9.My"perfect holiday"
Henry was a bus driver in a big city and he worked very hard.(56)E.He usually went to the seaside,but one year he saw an advertisement in a newspaper."Enjoy country life.Spend a few weeks at West Hill Farm.Good food.Fresh air.Horse riding.Walking. Camping.Cheap and interesting."
"(57)A,"he thought."I'll spend a month at West Hill Farm.I think I can enjoy horse riding,walking and camping.They'll make a change from sitting by the seaside and water sports."
(56)B.In the letter he said that he would like to spend all of July there.Then on the first of July,he left for West Hill Farm.
But four days later,he returned home.
"What was wrong with West Hill Farm?"his best friend,Ed,asked him."Didn't you enjoy country life?"
"Country life was very good,"Henry said."(56)D."
"Oh.What problem?"
"Well,"he said."The first day I was there a sheep died,and we had roast(烤) mutton(羊肉) for dinner."
"What's wrong with that?"Ed asked."Fresh meat is the best."
"It's good,but on the second day a cow died,and we had roast beef for dinner."
"Lucky you!"
"You don't understand,"Henry said."(60)C,and we had roast pork for dinner."
"A different kind of meat every day,"Ed said loudly."And you are complaining!"
"Let me finish,"Henry said."On the fourth day the farmer died,and I didn't dare(敢) to stay for dinner!"
A.This sounds a good idea
B.But there was a problem
C.On the third day a pig died
D.He wrote a letter to the farmer
E.In his holiday he enjoyed travelling
3.Whenever the sun dropped and the blue sky came up,my father and I used to climb the mountain (71)near my house.Walking together,my father and I used to have a lot of conversations through which I learned lessons (72)from his experiences.He always told me,"You should have goals like (73)climbing the mountain."Without the mountain-climbing that we both enjoyed,we couldn't have enough (74)time to spend together because my father was very busy.I (75)really got a lot from the mountain-climbing.It gave me time to talk with my father and to be in deep thought as well as develop my patience.
(76)Once we climbed a very high mountain.It was so challenging for me because I was only ten years old.During the first few hours of climbing,I enjoyed the flowers and trees,and the birds'singing.But as time (77)passed,I got a pain in both of my legs.I wanted to stop climbing,but my father said to me,"You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain,but you can't see it (78)before you reach the top.Only(79)there can you see all of the nice things,which is just like your life."
At that time,I was too(80)young to understand his words.But later after that,I got to know the meaning of hope in life.I found myself standing at the top of the mountain,and the sky was as clear as crystal(水晶).
2."Never give up"means to keep trying and never stop working for your goals.
A person who never gives up will keep trying to reach his (41)B no matter how many times he fails.If you want to (42)D,you can't give up.
One reason is that if we give up easily,we can (43)C succeed.It is common for us to fail in our first try at (44)A new,so we should not feel disappointed and should try again.Besides,if we always (45)C when we fail,we will not be able to develop new skills.(46)D reason we should never give up is that we can learn from our mistakes if we try hard to do something new.If we do not try again,the lesson we have learned is (47)A.Finally,we should never give up because as we work to reach our goals,we develop (48)B,and it can help us succeed in other areas of our lives.
In a word,it is (49)A that we do not give up when working for our goals.(50)C we succeed in the end or not,we will learn something,and what we learn will help us become more confident.

1.As we know,museums are buildings with many precious and important objects(物品) from different places.They are kept so that people can go and see them.For example,art museums are places where people can learn about v(81)ariouscultures.More and more popular"design museums"are opening today,h(82)owever,play quite a different role.Unlike most art museums,the design museum shows objects that are easily found in our daily life,such as fridges and washing machines.The a(83)dvantage  of design museums is that they are places where people feel familiar with the exhibits.Being different from the art museum visitors,design museum visitors s(84)eldom  feel frightened or puzzled.This is partly because design museums clearly show how and why mass-products(批量产品) work and look as they do,and how design has i(85)mproved our lives.People can see the better changes of the products.Art museum exhibits,on the other hand,would most probably fill visitors with a feeling that there is something they don't understand.
Several new design museums have opened their doors in recent years.Each of these museums has tried to satisfy the public's growing interest in the field with new i(86)deas.London's Design Museum,for example,shows a collection of mass-produced objects from electric typewriters to a group of Italian fish-tins.The choices open to design museums seem far less s(87)trictthan those to art museum.Visitors may also sense the humorous part of our society while walking around such exhibits as interesting and unusually attractive toys collected from our everyday life.
