A
Emily Urich 18 years old Canada
A 1ot of teens aren’t responsible, and that’s where I’m different. Not just about school but everyday things, like being able to pay my own credit card(信用卡)bills on time.
The first time I got a cartoon book was on my third birthday. From then on, I fell in deep love with it. And can you guess how many cartoon books I’ve read? I don’t really know the exact number. But I have three full boxes of them under my bed.
Joe Miller 16 years old America
I’m proud of doing things in my own way. So whenever somebody wants me to do something or whatever it is, I feel like they’re all other people’s thoughts, not really mine. But like others, I love reading, too.
When I first took skiing lessons, I found it exciting. For skiing racing, there’s no question that I’m better than most boys. I think it’s fun. I mean, it is a challenge. It’s where I picked up the idea of needing a challenge always in my life. In order to improve my skiing skills, I have read many books and magazines about it.
An Qi 15 years old China
I’m different because I prefer to drop out of the world to create my own world. I’d like to build a house on a mountain. And I choose to live without electricity, a telephone, or even indoor plumbing(水管裝置).
I have many hobbies such as traveling, reading, writing and spending time with children. I love children because they are smart and creative. They always have many strange ideas. It makes me excited.
I want to do something for Hope Project and become a country school teacher.
11. Which hobby do the three students all have?
A. Writing. B. Skiing. C. Traveling. D. Reading.

If you think you have two left feet but would love to be a good dancer then why not tryyour hand at dancing?
That’s exactly what I did five years ago and I immediately fell in love with dancing. Tome, dancing is a magical experience: I’ve become fitter, look younger and feel more confident.I enjoy it so much that I will never give up this healthy pastime.
It’s very sociable as well. You meet people and make new friends while dancing the nightaway. Haven’t you heard stories about how dancing inspired new romances or rekindled(重燃)old ones? My friends Joe and Rena just had their big day a few weeks ago after they met eachother at a Ceroc workshop some three years before.
The word “Ceroc” comes from the French language. Without the complicated footwork, itis easier to pick up by beginners. Another good thing about Ceroc is that while it is a partnerdance, you don’t have to bring a dancing partner.
Other popular styles of dancing in the UK include ballroom, belly dancing, lindy hop,salsa, tango and tap dancing, just to name a few.
No matter what types of dancing you do, one thing is for sure: you will become fitter. Foroffice workers like me, dancing is good cardio exercise after a long day sitting in front of thecomputer screen. It also strengthens your muscles, improves your coordination(協(xié)調(diào)) andincreases your physical confidence.
Few people will end up being queens of the dance floor. The aim is not to win acompetition but to enjoy the interaction(交流). As long as you do the right moves, keep therhythm and most importantly keep an encouraging smile to your dancing partners, you willalways be a winner!
15. What do we know about the writer?
A. He has 2 left feet and dance with hands.
B. He learns magic while dancing.
C. He becomes younger after dancing.
D. He shows a keen interest in dancing.

A. It’s a dance organization. B. It’s a dance starting from France.
C. It’s a dance suitable for beginners. D. It’s a popular ballroom dance.
18. What is the main purpose of this passage?
A. To introduce some types of dance to the readers.
B. To prove the benefits of dancing to the readers.
C. To indicate the importance of dancing in social relationship.
D. To show the connection between dancing and health.
C
If you do not use your arm or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.
If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame(受責備), and few of us know that it is just his own fault.
Have you ever found that some people can’t read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories, so their memory is the whole time being exercised. Therefore, if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practice remembering.
19. The main reason why one has poor memory is that ________.
A. his father or mother may have a poor memory
B. He does not use his arms or legs for some time
C. his memory is not often used
D. he can’t read or write
20. Which of the following is NOT true?
A. Your memory works in the same way as your arms or legs.
B. Your memory, like your arms or legs, becomes weak if you don’t give it enough chance for practice.
C. Don’t learn how to read and write if you want to have a better memory.
D. A good memory comes from more practice.
21. Which is the best title for this passage?
A. Don’t Stop Using your Arms or Legs
B. How to Have a Good Memory
C. Strong Arms and Good Memories
D. Learn from the People
D
When I lived in Spain, some Spanish friends of mine decided to visit England by car. Before they left, they asked me for advice about how to find accommodation (住所). I suggested that they should stay at “bed and breakfast” houses, because this kind of accommodation gives a foreign visitor a good chance to speak English with the family. My friends listened to my advice, but they came back with some funny stories.
“We didn’t stay at bed and breakfast houses,” they said, “because we found that most families were away on holiday.”
I thought this was strange. Finally I understood what had happened. My friends spoke little English, and they thought ‘VACANCIES’ meant ‘holidays’, because the Spanish word for ‘holidays’ is ‘vacaciones’. So they did not go to houses where the sign(標牌) outside said ‘VACANCIES’, which in English means there are free rooms. Then my friends went to houses where the sign said ‘NO VACANCIES’, because they thought this meant the people who owned the house were not away on holiday. But they found that these houses were all full. As a result, they stayed at hotels!
We laughed about this and about the mistakes my friends made in reading other signs. In Spanish, the word ‘DIVERSION’ means fun. In English, it means that workmen are repairing the road, and that you must take a different road. When my friends saw the word ‘DIVERSION’ on a road sign, they thought they were going to have fun. Instead, the road ended in a large hole.
English people have problems too when they learn foreign languages. Once in Paris when someone offered me some more coffee, I said ‘Thank you’ in French. I meant that I would like some more. However, to my surprise, the coffee pot was taken away! Later I found out that ‘Thank you’ in French means ‘No, thank you.’
22. The author’s Spanish friends wanted advice about ______.
A. learning English B. finding places to stay in England
C. driving their car on English roads D. going to England by car
23. The author suggested that they stay at bed and breakfast houses because ______.
A. they would be able to practise their English
B. it would be much cheaper than staying in hotels
C. it would be convenient for them to have dinner
D. there would be no problem about finding accommodation there
24. If you see a road sign that says ‘Diversion’, you will ______.
A. fall into a hole
B. have a lot of fun and enjoy yourself
C. find that the road is blocked by crowds of people
D. have to take a different road
25. When someone offered the author more coffee and she said ‘Thank you’ in French, she ______.
A. didn’t really want any more coffee
B. wanted them to take the coffee pot away
C. really wanted some more coffee
D. wanted to express her politeness

Dear Dave,
In your last letter, you asked me about the Spring Festival. As is known to all, it has been enjoying great popularity in our country.
Falling on the first day of the first lunar month, the Spring Festival is considered to be the most important traditional festival to us Chinese people. Usually, no matter how far away or how busy we are, we will try to come home for the celebration. On the eve of the Spring Festival, all the family members get together, making dumplings and having a feast. In many places,people have great fun in setting off fireworks. During the festival, people pay a visit to their relatives or friends. In addition to these traditional activities, people have a new tendency to celebrate it such as travelling and sending best wishes through Wechat.
Hopefully, you will come to China to experience it.
Yours,
Li Hua

閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的4個選項(A、B、C和D)中，選出最佳選項。
A
I have dreamed of taking a trip to Hawaii since I graduated, but the best thing always needs waiting. I took a trip with my friends to Haleakala National Park, which lies in Hawaii.
When we arrived at Haleakala National Park, we were advised to watch the early morning sunrise. I was lost in the sightseeing that afternoon, so I could hardly wait to meet the sunrise. In the next morning, we all jumped out of the bed very early at 3 o’clock and walked to the rocks by the seaside. In the first half an hour, we imagined how wonderful it would be when the first light came out through the thick clouds and how soft it would be when the light touched our skin, so we waited and waited. However, another half an hour later, I gradually lost my patience since there was nothing but the chilly darkness, and I felt that I was frozen to death. But my friends were still extremely cheerful.[
Nearly another one hour later, “Amazing!”, a word yelled out from Judy and we all shouted to welcome the light orange greatness, which is really unbelievable. Until today, I dare say that it is the most impressive(印象深刻的) sunrise in my life. However, waiting in the morning darkness is also the one I can not wipe out forever.
Waiting sometimes is really a hard thing for most of us as it needs patience and strong-willed determination, but what about the result after that? It might turn out to be pleasant, unbelievable and satisfactory. So, it is really worthwhile to wait for the best.
21、When did they see the first light of the sunrise?
A、About 3 o’clock. B、About 4 o’clock.
C、Nearly 5 o’clock. D、Nearly 6 o’clock.
22、What can we learn from the passage?
A、My classmates and I took a trip to Hawaii.
B、Hawaii is a good place to enjoy the sunset.
C、I took a trip to Hawaii before I graduated.
D、Sometimes, it is worthwhile to wait for the best.
23、What’s the meaning of the underlined word in paragraph two?
A、total. B、terrible. C、cold. D、interesting.
B
An earthquake is one of the most common natural calamities(災難). It may cause great damage. So it is wise to learn some simple safety tips to protect yourself or your family members.
Fragile items, like those made of glass are easily broken and should usually be placed on a lower surface, near the ground instead of placing them on cupboards higher up. Never place them near your bed, sofas and other furniture where you would be sitting or lying down. When there is a strong movement, these pieces will fall on the floor directly and not on you.
There is a strong chanc e of short circuits (短路) and fire breakouts during an earthquake. Make sure you turn off electrical connections and gas immediately when an earthquake happens.
During an earthquake, lie beneath an object that is not easily damaged. Do not go near objects that could directly fall on you. Never use the elevator to go down. Stay inside until the shaking stops and it is safe to go outside. Research has shown that most injuries happen when people inside buildings try to go out. Use the staircases at all times.
If you are outdoors, do not take shelter under a tree, streetlights, electric poles or tall buildings. If you are driving, stop your car and stay in a safe place. Do not park your car under a tree or any tall object.
If trapped in debris (瓦礫堆), cover your mouth with a handkerchief or clothing. Tap on a pipe or wall so rescuers can find you. Use a whistle (哨子) if one is available. Never shout for help. Shouting can cause you to breathe in dangerous amounts of dust. Do not light a match because you may burn yourself. Do not move about or kick up dust.
24、During the earthquake, people are advised to _____.
A、go out of the building at once B、drive to a safe place quickly
C、take shelter under a tree D、turn off electricity and gas immediately
25、What should people NOT do when they are trapped in debris?
A、Tap on a pipe or wall for help. B、Cover their mouths with handkerchiefs.
C、Light a match for help. D、Use a whistle for help.
26、The passage is mainly about _____.
A、the damage caused by earthquakes B、the rescue work after earthquakes
C、how to prevent earthquakes D、what to do during earthquakes
C
Grandma Moses is among the most famous twentieth-century painters of the United States, yet she did not start painting until she was in her late seventies. As she once said of herself: "I would never sit back in a rocking chair, waiting for someone to help me." No one could have had a more productive old age.
She was born on a farm in New York State, one of five boys and five girls. At twelve she left home and was in domestic (家庭的) service until, at twenty-seven, she married Thomas Moses, the hired hand of one of her employers. They farmed most of their lives, first in Virginia and then in New York State, at Eagle Bridge. She had ten children, of whom five survived; her husband died in 1927.
Grandma Moses painted a little as a child and made embroidery (刺繡) pictures as a hobby, but only changed to oils in old age because her hands had become too stiff (硬的) to sew and she wanted to keep busy and pass the time. Her pictures were first sold at a local market and were soon noticed by a businessman who bought everything she painted. Three of the pictures were exhibited in the Museum of Modern Art, and in 1940 she had her first exhibition in New York. Between the 1930s and her death she produced some 2,000 pictures: detailed and lively portrayals (描繪) of the country life she had known for so long, with a wonderful sense of colour and form. "I think really hard till I think of something really pretty, and then I paint it." she said.
27、From Grandma Moses' description of herself in the first paragraph, it can be
inferred that she was _____.
A、pretty B、independent C、rich D、nervous
28、Grandma Moses spent most of her life _________.
A、nursing B、farming C、painting D、embroidering
29、According to the passage, Grandma Moses began to paint because she wanted to _____.
A、keep active B、become famous
C、earn more money D、make herself beautiful
30、Which of the following wou ld be the best title for the passage?
A、Grandma Moses: Her Life and Pictures.
B、The Children of Grandma Moses.
C、Grandma Moses: Her Best Exhibition.
D、Grandma Moses and Other Older Artists.

There is also something that you can do to change this situation. Firstly, help your classmates when they are in trouble. Then, try to invite some of your classmates to take part in some activities together after school, which will help you understand each other better. Finally, in my opinion, often communicate with your classmates about your life and study.
I believe you will make many new friends and have a happy school life there.
Yours truly,

Good evening, everyone, and thank you for listening to News Channel Five. Our report tonight is about the new zoo that opened last week in our city. Our reporters went down there yesterday to look at the place, and it is amazing! There are different areas of the zoo with special animal exhibits. The water area has many beautiful fish and some penguins. The land area has tigers, lions, elephants, and even two giraffes! The jungle area holds many different types of monkeys and birds. It’s huge. But don’t worry, you won’t get lost. There are maps everywhere that tell you where to go. There is a food area with places to eat lunch for only $10 a person. There are also some stores in which you can buy souvenirs. It costs $25 a ticket to get into the zoo, but it’s definitely worth the money. Bring your children or your friends, or just go by yourself tomorrow!

When I came to Cincinnati as an au pair (家庭打工留學生), a lot of things there were different from what I knew. My host family lived in a huge house I could only describe as a "castle".In Germany I had lived in a small apartment together with my mom. Soon I found out that the "castle" was actually rather small in our neighborhood.
Everybody there was very friendly and polite. They greeted you when they were walking by at least 3 feet away from you. They must not have seen a German au pair before, for most people I met asked me all kinds of questions about Germany. I enjoyed answering their various strange questions. I made a lot of friends and I started to hang out with them.
Of course, there were a number of new things, and it took me the whole year to find them all out. I never got homesick. Perhaps it was because I did not have too many negative experiences and felt loved and welcomed there.
However, I had undergone some painful experience back in Germany. I was frustrated by the way people would run me over and not even say "Sorry." Taking up my studies at the TU-Dresden, I felt lonely. Everybody here seemed to be withdrawn(離群的) and I missed everything I had in Cincinnati. Germany was so "cold". I found it so much harder to make new friends. After six months I got a roommate and only two good friends. I also flew back to Cincinnati several times for long periods. I felt that without those visits I was not able to make it.
Now I am over this German culture shock. It almost took me an entire year. I am still going back and forward between Dresden and Cincinnati four times a year.

World Book Day is a celebration of all things wonderful about books for all ages, with author events, school fancy-dress parades and a ￡1 book token(購書券)given to all school children under 18. It is a yearly event on
23rd April, organized by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization ( UNESCO ) to promote reading.
In the United Kingdom, the day is recognized on the first Thursday in March. On 3rd March 2016 children of all ages in the UK will come together to appreciate reading. Sometimes, reading a modern novel can be tough ( Booker Prize winner The Luminaries runs to 832 pages! ), especially if reading is not your strong suit. In fact, one in six people in the UK never pick up a book because they’ve experienced difficulties or are out of the habit of reading for pleasure.
The Galaxy Quick Reads series are designed to introduce reluctant readers to bestselling short funny novels, which bring the joy of reading without demanding hours of concentrated time. They cover a range of subjects, from romance to comedy.
Jojo Moyes’s Paris For One is a romantic adventure in which 26-year-old Nell books a weekend away to Paris with her lazy, neglectful boyfriend. When he fails to turn up, she is alone in the city. That is, until she meets Fabien, who shows her the charms of the French capital -- in more ways than one.
Adele Geras’s moving story Out In The Dark was set in World War I, in which young Rob came back from the battlefields. Determined to find the officer’s widow to return the photo of her and their daughter that the captain kept with him, he traveled several thousand miles but never gave up.
Dead Man Talking is a fantastic tale of Pat, who had a terrible fight with his best friend, Joe, ten years ago -- but now hears that Joe is dead, and he must attend his funeral. But Joe is not going quietly that very night -- he’s lying in his coffin being very chatty indeed.
28.What is the main aim of the World Book Day?
A. To promote book selling. B. To encourage reading.
C. To win authors fame. D. To perfect education.
29.If you lack confidence in your reading skills, you will probably avoid reading _____.
A. The Luminaries B. Paris For One
C. Dead Man Talking D. Out In The Dark
30.What else do you expect the author to introduce?
A. A romance. B. A comedy. C. A horror story. D. A moving story.
31.According to the passage, which of the following statements is TURE ?
A. The Luminaries tells a story of a Booker Prize winner.
B. Paris For One tells a story of Nell and Fabien.
C. Out In The Dark is a story during World WarⅡ.
D. Dead Man Talking is a story of Pat and his talkative friend.

Simply put, language is what people and animals use to communicate their thoughts, ideas and feelings. Of course, animals communicate with each other differently from humans, and each type of animal communicates differently. For example, a bee uses a dance to tell the rest of the bees in the hive (蜂窩) where there is food, while whales communicate through the use of pleasant-sounding sounds. One could say then, that animals use different languages.
Like animals, people also use different languages. Each culture has its own words and symbols that are used by people within that culture to communicate with others in the same culture. For example, a person living in Japan will use the Japanese language to communicate with other Japanese. Unlike animals though, some cultures use more than one language. People within these cultures are said to be either bilingual (雙語的) or multilingual (多語的). One such place is Canada. It is very likely that a person living in Canada may speak both French and English. Likewise, a person living in Switzerland may speak Italian, German and French.
Not only do people use different languages to communicate, but languages also have different dialects. A dialect is a difference of a language which uses words and grammar somewhat differently from the standard form of the same language. For example, people who live in Manchester, England speak a dialect that is a little different from people who live in London, England; however, people in both cities speak English.
There are also some people who don’t use a spoken language at all. These people use their hands to communicate. This type of language is called sign language and is most commonly used by people who are deaf.
Now that we know how people communicate, we are faced with a question. Are we part of a certain culture because of the language we speak, or do we speak a particular language because we are part of that culture? To put it more simply, is a Chinese person Chinese because he speaks Chinese, or does he speak Chinese because he was born in China? What part does language play in the definition (定義) of culture?
32. The examples of bees and whales are used to show ______.
A. animal languages are simple to learn
B. people can understand animal languages
C. different animals use different languages
D. animals communicate with each other
33. The main idea of the second paragraph is that ______.
A. people communicate with those in the same culture
B. there can be different languages in the same culture
C. a culture can be expressed in several languages
D. the symbol of a culture is the language spoken by its people
34. To judge whether a person speaks a dialect, you can depend on ______.
A. what words and grammar he uses
B. whether he uses sign language
C. where he lives
D. who he communicates with
35.What would be the best title for the passage?
A. The culture of different countries B. The language in different cultures
C. The development of language D. The meaning of the language

Do you know how to deal with failure at school? Four steps will help you get the most out of each failure and more on.
36 When you feel bad after failing, talk with your parents or good friends, or any other adult. Then decide to take the duty to improve yourself. Read the teachers’ comments on your test carefully.
Ask yourself what you were trying to do and why you failed. 37 Maybe you didn’t have all the information you needed; maybe you made a mistake or a poor decision. If so, give yourself a pat on the back. Fewer people ever get something right the first time they try it, and often it takes them many times. 38 Sometimes the failure isn’t because of something you did or didn’t do; it is someone else’s fault. But don’t spend time blaming them; instead, move on toward your goals.
39 . Review the situation to see what your choices are. There is a difference between making a decision and giving up. Deciding to follow a better way is one thing; simply walking away means you really have failed.
Keep trying again. Successful people are different because they choose their next steps instead of just reacting to feelings. If a goal is still important to you, figure out what to do and go after it again. 40 .
A. No pains, no gains.
B. Don’t give up easily.
C. Failure is unavoidable.
D. Remove your bad feelings.
E. If it isn’t, do your best on something else.
F. In fact, it was because you were very lazy.
G. Usually it was because you were trying out a new skill or learning a new subject.

Possible version:
I’m writing to tell you something about my trip to America. This summer I am to attend an English summer camp for Sino¬US cultural exchanges, which I have long been dreaming about.
This program is aimed at promoting the understanding of the people and culture between the two countries. During the two ¬week English summer camp, we will visit some famous American universities, experience American culture and customs, and tour places of interest in the US. Furthermore, we will also be offered a platform to practise our spoken English in an authentic language environment.
I’m sure that this program will help me better understand the cultural difference，which will definitely be a great success.
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
