Mark Twain was a great writer. He was from the USA. He was born in 1835. He was also a famous speaker. He was famous for his sense of humour. Many people liked to listen to him talk because he liked to tell some interesting stories to make people laugh all the time.

　　 One day Mark Twain was going to a small town because of his writing. Before he was going to leave, one of his friends said to him that there were always a lot of mosquitoes  in the town and told him that he’d better not go there. Mark Twain waved (摇动) his hand and said, “It doesn’t matter. The mosquitoes are no relatives of mine. I don’t think they will come to visit me.”

   　After he arrived at the town, Mark Twain stayed in a small hotel near the station. He went into his room, but when he was just about to have a rest, quite a few mosquitoes flew about him. The waiters felt very sorry about that. “I’m very sorry, Mr Mark Twain. There are too many mosquitoes in our town.” One of them said to him.

   　　Mark Twain, however, made a joke, saying to the waiter, “The mosquitoes are very clever. They know my room number. They didn’t come into the wrong room.” What he said made all the people present laugh heartily.

   　　But that night Mark Twain slept well. Do you know why? That was because all the waiters in the hotel were driving the mosquitoes away for him during the whole night.

Maybe it is true that we do not know what we have got until we lose it，but it is also true that we do not know what we have been missing until it arrives.

It takes an hour to like someone，and a day to love someone，but it takes a lifetime to forget someone. Giving someone all your love is never an assurance(保证)that they will love you back. Do not expect love in return；but if it does not，be content it has grown in yours. Do not rely on one's appearance；it can trick you. Do not rely on wealth；even that fades away. Rely on someone who makes you smile，because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.

There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them. Dream what you want to dream；go where you want to go；be what you want to be，because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.

The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past. You cannot go on well in life until you let your past failures and heartaches go off. May you have enough happiness to make you sweet，enough trials(考验)to make you strong，enough sorrow to keep you human，enough hope to make you happy. The happiest people do not necessarily have the best of everything；they just make the most of everything that comes along their way. Happiness waits for those who cry，those who appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives. Always put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel that it hurts you，it probably hurts the other person，too.

When you were born，you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die，you are the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.

A．what to do in our life       B．where to go with other persons

C．how to treat our life        D．how to get on well with other persons

6. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A．If you give someone your love，you are sure to receive love in return.

B．We often don't know what we have lost until it happens someday.

C．It is wise not to rely on anybody because you are likely to be cheated.

D．If it takes you a short time to love someone，you will forget the person.

7. One should ______ the painful past according to the writer.

A．value  B．remember  C．consider  D．forget

 In ancient Egypt，the pharaoh(法老)treated the poor message runner like a prince when he arrived at the palace，if he brought good news. However，if the exhausted runner had the misfortune to bring the pharaoh unhappy news，his head was cut off.

Shades of that spirit spread over today’s conversations. Once a friend and I packed up some peanut butter and sandwiches for an outing. As we walked light-heartedly out the door，picnic basket in hand，a smiling neighbor looked up at the sky and said，“Oh boy，bad day for a picnic. The weatherman says it’s going to rain.” I wanted to strike him on the face with the peanut butter and sandwiches. Not for his stupid weather report，for his smile.

Several months ago I was racing to catch a bus. As I breathlessly put my handful of cash across the Greyhound counter，the sales agent said with a broad smile，“Oh，that bus left five minutes ago.” Dreams of head cutting!

It’s not the news that makes someone angry. It’s the unsympathetic attitude with which it’s delivered. Everyone must give bad news from time to time，and winning professionals do it with the proper attitude. A doctor advising a patient that she needs an operation does it in a caring way. A boss informing an employee he didn’t get the job takes on a sympathetic tone. Big winners know，when delivering any bad news，they should share the feeling of the receiver.

Unfortunately，many people are not aware of this. When you’re tired from a long flight，has a hotel clerk cheerfully said that your room isn’t ready yet？When you had your heart set on the toast beef，has your waiter merrily told you that he just served the last piece？It makes you as traveler or diner want to land your fist right on their unsympathetic faces.

Had my neighbor told me of the upcoming rainstorm with sympathy，I would have appreciated his warning. Had the Greyhound salesclerk sympathetically informed me that my bus had already left，I probably would have said，“Oh，that’s all right. I’ll catch the next one.” Big winners，when they bear bad news，deliver bombs with the emotion the bombarded(被轰炸的)person is sure to have.

8．In Paragraph 1，the writer tells the story of the pharaoh to________.

A．make a comparison　　　　　　B．introduce a topic

C．describe a scene               D．offer an argument

9．In the writer’s opinion，his neighbor was________.

A．friendly        B．warm-hearted    C．not helpful   D．not considerate

10．What is the main idea of the text?

A．Helping others sincerely is the key to business success.

B．Delivering bad news properly is important in communication.

C．Receiving bad news requires great courage.

D．Learning ancient traditions can be useful.

As you’re busy with your studies, the weeks during the Spring Festival can be a time when training and healthy eating plans go out of the window. But you can continue running and avoid weight gain during the holiday season.  11    .

Pick a race

Don’t skip breakfast

If you’re going to a holiday party in the evening, don’t make the mistake of skipping breakfast. You may think you’re saving calories later.  13    .

Bring your own healthy dishes

If you’re heading to an evening event, eat regular meals and snacks every few hours up until party time. You won’t arrive at the party ready to attack appetizers. Make sure you include fiber at each meal because it keeps you full longer.

 In order to know a foreign language thoroughly, four things are necessary. Firstly, we must understand the language when we hear  46    spoken. Secondly, we must be able to speak it correctly with confidence and without hesitation.   47    ,we must be able to read the language , and fourthly, we must be able to write it. We must be able to make sentences that are grammatically correct.

There is no easy way to succeed    48    learning a language. 49   good memory is of great help, but it is not enough only   50   (memorize) rules from a grammar book. It is not much use learning by heart long list of    51   (word) and their meaning, studying the dictionary and so on. We must learn by using the language. If we are   52   (satisfy) with only a few rules we have memorized, we are not really learning the language. “Learn through use” is a good piece of  53   (advise) for those   54   are studying a new language. Practice is important. We must practise speaking and   55   (write) the language whenever we can.

 Josh and Nicky have been best friends for over a year, and they hang out together almost every day. About a month ago, they got into the biggest fight they’ve    16    had.

    It started on a Saturday, when Nicky went over to Josh’s   17    to play video games.    18    Josh said he wanted to watch his older brother’s soccer game instead, and when Nicky asked if he could    19    too, Josh said no. Nicky felt    20   , and didn’t know what was going on. He asked   21    he couldn’t come, and Josh got mad and said “I want to do something without you for a    22   !” Monday at school, Josh    23    to sit at a lunch table on the other side of the cafeteria, rather than his regular table with Nicky.    24   , Nicky left a nasty (骂人的)    25    on Josh’s locker, and the two friends    26    talking for a week.

    If you really    27    someone and have a good time when he’s around, you    28    want to spend all your free time with him. But    29    every single day with someone can be boring.

    This is what happened between Josh and Nicky. Even though Josh really    30    Nicky, he felt that they needed to spend some time alone and also wanted to stay with his    31   . This doesn’t mean that there is anything really wrong with the    32   . It just means that the two friends  shouldn’t spend every single minute together. Too much of a(n)    33    thing, even a friendship, can cause problems in the end. It’s    34    for friends to have some time to be with other people, or just be    35   .

Tina and I had been good friend for years. We often did things together, so one day Tina didn’t talk to me and just sat by herself. I don’t know what was wrong.
