hotel by the sea. All day, I seem to remember. I played on the sands with strange exciting children. We make
sandcastles with huge yellow walls, and watched the incoming tide destroy them; we splashed each other in
the water and shrieked with excitement. When the tide went out, we climbed over the slippery rocks and
stared down at the fish and the seaweed in the rock-pools.
In those far-off days the sun seemed to shine constantly and the water was always warm. Sometimes we
left the beach and walked in the country, exploring ruined houses and dark woods and climbing trees that
overhung streams. There were always sweets in one"s pockets or convenient places where one could buy ice-
creams. Each day seemed a life-time.
Although I am now an adult, my idea of a good holiday is much the same as it was. I still like the sun and
the warm sand and the sound of waves breaking on the beach. I no longer wish to build sandcastles and I
dislike sweets instantly, but I look forward to sitting down to a good meal and a bottle of wine in the evening.
I think, too, that I prefer spending my holiday abroad. I want to smell different smells; I want to see
different kinds of trees, flowers and birds; and I also want to see people with different colored skins, wearing
different kinds of clothes. Above all, I want to hear a different language spoken and listen to different musical
rhythms from those I am used to.
But I still need my companions-not, of course, to play on the sands and eat ices with, but to drink with and
talk to on warm moonlit nights.
Sometimes I wonder what my perfect holiday will be when I am old. All I shall want to do then, I expect,
will be to lie in bed, reading books about children who make sandcastles with huge yellow walls, who watch
the incoming tide, who make themselves sick on too many ices…
B. On the beach.
C. In the mountains.
D. On the sea.
B. swam
C. struggled
D. surfed
B. to spend his holiday sunbathing
C. to chat with someone
D. to experience a foreign culture
B. he will lie in bed without worrying about anything
C. he will bring back wonderful childhood memories from a book
D. he will make sandcastles with his children

Happiness is the way." There is no use 1.______ (say) "Some day 2.______ I achieve these goals, get this

for certain things 3.______ (happen) and depend on life to make you happy, you will always feel unfulfilled.
4.______ will always be something missing. Long-term happiness is based 5.______ honesty, self-esteem,

together and make each other happy. Sometimes you will meet fair weather friends. They will be with you
as long as you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away. How do I know when I
have found a good friend? I look for certain qualities of character, especially understanding, honesty and
reliability (可靠).
Above all else, I look for understanding in a friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person
is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead, he tries to learn from others. He puts himself in the other person"s
place, and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener.
At the same time, however, a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults (过错) in others. He
notices their good points. In short, a friend will try to understand me and accept me.
Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on a good friend. If he tells me he will meet
me somewhere at a certain time, I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a favor, he will do his best to
help me. If I am in trouble, he will not run away from me.
There is a fourth quality that makes a friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have
fun. We should enjoy our lives, and we would enjoy our friendship. That is why I especially like friends who
are fun to be with. A good friend likes the same things I like. We share experience and learn from each other.
A good friend has a good sense of humor, too. He likes to laugh with me. That is how we share in the joy of
being friends. And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me.
When I meet someone who is reliable, honest, understanding and humorous, I know I"ve found a friend!
1. The writer thinks a good friend should be _________, ____________, ___________, and ___________.
2. What is the meaning for fair weather friends? (用浅显易懂的英语来解释)
________________________________________________________________________.
3. Write down a title for this short passage.
________________________________________________________________________.
again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age
gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.
Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult. If a child has good parents,
he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be
given so much without having to do anything in return. What"s more, life is always giving new things to the
child-things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well known. But a child has his
pains: he is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is repeatedly being told not to do something, or being
punished for what he has wrongly done.
When a young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his
clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing
about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used
to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If, however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and
has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society.
B. a child is always loved whatever he does
C. if much is given to a child, he must do something in return
D. only children are interested in life
B. young men can have the greatest happiness if they work hard
C. childhood is the most enjoyable time in one"s life
D. one is the happiest if he can make good use of each age in his life
B. how to build up one"s position in society
C. joys and pains of old people
D. what to do when one has problems in life
More than half of its 100,000 residents rely on aid from the government. Only 50% of students at Bushwick
High School graduate in four years.
Some people might say, "We should help these poor kids who have so many challenges." But Malaak
Compton-Rock looks at the teens in Bushwick and says, "Go to help kids who have even bigger challenges
than you do." She believes that once young people see the power they have to make things better, they can
handle their own problems more easily. So her service group, the Angel Rock Project, took 30 Bushwick
kids to Soweto, in South Africa, to help poor families there. Soweto is a township outside the city of
Johannesburg. The effort, called Journey for Change, aims to show that any kid can change the world.
"Kids in Bushwick face pressure to drop out of school or become involved in gangs and drugs." Says
Compton-Rock. "We want them to live a life of purpose and service."
In Soweto, many parents have died of AIDS, a deadly disease. When that happens, a grandparent or a
child must lead the family. The Bushwick volunteers helped such families. They tended vegetable gardens,
cared for babies and bought groceries.
"The saddest thing was when we visited an orphanage (孤儿院) and I helped a little boy who had been
abandoned because he had HIV, the virus that causes AIDS," says Queen Clyde, 12. "It"s been good to be
on this trip. But what"s also important is what we do when it"s finished. That"s what counts." " I never
appreciated what I had until I saw some people who had nothing," says Sadara Lewis, 12 "It"s really changed
my attitude. I want to make a difference."
The trip was two weeks long. But the kids, aged 12 to 15, will spend all year speaking about their
experience, fund-raising and more.
B. Bushwick still needs more care from the government.
C. It is children who suffer most in New York City.
D. Children in Bushwick are living in a bad situation.
B. should be kept out of schools
C. can learn to deal with their own problems by helping others
D. are living much better than people in Africa
B. receive no care from the government
C. are much more independent
D. are able to lead the family
B. saying and doing are two things
C. one stone kills two birds
D. a friend in need is a friend indeed
B. the trip to Soweto will have a long influence in spite of its short time
C. most children are suffering from AIDS in Soweto
D. kids with HIV will be abandoned in Soweto
中词语的正确形式填空。
It is hard work rather than luck that brings people success. Those who 1______ (consider) to be successful
must have been working hard 2______ (achieve) their goal and their success can also benefit others.
Some people argue that one can not succeed 3______ he works very hard. There are many examples to
show that success comes from hard work. One example is 4______ Madam Curie had been working all day
and all night 5______ she made the great discovery of radium.
Other people think that luck and opportunity are 6______ (importance) than hard work. They argue that
even if one works hard, he can not succeed 7______ luck and opportunity. For instance, 8______ film star,
Zhang Ziyi, could never be famous if she was not given a chance to play a role in the film.
I think that 9______ hard work and good luck are important. If one wants to be successful, he has to work
hard on one hand and he has to seize the opportunity and luck on the 10______. These two factors are essential
for one"s success.
