I’m Tom, a British exchange student at Yucai High School. I am planning to take a six-day tour of Dali and Lijiang, Yunnan Province, starting from February 21.
I’d like to find an outgoing and enthusiastic companion from a Chinese high school, who has a good knowledge of Chinese culture, especially about Yunnan local minorities. Besides, it would be nice if you have some experience in traveling. Above all, your good command of English will make sure free communication between us can happen. I sincerely hope we can relax, enjoy ourselves, make friends as well as improve our cross-cultural communication skills during this experience.

Looking forward to meeting you!
【解析】这是一篇广告文写作。主要说明自己对旅伴的要求，以及希望从这次活动中能够得到一些收获。题目已经给定大致内容，写作时要注意适当增加内容，以保证文章的连贯性。第二段第一句” I’d like to find an outgoing and enthusiastic companion from a Chinese high school, who has a good knowledge of Chinese culture,”使用了定语从句来修饰companion，使得表达更加的丰富，有层次。第二段第三句” it would be nice if you have some experience in traveling.”运用了if从句，语气显得委婉，更容易让人接受。同时句子与句子之间用”especially”、”besides”、”above all”等不同的副词来连接，显得不单调。第二段倒数第二句，使用sincerely比用really更文雅。第二段最后一句“I sincerely hope we can relax, enjoy ourselves, make friends as well as improve our cross-cultural communication skills during this experience.”运用了as well as 句型来连接两个句子，比光用and来连接更好，让人感觉表达更书面化。最后要把联系方式写出来，这样作文就完整了。
考点：考查广告文写作。

This might not sound so extraordinary, but I didn’t just read a book in print, on an e-reader or even on a mobile phone. Instead, I read a book on dozens of devices(设备). I was not trying to set a Guinness world record. I wanted to answer a question I often hear: which e-reader or tablet（平板）is the best for reading books? So I set out to try them all, reading a chapter on each: the Amazon Kindle, the first and second generation Apple iPads and mobile phones. To be fair, I also read a chapter in that old-fashioned form — an old print paperback.
The book I chose was The Alienist. For the first chapter, I turned to an Amazon Kindle. Shopping on Amazon for the Kindle is simple; you go to Amazon’s Web site and buy the book, which is then sent to any devices with Kindle software installed(安装). Reading on the Amazon Kindle is a joy in many aspects. The Kindle is light．Its six-inch screen is the perfect size for reading, and reading on its black and white E Ink display doesn’t harm your eyes. Battery life is outstanding; on average you charge the device only once a month. My only complaint with the Kindle design is the placement of the keyboard at the bottom of the device. Amazon’s CEO has noted during past product announcements that the keyboard is there to help people take notes or search. But to me，it seems like a waste of space.
Despite the small screen on a mobile phone, I find reading on one to be simple and satisfactory. All of the mobile phones on which I read chapters felt somewhat similar; although screen brightness and the size of the phone’s screen did vary.
If I had wanted to, I could have bought my book through dozens of e-book apps (应用程序) in the Apple App Store. Most are free and offer access to thousands of free e-books or paid versions. But the big downside for many is that you can read them only on Apple devices. Both iPads 1＆2 offer an immersive（沉浸式）reading experience. I found myself jumping back and forth between my book and the Web, looking up old facts and pictures of New York City. I also found myself being sucked into the wormhole of the Internet and a few games of Angry Birds rather than reading my book. For the last chapters of the book, I read the paperback, which is still my favourite choice.
Since we are comparing devices so I guess I need to choose one. In the end it might come down to Kindle. But if money is tight, go for print. My used paperback cost only＄4 from Amazon.
1.If the writer were short of money, he would prefer ______.
A. a print paperback B. an Apple iPad
C. a mobile phone D. an Amazon Kindle
2.According to the passage, which of the following statements on the Amazon Kindle is NOT TRUE?
A. Its battery can last for a long time.
B. Its keyboard is kept in the proper position.
C. It is easy to carry and the screen size is proper.
D. It is comfortable for eyes because of its E Ink display.
3.A possible customer would not buy iPads 1 & 2 for reading because ______.
A. most e-book apps must be downloaded first
B. only paid-version e-books can be read on it
C. much information is lost at times when reading
D. attention is easily taken away when reading on it
4.The passage is developed in the form of ______.

Hybrid cars （混合动力车） are cars that run on petrol and electricity. They have a small standard petrol engine and a battery (电池) electric motor to provide electric power.
There are some differences between different models of hybrid cars, but the general principle is that the car runs on petrol, and the electric motor kicks in when additional power is required, for example, when going uphill or accelerating. In some hybrid cars the petrol engine turns itself off when not needed, for example when the car has stopped at traffic light, keeping only the electric engine running.
Conventional cars have large engines to deal with driving uphill and accelerating. Hybrid cars have much smaller petrol engines, improved by electric motors when needed, so they use less petrol. Another way that fuel consumption is cut is by a system of "regenerative (再生的) braking". The electric motor is used to slow down the car, rather than conventional brakes. The energy produced by slowing the car is changed into electrical power, which is automatically stored in the battery. In effect, the battery recharges when you brake. In conventional cars the energy produced when braking is wasted.
In 1928 Ferdinand Porsche built an experimental hybrid car. The first mass-produced hybrid car, the Toyota Prius, came out in Japan at the end of 1997. However, hybrid cars became available in the USA only in 1999. As they use less fuel, hybrid cars are cheaper to run. There are also many voices in place to encourage people to buy them. In some countries, hybrid car owners pay a lower rate of tax, and don't have to pay on certain roads. In some cities, hybrid cars are allowed to park for free.
1. Hybrid cars consume less energy than conventional cars because hybrid cars _____.
A. have large engines to deal with accelerating
B. have conventional brakes to slow down the car
C. have electric power to assist when needed
D. have no energy consumption when stopping
2. In regenerative braking, _____.
A. energy wasted in conventional cars is stored in the battery
B. the conventional brakes are used to slow down the car
C. the battery charges itself when the car is accelerating
D. the petrol engine is usually turned off automatically
3.From the last paragraph we can learn that Hybrid cars ____.
A. were first available in the USA
B. will gain more popularity
C. free their owners from tax
D. are free to park anywhere in the city
4. The main purpose of this text is to_____.
A. show haw hybrid cars slow down
B. encourage people to buy hybrid cars
C. inform people a kind of energy-saving cars
D. explain why hybrid cars use less energy

Our risk of cancer rises rapidly as we age. So it makes sense that the elderly should be routinely screened(拍片检查) for new tumors (肿瘤) or doesn’t it?
While such tracking of cancer is a good thing in general, researchers are increasingly questioning whether all of this testing is necessary for the elderly. With the percentage of people over age 65 expected to nearly double by 2050, it s important to weigh the health benefits of screening against the risks and costs of routine testing.
In many cases, screening can lead to additional examinations and operations to remove cancer, which can cause side effects, while the cancers themselves may be slow-growing and may not cause serious health problems in patients’ remaining years. But the message that everyone must screen for cancer has become so ingrained (根深蒂固的) that when health care experts recommended that women under 50 and over 74 stop screening for breast cancer, it caused a noisy reaction among doctors, patients and social groups.
It’s hard to uproot deeply-held beliefs about cancer screening with scientific data. Certainly, there are people over age 75 who have had cancers detected by routine screening, and gained several extra years of life because of treatment. And clearly, people over age 75 who have other risk factors for cancer, such as a family history or previous personal experience with the disease, should continue to get screened regularly. But for the rest, the risk of cancer, while increased at the end of life, must be balanced with other factors like remaining life expectancy.
A recent study suggests that doctors start to make more objective decisions about who will truly benefit from screening—especially considering the explosion of the elderly.
It’s not an easy calculation to make, but one that makes sense for patients. Dr. Otis Brawley said, “Many doctors are ordering these tests purely to cover themselves from medical disputes（争端）. We need to think about the wise use of health care, which means making some difficult decisions with elderly patients, and going against the misguided belief that when it comes to health care, more is always better.”
1. Routine cancer screening for the elderly people makes sense because ______.
A. it is believed to contribute to a long life
B. it is part of their health care package
C. they are more sensitive about the health
D. they are in greater danger of tumor growth
2.How do some researchers now look at routine cancer screening for the elderly?
A. It adds too much to their medical bills.
B. They are doubtful about its necessity.
C. It helps increase their life expectancy.
D. They think it does more harm than good.
3. What is the traditional view about women screening for breast cancer?
A. It is a must for adult women.
B. It applies to women over 50.
C. It is intended for young women.
D. It doesn’t apply to women over 74.
4.What does the writer say is the general view about health care?
A. Better care, longer life.
B. Prevention is better than cure.
C. Better early than late.
D. The more, the better.
