13、A letter of reply is sometimes a most treasured thing. Here is a story that tells about this common and natural human feeling.
The busiest woman in Labrador during one bitter cold Christmas not very long ago, was an Australian nurse named Kate Austen. But Nurse Austen was not too busy to write with a long, friendly letter for every gift of food or clothing received for poor villagers in the north of Australian. Among the gifts was a box of knittings (毛线编织品) for children, knitted and sent by a woman in Toronto.
Nurse Austen, was busy, and not feeling too well that winter. She could have written just ordinary routine notes of acknowledgement. But that was not her way. She sat down and wrote the woman in Toronto a real letter telling all about the village, and the names of the children who were wearing the knitted gloves and caps, and what they said when they got them, and how they looked when they wore them. She wanted the woman who had knitted and sent all those lovely knittings “to see how much happiness and warmth she had created.” Not long after, she received the following answer from Canada.
Dear Miss Austen,
Your letter made me happy. I did not expect such a full return, I am eighty years old, and I am blind. There is little I can do expect knit, and that is why I knit so many caps and sweaters scarves. For sixty years I have been making up
missionary packages of such clothing or food or medicine or book as I could collect. But never before in all that time have I had a personal letter picturing the village and telling me who is wearing the clothing and what they said. I did not suppose that ever in my lifetime I should receive a letter like that. My God bless you.
Sincerely yours, Laura N. Russell

14、Dear Grandma,
How are you? I hope you are feeling well and your leg is improving. Can you walk a bit now? Is your neighbour, Mrs Lu, bringing you enough books to read? I hope so. You’d love our school library, Grandma. There are so many books on a ll kinds of subjects. The other day I found a book about engineering. I couldn’t really understand it but I hope to learn more about this topic sometime. This term I have three new subject classes, so I think I’ll tell you about them.
I study biology. It i s a very interesting subject. I’m learning all about the human body, where everything is and what it
does. Did you know that we have a kissing muscle? It’s called ‘orbicularis’ and it’s a circle muscle that closes your mouth and moves your lips forward. I love biology. It’s so interesting! Another new subject is religion (宗教). I didn’t think I would like this one, but actually it is very interesting to hear how different people worship (崇拜). We are learning about lots of religions from all over the world, n ot only Asia. My other new subject is Spanish. It’s really difficult to learn a new language but I know it will be useful for me in the future, if I want to travel around the world. Spanish is one of the official languages of the European Union and the Uni ted Nations. I’ve learnt that Spanish is not only spoken in Europe but in South America too. Countries like Peru, Bolivia, Chile, and Mexico also speak Spanish. You know I’ve always wanted to go to Mexico, so if I can speak Spanish it would be really usefu l.
Did you study these subjects when you were at school? I suppose subject choice changes over time, doesn’t it? I’ll come to visit you again in the next holiday, which I think is in eight weeks’ time. I’ll bring you some of my new books if you like. I hope you can write back soon and tell me all the village news. I miss you very much.
Lots of love,
Sara

Hi Sam! Sorry I haven’t emailed recently—I’ve been revising for my exams. I have finished them now and I have got some time to relax and some money to spend on going out. Last weekend, I went to see a great film called Yes Man. If you haven’t seen it, you must go! Jim Carrey plays the main character and it’s very funny--and also quite encouraging. It’s based on a book by Danny Wallace which is also called Yes Man. I read the book a f ew months ago and
that’s hilarious, too – I really laughed out loud!
The book is a true story about what happens to the writer, Danny. Basically, he found that he was doing nothing all the time, just worrying about things and complaining about his life. He wasn’t seeing his friends much, so he was lonely and bored. Then one day, he was on a bus in London when he sat down next to a man. The man was a stranger, but they started talking. Danny told him about his boring life and the man just gave him three words: ‘Say “yes” more.’ And for Danny this was a turning point in his life. Those three words influenced everything he did. At that moment, he made a decision: ‘I will say “yes” to everything!’ And he wrote a book about what happened to him in the next year or so. Three
years later, the book was made into a hit film.
The film is based on the book although there are some differences. First, it’s set in the US instead of England. Secondly, the main character is based on Danny, but he called Carl in the film. And what’s more, he doesn’t meet a man on a bus. His turning point comes when he goes to a self-help class and they advise him to say “yes” more.
In the film, Carl succeeds in changing his life and doing lots of crazy things: he has flying lessons, he learns to speak Korean and he rides a motorbike with no clothes on! The storyline isn’t very strong. It’s quite weak, I suppose, but all Carl’s storie s are very interesting— especially because Jim Carrey is a very funny actor.
I’m really interested in the film because there’s a serious message, too. I believe in making the most of life and I’ve decided I’m going to be more positive. I’ve decided I’m not going to stay at home so much. I’m going to do more things, see my friends more and everything. Actually, that’s why I’m emailing you! It would be great if we could meet up soon. Let me know when you are free.
All the best, Adam
1．The underlined wordhilariousin Paragraph1 most probably means _____.
A．simple B．helpful C．humorous D．meaningful
2．In Paragraph 3, there are_____ differences mentioned between the book and the film.
A．two B．three C．four D．five
3．Adam wrote this email mainly _____.
A．to talk about what he was doing recently
B．to introduce the book Yes Manwritten by Danny to Sam
C．to advise Sam to watch the film Yes Man made in US
D．to talk about why and how he wants to change his life
4．From the email we can infer (推断) that _____.
A．Sam will love Yes Man as much as Adam does
B．Yes Man must be the most popular book in the US
C．Adam used to stay at home a lot before seeing Yes Man
D．Jim Carrey is now a very funny actor because of Y es Man

17、Fish hear sounds, though they have simply no ears outside their bodies. However, fish do have ears inside their bodies near the brain, and they hear very well with them. Some fish have been taught to recognize the difference between sounds better than some human beings do.
Many underwater animals make noises only by chance while they are doing something else. Other sounds are real
communications of a simple sort, telling one fish of the presence and direction of another. A few noises may be warning messages or discovery of food, etc. The earliest scientific report on fish sounds referred to one of these.
A new field in science is learning to recognize and use underwater sounds. It relies on the same skill that man has shown in recognizing birds and other land creatures by their calls. But this method is a greater challenge than bird watching, for many of the animals of the sea cannot be followed in any other known way. Their voices cry for attention. Yet we still have too little knowledge about many of the call makers. Perhaps the meaning of the calls and what the call makers are will some day be made known more carefully. It is as though the great oceans were for daring man to invade (涌人) them and to learn the secrets of the place from which his forefathers came so long ago.
1．According to the passage,fish hear sounds well with___________.
A．ears outside their bodies B．brains
C．bodies D．ears inside their bodies
2．Which of the following is true of the noises made by underwater animals?
A．None of them is meaningless. B．They are all actual communication.
C．They cannot be heard by human beings. D．some of them are meaningless.
3．Recognizing underwater animals by their sounds____________.
A．is totally different from recognizing land creatures by their calls
B．will change people's knowledge of fish
C．is more or less a battle
D．is more difficult than recognizing land creatures by their calls
4．The animals of the sea can make voices with different purposes EXCEPT__________
A．telling the direction of some animals B．crying for attention
C．telling the presence of some animals D．crying for scientific report
5．From the last sentence, we can learn that __________.
A．more secrets of the great oceans are to be found out
B．the human beings have invaded the oceans for long
C．only very brave people can make use of them
D．people are fighting each other to become the master of the great oceans

18、Fiona Famous was a very popular girl at school. She was clever and fun, and got on well with everyone. It was no accident that Fiona was so popular. From an early age she had tried hard to be kind and friendly to everyone. She invited the whole class to her birthday party, and from time to time she would give presents to everybody. She was such
a busy girl, with so many friends. However, she felt very lucky, no other girl had so many friends at school and in the neighborhood.
But everything changed on National Friendship Day. On that day, at school, everyone was having a great time, drawing, painting, giving gifts. They had to make three presents to give to their three best friends.
However, when all the presents had been made and shared out among classmates, Fiona was the only one who had not received a present! She felt terrible, and spent hours crying. How could it be possible? So much she had done to make so many friends, and in the end no one saw her as their best friend? Everyone came and tried to comfort her for a while. But each one only stayed for a short time before leaving.
When she got home that night and asked her mother where she could find true friends.
“Fiona, my dear,” answered her mother, “you cannot buy friends with a smile or a few good words. If you really want true friends, you will have to give them real time and affection (情感). For a true friend you must always be there for them, in good times and bad”.
“But I want to be everybody’s friend! I need to share my time among everyone!” Fiona argued.
“My dear, you’re a lovely girl,” said her mother, “but you can’t be a close friend to everybody. There just isn’t enough time for everyone, so it’s only possible to have a few true friends. The others won’t be close friends”.
Hearing this, Fiona decided to change her ways so that she could finally have some true friends. That night, in bed, she thought about what she could do to get them.____Her mother was always ready to help her. She could stand all of Fiona’s dislikes and problems. She always encouraged her. She loved her a great deal...
That was what makes friends!

19、Now schoolyard safety is becoming more and more important. Being middle school students, what should we do to keep ourselves safe?
Firstly, I think we should go to school or go home on time. If we are late, we should tell our teachers or parents. Secondly, we should be friendly to each other. We can’t chase each other in the hallways or fight with each other. That’s dangerous. Maybe we can fall off or be hurt. Thirdly, we can’t drink wine or eat food that goes bad. They are bad for our health.。
