Samaranch holds a special place in
the hearts of many Chinese, as he
brought the country into the Olympic
spotlight. Here is a look at Samaranch and his friendship with China.
In many Chinese people’s memory, two historic moments about Samaranch are the most never-to-be-forgotten. Following Samaranch’s election as IOC President, he helped
China gain a newfound place in the Olympic movement. Chinese officials quickly held important positions within the IOC, but Samaranch had another goal for China—to award a Chinese an Olympic gold. In 1984 on the first day of the Los Angeles Olympics, this came true. Chinese shooter Xu Haifeng pocketed the first gold in Chinese history, and Samaranch was the one to hang the gold around Xu’s neck. In the following years, Samaranch made great efforts to help Beijing’s bid for the 2008 Olympic Games. On July 13th,
2001, Samaranch awarded the 2008 Olympics to Beijing. Three days later, Samaranch finished his Olympic reign(任期). In August 2008, the 87-year-old Samaranch came to Beijing to witness the uncommon success of the 2008 Olympic Games.
Samaranch once said he had love and friendship for China and he had learned to love and respect the people. In return, his efforts to promote China within the Olympic movement have earned Samaranch the continued respect and love of many Chinese.

A major earthquake rocked Haiti at 4: 53 pm local time on Jan. 12, 2010, killing possibly thousands of people but no official figure has been released so far.
The quake, which struck about 15km (10 miles) south-west of the capital, Port-au-Prince, was quickly followed by two strong aftershocks. In the space of a minute, numerous buildings fell down. A five-story U. N. building was also brought down by the 7. 3 magnitude quake, the most powerful to hit Haiti in more than 200 years according to the U. S. Geological Survey.
As night fell, the whole city is in total darkness. You can see thousands of people sitting in the streets with nowhere to go. There are people running, crying, screaming. Describing the earthquake as a “catastrophe”, Haiti’s president said the cost of the damage could run into billions.
Haiti became the first independent Caribbean state in the early 19th century. Haiti’s location, history and attracting climate once made it a tourist-hot place. However, decades of poverty, environmental pollution and violence have left it as the poorest nation in the Americas. It has suffered a lot, including four hurricanes and storms in 2008 that killed hundreds.

In our recent English class, we had a heated discussion about whether computers do more good than harm in our daily life.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【参考答案】
In our recent English class, we had a heated discussion about whether computers do more good than harm in our daily life.
Firstly, computers have been built to serve the human race since their birth. They can deal with tedious mathematical problems, saving us lots of time and labor. Another advantage is that they can store quantities of documents in the form of words or pictures. Besides,
connected to the Internet, they can be used to promote the communication among people.
While we benefit a lot from them, we cannot ignore their disadvantages. It does great harm to our health if we spend too much time in front of them. Many children are so addicted to the computer games that their studies are badly affected. Worse still, we may get cheated by misleading information spread on the Internet, which may cause a great loss.
【备选题】阅读表达(共5小题;每小题3分,满分15分)
阅读下面的短文,并根据短文后的要求答题(请注意问题后的词数要求)。
If you are worried about things and are under a lot of stress at work or school, then you are probably not sleeping well. Worry can keep you awake, tossing and turning in bed until the early hours of the morning when you eventually fall asleep. When you wake up, you don’t feel refreshed, but tired and worn out and unable to face a new day.
Dr. Henry Winkle, in a recent newspaper article entitled Stress and Sleep, indicates that _________________________ . Dr. Winkle says, “The more we worry, the less we sleep, the more we are unable to deal with stress. If we can find a way to get a good night’s sleep, ” he adds, “we can often find the energy to deal with what’s worrying us. ”
So, what is a good night’s sleep Research shows that the amount of sleep which people need in order to keep healthy varies a lot. Seven hours is about the average amount, though strangely enough, sleeping longer often gives you a headache instead of making you feel more refreshed.
Dr.Winkle believes that preparing for sleeping is important. People who work late should try to give themselves a short break and do something restful before going to bed. This could be watching TV or listening to music. Doing some exercise earlier in the day should help you to feel physically as well as mentally tired. A bedtime drink can also help, but coffee or tea should be avoided as they contain caffeine and will keep you awake. “When you put the light out, ” Dr. Winkle says, “concentrate on relaxing your muscles, working slowly up from your feet, and you’ll be asleep before you know it. ”
