8．Many people have contributed to the Olympic Games．At the 1984Los Angeles Olympics，the People's Republic of China returned to the Games after the 32years of absence．I am sure the whole of China must have felt very proud when Xu Haifeng won the first gold medal for his country．Deng Yaping，who won four Olympic gold medals in 1992and 1996and became an IOC member in 2000，is perhaps the greatest female table tennis player the world has ever seen．At the 2004Athens Olympic Games，Liu Xiang excited people all over Asia when he became the first Asian to win the gold medal in the men's 110-meet hurdles．Another superstar I would like to mention is Michael Jordan．At the 1992Barcelona Olympics，Jordan won his second Olympic gold medal as part of the so-called"Dream Team"of NBA players．

7．Frederick M．Hess is the director of education policy study at the American Enterprise Institute，which is a nonprofit organization that does research on many public topics．He says that a long summer vacation doesn't make sense in today's world．
Can American students afford to take a summer vacation？In a summer vacation，millions of children spend valuable time sending messages，watching TV，playing video games and doing shopping in the mall．They will also be putting their academic futures at risk．
Summer vacation once made sense in the past when you didn't need an education to get a good job．But now things have changed．For today's students，academic skills are important to students'future success，but such skills are affected in the summer time．Many other countries don't give children an American style summer vacation．They offer no more than seven consecutive （连续的） weeks of vacation．Most American school districts offer up to thirteen weeks．To compete in the global marketplace，Americans must be prepared to go up against international competitors．
Summer vacation also causes challenges for today's families．In the 1960s，more than 60% of families had a stayathome Mum．Now，two thirds of American children live in households where every adult works．For these families，summer vacation can be more a burden than a break．Someone must watch the kids．
But the biggest problem may be how summer vacation hurts academic achievement．Researchers have found that disadvantaged students lose ground in the summer time．
Any good suggestion？Yes．A longer school year does not have to be an invitation to hard boring work．Rather，it should allow time-pressed teachers to conduct richer and more imaginative lessons．Students would have more time to devote to sports，music and the arts．
To conclude，a long summer vacation can be a great thing．But in the 21st century，it may also be outdated．（313words）

6．
Robert Frost was no longer young when he published his first book of poems，A Boy's Will，in 1913．Though born in San Francisco，the USA，he came from a New England family which returned there when he was ten．Like many other writers，he had a brief brush with college and then supported himself by trying different jobs．However，he had been brought up on a farm and he liked farming．Most of all，he liked to write but he could not support himself by writing．In his late 30s he moved to England，where he produced his first book．
At the outbreak of World War I，Frost went back to farming in New Hampshire．From then on，although he made many journeys elsewhere，he considered the farm to be his home and farming activities became the focus of his poetry．
Frost's verses（诗，诗体） are a part of a great tradition，shaped by the Roman poet Vergil，whose poetry was mainly about farming．However，though he used farm situations in much of his poetry，he gave them a wide application．He might write about stepping on a rake（耙子） and describe the feeling when it hit him，but he used the incident to show how life gave us lessons．
Some talents in poetry are used up early，but not Frost's．He continued to publish fine poetry for fifty years．He reached the height of his popularity after World War II．If America had a national poet in the 20th century，it was Frost．He was chosen to read one of his poems at the inauguration（就职典礼）of the late President John F．Kennedy，the first poet ever so honored．
