The Doll and the White Rose

I was walking around in a mall, when I saw a cashier(出纳员) hand this little boy some money back．The cashier said, \enough money to buy this doll．”The little boy seemed very disappointed．

I walked toward him and asked him who he wished to give this doll to．\．She was sure that Santa Claus would bring it to her: But Santa Claus can't bring it to her where she is now．I have to give the doll to my mommy so that she can give it to my sister when she goes there．\．\．Daddy says that Mommy is going to see God very soon too, so I thought that she could take the doll with her to give it to my sister．”

My heart nearly stopped．The little boy looked up at me and continued, \．I need her to wait until I come back from the mall．\

I quickly reached for my wallet and said,\ just in case you do have enough money for the doll．\

\ I hope I do have enough,\．I put some of my money with his without him seeing and we started to count it．There was enough for the doll and even some spare money．

Surprisingly, the little boy cried, \to sleep for God to make sure I had enough money to buy this doll, so that Mommy could give it to my sister．He heard me! I also wanted to have enough money to buy a white rose for my mommy, but I didn't dare to ask God for too much．But he gave me enough to buy the doll and a white rose ! \

Then I remembered two days before a local newspaper reported an accident in which a woman and a little girl were badly injured．The little girl died right away, and the mother was left in a critical state．Was this the family of the little boy?

Two days after I met the little boy, I read in the newspaper that the woman had passed away．I couldn't stop myself from going to the funeral．Teary-eyed, I felt that my life had been changed forever． 56．The boy wanted to buy the doll because ． A．he had always been eager for such a doll B．Santa Claus didn't give him any Christmas gift C．he would give it to his mother as a birthday surprise D．he wanted to turn his sister's Christmas wish into reality 57．We can learn from the story that ． A．the boy's sister died after staying in hospital for two weeks B．the boy's family were all seriously injured in a car accident C．the author gave the boy some extra money without his notice D．the boy's mother always wished to receive a white rose on Christmas 58．The story most probably conveys the message that ． A．a kind act can bring joy and hope to others B．a gift is a perfect way to express love for others

At times my mom has been uncomfortable seeing these qualities in me. For example，when I was 12，I went to Puerto Rico all by myself to stay with

my grandmother for the summer. My mom was extremely nervous about it. She kept telling me how things were different in Puerto Rico，to always put on sunscreen，not to wander away from my grandmother，and other warnings. She helped me pack and did not leave the airport until she saw my plane take off.

But despite her worries，she let me go on my own. As I moved into my teens，she continued to give me space to grow and learn，even when it might have been difficult for her. When I reached my senior year，I decided to move away for college. Once again I found that I differed from my peers：While many of them wanted to stay close to home，I couldn’t wait to be out in the world on my own. While my mom may not have been happy at the thought of my going away，she was supportive and excited for me.

One big thing I realized during my senior year，as my mom granted me more freedom，was that she actually believes in me and trusts me. That means a lot. Most of my life，and especially when I was little，the main person I tried to impress in my schoolwork or other things was my mother. I knew she expected nothing but the best from me. Sometimes it was hard to live up to her standards；getting a single B on my report card would make me feel bad because I knew she wanted me to have all A’s.

I know that her high standards have helped me stay focused on what’s important，like education，and made me who I am. I am thankful for her support and involvement in my life .Most of all I respect her. She is the strongest woman I know and that’s why I have turned out so strong and independent.

59．When the author decided to go to Puerto Rico，his mother________.

A．wanted to go with him B．worried about his safety C．didn’t allow him to do so D．asked his grandmother for advice 60．The author decided to move away for college to________.

A．be different from his peers B．keep away from his mother C．be independent in the outside world D．make his mother unhappy 61．We can learn from the third paragraph that the author’s mother________.

A．had a high expectation of him B．was too strict with him C．used to expect nothing from him D．cared little about his learning 62．In the passage，the author mainly wants to tell us________.

A．his long way to becoming independent B．his good relationship with his mother C．the importance of a mother’s trust and support D．his mother’s deep love for him C

Do you love Beats headphones, True Religion jeans, and UGG shoes? These are some of the most popular brands (牌子) around. They are also expensive. But some experts say they are not much better than cheaper brands.

For example, Jim Wilcox works for Consumer Reports. He tested all kinds of headphones. He says that $80 Koss Pro headphones provide basically the same quality and comfort as Beats. So why do people pay twice or even 10 times as much for the hottest brands?

Experts say it's because fashionable, expensive brands send a message. Brands say “I belong” or “I can afford it.”

Some people think that expensive brand names are worth the price. They say that some designer clothes really are top quality and that they last longer than cheaper brands. Some teenagers choose to wear popular brands because these brands make them feel good about themselves.

Alexandra Allam, 17, likes to buy brand-name products. “I'd rather spend the extra money to get something I know I'll be satisfied with,” she says. Her friend Emmy Swan agrees, saying “As long as you can afford it, it seems reasonable to buy what you want.” But not all teenagers agree. “Spending hundreds of dollars for designer sunglasses is stupid and unreasonable,” says Daniel Steinbrecher, 16. “It's fake (假的) happiness.”

People who are against wearing expensive brand names say that many designer brands aren't any better. “It's wasteful to buy things just because they are popular,” says Edmund Williams, 15. “You'll feel better if you buy things because you like them. If you have extra money to spend, it would be better to give it to people in need.”

63. The example of Jim's report wants to tell us _____.

A. popular brands make people comfortable B. Koss Pro headphones are better than Beats C. the hottest brands are of the highest quality

D. lesser-known brands may offer the same quality as name brands 64. According to experts, people choose the hottest brands probably _____.

A. to show off B. for their better quality

C. for their better designs D. to belong to a special group 65. What does Edmund think of expensive brands?

A. They are not worth the price. B. They make him feel confident. C. They need to improve their quality.

D. They pay too much attention to personal likes. 66. The text is mainly about _____.

A. how to buy things reasonably B. the competition between brands C. the different values of teenagers

D. whether expensive brands are worth high prices D

Sunday, 31 August

We’ve been in China for a month now. Dad, Mom, Harry and I moved to Tianjin on 25 August. We’re not very far from Beijing. Two days ago, we celebrated my 16th birthday. It was great celebrating in China; the only thing that was strange was the cake--here they’re not as sweet as the ones in New York. On Monday school starts—I wonder what it will be like.

Monday, 1 September

On my first day I was looking around for a locker to put my books in. However, here all the students keep all of their books at their desks--we stay in the same classroom because apparently we don’t have to go from class to class--teachers come to us!

Today we selected teacher assistants for each subject. Their duties are to collect homework, make announcements, and do other stuff for the teacher and the students. It’s kind of a big deal here! Since I am from the US, I was asked to be the English assistant. I felt so proud but quite nervous at the same time because I wasn’t sure what I had to do, but I accepted the job anyway.

Friday, 3 October

Boy, what a week! Now we have nine classes every day, including the morning class, a combination of our American schools’ “Homeroom” and “Study Hall”. I think Chinese students work too much! I have to do my homework when I get back home. I don’t even have time to watch TV or surf the Internet like before. I sometimes miss New York and my school because we didn’t have to study so much. We had more time to hang out with our classmates and neighbors; here, besides their usual classes, students are involved in weekend classes in subjects such as English, Chinese and math.

I get a lot of attention, being from another country. Everyone wants to practice English with me! A really cute girl even asked me for my phone number on my second day and sent me a text message! I’m making a lot more friends now. I just need a lot of help to improve my Chinese. Some students want to do a language exchange program with me. Nice! 67. The passage mentions all the following points EXCEPT . A. physics study B. teacher assistants C. free time activities D. language exchange program 68. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the teacher assistant’s duty? A. Collecting homework. B. Making announcements. C. helping teachers with small errands（差事） D. Teaching classmates. 69. Where is this passage most probably from?

A. A story book. B. A guide book. C. A diary. D. A magazine. 70. The passage is best described by ________.

A. culture shock. B. multi-culture. C. unique culture. D. culture background

How to Survive High School

High school can be a terrible phase if you get it all wrong. Find out how to survive high school with a few easy tips. 1. Be Yourself.

High school is a fun time to make new friends, meet new people, date and socialize. Make friends with all kinds of people and not just a group which you are comfortable with. Most peer pressure cases are because of the weak image created by freshmen. 71 Don’t give in to anyone’s wants. 2. 72 Choose your friends carefully and make sure you won’t get influenced by anyone. Socialize, but by judging who you can connect to. You will find friends, but stay away from the ones who don’t want to be your friends as a bad company is temping, but the good one is true. 3. Be Optimistic.

There is nothing better than having a smile on your face whenever you can. 73 Don’t be afraid to make friends, don’t get aggressive or personal with anyone and treat others the way you want to be treated. Respect your teachers and classmates and try to be helpful if you want the same in return. 4. Be Confident.

When you believe in yourself, others believe in you. Talk, walk and address people confidently and this will create a strong image about you. 74 Be creative and unique and learn to set trends. Confidence is one quality you grow with, and people respect you for that. 5. Love High School.

75 Make the most out of it, and you will never get those moments back. Come up with prank ideas, get a detention, top your class, make the

best friends, drink, go to prom, party, but just make as many memories as you can!

With these tips to survive high school, you will surely be proud of graduating as an all round approaching adult carrying the best roots. So, when you throw those hats in the air, feel the freedom and remember every moment you spent in “High School”.

A. And always wear your smile. B. Keep Good Company. C. Just be yourself and create a strong self image. D. Practice positive thinking. E. Do your thing, and don’t imitate others. F. Fall in love with it. G. Study as hard as you can in your spare time.

Dear Chris,

I’m sorry to hear that you have been in hospital for several days. I am writing this letter on behalf of the whole class, who deeply miss you and care you. We are grateful for everything you’ve done for us.

Actually, it is very easy for a person like you to get sick, who hasn’t adapted to the new environment, suffers from great pressure and lacks exercise. Here are some tips for you:

First of all, it is a good idea to take part in some social activities, which will help you learn more about the local customs and cultures, so as to get used to the new environment. In addition, you should try to reduce the working pressure by listening to music and making more friends. Last but not least, you’d better exercise more instead of sitting in the office all the time.

Hope our advice would help you lead a healthy lifestyle and hope you would recover soon! Looking forward to seeing you soon.

Yours truly, Li Hua
