Over the October holiday, my parents and I are planning to go to Xian to see the Terracotta Army. Ive heard that it is an amazing sight, and I cant w

17、ait to go. To me, the story of the Terracotta Army is almost unbelievable. Its amazing that there are more than 8,000 statues, and no one in modern times knew about them until the 1970s.Were also planning to visit several other places in Xian. My dad and I are both looking forward to going to the Sh

21、. More than 700, 000 people worked for nearly 40 years to build this tomb.

23、Ping had built was falling apart. One of the best players had been injured, and the team captain had to leave because of heart problems. Losing two important players was a big challenge, but Lang Ping did not lose heart. She had faced difficulties before, and she knew that her young players could wi

24、n if they worked together as a team. Two weeks later, they were world champions!

In the final seconds of a game, Jordan always seemed to find a way to win. Jordan says that the secret to his success is learning from his failures. I can accept failure, ever

26、yone fails at something. But I cant accept not trying. Losing games taught him to practise harder and never give up. In life, Jordan has learnt to share his success with others.

28、ld be asking “Am I fit? I had no idea a letter could make such a difference. Once I started thinking about fitness rather than weight, things began to change. Instead of saying I want to lose three kilos, I would say l want to run two kilometres in eight minutes or l want to be able to do 30 push-up

29、s.” Rather than cutting out the foods I enjoyed, I added healthy foods to my meals. I could still have a burger now and then, but I would add a salad or an apple.Finally, I stopped comparing myself with actresses and models and looking for things that were wrong with my face or body. Instead, I made

30、 a list of the things I liked about myself. By being positive about myself and my body, I became both happier and healthier.Unit4THE NIGHT THE EARTH DIDNT SLEEPStrange things were happening in the countryside of northeastern Hebei.
