六、任务型阅读（本大题共5小题，每小题1分，共10分）
阅读下面短文，根据短文内容完成句子。
A study finds that children of today are spending more and more time on the Internet.
We have to say that the Internet helps children a lot. On the Internet, they can read e-books and take classes. They can look for useful information and learn about the world. They can make friends from any country of the world and talk with them. Also, listening to music, watching movies and playing games online are easy and interesting things for children to do. All in all, going online helps children live an easy and interesting life.
But it’s easy to forget that going online can put children in danger. On the Internet, it’s very easy for someone to pretend (假装) to be someone else. When children talk with someone online, they often can’t see the person (人). That is to say they may meet a bad person. The bad person may ask children for their important information like their ID number. That is very dangerous. Also, children get dependent (依赖的) on the Internet. When they have a question, they always look for help online. It’s easy to find an answer to their question, but it makes them lazy (懒惰的) and slow in thinking. What’s more, sitting in front of the computer for hours is bad for children’s health. They may have eye problems.
Children need to know that the Internet is a great thing, but they must use it in the right way.
1. The Internet can help children read e-books, ______________, look for useful information and learn about the world.
2. The Internet can help children ______________ and relax by listening to music, watching movies and playing games.
3. Children may meet a(n) ______________ online and tell him / her their important information.
4. Looking for help online often can make children lazy and ______________.
5. Spending long hours on the Internet is bad for ______________.

八、 One possible version:
Dear Alice,
I’m very happy to receive your email. Let me tell you about the changes in Tianjin these years.
First, the streets were narrow and litter was everywhere years ago. But now, the streets are wider and cleaner. Second, in the past people drove to work and there was often heavy traffic. Now more and more people go to work by bike or on foot. Third, many people once watched TV a lot in their free time. These days people live a colourful life. At weekends or during holidays, lots of people choose to visit museums, enjoy crosstalk shows at theatres or play sports. I think these changes are great. I’m excited to see them happen.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Best,
Li Hua
