I should not have dressed up. Apparently, no other fifth grader had felt driven to celebrate the first day of school via fancy clothing, and so I stood out not Just as a newcomer, but as an awkwardly dressed one. Scratching at grainy black tights with the toe of my sneaker, I paused uncertainly in the doorway of the Writing room. Pausing uncertainly, however, was not the way of the world of Mr. Matthews. This red-haired red-bearded, red-faced man beckoned(召唤)wildly to me to enter. I walked over to a seat. and in three minutes of casual observation was convinced that I had never known an adult like him. He laughed from his belly, moved his ears on request, and his face then turned even redder. His students loved him: it was evident from the way they greeted him to the way they relaxed when they entered his room. On the contrary, I was not relaxed. I was apathetic towards writing. My only previous writing experience had been in cloth-covered books with more room for illustrations(插画) than print. I had no idea what to expect from a class that was just called “Writing,” but I was certain I wasn’t going to like it. Yet Mr. Matthews spent that first class entertaining us. He told stories, jokes, and then dismissed us early for a rest. Our assignment to write about the best part of summer seemed almost an afterthought for him. However, I was seized by an inexplicable desire to do my homework. It wasn’t anything specific he had said in class that day, but the way he had acted. I wanted this man to like and approve of me, and the quickest way to earn this was through my writing. That night, despite having dealt with a word processor all of twice in my life wrote with passion(激情) Proudly handing it in the next morning, I was sure it was the best thing I’d ever written. For the rest of the year, this one-man audience inspired me to improve constantly. The fifth grader would never have guessed that, six years later, writing would become a voluntary, daily activity, flowing from journals to emails to poetry workshops to newspapers. All because she wanted to win a crazy teacher’s favor! 【1】What can be learned about the author from Paragraph 1? A.She observed her classroom carefully. B.She was overdressed for her first school day. C.She was teased about her appearance at school. D.She made a new friend outside the Writing Room. 【2】What does the underlined phrase “apathetic towards” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A.Curious about. B.Uninterested in. C.Talented for. D.Unaware of. 【3】What mainly caused the author to work hard on her first writing assignment? A.Her wish to impress her teacher. B.Her ambitious future career goal. C.Her teacher’s encouragement. D.Her excellent writing skills. |

Shoppers in the United States have many different retail stores (零售店) to choose from. You can shop at large department stores, furniture stores, jewelry stores, electronic equipment stores and many others. Another type of retail store—the catalog store, has become popular in the U.S. Catalog stores offer much of the same goods as traditional retail stores. However, in these stores, shoppers select the items they wish to buy from large catalogs that are filled with photos and descriptions of all the different goods. The variety of products listed in the catalogs includes everything from baby clothing to video equipment and watches. The prices of these items are very low. In fact, the same items often cost more in other retail stores. And that’s the reason many people prefer to shop in catalog stores. When shoppers go to a catalog store, they see many brand-name products on display. If they are interested in purchasing an item, they need to follow this simple procedure. ●First, they go to a counter to find the store’s catalog. ●They look in the catalog to find the exact item they wish to buy. ●Then, they fill out an order form with the name of the item, the item number from the catalog, the price, and their name and address. ●After completing the form, the customer gives it to a salesperson, who checks to see if the item is in stock. If the item is available, the stockroom sends it on a conveyor belt (输送带) to the pick-up counter. When the item arrives at the pick-up counter, the customer’s name is called, and the customer pays for the item. The whole procedure usually takes ten to twenty minutes. If the item isn’t available, the salesperson can usually check the store’s computer and find out when it will be in stock again. Catalog stores usually don’t offer all the services that regular retail stores do. They usually don’t have many salespeople, so customers can’t expect to receive much assistance or attention from store employees. Customers need to know about the features and the quality of the items they wish to buy before they shop, since there isn’t much opportunity to ask questions or examine the product in the store. However, catalog stores offer quality items at lower prices, and consumers seem to appreciate this. 【1】What is the difference between the traditional retail stores and the catalog stores? A.The prices of products in catalog stores are higher. B.Shoppers select the items they need from large catalogs. C.Catalog Stores offer more products than the traditional stores. D.Catalog stores usually offer all the services that regular retail stores do. 【2】Which of the following is the right procedure for a shopper in a catalog store? ①Check the catalog to select the items. ②Fill out the order form. ③Wait at the pick-up counter. ④Find a catalog at a counter. ⑤Find a salesperson to cheek the form. A.④-①-③-⑤-② B.①-④-②-③-⑤ C.④-①-②-⑤-③ D.④-②-⑤-③-① 【3】From the text we know that shopper of catalog stores______. A.become salespeople now B.do the same as in retail stores C.have more chances to examine the goods D.should know the information of the goods ahead 【4】Catalog stores are popular mainly because they________ A.offer quality goods at lower prices B.have many salespersons for service C.can help save much time when doing shopping D.offer the exact items the customer wishes to purchase |

How to write a good college application essay Here are some tips for writing that all-important application essay, which can often mean the difference between getting accepted or rejected by the school of your choice. The essay is your view of the world and your ambitions. 【1】 It needs to tell a story with passion (热情), using personal, entertaining anecdotes that show your character, your interests, your values, your life experiences, and even your sense of humor. Emphasize volunteer work or other ways you’ve helped people or made your community a better place. It helps if the activity is related to the subject you want to study. 【2】 Mention summer courses. Extracurricular activities or lab work that show steps you’ve taken to learn and understand your field of interest.

An 80-year-old man was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his 45-year-old highly educated son. Suddenly a crow（乌鸦）perched on the tree near their window. The father asked his son, “What is this? ” The son replied, “It is a crow.” After a few minutes, the father asked his son the second time, “What is this?” The son said, “Father, I have just now told you It’s a crow’. ” After a little while, the old father again asked his son the 3rd time, “What is this? ” At this time some expression of irritation(恼怒) was felt in the son’s tone when he said to his father unwillingly. “It’s a crow, a crow.” A little while after, the father again asked his son the fourth time, “What is this?” This time, the son shouted at his father, “Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again, although I have told you so many times ‘IT IS A CROW’. Are you not able to understand this?” A little later the father went to his room and came back with an old tattered(发皱的) diary, which he had maintained since his son was born. On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page. When the son read it, the following words were written in the diary: “Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa, when a crow was sitting on the window. My son asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied to him all 23 times that it was a crow. I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question. I did not at all feel irritated but I rather felt affection for my innocent son. 注意： 1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2.应使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的词语； 3.续写部分分为两段，每段开头语已为你写好； 4.续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语； Paragraph1:After reading the diary. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Feeling ashamed, the son got down on his knees before his father. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ |
