Dear Sir，
Thank you for invite me to the summer English course in your school.As for your choice between the two courses, I prefer the fourweek course because of this will allow me more time to do some traveling but make a few new friends.Of all the subject I’m learning at school, I like English best.I had been learning English for eleven years but my spoken English remains poorly.So I really hope to take this chance improve it.If possible, I’d like to stay with a family for a couple of days in order that I can know some customs in England, that I’m particularly interested in.I believe I will have wonderful time this summer.
The first time I saw Suzy Khan, I knew I had to help her. She was really small for her age of 12. The boys in my class often ______ about her and laughed their heads off. She would open a book, pretending to read, with tears dropping on the open page.
All I knew was that she was an orphan (孤儿) from Africa. She had just been adopted by a family in town who ______ that the best way for her to learn American ways of life was to be with American kids. I looked down at this ______ girl and promised myself that somehow I would help her. But how could I help her ______ in with us? There had to be a ______.
One day, when I went into the classroom, I saw that Suzy had ______ her geography book to a picture of a train, and in her notebook, she had made a(n) ______ copy.
I was surprised and thought that she could do something in the coming ______ show. So, I took her to see the art teacher, Miss Parker, and showed her what Suzy had ______. “Why, it’s wonderful，” said Miss Parker, who then showed us a poster she had painted ______ the talent show. “I need more of these, but I just don’t have enough ______. Could you help me, Suzy？”
On the day of the talent show, Suzy’s ______ were everywhere — all over the hall and all over the school, each one different.
“And finally，” said Mr. Brown, the schoolmaster, at the end of the show, “we have a (n) ______ award. I’m sure you’ve all noticed the wonderful posters.” Everyone nodded. “One of our own students ______ them.”
I could hear everyone whispering. “Who in our school could draw ______ well？”
Mr. Brown waited a while before saying, “______ this student worked so hard on the posters, she deserves a ______，too. Our mystery (神秘) artist is our new student — Suzy Khan！”
Mr. Brown thanked her for all the wonderful posters and gave her a professional artist’s set. “Thank you，” she cried.
I ______， at that time when I was looking at her excited face, she’d probably never ______ anything in her whole life.
Everyone started to ______ their hands. Suzy Khan gave them a shy smile and the applause was deafening. I knew then Suzy was going to be all right.

Is there anything more important than health? I don’t think so.“ 1. ” wise people say.You can’t be good at your studies or work well when you are ill.If you have a headache, toothache, backache, earache or bad pain in the stomach, if you complain of a bad cough, if you run a high temperature and have a bad cold, or if you suffer from high or low blood pressure, 2. The doctor will examine your throat, feel your pulse, test your blood pressure, take your temperature, sound your heart and lungs, test your eyes, check your teeth or have your chest Xrayed.After that he will advise some treatment, or some medicine. 3. Speaking about doctor’s advice, I can’t help telling you a funny story.
An old gentleman came to see the doctor.The man was very ill.He told the doctor about his weakness, memory loss and serious problems with his heart and lungs.The doctor examined him and said there was no medicine for his disease.He told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest.He also advised him to eat a lot of meat, drink two glasses of red wine every day and take long walks. 4.“Eat at pleasure, drink with measure and enjoy life as it is.” The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again, he should not smoke more than one cigarette a day.
5. He looked cheerful and happy.He thanked the doctor and said that he had never felt a healthier man.“But you know, doctor，” he said, “it’s not easy to begin smoking at my age.”

Born in Australia without arms or legs, 30yearold Nick Vujicic has become an international symbol of victory.His life has been filled with one hurdle after the next.But you’ll hear no selfpity from Vujicic, whose book, Unstoppable, was published last month. “My limbless challenge remains.I cannot change that，”says Vujicic, who counts skydiving and surfing among his hobbies.“But what I can, and did change is my attitude.”
It is Vujicic’s spirit that has made him a sellout speaker, traveling the world to share his story.Describing low points in his life, including a suicide attempt at age 10 and a failing business in his 20s, he says the “three Fs” are what got him through：friends, family and faith.“I can honestly say, the fear of being alone during the most difficult times in my life was worse than living without arms and legs ... Hard times make you humble (卑微)．You realize that you do need people to help you when you are not able to do it all yourself.”
A few years ago, confronted with the increasing business debt, Vujicic says he nearly gave up to selfdestructive thoughts. But he set small goals: Get out of bed, eat breakfast, leave the house.Those small successes built his confidence to move forward to the next level.“There is nothing about failure that is easy，” he says.“But it is also true that our failures in life teach us to embrace every small victory. Success is that much sweeter when you have struggled to reach it.”
Family and friends are a safety net，including wife Kanae who is expecting their first child.“My parents always taught me, ’You don’t know what you are able to do until you try’” he recalls.“The first time you fail at anything is painful.But you have a decision：Do you give up or do you try again？”
1.Which of the following is TRUE of Nick?
A. He succeeds in motivating others greatly.
B. He believes he can do anything all by himself.
C. He dislikes telling his low points to the audience.
D. He thinks supportive relationships are unnecessary.
2.What’s Nick’s secret when he meets with troubles?
A. Attempting suicide.
B. Struggling to escape.
C. Setting small goals.
D. Pretending to succeed.
3.What does the text mainly talk about?
A. Parental love.
B. Failures in life.
C. A book titled Unstoppable.
D. Attitude towards life.
Should we allow modern buildings to be built next to older buildings in a historic area of a city? In order to answer this question, we must first examine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area. Not all historical buildings are attractive. However, there may be other reasons for example, economic (经济的) reasons — why they should be preserved. So, let us assume that historical buildings are both attractive and important to the majority of people. What should we do then if a new building is needed?
In my view, new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style. Indeed, there are many examples in my own home town of Tours where modern designs have been placed very successfully next to old buildings. As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not dominate (影响) its surroundings too much, it often improves the attractiveness of the area.
It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt (破坏) the area they are in, but the same can be said of some old buildings too. Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas. I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative (保守的) and do not like change.
Although we have to respect people’s feelings as fellow users of the buildings, I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to move_things_forward. If we always reproduced what was there before, we would all still be living in caves. Thus, I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different, even though that might be the more risky choice.

A. Some of them are not attractive.
B. Most of them ate too expensive to preserve.
C. They are more pleasing than modern buildings.
D. They have nothing to do with the historic feel of an area.
2.What is the author’s attitude towards building new buildings in historic areas?
A. Negative. B. Indifference.
C. Object. D. Support.
3.By “move things forward” in the last paragraph, the author probably means “________”．
A. destroy old buildings
B. put things in a different place
C. choose new architectural styles
D. respect people’s feelings for historical buildings
4.What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To explain why people dislike change.
B. To warn that we could end up living in caves.
C. To admit how new buildings have ruined their surroundings.
