Martin Lynch，an American businessman，had been going on vacation to a small Mexican fishing village for a number of years. One morning while going for a walk along the beach, he saw his friend Pablo Perez, a local fisherman. Martin watched Pablo unload his boat and pack the fish in a box. Martin noticed Pablo was smiling and looked very happy. He could also see several large fish in the boat. Martin greeted Pablo and asked how long it took to catch the fish. “Just a few hours,” replied Pablo. Martin asked，“Why didn’t you stay longer and catch more fish?” “I have enough for my family，” Pablo said. “And what do you do with the rest of your day?” asked Martin. “ I take a nap, play with my children, spend time with my wife, and go into the village to see my friends and play cards. I have a full and busy life.” Martin explained that if Pablo worked longer hours and caught more fish, he could make more money. With the extra money, Pablo could buy more boats and catch more fish. By selling the fish, Pablo could open his own factory and sell direct to supermarkets “Then what?” asked Pablo, “Well you would probably have to move to Mexico City to run the business. Finally, you would be able to sell your business and make millions of dollars，”replied Martin. “How long will that take?” asked Pablo. Martin thought for a while and said it would probably take at least 15 years. “And then what?” asked Pablo. “Well，that’s the best part，’’ Martin said. “You will be able to retire，buy a house near the ocean, sleep longer, play with your children, spend more time with your wife, see your friends，and play cards. ” 1.What makes the Mexican fisherman happy is __________.

My summer hols wr CWOT. B4, we usd 2 go 2 NY 2C my bro, his GF & thr 3:-@ kids FTF ILNY, its gr8. Can you understand this sentence? If you can't, don't feel too bad: neither could the middle school teacher in England who received this as homework. This is Net speak: the language of computerized communication found on Internet or cell phones. To newcomers, it can look like a completely foreign language. So, what is the "translation" of the sentence above? My summer holidays were a complete waste of time. Before, we used to go to New York to see my brother, his girlfriend, and their three screaming kids face to face. I love New York; it's great. Schoolteachers and parents say this new form of writing is harming（破坏）the English language. Increasing spelling and grammatical mistakes can be seen in students' writing. They fear the language could become corrupted（面目全非）. Everyone should just relax, say linguists（语言学家）. They believe Net speak is in fact more of a good thing. David Crystal, from the University of Wales, argues that Net speak and Internet create a new language use and the almost lost art of diary writing has been picked up again. Geoffrey Nurnberg, from Stanford University, agrees. "People get better at writing by writing," he says, "Kids who are now doing text messages, e-mail, and instant messages will write at least as well as, and possibly better than, their parents." Linguist James Milroy says, for centuries, it is believed without exception that young people are harming the language. And you can bet your bottom dollar that when today's teenagers become tomorrow's parents, they too will think this way. Milroy argues that languages do not and cannot become "corrupted"; they simply change to meet the new needs. However, Net speakers do agree that it is important to teach young people how to speak and write Standard（标准） English. Cynthia McVey says, "I can understand Net speak worries teachers and it's important that they get across to their pupils that text messaging is for fun, but that learning to write proper English is a must（绝对必要的事物）for their future." Perhaps we should give teenagers a little more trust anyway. Erin, age 12, says, "I wouldn't use text language in my homework. Texting is just for fun". 1.What is the main purpose of the first paragraph? A.To give an example of a foreign language. B. To show an example of creative methods. C. To express worries about using Net speak. D. To lead in the topic of Net speak. 2.Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. Cynthia McVey points out teenagers can deal with Net speak properly. B. Geoffrey Nurnberg believes Net speakers can write Standard English. C. David Crystal thinks Net speak helps develop the habit of writing. D. James Milroy says that language is changing and improving. 3.The expression "bet your bottom dollar" in Paragraph 5 means ______. A .be fairly sure B. be greatly surprised C. think it a pity D. find it interesting 4.What can be the best title for the passage? A. Net speak: A Widely-Used Language on Internet B. Is Net speak Harming the English Language? C. Is Net speak Helpful in Language Learning? D. Net speak: Advantages and Disadvantages

I am Simon. When I was about 12, I had an enemy（敌人）, a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings（缺点）. Sometimes she said I was thin. Sometimes she said I was lazy. Sometimes she said I wasn’t a good student. Sometimes she said I talked too much, and so on. I tried to put up with her as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes. He listened to me quietly, and then he asked, “Are the things she said true or not? Mary, didn’t you ever wonder what you’re really like? Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.” I did as he told me and to my surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. I brought the list back to my dad. He refused to take it. “That’s just for you,” he said. “You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. When something said about you is true, you’ll find it will be helpful to you. Don’t shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you think is right.” Many years have passed. The situation often appears in my mind. In our life we often meet with some trouble and we often go to someone and ask for advice. For some advice you will treasure all your life! 1.Why did Simon dislike the girl? _____________________________________________________________________________ 2.What did Simon’s father ask him to do after hearing his complaints（抱怨）? _____________________________________________________________________________ 3.How did the writer feel when he did the things as his father had told him? _____________________________________________________________________________ 4.What do you think of Simon’s father? _____________________________________________________________________________ 5.If you are in trouble at school, what will you do?（自拟作答） _____________________________________________________________________________
