Dear Sally,

It feels such a long time since last time I see you. So far my summer in Xiamen has been great! I spent all my weekends at the beach. I am getting a nice tan(黝黑) and you can not longer say I am paler than you . I’ve been playing lots of beach volleyballs, and just this passed weekend I got the first place in a match! On weekends I work in a club which I teach kids to draw. Although the pay isn’t high, but I love the job very much, because I like drawing and I love kids a lot. I hope the summer’s been going good for you too. There is only one month left in the summer vacation and after that it’s time to school. Would you like to meet up some time before school starting? I want to share with you the photos I’ve taken. I’ll give you call when I return home. See you soon!

Love,

Mary

注意：每个空格只填一个单词。

Are you interested in writing a novel? Well, if you want to be a good novelist, you’re supposed to avoid some common writing mistakes, the first one of which is not having a thunderous start．The first word, first sentence, and first page of your novel will decide if the reader wants to turn the page and keep reading．Having too much unnecessary information at the start and keeping the reader waiting for the real story can make him lose interest and give up on the book．You don’t want that to happen．All is well that “starts” well．

It’s also wrong not to have decided on an audience before writing your novel．Decide what kind of an audience your novel will cater to．Once you’re sure who will be reading it, you’ll know what style of writing you should adopt, the kind of language you will have to use．This gives you a direction and enables you to write better．

Another writing mistake is writing with your head, not with your heart．Every kind of reader should be pleased, every character should be perfect, every character should be likable, and the novel should have a happy ending．If these are your thoughts when writing a novel, you are probably not thinking straight．Writing with business or monetary gains as your aim should be discouraged as that affects what you really want to express．Write because you want to, not because you have to.

You also need to avoid writing too quickly or too slowly．If you are writing too slowly, it either means you are just too lazy or procrastinating (延迟)．If you are writing too fast, you are either rushing it or are not giving yourself enough time to shape it．Neither of the two is healthy for your novel or you as a writer．Some sections might take longer than others and vice versa．Just maintain the required pace．

Using words and sentences that are neither appropriate nor rich is also a common writing mistake you should avoi

Words are all you have to make the readers feel what the character is feeling, to visualize what the protagonist (主人公) is looking at, or to imagine the coldness in the eyes of the criminal．If you confine (限制) your vocabulary to a limited set of words, you limit the experience of the reader．Anger is not the only word which can be used to express that emotion．Make use of words like fury, wrath, vengeance, rage and frenzy to express anger．Similarly, if a scene needs a dialog, don’t write a report or an essay there．Instead, spice it up by involving an animated, energized dialog.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

A glass a day keeps obesity at bay．Alcohol has always been thought to cause weight gain because of its high sugar content, but new research suggests a glass a day could form part of a diet．Looking at past studies they found that, while heavy drinkers do put on weight, those who drink in moderation can actually lose weight．

A spokesman for the research team at Navarro University in Spain says, “Light to moderate alcohol intake, especially of wine, may be more likely to protect against, rather than promote, weight gain”．The International Scientific Forum on Alcohol Research reviewed the findings and agreed with most of the conclusions, particularly that current data do not clearly indicate if moderate drinking increases weight．

Boston University’s Dr．Harvey Finkel found that the biologic mechanisms (生物学机制) relating alcohol to changes in body weight are not properly understood． His team pointed out the strong protective effects of moderate drinking on the risk of getting conditions like diabetes(糖尿病)，which relate to increasing obesity．Some studies suggest that even very obese people may be at lower risk of diabetes if they are moderate drinkers．

The group says alcohol provides calories that are quickly absorbed into the body and are not stored in fat, and that this process could explain the differences in its effects from those of other foods．They agree that future research should be directed towards assessing the roles of different types of alcoholic drinks, taking into consideration drinking patterns and including the past tendency of participants to gain weight．

For now there is little evidence that consuming small to moderate amounts of alcohol on a regular basis increases one’s risk of becoming obese．What’s more, a study three years ago suggested that reveratrol, a compound present in grapes and red wine, destroys fat cells．

1.The passage is mainly for those ______．

A． who produce wine

B． who are eager to lose weight

C． who go on a diet

D． who have a drinking habit

2.The underlined phrase “in moderation” in the first paragraph means ______．

A． properly B． carefully

C． excitedly D． frequently

3.Why has alcohol been thought to cause weight gain?

A． Because its calories are stored in fat．

B． Because it is rich in sugar．

C． Because it changes drinking patterns．

D． Because it increases the risk of diabetes．

4.What can we learn from the passage?

A． The specific roles of different types of alcoholic drinks are very clear．

B． Resveratrol is proved to increase the risk of becoming fat．

C． The research found moderate drinking has a strong protective effect．

D． Current data clearly show that moderate drinking increases weight．

5.What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?

A． How to do some easy experiments．

B． How to prove the finding mentioned above．

C． How to make wine in a healthy way．

D． How to reduce the calories contained in wine．

Our plan was to drive into Cambridge, catch the 7:34 train to Liverpool Street Station, then to separate and meet again for lunch. We should have arrived at Liverpool at 9:19, but due to a typical London fog, the train had to move along so slowly that it was not until 10:30 that it got there. In spite of our late arrival, Joan, my wife’s sister, decided that she would go to see the Crown Jewels in the Tower of London while we went shopping. It was only after her sister had disappeared into the fog that my wife realized that we hadn’t decided where we should meet for lunch. Since I had our three tickets for the concert in my pocket, this was indeed a problem. There seemed to be nothing we could do except taking a taxi to the Tower of London, and try to find her there. Needless to say, we didn’t find her.

It was now one o’clock, and the concert began at 2:30. “Perhaps she will think of waiting outside the concert hall,” suggested my wife hopefully. By this time the fog was so thick that road traffic had to stop, and the only way to get there was by underground railway. Hand in hand we felt our way along the road to where we thought the nearest station should be. An hour later we were still trying to find it. Just as I was about to lose my temper completely when we met a blind man tapping his way confidently through the fog. With his help we found Tower Hill tube station just fifty yards down the road.

By now it was far too late even to try to get to the concert hall before the performance began at 2:30, so we decided to return to Cambridge. It took seven long hours instead of the usual two to make that journey. Nor were we able to get any food and drink on the train. Tired and hungry we finally reached home at ten, opening the door to the sound of the telephone bell. It was Joan; she had seen the Crown Jewels, had managed to get another ticket for concert, and had had a wonderful dinner at a restaurant near the hotel where she decided to stay for the night. Now she was ringing to discover whether we had had an equally successful day.

1.Why was Joan separated from her sister and her brother-in-law?

A. they could not see each other because of the fog.

B. Joan had not seen Crown Jewels.

C. They planned to do different things until lunch time.

D. The writer didn’t want to go to the concert.

2.What did the writer plan to do in the afternoon?

A. Go to the concert. B. See the Crown Jewels.

C. Return to Cambridge. D. Go shopping.

3.The reason why they didn’t all meet for lunch was that _______.

A. They lost their way in the fog

B. they forgot to make necessary arrangement

C. they waited at different places and didn’t meet each other

D. the couple couldn’t find the underground station

4.It’s quite clear that for Joan the trip to London had been ________.

A. spilt by the fog B. quite tiring

C. rather disappointing D. very enjoyable

The smell of fresh air is becoming something of a distant memory, thanks to our increasing use of fragrance (香气). From air fresheners to scented (有香味的) candles, we live in a world of scent.

Recent figures show seven in ten people use air fresheners or scented candles to keep our homes smelling sweet. Yet recent records suggest that perfumed products could affect our health, causing problems including allergies (过敏), headaches and asthma (哮喘) .

One leading expert believes nearly a third of people suffer health effects from being exposed to scents. A major problem is so-called “contact” allergy—where perfumes and scented products cause eczema (湿疹) when they come into contact with the skin. About one in 20 is thought to be affected by fragrance allergy.

“Often it may not be immediately obvious that you have developed a fragrance allergy,” says Dr. Baron. “You don’t react immediately. Gradually, as you are exposed more and more, the body increases its reaction, until it becomes noticeable to you.”

People with pre-existing eczema are particularly vulnerable (易受影响). “The eczema worsens in areas in contact with perfumes,” says Dr. Baron. “But even those without allergies can be at risk of fragrance allergy.” You can become suddenly allergic to perfumes and personal care products that you have been using for years. “Even if you know which fragrance causes a problem, it can be difficult to avoid, as most personal care products –soap, shampoo, sun cream and washing powder—contain fragrances,” says Dr. Baron.

And strong scents can also cause headaches. Fragrances activate the nose’s nerve cells, stimulating the nerve system associated with head pain. To minimize risk, sufferers are advised to minimize the contact.

“Fragrance suggests cleanliness – yet people are smelling a potentially dangerous chemical mixture,” says Anne Steinemann, professor of the University of Washington. “We often use them to mask one problem – as with air fresheners – but create a greater one – adding poisonous chemicals to the air.”

1.What is the text mainly about?

A. The world trend of using fragrance.

B. The benefits of using non-fragranced products.

C. The health problems caused by fragrance.

D. The ways of removing allergy.

2.Which of the following questions does the text NOT answer?

A. Which products contain fragrance?

B. What’s the influence of fragrance in the air?

C. What are the air fresheners made up of?

D. How are headaches caused by fragrance?

3.According to Dr. Baron, .

A. our bodies have an immediate reaction to fragrance.

B. seven in ten have suffered fragrance allergy.

C. fragrance can affect people who don’t have allergy.

D. people can avoid contacting with fragrance easily.

4.The following paragraph might discuss .

A. the asthma caused by strong scents.

B. people’s efforts to protect fresh air.

C. the methods of curing eczema.

D. the bad effects of air fresheners.

Chocolate is good for your heart, skin and brain. Usually, people think that chocolate is bad for their health. They describe chocolate as “something to die for” or say “death by chocolate”. Now they should bite their tongues! Evidence is showing that some kinds of chocolate are actually good for you in the following ways:

A happier heart

Scientists at Harvard University recently examined 136 studies on cocoa— the main ingredient in chocolate— and found that it does seem to strengthen the heart. Studies have shown heart benefits from increased blood flow. These benefits are the result of cocoa’s chemicals, which seem to prevent both cell damage and inflammation(炎症)。

Better blood pressure

If yours is high, chocolate may help. Jeffrey Blumberg from Tufts University recently found that people with high blood pressure who ate 3.5 ounces of dark chocolate per day for two weeks saw their blood pressure drop quickly.

Muscle magic

Chocolate milk may help you recover after a hard workout(锻炼). In a small study at Indiana University, people who drank chocolate milk between workouts did better on a tiredness test than those who had some sports drinks.

Better for your skin

German researchers gave 24 women a half-cup of special cocoa every day. After three months, the women’s skin was moister and smoother. The research shows that chocolate helps protect and increase blood flow to the skin, improving its appearance.

Brain gains.

It sounds almost too good to be true, but research suggests that chocolate may improve your memory, attention span, reaction time, and problem-solving skills by increasing blood flow to the brain.

1.What’s the meaning of “bite their tongues” in the first paragraph?

A. Stop talking. B. Speak up.

C. Think of it. D. Listen to it.

2.What’s the meaning of the underlined sentence in the fourth paragraph?

A. Sports drinks are better than chocolate milk.

B. sports drinks can make people easy to be tired.

C. Drinking milk can keep you energetic at work.

D. we should drink chocolate milk between times when we work hard.

3.What’s the best title for this passage?

On a cold winter day in Denver, I waited in line to see my hero, Jack Canfield, the co-author of the best-selling Chicken Soup for the Soul series and the author of The Success Principles. What Jack had become was a version of what I wanted to be.

During his talk, Jack 1 his wallet, pulled out a hundred-dollar bill, and said, "Who wants this?"

Hnads shot up in the audience; people leaned forward to see whom Jack would choose. But I

ran up the stairs to the stage and grabbed the bill from his hand. He turned to me and said, “Yes, that’s it! Instead of waiting around for opportunities, simply take the initiative and create what we want!”

After this week, I asked for his personal e-mail address and sent him e-mail sharing my views and dreams. He kindly e-mailed back simple encouragement such as “Keep thinking and playing bigger; it’s much more fun that way. Love, Jack.” Then I got occupied with other things in life and I stopped e-mail Jack.

A year later, my dream gradually faded. I had this idea if I got back in touch with Jack. I e-mailed him again and again but got no response. As I sat down at my computer to check my e-mail for the fifth time in 15 minutes, an inspiration came like lighting: What was I doing? Was I waiting for the prize of life? I knew I needed to do something about all this waiting. I was going to write a book, which I would call “Waiting for Jack”!

It all sounded good, but then reality hit. Some nights I cried and wanted to give up. I wrote and rewrote. Even though I could feel the fear, I did it anyway. Fortunately, three years later, Waiting for Jack turns out a best-seller on Amazon!

We all have a “Jack” for whom we wait—whether it’s a person, a place or a thing. Now I would like to ask you: what are you waiting for?

1.From the first paragraph we can learn that the author _________.

A. wanted Jack to autograph her book

B. wanted to be as successful as Jack

C. wanted to make friends with Jack

D. wanted to get help from Jack

2.It can be inferred from the passage that Jack Canfield is probably a person who ________.

A. enjoys playing a lot

B. likes showing off his wealth

C. seldom takes risks

D. welcomes challenges in life

3.How did the author lose contact with Jack?

A. She and Jack had an argument

B. She had no time to contact Jack

C. Jack was too proud to get along with

D. She was too upset with her broken dream

4. What might be the theme of the book Waiting for Jack?

A. The disappointment of waiting for her hero Jack

B. The need to keep waiting for the prize of our life

C. The importance of taking action to achieve a goal

D. The harm of blindly worshipping others as heroes
