Give water, save lives
A bottle of water may not seem like much to you, but thousands of bottles will be of great help for people who live in drought-hit(遭受旱灾) areas in China.
Since last autumn, there has been very little rain in Southwest China. Some places, especially in Yunnan . Guangxi, Sichuan, Guizhou, have experienced a serious drought. Crops (庄稼) died, the land cracked, and wells (井) and rivers dried up. More than 20 million people are having difficulty in finding safe drinking water.
After learning about the drought, many people around the country helped by giving water, money and other things.
Last week, every member of the Communist Youth League (共青团员) and Young Pioneers(少先队员) were encouraged to give one bottle of water to the drought-hit areas. Students in primary schools and middle schools quickly joined the activity. In Yuhua Primary School in Xi’ an, 900 students bought over 1,000 bottles of water with their pocket money. They also wrote their wishes on the bottles.
The serious drought has also made students realize the importance of saving water.
Students from Nanshan Middle School in Huizhou in Guangdong went on the street to tell people to take part in water-saving activities.
“I’ve heard that some children in drought-hit areas don’ t have enough drinking water. They have to drink muddy ( 含有泥土的 ) water. I feel really sad about that," said one student. “I decide to take a shower twice a week instead of every day to save water.”he said.
小题1:Why did a serious drought happen in Southwest China?  
___________________________________________________________________________                     小题2:What does the underlined (划线的) word "cracked" probably mean in Chinese?
______________________________________________                   !
小题3:What did people do after learning about the drought?
                                                                  
小题4:Is a bottle of water helpful for the people in drought-hit areas?
                                                                              
小题5:What can you learn from the passage?                                     

小题1:Because there has been very little rain since last autumn.
小题2:裂开、裂缝
小题3: They helped by giving water, money and other things.
小题4: Yes, it is. / No, but thousands will. /
A bottle of water isn’t much, but thousands will be of great use.
小题5:It’s time for us to save water. / We should help out people in trouble.
前面三段说明性的文章可以带着问题直接去找答案。而且答案一般都是按照段落顺序。后面段落讲述了西安一个学校的共青团员和广东的学生为干旱所做的事情。
1.  Southwest China是大写字母做关键词,在文章第二段第一行Since last autumn, there has been very little rain in Southwest China.用why提问,要用Because来回答,所以答案是Because there has been very little rain since last autumn.
2.猜词义要根据上下文的语境,在第二段第三行Crops (庄稼) died, the land cracked,庄稼死了,由于前面的干旱,猜测可得是土地开裂的意思。
3.after learning about the drought是关键词,在文章第三段many people around the country helped by giving water, money and other things. 答案中many people around the country用they代替。
4.第四段In Yuhua Primary School in Xi’ an, 900 students bought over 1,000 bottles of water with their pocket money. 根据文章意思回答是或者不是都有道理:对于干旱的地方来说,就算一瓶水也很重要,回答 Yes, it is.也可以理解为一瓶水太少,没有用,但文章中如果1000多瓶水可能就有用了,所以答案也可以是No, but thousands will. /
A bottle of water isn’t much, but thousands will be of great use.(此题需要自己组织语言,比较难)
5.前三段讲了干旱,后面讲了学生们采取行动。所以是在呼吁更多的人加入节约用水的活动中来。只要答到这个意思即可。It’s time for us to save water. / We should help out people in trouble.意思与这个相仿都可以。

My version(视力) is getting worse. I can’t even see what is five feet away from me without glasses. ①我拒绝戴眼镜,though I know I need to. I’m afraid they will make me look ugly. Besides, I can do well without them. These were my thoughts two years ago, when I was in the sixth grade. An embarrassing experience taught me that what I was thinking was wrong.
School has been out for two months. I was going to junior high school soon, where I was sure that looks are everything. So the question still remained there. Should I, Or should I not, wear glasses? The question was still in my mind when my family and I attended a wedding(婚礼) late in the summer.
During the wedding, I drank too much juice. Soon after it ended, I walked quickly to the bathroom. Since it was an emergency(紧急) and I couldn’t clearly see which door was ③marked boys. I just opened the nearest door and entered the restroom.
Unluckily, I had entered the wrong restroom. But I didn’t know this until I heard a scream(尖叫声) coming from the entrance when I was washing my hands .
After that, I decided to wear the ugly-looking glasses. I didn’t really ④care about what people thought of me any more, because I never wanted to enter the wrong bathroom again.
On the first day of seventh grade, ⑤my friends didnt make fun of me. Instead they gave me compliments. They thought the glasses made me look more cute and more natural.
So if you know something is right, just do it. ⑥It doesnt matter what others think of you. All that matters is what you think of yourself—and that you can see where you are going!

下面是李国龙先生写的求职信及个人简历,请根据信的内容,将其简历补充完整,每个空格填一词
73 Xinchang Road, Beijing
May 20, 2011         
Dear Sir,
I am writing to introduce myself, with the hope of getting the job you advertised in Daily news.
When I was a child, I was fond of English and always got good grades. In 1995, after six years of hard work in Beijing No. 4 Middle School, I entered People’s University. I studied English there for four years.
Luckily, I got my first job when I graduated. I taught English in Beijing No. 4 Middle School from 1999 to 2002. Then I got the chance to receive further education in University of Hawaii in the US. That was a precious experience of my life. I learnt a lot during those two years, especially the differences between eastern and western cultures.
I came back to People’s University in 2004. I worked as an assistant(助手) for two years and then as a professor. So far I have got 9 years of working experience.
I won lots of awards. I was an“Excellent Student”of People’s University in 1998, and an“Outstanding Teacher”of Beijing No. 4 middle school in 2001.
Thank you for reading my letter, and I will appreciate it very much if you can reply soon.
Yours sincerely,
Li Goulong
