Dear Jack,

Next Saturday will my birthday. I’m going to hold a birthday party at home on the evening. It will start at 7:30. Some classmates as good as some foreign friends have been invited. The activities include singing, dancing and sharing interesting experiences. Surely, we’ll have a good time. I would feel honoring if you could come. I live at 656 Minzu Street. You can take Bus No. 11 or No. 15 and got off at the stop of Guang Ming High School. Justly on the opposite side is my house, what is red with a white door. I’m sure of you can’t miss it. I do hope they will come.

Best wish.

Yours,

LiHua

When I was a child, I had to go to church and obey many other rules, though these rules at times caused resentment (怨恨). Perhaps the most extreme parenting decision my parents made for my four brothers and sisters and me was to create a home environment without a television.

We hated this decision at that time, because there was seemingly no way to keep this embarrassing fact a secret at school. Naturally, simple pleasures like cartoons, football games, and movies became huge novelties (新奇事物). I would go over to friends’ or relatives’ houses for that access alone.

When I reached high school, my parents bought a television, though it had no cable. However, I did spend most of my childhood in a home without a television. In fact not having a television did contribute a great deal to my skills, and it also forced me to develop other valuable interests. We grew up in a small town, so my brothers and sisters and I spent time exploring streets, fields and woods. And of course I read and wrote and studied, which pushed me toward a career path.

So would I give a similar situation to my own children if I had them? I doubt it, at least not in the most extreme sense. I’m too much of a football fan, not to mention the TV serials (连续剧) like The Wire. But television or almost anything for that matter is unhealthy for kids. It can prevent them from living a full life. So maybe a reasonable answer is no cable or no video-game systems or simply setting the time limit, but I haven’t exactly worked out how to confine it yet. Although some people are against my idea, we do need limits after all.

1.From the text we can learn that ________.

A. the author didn’t like watching TV as a child

B. the author’s family seldom went to church

C. not having a TV set brought the author many benefits

D. few homes had a TV set when the author was a child

2.From the last paragraph we can learn the author thinks that ________.

A. children shouldn’t watch TV too much

B. children should be forbidden to watch TV

C. children should only watch serials and sports on TV

D. watching TV is unhealthy for both adults and children

3.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “confine” in the last paragraph?

A. Limit.B. Punish.C. Reject.D. Support.

A. will be completedB. is completed

Everyone has a childhood. And childhood 1. (experience) are often very funny. Children often make us laugh. It’s true that children brighten up a home. They never turn off the lights.

I often recall my childhood, the years 2. many interesting things happened. When I was a two-year-old child, 3. my parents were always very busy with their work. My mother worked 4. a sales manager in a company 5. my father served in the army. So I lived with my grandma in a village. I was always waiting for my parents at home. Once my father sent us a photo of his 6. (dress) in a soldier’s uniform 7. was posted on the table reminding me of him.

Once my mother came to see me and we went 8. (shop) together. On the way we saw a group of soldiers. And when I saw them, I became 9. (excite). I said in a ringing voice pointing to 10. , “This is my father, and this is my father, and that is my father, too!”

The kindly “Chinese Fortune Grandpa” wearing Han Chinese clothing and holding a fortune bag debuted （亮相） at the Imperial Ancestral Shrine in Beijing on the day after Christmas. The final image of the Chinese gift-giver was selected through a global design competition against “Santa Claus”, according to a report by Guangming Daily.

Many Chinese cities have been filled with Christmas neon lights, Christmas songs, Christmas trees, and the images of “Santa Claus”in recent days. As a matter of fact, foreign festivals are becoming more popular than certain traditional Chinese festivals among the Chinese people, particularly the youth. “Certain traditional festivals have died out because people have forgotten their spiritual meanings, ”said noted writer Feng Jicai. More and more Chinese people are beginning to exchange gifts on Valentine's Day and Christmas. However, many of them know nothing about Chinese New Year pictures or sugarcoated figurines（小糖人）, and have never heard suona music. Certain folk customs on the Dragon Boat Festival, Tomb Sweeping Day, and other traditional festivals have gradually disappeared. Under such circumstances, even the “Chinese Fortune Grandpa” is unlikely to defeat “Santa Claus”.

However, it is not a bad thing to some extent. It constantly reminds people to restore the “true face” of traditional festivals. China has listed traditional Tomb Sweeping Day, Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival as legal holidays, which brings more paid leaves to the public, and helps to awake the public awareness of traditional festivals.

In modern society, festival is a carrier of culture and its meaning largely depends on their understandings and usages by people. Compared with foreign festivals, traditional Chinese festivals are not inferior （次于） in cultural meanings, but lack of fashion sought by modern people. If people do not appreciate the historical culture contained by traditional festivals, and only take pleasure-seeking as the most important, the significance of traditional festivals will fade away and the inheritance （继承） of fine traditional culture will be cut off.

1.The second paragraph implies that ________.

A. traditional festivals should co-exist with foreign festivals

B. all the Chinese festivals are disappearing in the near future

C. western festivals are constantly impacting on our festivals

D. the Chinese people have the public awareness of traditional festivals

2.We can learn from the passage that ________.

A. an image designed by the Chinese people will be displayed

B. the Chinese gift-giver was intended to symbolize traditional culture

C. many foreigners know nothing about Chinese festivals

D. the Chinese are beginning to exchange gifts on the Mid-Autumn Festival

3.Many Chinese youth dislike traditional festivals because they think ________.

A. traditional festivals are out of fashion now

B. the historical culture is more difficult to understand

C. western festivals contain more cultural meanings

D. the inheritance will cut off their contact with western festivals

4.What would be the best title of the passage?

A. Gone are Chinese Traditional Festivals

B. True Face of Chinese Traditional Culture

C. Foreign Festivals Popular with Chinese

D. Chinese Fortune Grandpa VS. Santa Claus
