Most of the movies show our relationships and our society. What's more important is that people love to watch the highs and lows of the relationships in movies. Friendship has been the favorite subject of movie makers for a long time. Many movies are based on lovely relationships like friendship. Friendship can be between two persons or among more than two persons. Movies based on friendship make us remember that the relationship among friends is delicate. These movies also show how important it is to have a true friend in life and to own the friendship.
Friendship is described in different ways in movies. These movies show different faces of this lovely relationship including the pleasant and interesting faces. Let us discuss how friendship is described in movies.
Friends share common interests: In most of the movies, it is shown that two people become friends easily when they share some common interests.

You can see such friendship in movies such as Harry Potter and Lord of Rings. Harry Potter has two friends. All of them are interested in the use of magic.
Friends make sacrifices (牺牲): In most of the movies, friends make sacrifices for each other. A good example is Sholay. In this movie, there are two friends Jay and Veeru who are there for each other till death. Jay sacrifices his life to save his friend.
Friends never run away from difficulties: In movies, it is always shown that true friends always stand up for their friends in times of difficulties.
Understanding: In movies, friends understand each other without even saying a word. A single smile can brighten up the faces of all the friends.

ORTOTROT I heard that word while studying in Australia. It is a local language for“Are you ready (to go)?”. And at Sydney Airport, I asked the way to the train station and a man told me “Go ask that ‘bloke’ over there.”“Bloke” is used in Australia and refers to a person.“Day” and “die” sound almost alike and since “a”,“i” and “o” all sound almost the same, I have always told my Australian friends, jokingly, that they only need 24 letters, and not 26 like the rest of us do.
Australian English began to be different from British English in 1788 and has many words that some consider unique (独特的) to the language, such as outback, meaning a remote,sparsely populated (人口稀少的) area. Early settlers from England brought other similar words, phrases and usages to Australia.“Bonzer”,which was once a common Australian word meaning “great” or “beautiful”,is thought to have been an American term. The American influence on language in Australia has come from pop culture,the mass media (books, magazines and television programmes) and the Internet. Australian English is most similar to New Zealand English for their similar history.
Words of Irish origin are used, some of which are also common elsewhere in Irish, such as“tucker”for“food”. Some native English words whose meanings have changed under Irish influence, such as “paddock” for “field”,which has exactly the same meaning as the Australian “paddock” are still in use.
4.According to the passage, we know Australian English ________.
A.has special characters
B.is a kind of old language
C.is very difficult to learn
D.is the same as British English
5.Why did the writer tell his Australian friends they only need 24 letters
A.Because Australians never use “a” or “i”.
B.Because Australians speak very easy English.
C.Because there are 3 letters having similar pronunciation.
D.Because there are some different ways to call the same thing.
6.Australian English is most similar to New Zealand English because ________.
A.they learn from each other
B.they have similar history
C.the two countries have the same political system
D.people from the two countries often travel to each other's country
7.The American influence on Australian English comes from the following EXCEPT ________.
A.pop culture B.the Internet
C.computer software D.the mass media

How to Study Smarter, Not Harder
Here are some of our favorite study tips that will help any student study smarter, not harder:
Recite As You Study
Reciting — saying things out loud should first take place as you read through each paragraph or section. Test yourself. This will help you to understand as well as learn faster because it is more active than reading or listening. It will also help you to notice your mistakes and the topics you have trouble understanding.
Take Fuller Notes
Notes should be in your own words, brief and clear. They should be tidy and easy to read. Writing notes will help you better than just underlining as you read, since it forces you to rewrite ideas in your own words.
Study the Middle
The best time to review is soon after you've learned something. You are more likely to remember the material at the beginning and the end of the lesson, so make sure you focus on the middle when you review.
Sleep On It
Study before going to bed, unless you are very tired. It's easier to remember material you have just learned after sleeping than after an equal period of daytime activity, because your brain continues to think even after you've fallen asleep.
Combine Memory and Understanding
There are two ways to remember: by memorizing and by understanding. Multiplication tables, telephone numbers, and math formulas are better learned by rote. Ideas are best learned by understanding.
The more ways you have to think about an idea, the more meaning it will have; the more meaningful the learning, the better you can remember it. Pay attention to similarities in ideas and concepts, and then try to understand how they fit in with things you already know. Never be satisfied with anything less than a completely clear understanding of what you are reading. If you are not able to follow the thought, go back to the place where you first got confused and try again.
8.You can notice your mistakes by ________.
A.studying the middle B.taking notes
C.speaking things out aloud D.sleeping on it
9.When taking notes, you should ________to better help you with reading.
A.underline important notes
B.write as quickly as possible
C.take down every detail
D.write notes in your own words
10.The writer advises you to ________ as it is easier for you to remember material.
A.study before going to sleep
B.do some exercise after studying
C.study as soon as you get up
D.study after a period of activity
11.Which of the following is NOT helpful for your understanding
A.Thinking about an idea in different ways.
B.Reading from the beginning to the end without stop.
C.Relating ideas and concepts with what you already know.
D.Going back to what first made you confused and start again.

How to Study Smarter, Not Harder
Here are some of our favorite study tips that will help any student study smarter, not harder:
Recite As You Study
Reciting — saying things out loud should first take place as you read through each paragraph or section. Test yourself. This will help you to understand as well as learn faster because it is more active than reading or listening. It will also help you to notice your mistakes and the topics you have trouble understanding.
Take Fuller Notes
Notes should be in your own words, brief and clear. They should be tidy and easy to read. Writing notes will help you better than just underlining as you read, since it forces you to rewrite ideas in your own words.
Study the Middle
The best time to review is soon after you've learned something. You are more likely to remember the material at the beginning and the end of the lesson, so make sure you focus on the middle when you review.
Sleep On It
Study before going to bed, unless you are very tired. It's easier to remember material you have just learned after sleeping than after an equal period of daytime activity, because your brain continues to think even after you've fallen asleep.
Combine Memory and Understanding
There are two ways to remember: by memorizing and by understanding. Multiplication tables, telephone numbers, and math formulas are better learned by rote. Ideas are best learned by understanding.
The more ways you have to think about an idea, the more meaning it will have; the more meaningful the learning, the better you can remember it. Pay attention to similarities in ideas and concepts, and then try to understand how they fit in with things you already know. Never be satisfied with anything less than a completely clear understanding of what you are reading. If you are not able to follow the thought, go back to the place where you first got confused and try again.
8.You can notice your mistakes by ________.
A.studying the middle B.taking notes
C.speaking things out aloud D.sleeping on it

A.underline important notes
B.write as quickly as possible
C.take down every detail
D.write notes in your own words
解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句话“Writing notes will help you better than just underlining as you read, since it forces you to rewrite ideas in your own words.”可知记笔记的时候用自己的话有助于阅读能力的提高。故选D。

With the help by my teacher and classmates, I made some progresses. I'm very pleased, but I will work harder.

你的感想 ……
参考范文:
2012 is a disaster film directed by Roland Emmerich. The film stars are John Cusack, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Amanda Peet, Oliver Platt, Danny Glover, Thandie Newton and Woody Harrelson.
The film tells of how the main characters survive the human catastrophe caused by unusual sun activity. Jackson, good at writing novels, experiences a series of strange things with his children in Yellowstone Park. At last Jackson and his family go through the difficulty with love for each other and respect for life.
I think it is one of the most satisfactory films of the year and it really can be called the “mother of all disaster movies”. From it we learn that human beings should take measures to protect our earth. If not, such a catastrophe might come in the future.
