Students in our school have held a heated discussion about whether it is necessary to hold parties to celebrate different festivals.Opinions vary from person to person.Some students are in favor of the activities,which they think make their after-class life colorful and thus relieve some study pressure.(高分句型1)Besides,not only does holding activities help them know each other better but it improves their abilities.What's more,some can display themselves and earn respect.(赞成及其原因)
However,some students hold a different view.Firstly,it will take a lot of time to rehearse,which affects their study.Secondly,the list of performance is limited and only a small number of students have the opportunity to take part in it.Thirdly,a lot of waste is produced after the activity,which is harmful to the environment.(反对及其原因)
Personally,I think it is good to hold parties,in which I can always enjoy myself and get relaxed.(高分句型2)At the same time,our classmates may have a really great time by enjoying my performance.(作者的看法及原因).
6.MultitaskingWhat is the first thing you notice when you walk into a shop?The products displayed (展示) at the entrance?Or the soft background music?
But have you ever notice the smell?Unless it is bad,the answer is likely to be no.But while a shop's scent may not be outstanding compared with sights and sounds,it is certainly there.And it is providing to be an increasing powerful tool in encouraging people to purchase.
A brand store has become famous for its distinctive scent which floats through the fairly dark hall and out to the entrance,via scent machines.A smell may be attractive but it may not just be used for freshening air.One sports goods company once reported that when it first introduced scent into its stores,customers'intension to purchase increased by 80 percent.
When it comes to the best shopping streets in Pairs,scent is just as important to a brand's success as the quality of its window displays and goods on sales.That is mainly because shopping is a very different experience to what it used to be.
Some years ago,the focus for brand name shopping was on a few people with sales assistants'disproving attitude and don't-touch-what-you-can't-afford displays.Now the rise of electronic commerce (e-commerce) has opened up famous brands to a wider audience.But while e-shops can use sights and sounds,only bricks-and-mortar stores (实体店) can offer a full experience from the minute customers step through the door to the moment they leave.Another brand store seeks to be much more than a shop,but rather a destination.And scent is just one way to achieve this.
Now a famous store uses complex man-made smell to make sure that the soft scent of baby powder floats through the kid department,and coconut (椰子) scent in the swimsuit section.A department store has even opened a new lab,inviting customers on a journey into the store's windows to smell books,pots and drawers,in search of their perfect scent.

14.It was the summer of my first year at college.Instead of heading home for a nice long(36)C,three of my friends and I had decided to stay and take some(37)Bcourses.The four of us had(38)Dthe top floor of an old house to live in.My own bed was jammed into a smelly former laundry room and each night was a new adventure in humidity(湿气).(39)B,it felt exciting to be out of the dorms and in my own place for the first time.After the first few weeks,though,the(40)Dfaded and homesickness set in.I found myself sitting(41)C in my sweaty bedroom each night thinking of my home,my Mom,and my Dad.My summers had always been a(42)Atime.I spent hours riding my bike,playing basketball and swimming.I sat on the porch(走廊) and talked to my Mom while she(43)Bher flowers.I took pride in helping my Dad gather firewood(44)Bthe winter.And every night I sat at a dinner table full of delicious food(45)Awith love while my family(46)Athe dining-room with sweet laughter.Now I found myself(47)Bthem more than ever.
Finally when my spirits were at their(48)CI heard a knock at the door.I opened it and was(49)Dto see Mom and Dad standing there with big smiles to fill my(50)Dheart and a box full of food to(51)Amy hungry friends.We spent the(52)Ceating,chatting,and just being together.It felt so good,and I felt so(53)D.Just as Victor Hugo put it,"The (54)Chappiness of life is the conviction(确信) that one is loved."It was that(55)Aof happiness that my Mom an Dad gave me that afternoon and every day of my life.

11.Why does gratitude matter?
Gratitude doesn't just feel good.(36)DLike other positive emotions,feeling grateful on a regular basis can have a big effect on our lives.Brain Research shows that positive emotions are good for our bodies,minds,and brains.
Positive emotions help us see more possibilities and take in more information.They increase our ability to develop skills.(37)E
Positive emotions balance negative emotions out.People who often feel grateful and appreciative are happier,less stressed,and less depressed.Gratitude is like a U-turn on complaining or thinking about what we don't have.(38)BWhen we feel grateful,we might also feel happy,calm,joyful,or glad.
Gratitude can lead to positive actions.When we feel grateful for someone's kindness towards us,we may be more likely to do a kindness in return.(39)GThanking people can make it more likely that they'll do a kindness again.
(40)CWhen we feel and express heartfelt gratitude and appreciation to people in our lives,it creates loving bonds,builds trust,and helps you feel closer.
When we make it a habit to feel grateful and appreciative,it increases our awareness of good things as they happen.That set of attitude of gratitude has positive effects on our mood.

A.It might make you suffer a lot.
B.One positive emotion often leads to another.
C.Gratitude helps us build better relationships.
D.Making a habit of gratitude can also be good for us.
E.In addition,they help us to learn and make good decisions.
F.Find out who you appreciate and what the reasons might be.
G.Your gratitude also can have a positive effect on someone else's actions.
15.What are consequences of laziness?Many young persons seem to think it of not much consequence(21)Cthey do not improve their time well in youth,vainly(22)Athey can make it up by careful work or effort when they are(23)A.They also think it is shameful for men and women to be lazy,(24)Bthat there can be no harm in persons who are young spending their time in any(25)Cthey please.
George Jones thought(26)A.At the age of 16,he went to an academy to prepare to enter college.His father obtained books for him,clothed him,and paid for schooling at his great(27)D.But George thought of nothing but present(28)B.When called to recite,he went red and what he recited were not the right words,(29)Athe whole class would burst into laughter.Such are the applauses(掌声)a lazy person gets.(30)C,though he passed a very poor examination,he was(31)Dwith the test.It was those who(32)Bhim that thought it was possible that the reason why he didn't(33)Bquestions better was that he was frightened.
However,there is not much(34)Dshown to bad scholars in college.George had(35)Ahis studies so long that he fell behind.Poor fellow!He paid(36)Dfor his laziness.All the good scholars(37)Chim; they were ashamed to be seen in his(38)B.He was growing discouraged.Eventually,he had to quit college.Such are the(39)Dof laziness.
Therefore,we should,from this history,take(40)C,and"stamp improvement on the wings of time".
