7．Ali is from a Middle Eastern country．He now stays in the USA．He smokes a lot of cigarettes every day．He has smoked for nine years．Ali says，"I tried to quit （放弃） smoking in my hometown，but it was impossible．My parents smoke．My brothers smoke．All my friends smoke．At parties and at meetings，almost all the men smoke．Here in the United States，not as many people smoke．（31）B"
Many smokers are like Ali：they want to stop smoking．（32）D  They know it can cause cancer and heart disease．But it is difficult for them to give up smoking because cigarettes have a drug in them．The drug is nicotine．People who smoke a lot need nicotine．
（33）E  The nicotine （尼古丁） makes him sick．In a few days，the smoker's body is used to the nicotine，and he feels fine．Later，the smoker needs nicotine to keep feeling fine．Without nicotine，he feels bad．
（34）A  Many people who quit will soon smoke again．At a party or at work they will decide to smoke"just one"cigarette．Then they will smoke another cigarette，and another．Soon they become smokers again．（35）F

B．It will be easier to change the smoking habit here．

6．Everyone needs friends．We all like to feel close to someone．It is nice to have a friend to talk，laugh and do things with．Surely，sometimes we need to be alone．We don't always want people around．But we would feel lonely if we never had a friend．
No two people are the same．Sometimes friends don't get along well．That doesn't mean that they no longer like each other．Most of the time they will go on being friends．Sometimes friends move away．Then we feel very sad．We miss them very much．But we can call them and write to them．Maybe we would never see them again．And we can make new friends．It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them．Families sometimes name their children after a close friend．Many places are named after men and women，if they are friendly to people in a town．Some libraries are named this way．So are some schools．We think of these people when we go to these places．
There's more good news for people，if they have friends．These people live longer than those people who don't have friends．Why？It could be that they are happier．Being happy helps you stay well．Or it could be just knowing that someone cares about you．If someone cares about you，you take better care of yourself．

4．Dear Grandma，
It was nice seeing you at Christmas．You looked so happy!
After losing two grandparents within the past year，I have taken some time to reflect on（反思） what is most important．I want to let you know what a positive influence you have been on me．I am the person I am because of you．
I remember being on your farm a lot when I was younger．I remember the projects you planned for us．We painted rocks to represent our family members．We made doll clothes out of colorful socks．We made many"playhouses"in the woods．
We learned that if you left a bucket of soybeans in the rain，you would soon have a bucket of growing beans．We learned that if we helped pick the strawberries in the morning，we'd have them on our ice cream in the afternoon．We learned that some plants have funny names，like the elephant ear plant．We learned that you could make do with what you had．We learned that making things out of paper and cardboard was more fun than what came inside the packaging．We learned it was OK to get dirty，but Grandma would wash us up before Mom came．
You once made models of everyone's houses，which made me want to be an architect．Another time，you made quilts for all of the grandkids．I still use mine every night．The edge has worn out．
But you taught me how to fix it．
I love and respect you．You are always patient，with a quiet determination．
Grandma，thank you for everything you have taught me．I hope that I am able to pass on all these memories and skills to my children and grandchildren．
Love always，
Kelly

3．Should we allow modern buildings to be built next to older buildings in a historic area of a city？In order to answer this question，we must first examine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area．Not all historical buildings are attractive．However，there may be other reasons-for example，economic reasons-why they should be preserved．So，let us assume that historical buildings are both attractive and important to the majority of people．What should we do then if a new building is needed？
In my view，new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style．Indeed，there are many examples in my own hometown of Tours where modern designs have ben placed very successfully next to old buildings．As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not dominate （影响） its surroundings too much，it often improves the attractiveness of the area．
It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt （破坏） the area they are in，but the same can be said of some old buildings too．Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas．I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative（保守的） and do not like change．
Although we have to respect people's feelings as fellow users of the buildings，I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to move things forward．If we always reproduced what was thre before，we would all still be living in caves．Thus，I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different，even though that might be the more risky choice．
28．What does the author say about historical buildings in th first paragraph？D
A．Most of them are too expensive to preserve．
B．They are more pleasing than modern buildings．
C．They have nothing to do with the historic feel of an area．
D．Some of them are not attractive．
29．Which of the following is TRUE according to the author？A
A．Some old buildings have spoilt the area they are in．
B．We should reproduce the same old buildings．
C．Buildings should not dominate their surroundings．
D．No one understands why people speak against new buildings．
30．By"move things forward"in the last paragraph，the author probably means"C"．
A．destroy old buildings
B．put things in a different place
C．choose new architectural style
D．respect people's feelings for historical buildings
31．What is the main purpose of the passage？B
A．To explain why people dislike change．
B．To argue that modern buildings can be built in historic areas．
C．To warn that we could end up living in caves．
D．To admit how new buildings have ruined their surroundings．
