Dear_Jim,
It's great to hear from you.I feel proud knowing your interest in Chinese history.
As for my favorite figure in Chinese history, it must be Wei Yuan, a great thinker in the late Qing Dynasty.He, in his book, Haiguo Tuzhi(Maps and Records of the World), introduced modern technologies and ideas to ChinA.That opened our eyes to the worlD.In fact, he inspires me to major in English in college, to be a bridge between China and the worlD.Interested in knowing more?I can find you some books! Just let me know.
Cheers!
Yours,
Li_Hua

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
When Debbie decided to pursue(追逐)her dream,she rented a typewriter,put it on the kitchen table,and began typing each morning after the kids went to school.When the kids came home,she moved the typewriter and made them dinner.When they went to bed,she moved it back and typed some more.For two years,Debbie followed this routine.Supermom had become a struggling writer and she was loving every minute of it.
One night,however her husband,Wayne,sat her down and said,“Honey,I'm sorry,but you're not bringing in any income.we can't do this anymore.We can't survive on just what I make.” That night,her heart was broken and her mind was too busy to let her sleep.Debbie knew that working 40 hours a week would leave her no time to write.
Seeing her despair,her husband woke up and asked,“What's wrong?” “I really think I'd have made it as a writer.I really do.” Wayne was silent for a long time,then sat up,turned on the light,and said,“All right,honey,go for it.” So Debbie returned to her dream and her typewriter,pounding out page after page for another two years. Her family went without vacations,pinched(捏)pennies,and wore handmedowns.
But the sacrifice and the persistence finally paid off.After five years of struggling,Debbie sold her first book.Then another.And another.Until finally,today,over 60 million copies of her books are in print,and she has millions of loyal fans.
And Wayne?All that sacrifice in support of his wife paid off handsomely.He got to retire at age 50 and now spends his time building an airplane in the basement of their 7,000
squarefoot mansion(宅邸). Debbie's kids got a gift far more important than a few summer camps.As adults,they realize what Debbie gave them was far more important—permission and encouragement to pursue their own dreams.
1.What's the dream of Debbie?
A.Owning a typewriter.
B.Loving every minute of life.
C.Becoming a writer.
D.Following this routine.
2.Why did her heart break?
A.Because she brought in no income.
B.Because they can't live on just what her husband made.
C.Because Debbie had to follow her routine.
D.Because she didn't get support from her husbanD.
3.What's NOT necessary for her success?
A.Sacrifice. B.Money.
C.Persistence. D.Support.
4.Which is far more important to pursue the kids' dreams?
A.Permission and encouragement.
B.A few summer camps.
C.They got many gifts.
D.A great environment of family.

(2019· 浙江省高三“五校联考”第一次考试)Japan has made a lot of noise in recent years about removing the traditional view that women should stay at home while men go out to work.So it was shocking when, on August 7th, Tokyo Medical University (TMU), a distinguished medical school, admitted marking down the test scores of female applicants to keep the ratio of women in each class below 30%.
Their defence was that women are more likely to drop out to marry and have children.To judge female applicants to medical school purely on their academic performance would leave Japan with a shortage of doctors, they saiD.The admission has caused outrage.

(2018·安徽省合肥市高三第二次质检)It's not every day that United States history mixes with microbes (微生物)in the soil.But when the grassland on the National Mall in Washington, D.C.was replaced, it offered scientists the opportunity to study changes in the soil beneath.
The work focused on the bacteria present in the soil.T o the researchers' surprise, the
communities of microbes did not change a lot before and after the replacement.These communities in the soil are known as the soil microbiome (微生物群).
“My lab is interested in how mic robes can move around in the environment, and how they change and adapt as a result of this movement,” explains Jo Anne Crouch, the lead author of the study.“We thought that the new ‘imported’turf (草皮)from New Jersey would introduce different communities of bacteria to the National Mall.However, we found that they weren't significantly different.”
Crouch's work focused on turf grass, defined as a large area of green grass.It is made up of the grass, its roots, and the soil and microbes found with them.
Think of the soil microbiome as similar to the collection of microbes found in the human body.When the microbes are out of balance, it can make someone sick.Crouch says it's the same for the soil microbiome.Many of the worst diseases in crops or other environments are linked with changes in the soil microbiome.
Additionally, Crouch says that even though the changes between the soils were small, scientists are also starting to appreciate that sometimes a really important microbe is a rare one.This means it would be hard to observe but could greatly affect how the groups function as a whole.“Agricultural areas and other natural spaces are highly and easily hurt by negative changes,” she says.“Microbiomes offer an almost entirely new opportunity to influence inter actions among plants and microbes to improve plant productivity and health.”
8.Why did the researchers feel surprised when they focused on the bacteria in the soil?A.More bacteria appeared in the soil.
B.Microbes were replaced obviously.
C.Soil microbiome almost remained stable.
D.The soil microbiomes damaged the environment.
9.By studying the turf grass, what did Crouch and her team find?
A.Microbes grew faster in their own community.
B.Soil microbiomes were different in different places.
C.Turf grass adapted to the environment nearby very soon.
D.Similar communities of bacteria were brought by turf grass.
10.Why did the author mention the microbes in the human body?
A.To indicate the two play a similar role.
B.To prove they are both the causes of diseases.
C.To examine the environments people live in.
D.To analyze the changes of human microbes.
11.What does Crouch mean in the last paragraph?
A.Microbes are still as hard to observe as before.
B.Studies on microbiomes can be beneficial to agriculture.
C.Scientists are still puzzled about the effect of microbiomes.
D.Too many microbiomes in the soil mean no harm to plants.

It is common and usual to see people freak_out when they face challenges in their life.We all pass in different life problems and challenges.No one is free of life problems.Only a dead man faces no problem.As long as you are alive,challenges are everywhere.
How do you face problems and challenges in your life?Problems and challenges are the building blocks of your personality.They make you who you are.Besides,whether what happened in your life builds or destructs you depends on how you look at it.If you take your problems as troubles,they will be troubles and may cause destruction.If you take them as constructive tools,you are going to be built up on them.
Problems are everywhere.No one can avoid them.And they are good too.They open up a different look and opportunity if you are willing to see.When you face troubles,do not frustrate or freak out.Just cool yourself to think in a different direction.Think in a positive way.Every problem has its own good as well as bad sides.Focus on the good one.Look at the bright side.
Besides,there is always a good person,perhaps your mom or dad,or one of your friends,right beside you who can turn everything into your best if you are willing to turn to them.No matter what happens,they will be there to help you.Trust them and they will never let you down.All you need to know is that you are loved wherever you are.
