A letter to my grandson
Dear Joe,
I wrote you a letter and tell you about what the world used to be like when I was young.Life used to be very different then.We didn't have cell phones when we wanted to talk to our friends.We didn't have e mails either,so we had to write letters.
When we traveled from town to town,we used to walk or ride horses or take a cart(马车).Later we had buses but very few people had cars.Air travel was a luxury(奢侈品) and we used to dream of riding on an airplane but now everyone does.It's so common.
Food is another big difference.There weren't any supermarkets so we used to grow our own food.We would exchange some with people from other towns to buy the things we didn't have.We didn't have a refrigerator(冰箱) so we kept things cool in a special room downstairs.
But the biggest difference is electricity.We didn't have any in our town!At night,we used to light candles when we wanted light and we burned coal(煤)or wood to keep warm.We didn't have television.In summer,we used to go swimming in the river.
Life used to be very different,but we were happy.
Love,
Grandpa

C
I left my hometown in London last year and now I have enjoyed working in this small city in China.Learning a foreign language opens you up to the culture and history of a country.So in order to know more about China,I started to learn Chinese.
But at times,I found myself in funny situations.When I greeted strangers in China,they began to talk a lot and very fast.They asked me questions about everything.But all I could do was to look at them with a blank face.I had no idea what they were talking about.Were they just being kind,funny or impolite?Many people want to make friends with me.But I am a bit upset when I find out the reason why they need a foreign friend.They say they want to practice their English.I don't need friends like this.I like friends to share my feelings and ideas with.
However,the more Chinese I learn,the more similarities I find it has with English.In English,thick skinned is to describe a person who doesn't care for criticism (批评).I was surprised to find that houlianpi in Chinese means the same.And both languages share some common idioms (习语).For example,“look on with folded arms” means xiushoupangguan,and “burn the boats” is similar to pofuchenzhou.
I'm still on my journey to learn Chinese.I believe that sometimes you have the most fun on a journey.
11.The writer comes from ________.
A.the UK B.the USA C.Australia D.Canada
12.Many Chinese want to make friends with the writer because .
A.they are interested in Western culture
B.they want a partner to practice English with
C.they are willing to share feelings and ideas with him
D.they want to help the foreigner with his Chinese

A.相似点 B.不同点 C.规律性 D.重要性
14.A thick skinned person may ________.
A.be very strong and seldom fall ill
B.like to criticize others for their mistakes
C.talk a lot and speak fast
D.feel OK when he's criticized
15.If there would be a paragraph before the last paragraph of the text,it most probably would be about ________.
A.the reasons why he wants to learn Chinese
B.the similarities Chinese and English share
C.the differences between Chinese and English
D.the importance of learning Chinese and English

He Has Changed a Lot
My friend Henry has changed a lot in the last few years.
Henry used to be fat and eat lots of unhealthy food. Two years ago, his doctor told him that he should do more exercise and eat healthily. So he took exercise and ate healthily to lose weight.Now he is thinner and healthier.
Henry used to hate the school life. One year ago, he and his parents had a long talk.That's when he decided to change. Now he works harder than he used to. He knows his parents love him and they are proud of him.
Henry used to be shy. His face often turned red when he talked to people. Now he is more outgoing and can give a speech in public. That makes him more popular.
People sure change! I'm very glad to see my friend's great changes.
