A(2014，上海)
Sally：an animal doctor
What's the worst thing that's ever happened in your job?

Have you ever done any other jobs?
Yes，I did different kinds of jobs when I was a student.One summer I did fruit­picking in
Spain.
What's the worst job you've ever done?
In order to improve my English，I worked for a rich family in New York.I never had a day off and I had to do everything－cooking，cleaning，shopping—and look after their horrible children.I left after two weeks and managed to get a job as a waitress in an Italian restaurant.
Leo：an actor
What's the worst thing that's ever happened in your job?
So many bad things have happened—but I think my worst moment was when I read my first bad review in the newspaper.They wrote terrible things about me，and I was so upset.After that I
didn't read my reviews any more.
Have you ever done any other jobs?
Oh yes，it's hard to make a living as an actor.So I've done lots of part­time jobs over the years.For example，I've worked in a shop，sold ice cream at the beach and handed out publicity

What's the worst job you've ever done?
The worst job I've ever done was at an egg­packing factory.Working conditions are terrible—you stand for hours at the end of a belt，putting eggs into boxes.You can't have a break，and if you want to go to the toilet，you have to ask for permission.And worst of all，the smell was terrible—I've never eaten an egg since then.

B(2014，连云港)
A “Gap Year”is a period of time when a student takes a break before going to university.It is often spent travelling or working.It can give young people useful learning experiences and new skills.
Gap years are popular with European and Australian students，but remain less popular in America.However，in recent years，more and more American students are preparing for college by
taking a gap year.The advantages of taking a gap year are as follows：
Learn about the World and Yourself

the chance to travel abroad.You are able to work out who you are and what you are for.The experiences of different cultures offer you interesting lessons.You can learn more about the world and get to know yourself better.
Face Challenges and Have Fun

real world.This process isn' t always easy，but it is an important part of growing up.Only in this

goals can keep the students working hard instead of wasting time and money playing.

Ⅲ.任务型阅读。

I love to write！Ever since I was a five-year-old girl，I wrote stories in my notebooks and on small pieces of paper.I told stories to my friends.As a grown­up，I have written over 100 books！That's a lot！As a teacher，it's my goal to encourage all of my students to love to write.
Writing is easy if you're careful enough，I told them.Everyone I meet is a possible character.
Everything I see or do is a possible scene in a book.Start looking around you.You'll be amazed at what you discover.
Anyone can be a writer.You just put your pencil on your paper and write what you like to read，step by step：
●Create great characters.If you know your characters well，they'll write the story for you.
●Interest the reader right at the beginning.You can start your stories with dialogue or action.If you can make the reader ask questions，then he has to keep reading to find out the
answers.
●Follow the steps.The steps for every story are almost the same: Introduce the characters and the conflict(争端)；things get worse；all seems lost；the hero saves the day!
●Balance is the key.
Remember，when writing，it doesn't hurt to add some humor.
