参考词汇: 广场舞 square dance 组织者organizers
【答案】
Dear Sir,
I am writing to tell you something about the people doing the square dance in our community, which has made me terribly upset.
Recently, every morning and evening, many people gather to dance in our community square :which does help to keep healthy. However, the long-time dancing and the noise pollution caused by the loudspeaker really bring about unbearable inconveniences.
We can’t rest or sleep well. As a result, the students are not only late for school but also sleepy in class, and the workers are easily tired out while working.
Here are some suggestions to solve the problem. They are supposed either to shorten the dancing time and reduce the music noise or to make another choice of dancing places. Only in this way can they have fun and let others enjoy life.
Would you please communicate with the organizers about what I said?
Best wishes
Sincerely yours,
Li Hua

【题目】阅读理解。
Today, roller skating is easy and fun. But a long time ago, it wasn’t easy at all. Before 1750, the idea of skating didn’t exist. That changed because of a man named Joseph Merlin. Merlin’s work was making musical instruments. In his spare time he liked to play the violin. Joseph Merlin was a man of ideas and dreams. People called him a dreamer.
One day Merlin received an invitation to attend a fancy dress ball. He was very pleased and a little excited. As the day of the party came near, Merlin began to think how to make a grand entrance at the party. He had an idea. He thought he would get a lot of attention if he could skate into the room.
Merlin tried different ways to make himself roll. Finally, he decided to put two wheels under each shoe. These were the first roller skates. Merlin was very proud of his invention and dreamed of arriving at the party on wheels while playing the violin.
On the night of the party Merlin rolled into the room playing his violin. Everyone was greatly surprised to see him. There was just one problem. Merlin had no way to stop his roller skates. He rolled on and on. Suddenly, he ran into a huge mirror that was hanging on the wall. Down fell the mirror, breaking to pieces. Nobody forgot Merlin’s grand entrance for a long time!
【1】The text is mainly about __________.

【题目】Many Americans are turning to Japan, they think, a country of high academic(学术的) achievement and economic success, for possible answers.However, the answers provided by Japanese preschools are not the ones Americans expected to find. In most Japanese preschools, surprisingly little emphasis is put on academic instruction.In one survey, 300 Japanese and 210 American preschool teachers, child development specialists, and parents were asked about various aspects of early childhood education.Only 2 percent of the Japanese respondents(答问卷者)listed “to give children a good start academically” as one of their top three reasons for a society to have preschools.In contrast, over half the American respondents chose this as one of their top three choices.To prepare children for successful careers in first grade and beyond, Japanese schools do not teach reading, writing, and mathematics, but rather skills such as determination, concentration, and the ability to work as a member of a group.The huge majority of young Japanese children are taught to read at home by their parents.
Like in America, there is diversity(多样性) in Japanese early childhood education.Some Japanese kindergartens have specific aims, such as early musical training or potential(潜力的) development.In large cities, some kindergartens are attached to universities that have elementary and secondary schools.Some Japanese parents believe that if their young children attend a university-based program, it will increase the children’s chances of eventually being admitted to top-rated schools and universities.Several more progressive programs have introduced free play as a way out for the heavy intellectualizing in some Japanese kindergartens.
【1】We learn from the first paragraph that many Americans believe ________.
A. Japanese preschool education emphasizes academic instruction
B. Japanese parents are more involved in preschool education than American parents
C. Japan’s economic success is a result of its scientific achievements
D. Japan’s higher education is superior to theirs
【2】In Japan’s preschool education, the focus is on ________.
A. preparing children academically
B. shaping children’s character
C. teaching children mathematics
D. developing children’s artistic interests
【3】Why do some Japanese parents send their children to university-based kindergartens?
A. They can do better in their future studies.
B. They can make more group experience grow there.
C. They can be individually oriented when they grow up.
D. They can have better chances of getting a first-rate education.
【4】Free play has been introduced in some Japanese kindergartens in order to ________.
A. broaden children’s knowledge
B. train children’s creativity
C. lighten children’s study load
D. enrich children’s experience

Too many of us are waiting too long to live our best lives. We keep putting everything off until tomorrow. Then, before we know it, we find ourselves asking, "How did it get so late so soon?"
So we’d better make today the beginning of our new life. Take time to realize what we want and need. Take time to love, laugh, cry, and learn. ____【1】___ Here are five things we should start doing today:
Accept ourselves. The secret to happiness and success is the acceptance of ourselves. We will never become who we want to be if we rely on everyone else to qualify us. __【2】____ So always go with ourselves, never against ourselves. Be who we were created to be and we will set the world on fire.

____【5】____ We can’t force things to happen; we can only drive ourselves trying crazily. There’s a time and place for everything. So don’t force what’s not yet supposed to fit into our life. When it’s meant to be, it will be. Work hard, and be patient.

【题目】My students often tell me that they don't have "enough time" to do all their schoolwork.
My reply is often a brief "You have as much time as the president." I usually carry on a bit about there being twenty-four hours in the day for everyone, and suggest that "not enough time" is not an acceptable explanation of not getting something done.
Once in graduate school, I tried to prove to one of my professors by saying that I was working hard. His answer to me was, "That's irrelevant (无关的). What's important is the quality of your work." Since then I have had time to think carefully about the "hard worker" dodge (诀窍), and I have come to some conclusions- all relevant to the problem of how much time we have.
If you analyze the matter, you can identify two parts of the problem: There is, of course, the matter of "time", which we can think of as fixed. Then there is the problem of "work" during that time. But, as my professor suggested, it's not how hard one works but the quality of the product that's important.
That led me to a new idea: the quality of the work. That concept is perhaps best explained by a sign I once saw on the wall in someone's office: "Don't work harder. Work smarter." There is a lot of sense in that idea.
If you can't get more time, and few of us can, the only solution is to improve the quality of the work. That means thinking of ways to get more out of the same time than we might otherwise get. That should lead us to an analysis of our work habits. Since "work" for students usually means "homework", the expression "work habits" should be read as "study habits".
Then, as a smart student, you will seek to improve those skills that you use in study, chiefly reading and writing. If you learn to read better and write better, there are big benefits that pay off in all your studies.
【1】From the passage, we know that the author is probably ______.
A. a poet B. an engineer
C. a novelist D. an educator
【2】We can infer from the 2nd paragraph that we students still _____.
A. have enough time
B. can meet the president
C. get everything done well
D. should accept the explanation
【3】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The author's students make good use of their time to do all their homework.
B. The author tried to tell the professor that he/she (author) had done a good job.
C. You can't improve the quality of the work if you can't get more time.
D. You'll try to improve your skills in reading and writing if you're a clever student.
【4】What's the passage mainly about?
A. Students don't have enough time.
B. No one can get more time.
C. Don't work harder; work smarter.
D. Read better and write better.

Hi Grace,
How’s it going? Sorry I haven’t emailed for a while, but I had so much to do!
I had told you about my decision to take up a sport. I knew I wasn’t fit and I wanted to get some exercise. But that wasn’t the only reason that I decided to do a sport. Students who play sports do better at school. 【1】 Exercise also helps learning and memory.
【2】 First, I tried soccer. I had played a bit of soccer before and I thought it wouldn’t be too bad. I knew I couldn’t run for very long without feeling tired. On the first day, I was able to run for the first ten minutes, but then I was so tired that I couldn’t even kick the ball!
Then, I tried volleyball. 【3】 I was able to run for the first twenty minutes and I wasn’t the slowest runner in the team! After a few weeks, I could run faster and longer. I was doing better and feeling better. 【4】 Maybe I’m not a team sport person after all!
Finally, I tried Kung fu. It’s a great sport that exercise the body and the mind. You learn to follow instructions carefully and do what you are asked to do. This is the right sport for me! 【5】 I feel so confident that I even showed some moves to the class last week! Can you believe it?
I hope you’re OK! Write and let me know what you’ve been doing!
Bye for now!
Kristie
A. I got very excited about soccer.
B. But I couldn’t decide on a sport.
C. Running helps me to keep fit.
D. Things were a bit better this time.
E. Then I found volleyball terribly boring.
F. They are more confident and less stressed.
G. I practice twice a week and I haven’t missed a class.

Disability aids are vital to those who suffer problems with executing work with two hands.These are people who have been disabled due to some major sickness or some other problems.In order to help them carry on their work in the normal way, disability aids are manufactured.This helps them make their life a lot easier than what it would have been without these aids.The kind of disability aids that an individual might require depends on the person only.It is the problem that a person faces that decides the aids that he/she will use for carrying out their respective jobs.The following is the list of a few disability aids that come of significant use.
The first and foremost aid is the stocking aid, aiding the individuals suffering from the problem of bending down to reach the foot and wear their own socks.These stocking aids have a gutter(槽) that is made up of plastic material.These gutters are shaped in a certain way along with the attachment of cotton tapes in it.The sock is then put over the gutter.The foot is placed inside the gutter.The cotton tapes help in pulling the socks up the leg and subsequently the sock.In this manner, the sock is worn by a person who has problems wearing it by bending one’s back and reaching the foot.
There are openers that help the people who have problems with their hands or wrists to open bottles of ketchup, jam and other such bottles and jars that necessitates the use of hands and fingers.
The third type of disability aids that comes to our minds are lifts.Now what are lifts? Lifts are certain machines that help in lifting people from specific areas, such as a bathtub or a set of stairs.These lifts are of varied types and come for numerous applications.It is for the individual to decide the type that he/she requires to use.
For people, who have problems in balancing their upper bodies in a stable manner, there is something known as grab rails.These grab rails are installed for those who have mobility problems in their upper bodies.These rails come in varieties of shapes, sizes and angles.These grab rails are available to home users as well, in their different variations.One can purchase and fix one to their homes according to one’s specificities.These grab rails require the act of screwing and drilling in order to fix them to their appropriate place.The prices of these rails also vary according to the variation of their shapes and sizes.
A portable book holder is a much sought-after disability aid.It can be used by anybody for that matter, not just the disabled.These portable book holders are light-weight and can be easily moved about.These holders relieve the strains on one’s hands, necks and shoulders that might occur due to the handling of a book.The holders are provided with extended legs that help in placing the reading material at suitable distance.
Thus with the help of these disability aids, the old and disabled people can make their lives much more convenient and comfortable that would otherwise have been a cumbersome and complex one.
