"You must write about how they survived.Everybody wants to hear that,"I told my
fifth-grade daughter Sally.who was constructing her social studies report.Sally's decision was
to investigate The Doner Party,the show where settlers got stuck.I was excited.My wife is
expert in math.writing.science...everything but history.That is Daddy's domain.
-Dad."Sally said."You can help just a bit but don't boss me around."But I had to share
knowledge with her.I was sure that at this moment,most of parents in my daughter's class were
perfecting ther child's project into an AIf other parents were helping.didn'tI have to help to
keep my daughter in the race for the college
Ironical山y(具有讽刺意味的是)，I had my own project:an essay'on how much parents
should help with their kids'reports.I called psychology rescarcher Carol Dweck,told her"my
help"and expected her to tell me it's important for parents to help."Parents can be available as
a resource."Dweck said."to discuss the nature of the assignment,and be a sounding board for
ideas.But that's it.Helping too much sends a message that the children are not capable.or
makes them think less."So I shouldn't urge Sally to include those details It was hard to resist.
Put off by my daughter for the moment,I rctumed to my project This time.Joe Kelly,author of
stx parcnting books,reminded me that it's more important to support your children than to"help"them
After more research,I finally considered one piece ofadvice from a psychologist Children model their
bchavior after their parents'.This means it's valuable to show them how to structure and complete a
project.I looked at Sally who was still concentrating on her project."I was writing an article,"I sad.
To do the project,I researched and interviewed experts first.Then I began to write it,and just now,I
thought of conclusion.and.guess what Sally I just finished."

One possible version:
Dear Professor Brown,
I'm Li Hua,president of the Student Union of Xinxing High School.Representing our
school,I'm writing to convey my sincere appreciation to you for the lecture you gave us last
week.
Through your lecture,we've learned body language is one of the most effective methods of
expressing emotions.For example,smiling is the most universal expression of happiness.
Looking away from a person means showing no interest in the person.However,not all cultures
greet people in the same way.The knowledge will be very beneficial when we communicate with
people from other countries.
Best wishes.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节（满分25分）
The news hit both Emma and Lily hard.They both were seized with sorrow upon hearing it.
Lily even burst into tears immediately because she didn't want to be separated from Emma.The
following days,she was always with a heavy heart.Emma kept her company,gave her comfort
and assured her that she would always be her best friend.The two girls spent many nights
together,like conjoined twins.Finally,the departure day came.Emma and Lily hugged each
other tightly,promising to stay in touch and never forget each other.
As Emma's family drove away,Lily felt a deep sense of loss and sadness.But she also knew
that their friendship would continue,even if they were miles apart.Over the next few years,
Emma and Lily contacted each other by email,sharing updates on what happened in their life.
They talked about their hopes and dreams and offered each other words of encouragement and
support,as if they had never been apart.Gradually,they realized true friendship would never fade
because of distance and learned the true meaning of"A bosom friend afar brings a distant land
near”,
