This made all members more active.
The club makes strict rules: every class has a small recycling box; students must sort rubbish before throwing away; club members check boxes every afternoon. Now over 200 students are in the club, and they have sent more than 300 storybooks to poor children so far.
A local environmental group learned about the club and gave free lessons on environmental protection once a month. Lisa says she will keep the club running and spread the recycling idea to more schools.

How to develop good learning habits
It’s important for us to develop good learning habits in Grade Eight. Good habits can make our study more effective.
First, we should preview new lessons before class and take detailed notes while listening to teachers. Second, homework must be finished on time instead of being put off. What’s more, we need to review knowledge regularly every weekend.
I have kept these habits for one year, and my English has been improved greatly. As we all know, good habits lead to success. Stick to them, and we will make greater progress.
