【题目】Last year,around Labor Day,I read a " Happy Ad" in our local newspaper.There was a lady in a local nursing home for the aged,who was celebrating her 90th birthday and her family wanted everyone to know about it.It said that if you wanted to drop her a line,here was her address.So I did.I found a birthday card and dropped her a short note,wishing her a happy birthday.

【题目】A “Gap Year” is a period of time when a student takes a break before going to university. It is often spent traveling or working. It can give young people useful learning experiences and new skills. It's very popular in foreign countries.

【1】

Although you don't have to go abroad to experience gap years, most gap year students catch the chance to travel abroad. You are able to work out who you are and what you are for. The experiences of different cultures offer you interesting lessons. You can learn more about the world and get to know yourself better.

【2】

A gap year is not only a time to take a vacation, but also a time of challenges. Gap year students usually work, volunteer or take service projects. You have to learn how to get along in the real world. This process isn't always easy, but it is an important part of growing up. Only in this way can you enjoy life and have fun.

【3】

There's a common thought that gap years are only for rich students, but it's not true. Actually, taking a gap year can save you a lot of money. Gap year students often take a parttime job. Besides, at the end of a gap year, students are much more likely to know what to study in college. Clear learning goals can keep the students working hard instead of wasting time and money.

A. Learn about the world and yourself.

B. Save money.

C. Find a parttime job.

D. Face challenges and have fun.

【题目】Restaurants in Miami Beach

Steve’s Pizza

So many pizza chains compete for the attention of tourists in South Beach, but ask a Miami Beach local where to get the best pizza and they’ll tell you about Steve’s. This is New York style pizza, handmade with care and good ingredients(成分). New branches of Steve’s Pizza are opening elsewhere in Miami, all in non-tourist areas.

Opening hours: 11 a.m.－10a.m.

Cattleman’s Steakhouse

This place is 20 miles east of the city, but local folks would probably drive 200 miles to eat here. The food is good, and the scenery is even better. Come early and wander around the grounds of Indian Cliffs Ranch, where you’ll see everything from rabbits to buffalo (水牛), then catch the sunset either before or after your meal.

Opening hours: 5p.m.－10p.m.

Absolute Baking & Café

The screen door is always swinging open at this town hot spot with giant breakfasts. Try the green chili on eggs – it’s made from scratch, as are the organic(有机的) breads. Lunch includes salads, big sandwiches and local grass-fed beef burgers. Don’t miss a square of soft, fresh carrot cake.

Opening hours: 7a.m.－2p.m.

Walt’s Wharf

Everybody’s favorite for fresh fish (some drive in from LA). Walt’s packs them in on weekends. You can’t make reservations for dinner (though they’re accepted for lunch), but it’s worth the wait for the tree fire–grilled seafood and steaks in the many-windowed ground floor or upstairs in captain’s chairs.

Opening hours: 11a.m.－10:30p.m.

【1】The new branches of Steve’s Pizza are mainly intended for ______.

A. New Yorkers B. tourists

C. the locals D. foreigners

【2】Cattleman’s Steakhouse offers the wonderful ______ as well as good food.

【题目】I was born at Blunderstone, in Suffolk, in the east of England, and was given my poor father’s name, David Copperfield. Sadly, he never saw me and died six months before I was born. My early childhood was extremely happy, as my beautiful mother and kind Peggotty took care of me. But when I was about eight, a shadow passed over my happiness. My mother often went out walking, in her best clothes, with a gentleman called Mr Murdstone. He seemed to be very fond of my mother. But I knew that Peggotty did not like him.

A few months later Peggotty told me that my mother was going to have a short holiday with some friends. Meanwhile Peggotty and I would go to stay with her brother Daniel in Yarmouth，on the east coast, for two weeks. I spent a wonderfully happy two weeks there, playing all day on the beach with Emily, and sleeping in my own little bed on the ship. I am sure I was in love with little Emily in my childish way, and I cried bitterly when we had to say goodbye at the end of the holiday.

But on the way home to Blunderstone, Peggotty looked at me very worriedly. ‘she said suddenly in a trembling voice.‘I must tell you—While we’ve been away, your dear mother—has married Mr Murdstone！He’s your stepfather now!’

I was deeply shocked. I could not understand how my mother could have married that man. And when we arrived home, I went straight to my room and lay sobbing on my bed, which made my poor mother very unhappy too. As she sat beside me, holding my hand, Mr Murdstone suddenly came in.

What’s this, Chara, my love?’ he asked sternly. ‘Remember, you must be firm with the boy！I’ve told you before, you’re too weak with him!’ And when mother left the room, Mr Murdstone whispered angrily to me, ‘David, do you know what I’ll do if you don’t obey me？I’ll beat you like a dog!’ I was still very young, and I was very frightened of him. If he had said one kind word to me, perhaps I would have liked and trusted him, and my life would have been different. Instead, I hated him for the influence he had over my dear mother, who wanted to be kind to me, but also wanted to please her new husband．

【1】According to the passage, what ended David’s happy childhood?

A. His father’s death.

B. Peggotty’s ignorance of him.

C. His mother’s acquaintance with Mr.Murdstone.

D. Mr.Murdstone’s love to his mother.

【2】What’s the author’s tone in writing the underlined sentences in P2?

A. Serious. B. Humorous.

C. Sad. D. Regretful.

【3】How did David think about Mr.Murdstone?

A. Strict and firm. B. Sensible and caring.

C. Gentle and helpful. D. Mean and unkind.

【4】According to the passage, what’s most likely to be mentioned in the follwing part?

A. Peggotty’s help to David. B. Mr.Murdstone’s cruelty to David.

C. David’s fights against Mr.Murdstone. D. David’s love to mother.

【题目】 No one knows for certain how the first Americans arrived in _____ is now the United States.

A. which B. what

C. where D. why

【题目】Do you like trying different things? Are you afraid 【1】 things that you think you’re bad at?

Last year I started to learn t’ at chi in order to improve my health and reduce my stress. It was something new for me, and I found it to be quite difficult, very 【2】 (difference) form anything I’d ever learned before. Small 【3】move） are important in t’ ai chi. I was used to being fast and active ,【4】 to learn t’ ai chi I had to learn patience. Now I’ve found that I’m a much more patient person than before, and t’ ai chi isn’t nearly as difficult as it 【5】(be ) before.

We tend 【6】(like) things we are good at — that’s normal. For example, I’m naturally very good at badminton and tennis, but I’m very had at anything 【7】involves keeping balance, such as skating, skiing and gymnastics. T’ ai chi has 【8】 (great) improved my balance which has been a very good thing for me.

My point is that you can keep 【9】(do) the things you know you’re good at and live in your comfort zone, or you can try something new. If you don’t try new things, you’ll never know what it would be like to try something new. Challenge 【10】 (you). It will definitely pay off in the end.
