I was filled with doubts and worries until my grandfather told me to stand tall.
For me, height was my trouble. I was much taller than other girls, so I often bent(弯曲) my body at the back of the line. I had always felt unsafe as the tallest student of my class in Bala Cynwyd. And I wasn't looking forward to entering the ninth grade.
My grandfather didn't laugh at me. Instead, whenever I tried to bend myself in order to appear shorter, he would tell me \"Stand straight and tall, Alisa. \"I trusted my grandfather more than anyone else in my childhood. And whenever I was afraid of something, he always told me stories of his life.
My grandfather grew up in war-torn (战乱的) Europe. \"Stand straight, stand tall\" meant something else then. After the war, he went to America. He lived a hard life. \"If they could do it, why couldn't I?\" \"Stand straight, stand tall,\" he often reminded (提醒) himself. Thanks to the help of a friend, my grandfather got a job. He once told me that he was very nervous at first. He was not only trying to learn this hard new job but also a new language.
\"Stand straight, stand tall,\" he would always tell himself. I am so proud of my grandfather. After listening to my grandfather's unusual experiences, I have changed the way I look at my own life.
\"Stand straight, stand tall\" has become not only a piece of advice to improve my posture (身姿) . It also tells me to be proud of who I am. And I do.

Each year on Feb 21, UNESCO ( 联合国教科文组织) holds an International Mother Language Day (IMLD ). The event is to help people to pay attention to the disappearance of the world's languages; many of them are disappearing each year. UNESCO sees this as a terrible fact.
What happens when a language dies out? Something great is lost-not just sounds and marks but the way that people understand the world and communicate with each other. We keep different cultures and traditions through languages. Kill a language and all these are killed too.
Through IMLD, more and more people come to realize he terrible situation and try to stop it.
Google's 2018 Endangered (濒临灭绝的) Languages Project is a good example. Many speakers and protectors of endangered languages upload (上传) texts, audios and videos to the project website. They want to introduce the way that people communicate and express themselves around the world.
The Myalgia Project is the same kind of effort to revive the language spoken by the Miami tribes (部落) of the United States. Project members work to encourage people to study and communicate with this language , which died out in the 1960s.
These activities give life to those endangered languages. People who work to keep Languages
alive are not limited to the past. Many young people design apps and use social media to support their activities. They \"spread the word \" to save the world.
So, while the problem of disappearing languages remains a very serious one, there is hope. We all have a
special feeling of our mother language. This is why we should remember the wise words of late president of South Africa, Nelson Mandela: \"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.\"
( )26. UNESCO holds IMLD every year in order to help people to _______________.
A. learn and use endangered languages

( )27. What did people do in Google's 2018 Endangered Languages Project? A. Discuss how to make good use of Google. B. Offer online courses on endangered languages. C. Share materials about endangered languages online.
D. Translate endangered languages into mother languages.
( )28. What does the underlined word \"revive\" mean in Paragraph ( 段落) 4? A. 创造
B. 学习
C. 复活
D. 清除
( )29. What can we infer ( 推断) from Paragraph 5?

B. The disappearance of languages has already stopped. C. Young people don't care about endangered languages. D. Young people have creative ways to protect languages.

There are many ways to help improve your health like eating healthy food. taking exercise and getting medical help. But the easiest and cheapest way to improve your health is just to sleep eight hours or more every night. The general sleeping rule is that the younger you are. The longer sleep you need. But regardless of(不管)age, some people need to sleep more while for some a few hours is enough.
The problem with sleep is that more and more people in the world are not sleeping enough.
According to the World Health Organization over half the people in the world may be sleep-deprived. Having less sleep not only makes people feel tired but also causes accidents. In the United States alone, sleepy drivers cause at least 100,000 traffic accidents a year. Also sleep problems can cause medical problems such as high blood pressure(血压).
Why are so many people sleep-deprived? Part of the reasons may be cultural. In the American culture, people put a higher value on work than on sleep. In fact, people who sleep a lot are usually seen as “lazy”. Also, you can sometimes hear some people say proudly that they don’t have much time to sleep. they only
sleep four or five hours a night. It seems that the less you sleep, the more work you’ll do. How do we teach these people to learn the value of sleep? Perhaps they may listen to the advice of Dr. James Maas. an expert(专家) in sleep. He says ,”Sleep is like a credit (信用卡) card. When you sleep less. you are only borrowing time. You always have to pay it back. The more hours you don’t sleep, the more hours you should t sleep to “pay back” the hours on your ‘sleep credit card.’”
For those who value work more than sleep, they should listen to what a famous person once said. “Don’t think you will be doing less work because you sleep during the night. That is a foolish(愚蠢的) idea which is held by people who have no imagination. You will be able to do more.”
