We are in all the same classes and we used to (过去常常) help each other study. These days, however, she is very competitive with me.

Next week, we will have an English test and now she doesn’t want to study with me.
She has become so competitive, and I don’t know what to do. I don’t want to lose our friendship, but at the same time I don’t want to compete with her any more. What should I do
Yours,
Sang-mi

I was a bit nervous about a holiday at Monkton Wyld. “We all sleep in one room — including the children, the food is vegetarian (素的) only and we do our own meals ” I asked my wife (妻子).
“That’s right,” she said.
“But we need a holiday,” I said.
Two months later we’re on a train to Monkton Wyld. I’m reading about it on my phone. The house was built in 1848 and since then, it has been a hotel, a school and now it’s an education (教育) centre.
We’re going on a “Family Week” with our two children. We arrive at night and enjoy a nice dinner I like. All the vegetables are from the garden of the house. Soon I’m feeling a lot happier.
The house is run by 12 people who live here. There are also some people who come and stay at the house for a week just to work in the garden or help with the cooking. Some of the families have been coming to Monkton Wyld for several years — it has become a ritual for them. They’re patient with all my questions about the place. Later, we’re playing games in the large living room. It already feels like these people are old friends.
Over the next week, we really have a week of “family fun”. We draw. We sing. We make things. And best of all, the children are outside almost the whole time — away from phones, TV and so on.
( )6. From the underlined sentence, we know that the writer didn’t think a week at Monkton Wyld would be ________.
A. busy B. difficult C. enjoyable D. different

( )8. The writer is looking forward to the “Family Week” right after ____ at Monkton Wyld.
A. he visits the garden B. he has his first dinner
C. he helps with the cooking D. he communicates with others
( )9. What does the underlined word “ritual” mean in Chinese
A. 负担 B. 梦想 C. 习惯 D. 象征
( )10. The writer and some people ________ in the living room.
draw B. sing C. make things D. play games

I don’t like to look back on my college years. Between class work and a part-time job, I had no time for exercise. Also, I ate a lot of fast food. Of course, I was getting bigger. Many people called me fat and it really hurt my feelings.
After leaving college, I decided to start exercising. I ran with my friend every Wednesday and Saturday evening. We ran for half an hour at a park near our homes. One month later, my friend became bored. One day, he said, “We’re not getting enough exercise. We should play tennis instead (代替).”
Me Play tennis No way. I was strongly against his idea. I was not good at sports. Also, I was happy with running. However, weeks later, I found myself standing on a tennis court (球场). I felt silly. I ran after every ball he served (发球) to me, completely missing about 90% of them. The first few months were quite terrible. But one day, as the ball came flying towards me, I hit it with my racket (球拍) properly (恰当地). I had finally learned how to play tennis!
Tennis finally became my hobby. I have been playing it for several years. I learned a lesson during my journey towards learning to play tennis: I can do anything that I set my mind to. I just need to work hard, and success will come to me itself.

Dear Cousin,
As you know, I will graduate (毕业) in a few months and I can’t decide what I should do after graduation. I had planned a two-month trip to Argentina. I’m sure it will be fantastic. But I just found out that I have been accepted for the internship (实习期) at American Airlines. If I work hard, perhaps they will offer me a job at the end of the summer. This happened to another student last summer. Both are great, but I really need your help in making the right decision.
If I travel to Argentina, I can relax and have fun with my friends. I have never taken a holiday with them and this might be the last time we can all travel together. Once I start working, it will be difficult to find so much time for a holiday. As for the internship, if I take it, I probably won’t get any time to relax. I will have to start the day after graduation and I’ll be busy working all the time. It will be very stressful (有压力的).
Despite (尽管) the stress, it will be a good start for me to work for American Airlines. Although I won’t get paid, I will get experience. However, travelling to Argentina will let me practise my Spanish and I know that many companies want people with good Spanish skills. I also promised my friends that I would go with them. I really don’t want to let them down (让……失望).
What should I do I’m looking forward to your advice.
Yours,
Susan
