    Thanksgiving is an important festival in North America. We interviewed several students from the US and Canada. Here is what they have told us about their Thanksgiving experiences.

    Josie from New York, USA

    In America, Thanksgiving is celebrated every year at the end of November. It is to remember the first group of people from Europe to live in America. When they first arrived, they found the environment strange. But they learned to survive after some native American friends showed them how to grow and find food. Thanksgiving is meant to be a traditional celebration.

    Todd from California, USA

    Thanksgiving is the first day of Christmas shopping. That means we have four weeks to buy Christmas presents for our families and friends. For me and my friends, the most important part of the festival is the big football game on TV. The match is watched by millions of people all over America. Thanksgiving is seen as an exciting day for football!

    Ian from Saskatoon, Canada

    In Canada, Thanksgiving is held on the second Monday in October. On the Sunday before Thanksgiving Day, many people go to church. Thanks are given for all the good things that happened to them during the year. I always give thanks for the nice big turkey I'm going to have at the family dinner! Like all festivals, Thanksgiving is about food!

    Katie from Maritimes, Canada

    On Thanksgiving Day, we have dinner with all our cousins, aunts and uncles. It is always very busy. Sometimes we have two Thanksgiving dinners because we go to both our grandparents' houses. The dinner is usually attended by more than twenty people at each house! My mother and my aunts do all the cooking but the washing­up is done by me and my cousins. And that's not an easy job! But I don't mind because Thanksgiving is meant to be a time to give thanks.

    Since the 800's, November 1st is a holiday known as All Saints' Day. The evening before is known as Halloween. During the festival, poor people would beg for food and families would give them “soul cakes” in return for their promise to pray for the family's dead relatives.

    Halloween, however, has a special meaning for children today, who dress in funny or ghostly clothes and knock at neighborhood doors shouting “Trick or Treat！” Princesses, ghosts_and_witches all hold bags open to catch the candies or cakes that the neighbors drop in.

    Today school dances and neighborhood parties called“block parties”are popular among the young people and old. They dress up as historical or political figures and go to costume parties. Teenagers enjoy costume dances at their schools and the more outrageous the costume is, the better it is.

    Certain tricks such as soaping car windows and knocking at the neighbors' windows are expected. But parties and pranks are not the only things that Halloweeners enjoy doing. Some collect money to buy food and medicine for poor children around the world.

    Halloween originated as a celebration connected with evil spirits. Black is one of the traditional Halloween colors, probably because Halloween festivals and traditions took place at night. In the weeks before October 31, Americans decorate windows of houses and schools with silhouettes (轮廓) of witches and black cats.

    Pumpkins are also a symbol of Halloween. Carving pumpkins into some kinds of lanterns is a Halloween custom also dating back to Ireland. When the Irish brought their customs to the United States, they carved faces on pumpkins instead of turnips (芜菁) because in the autumn they were more plentiful than turnips. Today the lanterns in the windows of a house on Halloween night let costumed children know that there are candies (糖果) waiting for them if they knock and say “Trick or Treat！”

    From the age of seven, Cameron was educated at two independent schools. Due to good academic grades, Cameron entered the top academic class almost two years early. At the age of thirteen, he went to Eton College in Berkshire, following his father and elder brother. His early interest was in art. Six weeks before taking his O Level he was caught smoking cannabis (大麻). He admitted the offence but had not been involved in selling drugs, so he was not expelled. However, he was fined and prevented from leaving school grounds.

    After leaving Eton in 1984, Cameron started a nine­month gap year. He worked as a researcher for Tim Rathbone. In his three months there, he attended debates in the House of Commons. Through his father, he was then employed for a further three months in Hong Kong by Jardine Matheson as a “ship jumper”, which was an administrative post.

    Cameron then began his Bachelor of Arts studies in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics at Brasenose College, Oxford. His tutor described him as one of the ablest students he had taught, with moderate and sensible Conservative political views.

    Guy Spier, who shared a tutor with him, remembers him as an outstanding student, “We were doing our best to grasp basic economic concepts. However, nobody even came close to Cameron. He would be integrating them with the way the British political system is put together. He could have lectured me for it, and I would have sat there and taken notes. ”

    While at Oxford, Cameron was a member of the excellent student dining society, the Bullingdon Club, which has a reputation for a strange drinking culture associated with boisterous (狂放不羁的) behavior and damaging property. Cameron graduated in 1988 with a first­class honours degree.

    How to Avoid an Internet Addiction

    While it may seem like everyone surfs the web these days, there is a fine line between casually checking your social media pages and having a full­blown Internet addiction. If you fear that you may lose interest in other aspects of your life because you prefer to be on the Internet, you may be on your way to an Internet addiction.

    Admit you are at risk of an addiction.

    More and more people in the world are becoming addicted to the Internet. You are not the only one with this problem, and it is becoming more and more common and more and more well­known.

    Set aside limited time for computer use.

    Make sure not to turn it on too many times a week. If you have a laptop, make sure to put it somewhere that you can remember but not somewhere that you see every day. Try keeping the lid closed when you are not using it. If you have a desktop PC, try not to go near it or put something over it like a sheet.

    Call people instead of sending instant messages or texts.

    If you are free on weekends, call friends and ask them to go outside. This will distract you from the computer.

    Use an alarm clock or timer.

    Before using your computer, decide on a time limit such as 30 minutes. Set the clock or timer and make sure that you get off the computer when the time is up. Alternatively create a shutdown timer on your desktop.

A. Make a small list of what you want to do within that time.

B. When the computer is not looking at you, you are less likely to use it.

C. This can be programmed to shut down your computer after the set time.

D. Luckily, there are ways to avoid living your life in front of the computer.

E. This will stop you from using the Internet so often or going on to another page.

F. If you have a problem on weekdays, phone your friends or ask for help in person.

G. Do not be embarrassed; find others with the same problem and help each other beat it.

    I received 3 missed calls from a number I didn't recognize today. I 1 it was something to do with an accident I had recently. I was ready to answer 2 when the number called a 4th time.3, I was asked if I was Jessica and if I had 4 anything. I said I didn't think so and 5 who it was.

    It was a man called Darren who 6 he was behind me in the shop this morning. As I was leaving, my purse 7. He picked it up and 8 to see where I had gone but he couldn't see me anymore. So he opened my purse and called the 9 inside it.

    I have just been to 10 him to get my purse back, only to find out Darren is 11 and lives rough in the streets of Cardiff. He even apologized as he said he had taken out some 12 to call me to return my purse. But 13 a few pounds used to contact me, everything was all still 14. I admit that I wouldn't have blamed him if he'd spent more of the 15.

    I think the world would be a much better place with more kind people like Darren in it.

    As an old English saying goes, “Honesty is the best policy.”It is more than an old cliche (陈词滥调), but good way to live your life.

    First, honesty is the (easy) choice that we can make. When people get involved. lies, it always costs them something. Many relationships are destroyed by lies.

    Second, honesty gives us much (free). Many people believe that being honest limits them in life, but that is not true. Sooner or later those dishonest people (pay) a price for their acts; on the contrary, when we are honest, we are (true) free.

    If there were two people (stand) before you, a person with a record of being honest and a person. is known to be dishonest, who would you be more likely   (believe)？I'm sure most people would side with the honest one. Either we live in the truth or we live in lies. Truth sets us free and lies leave us in nothing but endless troubles. Honesty is a choice that we make each day. The choice is (you). What will you choose?

参考词汇：春节联欢晚会Spring Festival Gala Evening

Dear Jack,

    Thanks for your e­mail. I'm glad to tell you something about China's Spring Festival.

    How do you like the Spring Festival? I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

    When I was in seventh grade, I was a candy striper (护士助手) at a local hospital in my town. I volunteered about 30 to 40 hours a week during the summer.

    Most of the time I spent there was with Mr. Green. He never had any visitors, and nobody seemed to care about his condition. I spent many days there holding his hand and talking to him, helping with anything that needed to be done. He became a close friend of mine, even though he responded with only an occasional hold of my hand. Mr. Green was in a coma (昏迷).

    I left for a week for a vacation with my parents, and when I came back, Mr. Green was gone. I didn't have the courage to ask any of the nurses where he was, for fear they might tell me he had died. So with many questions unanswered, I continued to volunteer there through my eighth­grade year.

    Paragraph 1：

    Several years later, when I was a junior in high school, I was at the gas station when I noticed a familiar face.

    Paragraph 2：

    He began to tell me how, as he lay there comatose, he could hear me talking to him and could feel me holding his hand the whole time.
