When 10-year-old Grace, from Edinburgh, was unable to find her favorite haggis and black pepper crisps (羊杂黑胡椒薯片) in the shops, she decided to do something.

At a school in Hampden, Maine, David Bishop works as a cleaner. But he is also known as the coach (教练) of the chess teams at Reeds Brook Middle School and Weatherbee Elementary School.
Both teams have made great achievements in competitions. Some people compare Bishop to a character from a television program, The Queen’s Gambit (《女王的棋局》). It is about a girl who learned to play chess from a cleaner and she finally became a great chess player. But unlike the character in the program, Bishop is helping a lot of young chess players — not just one girl.
Sometimes, the chess players beat (击败) their teacher. At first, Bishop did not like losing to the children. He called it humiliating (丢脸的). But then he understood it was good for him to lose. That meant his students were getting stronger.
Bishop said he was a good chess player as a boy. But he did not like to let his friends know that, worrying he would be thought as a nerd. Now that the game is more popular among young people, no one thinks less of young chess players like Eli Marquis, who is 12. Marquis joined other players on a recent day at his school’s library. All the students were either playing or watching chess.
The young people think that chess can help them think ahead, consider strategies (策略) and think about the influence of their decisions. “Playing chess is like a training for the brain,” Bishop said.
Bishop said he wants to see his players get better, even if that means losing to them more often. He is happy to see so many young people playing the game but he is a little disappointed that there is only one girl on his middle school team and he hopes that will change.
36. How is Bishop different from the character in the program
A. He works as a cleaner. B. He wins more chess competitions.
C. He teaches more chess players. D. He prefers to teach adult players.
37. How did Bishop feel when first beaten by his students
A. Scared. B. Sorry. C. Surprised. D. Satisfied.
38. Why does the writer give Marquis’s example in Paragraph 4
A. To describe Marquis’s love for chess.
B. To encourage more elders to learn chess.
C. To introduce Marquis’s achievements in chess.
D. To show chess is more popular with young people now.
39. What makes Bishop a little disappointed
A. He loses to his students more often.
B. There are few chess competitions for students.
C. The chess is still not a popular game.
D. His middle school team has too few girl players.
40. What is the text mainly about
A. A school cleaner who coaches chess teams.
B. How playing chess exercises your brain.
C. How successful Bishop is in chess.
D Young people who learn to play chess.

A Meaningful Day
Last Friday was a sunny day. I went to a farm with my classmates for a school trip.
When we arrived, a farmer showed us around and told us what farmers do every day. We watered plants, gave food to animals, and picked vegetables. We learned how food grows and how much work it takes to grow it.
This day was meaningful because I got to see nature up close and understand that hard work is good for us. It made me appreciate the effort farmers put into their jobs.
