Recently our class have had a heat discussion on whether the score of English should be reduced by 100. Opinions concerned this hot topic vary from person to person.
Some students in favor of it. They thought reducing the score may be a good chance for our students, we are supposed to attach much important to Chinese. It is no need for every student to learn English so hard.
However, others disagree with it. They think it’s English that play an important role in international communication. In their opinion, reduce the English score isn’t a wise choice.
Personally, I agree with the latter.
阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(不多于3个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

Some Ways to Deal With Hardship and Pain in Life
Regardless of the difficulties you may face, it’s getting back up and moving forward that counts the most when you need to deal with hardship. 1.
Write or talk about how you feel
Keeping my feelings to myself used to make me feel lonely, but when I found someone who actually cared about me, it became natural to share how I felt with him and that contributed to my ability to overcome troublesome situations. 2. Although talking to strangers about your issues may seem crazy, it actually isn’t.
3.
It is said that running away from your problems will never help, and though that’s partially true, it doesn’t mean that you need to make yourself go so deeply into a situation that you run out of air to breathe and lose the ability to weigh the pros and cons of your choices. That happens more than we like to admit, which is why it’s important to separate yourself from a situation long enough to think clearly without having people hanging over your shoulders.
Remind yourself that you’re not alone
Regardless of who or what you depend on, you need to remind yourself that you are not alone; you have people who do care. 4. Sometimes it’s strangers who may share the same feelings as you do. Think about it—you may not know any of these readers personally but they could be in the exact same situation as you, so in fact, no one is truly alone.
Accept the results and get back up again
5. Whether the results of your choices proved to be helpful or not, it’s time for you to accept them and get back up. This time you have a new experience to add to your book of life so the next time something tries to knock you down, it won’t be easy because you will be strong and determined to push forward. Life will go on, time will never stand still, and it rests upon you to make the right decision of moving forward.
A. Separate yourself from the situation.
B. Tell yourself to accept the hardship.
C. Finally, it’s time to accept what has happened.
D. All in all, remember that life is short.
E. Not only did I speak to him about how I felt, but I decided to blog about it.
F. Here are some things I've tried just to help me believe in a brighter future and get over a tough situation.
G. Even if it’s just one person, that’s enough to give you reason to remind yourself that you will never truly be alone.
We know that cigarette smoking kills. So, producers made electronic cigarettes as a safer smoking choice ---- safer than tobacco. Although e-cigarettes contain the drug nicotine like cigarettes, they do not use tobacco and you do not light them. They are powered by battery.
However, if e-cigarettes are so safe, why has the United States Center for Disease Control(CDC)seen an increase in telephone calls about e-cigarette poisonings?
The answer is children. Most of the calls are from people worried about children who have played with the devices. In the period of one month this year, the Center said 215 people called the Center with e-cigarette concerns. More than half of these calls were for children aged five and younger. The devices had made them sick.
Tim McAfee is director of the Center's Office on Smoking and Health. He says the problem is regulation, meaning, the U. S. federal government does not control e-cigarettes even though they contain liquid nicotine. Mr. McAfee adds that liquid nicotine is a well-known danger. Mr. McAfee explains that nicotine poisoning happens when it gets into the skin, gets into the eyes or is swallowed. It can cause stomach pain or a sense of unbalance. And too much nicotine can kill.
Tim McAfee says e-cigarettes do not create the level of risk to people that tobacco products do. He notes that almost 500,000 Americans die each year from cigarettes. "So, cigarettes are the winner in that contest." E-cigarettes do not contain hundreds of harmful chemicals that are found in real cigarettes. So, the U. S. Surgeon General Boris D. Lushniak has suggested that e-cigarettes may be a useful tool for adults trying to end their tobacco use.
But McAfee worries that teenagers may think electronic cigarettes are harmless. They could become addicted to the nicotine and then start smoking real cigarettes. In other words, he fears that for young people fake e-cigarettes could be a "gateway" to the real thing.
1.What do the producers think of e-cigarettes?
A. Dangerous. B. Expensive.
C. Safer. D. Cheaper.
2.Why did the CDC receive so many calls about e-cigarettes?
A. Parents feared that their children might get poisoned.
B. Parents found the device useless in quitting smoking.
C. Children swallowed the liquid nicotine from the device.
D. Children might get addicted to playing with the device.
3.It can be inferred from the passage that .
A. the CDC wants to develop a better type of e-cigarettes
B. the government is in favor of the use of e-cigarettes
C. Surgeon General Boris D. Lushniak is a heavy smoker
D. smokers most probably can't quit smoking using e-cigarettes
4.What is Tim McAfee's opinion about smoking?
A. Adults should use harmless e-cigarettes.
B. Smoking e-cigarettes can make a person sick.
C. He claims that regulations should be made to ban smoking.
D. He is concerned about the teens using e-cigarettes.
