Cyber Boy 5-26-2014 2:15 pm
Hi, I'm planning a trip to Europe this summer.I haven’t decided where to go yet, but I'd like to
experience Britain and France. And I don't want to spend too much money. Any ideas?
Esperanto 5-26-2014 2:23 pm
I had tour to Britain last year. It's a very nice place. I had a great time there. If you get a
chance, visit Stratford. That's the town where Shakespeare lived.
Yoshi 5-26-2014 2:28 pm
First you should make sure what you want to do there. Each country in Europe has so much to
see. Are you interested in museums and castles? Or do you want to get to know anything
modern?
Cyber Boy 5-262014 3:02 pm
Yoshi-Good question. I'd like to see some museums, but I also want to try some of France's famous food, and a castle would also be great.
Yoshi 5-26-2014 3:21 pm
I think an English-France-Germany trip might work well for you. You can do a little bit of every
thing.That's wonderful.
Esperanto 5-26-2014 3:38 pm
It's easier to say than to do. It will need a lot of money and take time. Cyber Boy isn't so rich.
I think he'd better go in France first this time and he is still able to travel to England or
Germany in the future if possible.
Yoshi 5-26-2014 3:54 pm
Esperanto-That sounds OK. But I'm not sure if he will have another trip to Europe.

On Christmas Eve an English couple received a very special telephone call. It was only a 20-second call but it was very important. The Haydens’ 15-year-old daughter had disappeared six months before. On Christmas Eve she rang them. “I’m phoning to wish a happy Christmas,” she said, “I love you.”
Ronals and Edwine Hayden were so happy that they started a special telephone service called “Alive and Well”. The service helps parents to get in touch with children who have run away from home.
Young people can phone “Alive and Well” and leave a message for their parents. The telephones are answered by answering machines. So no one can speak to the child of making him return home.
Parents of runaway children who are under eighteen can ask the police to bring their children home, so children do not want to tell their parents where they are. Through “Alive and Well” they can telephone their parents without worrying about this or giving out their addresses.
The Haydens and their helpers write down the tape recorded telephone messages and connect the address given. Many of the 30,000 British teenagers who have left home are probably in London. For only two pence they can go into a telephone coin box and call their parents. They can dial (拨) 5675339 and stop a parent’s worry: Is he dead or alive?
4.If you ring “Alive and Well”, .
A．you will get the information you want B．your message will be passed over to your parents
C．the police will bring you home D．your parents will know where you are
5.From the passage, we can know that ________.
A．the Haydens received an “Alive and Well” call before Christmas
B．an “Alive and Well” call usually costs a lot
C．30,000 British teenagers enjoyed the “Alive and Well” service
D．an “Alive and Well” call is very important for worried parents
6.Through “Alive and Well”, parents of runaway children .
A．often fail to persuade their children to return home
B．know nothing from their children
C．can say nothing to their children
D．can ask the police to help them to find lost children
7.What can we know about the Haydens’ daughter from the passage?
A．She died six months ago. B．She had a quarrel with her parents.
C．She worked in “Alive and Well”. D．She ran away from home half a year ago.
C
First made more than 500 years ago, the paintings represent expectations of a prosperous life.
During the Spring Festival, Chinese homes are traditionally decorated with nianhua, or New Year paintings.
Although this folk art has seen its popularity wane（衰退） in modern times, it still survives in some places in China.
In Henan province, the Huaxian woodblock nianhua is named after the place where it's made, Huaxian county in Anyang city. It was first produced more than 500 years ago during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), and it was most popular during the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). In 2008, it was listed as a national intangible（无形的）cultural heritage.
The Huaxian New Year paintings are rich in content. Most paintings are based on historical stories, religious statues, fairy tales and traditional Chinese operas. People hang them on the walls of their rooms, on their front doors or in their kitchens.
Some of the most popular New Year paintings are the so-called Door Gods, which are pasted on front doors to keep ghosts and evil spirits away. The paintings embody people's expectations of a prosperous life in the New Year.
The Huaxian nianhua paintings are handmade. First, the craftsmen draft an image and engrave that image on a block of wood. They then print out the paintings, which are in black and white. The final step is to colorize the paintings. Craftsmen in Huaxian county retain（保持）this traditional production process, which was passed down from their ancestors.

D. The future of Chinese New Year paintings.

When I was about 10, I was walking down the street with my mother. She stopped to speak to Mr. Lee. I knew I could see Mr. Lee anytime around the neighborhood, so I just stood there. After we passed him, my mother stopped and said something unforgettable, "You let that be the last time you ever walk by somebody you know without opening your mouth to speak, because even a dog can wag its tail when it passes you on the street. "That sentence sounds simple but it made me become who I am.
At work, I used to say hello to the president of the company and ask him how our business was doing. But I also spoke to the people in the cafe and people who cleaned the buildings, and asked them how their children were doing, for every single person deserves to be accepted, no matter how humble(低微的)they are. I remember that after a few years of passing by the president, I had the courage to ask him for a chat. We had a great talk. At some point, when I asked him how far he thought I could go in his company, he said that if I wanted to, I could get all the way to his seat.
I've become vice-president, but that hasn't changed how I treat people. I speak to people wherever I am. Speaking to people creates a pathway into their world, and it lets them come into mine, too.The day you speak to someone who has his head down and then see him lift it up and smile, you will realize how powerful it is just to open your mouth and say hello.
12. What is the best title for this passage?
A. The power of being talkative B. My mother's influence on me
C. The power of saying hello D. My way to become vice-president
13. What can we learn from the second paragraph?

B. The writer made a very good impression on the president of the company.
C. The president of the company thought the writer was much better than him.
D. The president of the company actually didn't like the writer at all.
14.For the writer, saying hello to others .
A. is a way to get what he wants B. has become a habit and a way of life
C. is a way to show respect for his mother D. is important in making him remembered
15.According to Paragraph 3, in the writer’s opinion, speaking to others can .

discussion and decided to deal something with it on our own. During the following days, all of us did a good
job. None of us was late for school and we did morning exercise best than ever. In class, we listened to the
teacher attentive. Besides, we won the school basketball match. The day before our class teacher came back,
we gave the classroom thorough sweep to welcome her. Our monitor present
