（2022秋·广东中山·八年级中山纪念中学校联考期中）When I was a junior high school student, life gave me an unexpected gift — happiness.
One weekend, on my way home, a car ran over me and cut off my 61 because of its high speed. Several days later, when I 62 in the hospital, I realized I had to spend the rest of my life without arms. I felt 63 at hat time. I was full of fears （害怕）,but 64 I knew that I had to face the fact and get it over. I couldn’t get my arms back even if I 65 every day.
However, it’s easier said than done. It took me nearly half a year to get out of the sadness. I got so much from my past story. From then on, I could treat my life with a 66 mind. But in my daily life, I often see my classmates 67 little things: they get bad grades on a test ; their bus comes late ; they don’t have mobile phones but others have, and so on. But I only enjoy my life. I was lucky to realize a truth from the 68 . Actually, it is a waste of our life to center on what we have 69 . Instead, we should always think of what we have.

（2022秋·广东深圳·八年级深圳市南山外国语学校（集团）高新中学校联考期中）Have you ever heard of “humblebragging(谦虚自夸“凡尔赛”)”? We use it to describe someone who seems to make a modest(谦虚的) statement, but is actually trying to bring attention to something they are 81 . For example, someone might say.“I just found out that I got 82 to Harvard AND Oxford. Maybe they got my application mixed up with someone else’s!” They want to tell others that they’ve been accepted to two good schools. 83 they don’t want to seem arrogant(自大的). So instead, they word it in a(an) 84 that seems more modest.
Although people who humblebrag think it will make them seem easier to get on with, a 2015 study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology showed that humblebragging has the 85 effect.
“Humblebragging backfires(产生事与愿违的结果) because it doesn’t seem very real. That ‘sadness is me attitude connected with self-promotion(自抬身价)’ does not lead to a good 86 ,” said Ovul Sezer, lead author of the study. “Even 87 bragging or complaining is better, because at least those messages are seen as more sincere(真诚的).”
Humblebragging is common and we all do it in a way Alibaba founder Jack Ma once said that his biggest mistake was 88 the company. “I never thought this thing would change my life. I was just trying to run a 89 business, and it grew so big!” he said.
Sezer said the best way to share your achievements is to “admit 90 self-promotion and win the rewards being sincere”. In this way, people will see that you aren’t just showing off and are simply being honest.

We all know that “Practice makes perfect. (熟能生巧)” is a very popular saying both in Chinese and English. It means that if you want to learn something 141 , you have to practise it many times, and then you may remember what you learn. Also we can 142 the more you know something, the better you can do it. No matter(无论) 143 we do, those words are very useful to us.
We can take English study as an example(例子). If we want to lean some new words by heart, we must learn them and read them again and again until we can remember them. Sometimes it will 144 a lot of time for us to remember, but once we remember, we can use 145 freely. If we try our best, we will do it very well. When you take an English exam and meet some words you don’t remember, how will you feel at that time? You must feel 146 . So English study means that you must 147 more and more.
We can 148 another example in learning. When we read the same story for many times, we can remember it so well that we can tell it to others. At the same time, we can also 149 some stories from what we have heard. So in our study and life, we must keep the sentence “Practice makes perfect.” in our mind. In this way, we can study well and live a 150 life.
