Dear Mr Smith,
I am writing to tell you anything about the 10th English Speaking Contest I took part in it last week in our school.
I got the “Top Ten Prize” out of the 30 competitors ,who was completely beyond my imagination. A moment I heard the final result, I couldn’t believe my ears and jumped with joy, feeling amazing. Since the contest, whenever you had free time, you would help me practice my spoken English. You communicated with me, and corrected my pronounce. What’s more, you taught me a lot of speaking skills and made me full of confidence. If you haven’t helped me, I couldn’t have achieved such a good result. I have benefited this contest a lot.
All in all, thank you for which you have done for me.
Yours,
Wang Yuan

I had five hours in the company of First Great Western(FGW) last weekend, on a train full of passengers, all the way from Cornwall to London. I got to know some of my fellow passengers rather well. Not through talking to them, you understand.
There was the youth who was explaining to his friend exactly how he enjoyed a party with his friends last night. Opposite him was a young woman who was very excited to be going to Lanzarote for her summer holiday. And then there was the man who I took to be a car mechanic(汽车修理工); so detailed and technical was his conversation about a second-hand Audi. Everyone had a different, noisy ringtone, and none of the mobile phone conversations I was forced to hear was interesting.
By the end of the journey, I was silently complaining about the modern world, and feeling mad with FGW who, at the very moment when our carriage fell silent, would make an announcement about the buffet car (a carriage where food and drinks are sold) either opening or closing.
FGW seems to be campaigning against peace and quietness, having removed quiet carriage spaces where passengers were requested not to use mobiles so that their trains could carry more passengers. How so? I cannot understand why FGW takes no notice of passengers like me, who have suffered a lot from hearing endless telephone conversations. I have no interest in the smallest details of others’ lives. Making people listen to boring mobile phone conversations should be regarded as a rude act.”
Every train carriage should, in theory, be quiet. Why can’t that be the standard? It is possible to change public custom and practice. It was not so long ago that sidewalks were littered with dog waste：now it’s a general rule that dog owners clean it up after their pets. And once we restore peace and quietness to trains, we can then move on and stop people bringing fast food onto them, too.
1.How did the author get to know the three passengers?
A．From their phone conversations.
B．Through introductions.
C．In informal conversations.
D．By using a mobile phone.
2.At the end of the journey, the author ______.
A．became satisfied with FGW’s service
B．felt uneasy about the silence
C．was filled with anger
D．went to the buffet car
3.What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 4?
A．He is in support of the decision of FGW.
B．He believes FGW will have more passengers.
C．He dislikes hearing others’ phone conversations.
D．He thinks it’s rude to listen to others’ conversations.
4.The author mentioned the rule of cleaning up dog mess to show ____.
A．dog mess has become a serious problem
B．quiet carriages can become the standard
C．noise in carriages is as troubling as dog mess
D．changing public custom and practice is difficult
A Shanghai shopping center recently opened a “husband nursery”. Men who are pulled around the shops by their wives or girlfriends can relax and rest there from shopping. Do most men hate shopping with women? Forum(论坛)readers share their opinions.
YinsXZ (US)
Hey, that is a nice idea. I like it. It also makes it easier for women who have lots of bags to be able to drop them off at the nursery for boyfriends to watch over while they return to shop for more! Set it up with wifi too and you have a perfect hang out spot. And most importantly, I don’t have to wait for complaints from the woman when I stop to look at computers to tools!
Sunnylin01(China)
Most women like shopping while most men don’t. Men generally don’t spend hours deciding color, comparison shopping or finding the sale prices. They know what they want, get in, buy them and get out. 10-15 minutes and they’re done. This is quite different from how a woman shops. Going from store to store, trying to find the best ones. The trying will spend hours.
Seneca(a foreigner in China)
Many women view shopping as an entertaining way to get down from high stress levels. My wife is one of those. Stress comes too naturally to her; driving a car, doing her job ,dealing with workmates all lead to some rising of her stress level. So shopping ideally happens every day. For me, that amount of shopping is stressful.
Blonde Amber(Ireland)
Some men take hours comparing products, trying things out, finding sales prices. They don’t always know what they want but enjoy just looking. Men can shop the same as women for things they are interested in and spend hours doing it. Equally not all women like shopping and go in, 10-15 minutes and they are done. People are not black and white, and don’t fit into boxes.
1.According to forum readers, which is not the benefit of opening a “husband nursery”?
A. Men can escape the complaints from women
B. Women can enjoy shopping more with bags left in men’s care
C. Women can finish their shopping in a shorter time
D. Men can relax themselves when women are shopping
2.Which saying below can best describe Sunnylin01 and Seneca’s opinion?
A. One man’s meat is another man’s poison
B. Joy and sorrow are next-door neighbors
C. A good wife make a good husband
D. Experience is the mother of wisdom
3.The underlined sentence in the last paragraph implies that_____.
A. black people and white people are different in size
B. people with different skins have different opinions
C. people shouldn’t draw general conclusion blindly
D. shopping is not suitable for any kind of people
