/ You’re My Best Friend / / 你是我最好的朋友 /
《You’re My Best Friend》是英国皇后乐队(Queen)演唱的一首非常轻快的英文歌。整体感觉就像是海边的椰子树下,一帮好友躺在沙滩上,弹着琴喝着果汁儿,不用刻意地去说“You’re my best friend.”。大家心照不宣。
Ooo,you make me live
whatever this world can 1.give to me
It’s you,you’re all I see
Ooo,you make me live now honey
Ooo,you make me live
Ooo,you’re the best friend
that I ever had
I’ve been with you 2.such a long time
You’re my sunshine
And I want you to know
That my feelings are true
I really love you
Ooo,you’re my best friend
Ooo,you make me live
I’ve been wandering round
But I still 3.come back to you
In rain or shine
You’ve stood by me girl
I’m happy,happy at home
You’re my best friend
Ooo,you make me live
Whenever this world is cruel to me
I got you to help me forgive
Ooo,you make me live now honey
Ooo,you make me live
Ooo,you’re the first one
When things 4.turn out bad
You know I’ll never be lonely
You’re my only one
哦,你让我生活得有意义
无论这个世界可以给我什么
是你,你就是我见到的全部
哦,你现在让我生活得有意义,亲爱的
哦,你让我生活得有意义
你是我最好的朋友
没有之一
我和你在一起已经这么长时间了
你就是我的阳光
而且我要你知道
我的感情是真挚的
我真的爱你
你是我最好的朋友
哦,你让我生活得有意义
我一直在徘徊
但我还是会回到你身边
在雨里,在阳光下
你一直伴我同行
即使在家我也感觉到快乐
你是我最好的朋友
哦,你让我生活得有意义
无论这个世界对我多么残忍
我有你帮我饶恕
哦,你现在让我生活得有意义,
亲爱的
哦,你让我生活得有意义
你是我第一个要找的人
当周围的环境都变得乱糟糟的时候
你也知道,我永不会孤独
你就是我的唯一

COVERSATION 1
T=Teacher S=Student
T: Shh! Listen carefully!
[3-second beep at about 40 kHz, i.e.ultrasonic, dog-whistle range.]
T: Did you hear that? No? How about this?
[3-second beep at 17.4 kHz]
T: If you couldn’t hear the first one, it means you’re not a dog![laugh].Dogs can hear very high frequency sounds, but people can’t.And if you could hear the second one, you’re younger than 25.
S: Wow! Why is that?
T: Our ears change when we get older.Children and young people can hear the second one, but most people older than 25 can’t.
COVERSATION 2
T=Teacher A=Team A B=Team B
T: Today’s topic is “Should teenagers date?” Team A, please begin.
A: We say no, they shouldn’t.One reason is that teenagers are too young.They should think about schoolwork and spend more time studying.
B: We don’t agree with Team A.Our answer is “Yes”.Teenagers can date if they want.It is quite natural for a teenager at that age to feel he or she likes somebody.We think it’s possible for teenagers to date and study at the same time.
T: Team A?...

Listening Tips
1.预测内容
Before you listen, you can read the questions and the choices.It will help you to predict what you will hear.For example, from Question 1’s choices, we can find A and B are similar, which is important.During your listening, when you hear “Did you hear that?” “If you couldn’t hear the first one...if you could hear the second one” “Our ears change when...”,you may know the answer is A.
2.巧听爆破音
(1)爆破音+爆破音:6个爆破音【t,d,k,g,p,b】中的任意2个相临时,前一个爆破音会失去爆破,即由相关的发音器官做好这个发音的姿势,稍做停顿后即发后面的爆破音。例如You’ve stoo(d) by me, girl.
(2)爆破音+摩擦音:如果前面是爆破音,其后紧跟着某些摩擦音(如/f/,/s/,/w/等),那么前面那个爆破音仅有十分轻微的爆破,而后面那个摩擦音则要完全爆破。例如You’re the bes(t) friend.
【即时训练】
听下面3段对话回答问题,并辨别对话中的爆破音。
1.What are the speakers talking about?
A.Going out.
B.Ordering drinks.

Dear Mary,
How are you? I saw you posted some wonderful photos of the coastline near your hometown.You’re really getting into your photography! Right now I’m taking a break from social media(媒体) to write you an email.
Remember you said you’d like to come over to the UK sometime this year? Well, I was thinking that this year you might like to come to the Edinburgh Festival with me in August.I’ve got an aunt with a flat in the city centre who could put us up.
Do you know much about the festival? It’s very famous—one of the biggest,most popular art festivals in the world! There are lots of things going on—art exhibitions(展览),concerts of all kinds,modern dance,a book festival, etc.The thing it’s most famous for is the newest and most exciting theatre.People come from all over the world and perform(表演) in their own language.
In Scotland you have the best of both worlds: culture and wild land.After the festival, we could hire(租) a car and go up to some of the islands off the west coast, like Skye.The weather can be changeable in August,but the landscape(风景) is beautiful,with empty beaches and rocky mountains.It’s the perfect place for you to take photos.Afterwards, we could head back to the east coast and visit my friend Rob in St.Andrews.It’s really pretty and Rob’s enjoyable to be with.You’d get on well with him.
So, why don’t you have a think about it and then get back to me? Take your time, there’s no rush.
Speak to you soon,
Sophie

After failing an important exam in my life and missing the opportunity to be an exchange(交换) student in a university of my dreams, I kept trying to avoid Facebook so I wouldn’t have to see the information about it.It was after this that I slowly quit using Facebook.
Facebook made me feel uneasy, sad and like a failure.When I went online, it seemed that everyone was in Australia or Thailand.And if they weren’t travelling, they were getting married or landing great jobs.I felt like everyone was living the dream and I was still at home with my parents, with my student loan(贷款) hanging over me.
I also felt that if I wasn’t eating at restaurants or posting photos from nights out, people would think I wasn’t living.I remember that a friend said to me once, “Yeah, but you’re still going out having fun, and I’ve seen on Facebook.” I tried to present myself as always having a great time.If what I posted on social media didn’t get more than five likes, I’d delete(删除) it.
My life has changed for the better since I stopped using social media.I now enjoy catching up with my friends.When they tell me new plans, my response isn’t just, “Yeah, I saw it on Facebook.” It makes me realize who my real friends are and how social media takes the joy out of sharing news with people.I also feel less uneasy and less of a failure.
I’m planning to visit a friend in Australia next month.My mom and a couple of other friends want me to go back on Facebook to share my pictures.I’d_really_prefer_not_to,_though.

Before you make friends,you have to decide who you want to be your friends.Most people like to have friends who like to do the same kind of things they do.
The quickest way to make a friend is to smile.When you smile, people think you are friendly and easy to talk to.It may not be easy at first to smile, but remember most people will stay away from a scared or angry looking.
One easy way to start a conversation with someone is to say something nice about him.Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you.Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to that person?
Ask your new friends questions about themselves.Who’s their favourite singer, where do they live, what do they do after school are all good questions to start a conversation.Make sure you have something to add to the conversation, too.When someone asks you a question, do have an answer for it.There is nothing that will stop a conversation quicker than a_shrug_for_an_answer.
Kids who show an interest in other kids and who are kind and friendly make good friends.Remember, everyone wants to be around people who like to do similar things and people who are nice to them.

Before you make friends,you have to decide who you want to be your friends.Most people like to have friends who like to do the same kind of things they do.
The quickest way to make a friend is to smile.When you smile, people think you are friendly and easy to talk to.It may not be easy at first to smile, but remember most people will stay away from a scared or angry looking.
One easy way to start a conversation with someone is to say something nice about him.Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you.Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to that person?
Ask your new friends questions about themselves.Who’s their favourite singer, where do they live, what do they do after school are all good questions to start a conversation.Make sure you have something to add to the conversation, too.When someone asks you a question, do have an answer for it.There is nothing that will stop a conversation quicker than a_shrug_for_an_answer.
Kids who show an interest in other kids and who are kind and friendly make good friends.Remember, everyone wants to be around people who like to do similar things and people who are nice to them.

Like any new ninth-grader on the first day of school,Joemar Class had ninth-grader emotion(情绪).He’s not used to school in Hartford.He’s used to going to school in his hometown of Florida,used to seeing his friends,used to having class in Spanish.
“Nervioso,”he said in Spanish.
We first met Joemar in mid-October in the San Juan Airport.His father,Guillermo Class,had sold his car to buy plane tickets to get his kids and fly them up from Puerto Rico.The island was almost destroyed(毁坏) by the deadly storm—Hurricane Maria.
Now,they are settling into their new home in Hartford’s South End.A week later,and,using his wife’s car,Class drove 16-year-old Joemar to his first day at Bulkeley High School.After a short ride,he got out in front of his new school.Inside,he met Gretchen Levitz—the school’s program director.

Kids and science seem to be made for each other!
The basic science is a combination of thought and experiment called the scientific method.It’s where you start with an idea, create a way to prove or disprove your idea, and show what you learned based on facts.Learning to follow this process helps you think logically(逻辑地) and carefully.These important thinking skills can be used in many areas of study.To give a child practice with these thinking skills is like giving vitamins(维生素) to a developing mind.
One of the greatest things we can teach our children is to love learning.Learning science is a great way to do so.Children are easy to be interested in science.Because much of science is hands-on, it attracts most children.Nothing makes a child sit up and take notice like the “WOW!” of a great science showing.
Science opens doors to many subjects at school.Building love for science can be helpful in other areas of study.For example, one cannot love science for very long without becoming good at its language—math! So science encourages children to study math.An interest in science is an interest in how things were once understood compared to how they are understood now.Thus studying science lends itself easily to studying history.And after you do an experiment, you need to write a lab report.Therefore, writing becomes an important part of science.
Science is the basic thing for much of our life.The science of farming shows how our food is produced; biomedical science keeps us healthy; even our beds these days are designed according to scientific facts.We almost eat, sleep and breathe with the help of science! When we prepare the next generation(一代) of voters, creators, and policy makers, it is important to make sure they are not only comfortable but also good at science.
【解题导语】 小孩子应该学习科学,因为学习科学对他们而言有很多好处。

Like any new ninth-grader on the first day of school,Joemar Class had ninth-grader emotion(情绪).He’s not used to school in Hartford.He’s used to going to school in his hometown of Florida,used to seeing his friends,used to having class in Spanish.
“Nervioso,”he said in Spanish.
We first met Joemar in mid-October in the San Juan Airport.His father,Guillermo Class,had sold his car to buy plane tickets to get his kids and fly them up from Puerto Rico.The island was almost destroyed(毁坏) by the deadly storm—Hurricane Maria.
Now,they are settling into their new home in Hartford’s South End.A week later,and,using his wife’s car,Class drove 16-year-old Joemar to his first day at Bulkeley High School.After a short ride,he got out in front of his new school.Inside,he met Gretchen Levitz—the school’s program director.
“I see you have a new uniform(校服),”Levitz said.“You look great.Are you ready for a good first day?”
Then he met a couple of teachers.
“Hello,” they each said in Spanish.They asked where he’s from,and told him they were happy to see him.Then,Levitz took him on a quick tour of the school before classes began—to her office,the school store,the library,and the dining hall.

A snowboarder was feeling lucky to be alive yesterday after a helicopter rescue(直升机营救).
Ben Akintola, 30, was snowboarding in the French Alps under a clear blue sky in the afternoon when a large amount(数量) of snow fell down the side of the mountain.He didn’t have time to escape(逃脱) and it hit him with full force and knocked him senseless.
He woke in the middle of the night in total darkness.He was lying on an icy rock.Amazingly, he still had a mobile phone signal(信号), so he called a friend a thousand kilometers away in Britain.His friend called the French rescue services.
“I was waiting for what seemed like hours on that rock.I was beginning to give up hope when I heard the sound of a helicopter.It was circling around in the darkness, looking for me.I was trying my best to wave my mobile around.Fortunately the helicopter pilot saw the light.”
“I was overjoyed when the helicopter headed my way.It stayed above me and began lowering a rope.”
Ben was in hospital last night but he was not being treated for any serious injuries.He’s looking forward to going home today.
The French rescue services said, “We were very pleased that we were able to save Ben.The risk of snowslide off-piste(非滑雪场地的) is much higher at this time of year.All snowboarders and skiers should stay on the ski runs and not go off-piste.Ben was very lucky.”

Clara Barton, born on Christmas in 1821, is widely known as one of the most honoured women in American history.She began teaching school when most teachers were men at that time.Later, she became one of the first women ever to be employed(雇用) by the government.
Her career in helping the sick began when her brother David became her first patient.He fell down from the roof of a house when Clara was just 11 years old.She stayed by his side and looked after him for three years, learning how to give him all his medicines.
When the Civil War began in 1861, she immediately recognised that the poorly equipped soldiers needed help.Instead of waiting for others to step in, Clara collected necessary things on her own, asked the public for donations and learnt how to store and distribute them to soldiers.She also read to the soldiers and wrote letters for them.
After the Battle of Cedar Mountain in northern Virginia in 1862, Clara arrived at a field hospital at midnight with a vehicle full of supplies.A doctor named Paul Smith at that hospital would later write, “I thought heaven had sent out an angel that night—her assistance arrived at exactly the right time.”
In 1869, Clara went to Europe and learnt about the International Committee of the Red Cross.Upon her return to the United States, she successfully founded the American Red Cross.She led the organisation for the next 23 years.Her last field mission(使命) as leader of the American Red Cross was to help the victims of the 1900 Galveston hurricane.She did not retire from the American Red Cross until she was 83.True to her nature, Clara always went to where the need was the greatest.
Today, the American Red Cross continues the mission Clara started more than 100 years ago.With the help of thousands of volunteers, the American Red Cross provides relief to victims of disasters, as well as helps people prevent, prepare for and respond to all sorts of emergencies.

Dear_Jack,
I’m_sorry_to_hear_that_you_are_lonely_in_your_new_school.However,the situation is easy to change if you take my advice.
First of all,don’t be too worried.Everyone may have such bad times when they move to a new environment.Second,you should greet your teachers and classmates when meeting them on campus.It is always easier to make new friends when you show your friendliness first.Third,it would be a good idea if you often take an active part in class activities,which is a good way for others to learn about you.
I hope you will find my suggestions helpful and begin to make new friends as soon as possible.
Yours,

第二部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分50分)
第一节(共16小题;每小题2.5分,满分40分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
When Facebook was entirely used by people under the age of 25, things were simple.But now an important social question has appeared—should you “friend” your child, or accept a parent as a “friend”?
Lindsay Stewart, 15, completely understands why you’d refuse a parent’s friend request.Her parents have agreed on not becoming Facebook friends.Lindsay says, “She said she wasn’t going to ask to be friends.My brother and I were relieved(放心的).”
Though there may be nothing embarrassing or secrets being discussed, it’s not a place she wants her mother to have access to.Lindsay explains, “My mum is my mum.I like her, but she’s not necessarily what I’d call my friend.”
Mum is Sandy Stewart, a 50-year-old Indiana-born mother of two now living in South London.Mrs Stewart has strong opinions about what role a parent should play in the world’s biggest networking site—stay away from your children.“I wouldn’t dream of being friends.There’s no way,” Mrs Stewart insists and suggests trying “friending” could seem like an invasion of privacy(侵犯隐私).
Yet Tim Harness, 54, and his daughter Josie, 18, are “friends” on Facebook and perfectly happy.Josie left home in the summer for university in Plymouth, and Mr Harness can see her online.“I have a little look at her photos now and again,” he explains.“She seems to be having a good time.”
Josie tells me it’s reassuring(令人安心的) to know that her father’s checking up on her every few days.She has plenty of family friends and what they see on her Facebook doesn’t concern her.“The worst dad might see is a photo of me a bit drunk, ” she says.“Is it an invasion of privacy? Not really.Everyone has Facebook these days.In my view, the only reason why you wouldn’t want them is if you’ve got something to hide.”
【解题导语】 父母和孩子是否可以在Facebook上成为朋友? 文中举例说明了人们的不同观点。
21.After Lindsay’s parents promised not to “friend” their kids, she________.
A.still looked worried B.thought it was a trick
C.felt quite relaxed D.made her privacy public
C 解析:细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“My brother and I were relieved(放心的).”可知C项正确。
22.Which of the following best describes Lindsay’s parents?
A.Understanding. B.Outgoing(外向的).
C.Warm-hearted. D.Caring.
A 解析:推理判断题。根据第四段内容及最后一句话,他们认为加孩子为朋友会侵犯孩子的隐私,可以推知,他们是很“通情达理的” 。
23.The writer mentioned the Stewart family and the Harness family to show________.
A.Facebook is popular with people of all ages
B.young people pay no attention to protecting their privacies
C.parents play an important role in social websites
D.different opinions about “friending a child” online
D 解析:推理判断题。作者提到Stewart和Harness两家人,是以此为例,说明人们对此事的看法。
24.What can be learned from the passage?
A.Social websites are not safe enough.
B.Parents should care more for their kids in real life.
C.Tim Harness checked up on Josie’s Facebook with her agreement.
D.It is only an excuse for kids to refuse their parents on Facebook.
C 解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句话“Josie tells me it’s reassuring(令人安心的) to know that her father’s checking up on her every few days.”可知Josie允许父亲关注她。
B
I’ve always been interested in computers and technology, and I made a few apps(应用程序) for the iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad.I’d like to share a couple with you today.My first app is “Earth Fortune”.My favorite and most successful app is “Bustin Jieber”—which is a Justin Bieber whack-a-mole(打地鼠游戏).I created it because a lot of people at school disliked the pop star a little bit, so I decided to make the app.I released(发布) it on December 21, 2010.
A lot of people asked me, how did I make these? A lot of times it’s because the person who asked the question wants to make an app also.Where do you go to find out how to make an app? Well, this is how I got close to it, and this is what I did.
First of all, I’d already been programming in many programming languages to get the basics down, such as Python, C, Java, etc.And then Apple released the iPhone with the software development kit(软件开发工具包)—a set of tools for creating and programming an iPhone app.This opened up a whole new world of possibilities for me, and after playing with the kit a little bit, I made a couple of test apps.I persuaded my parents to pay 99 dollars to be able to put my apps on the App Store.They agreed, and now I have apps on the App Store.
I’ve gotten a lot of creative ideas from Steve Jobs, and I’ve started an app club at school with the help of my teacher.Any student at my school can come and learn how to design an app.
I’d like to finish up by saying what I’d like to do in the future.I’m working with a third party company to make an app.My next goal is to get into Android programming and development, continue my app club, and find other ways for students to share knowledge with others.
That’s all.Thank you!

In early November of 1942, my geology(地质学) class was supposed to go on a field trip to see the mica mine(云母矿).Although it rained, everyone showed up on time.I was the only girl in the class.We all fit into two cars.
Near Deary, Mr.Tier, our teacher, went into a store to ask about the direction, while townsmen looked at us with curiosity.On the store owner’s advice, we drove out into the hills for a few miles.Then we left the cars.We were afraid they would get stuck in the mud.
Eventually, we located the mine near the top of the mountain.There was a very small hole, running about two or three hundred feet into the mountainside.The passage(通道) was so narrow that we could touch both sides with our hands, and not tall enough to allow us to stand up straight.The first boy held the torch;we took hold of the backs of each other’s coats, in a line, and followed him in, ducking our heads.After getting in, we were disappointed because it was not the mine our teacher was looking for.
The rain was coming down hard as we started back to the cars to go home.Back at Deary, we went into a drugstore and stood around its big heating stove to dry out.The clerk was a middle-aged lady.Seeing our entirely wet hair and clothes, she handed each of us a cup of hot water immediately and asked if there was anything wrong with any of us.
Hiking eight miles in the rain had not reduced our interest at all.We all felt we had had a wonderful time, even if we didn’t find the mine.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了作者的老师带领全班同学进行了一次户外寻矿活动。
29.Why did the class leave the cars halfway?
A.Because their cars broke down in Deary.
B.Because it was not easy to drive in the mud.
C.Because townsmen were curious about their cars.
D.Because the store owner gave them a wrong direction.
B 解析:细节理解题。根据第二段的We were afraid they would get stuck in the mud.可知,下雨天路上全是泥,开车很困难,他们担心车陷在泥里。
30.What does the underlined word “ducking” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.Turning. B.Touching.
C.Lowering. D.Hitting.
C 解析:词义猜测题。根据第三段的The passage(通道) was...not tall enough to allow us to stand up straight.可知,通道不够高,他们不能抬头,只能猫着腰,“低”头前进。
31.Which of the following can best describe the clerk of the drugstore?
A.Impatient. B.Careless.
C.Hard-working. D.Warm-hearted.
D 解析:推理判断题。根据第四段中的Seeing our entirely wet hair and clothes, she handed each of us a cup of hot water immediately and asked if there was anything wrong with any of us.可知,药店的店员很热心。
32.What can we know from the passage?
A.The class failed to see the mica mine.
B.The weather terribly influenced the trip.
C.The teacher was not professional enough.
D.The author was not liked by her classmates.
A 解析:细节理解题。根据末段的We all felt we had had a wonderful time, even if we didn’t find the mine.可知,作者所在班级并没有找到云母矿。

Dogs certainly need to bark(犬吠) every now and then, but if your neighbor’s dog is getting in the way of your daily life, you need to do something.
“Before you take action, you should record the dates and times that the barking happens to find out any patterns,” says Schweitzer, who is a dog owner.You might notice the barking only happens when the owners are at work, or during thunderstorms.
After two to three weeks of observing(观察), go to your neighbors with the facts.Wait for a time when the barking is over.“Since you’re trying to keep a good relationship, you can’t go when you’re angry and upset,” says Schweitzer.Besides, your neighbors might not even realize the barks are a problem, especially if the worst barking happens when they’re not at home.
Politely explain the times when the barking gets bad, and then suggest a way of solving the problem.Ask if the dog can stay inside during storms, or offer a dog training class.
Making friends with the dog could help you gain some peace and quiet.If your neighbors introduce you to their dog, you should give the dog a treat.“If they become more comfortable seeing you, they’re less likely to bark when they see you or when they’re in the backyard,” says Schweitzer.
Whatever you do, don’t talk with your other neighbors about the problem or start a petition(诉状) to get the dog to quiet down.“Those make people feel angry,” says Schweitzer.“That’s when things escalate.”
If weeks go by and you still aren’t seeing a difference, follow up with a note.Tie a dog treat on the note to build trust with your neighbors, and make a copy before dropping it off.That way, you’ll have evidence(证据) that you’ve discussed it before and followed up politely if you need to bring in a third party, says Schweitzer.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。如果邻居家的狗总是叫个不停,影响到了你的生活,你该怎么做呢?
33.What should people do first according to Schweitzer?
A.Record when the dog barks.
B.Find out why the barking happens.
C.Find out if the dog is really dangerous.
D.Record when the neighbor is usually out.
A 解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的Before you take action, you should record the dates...says Schweitzer可知,首先要记录下邻居家的狗什么时候叫。
34.When would be a good time for you to talk to your neighbor?
A.When the dog is barking.
B.When you are feeling calm.
C.When you’ve found a problem.

第二节 读后续写(满分25分)
阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
That first afternoon, when I came downstairs from my classroom and put my hand in my mailbox, I got a sinking feeling in my stomach.The check I expected and badly needed wasn’t there.
When I asked the school secretary what happened, she informed me that the teachers weren’t paid until the end of the month.This was a problem.I had only four dollars left, and the end of the month was a whole month away.
My first teaching experience had been in a small school in Missouri, where the teachers always received the first month’s check the first day of school.Now, here in the big St.Louis Public School System, I found things worked differently.
What to do? I had come into St.Louis two weeks before as required for all new teachers to prepare their lessons and had spent my little reserve.Now with the four dollars I couldn’t even pay for my cheap motel room that night, much less buy dinner and gasoline.
I had my trumpet(小号) in the car, as I played the trumpet and a little piano.So I did something most musicians have done at one time or another.I decided to pawn(典当) my trumpet.
I drove downtown to an unpleasant area where the pawn shops and cheap bars were.I pawned my trumpet for fifteen dollars, and now I had enough money to get_through the night and the next day of school, but then what?
There was a little bar nearby.I walked in and ordered a thirty-cent beer.I was the only customer.I sat there sipping my beer and trying to think my way out of this problem.
“You look like you lost your last friend, Son,”said the owner of the bar.“What’s the matter?”
His name was Charlie,_and he was a pleasant man about 60, which seemed quite old to me at the time.I was about 24.I told him what had happened and about pawning my trumpet.Then I stared at the old piano I had seen as I came in the door.

One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
“Play the piano, too, do you?”asked Charlie.Wearing a pleasant smile on his face, he said,“Perhaps it can help you get_through the trouble.”I felt my eyes light up at the invitation.“Really?”A feeling of hesitation, however, fell upon me.Finding the anxiety in my eyes, Charlie put his hands on my shoulder, encouraging me to give it a try.When I finished a piece, he applauded.“No problem at all!”Since then, I would often spend time in the bar and make the most relaxing time.Though there was usually no customer at all, Charlie was invariably my royal listener.
Paragraph 2:
When, after a month, I finally got paid, I went back to the bar.With great gratitude towards Charlie, I knocked at the door.However, no one came to answer the door.Then it confused me that the door was not locked and there was nothing inside except the old piano.A piece of paper on it drew my attention.I learnt from the letter that Charlie had been to California and would never come back.But what impressed me most was the last line and it remains my motto.It reads,“God never takes your hope away.”
