As the big weekend approaches, my feelings about you and your marriage are personal and it’s more   36  to me that you realize how much I love you and how   37  I am of the amazing woman you have become.
My memory for details is terrible,   38  my memory for how   39  you were as a child is vivid. I loved tossing (轻扔) you   40  in the air in the pool in Marine, and reading   41  books on the floor of the Denver book store with you on my knees.  
When I think of you as an adult, it is your   42  that has led you to your vegetarian lifestyle. It is your heart that helps you care for family and friends   43 . For these   44  I have selected three hearts that are this dad’s gift to his   45  to marry daughter.
One heart is a small golden box with a   46  of you and me together. It will   47  you that of the men in your life I loved you   48  and will always love you forever and ever.
The second heart is made of jade (玉) and has the Chinese character "Fu". Jade represents luck and "Fu" means   49 . Maria and I want your life to be filled with   50 .
The third heart is just pretty and represents your   51 , inside and   52  kind. You are a wonderful, loving   53  from God, a beautiful human being. So we are delighted that you are entering this exciting part of your life.
Finally, the wedding (婚姻) will be amazing. I can’t wait to see you walk down in your beautiful dress. And I can’t wait to dance with you in   54 . My hope is that the event and the whole weekend will bring   55  memories.
This from your devoted and proud...Dad

The town I live in is about to put cameras at all traffic lights to catch people who run red lights. It  1 me of how many people I’ve seen who take the yellow light as a  2 to go faster. I also can’t understand why people don’t move when the traffic light has turned green. Above all, there are those  3 situations in which someone doesn’t even  4 that the light turns red, and just keeps going. That is why so many  5 happen! All these situations make me  6 the purpose of traffic lights.
  7 ,it’s even more frightening to imagine letting people make their own decisions at  8 crossroads. Do the biggest cars get to go first? Who decides who goes next? So I guess I do like the idea of a system to  9 traffic. And I’ll do my best to  10 the traffic rules: to go, to be cautious, and to stop when I’m  11 to.
It occurs to me that my  12 have done much the same for me  13 teaching me how to live. They have given me many  14 lights: to get along well with others, to listen and talk to them, to help others, and to 15 with joy and purpose. They have also given me some red lights  16 my life goes astray(误入歧途): not to be greedy, to keep my temper, and to control my desires. And there  17 have been some yellow caution lights: to watch how much I drink, to keep control of my behavior, and to  18 school regularly and work hard.
If I obey these rules, my life will be as  19 as it can be. Just as I’m wise to pay attention to the traffic lights when I’m walking across the street, I’m wise to pay attention to the“  20 signals”given to me by my parents.

SECTION B
Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and the required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.
Chinese cuisine(菜肴)is widely known and enjoyed in the world. But there is one interesting concept concerning Chinese food which is almost unheard of in the West, and which is becoming increasingly ignored by the youth of the East - the ancient custom of “tonic food.”
Tonic food is food which is consumed to improve one’s well-being, or stave off sickness, particularly at times when one is more likely to fall ill. For instance, it was once the custom for new mothers to eat a sesame-oil hot pot every day for the first month after giving birth. It was believed that this dish would benefit the muscles, reduce pain, improve circulation, stimulate sweating, and warm the body.
In fact, some Western theories of health are similar to the beliefs in Chinese tonic food, although each takes a different path toward the very same goal. Western medicine actually recommends some of the exact same ingredients that make up tonic foods. Sesame oil can provide lots of calories, and chicken meat is particularly high in protein. Any Western doctor should be happy to suggest such a Chinese dish after childbirth.
The elderly, weak, and young can also benefit greatly from tonic foods, especially during the winter. Some foods, such as goat meat and spinach, are seen as “hot,” while others, such as Chinese cabbage and radish, are seen as “cold.” One should be careful not to eat too much of either “hot” or “cold” food. However, how much “hot” or “cold” food one should eat depends on the time of the year, how the food is prepared and what it is prepared with, and the individual’s health.
“Warm” or “cool” tonic foods are strongly recommended. The choices for “warm” and “cool” foods range from simple sea cucumber to the delicacy of bird’s nest soup, depending on the individual’s economic circumstances.
The concept of tonic food is far from losing credibility, either with Westerners or practitioners of modern medicine. For example, up until two years ago, tonic foods were added to the meals served at a renowned hospital.
