Good morning everybody! I am very glad to stand here to share my topic.
When preparing for this topic, I just want to search some articles and copy them down. I read a lot of articles, some from the university teachers, some from the famous stars, and even from the students of my age. But after reading them, I gave up the idea, I even felt shameful. Because the topic I want to talk about today is a serious topic full of pride.
We know that our country is full of sunshine, and we are the future of our country. So my dream is to be the hope of our motherland. I don’t want to talk about big events( 大事 ), I just want to call on young people to show the side of courage, good and confidence. We must learn to develop our own thoughts, correct the wrong ones and change our direction to the right side in future life. We should try our best to make our Chinese Dream come true.
Perhaps the strength (力量) of a person is small, but when he is connected with the motherland, he will be a big hero. Perhaps a dream is tiny, but when it becomes the dream of a country, it will be huge. Perhaps I can’t change our country on my own, but if thousands and thousands of young people work for the dream together, our motherland will be stronger and stronger.
I’m looking forward to realizing our Chinese Dream with all of the young people. Thank you for listening. That’s all.
1.What does the writer think of his topic?
A.Funny. B.Serious. C.Shameful. D.Popular.
2.What is the writer's topic probably?
A.Being a big hero in the future. B.Talking about some big events.
C.Correcting the wrong thoughts. D.Working hard for the Chinese Dream.

Chinese fancy knots (中国结), also called Chinese knots, are very important in Chinese culture. They began as a form of traditional art in the Tang and Song Dynasties ( 朝 代 ) in China, and became popular in the Ming Dynasty. Long ago, they found their way to Japan and other Southeast Asian countries, and were well received there. Now they are regarded as one of the symbols of Chinese culture.
As for the name itself, it is surely meaningful. The Chinese word for “knot”, jie, means “connection”. And the pronunciation of the Chinese word jie is very close to that of ji, “good luck”. As a result, Chinese knots are used as a way to express people’s strong wishes for marvellous things like happiness, love and good luck.
The knots are used widely in everyday life. They come in different sizes. Small ones are connected to jewellery (珠宝) , clothes and gifts in order to draw people’ s attention, while large ones are used to make a living room or study more beautiful. Whether large or small, they are named after their shapes and usages. For example, Double Coin Knots are called Shuangqian Jie because they are in the shape of two ancient Chinese coins, meaning “good things come in pairs”. Besides, Chinese knots are famous for their bright colors. Different colors have different traditional cultural meanings. Red means good luck and happiness, green means health, and yellow means wealth.
All in all, the famous Chinese fancy knots fully show the Chinese culture. These brightly colored knots with their endless chains (链条) of knots mean that life on earth will continue forever.
1.What did the writer want to express in this passage?
A.Ask people to buy Chinese fancy knots. B.Introduce a traditional Chinese art form.

阅读短文，并按要求完成文后小题。
Many students have problems with vocabulary when preparing for tests. Here is some advice on how to memorize (记忆) new words. You can build up your English vocabulary with these methods.
Repeated encounters (反复遇见)
The usual way of “memorizing” new words is through repeating them while they’re still in your mind. However, simply repeating a word doesn’t seem to be useful. But the following way is helpful: repeated encounters. Words can be memorized more easily if they’ve been met at least seven times in your reading. So, read English magazines and newspaper from time to time.
Spacing and review
It’s necessary to make a plan of your memory work over a period of time. You’d better memorize words day by day instead of doing it in a single day. That’s why new vocabulary introduced in one lesson is reviewed in the next, and then in later lessons.
Use it or lose it
Putting words to use in interesting ways helps add them to your long-term memory. In a study of vocabulary learning, students who made up their own sentences with new words and read them aloud memorized them better than those who learned the words separately and silently. Besides, you can imagine a picture when memorizing a new word. That can help a lot.
Mix it up
Let’s face it — learning words can be really boring, but it doesn’t have to be. Thanks to the Internet, there are more interesting ways to get the job done. Try watching videos from English-speaking countries and copying the way they speak. You can even upload ( 上 传 ) your own videos and try becoming a star yourself.
1.完成句子You can memorize the words more easily if you meet them________in your reading.
2.完成句子It’s necessary to make a plan of your memory work over________.
3.回答问题What kind of students can memorize the words better?
__________________________________________________________________________________________.
4.找出并写出全文的主题句
__________________________________________________________________________________________.
5.将文中的画线句子翻译成汉语。
