(Text 1)
W: Aren’t we meeting Paul at 6:30?
M: We were, but he sent me a message a moment ago suggesting 7:30 instead.
W: But I want to grab a coffee together before the game.
M: Well, the two of us still can. The game doesn’t start till eight.
(Text 2)
W: I can’t wait for Sunday!
M: Ah, yes, it’s your birthday.
W: Oh, don’t remind me. I never celebrate that. I am celebrating something though — I passed my
driver’s test and my sister is taking me out.
(Text 3)
W: You destroyed Peter’s laptop. Don’t you think you owe him an apology and maybe some money?
M: Oh, come on! Why did he leave it open with a cup of tea right there?
(Text 4)
W: Please, I just need a few minutes of your time to straighten out some of the facts.
M: I’ve already discussed the matter with your colleagues. I just don’t see the point of discussing the
obvious.
(Text 5)
W: I haven’t got a clue as to when we’re going to get our marks for last week’s exam.
M: Neither have I. Professor Hartford’s an excellent lecturer but he’s rarely very efficient at
administrative matters, is he?
(Text 6)
W: Sorry I’m late. I couldn’t find a parking space nearby, so I had to park my car several blocks away.
M: I hope you didn’t walk too far. So ... I called you because the lights in this room aren’t functioning.
W: OK. Does anybody need to use this room today?
M: Well, I’m supposed to meet a job applicant after lunch ... but I can do it in another room.
(Text 7)
W: What do you think we should do today?
M: Well, it’s our first day in the city so we should do some sightseeing.
W: How about renting bicycles and exploring the city on our own?
M: But I wanted to take the bus that goes on a tour of the whole city. It has a guide who gives
information about the sights and it also makes stops if you want to eat or go shopping.
W: Not a bad idea, but we can do that another day. I’ll stick with my idea. It’s such a nice day and we
need some exercise.
M: You’re right.
(Text 8)
W: Mr. Lang, this is Trudy from Super Value. I am pleased to tell you we have found a buyer for your
house who will match your asking price.
M: Really? That’s fantastic! How soon will he be able to move in?
W: I already discussed that with him and he said he would be prepared to sign the contract at any time
and take possession as early as next week. He said he is eager to start decorating the house and
making it his own.
M: That’s OK. We can close the deal this Friday. Then I will make arrangements to have my furniture
moved to my new house across town this weekend.

M: So, Barbara, you’re famous as a journalist, and you’ve written Nickel and Dimed based on your
research. Could you start by telling us why you do secret investigations?
W: Sure. Interviews are fine, but sometimes you need to experience it yourself. By putting yourself in
the situation you’re investigating ... you can then write from a more informed point of view.
M: I see. So, what did you do?
W: Well, I worked as a waitress, a hotel housekeeper, a nursing home assistant, and a supermarket
clerk. I spent a month in each low-paid job, working in Florida, Maine, and Minnesota.
M: Wow, that’s a lot of different jobs, and places! What exactly did you find out?
W: Well, first, the rents were very high and the wages were so low. Also, you have to be a hard worker!
Interviewing people is one thing, but actually doing the job day to day shows you exactly how hard
these people’s lives are.
M: Hmm. And of course, Nickel and Dimed went onto be a very popular book. It was a New York
Times best seller.
W: Yes, I was really surprised at all the interest. I think it really opened people’s eyes, a first-hand account
like that. I hope my book can attract more attention, so as to improve the situation of people in low-paid
jobs.

M: Considering gardening, people tend to picture an elderly man or woman in front of their house. Yet
a recent study among 2,000 young people aged between 18 and 34 has revealed that gardening is
becoming increasingly popular among young people. Kev Smith, who organized the survey, said that
the study showed that gardening suits everyone, whatever their age. On average, young adults spend
around two hours per week taking care of their plants. Two-thirds of participants also said that they
love shopping for gardening items, including plants, seeds and tools. Naturally, the item that is bought
most frequently is gardening gloves, probably the item that is most frequently used too. The most
popular place to grow plants is on the kitchen windows, while living rooms, bathrooms, and balconies
are also popular locations. The study also found that 60 per cent wish they had access to more outside
space than they do at present. However, 78 per cent believe you do not actually need a big outdoor
area to experience the benefits of gardening. Gardening is brilliant for our minds. It includes
concentrating on what you are doing right now, repetitive actions and using all your senses, like touch
and smell.

小作文
Dear Jack,
An activity with the theme of “Relieve Pressure and Study Efficiently” is planned by our English
club. We’d like to have you as our guest.
Firstly, the activity will be held in the school auditorium at 3 p. m. next Saturday. It aims to
alleviate students’ mental stress and empower them to study more efficiently. Specifically, a
psychological expert will be invited to deliver a lecture to help students know various adjustment
techniques and understand how to turn pressure into motivation. More interestingly, we will organize
English riddle-solving games to shift students’ focus away from the overwhelming schoolwork
pressure. Last but not least, top students will share their practical methods for study.
Hopefully, students can better handle stress, learn efficiently, and embrace the challenges.
Looking forward to your attendance and it would be appreciated if you could give us some insights.
Sincerely,
Li Hua
大作文
Paragraph 1:
That big day of the baby’s birth, I felt all my insecurities surface. At the sight of my mother’s
painful expressions due to giving birth, I was torn between the anticipation of a new life and the fear
of losing my place in her heart. The hospital room was all hustle and bustle, with doctors and nurses
passing about, but all my focus was on the woman who had been my world for so long. I clung to her
hand, feeling the warmth and strength that had always been there for me, and I realized that no matter
what, she would always be my mother. I comforted her, saying, “Mom, don’t worry. I’ll be there to
help take care of the new baby. Just breathe!”. Finally, the moment the baby’s first cries echoed
through the room, tears blurring my vision, I felt a mix of emotions surging through me—relief, awe,
and a strange sense of belonging that I had never felt before.
Paragraph 2:
I cried because I never thought I could love a baby so much. As I held my newborn baby sister
in my arms, all the doubts and resentment I had for so long seemed to vanish. This tiny, fragile baby,
with its eyes shut and soft breaths, had incredibly melted away the hardness in my heart. Looking
down at this little miracle, I felt a surge of protectiveness and affection that I had never known I was
capable of. The baby’s small fingers curled around my own, and in that instant, I understood the true
meaning of family—it’s not just about sharing a home, but about sharing love and life’s journey
together. The bitterness that had once clouded my heart gave way to a newfound joy and a sense of
responsibility that I was now an older sister, and I embraced this role with open arms.
