Dear students,
I'm glad to stand here to share my opinion of the purpose of learning English.
There're many types of opinions on this topic. Some people hold the view that English is just a matter of memorising words and learning grammar to pass exams. However, I'm convinced that English is a unique skill which is more related to the improvement of ourselves. In addition, I also regard English as a resource of understanding the culture of English-speaking countries and a way to boost our creativity.
That's all, thanks for your listening.

Imagine stepping out your front door and standing in the middle of a national park.Daniel hopes this might soon be possible for millions of London residents.Daniel is leading a campaign to make London a national park city.
Although London has much more concrete than a national park usually would, it is home to more than 13，000 kinds of wildlife.These species live in its 3，000 parks, along with 15，000 varieties of flowering plants, and more than 300 species of birds.In fact, 47 percent of the land in London is green space.
“We have 8 million trees in London; it's the world's largest urban forest，” Daniel says.That's almost one tree for every person living in London！Yet, even though London has thousands of outdoor spaces, one in seven children living there hasn't visited a green space in the past year.
Daniel believes that making London into a national park will protect the animal life and green spaces in London.He hopes it will also encourage people, especially young people, to spend more time outdoors.Daniel takes his own son out to explore in London, and he thinks that other parents should do the same.Daniel believes that people who spend a lot of time in nature live happier and healthier lives.What do you think

On the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Chinese scientist Tu Youyou, winner of the 2015 Nobel Prize for the discovery of artemisinin, has been awarded China's Medal of the Republic.The medal is the country's highest honour for outstanding figures that have made great contributions to the construction and the development of the P．R.C.
Tu Youyou, born in 1930, has become the first Chinese woman to win a Nobel Prize, for her work in helping to create an anti malaria medicine.The 84 year old's route to the honour has been anything but traditional.In China, she is being called the “three nos” winner：no medical degree, no doctorate, and she's never worked overseas.In 1967, malaria, a then deadly disease, spread by mosquitoes was decimating Chinese soldiers fighting Americans in the jungles of northern Vietnam.A secret research unit “Mission 523” was formed to find a cure for the illness.Two years later, Tu Youyou was instructed to become the new head of “Mission 523”．
“Mission 523” read ancient books carefully for a long time to find historical methods of fighting malaria.When she started her search for an anti malaria drug, more than 240，000 compounds(化合物)around the world had already been tested, without any success.Finally, the team found a brief reference to one substance, sweet wormwood, which had been used to treat malaria in China around 400 A．D.The team took out one active compound in wormwood, and then tested it.But nothing was effective until Tu Youyou returned to the original ancient text.After another careful reading, she changed the drug recipe one final time, heating the compound without allowing it to reach boiling point.
After the drug showed promising results in mice and monkeys, Tu Youyou volunteered to be the first human recipient of the new drug.“In any case, Tu Youyou is consistently praised for her drive and passion.”One former colleague, Lianda Li, says Ms.Tu is “unsociable and quite straightforward”， adding that “if she disagrees with something, she will say it.”
Another colleague, Fuming Liao, who has worked with Tu Youyou for more than 40 years, describes her as a “tough and stubborn woman”．Stubborn enough to spend decades piecing together ancient texts, she applies them to modern scientific practices.The result has saved millions of lives.
28．According to Paragraph 2, we can learn that ______．
A．Tu is the first woman to win a Nobel Prize B．Tu has a medical degree
C．Tu's road to success is not traditional D．Tu discovered a cure for malaria
29．The underlined word “decimating” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by ______．
A．encouraging B．Killing C．annoying D．benefiting
30．Which of the following statements is true
A．Tu first invented the idea of using sweet wormwood as a cure.
B．Tu was inspired by medical textbooks published in northern Vietnam.
C．The compound needs to be heated to the boiling point to be effective.
D．Over 240，000 compounds were proved ineffective before Tu's search.
31．Tu Youyou can be best described as a ______ person.
A．devoted and stubborn B．straightforward and mean
C．considerate and tough D．sociable and generous
D
When I was growing up, I had an old neighbor named Dr. Gibbs. He didn’t look like any doctor I’d ever known. He never yelled at us for playing in his yard. When Dr. Gibbs wasn’t saving lives, he was planting trees. His house sat on ten acres, and his life’s goal was to make it a forest.
The good doctor had some interesting theories about plant care and growth. He never watered his new trees as others did. Once I asked why. He said that watering plants spoiled them and that if you water them each successive tree generation would grow weaker and weaker. So you have to make things tough for them and weed out the weaker trees early on. He talked about how watering trees made for shallow roots, and how trees that weren’t watered had to grow deep roots in search of moisture. I thought he meant that deep roots were to be treasured.
So he never watered his new trees. He planted an oak and, instead of watering it every morning, he beat it with a rolled-up newspaper. Smack! Slap! Pow! I asked him why he did that, and he said it was to get the tree’s attention.
Dr. Gibbs passed away a couple of years after I left home. Every now and again, I walked by his house and looked at the trees that I’d watched him plant some twenty five years ago. They’re extremely tall, big and robust since they have deep roots now. However, the trees in my garden trembled in a cold wind although I had watered them for several years.
It seems that adversity and suffering benefit these trees while comfort and ease never could. I stood there, deep in thought.
Every night before I go to bed, I check on my two sons. I often pray for them. Mostly I pray that their lives will be easy. But I think that it’s time to change my prayers because now I know my children are going to encounter hardship.
32．According to Paragraph 2 and Paragraph 3, we can infer that Dr. Gibbs’ motto may be ______
A．“Seeing is believing” B．“Honesty is the best policy”
C．“Practice makes perfect” D．“No pain, no gain”
33．The underlined word “robust” in Para. 4 probably means _________
A．strange B．deep C．strong D．old
34．Which of the following statements is TRUE
A．The writer is twenty-five years old. B．Dr. Gibbs beat his trees with a rope.
C．Dr. Gibbs thought that watering trees might spoil them.
D．The writer will not pray for her children any more.
35．Which of the following can be the best title of the passage
A．A Doctor B．The Deep Roots C．My Prayer D．My Childhood Memory

“Surprise！” was the first thing I heard when I opened the door.My family and friends were all smiling at me.There were colorful balloons all over the house, a big poster saying “HAPPY BIRTHDAY”， and of course a cake with 12 candles.It was a wonderful feeling.I knew that I had finally turned twelve and I might possibly get the thing I wanted most.
I saw my mom and dad coming towards me with a small box which seemed to be a birthday present.When I opened the box, I couldn't believe my eyes.I had really gotten a mobile phone! Throwing myself into their arms, I let out a cry of joy, “Thank you! I love you guys！”
“You're welcome.We knew this was going to make you happy but we didn't only get you this because you turned twelve, but also because you are doing well in school.We expect you to keep getting good grades.”
“Of course I will.” I said confidently.
As soon as I got to school the next morning, I was showing off my phone and asking everyone for their number.It was cool how I got so many contacts on the first day.
It felt like I didn't even exist in that class anymore.I wouldn't pay much attention to the teachers because I was too busy on my phone.However, I didn't get caught using it.
I am pretty sure that the teacher did notice that I stopped paying attention to her because a week later we took a test and I failed.What was worse, my mom had to sign the test.
It was hard to show my mom the test.She was used to seeing A's and B's on my tests.Finally, I showed it to her, and she couldn't believe it.She was angry but most of all, she was disappointed.
Paragraph 1：
Realizing the reason for my failure, my parents started to dislike the fact that I had a phone.________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2：
Then I started to wonder if I was wrong.
