Daniel Summer is the best. I like the heat, the beach and the sunshine. I spend lots of time outdoors in summer. Winter is the worst, I think, as there is nothing good but cold.
Sandy Any season is okay but winter. I hate cold. I hate snow, and I really hate having to wear a coat. In winter everything is white and grey. I miss the green.
Amy In spring, temperatures are nice. I'm excited to fish because the winter is gone. I also like summer, because I can go swimming in my big pool. And the baseball season starts. All of us will have a good time playing this wonderful game.

Clara Daly was sitting on an Alaska Airlines flight from Boston to Los Angeles when she heard a worried voice over the loudspeaker "Does anyone on board know American Sign Language "
Clara, 15 at the time, pressed the call button. An air hostess came by and explained the situation. "We have a passenger on the plane who's blind and deaf," she said. The passenger seemed to want something, but he was traveling alone and the air hostesses couldn't understand what he needed.
Clara had been studying ASL for the past year to help blind and deaf people and she knew she'd be able to finger spell into the man's palm. So she rose from her seat, walked toward the front of the plane, and knelt by the seat of Tim Cook, then 64. Gently taking his hand, she signed, "How are you Are you OK " Cook asked for some water.
When it arrived, Clara returned to her seat. She came by again a bit later because he wanted to know the time. On her third visit, she stopped and stayed for a while.
"He didn't need anything. He was lonely and wanted to talk," Clara said.
So for the next hour, she talked about her family and her plans for the future. Cook told Clara how he had become blind over time and shared stories of his days as a traveling salesman. Even though he couldn't see her, she "looked attentively at his face with such kindness," a passenger reported.
"Clara was amazing," an air hostess told Alaska Airlines in an interview. "You could tell Cook was very excited to have someone he could speak to and she was such an angel."
Cook's reply: "Best trip I've ever had."

四、阅读理解-阅读回答问题（共1小题；共10分）
Do you sometimes wish it could be spring all year round Spring is nice, but we really need the other seasons too. Then why do we have seasons
The tilt (倾斜) of the Earth causes (引起) changes of seasons. We all know that it takes the Earth one year to travel around the Sun, and the Earth is always "pointing" to one side as it moves. At different times during the year, the North Pole (北极) is close to the Sun or far away from the Sun. When it is pointing toward the Sun, the sunlight is hitting the northern hemisphere (北半球) straight. Then for people in the northern part of the Earth, it is summer. Fix months later, the North Pole points far away from the Sun and winter arrives. In between these times of the year, spring and autumn come.
But not all places have four seasons. For example, countries near the equator (赤道) have mild seasons. The temperature is almost the same all year round.
41. What causes different seasons on the Earth
_____
42. How long does it take the Earth to travel around the Sun
_____
43. Which season is it in the northern part of the Earth when the sunlight is hitting it straight
_____
44. Where are there almost no changes of season on the Earth
_____
45. Which subject tells us this kind of knowledge (知识), Biology, Geography or History
_____

How time flies! The year of Grade 7 is coming to an end. Thank you for your letter. Now let me tell you something about my school life. I have six classes every weekday. In the morning, we have four classes from 8:00 to 12:00. Classes begin at 2:00 in the afternoon. I usually play ping-pong with my classmates after class. My favorite subjects are English and Chinese. I think they are easy and interesting. I don't like math because it is too difficult for me. I'm going to study math hard in eighth grade. Maybe it's not as hard as I think. What about your school life Please write to me and tell me something about it.
Yours,
Wu Jing
