My name is Jake. I’m brown, and rather short, standing just a little past my master’s knees. My friend Andy once took me to a dog show. I’ve never seen so many different-looking dogs in my life! They all looked pretty and handsome, and their masters were very proud of them when they jumped and ran across so many barriers at that dog show. Andy promised that he’d let me join a dog show, too, if the organizers opened a division for my “breed”.

  While I was watching that show, I remembered my friends at the pound(走失猫狗的待领处), where I spent two long weeks. We were kept in cages, and although we were well-fed, every day during those two weeks, I hoped to have someone touch my head and play with me.

  You could just imagine how glad I was when, one day, Andy came in with his dad and pointed in my direction. I stood up on my hind legs and did a little jig (一种快步舞), and then I wagged my tail and tried to chase it. The father and his son kept laughing at what I was trying to do, and in a few minutes, I was riding on their car on the way to my new home. I was Mr. Archer’s gift for Andy’s eighth birthday. I heard him shout that I was the best gift ever!

  My favorite amusement is hanging my tongue out of the car window and letting the wind blow on my face. I just love long drives! It is during these times that I think of all my friends whom I left behind at the dog pound. I hope that soon, little boys or girls would also pick them and give them new homes, so they would be able to enjoy walks in the park and trips to the beach, as I do now.

1.Why didn’t Jake join the dog show?

A. Because he wasn’t handsome enough.

B. Because his “breed” was not included.

C. Because Andy didn’t allow him to join in.

D. Because he couldn’t jump and run across barriers.

2.What can we learn about Jake when he was at the pound?

A. He couldn’t get enough food.    B. He couldn’t enjoy full freedom.

C. He had to stand all the time.    D. He was satisfied with his life.

3.Why did Mr. Archer come to the pound that day?

A. To donate some food.    B. To volunteer at the pound

C. To find his son a gift.    D. To spend his holiday

4.According to the last paragraph, what wish does Jake have?

A. Having more long drives with Andy.

B. Meeting his friends at the pound again.

C. More boys and girls coming to play with him.

D. His friends at the pound being adopted.

5.What did Jake feel after it got a new home?

A. happy    B. terrible    C. dissatisfactory    D. blue

My name is Kenn Nesbitt and I’m a poet. I started writing poems as a hobby in 1994. At the time, I never gave any thought to publishing them; I just wrote for my own amusement. But it was so much fun that I ended up writing a lot of poems, which led me to the idea of creating a website, and at last writing books. If you want to write poems, I have some advice for you.

  My ideas mostly come from my imagination. That is, I like to sit and daydream, and see what kinds of crazy things I can think up. For kids, I suggest that whenever you think of an idea, you should write it down, even if you don’t have time write them to create a whole poem from your idea. I have notebooks full of ideas that I haven’t written poems about yet. So I can always look through my notebooks and find something fun to write about.

  One way to make poems interesting is to write about things readers can understand: school, family, food, pets, games, sports, and so on. To make a poem funny, I often ask myself, “What kinds of funny things might happen at school, or over dinner? What funny things might your pets do?” and it’s OK to make things up, such as having a pet elephant, or a pet that plays video games. Use your imagination and see where it leads. But the best advice I can give kids is not to just write one poem, it might be a great one, or maybe not so good. But if you write ten poems, you’ll probably find that, even though they aren’t all perfect, a few of them are much better than the others.

1.Why did the author start writing poems at first?

A. To publish them.    B. To entertain himself.

C. To contribute to a website.    D. To kill time.

2.What’s the main idea of Paragraph 2?

A. How to write poems.    B. How to think up crazy things.

C. How to get ideas for poems.    D. How to become creative.

3.According to the author, what is the best advice he can give us?

A. Just write great poems.    B. Write as many as possible.

C. Make poems as funny as possible.    D. Try to make things up in your poems.

4.Where does the author come from?

A. America    B. China    C. Germany    D. not mentioned

5.What’s the author’s purpose of writing the text?

A. To suggest some poems written by him.

B. To show writing poems isn’t that hard.

C. To tell readers how to write poems.

D. To explain how he writes poems.

There are times when a friendship has to go through huge tests. It is a battle between staying together and moving away from each other. 1.More often than not, it is pride that destroys a friendship.

Relax your pride. This is easy to say, but very difficult to do. You may ask yourself, “Why should I say sorry when he does not show any regret for what he has done?”

2.If you find yourself saying any of these things, you should understand that it is your pride talking. Allowing your pride to control your feelings will leave you bitter and confused.

Talk about the problem. Face the problem calmly. 3. it may sound silly, but it could certainly heal the wounds that you have caused each other. If you avoid facing the problem, your pain will only grow. Remember, you want to keep the friendship and not worsen the problem.

Laugh about it. 4. After some time, when both of you have become calm and renewed your confidence in each other, go back to the time when you had nearly fallen apart. Laugh about your foolishness, and promise to never let pride take over your friendship.

Friendship is a valuable thing. 5.Rapport(融洽的关系)is what creates a friendship. Love, understanding, acceptance and forgiveness are what lead to a long-lasting friendship.

“Do you really want to eat that?” “Slow down. I’m worried about your healthy.” These were just a few of the much comments I received my parents. These and other comments made me find a personally trainer. The comments also made me feel terrible about my figure, what in turn caused unhealthy behavior included secret eating. Now, at 24 years old, I weigh 240 pound and I’m still getting those same comments from my family, despite a fact that I’ve asked them to stop. Such comments are really annoyed. I do hope that all parents will stop to saying such things to their children.
