【答案】Dear Christina,
I’m Li Hua, Drama Night is scheduled to be held on the evening of next Friday in the theatre hall. I’m writing to invite you to join us.
To keep the tradition alive, the local opera is listed as one of the selective courses in our school. Some famous artists, including Mr. Li, who has been devoted to Beijing Opera for twenty years and experienced in it. have been invited to put on performances from 7pm to 9pm. I think it is a good chance to appreciate local operas, which surely help you learn more about Chinese local culture. I hope you can come and have fun with us.
I would appreciate it if you could give me an early reply.
Yours faithfully,
Li Hua

【题目】七选五
A. Healthy way of life giving way to overuse of medicine |
(1)
The use of health supplements such as multivitamin tablets has increased greatly in the western world. People take these supplements because advertising suggests that they prevent a range of medical conditions from developing. However, there is concern that people are consuming worryingly high doses of these supplements and the European Union (EU) has issued a directive that will ban the sale of a wide range of them. This EU directive should be supported.
2
Research suggests that people who take Vitamin C supplements of over 5000 milligrams a day are more likely to develop cancer. This shows how much damage these health supplements do to people’s health. A spokesman for the health supplement industry has argued that other research shows that Vitamin C supplements help prevent heart disease, but we can dismiss this evidence as it is from a biased source.
3
Science fiction of the 1960s and 1970s predicted that pills would replace meals as the way in which people would get the fuel they needed. This, it was argued, would mean a more efficient use of time as people wouldn’t have to waste it preparing or eating meals. The EU directive would help prevent this nightmare of pills replacing food becoming a reality.
4
Peop0le already take too many pills instead of adopting a healthier lifestyle. For example, the consumption of painkillers in Britain in 1998 was 21 tablets per year for every man, woman and child in the country. People do not need all these pills.
5
Some might argue that the EU directive denies people’s right to freedom of choice. However, there are many legal examples for such intervention when it is in the individual’s best interests. We now make people wear seatbelts rather than allowing them to choose to do so. Opposing the EU directive would mean beneficial measures like this would be threatened.
