October 15
Mr and Mrs Fred Deacon 1442 Saddleback Road Mesa,AX 85205 Dear Mr and Mrs Fred Deacon,
I am writing this letter to congratulate you on your new purchase of a house in the Dobson Ranch area.We feel that this is one of the best neighborhoods of high quality in the city of Mesa,and we are happy to be able to call you neighbors.
For your information,there are a few things we would like to tell you.One is that there are certain duties that go with living in Dobson Ranch.In order to keep property (房地产) values at the highest possible levels,we insist that everyone who lives in Dobson Ranch take care of their property.This means that the grass needs to be cut regularly,branches of the trees and bushes should be cut off,and there should be no unattractive additions to houses,nor should houses be painted in colors like red or blue.If you want to make any additions to your house,you need our permission first.
The people of Dobson Ranch also have monthly meetings to discuss various issues of concern in our community.You are welcome to attend.We typically hold meetings on the first Saturday of every month at 7:00 PM at the Dobson Ranch Community Center.You will receive a notice via e-mail a few days before every meeting as a reminder.We hope that you will join us as much as you see fit.
Again,welcome to the neighborhood,and I look forward to meeting you soon.
Sincerely
Juan Sanchez
President
Dobson Ranch Housing Association
October 20 Dear Mr Sanchez,
Thank yo u very much for your letter welcoming us to the neighborhood.My wife and I appreciate your concern,and we also appreciate you letting us know about the various rules that apply to this neighborhood.Please do not worry about us.No matter where we live,we always try to be neighbors taking care to do our work properly.We too are well aware of property values.To be honest,we are actually pleased that there are regulations that must be obeyed.In the past,we have had neighbors who have not taken care of their homes and yards; at least we know that we will not have to worry about that here.
As for the meetings,thank you for your kind invitation,but tm afraid that you probably won't see us too often.My work takes me out of town,so when I,m not traveling,I prefer to stay home.Similarly,my wife works long hours at the hospital and prefers to spend her days off relaxing at home.However,if we have the time,we will try to make it to a meeting.Again,thank you for welcoming us.
Sincerely Fred Deacon

5.There was once a group of monks(和尚) who went to Australia to spread Buddhism.Everything had to be started from the beginning.After buying a plot of land,they bought bricks,construction materials and with their own hands,they started to build a temple.
A young monk took charge of building the brick wall.He took great care in laying the bricks,ensuring that they were leveled.His progress was slow,due to the great care in his work,but he wasn't bothered,.Finally,when he completed the wall,something caught his eye and made him angry.Despite the great care he took in his work,he had overlooked two bricks that were laid slanted(倾斜).Because of that,whenever visitors came to the temple,the young monk would show them around to all places,except the brick wall that he had built.
One day,two elderly monks came to the temple.No matter how the young monk tried to bypass the brick wall,the old monks insisted on touring the area around that brick wall.Unwillingly,the young monk brought the elders to the brick wall.
"Oh,this is such a beautiful brick wall,"one of the elderly monks said."Sir,are you sure?Haven't you seen the two ugly bricks that are slanted in the middle of the wall?"the young monk asked in surprise."Yes,I have."replied the elderly monk."But I also saw the remaining 98good bricks that made this a beautiful wall!"
You see,most of the time,we focus on things that went wrong or didn't live to our expectations.However,we've forgotten the fact that they are only two bad bricks in the wall and we should not overlook the beauty of the remaining 98bricks.
21.What lesson can we learn from the story?C
A.Grasp all,lose all.
B.It is no use crying over spilt milk.
C.Don't miss the forest for the trees.
D.No sweat,no sweet.
22.Which of the following words can best describe the young monk when he built the brick wallA
A.Careful and patient.
B.Lazy and careless.
C.Hard-working but impatient.
D.Upset and worried.
23.What did the elderly monk think of the wall built by the young monk?B
A.He thought it was not firm.
B.He thought highly of it.

1.For most Americans queuing for 30minutes outside of Xi'an Famous Foods in Manhattan,New York,Xi'an is a remote,mysterious place in China.But that doesn't stop them from enjoying the Shaanxi provincial capital's fine foods-including signature dishes roujiamo,a lamb sandwich or burger,"cold skin"noodles (凉皮)and yangrou paomo,a lamb soup with pieces of bread in it.
So what is the store's secret to winning such high popularity?
Owner Jason Wang offers a hint based on his experience growing up in the US.Many Americans are looking not just for a particular type of food,he has noticed,but rather for authenticity (真实性).With a global food culture,Manhattan now is full of young people craving adventurous food experiences.They"hunt down authentic cuisine,whether it is Chinese,Mexican,American or Mediterranean",Wang told Forbes.
Chinese cuisine has long been part of the US culinary(烹饪的)landscape."The trend of trying authentic Chinese food started in New York a long time ago,"said Sam Sifton,restaurant critic of The New York Times.
Many Xi'an dishes are quite easy for Americans to love."The lamb sandwich may have‘authentic,local'taste for some Chinese,but it's also familiar to Americans as a form of hamburger,"Sifton said."We love the English-muffin-style bread and the loose,packable meat,spicy and rich."
Hagan Blount,a food critic from Las Vegas,thinks that it's the trend in general for Americans to explore different foreign cuisines.
"Everyone wants to have new and exciting experiences-one way to get that hunger for adventure satisfied is by exploring new cuisines,"he told China Daily."The more people know,the less they are afraid."

63.What is the author's purpose in writing the article?B
A.To promote Chinese food culture among Americans.
B.To explain why food from Xi'an has been well-received in Manhattan.
C.To analyze why Americans like to explore new cuisines.
D.To tell the story of how Jason Wang started Xi'an Famous Foods in Manhattan.
64.According to Jason Wang,many AmericansB.
A.know a lot about Chinese food culture
B.attach great importance to the authenticity of food
C.prefer Chinese cuisine to other foreign cuisines
D.think Chinese cuisine has influenced American cuisine a lot
65.The underlined word"craving"in Paragraph 3 probably meansD.
A.refusingB.reportingC.being afraid of           D.longing for
66.What can we conclude from the article?C
A.Chinese cuisine has a lot in common with American cuisine.
B.To attract local people,the lamb sandwich has been changed into a form of hamburger in America.
C.Those who love to explore different types of cuisines tend to be more adventurous.
D.Those who enjoy exploring different cuisines usually prefer to cook for themselves.
