Winnie the Pooh
by A A Milne
My father used to read this to me when I was very young — he used different voices for all the animals. The characterization (角色设定) was so clever; we all know someone just like each inhabitant of the HundredAcre Wood: gloomy Eeyore; thick but loyal Pooh; enthusiastic Tigger.
A A Milne was masterful in exploring the way they got along together, opening my eyes to how society really works.
Last Chance to See
by Douglas Adams and Mark Carwardine
This book tells of the authors, adventures as they set out to find the rarest of animals, those on the edge of extinction.
Their travels are rather exciting and they share a wonderful humour, which really appealed to me. Yet underpinning (支撑) everything is the realization that we can't just sit back and allow species to disappear. PicturePalace
by Paul Theroux
I've always loved Theroux's travel writing, but this novel took my breath away. The words aren't long or complicated but, fromthat first paragraph, his writing grabs you by the nose hairs and drags you along.

A young female athlete in thePhilippinesrecently won many gold medals during a sports meet despite not having proper running shoes. Rhea Ballos, an 11-year-old student ofSalvationElementary Schoolin Balason,Iloilo, wasonly wearing bandages around her feet when she competed at the Iloilo Schools Sports Meet.
Facebook user Valenzuela posted pictures of the girl with her feet wrapped in bandages bearing the famous Nike logo. Ballos even wrote the word “NIKE” on the sides of her “shoe” to complete the “Nike running shoes” look. The bandages were tightly wrapped around her feet, creating a thin protective layer against the track. While she was actually barefoot during the races, she was still able to defeat her competitors who all more proper footwear intended for running,
According to the post, Ballos bagged the top awards in the 400-meter dash, the 800-meter run, and the 1500-meter run in the girls' categories in the inter school sporting event held in Iloilo, central Philippines.
When pictures of her “Nike” footwear become popular, Flipinos on social media praised her. Many noted that instead of falling into self-pity, she was even able to make light of the situation by drawing the Nike logo on her “running shoes”. Some of the commenters of Valenzuela's post expressed how the girl deserved to be recognized by Nike and that the brand should actually give her a new pair of real Nike shoes. Others started getting in touch with the American sports brand, as well as local basketball specialty store Titan 22.
It did not take long for Titan co-founder and Alaska Aces head coach Jeffrey Cariaso to take notice of Ballos' outstanding achievement. Cariaso immediately made an effort to get in touch with the young track runner. The seven-time PBA champion has since talked to the student as well as her coaches in an apparent bid to help her out.

A year ago I received a full scholarship to attend the University of San Francisco. All of my hard work paid off. My mom had spent a lot on my attending a private high school, so I made sure to push myself: I volunteered, took part in various clubs, and graduated with honors. I was so excited to start a new part of my life.
Soon enough, the big day came, but it wasn't like what I had thought. The first two weeks were the most difficult days of my entire life. Every night I would cry myself to sleep. I was missing my family, my home and everything in my hometown so much and I didn’t know how to deal with my broken heart.
To distract myself, I threw myself into my studies. I also found a ton of jobs. In any free time, I started forcing myself to go to the gym. I wanted to keep every part of my day busy so I wouldn’t think about how lonely I felt. Soon after, I began to control my eating, considering it another solution to my homesickness. But soon there was something wrong with me.
Finally, I went to see a doctor. When the doctor told me I had no choice but to take time away from school, I started to fear. How could I stop? School was what I was best at. “I’m not so bad,” I thought in my head. But the result was that I was taken to hospital again a month later and my mother camewoefully. I had to take a semester off from school, and go to the treatment center near my home.
If there are girls who are suffering similarly, I hope you know that there is hope and that you should have a
positive attitude towards life. Though you may feel alone, there are so many people who can understand your struggle. That’s why I want to share my story.

Eye doctors inBristolcared for the 17-year-old after his sight had gone to the point of blindness. Tests showed he had serious vitamin deficiency(缺乏).

In terms of his sight loss, he met the standards of being blind. “He had blind spots right in the middle of his sight,” said Dr Denize Atan, “That means he can’t drive and would find it reallyarduousto read, watch TV or recognize faces.”
Dr Denize Atan said that parents should learn about the harm that can be caused by picky eating, and turn to experts for help. For those who are concerned , she advised, “It’s best not to be anxious about picky eating , and instead calmly introduce one or two new foods with every meal.” She said multivitamin tablets can supplement(补充) a diet, but cannot take the place of eating healthily. “It’s much better to take in vitamins through a varied and balanced diet,” she said, adding that too manycertain vitamins , including vitamin A, can be harmful ,“so you don’t want to overdo it.”

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

选项中有两项为多余选项Has it occurred to you, that settling even the smallest of conflicts between you and your friend may become a battle? There is conflict in all relationships.

Being a teenager is not easy.____20____We tend to impose our own ideas on others, hoping that others should be thinking the same. We often forget to think in others' shoes.

Seeing that the old man wasn’t breathing, Tom asks me to call the First-Aid Center and he used the mouth-to-mouth way make the old man breathe.

本文主要讲了作者和汤姆帮一位从自行车上摔下来的老人进行急救的经历。

第一处：考查冠词。

泛指“一位老人”，且old的首字母发音是元音音素，所以用不定冠词an，the改为an。

第二处：考查宾语从句的虚拟语气。

we carry the old man to hospital是一个宾语从句，suggest表示建议，所以宾语从句中应该使用should + 动词原形，should可以被省的虚拟语气，所以把carried改为carry。

第三处：考查连词。

根据Tom did not agree可知，表示转折关系，所以and改为but。

第四处：考查代词。

他学过急救，所以他说这位老人一定不能被移动。

所以I改为he。

第五处：考查语态。

the old man与move之间是被动关系，所以用被动语态，moving改为moved。

第六处：考查定语从句。

句意：我们应该把他留在他原来的地方。

根据前文说不要移动他，可知这里是把他留在原来的地方，故关系词应该是表示地点，所以what改为where。

第七处：考查时态。

表示发生在过去的事情，用一般过去时，所以asks改为asked。

第八处：考查不定式。

汤姆让我给急救中心打电话，他用人工呼吸的方法让老人呼吸。

作目的状语，所以用不定式，way to make（增加to）。

第九处：考查动词。

不久，这位老人开始移动，并且医生也来了。

表示“移动”用move，on为多余，删除on。

第十处：考查主谓一致。

what we had done是主语从句，从句作主语，谓语动词用单数，所以were改为was 52.略。
