My opinion on copying other's homework
It is known to us all that some students copy other's homeworkThere are several reasons for thisphenomenon．The main reason is that a large amount of homework which isdifficult to work out needs to be done every day．Although copying others'homework seems to do us a favor when we have to stay up late to finish theendless exercises，in fact，it really does harm to us students in terms ofgetting into a bad habit of being lazy to think over difficult questions．As far as I am concerned，as a student，we should not only be honest but work hardto finish all the homework on our own as well．As a saying goes"practicemakes perfect"．If we keep practicing and reviewing our lessonsthrough doing homework，we can do a good job in our exams．

12．Is your mobile phone directory（电话簿） full of phone numbers of people you don't really want to talk to？Do you go out with people from work or school more often than with your real friends？Do you say"yes"to invitations because you think you should，not because you want to？If you answered yes to at least two of these questions，then perhaps you need to"edit your friends"．
Nowadays people like to spend a lot of time with people at work or classmates at school．The result is that we don't have enough time to see our real，close friends．As our lives get busier，it becomes more important to spend the little free time we have with people we really want to see，people we love and who really love us．
Who are the friends you need to edit？A few years ago，I read a book about how to get rid of unnecessary possessions （物品）．It said you should ask yourself about each thing you have：Is it useful？Do I like it？Do I feel better every time I look at it？If the answer is no to any of those questions，you should throw it away．Maybe we should ask similar questions about our friends．What kind of friends will you probably need to edit？Sometimes it's an old friend．Somebody who you used to have a lot in common with，but who，when you meet now，you have very little or nothing to say to．Or it might be a new friend who you get on quite well with，but who is taking up too much of your time．Next time one of these people calls you and suggests a meeting，think"Do I really want to see this person？"and if the answer is no，say no，and make an excuse．In that way you'll have more time to spend with your real friends．

34．When do people need to edit their friends？B
A．They have moved to a different area．
B．They have no time with their real friend
C．Some of their friends don't talk very much．
D．Their friends are people from work or school．
35．What does the word"edit"in the passage mean？A
A．Examine and choose．
B．Believe and help．
C．Miss and see．
D．Call and meet．
36．What does the writer want to tell us in Paragraph 3？D
A．We should often throw some possessions．
B．Most of our friends are not necessary at all．
C．We shouldn't treat our friends as possessions．
D．We should ask ourselves who our real friends are．
37．Where can you probably find this article？A

10．There was a time when New York City buildings were almost all the same height．71．Today you can see buildings of different heights that seem to touch the sky．They are called skyscrapers （摩天大楼）
They shape the famous New York City skyline．
It started about 90 years ago．It began like a race．This wasn't a race down the street or around a track （跑道）It was a race for the sky．Who was racing？Buildings were．Their builders were actually racing to build the world's tallest skyscraper．
The race started slowly．
First came the Woolworth Building，in 1913．It rose 792feet on the southern side of the city．From far away，it looked like a thin castle floating （漂浮）in the sky．
Then the race heated up．
In 1930，two skyscrapers were nearing completion．The Bank of Manhattan Building was finished first．It rose up to 927feet into the sky．Builders were then putting a round roof on the top of the Chrysler Building．It shot up to 925feet．The Bank of Manhattan，two feet taller，seemed to be the winner．A big party was held to celebrate its victory．
A few weeks later，New Yorkers saw a strange sight．The day that the Chrysler Building was to be completed，workers raised a shiny metal spire （尖顶）．through the top of the building，adding 121feet to the building's height!At 1，048feet，the Chrysler Building was now the world's tallest．
But the race was not over．A year later，in 1931，the Empire State Building became the new winner．72．At 1，250 feet，it was the world's tallest building．
In 1973，even that record was broken．Builders finished the twin towers of the World Trade Center．At 1，368feet high，they rose above all other buildings in New York City．
Time goes on．As technology improves，taller buildings are being built．The race is still on．

A new study finds that plants communicate with one another to warn of danger．
We often consider plants as the furniture of the natural world．They don't move； they don't make sounds，they don't seem to act on anything．But as is often the case，plants talk to each other all the time．And the language is chemical．
Over the years，scientists have reported that different types of plants，from trees to tomatoes，give out chemicals into the air to help neighboring plants．These chemical warnings can spread information about one plant's disease or infestation（虫害），so other plants can protect themselves．But how plants receive and act on many of the information exactly is still mysterious．
In this week's Science Magazine，researchers in Japan offered some explanations．They have found out one chemical message and traced it all the way from beginning to end．
The scientists looked at tomato plants infested by a common pest（害虫）．To start out，they grew plants in two separate plastic spaces connected by a tube（管子）．One plant was infested and placed upwind and the other was uninfested and placed downwind．The downwind plants were later exposed（暴露） to the pest．The results showed that plants near sick neighbors before were able to protect themselves better against the pest．
They found one chemical appeared more often in the exposed plants．The chemical is called HexVic．The scientists discovered where HexVic come from，and put it over healthy plants．Those plants were then able to produce HexVic．Researchers made sure that uninfested plants could fight off bugs and diseases．How do they know when to protect themselves？They are warned first by their friendly plant neighbors．
It is not a simple story，and it may be happening in more plant species than tomatoes．It may also be happening with more chemical signals that are still unknown to us．In a word，we know that plants not only communicate，but also look out for one another．

7．After a cold winter，I was looking for something different．And I did find it．It was about twenty miles outside of Guadalajara，Mexico in a most unusual spa called Rio Caliente．
You probably won't find Rio Caliente in the guidebooks．We called Rio Caliente's booking agent in California for one．The price，670dollars each，for a ten-day stay which included three vegetarian meals a day，plus spa activities seemed too good to be true．
Getting off the plane in Guadalajara，it was easy to forget the winter we had just left behind．A taxi ride to Rio Caliente would cost us 90pesos each．We calculated quickly and figured the 20-mile trip would cost us about 24dollars．
Suddenly，we saw Rio Caliente up ahead!A large gate swung open and we drove in．It seemed we were transported into a magical paradise!Everything seemed lush（茂盛） and green，with beautiful，colorful flowers dotting the grounds．
Rio Caliente is situated in a national pine forest．Rio Caliente，which means'hot river'，sits on an ancient Indian healing ground．The entire area rests on a deep underground volcanic（由火山形成的） lake which supplies numerous springs and waterfalls（瀑布） along three sides of the spa．The water rises out of the ground at temperatures as high as 157F deuces．The mineral content of the water is particularly beneficial．The combination of salts and minerals，including lithium，is wonderful to soak in，and even more soothing to drink when cooled．
Meals were fantastic．They were mostly grains，fruits，soups，and vegetables．They•ere all delicious，and I managed to lose a few pounds even though I ate a great deal each meal．Each morning we would take a different route，always seeing something wonderful and mysterious．One morning，we walked to the mouth of a hot river，which steams out of me earth．Another time，we went to a very deep hole where Indian women，hundreds of years ago，sacrificed the most worthless man from the tribe into．I didn't get too close to the edge．Susan and I took two trips to Guadalajara when we were there．Guadalajara is a beautiful city．The historical section of town is splendid，with its museums and cathedral．We did some shopping and were delighted with the bargains．
On our last day we said good-bye to our new friends，and headed down towards the airport．The ten-day vacation had opened me up to a new country．The price is right，and the place is magical!

6．Recently I did carpooling （拼车）for the first time and it was wonderful．It was easy to find a driver．I used a carpooling website and found someone who was going to the same place as me．The website provided a lot of information about the drivers，such as their first names，ages and jobs as well as reviews from passengers．I decided to travel with a lady who had very good reviews．I paid for my share of the petrol（汽油） through the website and waited for her in the town centre．
It may seem quite scary to travel with a stranger but there are some safety tips．Firstly，the driver cannot receive your money until you text him or her a code （密码） at the end of your journey．Without the code，the driver will not get paid from the website．Secondly，it is important to read all the drivers'information before choosing who you want to travel with．Lastly，you'd better travel with a friend．
I had a very good experience of carpooling．Not only was the trip very cheap，but the driver was really friendly．Carpooling could be the future of travel．As train and petrol prices are rising，this cheaper form of travel will benefit both drivers and passengers．However，perhaps more importantly，carpooling is a great way to live green．
