Dear Editors,
On my way to work every morning I drive by a farm where I can see some horses off in the distance in the woods. They are there every single morning no matter how cold or rainy or windy it is. There is a shed(牲口棚)on the farm, but it doesn’t look to me that the horses are ever taken into the shed. Is this right? I don’t think horses should be treated like this.
Sam
Dear Sam,
Thanks for taking an interest in these horses. Problems about the care of horses are different from cats and dogs. Think of wild horses that spend their whole lives outdoors finding whatever food and shelter(遮蔽物)they can on their own. The point is that horses don’t require as much shelter as a lot of other farm animals. However, that doesn’t mean that they don’t need some shelter.
It is hard to tell from your letter whether the situation for these horses is unacceptable. Above all, do you know the people who own the horses well enough to just talk to them as a neighbor and express your concern(关注)? Maybe they will tell you that the horses do go in the shed at night.
If direct contact(联系)is not a choice and you can see that the horse s’situation is poor, then call 911, report the situation and ask law enforcement officers(执法官员)to look into it.
If you just can’t see enough to prove such a report, call the Oswego Court Humane Society on 218-1180 for help from the Large Animal Assistance Project(LAAP). A volunteer from the project will help solve the problem.
Speaking of volunteer assistance, since you appear to be a horse lover, why not talk to the LAAP about volunteer opportunities for you? It’s big job, but totally rewarding, and the project always needs knowledgeable horse people to help.
24. Sam writes to the editors in order to ________.
A. ask how to keep horses in changeable weathers
B. discuss whether some horses are badly treated
C. express his strong interest in keeping horses
D. describe some beautiful horses he has seen
25. Compared with cars and dings, horses _________.
A. read less shelter
B. mother living in dinner
C. can bad weathers
D. like finding food by themselves
26. What do the Editors advise Sam to do first?
A. To call 911 find help
B. To find a volunteer from the LAAP
C. To concoct the horses’ owner directly
D. To call the Oswego Court Humane Society
27. In the last paragraph of the second latter, the editors__________.
A. hope Sam can be more knowledgeable
B. stress the importance of volunteering
C. encourage Sam to join the LAAP
D. suggest Sam change his job
C
BEIJING Oct 16 (Friday) (Xinhua)---The Chinese government will enact (将……制成法律)more support policies to life the country’s 70 million poor people above the
poverty line by 2180, President Xi Jinping pledged（保证）on Friday ahead of the 23rd International Day for the Eradication of Poverty.
Addressing the Global Poverty Reduction and Development Forum in Beijing, Xi said China will work to fight the hard battle against poverty. In his speech, Xi drew on his personal experience in the 1960s working as a farmer in a small village in northwestern Shaanxi Province, where he was struck by the poor living conditions in rural China. But over the past several decades, China has made remarkable progress in poverty relief.
China has lifted more than 600 million people out of poverty in the past 30 years, accounting for about 70 percent of those brought out of poverty worldwide. It was the first developing country to meet the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) target of reducing the population living in poverty by half ahead of the 2018 deadline. “Despite the achievements, China remains the world’s biggest developing country, and narrowing the urban-rural gap remains a big challenge for us,” Xi said.
As of the end of 2018, China still had 70.17 million people in the countryside living below the country’s poverty line of 2,300 yuan (376 U. S. dollars) in annual income by 2018 price standards. The president said poverty alleviation will be a major part of China’s post-2018 agenda. While striving to reduce poverty at home, China has also actively supported the cause in other developing countries. Over the past 60 years, China has provided 166 countries and international organizations with nearly 400 billion yuan in assistance.
China has also announced seven times it would exempt(免除), without any conditions, the matured inter-governmental interest free loans owned by heavily-indebted poor countries and least developed countries. At a United Nations summit last month the goal of eliminating poverty in 15 years was laid out and China pledged an initial 2 billion U.S. dollars to establish an assistance fund to help developing nations fight poverty.
In a video message for Friday’s Forum, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon praised China’s remarkable achievements in poverty alleviation, saying the UN welcomes those
significant and generous proposals from President Xi and looks forward to further progress with an indispensable partnership with China.
Saturday also marks China’s second National Poverty Relief Day.
28. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A. President Xi once worked as a farmer in a small village.
B. China has made great contributions to poverty relief in the past decades
C. China has announced to exempt loans owned by heavily-indebted poor countries and developed countries
D. The UN thinks highly of China’s extraordinary achievements in poverty relief
29. The underlined word “alleviation” in the Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to ________.
A. relief
B. line
C. reform
D. rise
30. According to the text, National Poverty Relief Day falls on ________.
A. Oct. 16
B. Oct. 15
C. Oct. 14
D. Oct. 17
31. The passage is most likely to be taken from ________.
A. a magazine
B. a newspaper
C. a research paper
D.
a brochure
D
The common cold is the world’s most widespread illness, which is probably why there are more myths about it than any of the other illness.
The most widespread mistake of all is that colds are caused by cold. They are not. They are caused by viruses passing on from person to person. You catch a cold by coming into contact, directly or indirectly, with someone who already has one. If cold causes colds, it would be reasonable to expect the Eskimos to suffer from them forever. But they do not. And in isolated Arctic regions explorers have reported being free from colds until coming into contact again with infected(感染的) people from the outside world by way of packages and mail dropped from airplanes.
At the Common Cold Research Unit in England, volunteers took part in Experiments in which they gave themselves to the discomforts of being cold and wet for long stretches of time. After taking hot baths, they put on bathing suits, allowed themselves to be doused(浸入) with cold water, and then stood about dripping wet in drafty（通风的）rooms. Some wore wet socks all day while others exercised in the rain until close to exhaustion. Not one of the volunteers came down with a cold unless a cold virus was actually dropped in his nose.
If, then, cold and wet have nothing to do with catching colds, why are they more frequent in the winter? In spite of the most pains-taking research, no one has yet found the answer. One explanation offered by scientists is that people tend to stay together indoors more in cold weather than at other times, and this makes it easier for cold viruses to be passed on.
No one has yet found a cure for the cold. There are drugs and pain suppressors (止痛片)such as aspirin, but all they do is to relieve the symptoms.
32. The fact that the Esk imos don’t suffer colds shows that_____________.
A. colds are really full of myths
B. viruses are the factors causing colds
C. colds are more severe than other illnesses
D. the idea that cold leads to colds doesn’t stand up
33. The experiments mentioned in Paragraph 3 made it clear that _______________.
A. it was viruses not wet and cold that made people have colds
B. taking hot baths made the volunteers easy to be tired
C. being doused with cold water did harm to one’s body
D. people who would like to exercise in the rain got colds more easily
34. According to the passage, colds are commonly seen in winter because ____________.
A. staying together indoors makes it easier for viruses to pass on
B. viruses can go into people’s warm bodies more easily in wi nter
C. there is great difference between indoor and outdoor temperature
D. people are usually weak because of the extreme cold in winter
35.The passage mainly discuss_____________
A. the experiments on colds.
B. the myths about colds.
C. the reason and the way people catch colds.
D. the continued spread of common colds.

While learning English, one should first pay attention to listening and speaking. It is the ground work of reading and writing. Open your mouth and speak English loudly and 61 (confident). Don’t be afraid of making 62 (mistake). You should also
develop 63 habit of keeping diaries in English. That’s the best way I can think of 64 (improve) your written English. If 65 (possibly), ask some others to go through 66 you have written and tell you where there is a mistake. Many mistakes in your speaking will be easily 67 (find) once you write.
Through correcting mistakes, you can do 68 (good)in learning English than ever before. At the same time, choose proper reading materials for you, 69 I think should be neither too difficult nor too easy. While you are reading, don’t stop to look up the words. If you refer to the dictionary too often, most probably you will get bored and stop 70 (read) in no time.

Nowadays, mobile phones are become more and more popular in the middle school students. In my opinion, we can bring phones to school. As we know, the 21st century is a modern age and full of informations. A mobile phone is one of the quicker tools for us to exchange messages. The mobile phone is a fashionable and useful invention, but we ought to make the best use of it. Suppose there’s sudden accident, it is more conveniently for us to dial for help immediately. There’re also some games in the mobile phone. We can relax us by playing them when we’re tired of our studies. In my opinion, it’s not wrong to follow after the fashion, but the most important thing is that to use the mobile phone in a right way.

Dear Cathy,
As a Senior One student with a big problem in my English study, I’m writing to ask you for some a advice.
Since we entered high school, we have been required by our English teacher to recite English passages. Some of the passages, which are not only long but also difficult, took me a lot of time and hard work. Don’t you feel it’s a waste of time as well? Do you agree that it’s a better way to simply read the passage aloud repeatedly than recite them word by word?
I do need your advice on whether I should go on with the reciting task, and I’ll appreciate it if you offer me more guidance on learning English well.
Yours,
Li Hua。
