16．Developing a better relationship with Parents is important for most of the people．（36）GFor example，some adult children believe that parents are not able to understand their lifestyles while some believe parents want to control their lives．Here are some tips on how to develop a better relationship with your parents．
（37）FLove your parents for who they are，not for who you want them to be．Realize how much they have done in order to give you the best life possible．Recognize the difference in your respective ages．Priorities（优先处理的事）change as a person grows live．
Take your parent's advice seriously．Listen to their stories and learn from their past experiences．Parents don't want you to make the same mistakes they did and it hurts them to see their children go through any difficult times．Realize that your parents are not trying to control you．（38）E．
（39）AMake an effort to spend quality time with your parents．Remember to visit them as often as you can．Get involved in their activities．Parents love to share the excitements of their lives with their children．Listen to their adventures，as parents often want their children to hear their latest news．
Make an effort to communicate with your parents more often．（40）BAsk for advice when it's needed．Listen and accept their concerns．Try to use statements such as，"I will certainly consider what you just said"，or"I would love to hear more about this in person．"Communicating openly will make them have more confidence in you．

A．Manage your time better．
B．Share the parts of your life with them．
C．It's never too late to express your love．
D．But you need to plan another visit time．
E．They only want to tell you what is the best for you．
F．Understand the difference between you and your parents．
G．However，becoming older creates some distance from parents．
10．How to Improve Vocabulary Fast
Your vocabulary refers to the words in a language you are familiar with．We should learn some ways to expand it．
Read every day．（36）GChoose reading material that is slightly above your level and keep a dictionary with you to look up words you do not know．
 （37）FIf you do not meet with an unfamiliar word in your daily reading，use your dictionary to search for one．
Learn the correct definition and pronunciation for each new word．Pronunciation is as important as definition because in order to add a word to your active vocabulary，you must be able to use it in speech．
Elaborate（阐释）on the meaning of the word．Use imagery and personal relevance．If you have just learned the word"stubborn"，think about the neighbor who will not lend you his car．  （38）D
Use your new word in speech and in writing．E-mail your sister about how your cat is stubborn about sleeping on your pillow．  （39）EBut the more you use it，the more fluent you will become in its use．Soon it will be a regular part of your active vocabulary．
Tell everyone you are trying to increase your vocabulary．Encourage them to ask you what your latest word is．  （40）AThe more you explain the meaning of a word to someone，the more likely you are to remember it．

A．Or let them ask for the definition of a new word you have used．
B．Your vocabulary contains the words you understand．
C．The vocabulary can be increased．
D．Imagine him shaking his head，and think of him as"stubborn in his refusal"．
E．The first time you use a new word in speech，it may seem clumsy and forced．
F．Find a new word every day
G．The more often you read，the faster your vocabulary can grow．
7．Have you ever wondered why there are so many skin colours in the world？Do you know why people living in particular areas usually have a certain colour？Biology and history are the two reasons for this．
Skin contains something called melanin，which determines a person's skin colour．The more melanin a person has，the darker his or her skin will be．The amount of and production of melanin are controlled by genes，but can be affected by other things，such as sunlight．If a person lives in a place with strong sunlight，his or her skin will protect itself by producing more melanin，making the skin darker．In a place with less sunlight，a person's body will produce less melanin，making the skin lighter．
Skin colour is also affected by another source-vitamin D．Humans all need vitamin D to build bones．People can get it by eating foods such as fish and milk，or from sunlight，which causes vitamin production in the skin．Melanin protects skin by absorbing sunlight，so sunlight absorbed by melanin cannot be used for vitamin D production．Therefore，a dark-skinned person will produce less vitamin D than a light-skinned person when they receive the same amount of sunlight．
The connection between vitamin D production and skin colour is clear when we look at evolution．The earliest humans lived in Africa，their dark skin covered with hair．When they moved to places that had less sunlight，their bodies produced less vitamin D because of their dark skin．As a result，their skin made less melanin，so they could get enough sunlight to produce vitamin D．Their skin gradually got lighter and they lost hair．Now，people who live in areas with strong sunlight，like Africa，have darker skin，while people living in other areas have lighter skin．The exception to this is the Inuit，who live in a place with little sunlight，but have dark skin because they eat a lot of fish and have enough vitamin D．
Evolution has given us a rainbow of skin colours．Humans have always had melanin to determine our skin colour．What has changed through history is the environment where we have lived．This has in turn changed our melanin production，and eventually，skin colour．
A World of Skin Colour
Brief introductionPeople living in a particular area usually have the   （71）sameskin colour and there are many different skin colours in the world．
Reasons for skin colourThe reasons for different skin colours mainly （72）lie/consist  in biology and history．
Biological reasonsThe amount of melanin，by which a person's skin colour is （73）determined，varies from people to people．The more melanin a person has，the （74）darkerhis or her skin will be．
Vitamin D is another source （75）affectingskin colour．Vitamin D is necessary for humans to build bones．Sunlight contributes to vitamin D production in the skin．
（76）Historical
reasons		The earliest people in Africa had dark skin with hair covering it because the sunlight is very strong．．
When they moved to places where they could not get enough sunlight to （77）producevitamin D，their skin colour became lighter．
Generally speaking，people in areas with strong sunlight，have darker skin （78）whilepeople in other areas have lighter skin．
（79）Conclusion/SummaryMelanin （80）playsan important role in our skin colour．With our living environment changing，melanin production is changed，which leads to the changes in our skin colour．
14．Selfie
Social media and the mobile web have given rise to a strange phenomenon called the selfie（自拍）．It refers to a picture of yourself，usually shared on any social networking website．
（36）ASome selfies are extreme close-ups（特写镜头），and others show part of an arm held straight outward．A few of them even feature the subject standing in front of a bathroom mirror．
Everyone takes selfies，but the younger crowd seems to be especially involved in the trend．Young people are relatively heavier digital users．They are interested in staying connected to their friends．（37）C
There are also kinds of psychological factors driving people to take a selfie and upload it to a social networking site．（38）G 
A quick and easy way to attract other's attention is to get"likes"and comments from friends．Secondly，it's human nature to show off your own great achievements．When you feel good about yourself or look good，it's far too easy to take out your phone and document it all through one or several selfies．（39）F 
That's right．Sometimes people are bored at work，bored at school，bored at home and even bored on the toilet．Last but not least，social media is about being social!If that means uploading as many selfies as possible，then so be it．It's fun，and it's a cool way to sort of document your own life．
Finally，there are things to be mindful of when you're posting．It's easy to think you're sharing a photo with a few people．（40）E
 So don't post anything online，selfie especially．

A．There are lots of selfie styles．
B．The rise of selfies has become universal．
C．Social media，to some extent，is the driving force of their selfie activity．
D．The desire to take，post and get"likes"on selfies goes back to a biological behavior．
E．But the whole world of social media is public and every individual can get access to it．
F．There are also people who will take selfies because they have nothing else better to do．
G．The leading factor is that people want to get attention from as many people as possible．
4．In the winter of 1990，I was asked to appear on a television talk show in Toronto，Ontario，Canada．At the end of our first day of taping，I was on my way back to my 24-hour-room-service （36）B when I saw something shocking．
On the sidewalk in four inches of snow was a man （37）A with only a cardboard to keep him from being completely （38）Cto the freezing cold．What really broke my heart was when I （39）D that he wore no shoes and socks．
I wanted to stop and help him，（40）AI was not quite sure what to do．As the traffic light turned green，it seemed life was demanding that I （41）B．So I did．Back in"anything I wanted was mine"environment of my hotel，I immediately （42）Cabout the man on the street．Several days later，I was eating Danish at the station．All of the"important"people had （43）B the room and it was just me and the doorman remaining．
I had seen him （44）C go about his business every day without saying a word except，（45）D，When I asked him how he was （46）Ctoday，he told me that he'd been having to ride his bike to work in the snow and that he'd been feeling rather （47）C for himself…that is，until he saw a man sleeping down on the corner of the street with just a （48）B for covering from the cold and no shoes．I almost （49）D on my Danish as I heard him go on to relate how he was so moved with （50）A for the man that he bought the man a pair of socks and shoes．
As I heard his stay，I saw in my mind a （51）C that used to be in an old friend's bedroom when I was a teenager．It was a picture of a child  _52_A someone a flower and the （53）D below read：'The （54）B deed often exceeds （胜过） the grandest of intentions．"As Mother Teresa （55）B it，"none of us can do anything great on our own，but we can all do a small thing with great love．"

11．假设你是红星中学高中学生李华，最近，你校学生会对影响学生课外阅读的因素进行了调查，结果见下图．请根据图示提供的信息给某英文报纸写信，反映调查的实际情况，并寻求建议．

8．Can you play a musical instrument？Where did you learn to play it？If you were a pupil in a British school，you would most probably learn at school．Around 25% of British pupils learn an instrument．What's more，of the 75% that don't，40% would like to．But what instruments do the pupils learn to play？Traditionally，school children learnt classical instruments，such as the piano or violin．This is still true today．Younger children often learn the recorder．As they get older，they start to play the violin or piano．In fact，nearly one out of five music students is learning the violin．The piano，or keyboard，is more popular with older children at secondary school．However，things are changing．More pupils than ever before are now learning the guitar．As many as 16% of pupils learning an instrument are strumming（弹奏）its strings．
British schools do not just offer lessons for instruments．All pupils learn music together as a class．These classes have been changing，too．In the past，the focus of classes was very much Western classical music．But the classes now cover a far wider range of styles，including folk music and world music．In a recent study by Keele University，64% of boys and 70% of girls said they enjoyed music lessons as a class．They like singing and playing instruments and find the lessons fun．
Many schools have orchestras（管弦乐队）and put on concerts each term．It is also common for pupils themselves to form their own bands，copying their rock and pop heroes．In conclusion，music plays a big part in British schools．Pupils can study an instrument，play music together as a class and even take part in concerts and plays．
