“Keep your eyes on your own paper" is one of the rules that Mrs. Archer has taught us. It is a simple rule, but it's not a rule everybody chooses to follow.

This morning. I had an experience with a "rule breaker”during an English exam. I felt somebody was watching me a little too closely.I turned my head quickly and saw James. who sat right behind me. My eyes caught his and he said in a low voice. “I hope you studied for this test!” I gave him a smile, not sure whether he was joking or not, and returned to my test. This time I leaned (倾身) a little more closely towards my paper,“I can't see!" James said.“What am I going to do?"I thought to myself. Cheating (欺骗) went against my beliefs. I curled my arm around my answers.

“He's your friend, and what are friends for?"

“You know it's wrong."

I tapped(轻敲) the top of my desk, hoping for an easy way out of this matter. No easy answer came. I just knew I had to do what I felt was right, even if it made James mad. So I guarded my paper so that he couldn't see my answers.

When the exam ended, I stood there for a moment, searching for the right words to say to James. "Sorry, James, but you know me well enough to understand how I feel about cheating.”I said slowly and softly.“But maybe I could help you study before the next test"“OK, Brian,”he smiled.“It might not be easy, but I'll give it a try."

I felt happy that my friendship with James hadn't been destroyed (破坏).Mrs. Archer would be proud.

59. Who was the “rule breaker"?

A.Mrs. Archer. B.James. C.Brian. D. A boy on the left.

60. Who said the two underlined sentences and in what way?

A. Brian, silently in his mind. B. James, in a low voice.

C.Mrs. Archer, slowly and softly. D. Brian and James, to each other.

61. Why did the writer think Mrs. Archer would be proud?

A.Because he and James helped each other in the exam.

B. Because both he and James did very well in the exam.

C. Because he didn't let James copy his answers in the exam.

D. Because he followed the rule and kept friendship with Janes.

These days, more and more Chinese people enjoy sending and receiving messages on the phone. It can help them to get the latest news and communicate with friends. But I think I should read more books besides the textbooks, the more, the better. It can open my eyes and improve my language skills. Of course, it also can help me get good grades. Do you know how to read more and learn more? Here are some tips for you.

•Clear your purpose for reading

Before you start reading, ask yourself why you are reading this book? Most people read for two main reasons, pleasure or knowledge. Clearing about your reading purpose can not only help you choose the books you really need to read, but also remind you why reading the book is important to you, so you will keep reading and complete the book faster.

•Read only what you are interested in

No matter what you are reading, it is important to enjoy what you read. Your friends may tell you the books they love, but those books might not necessarily be the ones you enjoy.

•Give up books that you don't enjoy

You may have chosen books that you are interested in, and they are right to your purpose. But while you are reading them, there may still be some books that you don't enjoy reading. Whenever you realize that you aren't enjoying the book you are reading, give it up. Remember reading shouldn't be a chore.

•Set a reading goal

It is interesting that I read the books borrowed from libraries faster than those I bought. The reason is the books I bought don't have a due date! I don't need to return those books. Having a reading goal helps you work out how much reading you need to do in a week or even a day. Before you read each book, ask yourself what time you need to complete this book by.

62.Why do most people read books?

A. To get the latest news and communicate with friends.

B. For pleasure or knowledge.

C.To open their eyes and improve their language skills.

D.To get good grades.

63. What should you do when you find the book which you are reading is boring?

Our class had a discussion last month, the topic is is food part of the holidays? Let's see what my classmates said.

Liao: I think there is a really close connection (联系) between festivals and food. My dad is a businessman. He travels on business a lot. He even has to travel during holidays, like Mid-Autumn Festival. But he once told me that as long as he can eat my mom's homemade moon cakes, he can feel like he's at home with us.

Zhang: Eating moon cakes during Mid-Autumn Festival drives me crazy! I really don't like the taste of moon cakes, but Mom forces (强迫) me to eat them every year. But as I eat more moon cakes, I start to hate the holiday! This holiday should be held to celebrate some special person or event, not a food. I don't want this tasteless food to ruin (毁坏) my holiday anymore.

Chen: In my opinion, eating traditional food during holidays is part of our culture. I remember one time during Lantern (灯笼) Festival, my parents were too busy to bring home any sweet dumplings. Although we still lit up our rabbit lantern that night, I still felt like the festival was not complete, since we didn't have any dumplings.

Yuan: In the past, people would usually save precious (珍贵的) food for special days. But now, we can eat it whenever we want. I don't think it is important to eat traditional food during holidays anymore. We can still do some other things to celebrate, such as watching the moon during Mid-Autumn Festival or remembering Qu Yuan during Dragon Boat Festival.

49. Chen thinks ____________

A.traditional food is tasteless

B. holidays aren't complete without traditional food

D.traditional food means little to us these days

C. connection between festivals and food

Mike was walking his dog, Paul, when the dog had to go. It was garbage day, looking around but seeing no public garbage bins (公共垃圾桶)，so Mike put the bag of dog poop(狗保) into someone else's bin. When Mike turned around, the irritated person who owned the bin was shouting at him." Hey! This isn't your garbage bin. You can't put the bag in here!" Mike quickly walked away to stop things from getting worse. As he walked toward home, he kept thinking, "Was I in the wrong?" Then Mike posted his story online, and lots of people replied.

Mike said about 80 percent were OK with others using their garbage bins for bags of dog poop. Some would allow it anytime. Others would like the bags to be put in before the garage was picked up, so the bin wouldn't smell.for days on end. The 20 percent, who didn't allow others to use their bins for dog poop, said that people had incorrectly used their bins.

"Having a dog and being a dog owner had something to do with it," Mike said. Mike has a good idea of working this out. "If you can have a piece of paper that says, "Yes, you can put your dogs poop bags in my bin,'I think we can find the answer to the problem,” Mike says.

For years I went to school by bus，so I met many “familiar” strangers．We took the same bus but didn’t know each other’s names．I used to think it was impossible for us to be true friends．How wrong I was！Smiles from the “nameless” people have changed my thoughts．

The first time I got on the bus，I saw different faces．We met，greeted and cold faces turned into smiling faces．As days went on，we chatted like old friends．

But I felt it a pity that I was unable to set up the same friendship with a silent girl in the front of the bus．Her old clothing suggested that she didn’t have much money，but she always took a cup of water for the driver．I guessed she was a kind girl．But why did she sit in silence instead of talking with us？Why did she never reply to our friendly greetings？Couldn’t she smile？

Then，one evening，I got the answer．I walked to the park nearby and found the girl sitting alone under a tree，lonely and sad．I greeted her with the same warm smile that I had shown to her all these months，but this time her face turned red，then a shy smile appeared．As soon as she began her first words，I understood why she hadn’t spoken to us before．Talking was hard for her．

I learnt her story：Her parents worked hard somewhere．She lived with her disabled grandparents．She said，“I can’t express myself very well． Most of the time，I can’t say what I want to say．I have no friends but…you always smile to me like an angel…so I also want to smile．”That evening，we exchanged our names and we said goodbye like old friends．

Smile is the key to opening the door of the heart；it can break the cold walls in front of us．

I'm Jenny. I'm a movie lover and I want my kids to like movies, too. The first time I took my daughter, May, to the movie theater, she was 6 and the movie was Bambi. I chose it because I thought a cartoon movie would be good to her.

Everything was going just fine and Bambi was so lovely. However, when a man killed Bambi's mother, my daughter became very sad and asked to go home. So we left in the middle of the movie. Later I chose movies more carefully and my daughter watched many great ones. Luckily, she likes movies as much as I do now.

My worry is: Are Cartoons really safe (安全的) for kids?

Once I sat on the sofa to watch a cartoon with my 8-year-old son, Nick, I got dumbfounded when I saw a cartoon character was bleeding (流血) in front of us. The cartoon was like an action movie for adults (成人).

History is one of my favourite subjects. I learn history in different ways. History class in the United States is different from that in China.

At Chinese middle school, my history textbook is thin.It has only about 100 pages. We listen to the teacher, take notes and do exercises after school. We do not have to know much about the background(背景) of the historical events(历史事件).

In short(简而言之), we learn mainly by listening in class.

However, in the U.S. I have a heavy,thick textbook. It has more than1,000 pages. We have reading tasks(任务) before each class. We need to answer a few questions after the reading.

In class, we discuss a lot. The ideas come from the teachers, and also come from the students. Sometimes, we have more activities like debates(辩论). They are exciting. They encourage us to have our own thinking.

In fact, both ways work well. Which do you like?

( ) 57. What do the students do before each history class in the U.S?

B. They read and answer some questions.

C. They have debates. D. They take notes.

( ) 58. What is the writer’s idea about the history class in the U.S?
