Last month our class organized a hiking along the Chaobai River, which run through Hebei, Beijing and Tianjin. Much to my disappoint, I found the river was serious polluted. At that moment, I was determined to do what I could protect it. First, under my teacher’s help, I used the equipment from the school lab to test the qualities of the river water. But then, I used the information I had collected it to analyze the pollution of the water. Finally, I write a report on the pollution of the river to the local government. I also gave a speech in class which I suggested that we make small changes to protect our water resources.

When we are grown-ups, it’s quite natural to look back on our different stages of life and remember who was there to see us through. 1. While some people’s high school friendships gradually end, mine have struck with me through every bit of life since. And I suppose high school friends are the friends you’ll build the strongest relationships with.
2. Whether it is the bad haircut or the braces(牙箍) you wear, your high school friends help you through it all. They tell you that you look wonderful when you cannot go out in public with that hairdo. 3.
They understand the most about you. High school friends know you better than anyone else. They can just look at you and know how you’re feeling. You cannot hide much from them. 4. And they’d rather help deal with the problem at hand than let it go. So even when you don’t want to hear it, prepare yourself ----because they’re not going to stop trying until you’re back to your normal yourself.
They make for the best reunion. Reunions are harder to organize when friends live across the country. However, with high school friends, it’s easy to enjoy the time together----you can often pick up just where you left off, no matter how long ago that was. Friendships can be hard to keep. 5.
A. We could depend on our friends all the time.
B. They are with you through your embarrassing stages.
C. They can sense something is off when you’re the slightest bit strange.
D. For me, I often think about my fantastic group of high school friends.
E. They build up your self-confidence to get you through each tough situation.
F. Let’s pray the flower of friendship would always bloom brightly in our hearts.
G. But it never seems like hard with the ones you’ve known and loved for long.
You may not like it, but learning English is absolutely necessary if you want to succeed abroad. Not just that, you have to show your knowledge of the English language on one of the two major English proficiency(精通) tests: the IELTS or the TOEFL.
Which test you should take depends on your goal. The TOEFL remains the top exam in the U.S. But the IELTS is gaining ground in the U.S. and it has already been the preferred test in the U.K. and Australia. There are also differences in the test themselves. They both measure the four main language requirements: speaking, reading, writing and listening. However, the tests are very different in their forms and methodology. “Compared with the TOEFL, the IELTS test requires you to actually have a grasp of the language and ability to use it, rather than simply being well prepared for the test,” explained IELTS examiner Julian Fisher.
The key reasons for this are that the IELTS test requires fill-in answers besides multiple choice(选择题), and its speaking section is done with a real examiner instead of a computer. “The face-to-face interview with a trained speaker of English allows for real-life communication, which shows real academic(学业的) and workplace situations, ” said senior exam marketing officer Pang Shuai.
What scores do I need? For the IELTS, a band score of 5 to 7 is fine for the majority of undergraduate and post-graduate programs. For top schools, you will probably need at least a 7. When it comes to the TOEFL , there is a range. It all depends on the colleges. Ordinary schools will let you get by with a score as low as 60. For a top-tier university, on the other hand, you will need to score upward of 100 points on your TOEFL.
1.What does Paragraph 2 suggest?
A.The TOEFL score is preferred in Australian universities.
B.Universities in the U.K. mainly see students’ IELTS scores.
C.The IELTS is more widely accepted than the TOEFL by US. School.
D.In the U.S., the TOEFL score is not as important as it once was.
2.Which of the following is a difference between the TOEFL and the IELTS?
A.There are no fill-in answers in the TOEFL tests.
B.The IELTS tests focus more on test-taking skills.
C.The IELTS interviews test-takers on the computer.
D.The TOEFL checks four English skills, while the IELTS doesn’t.
3.What does Pang Shuai think of the face-to-face interview?
A.More exams should take this exam form.
B.It is helpful in one’s studies and at work.
C.This exam form can make test-takers more relaxed.
D.A test-taker can score high simply by preparing well.
4.Which of the following is correct if you want to go to a top university in the U.K. or U.S.?
A.A 7 on the IELTS is probably a must.
B.A score of 60 on the TOEFL is enough.
C.You should take both the TOEFL and the IELTS.
D.You need a 7.5 on the IELTS for post-graduate programs.
The United States Capitol Dome in Washington, D.C., is recognized around the world as a symbol of the U.S. government. Since last November, the dome has been surrounded by metal poles, or scaffolding(脚手架), and heavy cloth as part of a repair project.
The last major repair work on the U.S. Capitol took place in 1960. Since then, the dome has become weathered and worn. The Architect of the Capitol group reports the dome has more than 1,000 narrow breaks in its surface and other damage.
The dome was completed around 1863. U.S. Senate Historian Don Ritchie says the dome’s cast iron frame(铸铁钢架) is at special risk of weathering. “The capitol dome, being cast iron, has been hit by lightning countless times. And so the present construction(=building) is to repair the leaks, to fill in the cracks, to take off unnecessary layers of paint.”
Workers are removing old paint. They covered a large part of the building in plastic and a special cloth to protect workers from the wind and other elements. Much of the work is done at night, when lawmakers are not in the building.
Some recent visitors to the Capitol were unhappy about its present appearance. They had hoped to get a picture of the usually shining dome. Joyce said, “It was dramatic, and very fantastic, and all white, but when I come here today, it is under construction so my family cannot see it clearly. It is kind of a disappointment.”
Others were more understanding of the repairs. Rick Jones, another visitor, said, “It’s a little inconvenient for us not to see the dome but you have to think about the future and the people will be coming to this place for centuries...and you know, there just needs to be preventive maintenance(保养). I am not upset with that at all.”
The project is expected to take more than two years to complete. The dome should be ready for the inauguration of a new president in January 2017.
