Once upon a time there was a rich man. He had a lot of money, but he felt unhappy all the times. Finally, the rich man left for home to look for happiness. He visited many places and met many rich men. All of them said they were not happy, too. On his way home, the rich man saw a farmer work in the field. He went up to the farmer and asked, “Could you tell me if you felt happy?” “Yes, I’m quite happier. I always feel satisfying about everything in my life,” the farmer answered. “Please tell me how you find happiness,” asked the rich man.

I’ve been keeping an English blog for many years. These practical tips have helped me over the course of my blogging.

● Read quality books, blogs, journals, etc. which are written in English. Blogging is not always about writing.      76    Reading also improves your English comprehension, grammar, spelling, vocabulary and writing.

● Practice helps, so continue writing.      77      Trying to make a perfect post (帖子) free from grammar and spelling mistakes is good but you’re not making use of your time efficiently (有效地).

●      78     Think about the main points you want to raise. I prepare an outline of my post and a list of the points I want to talk about. Doing this has helped me stay on track and focus on my main points. The outline and the list of points I want to write about serve as my guidelines when I’m writing.

● When writing, use simple words and sentences. Using simple sentences makes your job as a blogger easier.      79      Always remember this: The aim of your writing is to get your message across and the only way to become an effective writer is successfully conveying your message to your readers.

● Write your posts ahead of time.      80     To free yourself from the pressure of making a post on daily basis, which might affect your writing, consider making your posts ahead of time.

A. Also, it makes your posts more understandable to your readers.

B. Welcome comments from your blog readers.

C. There are benefits of daily blogging but if it becomes tiring, forget about it.

Plant cloning has been an agricultural technique used by farmers and gardeners for centuries. Grafting (嫁接) is a common form of plant cloning. Many plants in nature actually clone themselves and reproduce asexually.

Cloned plants are much more predictable than normal plants, so their yield (产量) is more reliable. Cloned plants also reproduce faster, limiting the amount of time between planting and harvesting. It is also often cheaper to produce seeds through cloning than through traditional methods. Plants can essentially be optimized so that farmers or individual growers always have the best seeds available. With more yield at a faster rate, farms can produce more food for more people while decreasing overall costs.

Cloning can be used to wipe out diseases that previously killed off entire fields of crops. This would make plants immune (免疫的) to the kinds of diseases that farmers and gardeners around the world fear each year. Crop failures due to disease and virus could become a thing of the past. Also, plants that are near extinction can be brought back to life through cloning.

Through cloning scientists can develop “super” fruits and vegetables of superior nutritional quality. This could make for a healthier population overall. This is already being done through selective pollination (授粉), and genetic cloning could take it to the next level.

By plant cloning we have a population of identical plants and all these plants equally suffer from the same diseases, but in nature the weak would die and the strong would survive. While there are some dangers to consider with plant cloning, there are plenty of benefits that could prove vital to the propagation (繁衍) of the human species.

Ask a teacher to name the most annoying invention of recent years and they will often mention the mobile phone. Disturbed by the problems they create, many head teachers have ordered that pupils should keep their phones switched off at school. Others have told pupils to leave them at home.

However, education researchers at The University of Nottingham believe it is time that phone bans were reassessed, because mobile phones can be a powerful learning aid, they say. Dr Elizabeth Hartnell-Young and her colleagues have reached this conclusion after studying the consequences of allowing pupils in five secondary schools to use either their own mobile phones or the new generation of ‘smartphones’ in lessons.

During the nine-month experiment, 14- to 16-year-old pupils used the phones for a wide range of educational purposes, including creating short movies, setting homework reminders, recording a teacher reading a poem, and timing experiments with the phones’ stopwatches. The smartphones, which could be connected to the Internet, also allowed pupils to access revision websites, log into the school email system, or transfer (转存) electronic files between school and home.

The research involved 331 pupils in schools in Cambridgeshire, West Berkshire and Nottingham. “At the start of the study, even pupils were often surprised at the thought that mobile phones could be used for learning,” Dr Hartnell-Young said. “After their hands-on experience, almost all pupils said they had enjoyed the project and felt more inspired.”

Some teachers found that pupils who lacked confidence gained most from the project. However, they recognised that greater use of mobile phones in schools could cause problems.

64. We can infer from the first paragraph that       .                 

     A. teachers are strongly against students owning mobile phones

     B. mobile phones should be developed to meet students’ needs

                               C. students are free to use their mobile phones at school

    D. mobile phones are usually forbidden to be used at school

65. When the students first used mobile phones for learning, they       .

     A. all enjoyed the project very much

     B. didn’t know what they were used for

    C. didn’t fully realize the learning functions of mobile phones      

     D. were surprised that they were allowed to use mobile phones in schools

66. Who benefited most from the project?

     A. Older pupils.                             B. Pupils who were not confident.

     C. Younger pupils.                         D. Pupils who were confident.

67. The purpose of the text is to tell us that       .

     A. mobile phones can actually help students learn

     B. mobile phones begin to be widely used in schools

     C. too much use of mobile phones in schools can cause problems

     D. the mobile phone is considered the most annoying invention of recent years

Owning pet birds is not just feeding them when necessary. You have to be very responsible if you have decided to keep birds as pets. If you really want to acquire a companion, think in advance whether you are able to handle it.

Depending on what pet bird you are going to have and how big it is, the cost is different. For example, the cost of a comfortable cage, the cost for nutritional food and the money for some additional things should be taken into consideration. There are also some unexpected cost. For example, when your pet bird gets sick, you have to send for a vet (兽医).

You may think that you do not have free time to have a dog so you’d better have a pet bird because it doesn’t require a lot of attention. You are wrong! Some people even do not have time for a short sleep. They will not have enough time for pets, either. For good bird health it is very important to handle them and play with them as much as you can.

Also there are a lot of people who think that birds do not require a lot of space and they are wrong again. They also need to fly so if you do not have space for it, you’d better reconsider the things.

But do not forget the great advantage of having a pet bird. In the animal kingdom, birds rank near the top when it comes to smarts. You can have a friend for life if you take good care of it. It’s a real character and can bring joy and colour in your home.

     B. The reasons for keeping a pet bird.

                               C. Things to consider if you want to keep a pet bird.

     B. some cost of keeping a pet bird is unnecessary

     C. it is very easy to calculate the cost of having a pet bird
