Still seeking a destination for your weekend break? There are some places which are probably a mere wall away from your college.
King’s Art Centre
A day at the Centre could mean a visit to an exhibition of the work of one of the most interesting contemporary artists on show anywhere. This weekend sees the opening of an exhibition of four local artists.
You could attend a class teaching you how to ‘learn from the masters’ or get more creative with paint – free of charge.
The Centre also runs two life drawing classes for which there is a small fee.
The Botanic Garden
The Garden has over 8,000 plant species; it holds the research and teaching collection of living plants for Cambridge University.
The multi-branched Torch Aloe here is impressive. The African plant produces red flowers above blue-green leaves, and is not one to miss.
Get to the display house to see Dionaea muscipula, a plant more commonly known as the Venus Flytrap that feeds on insects and other small animals.
The Garden is also a place for wildlife-enthusiasts. Look for grass snakes in the lake. A snake called ‘Hissing Sid’ is regularly seen lying in the heat of the warm sun.
Byron’s Pool
Many stories surround Lord Byron’s time as a student of Cambridge University. Arriving in 1805, he wrote a letter complaining that it was a place of “mess and drunkenness”. However, it seems as though Byron did manage to pass the time pleasantly enough. I’m not just talking about the pet bear he kept in his rooms. He spent a great deal of time walking in the village.
It is also said that on occasion Byron swam naked by moonlight in the lake, which is now known as Byron’s Pool. A couple of miles past Grant Chester in the south Cambridge shire countryside, the pool is surrounded by beautiful circular paths around the fields. The cries of invisible birds make the trip a lovely experience and on the way home you can drop into the village for afternoon tea. If you don’t trust me, then perhaps you’ll take it from Virginia Woolf – over a century after Byron, she reportedly took a trip to swim in the same pool.
1.As mentioned in the passage, there is a small charge for ____.
A. attending the masters’ class
B. working with local artists
C. learning life drawing
D. seeing an exhibition
2.“Torch Aloe” and “Venus Flytrap” are ____.
A. common insects
B. impressive plants
C. rarely-seen snakes
D. wildlife-enthusiasts
3.We can infer from the passage that Byron seemed ____.
A. to fear pet bears
B. to like walking
C. to be a heavy drinker
D. to finish university in 1805
4. In the passage Byron’s Pool is described as a lake ____.
A. surrounded by fields
B. owned by Lord Byron
C. located in Grant Chester
D. discovered by Virginia Woolf

As we know, when senior students finish their school, most of their reference books are thrown away, which are still in good condition. How a great waste it is!
I suggest that students must recycle all these books. On the one hand, recycling them can save a lot of natural resource, which are used to make textbooks. On the other hand, the notes in the books are helpful to whoever need them.
In fact, recycling textbooks has been increasing popular in such countries like America and Australia. We should learn from them, but make every effort to build energy-saving society. In my opinion, it is of much benefit from our present and our future.

Building Trust in a Relationship Again
Trust is a learned behavior that we gain from past experiences. 1. Trust is a risk. But you can’t be successful when there’s a lack of trust in a relationship that results from an action where the wrongdoer takes no responsibility to fix the mistake.
Unfortunately, we’ve all been victims of betrayal. Whether we’ve been stolen from, lied to, misled, or cheated on, there are different levels of losing trust. 2. They’ve been too badly hurt and they can’t bear to let it happen again. It’s understandable, but if you’re willing to build trust in a relationship again, we have some steps you can take to get you there.
●Learn to really trust yourself. Having confidence in yourself will help you make better choices because you can see what the best outcome would be for your well-being.
● 3. If you’ve been betrayed, you are the victim of your circumstance. But there’s a difference between being a victim and living with a “victim mentality”. At some point in all of our lives, we’ll have our trust tested or violated.
● 4. Once trust is lost, what is left? Instead of looking at the situation from this hopeless angle, look at everything you still have and be thankful for all of the good in your life. 5. Instead, it’s a healthy way to work through the experience to allow room for positive growth and forgiveness.
A. You didn’t lose “everything”
B. It is putting confidence in someone.
C. Stop regarding yourself as the victim.
D. Sometimes people simply can’t trust anymore.
E. Remember that you can expect the best in return.
F. This knowledge carries over in their attitude toward their future relationships.
G. Seeing the positive side of things doesn’t mean you’re ignoring what happened.

Hello. I’m Jan from Mrs. Lake’s class. My class wants to work together to help the public. We think we have found a great way to do this. Last month we did a class project on the highways near our town. We learned about the Adopt-a-Highway Program. This program brings people together to pick up litter along the roads. We think it would be a great idea for all students in our school to join the program and adopt a highway.
Adopting a highway is not like adopting a pet. When a highway is adopted, only part of the highway is cared for by a group of people. The group agrees to work every week to keep its part of the highway clean. Each group gets its own sign that has the name of the group printed on it. The sign is put up at the side of the road. This sign lets drivers know who is keeping that area of the road clean.
The Adopt-a-Highway Program is a great way for people to help their environment look nicer. Also, the government does not have to send out as many road workers. This saves money. Finally, people may try harder to keep roads clean if they see people, especially teenagers like us, cleaning them up.
We will need helpers to care for our adopted highway. If you want to feel great and keep our roads clean，please come with your parents to the meeting next week. We will meet in Mrs. Lake’ room on Wednesday at 6:00 P.M. At the meeting, we will talk about which roads are the dirtiest as a result of people's unkind acts. Then we' ll try to pick an area to adopt and clean.
I look forward to seeing you at the meeting. Remember to keep our roads clean!
1.What is the purpose of this speech?
A. To introduce the traffic system.
B. To tell a story about adopting a pet.
C. To show drivers how to drive safely.
D. To encourage students to join the program.
2.What is the Adopt-a-Highway Program about?
A. Giving names to the highways.
B. Picking up litter along the roads.
C. Drawing pictures of highways.
D. Putting up signs near the roads.
3.What should the students do first if they want to join the program?
A. Go to a meeting on Wednesday.
B. Pick a spot to care for.
C. Write a letter to their parents.
D. Call Mrs. Lake next week.
4.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. Adopt-a-Pet B. Ways to Protect the Environment
C. Adopt-a-Highway D. Volunteers on Roads

Think about the different ways that people use the wind. You can use it to fly a kite or to sail a boat. Wind is one of our cleanest and richest power sources, as well as one of the oldest. Evidence shows that windmills began to be used in the ancient Iran back in the seventh century BC. They were first introduced to Europe during the 1100s, when armies returned from the Middle East with knowledge of using wind power.
For many centuries, people used windmills to grind(磨碎)wheat into flour or pump water from deep underground. When electricity was discovered in the late 1800s, people living in remote areas began to use them to produce electricity. This allowed them to have electric lights and radios. However, by the 1940s when electricity was available to people in almost all areas of the United States, windmills were rarely used.
During the 1970s, people started becoming concerned about the pollution that is created when coal and gas are burned to produce electricity. People realized that the supply of coal and gas would not last forever. Then, wind was rediscovered, though it means higher costs. Today, there is a global movement to supply more and more of our electricity through the use of wind.
1.From the text we know that windmills _______.
A. were invented by European armies
B. have a history of more than 2,800 years
C. have rarely been used since electricity was discovered
D. used to supply power to radio in remote area
2.The underlined word in Paragraph 2 probably means________.
A. making something cleaner
B. making something flow freely
C. making something flow in a particular direction
D. making something into small parts
3.One of the reasons wind was discovered in the 1970s is that_______.
A. it is one of the oldest power sources
B. wind power is cleaner
C. it was cheaper to create energy from wind
D. coal and gas failed to meet the needs
4.What would the author probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?
A. The global trend towards producing power from wind.
B. The design of wind power plants.
C. The worldwide movement to save energy.
D. The advantages of wind power.
