Home on the way

People need homes: children regard their parents' place as home; boarders call school "home" on weekdays; married couples work together to build new homes; and travelers … have no place to call "home", at least for a few nights.1.. Don’t they have the right to a home? Of course they do.

Some regular travelers take their own belongings: like bed sheets, pillowcases and family photos to make them feel like home no matter where they are; some stay for long periods in the same hotel and as a result become very familiar with service and attendants;2.. Furthermore, driving a camping car during one’s travels and sleeping in the vehicle at night is just like home -- only mobile!

And how about keeping relationships while in transit?3.; some send letters and postcards, or even photos; others may just call and say “hi”, just to let their friends know that they're still alive and well. People find ways to keep in touch. Making friends on the way helps travelers feel more or less at home.4..

Nowadays, fewer people are working in their local towns, so how do they develop a sense of belonging? Whenever we step out of our local boundaries, there is always another “home” waiting to be found.5., we can make the place we stay “home”.

A. Hotels provide a clean safe place to stay while you are travelling the world[

B. others may simply put some flowers by the hotel window to make things more homely

C. Backpackers in youth hostels may become very good friends, even closer than siblings（手足）

D. So how about people who have to travel for quite a long time

E. No matter where you go to in the world, hotels are there, too

F. Some keep contact with their friends by means of Internet

G. Wherever we are, with just a little bit of effort and imagination

假如你是李华，刚从外国度假回来，你对度假期间的宾馆很不满意，宾馆房间小，有时没有热水，网络连接慢，食物不新鲜。请给该宾馆负责人写封信，说明情况，并要求赔偿。

注意：1.词数100 左右；2.可适当增加细节，以使行文流畅。

We are often unable to pay close attention to what we hear. But sometimes we try to remember everything a speaker say. We turn into sponges, taking in a speaker’s every word as if every word was equally important. We try to remember all the names, all the dates, and all the places. In the process we often miss the speaker’s main point.

Erik Waldman works at a design company. Knowing he had never been good at budgeting his money, he was determined to begin thinking about his economic future. When his employer circulated an e-mail announcing a financial planning seminar, Erik signed up right away.

The first period was about retirement planning. Simone Fisher, the lecturer, explained that 7 of 10 Americans between the ages of 22 and 35 do not have a regular savings plan. Erik wrote down every number Simone mentioned.

“If you want to have a retirement income equal to 75 percent of your current salary,” Simone continued, “you will need to invest at least of 6 percent of your present earnings, and beyond that you need to consider future inflation rates(通货膨胀率). I will help you calculate your individual savings needs soon. In the meantime, I want to stress that the most important thing is to start saving now.”

Erik recorded all the statistics Simone used. When she opened the floor for question, Erik raised his hand and said, “I have two question. When is the best time to start saving for retirement ? And how am I supposed to figure out my savings target if I don’t know what inflation rates will be in the future?”

This is a typical example of losing the speaker’s point by concentration on details. Erik had fixed his mind on remembering all the statistics in Simone’s presentation, but he blocked out the man message. Rather than trying to remember everything, efficient listeners usually concentrate on main ideas and evidence.

1.What does the underlined part “We turn into sponges” in Paragraph 1 mean?

A. We sometimes become other persons.

B. We often fail to focus our attention

C. We refuse to agree with the speaker.

D. We find it difficult to remember key things

2.During the first period of the seminar, Erik______.

A. focused on the lecture’s details

B. got Simone Fisher’s main idea

C. showed little interest in the lecture

D. knew how to calculate inflation rates

3.When hearing Erik’s questions, Simone might think______.

A. they were very good question

B. Erik was an excellent partner

C. they had just been discussed

D. they were hard to answer

4.What do we know about Erik?

A. His boss asked him to attend the lecture

B. He does badly in managing his money

C. He has a good memory

D. He is still a student

Dearest darling girl,

Today is the beginning of the next stage in your life. We head off to your new home at Stanford. Where do I start in telling you how proud I feel to be called Mummy by you? We've laughed at how you burst into this world with a scowl on your face, how determined you have always been right from feeding yourself to making big decisions for your life. There were days during your illness that I wasn't sure you had the will to make it. Telling you that you needed to want to get better was the hardest and yet the greatest day. From that day you took responsibility and decided you wanted to beat anorexia（厌食症）．

I don't think I've ever felt so proud of you as when you came home to say that you wanted to go to West Africa between school and university. You chose to go alone, and to raise the money yourself. You have such strength of character and determination. It is at times hard to believe that you are only 18. You experienced something in that month that few dare experience in a lifetime.

So, Viv, here are my words of wisdom to you as you start your next big adventure. The world is a beautiful place but often a few things can make it seem difficult. God's temple is made of love. It's man's temple that is built of stones. Open your heart to goodness and never ever let negative people or thoughts take hold of you. As Minor Myers put it, "Go into the world and do we’ll. But more importantly, go into the world and do good:'

It is true that with every passing day, I will grow older and weaker. A day may come when I will become forgetful. But even then, you with your bright smile, will light up my heart.

Your Alo

A. Amused and thankful. B. Pleased and satisfied.

C. Cheerful and relieved. D. Concerned and anxious.

Do you need friends? I'm sure your answer is "Yes, of course. Everybody does!" You need friends when you play and when you work. If you have friends, you will feel happy. If you have no friends, you will feel lonely (寂寞的). Do you know how to make friends? There is only one good way―You make friends by being friendly. A friendly person is interested in other people. He is always helpful if you want to make friends with a new classmate, you can talk with him, tell him about the other classmates in your class and try your best to be helpful to him.

Ashley C.Ford, a New York City writer, recently appealed to her 66 000 Twitter followers. “A cool thing you can do today is to try to find out which of your local schools have kids with overdue（过期未付的）lunch accounts and pay them off.”

Children from the poorest families get free or reduced-price breakfast and lunch. But some struggle to pay even reduced prices. Some of the IOUs（借据）come from kids who simply forget their lunch money or parents who can afford to pay but neglect to keep prepaid accounts up to date.

People around the country have been inspired by Ashley C. Ford to donate money to pay off debts owed by parents that can follow kids throughout their school careers.

“It really hit home for me,” said Kristina Arwood, who launched a campaign that raised $20,000 to pay lunch debts in her region. “I grew up on free and reduced-price lunches, but even that 40 cents was hard to get together with four kids. There were times I wouldn't eat because I didn't have money.”

The effort drew some criticism from people who said some of the money is owed by parents who can afford the $2.50 for lunch but let their accounts run into the red. But the response has been mostly positive.

“It's unrealistic to think donations are going to fix this problem for all school districts,” said Diane Pratt-Heavner, spokeswoman for the association.

Ford said her real aim was to inspire a bigger wave of community giving. She said, “It was just one idea; another school might need help with uniforms or tutoring. The point was to do something that helps people in your community.”

1.Kids with overdue lunch accounts may be those ________.

A. who refuse to bring their lunch money to school

B. whose parents are unwilling to pay the accounts in advance

C. whose family fail to pay for their meals even at reduced prices

D. who would have the debts follow them throughout their school years

2.Which of the following statements about the campaign launched by Ashley C.Ford is RIGHT?

A. It could solve the problem of school children failing to pay their meals.

B. It received wide support and criticism from some people as well.

C. It raised enough money to cover the IOUs in all school districts.

D. It also focused on helping kids with their school uniforms.

3.What did Kristina mean by saying "It really hit home for me" in Paragraph 4?

A. She was rather surprised at what the kids experienced.

B. She felt as if she were stricken by the kids' sufferings.

C. She felt touched because of her similar experiences in childhood.

D. Her family were suffering because of her donation to the campaign.

4.What is Ashley C. Ford's real aim to appeal to her Twitter followers to donate to the kids?

A. To ensure that the government get universal free meals for all students.

B. To arouse people's concern about those who need uniforms or tutoring.

C. To raise enough money to pay the lunch debts in all the schools.

D. To encourage more people to take action to help those in need.

Some students who had graduated visited their university professor. The conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life. To offer his guests coffee, the professor1.(go) to the kitchen and returned with a pot of coffee and2.variety of cups—porcelain, plastic, glass, some plain-looking, some expensive—telling them to help3.to the coffee.

4.was when all the students had a cup of coffee in hand that he said, “All the nice-looking expensive cups have been taken up, 5. (leave) behind the plain and cheap ones. Actually, the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee. 6.all of you really want is coffee, not the cup.You consciously went for the best cups, 7.then you began eyeing others’ cups.”

“Now consider this: Life is the coffee; the jobs, money and position in society are the cups, 8.are just tools to hold and contain life. The type of cup we have does not change the quality of life . If we concentrate only 9. the cups, we fail to enjoy the coffee. I 10. (true) hope that you will never let the cups drive you ... enjoy the coffee instead.”
