Dear Sir,

How are everything going? I am writing to tell you that I have made a lot of progresses. But I would prefer to moving into a single room in next term, as I find it inconvenient(²»±ãµÄ) to share a room with others. My roommate often held parties at night, making much noise. Besides, his friends are always visiting him, that disturbs me a lot. So I hope to draw your attention to this problem. I am surely you will agree that the only solution for I is to get a room of my own, one not in the same building and as near to the school campus as possible. I would appreciate very much if you could do me the favor.

Best wishes.

Yours sincerely,

Li Ming

After Steve Jobs died£¬his friend Larry Ellison said something like this, ¡°There will never be another Steve Jobs¡±. 1._ Larry wrote this list of Steve's life lessons to remind us all.

1. Love what you do. Sure Steve became a billionaire when he brought Apple back. Apple was his calling even after he got fired from the company. We all have bad jobs at one point in our lives. But the question is: am I in the right job? Have I found the right company? Life doesn¡¯t go on forever. 2._

2. Don't do it all by yourself.

Steve learned a great leader can't do it all by himself. He needs people. They must be talented. 3._ They must be given the opportunity to succeed and fail. In short£¬we have to learn to be a great leader if we want to see our great ideas and hard work truly have an influence on the world.

3. 4._

Apple is always good at creating a new product that meets the exact needs of users. It¡¯s empathy£¨¹²Ãù£© that helps Apple achieve this. Whenever the user has the first touch with a new Apple product£¬he says "Wow£¬it's just what I need". Remember, you're King in the business world if you know exactly what consumers desire.

4. Don't mess around with your health.

5._ That's the most important lesson from Steve's life. It's great to learn from him but£¬the fact is he should still be here if he had treated his cancer properly. Instead, Steve chose a naturopathic(×ÔÈ»ÁÆ·¨) solution that wasn't effective. When he finally decided to take his doctor's original advice£¬it was too late.

A. Get on our right path now.

B. What are the key things that we could learn from him?

C. Will this lead to a successful career?

D. They must be inspired.

E. Take your health seriously.

F. Put yourself in the other person's shoes.

G. Be the best in your field.

Expensive perfumes (ÏãË®) come in tiny bottles, but many hide a whale-sized secret.

To perfect a particular smell, perfume-makers often use an ingredient that comes from sperm whales, called ambergris (ÁúÏÑÏã). But using ambergris, which helps a perfume last longer, is strongly opposed by many people who think it is wrong to kill whales just so we can smell sweet. Joerg Bohlmann is neither a perfumer nor a whale expert. He's a plant biologist at the University of British Columbia in Canada. But his discovery of a new plant gene (»ùÒò) might push whales out of the perfume business.

The gene comes from fir trees, found throughout North America and commonly used as Christmas trees. The trees produce a chemical that can be used in perfume in place of ambergris-but with a catch. "There's a problem that many people wouldn't consider. In the tree, the chemical is mixed with many others. That makes separation a challenge," Bohlmann says. "lt's like trying to isolate sugar from a biscuit. "

This is where science becomes useful. When Bohlmann learned that fir trees produce the ambergris-like chemical, he decided to use his gene know-how to find the instructions for how to make the ambergris-substitute.

Bohlmann found that gene and took it out of the tree cells. Then he did something that might sound strange to someone who doesn't work in genetics: Bohlmann put the gene from the tree into yeast (½Íĸ) cells.

Yeast may sound familiar because it's used to make things like bread, wine and beer. Biologists like to work with yeast because it easily adopts new genes and changes its features and behaviour. When Bohlmann put the fir tree gene into the yeast, the yeast started making the same chemical that had been produced by the tree.

Perfumers pay big money for ambergris because it is a fixative, which means it holds a smell in place on a person's body.

"Cheap perfumes smell good in the first hour or so and then everything is gone," explains Bohlmann. "But expensive perfumes are much more stable. Their smell lasts much longer, for hours or even a day after you apply them. "

The new chemical, made from the tree genes, can be used as a fixative, too. And using yeast to make it is far cheaper than acquiring ambergris.

Bohlmann admits he never thought he'd get into the perfume business. But now, he says, producers have been calling to find out how to use his technology in new perfumes.

1. It can be inferred from the passage that if a perfume contains ambergris, .

A. its user probably supports whale hunting

B. it is probably very expensive

C. its smell will last for about an hour

D. there will be a whale symbol on the bottle

2.The underlined expression "with a catch" in Paragraph 3 means____.

A. being difficult to hold

B. being too similar

C. having a hidden problem

D. needing further testing

3. According to the passage, why are yeast cells often used in genetic research?

A. They're much cheaper to use than ambergris.

B. They can reproduce much faster than other cells.

C. They share some of the qualities of plant genes.

D. They can take on the characteristics of other genes.

4.What can we learn about Joerg Bohlmann from the passage?

A. He is opposed to whale hunting.

B. He made his discovery during Christmas.

C. He has worked in the perfume industry for many years.

D. He has previously done genetic research.

Your school asked parents about the social development in children in the last Parents¡¯ Meeting. Here are some opinions. Read following information and answer the questions.

Parent 1: Social development in children is an important part of childhood. Social activities can help enhance children¡¯s social abilities and make them more confident.

Parent 3: Many ball games are a great way to encourage children to communicate with other kids. It¡¯s a good idea for them to play basketball or football together. They can learn teamwork.

Parent 2: Social development should begin at a very young age. It is important for young children before starting school. Playing with other children can help them get skills needed to make friends.

School headmaster: Parents should try to allow children to deal with the situation on their own first. Children can learn what works and what doesn¡¯t work from their failures, which help children act properly in the future¡¯s society.

1.The underlined word, ¡°enhance¡±, can be replaced by ________.

A. spendB. improveC. expectD. handle

2.What kind of activities may be supported by the third parent for his/her children?

A. Playing basketball with friends.

B. Playing computer games.

C. Holding parties at home.

D. Watching TV alone.

3.Which is NOT the advantage from social development according to these parents and headmaster¡¯s opinions?

A. Children become more confident.

B. Children get skills needed to make new friends.

C. Children learn teamwork.

D. Children are afraid of making mistakes.

One form of social prejudice against older people is the belief that they cannot understand or use modern technology. Activities like playing computer games, going on the Net and downloading MP3s are only for the youngsters. Isn¡¯t it unfair that older people enjoying a computer game should be frowned(Öåü) upon by their children and grandchildren?

Nowadays older people have more control over their lives and they play a full part in society. Moreover, better health care has left more people in their sixties and seventies feeling fit and active after retirement. Mental activity, as well as physical exercise, can contribute to better health. Playing computer games is a very effective way of exercising the brain.

When personal computers were first introduced, most older people didn¡¯t believe they would ever familiarize themselves with it. Now computers have been around for a few generations and retired people have gradually become more relaxed about using them for fun. Gamers over 65 prefer playing puzzle games and card games. Kate Stevens, aged 72, says: ¡°I find it very relaxing. It¡¯s not very demanding, but you still need to concentrate.¡±

Another development that has favored ¡°grey games¡± is a change in the type of videogames available on the market. There¡¯s a greater variety of games to choose from, including more intellectual and complex strategy(²ßÂÔ) and simulation(Ä£Äâ) games. Internet Chess and Train Simulator are among the most popular of these. Train Simulator is based on real-world rail activities. Players can choose from a variety of challenges, such as keeping to a strict-timetable and using helper engines during a winter storm.

Some people argue that ¡°grey gamers¡± simply don¡¯t have the skills required for computer games, and that teenagers are better. This couldn¡¯t be further from the truth. Most computer games require the kind of analytical thinking that improves with practice, which means that the ¡°grey gamers¡± may well be far better than gamers half a century younger than them. In games where speed is the main consideration, older people would be at a disadvantage because they may have slower reaction times. On the other hand, ¡°grey gamers¡± have a preference for slower paced, mind challenging games.

1.The second paragraph is intended to ________.

A. show the best way to exercise the brain

B. stress the importance of good health

C. explain why grey gamers exist

D. teach how to play videogames

2.What was older people¡¯s attitude towards personal computers at first?

A. Doubtful.B. Concerned.C. Enthusiastic.D. Supportive.

3.The method the author uses to develop Paragraph 4 is ________.

A. offering analysesB. giving examples

C. making comparisonsD. providing details

4.By saying ¡°This couldn¡¯t be further from the truth.¡± in Paragraph 5, the author means ________.

A. mind challenging games are not suitable for older people

B. children should improve their skills with practice

C. playing computer games requires analytical thinking

D. older people can perform well in some computer games

What should we do when we are in a bad situation? Some may choose to give up. But is that what we should do? The following news report may get you encouraged.

With a population of 156 million, Bangladesh has one of the largest populations in the world. What makes the situation worse is that most of the country is situated on the low-lying Ganges delta(Èý½ÇÖÞ). As a result, it often suffers flooding, especially during the rainy season from July to October. In this period, the rivers rise as much as 12 feet. In such situations, people can only get to certain places by boat.

The problems are particularly serious in the Chalanbeel region, a poor area where people survive by farming on the rich delta soil when it is not underwater. But many parents there don¡¯t want to send their children to school and there are not enough teachers. As a result, many kids living there do not attend school on a regular basis. The problem becomes worse during the rainy season when land schools cannot be reached. Many students never return to school after the forced breaks.

How to help students attend school regularly? 22-year-old Bangladeshi architect Mohammed Rezwan decided to take action. In 2002, the young man used $500 he had received in scholarships to start Shidhulai Swanirvar Sangstha. The non-profit organization¡¯s mission was to set up floating schools. It took Rezwan four years to raise enough funds to open his first boat school. But as the world began to know about the organization¡¯s worthy cause, money started to pour in. Until now, Shidhulai Swanirvar Sangstha has built 22 floating schools, some with playgrounds on the upper deck. Now a lot more children in the Chalanbeel region go to school regularly.

We should keep in mind that there is always a solution to every problem.

2.It is implied in Paragraph 3 that in the Chalanbeel region, ________.

A. children can¡¯t receive a good education

B. farmers don¡¯t have rich soil to grow crops

C. parents consider education very important

D. teachers lose jobs as there aren¡¯t enough students

3.Knowing about the cause of Mohammed Rezwan¡¯s organization, many people ________.

A. realized education is very important

B. decided to do what they could to help

C. didn¡¯t think his idea could be carried out
