My favorite sport is running. But when I ran my first mile, it was the hardest thing I have done in my life. Now I"ve been running for 15 years. Each time I cover as much as 8 miles, and I"ve developed a habit of running everyday. Many people like running. There are several reasons why running seems to be the best form of exercise for them. Firstly, for instance, it is something everybody knows how to do already. So no special training is needed for it. Secondly, it is something you can do anywhere. Of course you must have a good pair of shoes. You can run if you"re leaving the city. You can run when you travel. Running is also something you can do at any time, during a lunch hour, or in early day morning.

八、Part Ⅲ Reading Comprehension(总题数：0，分数：0.00)
九、Task 1(总题数：1，分数：7.50)
The entertainment profession, or "show business", attracts many young people. Unfortunately, only very few can hope to become famous. Talent is not enough, because show business is as competitive as any other business. Without a good manager, a performer can never hope to succeed. Fashion is important in this business too. A performer must change their "act" in order to follow the taste of the moment. This is true for actors, dancers and comedians, but perhaps most of all for singers.
"Pop" stands for "popular", and a singer has to work very hard to become popular. They must either give the public what they want, or they must find a new way of singing that will attract their attention. Even when they have succeeded, and their records are sold everywhere, they can not relax. Then they must work harder than ever to remain popular, because there are always younger singers trying to become famous and to steal some of the popularity.
The life of a successful pop singer is not at all easy. They can only relax when they are alone, because everything they do is watched and reported in the special newspapers written for the "fans". The fans are the most important people in the world for the singers. They buy their records, they go to their concerts, and they make them rich and famous. But they can be very annoying too. Sometimes they get so crazy that they do anything to get a "souvenir". They steal handkerchiefs, they tear off buttons, and they even cut off pieces of the unfortunate singer"s hair.
Many singers have been forced to hide, and some who have not been so lucky as to escape have been stripped practically naked by their fans. Pop singers have to spend a lot of money on clothes, because they must always look smart, or, at any rate, different. They must have a luxurious car. And most important they must always keep smiling for the benefit of his public.（分数：7.50）

十、Task 2(总题数：1，分数：7.50)
The specific encounter I"m describing is one specific abduction (劫持) that occurred when I was 17. After I completed an ROTC pilot training course, I was on my way home. About that time I noticed a glowing object. The time was about 8:30. As this wasn"t my first encounter, I assumed it was a UFO. As I was staring at it from my car, I suddenly got out to view it. I was viewing the object for quite some time until I saw it drop down and land somewhere in the woods. I was then too scared to further investigate, so I ran back to my car and for some reason it would not start. I was about to walk down the road when I saw 4 - 5 figures emerge out of the woods. I was shocked and frightened. I did nothing but stare at the figures as they came closer until they came into my car and took me into their ship. Inside it was pitch-black and there was a screen on one wall and a chair right in front of it. They placed me in the chair and put some sort of drill(钻头) in my nose and then checked my eyes with some sort of metallic device that had a blue light. After they have done examining me they told me that I would not be harmed and I could return to my ear. Before they took me away I asked "Who or what are you"? The same voice responded telepathically (心灵感应地), "We are from the future. We travel back in time to get organs from humans before we evolve because our planet is dying." Then I was taken to my car. Since then, I haven"t been able to sleep well and I have a mental disorder. I have been placed in a mental hospital on three different occasions.（分数：7.50）

十一、Task 3(总题数：1，分数：7.50)
The business memo(备忘录) is probably the most frequently used communication within a company. It is called an intra-company communication because it is used by people in their own company or organization. They change to letters, however, when they write messages to people who do not work for their company. A memo creates a written record that may or may not be filed, depending on the receiver and the subject. As you know, spoken messages may be misunderstood or forgotten. A memo, however, becomes a record that does much to ensure the complete communication between the sender and the receiver. The standard form of a memo frequently carries a pre-printed series of items: To, From, Date, and Subject. The first two items include the names of the receiver and the sender. A well-written subject line tells the reader the key topic or topics the memo is about.
Business Memo

Function: for communication within a 1
Purpose: 1) to keep a 2
2) to 3 the complete communi
