Dear Dad,
I am writing this letter to you because it’s too difficult to talk about it. I can’t stop           about my uncle and how he died. In fact, I seriously want to ask you to stop smoking. I’ve looked up      information about smoking and I’ve found out some disturbing(令人不安的) things.
You already know that smoking is bad for your breathing and can cause cancer. I’ve found out      it causes many other illnesses as well. Did you know that over 100,000 people die from smoking every year in Britain? It’s the second        cause of death in the world. I don’t want you to be one of these people.
When Mum       you to smoke outside, you think she’s just being difficult. Well, it’s true that she doesn’t like the smell of smoke in the house and on our clothes. It’s not very pleasant. However, when you smoke, it’s also bad for me and Mum. In other words, when we breathe in your smoke, it’s like we are smoke       . As a result, we can get diseases as well. Doctors are finding that more and more non-smokers are falling ill because of the effects of other people’s smoking.
I know that it is very difficult to stop smoking     you mustn’t give in(屈服) to it. Please see the doctor and ask him for help. We will do anything we can     you. You must try to save your own       . You are important to us and we don’t want to lose you. Who else can I ask to help me      my maths homework or fix my bike? Please don’t smoke!
Your loving daughter,
Kate

举一反三
When I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s,we had a milkman delivering milk to our doorstep. His name was Mr. Basille. He wore a white cap, and drove a white truck. As a five-year-old boy, I couldn’t take my eyes off the coin changer(硬币兑换器) fixed to his belt. He noticed this one day during a delivery, and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.
Of course, he delivered more than milk. There was cheese and eggs and so on. If we needed to change our order, my mother would pen a note, “Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery,” and put it in the box along with the empty bottles. And then, the buttermilk would magically appear.
All of this was about more than convenience. There was a close relationship between families and their milkmen. Mr Basille even had a key to my house, for those times when it was so cold outside that we could box indoors, So that the milk wouldn’t freeze. And I remember Mr Basille from time to time, taking a break at our kitchen table, having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.
There is sadly no home milk delivery today. Big companies allow the production of cheaper milk, so making it difficult for milkmen to compete. Besides, milk is for sale everywhere. And it may just not have been practical to have a delivery service.
Recently, an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories. I took it home and fixed it on the back porch(门廊). Every so often my son’s friends will ask what it is, so I start telling stories of my boyhood, and of the milk man who brought us friendship along with his milk.
小题1:Mr. Basille gave the boy a quarter out of his coin changer______.
A.to please his mother
B.to pay for the delivery

小题2:If they needed to change their order, they should____
A.call the milkman
B.wait for the milk
C.leave a note in the box
D.leave a note on the door
小题3:Why is there no longer milk delivery today?
A.It is not allowed by the law.
B.Its service is getting poor.
C.It has been driven out of the market.
D.Nobody wants to be a milkman now.
小题4:Why did writer bring back home an old milk box?
A.He planted flowers in it.
B.He missed the good old days.

Jack was a big, fine figure of a policeman, and always had a lot of work to do.
One day, he was too busy to have enough lunch and had to keep on working. He walked up and down Market Street, keeping a          eye on things and getting hungrier and hungrier. He passed Tony’s      store. “Would you like to have a banana, Jack?” greeted Tony. But Jack      his head and said, “No, thank you.” He never ate when he was at     . Then he went past another shop that was full of cheeses, cold meats, potato chips, and so on. And when the shopkeeper offered him a pack of sausage, he        again. So it went, all day long.

“You must be hungry, man!” cried his wife, who had prepared well for the dinner, “ Sit at the      and eat!” Jack sat down immediately and began to enjoy the meal.

A sign is another kind of language. Here are some of them that you can see on the roads.

Number One is a sign with the number forty on it. When driver see this sign, they must not go at more than forty kilometers one hour. We see this sign when we are getting near a town. Number Two is a sign that we’re near a crossing. We must drive carefully. Number Three is a sign that there is a bend (弯道) on the road. Again, we must drive slowly and carefully. It is not safe to go round a bend very fast. Number Four is a sign that there is another road coming in from the right. There is a junction(交叉点) at this place.
Number Five is a sign that there is a dangerous mountain road and Number Six is a sign that the road gets narrow. Drivers must go slowly and carefully when they see these signs. Number Seven is a sign that there is a school at the side of the street or the road. Perhaps there are children going to or leaving school. So drivers must look carefully and go slowly. Number Eight is a sign with a letter “P” on it. The letter “P” means “Parking”. At some places, there are signs “NO PARKING” or “NO WAITING”. If a driver leaves his car near one of these signs, a policeman may come and write down the number of his car.

Before I even started school, people felt that I was not going to amount to much. At the age of four, I started speech lessons because even I could not speak well enough to be understood.
First grade was a struggle. I not only had difficulty speaking, but I was expected to learn to read and I just couldn"t do it. My parents grew more and more frustrated. They bought books and offered great rewards if I could read one of them from start to finish to them. Well, with my speech problems and now my reading problems, I did not like to do reading and so refused to do it whenever possible.
Second grade was not much better. It was in the second grade that the teacher decided that I needed special education. I remember the days of taking the physical exams. However, after all that, they decided that I did not qualify for special education.
It was in third grade that a new school was built close to where I lived. I remember going there with my parents and helping to get the school ready so that we could transfer(转学). It was a happy day that we started school at Vandalia. However, things did not get better as my parent expected.
It was now time for fifth grade. Mrs. Wakefield was my teacher, and if ever there was a teacher that deserved a gold star, it was her. She did not make me feel upset. Instead, she helped me in so many ways and built my self-confidence so that I actually did believe that I could do something special. And that is just what I did.
For the past 22 years, I have been a fifth grade teacher. Because of Mrs. Wakefield"s influence in my life, I am now encouraging students who have had difficulties in their lives to believe that they can overcome and become someone. I have won a large number of awards but I know that all of them belong to one fifth grade teacher who believed in me and challenged me to be all that I could be.
I still have a class picture of her with her fifth grade class hanging on the wall of my office, encouraging other teachers to reach out to their students.

小题3:What can we infer from the passage?
A.The writer’s parents believed he could get improved in his speech ability.
B.The new school was not far away from where they lived.
C.The teachers in the new school were gold stars
D.The writer himself wanted to transfer to a new school.
小题4:In which grade did the turning point in writer"s life appear?

Thanks to improvements in both health care and personal safety, most people are living healthier, longer lives. Someone who is born today can expect to live 25 years longer than someone who was born in the 19th century. It"s even thought that in the future more and more people will celebrate their hundredth birthday. Here are five rules for a healthy life.
小题1:
We all know that we shouldn"t run across the road in front of the oncoming traffic, or cycle too close to cars. But we’re not sure about how to stay safe in the countryside. When you"re out walking you should always go with someone. and tell your parents where you"re planning to go. Remember! Climbing may also mean falling-what goes up must come down. Safety rules and advice are there to help you, not to make life less fun.
小题2:
Sure, it"s comfortable to sit on the couch and watch. But experts say you should walk at least 10,000 steps every day to keep fit. In the past, People"s jobs required more physical effort. When farmers were working in the fields, they were keeping fit at the same time. Think about it: do you get the same amount of exercise today as they did in the past?
小题3:
It"s important to eat plenty of the right things, above all, fruit, vegetables, and to see fast food or sweets as something very special- maybe just and then. The wrong diet means you"ll put on weight, one of the fastest ways to an unhealthy life.
小题4:
When we were babies, we slept for much of the day- if our parents were lucky! Teenagers don"t need as much sleep but it"s important to get about eight hours" sleep. At weekends, you"ve got more time, so use it not just for your friends, but for rest, too.
小题5:
Yes, you knew I was going to say this! But it"s so important. More teenagers damage their health through smoking and taking drugs than any other dangers. Think about the effect on your family and friends, and think about its effect on you and your health.
A.Don"t worry. Be happy!
B.Say no ... to smoking and drugs!
