In this century the traditional American family is constantly faced with the threat of breakdown. Some sociologists suggest that one little – noticed cause may be the introduction of the TV dinner.
Before the appearance of television seats, the American dinner was a big event for the family. In many homes dinner time may be the only time when everyone got together. A typical dinner was usually in three stages. In the preparation stage, the children and Father frequently helped with setting while Mother put the last touches on the roast. In the eating stage, family members shared the day’s experiences and more than food was consumed. In this stage families got to know one another and made joint decisions around the dinner table, and thus the family solidarity was strengthened. In the cleaning – up stage, children or Father again gave their hands, so that their significance to the home community was clear. Unfortunately, all of these have been erased by a product—the television set.
By the beginning of the 1980s, the typical American family dinner was just twenty minutes long. The speed – up of this once – leisurely experiences is clearly connected to the overall pace of modern life and maybe a model of the modern life is the TV dinners—meals designed to be consumed between the opening and closing credits of a half – hour program. The once family affair has now become nothing more than the use of a fork and knife.
56. According to the passage, the American family is now threatened by .
A. poverty B. having few children
C. poor living conditions D. separation
57. In the past, Americans tended to .
A. spend more time eating their food at dinner table
B. eat more food than they have today
C. spend more time talking about their day’s experience at dinner table
D. talk so much that they forgot to eat
58. The shortening of the dinner time in America is related to .
A. the TV programs B. the pace of modern life
C. the wide use of household appliances D. the popularity of fast food
59. According to the passage, TV dinners are______.
A. meals consumed while one is watching TV
B. meals one learns to cook on TV
C. meals ordered on TV
D. meals consumed before TV
60. The best title for this passage might be .
A. Talk At Dinner Table B. TV Dinner
C. Pace Of Modern Life D. Problems Caused By TV
B
There are two basic ways to see growth: one as a product, the other as a process. People have generally viewed personal growth as an external（外部的） result or product that can easily be identified and measured. The worker who gets a promotion, the student whose grades improve, the foreigner who learns a new language – all these are examples of people who have measurable results to show for their efforts.
By contrast, the process of personal growth is much more difficult to determine, since by definition it is a journey and not the specific signposts or landmarks (路标) along the way. The process is not the road itself, but rather the attitudes and feelings people have, their caution or courage, as they go through new experiences and unexpected obstacles. In this process, the journey never really ends; there are always new ways to experience the world, new ideas to try new challenges to accept.
In order to grow, to travel new roads, people need to have a willingness to take risks, to be faced with the unknown, and to accept the possibility that they may “fail” at first. How we see ourselves as we try a new way of being is essential to our ability to grow. Do we find ourselves as quick and curious? If so, then we tend to take more chances and to be more open to unfamiliar experiences. Do we think we’re shy and indecisive? Then our sense of timidity can cause us to hesitate, to move slowly, and not to take a step until we know the ground is safe. So we think we’re slow to adapt to change or that we’re not smart enough to cope with a new challenge? Then we are likely to take a more passive role or not try at all.
These feelings of insecurity and self – doubt are both unavoidable and necessary if we are to change and grow. If we do not face and overcome these internal fears and doubts, if we protect ourselves too much, then we cease to grow. We become trapped inside a shell of our own making.
61. A person is generally believed to achieve personal growth when .
A. he has given up his smoking habit
B. he has made great efforts in his work
C. he is interested in making anything new
D. he has tried to determine where he is on his journey
62. In the author’s eyes, one who views personal growth as a process would .
A. succeed in climbing up the social ladder
B. judge his ability to grow from his own achievements
C. face difficulties and take up challenges
D. aim high and reach his goal each time
63. When the author says “a new way of being” (para. 3), he is referring to .
A. a new approach to experiencing the world
B. a new way of taking risks
C. a new method of finding ourselves
D. a new system of adapting to change
64. For personal growth, the author supports all of the following except .
A. curiosity and more chances B. being quick in self – adaptation
C. open – minded to new experiences D. avoidance of internal fears and doubts
C
A sense of humor is just one of the many things shared by Alfred and Anthony Melillo, 64-year-old twin brothers from East Haven who made history in February 2006. On Christmas Eve, 1996, Anthony had a heart transplant from a 21-year-old donor. Two days before Valentine’s Day in 2006, Alfred received a 19-year-old heart, marking the first time on record that twin adults each received heart transplants
“I’m 15 minutes older than him, but now I’m younger because of my heart and I’m not going to respect him,” Alfred said with a grin, pointing to his brother while talking to a roomful of reporters, who laughed frequently at their jokes.
While the twins knew that genetics might have played a role in their condition, they recognized that their eating habits might have also contributed to their heart problems. “We’d put half a pound of butter on a steak. I overdid it on all the food that tasted good, so I guess I deserved what I got for not dieting properly.”
The discussion moved to Anthony’s recovery. In the five years since his heart transplant, he had been on an exercise program where he regularly rode a bicycle for five miles, swam each day, and walked a couple of miles. He was still on medication, but not nearly as much as Alfred, who was just in the early stage of his recovery.
“Right now I feel pretty young and I’m doing very well,” Anthony said. “I feel like a new person.”
Alfred said his goal, of course, was to feel even better than his brother. But, he added, “I love my brother very much. We’re very close and I’m sure we’ll do just fine.”
65. This main idea of the passage is _________.
A. becoming young by getting a new heart
B. the effect of genetics on the heart
C. the twin brothers who received heart transplants
D. the danger of heart transplant surgery
66. What did Alfred and Anthony have in common?
A. Lifespan. ??? B. Career goals.
C. A sense of humor.??? D. Love for bicycling.
67.It is inferred from the passage that__________.
A. both of the new hearts weren’t paid at all
B. Anthony recovered better than Alfred
C. Alfred was still in hospital
D. people who have healthy diets won’t suffer heart attacks
68. Alfred said, “I’m 15 minutes older than him, but now I’m younger because of my heart” because__________.
A. he got a younger heart
B. his recovery from the heart surgery was faster than Anthony’s
C. his exercise program was better than Anthony’s
D. his heart transplant surgery was more successful than Anthony’s
D
American Thomas Schelling and Israeli-American Robert Aumann will share the 2005 Nobel Prize in economics. Both men have greatly influenced the way conflict and business negotiations are carried out.
The two men are being honored for their work in developing an economic idea. It is called game theory.
Game theory began as the study of decision-making in competitive situations, like games. John von Neumann and Oskar Morgenstern linked the theory of games with economic activities more than sixty years ago.
In the nineteen fifties, John Nash developed an idea known as the Nash equilibrium (平衡). The Nash equilibrium is the point where all sides in a competitive situation believe they have been given the best offer they will ever get. He proved this with mathematical methods.
Mr. Nash won the Nobel Prize in economics with two other men in 1994.
Mr. Schelling used the ideas of game theory to study real-life problems, such as the arms competition between the United States and the Soviet Union forty years ago. He was interested in what influenced negotiating groups. He showed how one side might decide to harm its interests for a short period of time to make gains over a longer period. Mr. Schelling also used game theory to show how people become divided by race. He found that divided societies can result even among persons mostly willing to live near people of another race.
Mr. Aumann developed game theory mathematically so that it can be useful for different areas of study. He showed that peaceful cooperation can provide good results for all competitors in a game over a long period. This is true even among competitors with a temporary conflict of interest. Mr. Aumann also considered how reasonable decisions are made among groups. He showed that knowing what competitors know is important to decision-making.
The work of both men has influenced areas of study other than economics. International negotiators, military planners, business leaders and biologists use methods developed by Mr. Schelling and Mr. Aumann.
Mr. Schelling, an American, is a retired professor of the University of Maryland. Mr. Aumann is a citizen of both the United States and Israel. He is a retired professor of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
69. Mr. Schelling and Mr. Aumann share the 2005 Nobel Prize in economics for .
A. developing “game theory” B. developing the Nash equilibrium
C. proving “game theory” D. beginning the study of “game theory”
70. The underlined phrase “make gains” in the sixth paragraph probably refers to .
A. suffer loss B. improve health C. make money D. make a profit
71. According to Mr. Aumann, when we want to reach a reasonable decision among groups, we .
A. don’t have to be informed what our competitors think
B. must have a good understanding of what our competitors know
C. need only think about how we can make the most of our own interests
D. needn’t peacefully cooperate with our competitors to make a profit
72. We can infer from the text that .
A. Mr. Aumann used “game theory” to study the arms competition between the US and the Soviet Union.
B. Mr. Schelling and Mr. Aumann only explained the game theory mathematically
C. most of the people are willing to live near their own competitors according to Mr. Schelling
D. the game theory developed by both men is very valuable to more than economics

Like many of my generation, I have a weakness for hero worship. At some point, however, we all begin to question our heroes and our need for them. This leads us to ask: What is a hero?
Despite immense differences in cultures, heroes around the world generally share a number of characteristics that instruct and inspire people.
A hero does something worth talking about. A hero has a story of adventure to tell and a community who will listen. But a hero goes beyond mere fame.
Heroes serve powers or principles larger than themselves. Like high voltage transformers, heroes take the energy of higher powers and step it down so that it can be used by ordinary people.
The hero lives a life worthy of imitation. Those who imitate a genuine hero experience life with new depth, enthusiasm, and meaning. A sure test for what would be heroes is what or whom do they serve? What are they willing to live and die for? If the answer or evidence suggests they serve only their own fame, they may be famous persons but not heroes. Madonna and Michael Jackson are famous, but who would claim that their fans find life richer?
Heroes are catalysts(催化剂) for change. They have a vision from the mountain top. They have the skill and the charm to move the masses. They create new possibilities. Without Gandhi, India might still be part of the British Empire. Without Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King, Jr., we might still have segregated (隔离的) buses, restaurants, and parks. It may be possible for large scale change to occur without leaders with magnetic personalities, but the pace of change would be slow, the vision uncertain, and the committee meetings endless.
73. Although heroes may come from different cultures, they _____________________.
A. generally process certain inspiring characteristics
B. probably share some weaknesses of ordinary people
C. are often influenced by previous generations
D. all unknowingly attract a large number of fans
74.Gandhi and Martin Luther King are typical examples of outstanding leaders who ___________ .
A. are good at demonstrating their charming characters
B. can move the masses with their forceful speeches
C. are capable of meeting all challenges and hardships
D. can provide an answer to the problems of their people
75.The author concludes that historical changes would ________ .
A. be delayed without leaders with inspiring personal qualities
B. not happen without heroes making the necessary sacrifices
C. take place if there were heroes to lead the people
D. produce leaders with attractive personalities

Each year there is an increasing number of cars as millions of new cars are produced in America. Americans will not live without cars! However, some have realized the serious problem of air pollution by cars. It is necessary to find ways to solve the problem of air pollution.
One way to clean the air is to build a new kind of clean car. That’s what several of the large car factories are trying to do. But to build a clean car is easier said than done. Progress in this field has been slow.
Another way is to take the place of the car engine by something else. Engineers are now working on it. Many makers believe that it will take years to develop a practical model that can please man.
To prevent the world being polluted by cars, Americans have to make some changes in the way of their life. They have to cut down on the number of their cars and are encouraged to travel and go to work by bike. But this change does not close down— many workers may find themselves without jobs if a car factory closes down. And the problem of their pollution would become less important than that of unemployment.
Americans may live a happy but sad life for a long time because of the car problem.

M: No. Everybody is too polite.
W: Well, you could try and talk to her.
M: Maybe. But I m afraid she might feel hurt.
W: Well, it all depends on how and when you say it. If you tell her about it in a friendly
way when she's not busy, she might be thankful. She might even ask you to remind
her of the time in the future.
M: Really? That would be wonderful. Thanks for your advice.

W: Hello, Mr. Tompkins. Our newspaper will carry some information about new products.
Now, will you tell us about the new home your company has built? It promises to be a
model for the houses of the future.

home system. It will make people's lives easier.
W: OK ! So tell me how this house will make my life easier?
M: When you arrive at the front door, you won't need a key. The door will open with a
touch of your finger. You'11 be able to call your refrigerator when you're in the
supermarket and find out how much you need to buy. Isn't it wonderful?
W: Can I call the washing machine as well?
M: Sure. But you won't need to. The house comes with a robot. It is programmed to do
cleaning and washing.
W: And what's the price of the new home?
M: A million dollars.
W: A million dollars! It will be the 22nd century before I can afford to buy one!

（Text 10）
A secret that was kept over two years has been told to the world recently: J.K. Rowling read an unfinished Harry Potter book over the phone to a young American girl dying of a serious disease. The name of the girl was Catie Hoch, a lover of the stories of Harry Potter. She died in May 2000 at the age of nine.“She left footprints on my heart,” Rowling said in her final days, first by e-mail and then by reading to her on the phone. Catie’s mother has kept it secret until recently. She told the secret now because she wanted more people to give money to a special fund as Rowling did. Rowling has given $100,000 to the special fund which was set up in memory of Catie Hoch to help other young victims of the disease that took Catie’s life.

Possible version:
Dear editor,
I'm a student in Senior Three. We have made a survey--"Who do you turn to when in trouble?" Here are the results.
Most of the students will go to their classroom or friends when in trouble they're almost of the same age, so they can talk with and understand each other easily. Some students will tell their teachers or parents about their troubles and ask for their help as the teachers and parents have rich experience and love them very much. They can be trusted by these students. Only a few students solve their problems all by themselves. They hate to talk with others and can’t get on well with others. They have few friends.
In my opinion, when in trouble we’d better ask our teachers, parents, friends or classmates for help. Different people have different experiences. And they are likely to help you out of the troubles. Then you can remove some of your difficulties and feel relaxed.
Thank you. Best wishes!
Yours
Jack

In this century the traditional American family is constantly faced with the threat of breakdown. Some sociologists suggest that one little – noticed cause may be the introduction of the TV dinner.
Before the appearance of television seats, the American dinner was a big event for the family. In many homes dinner time may be the only time when everyone got together. A typical dinner was usually in three stages. In the preparation stage, the children and Father frequently helped with setting while Mother put the last touches on the roast. In the eating stage, family members shared the day’s experiences and more than food was consumed. In this stage families got to know one another and made joint decisions around the dinner table, and thus the family solidarity was strengthened. In the cleaning – up stage, children or Father again gave their hands, so that their significance to the home community was clear. Unfortunately, all of these have been erased by a product—the television set.
By the beginning of the 1980s, the typical American family dinner was just twenty minutes long. The speed – up of this once – leisurely experiences is clearly connected to the overall pace of modern life and maybe a model of the modern life is the TV dinners—meals designed to be consumed between the opening and closing credits of a half – hour program. The once family affair has now become nothing more than the use of a fork and knife.
56. According to the passage, the American family is now threatened by .
A. poverty B. having few children
C. poor living conditions D. separation
57. In the past, Americans tended to .
A. spend more time eating their food at dinner table
B. eat more food than they have today
C. spend more time talking about their day’s experience at dinner table
D. talk so much that they forgot to eat
58. The shortening of the dinner time in America is related to .
A. the TV programs B. the pace of modern life
C. the wide use of household appliances D. the popularity of fast food
59. According to the passage, TV dinners are______.
A. meals consumed while one is watching TV
B. meals one learns to cook on TV
C. meals ordered on TV
D. meals consumed before TV
60. The best title for this passage might be .
A. Talk At Dinner Table B. TV Dinner
C. Pace Of Modern Life D. Problems Caused By TV

There are two basic ways to see growth: one as a product, the other as a process. People have generally viewed personal growth as an external（外部的） result or product that can easily be identified and measured. The worker who gets a promotion, the student whose grades improve, the foreigner who learns a new language – all these are examples of people who have measurable results to show for their efforts.
By contrast, the process of personal growth is much more difficult to determine, since by definition it is a journey and not the specific signposts or landmarks (路标) along the way. The process is not the road itself, but rather the attitudes and feelings people have, their caution or courage, as they go through new experiences and unexpected obstacles. In this process, the journey never really ends; there are always new ways to experience the world, new ideas to try new challenges to accept.
In order to grow, to travel new roads, people need to have a willingness to take risks, to be faced with the unknown, and to accept the possibility that they may “fail” at first. How we see ourselves as we try a new way of being is essential to our ability to grow. Do we find ourselves as quick and curious? If so, then we tend to take more chances and to be more open to unfamiliar experiences. Do we think we’re shy and indecisive? Then our sense of timidity can cause us to hesitate, to move slowly, and not to take a step until we know the ground is safe. So we think we’re slow to adapt to change or that we’re not smart enough to cope with a new challenge? Then we are likely to take a more passive role or not try at all.
These feelings of insecurity and self – doubt are both unavoidable and necessary if we are to change and grow. If we do not face and overcome these internal fears and doubts, if we protect ourselves too much, then we cease to grow. We become trapped inside a shell of our own making.
61. A person is generally believed to achieve personal growth when .
A. he has given up his smoking habit
B. he has made great efforts in his work
C. he is interested in making anything new
D. he has tried to determine where he is on his journey
62. In the author’s eyes, one who views personal growth as a process would .
A. succeed in climbing up the social ladder
B. judge his ability to grow from his own achievements
C. face difficulties and take up challenges
D. aim high and reach his goal each time
63. When the author says “a new way of being” (para. 3), he is referring to .
A. a new approach to experiencing the world
B. a new way of taking risks
C. a new method of finding ourselves
D. a new system of adapting to change
64. For personal growth, the author supports all of the following except .
A. curiosity and more chances B. being quick in self – adaptation
C. open – minded to new experiences D. avoidance of internal fears and doubts
C
A sense of humor is just one of the many things shared by Alfred and Anthony Melillo, 64-year-old twin brothers from East Haven who made history in February 2006. On Christmas Eve, 1996, Anthony had a heart transplant from a 21-year-old donor. Two days before Valentine’s Day in 2006, Alfred received a 19-year-old heart, marking the first time on record that twin adults each received heart transplants
“I’m 15 minutes older than him, but now I’m younger because of my heart and I’m not going to respect him,” Alfred said with a grin, pointing to his brother while talking to a roomful of reporters, who laughed frequently at their jokes.
While the twins knew that genetics might have played a role in their condition, they recognized that their eating habits might have also contributed to their heart problems. “We’d put half a pound of butter on a steak. I overdid it on all the food that tasted good, so I guess I deserved what I got for not dieting properly.”
The discussion moved to Anthony’s recovery. In the five years since his heart transplant, he had been on an exercise program where he regularly rode a bicycle for five miles, swam each day, and walked a couple of miles. He was still on medication, but not nearly as much as Alfred, who was just in the early stage of his recovery.
“Right now I feel pretty young and I’m doing very well,” Anthony said. “I feel like a new person.”
Alfred said his goal, of course, was to feel even better than his brother. But, he added, “I love my brother very much. We’re very close and I’m sure we’ll do just fine.”
65. This main idea of the passage is _________.
A. becoming young by getting a new heart
B. the effect of genetics on the heart
C. the twin brothers who received heart transplants
D. the danger of heart transplant surgery
66. What did Alfred and Anthony have in common?
A. Lifespan. ??? B. Career goals.
C. A sense of humor.??? D. Love for bicycling.
67.It is inferred from the passage that__________.
A. both of the new hearts weren’t paid at all
B. Anthony recovered better than Alfred
C. Alfred was still in hospital
D. people who have healthy diets won’t suffer heart attacks
68. Alfred said, “I’m 15 minutes older than him, but now I’m younger because of my heart” because__________.
A. he got a younger heart
B. his recovery from the heart surgery was faster than Anthony’s
C. his exercise program was better than Anthony’s
D. his heart transplant surgery was more successful than Anthony’s
D
American Thomas Schelling and Israeli-American Robert Aumann will share the 2005 Nobel Prize in economics. Both men have greatly influenced the way conflict and business negotiations are carried out.
The two men are being honored for their work in developing an economic idea. It is called game theory.
Game theory began as the study of decision-making in competitive situations, like games. John von Neumann and Oskar Morgenstern linked the theory of games with economic activities more than sixty years ago.
In the nineteen fifties, John Nash developed an idea known as the Nash equilibrium (平衡). The Nash equilibrium is the point where all sides in a competitive situation believe they have been given the best offer they will ever get. He proved this with mathematical methods.
Mr. Nash won the Nobel Prize in economics with two other men in 1994.
Mr. Schelling used the ideas of game theory to study real-life problems, such as the arms competition between the United States and the Soviet Union forty years ago. He was interested in what influenced negotiating groups. He showed how one side might decide to harm its interests for a short period of time to make gains over a longer period. Mr. Schelling also used game theory to show how people become divided by race. He found that divided societies can result even among persons mostly willing to live near people of another race.
Mr. Aumann developed game theory mathematically so that it can be useful for different areas of study. He showed that peaceful cooperation can provide good results for all competitors in a game over a long period. This is true even among competitors with a temporary conflict of interest. Mr. Aumann also considered how reasonable decisions are made among groups. He showed that knowing what competitors know is important to decision-making.
The work of both men has influenced areas of study other than economics. International negotiators, military planners, business leaders and biologists use methods developed by Mr. Schelling and Mr. Aumann.
Mr. Schelling, an American, is a retired professor of the University of Maryland. Mr. Aumann is a citizen of both the United States and Israel. He is a retired professor of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
69. Mr. Schelling and Mr. Aumann share the 2005 Nobel Prize in economics for .
A. developing “game theory” B. developing the Nash equilibrium
C. proving “game theory” D. beginning the study of “game theory”
70. The underlined phrase “make gains” in the sixth paragraph probably refers to .
A. suffer loss B. improve health C. make money D. make a profit
71. According to Mr. Aumann, when we want to reach a reasonable decision among groups, we .
A. don’t have to be informed what our competitors think
B. must have a good understanding of what our competitors know
C. need only think about how we can make the most of our own interests
D. needn’t peacefully cooperate with our competitors to make a profit
72. We can infer from the text that .
A. Mr. Aumann used “game theory” to study the arms competition between the US and the Soviet Union.
B. Mr. Schelling and Mr. Aumann only explained the game theory mathematically
C. most of the people are willing to live near their own competitors according to Mr. Schelling
D. the game theory developed by both men is very valuable to more than economics

Like many of my generation, I have a weakness for hero worship. At some point, however, we all begin to question our heroes and our need for them. This leads us to ask: What is a hero?
Despite immense differences in cultures, heroes around the world generally share a number of characteristics that instruct and inspire people.
A hero does something worth talking about. A hero has a story of adventure to tell and a community who will listen. But a hero goes beyond mere fame.
Heroes serve powers or principles larger than themselves. Like high voltage transformers, heroes take the energy of higher powers and step it down so that it can be used by ordinary people.
The hero lives a life worthy of imitation. Those who imitate a genuine hero experience life with new depth, enthusiasm, and meaning. A sure test for what would be heroes is what or whom do they serve? What are they willing to live and die for? If the answer or evidence suggests they serve only their own fame, they may be famous persons but not heroes. Madonna and Michael Jackson are famous, but who would claim that their fans find life richer?
Heroes are catalysts(催化剂) for change. They have a vision from the mountain top. They have the skill and the charm to move the masses. They create new possibilities. Without Gandhi, India might still be part of the British Empire. Without Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King, Jr., we might still have segregated (隔离的) buses, restaurants, and parks. It may be possible for large scale change to occur without leaders with magnetic personalities, but the pace of change would be slow, the vision uncertain, and the committee meetings endless.
73. Although heroes may come from different cultures, they _____________________.
A. generally process certain inspiring characteristics
B. probably share some weaknesses of ordinary people
C. are often influenced by previous generations
D. all unknowingly attract a large number of fans
74.Gandhi and Martin Luther King are typical examples of outstanding leaders who ___________ .
A. are good at demonstrating their charming characters
B. can move the masses with their forceful speeches
C. are capable of meeting all challenges and hardships
D. can provide an answer to the problems of their people
75.The author concludes that historical changes would ________ .
A. be delayed without leaders with inspiring personal qualities
B. not happen without heroes making the necessary sacrifices
C. take place if there were heroes to lead the people
D. produce leaders with attractive personalities

Each year there is an increasing number of cars as millions of new cars are produced in America. Americans will not live without cars! However, some have realized the serious problem of air pollution by cars. It is necessary to find ways to solve the problem of air pollution.
One way to clean the air is to build a new kind of clean car. That’s what several of the large car factories are trying to do. But to build a clean car is easier said than done. Progress in this field has been slow.
Another way is to take the place of the car engine by something else. Engineers are now working on it. Many makers believe that it will take years to develop a practical model that can please man.
To prevent the world being polluted by cars, Americans have to make some changes in the way of their life. They have to cut down on the number of their cars and are encouraged to travel and go to work by bike. But this change does not close down— many workers may find themselves without jobs if a car factory closes down. And the problem of their pollution would become less important than that of unemployment.
Americans may live a happy but sad life for a long time because of the car problem.

M: No. Everybody is too polite.
W: Well, you could try and talk to her.
M: Maybe. But I m afraid she might feel hurt.
W: Well, it all depends on how and when you say it. If you tell her about it in a friendly

home system. It will make people's lives easier.
W: OK ! So tell me how this house will make my life easier?

touch of your finger. You'11 be able to call your refrigerator when you're in the
supermarket and find out how much you need to buy. Isn't it wonderful?

（Text 10）
A secret that was kept over two years has been told to the world recently: J.K. Rowling read an unfinished Harry Potter book over the phone to a young American girl dying of a serious disease. The name of the girl was Catie Hoch, a lover of the stories of Harry Potter. She died in May 2000 at the age of nine.“She left footprints on my heart,” Rowling said in her final days, first by e-mail and then by reading to her on the phone. Catie’s mother has kept it secret until recently. She told the secret now because she wanted more people to give money to a special fund as Rowling did. Rowling has given $100,000 to the special fund which was set up in memory of Catie Hoch to help other young victims of the disease that took Catie’s life.

Possible version:
Dear editor,
I'm a student in Senior Three. We have made a survey--"Who do you turn to when in trouble?" Here are the results.
Most of the students will go to their classroom or friends when in trouble they're almost of the same age, so they can talk with and understand each other easily. Some students will tell their teachers or parents about their troubles and ask for their help as the teachers and parents have rich experience and love them very much. They can be trusted by these students. Only a few students solve their problems all by themselves. They hate to talk with others and can’t get on well with others. They have few friends.
In my opinion, when in trouble we’d better ask our teachers, parents, friends or classmates for help. Different people have different experiences. And they are likely to help you out of the troubles. Then you can remove some of your difficulties and feel relaxed.
Thank you. Best wishes!
Yours
Jack
