The third way is to find your strong points and it to others. This is useful when you want to a group. For example, you see boys playing soccer on the school playground.

On the first day of school our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didn’t know. I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder. “Hi, girl! My name is Rose, I’m 87 years old.” “Why are you in college at such a young age?” I asked jokingly. “I always dreamed of having a college education and now I’m getting one!” she replied. Rose became a college symbol this year and she easily made friends with other students. At the end of the term we invited Rose to speak at our football party. I’ll never forget what she taught us. “We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. There are only two secrets to staying young, being happy and achieving success. You have to laugh and find humor every day. You’ve got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you die!” she said. “There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. If you are nineteen years old and lie in bed for one full year and don’t do anything, you will turn 20 years older. If I am 87 years old, and stay in bed for a year, and never do anything, I will turn 88. Anybody can grow older. But every minute counts for young men,” she added. She ended her speech by singing The Song of Rose. She challenged each of us to study the lyrics(歌词) and live then out in our daily lives. At the end of the year, Rose finished the college education she had begun all those years ago. One week after graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep. 1. Rose went to college because she _____________. A. wanted to live longer B. loved to stay with the young C. wanted to realize her dream D. planned to enjoy her life there 2. From the story we can see that Rose was ___________ during her stay in college. A. lively and popular B. brave and hard-working C. honest and energetic D. calm and creative 3.Which of the following is included in Rose’s speech? A. People won’t grow old if they stop playing. B. Time is especially important for young people. C. The more you laugh, the younger you will be. D. People easily become old if they do more things.

I had hidden the long black bag in the garage for the past two days. Tonight, in the dark, I would finally take it away. If everything went OK, it would be done by morning. But I had to be sure no one, not even my wife, saw me. It was more difficult to get away from the party than I expected. I said that the children were tired and needed to get to bed. It was partly true. But the main reason for leaving was that I wanted to complete my plan. First I had to get the kids to sleep. That was never easy at any time and tonight it was even more difficult. The eldest one wanted to know why we left the party early. I told him 10:30 pm was not early. As usual, I read them a bed time story, but I had to stop myself reading too quickly or they would learn my secret. Silence finally came, and feeling like a thief in the night, I went out of the house and into the garage. Taking one end, I dragged(拖拽) the bag out from its hiding place and took it into the garden. I was worried that my neighbours might see me and call the police. It was already eleven o'clock. By the light of the moon I started working, trying to make as little noise as possible. And that was not easy with a saw (锯子) and a hammer. After much effort, my work was finally completed. I looked down at my watch. It was exactly 4:00 am. Then I went inside to have a shower and get a few hours of sleep. It wouldn't be long now before the kids would rush into my room and wake me up to tell me about the new tree-house Father Christmas had brought them this year. 1. Why did the man feel nervous? A. He left the party too late. B. He was afraid of the darkness. C. He worried that others would discover his secret. D. He didn’t know where the black bag was. 2. The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 3 refers to __________. A. thieves B. parents C. children D. neighbours 3.In what order did the man do the following? a. Read the kids a story. b. Had a shower. c. Worked in the moonlight. d. Dragged the bag from the garage. e. Went to a party. A. e-a-d-c-b B. e-d-a-b-c C. a-b-e-d-c D. a-e-d-c-b 4. How long did the man spend completing his work? A. Three hours.B. Four hours. C. Five hours.D. Six hours. 5.How would the children feel when they saw the man’s work? A. Sleepy. B. Angry. C. Tired. D.

Look around and you’ll see people busy on their smartphones. Smartphones do make our lives easier. But have you ever thought about what they mean to your eyes? According to a study, half of British people own smartphones and they spend an average(平均) of two hours a day using them. There has been a 35% increase in the number of people in the UK who suffer from shortsightedness(近视) since smartphones were introduced there in 1997. Staring(盯) at smartphones for long time gives you dry eyes. When looking at something in the distance, your eyes automatically blink(自动眨眼) a certain number of times. However, when you look at things closer to your face, the blinking slows down. This reduces the amount of tears and causes discomfort in your eyes. Another bad habit is using smartphones in dark rooms before going to sleep. If you look at a bright screen while your pupils(瞳孔) become larger, too much light enters your eyes. This can do harm to the eyes and cause a disease called glaucoma(青光眼). While you’re probably not going to stop using to your smartphone, there are a few things you can do to protect your eyes. Hold your phone at least 30 centimetres away from your eyes when using it. Take a break every hour and try the following: look at something at least five meters from you and then focus on the tip of your nose. Repeat this several times. It should reduce the discomfort in your eyes.
1. The article is mainly about ________. A. the harm that smartphones do to users’ eyes B. the rules to obey when using smartphones C. the reason why teenagers get shortsightedness D. advantages and disadvantages of smartphones 2. From Paragraph 2, we learn that _______. A. half of the British people began to smartphones 17years ago B. each of the British people spends two hours a day on smartphones C. more British people have got shortsightedness since 1997 D. the number of British people who own smartphones increases by 35% 3. According to Paragragh 3 , using smartphone improperly may cause ____ A. too many blinks B. dry eyes and glaucoma C. smaller pupils D. more tears in the eyes 4.Which is the follow ing is duggested by the writer? A. Don't use the phone for over an hour without a break B. Hold the phone at least half an meter away from the eyes C. Turn off your phone for a couple of hours every day D. Look at the tip of your nose for several minutes. 5.

Our eating habits are very important for good health and a strong body. There are times when most of us 1. eat sweets and ice cream than meat and rice. Sweets and ice cream are not bad for the stomach if we eat them at the end of a meal. If we eat them before a meal they may 2. our appetite (the wish for food). It's important for us to eat 3. every day .When we feel hungry, it is said that our body needs food. When we feel angry or excited, we may not want to eat. A long time ago, in England, some judges 4. decide whether a man was telling the truth by giving him some dry bread. If the man could not swallow the bread, it was a sign that he wasn’t telling the truth, he was telling lies. Although this seems very strange and foolish, it is indeed an excellent way of 5. the truth. A man who is worrying about something has difficulty in swallowing anything dry.

Making a public speech is the thing that most people don’t want to do. The reason is that we are all afraid of making mistakes in front of others. The more important the speech is, the more frightened we will be. But forget it now. Public speaking is easy. It’s just a simple talking. Although I’m a shy man, I’ve been making speeches and talking on radio and television for more than 30 years. Anybody who can talk can speak in public. Here are some of the lessons I have learned: Keep your speech simple. Your audience can’t take all of your main ideas, and they can only remember one or two of them, not ten or twenty. So you should prepare one or two of your main ideas very well. But if you can’t express what you want to say, then your audience will not pay attention to your speech. And if you don’t have a clear idea of what you want to say, your audience won’t, either. Organize your speech well. No matter how long or short your speech is, you have to organize your speech — how you are going to begin, what main points you want to make and how you’re going to end. A strong end is usually very important and critical(关键的): the last thing you say is what your audience will most likely remember. If not, they will be confused. Keep your speech short. The standard length of a speech is usually 12 minutes. Most people can’t put their minds in one thing for too long time, which will make them tired and lose their interest. If you pay no attention to your audience’s reaction(反应), the audience will get bored. Of course, your speech will fail. Following these suggestions above, you can make a good speech in public, and you will be an excellent speaker, I think. Title: How to make a 1. public speech

Or join someone in some activities. Many people are n 4. when talking to new people. After all, meeting strangers means facing the unknown. And it’s human nature to feel a b 5. unpleasant about the unknown. Most of our fears about dealing with new people come from doubts about ourselves. We imagine other people are judging us or finding us too tall or too short, too this or too that. B 6. don’t forget that they must be feeling the same way. Try to accept y 7. as you are, and try to make others feel at home. You’ll both feel more comfortable. Try to act self-confidently even if you don’t feel that way. W 8. you enter a room full of strangers, such as a new classroom, walk tall and straight, look directly at other people and smile. If you see someone you’d like to speak to, say s 9. . Don’t wait for the other person to start a conversation. Just meeting someone new does not mean that you will make friends with that person.
