Dear Mike,
I’m glad to know that you are coming to China with your parents and spend the Spring Festival here. The Spring Festival is one of the most important traditional festivals in China. It has a long history. It is said that ancient people celebrated it to drive a demon, Nian away. It falls on the first day of the lunar year and lasts 15 days. During the Spring Festival, we have many activities. People usually put on couplets and set off firecrackers. Children are most excited because they can receive lucky money.
As for my family, it’s a time of reunion and relaxation. In the evening before the Spring Festival, all my relatives will get together and have a big meal. During the following days we not only visit our friends but also go to temple fairs to buy all kinds of things. All of us enjoy this festival and I’m sure you will have fun if you come.
Hope to see you soon!

【题目】 I wasn't interested in becoming a model at first. I worked as a receptionist in a beauty shop during high school. It was in South Dakota. A woman who had worked for Vogue—a famous fashion magazine said to me, “Why don't you go to New York and be a model?”
So I went to New York at eighteen. I went to the first model agency, they thought that I was too long-waisted. It was too bad since I came all the way from South Dakota. I did an information check on the internet and found that Hunting Hartford had just bought the agency. I looked up in the telephone book and dialed. Then I went there. About half an hour later, the man who had just taken over the agency—he had been a male model before—came in. I was just staring at this unfamiliar man when he said, “You! Come into my office!”
How do you feel as a fashion model? Quite OK, I should say. But you stop thinking when you are working. It takes a lot of nervous energy as well because the camera goes one, two, three very fast and you have to move very fast. I like my job because it gives me freedom. I can have half a day off to do things I like. I can't do that if I do a normal job. I never like becoming a secretary. They have to sit in the office for eight hours a day, facing the same people.
Most models, after one or two years, can't be still very interested in it. But I like being a model. Maybe I was a born one, as many people say.
【1】Who inspired the author's desire to become a model?
A. A woman customer in the beauty shop.
B. Hunting Hartford.
C. The author herself.
D. The author's father.
【2】Why didn't the author return to South Dakota when she was first refused?
A. Because she had a strong desire to become a model.
B. Because she liked to be a receptionist at a beauty shop.
C. Because Hunting Hartford asked her not to go back.
D.Because South Dakota is far away from New York.
【3】Why did the author like being a model?
A. Because she liked the woman customer.
B. Because she liked the freedom.
C. Because she liked to have a regular work schedule.
D. Because she liked Hunting Hartford.
【4】What can we learn from the passage?
A. Perseverance leads to your success.
B. Finding a job you like to do is important.
C. Both A and B.
D. Becoming a model is quite easy.

【题目】So much to do, so little time. So much information, so little time to read it. In this age there is more information than ever before. There is not enough time to read everything we want to read. However, you can consume more information in shorter time through speed-reading.
The first thing about speed-reading is looking at the word and recognizing it. Don’t say the word in your mind, just look at it and recognize its importance. Later you will recognize clumps of four words or more to increase your speed. This is the first and most important step in speed-reading.
The next step is technique. As with any other skill, speed-reading requires technique. You should first be sitting up straight with your book flat on a horizontal (水平的) surface such as a table or a desk. Next, you should be able to see the entire page. This is necessary if you want to recognize clumps of words. Lastly, you should be focused. It is hard to read with a lot of noise. Find a quiet place to read.

You need something to guide your eyes while reading. You should use your finger. Move your finger smoothly across the page. Keep your eyes focused on the words as you recognize them while using your finger as a guide. This will increase your speed.
The third step is practice. Practice makes perfect. Read using different techniques, but make sure you understand what you are reading.
【1】From the first paragraph, we know that _______.
A. there is more limited information than ever before
B. conditions ask people to use less time to know more information

【题目】Driving to a friend’s house on a recent evening, I was attracted by the sight of the full moon rising just above my friend’s rooftop. I stopped to watch it for a few moments, thinking about what a pity it is that most city people --- myself included --- usually miss sights like this because we spend most of our lives indoors.
My friend had also seen it. He grew up living in a forest in Europe, and the moon meant a lot to him then. It had touched much of his life.
I know the feeling. Last December I took my seven-year-old daughter to the mountainous jungle of northern India with some friends. We stayed in a forest rest house with no electricity or running hot water. Our group had campfires outside every night, and indoors when it was too cold outside. The moon grew to its fullest during our trip. Between me and the high mountains lay three or four valleys. Not a light shone in them and not a sound could be heard. It was one of the quietest places I have ever known, a bottomless well of silence. And above me was the full moon, which struck me deeply.
Today our lives are filled with glass, metal, plastic and fiber-glass. We have television, cell phones, electricity, heaters and ovens and air-conditioners, cars, computers.
Struggling through traffic that evening at the end of a tiring day, most of it spent indoors, I thought, “Before long, I would like to live in a small cottage. There I will grow vegetables and read books and walk in the mountains. And perhaps write, but not in anger. I may become an old man there, and wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled and measure out my life in coffee spoons. But I will be able to walk outside on a cold silent night and touched the moon.”
【1】The best title for the passage would be _________.
A. Break away from Modern life
B. Touched by the Moon
C. A Bottomless well of Silence
D. The Pleasures of Modern Life
【2】The writer felt sorry for himself because __________.
A. there was too much pollution.
B. there were too many accidents on the road.
C. he failed to see the fullest moon.
D. he didn’t adapt to modern inventions
【3】Modern things are mentioned mainly to ___________.
A. show that the writer likes city life very much.
B. explain that people have less chances to enjoy nature.
C. tell us that people greatly benefit from modern life.
D. show that we can also enjoy nature at home through them.
【4】The author wrote the passage to __________.
A. show the love for the moonlight.
B. want to communicate longing for modern life.
C. advise modern people to learn to live.
D. express the feeling of returning to nature.

【题目】Dr. Michael Prager, a leading Botox expert, said that a growing number of women are developing something called “computer face”. He also mentioned that professionals who worked long hours in front of a screen were ending up with saggy jowls(颚骨), “turkey neck” and deep-set wrinkles on their forehead and around their eyes.
The Botox expert said that, of all his clients, office workers were most likely to show premature(过早的)signs of ageing. “If you are one of the unfortunate people who frown(皱眉)while you are concentrating on the screen then, over time, you will inevitably end up with frown lines,” Dr. Prager said. “What is perhaps more surprising is the number of women with saggy jowls because they are sitting in one position for so long. If you spend most of the time looking down then the neck muscles shorten and go saggy, eventually giving you a second neck. “
Dr. Prager, who has a practice near Harley Street in London, said he encourages his clients to put a mirror next to their computer so they can see if they are frowning at the screen. “When people are stressed or thinking hard about something, then they will often put on a ‘grumpy(脾气暴躁的)face’ without even knowing what they are doing. When my clients put a mirror next to their desk, they are often shocked by the angry, frowning face which stares back at them.”
He said, “The women I am seeing at the moment have only been using computers at work for the last decade or so. But women in their 20s have grown up with them and use them for every single task. I think the problem is going to become much, much worse. In another ten years, they could be looking quite awful.”
Dr. Prager said there were several simple steps which could avoid “computer face” such as regular screen breaks and stretching the neck muscles. And, of course, there was always Botox. He said that, after a couple of sessions of Botox, the habit of “grumpy face” could be broken.
【1】In what way do women develop a “computer face”?
A. Frowning every now and then.
B. Concentrating on computers frequently.
C. Working for too long in front of a screen.
D. Sitting in the same place for a long time.
【2】According to the passage, which of the following are signs of ageing?
A. Saggy jowls and short necks.
B. Turkey neck and frown lines.
C. Deep-set wrinkles and angry faces.
D. Second neck and stressed muscles.
【3】From the last 2 paragraphs, we can learn that ______.
A. “computer face” is avoidable
B. we should give up using computers
C. we should break the habit of “grumpy face”
D. the younger generation is worse at computers

【题目】Life is filled with challenges.As we get older we come to realize that those challenges are the very things that shape us and make us who we are,it is the same with the challenges that come with friendship.When we are faced with a challenge,we usually have two choices.We can try to beat it off, or we can decide that the thing presenting the challenge isn’t worth the trouble and call it quits.Although there are certainly times when calling it quits is the right thing to do,in most cases all that is needed is commitment(承诺)and communication.
When we are committed to something, it means that no matter how painful or how uncomfortable something is,we will always choose to face it through instead of running away from it.Communication is making a space for discussion and talking about how you feel as opposed to just saying what the other person did wrong.If you can say to a friend,“I got my feelings hurt.” rather than“You hurt my feelings.”you are going to be able to solve the problem much faster.
In dealing with many challenges that friendship will bring to you, try to see them for what they are:small hurdles you need to jump or get through on your way through life.Nothing is so big that it is impossible to get over, and hurt only serves to make us stronger.It is all part of growing up,it happens to everyone,and some day you will look back on all of this and say,“Hard as it was,it made me who I am today.And that is a good thing.”
