Letter A
Dear Rose,
I like your programs very much. I’m now writing to ask you something about American social customs. My American friends want me to join them in their dinner party. I am very happy and have decided to go, but I’m a little worried about it, too.
The social customs in my country are very different from here, so I’m afraid of making mistakes. Should I bring a present, such as sweets or flowers Should I arrived on time or a little late At the dinner table, how can I know which fork or knife to use How can I let the family know that I’m thankful for their kindness
Wang Lin
Letter B
Dear Wang Lin,
It’s a good idea to bring a small present when you go to a dinner party. Flowers are always nice, or you may bring a bottle of wine if you know that your friend drink it.
You should arrive on time or five to ten minutes late. Don’t get there early. If you are going to be more than fifteen minutes late, you should call and tell them.
Try to be free at the dinner table. If you don’t know about choosing the right fork or knife, just watch the other people, and follow them. If you still have no idea of what to do, ask the person next to you.
If you like the food, say so. Of course, you’ll thank them for the meal and for their kindness. It’s also a good idea to send a thank-you card the day after.

Each year, millions of children around the world are unable to go to school. To draw attention to this widespread problem, the United Nations (UN) is putting education first. Recently, the UN screened a documentary film (纪录片) called Back to School. The film is the second in a series of documentaries for the 12- year project “Time for School”.
These films follow seven children from seven different countries. This 12 year project began in 2003, when the children first started school. “This is something we could do to help the education crisis in the world,” said producer and writer Judy Katz. “Documentary film makers can get deeply involved in a problem and do something about it.”
More than 100 million children will never set foot in schools, sixty percent of whom are girls. Cheryl Faye, head of the UN Girls Education Initiative, spoke about the many factors that prevent girls from getting an education. One problem is the long distance many children must travel to get to school. Also, girls in many cultures are traditionally expected to marry early and work to help their families. “We need to make a special effort for girls,” Faye said.
As part of the UN’s goals, the organization wants every single child to get at least an elementary education by 2015.
Students from Lawrence Middle School in New York were deeply moved after they saw the film. The seventh-grade class is raising money to help build a library on the outskirts (郊区) of Nairobi, Kenya, where Joab—a child in the documentary lives. The class teacher, Karen Weiner, and the class are known in their school as the “Kenya crew”. All the kids were really happy to support Joab and said they felt great about their fund-raising efforts. Like the seventh-graders at Lawrence Middle School, kids can work together to make a difference in places like Nairobi. By raising money for education, kids can help children on the other side of the world have a chance at a better, happier life.
46. What is the purpose of the UN screening a documentary film Back to School
A. To raise funds for global education.
B. To show the achievements which have been made in the past few years.
C. To raise public awareness of the need for global education.
D. To encourage all the children to come back to school.
47. Why should special efforts be made for girls
A. Because more than one half of the children who never go to school are girls.
B. Because more than 100 million girls will never go to school.
C. Because most of the girls are tired of going to school.
D Because sixty percent of the children in the world are girls.
48. Which of the following could NOT be the factor that prevents girls from getting an education
A. Long distance from school. B. Helping work for the family.
C. Early marriage. D. Being born weak.
49. Why are the class teacher, Karen Weiner, and the class considered as “Kenya crew”
A. Because they all have the same experience as Joab--the Kenya child.
B. Because they are the actors in the documentary film Back to School.
C. Because they are mostly from Kenya, where the child in the documentary lives.
D. Because they are trying their great efforts to raise money for the education of Kenya children.
50. What is the last paragraph mainly about
A. American middle school students’ desire to go to Kenya.
B. The content of the documentary film Back to School.
C. An example of being inspired to take action after seeing the film.
D How students from Lawrence Middle School raise money for their education.

In a recent business magazine article, a president said, laughter in the workplace is a waste of time. This is a place to do business, not to laugh. Some researchers, however, disagree with his words. As scientists have learned more about the brain, they’ve discovered that smiles and laughter stimulate(刺激)the brain, which can help increase happiness and reduce pain.
Why do we need laughter in our lives Laughter is a powerful tool for our health. In a number of studies, that were carried out, it was shown that people who are more humorous have stronger immune systems (免疫系统) while people who feel stressed have weaker immune systems. Humor can help make your immune systems stronger.
Here are some tips to add more humor to your life:
Laugh at yourself. Don’t take yourself too seriously. Have a positive attitude towards yourself and your worries will become lighter too.
Don’t worry when people laugh — just appreciate it. Be funny. Look for the humorous side of and otherwise difficult situation.
Prepare a first-aid laughter source. This could include books, cartoons, CDs or videos. Write down the amusing things that happen and save them for a sad day.
Be open to silly things. Humor is the child within yourself. Laugh with others for what they do, rather than what they are.
Research has shown that laughter is indeed the best medicine, so make time for humor now.

You should arrive on time or five to ten minutes late. Don’t get there early. If you are going to be more than fifteen minutes late, you should call and tell them.
Try to be free at the dinner table. If you don’t know about choosing the right fork or knife, just watch the other people, and follow them. If you still have no idea of what to do, ask the person next to you.
If you like the food, say so. Of course, you’ll thank them for the meal and for their kindness. It’s also a good idea to send a thank-you card the day after.

Each year, millions of children around the world are unable to go to school. To draw attention to this widespread problem, the United Nations (UN) is putting education first. Recently, the UN screened a documentary film (纪录片) called Back to School. The film is the second in a series of documentaries for the 12- year project “Time for School”.
These films follow seven children from seven different countries. This 12 year project began in 2003, when the children first started school. “This is something we could do to help the education crisis in the world,” said producer and writer Judy Katz. “Documentary film makers can get deeply involved in a problem and do something about it.”
More than 100 million children will never set foot in schools, sixty percent of whom are girls. Cheryl Faye, head of the UN Girls Education Initiative, spoke about the many factors that prevent girls from getting an education. One problem is the long distance many children must travel to get to school. Also, girls in many cultures are traditionally expected to marry early and work to help their families. “We need to make a special effort for girls,” Faye said.
As part of the UN’s goals, the organization wants every single child to get at least an elementary education by 2015.
Students from Lawrence Middle School in New York were deeply moved after they saw the film. The seventh-grade class is raising money to help build a library on the outskirts (郊区) of Nairobi, Kenya, where Joab—a child in the documentary lives. The class teacher, Karen Weiner, and the class are known in their school as the “Kenya crew”. All the kids were really happy to support Joab and said they felt great about their fund-raising efforts. Like the seventh-graders at Lawrence Middle School, kids can work together to make a difference in places like Nairobi. By raising money for education, kids can help children on the other side of the world have a chance at a better, happier life.
46. What is the purpose of the UN screening a documentary film Back to School
A. To raise funds for global education.
B. To show the achievements which have been made in the past few years.
C. To raise public awareness of the need for global education.
D. To encourage all the children to come back to school.
47. Why should special efforts be made for girls
A. Because more than one half of the children who never go to school are girls.
B. Because more than 100 million girls will never go to school.
C. Because most of the girls are tired of going to school.
D. Because sixty percent of the children in the world are girls.
48. Which of the following could NOT be the factor that prevents girls from getting an education
A. Long distance from school. B. Helping work for the family.
C. Early marriage. D. Being born weak.
49. Why are the class teacher, Karen Weiner, and the class considered as “Kenya crew”
A. Because they all have the same experience as Joab--the Kenya child.
B. Because they are the actors in the documentary film Back to School.
C. Because they are mostly from Kenya where the child in the documentary lives.
D. Because they are trying their great efforts to raise money for the education of Kenya children.
50. What is the last paragraph mainly about
A. American middle school students’ desire to go to Kenya.
B. The content of the documentary film Back to School.
C. An example of being inspired to take action after seeing the film.
D. How students from Lawrence Middle School raise money for their education.

【答案】Dear Peter,
I knew from your email that you are very nervous about the coming speech contest, so I am writing to give you some advice.
Firstly, don’t be nervous and keep calm. It’s important to make careful preparations in advance. You should practice as often as possible until you can recite your speech fluently. In this way, you will be confident about yourself. Secondly, when you deliver the speech, you’d better wear a smile on your face, which can help feel relaxed. Thirdly, you should speak clearly and humorously so that you can leave a deep impression on the judges.
That’s all my advice and I hope it will be of help to you. Good luck to you!
Yours,
Li Jin
