He didn‟t have mo ney, so instead of a tractor(拖拉机) , he used an old horse to plow his field(犁地).One afternoon, while working in the field, the horse fell down, dead. Everyone in the village said, “Oh, what a horrible thing!” The farmer said simply, “We‟ll see.” He was so peaceful and so calm that everyone in the village got together and, admiring his attitude, gave him a new horse as a gift.Everyone‟s reaction now was, “What a lucky man!” And the farmer said, “We‟ll see.”A couple of days later, the new horse jumped over a fence and ran away. Everyone in the village shook their heads and said, “What a poor fellow!” The farmer smiled and said, “We‟ll see.”Finally, the horse found his way home, and everyone said, “What a fortunate man!” The farmer said, “We‟ll see.”Later in the year, the farmer‟s young boy went out riding the horse and fell and broke his leg. Everyone in the village said, “What a poor boy!” The farmer said, “We‟ll see.”Two days later, the army came into the village to draft new recruits (征召新兵).When they saw the farmer‟s son had a broken leg, they decided not to recruit him. Everyone said, “What a fortunate young man!” The farmer smiled again and said, “We‟ll see.”There‟s no use in overreacting(反应过度) to the events and circumstances(境况) of our everyday lives.

It is a traditional festival for Chinese people. It comes from a romantic ancient Chinese story. Niu Lang and Zhi Nv, two lovers who got separated by the Queen Mother of the Western Heavens, can only meet that night. Thanks to this touching story, Chinese people regard the seventh day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar as Chinese Valentine‟s Day. In China people also call it “Qixi”.Meanwhile, February 14 of the solar calendar is European Valentine‟s Day. It is related to a moving story too. The story goes that, there was a cruel king in ancient Rome whose name was Claudius. He forbade the youth to get married during the wars, which made the lovers angry. There was a monk (修道士) named Valentine who was very angry at the rule and the king. One day a couple of lovers came to his temple to ask for help to get married. Valentine helped them. Later, many couples got married with Valentine‟s help. But Claudius knew it soon. He put Valentine to death cruelly. And that day was February 14, the year of 270.Compared with European Valentine‟s Day, Qixi is less popular in China though it is a traditional Chinese festival. There may be many reasons. First of all, the lunar calendar is not easy to remember for most of the young people who are used to the solar calendar. Secondly, to many businessmen, European Valentine‟s Day is not only a festival for lovers b ut also a good chance to make money. Most of the flower shops can sell their flowers at a good price on European Valentine‟s Day while the business drops in Qixi, because on European Valentine's Day lovers know more about how to enjoy it. They exchange cards, flowers and go out to date. But most of them don't know the culture of Chinese Valentine‟s Day or how to celebrate it.64. This text is mainly about __________.A. two moving romantic storiesB. something about Qixi and Valentine‟s DayC. why young people prefer Western festivalsD. how Qixi is different from European Valentine‟s Day65. Qixi is less popular than European Valentine‟s Day because __________.A. businessmen think that European V alentine‟s Day is more important than QixiB. the government encourages people to celebrate foreign festivalsC. the costs on Qixi are higher than those on European Valentine's DayD. the lunar calendar is not easy to remember and people don‟t know how to enjoy Qixi66. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?A. Lovers exchange cards, flowers and go out to date on Qixi.B. Valentine helped a couple of lovers kill the cruel king.C. European Valentine‟s Day was named after a person.D. Old people in China dislike young people celebrating Europ ean Valentine‟s Day.67. If the text goes on, what will probably be talked about in the next paragraph?A. Young people should fight for love and happiness.B. Chinese people should treasure traditional Chinese festivals more.C. Qixi will also become an international festival in the future.D. Chinese people should stop celebrating European Valentine‟s Day.DEveryone needs friends. There is an old saying, “Friends are God’s way of taking care of us.” But how do you find real friendship and keep it? The Am erican writer Sally Seamans tells young students some smart ways to find friends. Sally says finding friendship is just like planting a tree. You plant the seed and take care of it to make it grow.First, you should choose a friend. What makes a good friend? It is not because a person has money or good looks. A good friend should be kind and patient. For example, if you have a bad day, a good friend should listen to your complaints and do his or her best to help. To make a friend, you cannot be too shy. You should make each other happy and share your lives.But things cannot always be happy. Even the best friends have fights. What should you do when you have a fight with your friend? You have to talk to him or her. When there is no one around, have an honest talk. If he or she doesn‟t want to talk, you could write a letter.There are three steps to being friends again:Tell him or her how you are feeling; say what your friend has done wrong, and explain why you did this or that. Remember that friendship is the most important thing in your life.68.What‟s the meaning of the underlined word “complaints”?A. 悲叹B.控诉C. 抱怨D. 抗议69. Sally wants to tell students the ways to ____.A. find friendsB. plant treesC. get happyD. keep fit70. According to the text, you can _____ your friend after a fight.A. buy a present forB. never say a word toC. have dinner withD. write a letter to四、任务型阅读Dear Chairman,I am John from No.1 Middle School and today I will be representing the …con‟ side of the debate. As far as I‟m concerned, there is no doubt that t he internet has negative effects on our lives. The main drawbacks of the Internet I will address today are uncontrolled information and the change in the way people spend their time.Of course, on the Internet to find information is an important thing for people especially for those who are involved in research. One of the greatest advantages of the internet is that it is easier to provide such as information but it is more difficult for us to judge whether the information is true and accurate. The amount of false information on the Internet becomes more of a problem every day. This is very troublesome because people can write anything they want, and we cannot always tell if the information is true or not. In 2003, eBay, the famous website where people buy and sell things, said that 70 percent of their problems were with people who sold things that did not exist, or who lied about the products they were selling. University professors around the world complain that students are handing in papers using false information they found on the Internet. These problems of inaccuracy do not happen as often when people use traditional ways to find information, such as looking in books, newspapers and magazines.Another drawback of the Internet is that it is affecting pe ople‟s private lives. As the Internet has gained popularity, there has been a change in the way people spend their time. Now, instead of spending time together in the evenings, some families spend their time apart because one or more members are using the computer, or are at an Internet café. In fact, some young people spend so much time playing computer games and using the Internet that they have become addicted to (上瘾)computer games. To help solve this problem, a clinic to deal with Internet addiction was opened in Beijing in 2005.Some experts say that spending too much time building Internet relationships can damage people‟s abilities to live a life normally. One university did a study about the students who had stopped their studies before completing a diploma course, and found that 43 percent of them were heavy computer users. This study clearly shows that people who spend all their time on the Internet can feel disconnected from the people and the world round them.These are all negative effects the Internet has on our lives, and I feel it remains important for us either to limit our use of the Internet or to learn how to deal with the problems it has caused.五、书面表达某英文网站正在就“青少年的秘密是否该让父母知道”展开讨论，征求网民意见。
