I attended a birthday party in 1991. My teacher was then 59 years old. But her fellow teacher said that we were celebrating her 39th birthday! We were all surprised and puzzled.
After the party I was told by the fellow teacher that American women have a special saying about birthdays. If a woman is over 40, or even if she is 80, her birthday is always the 39th. If she is in her thirties, her birthday will be the 29th. And in her twenties, it’s the 19th. They usually have their “real” birthday when they are below 20.
This shows that American women, especially elderly women, are very sensitive(敏感的) about their ages. But my teacher always says, “We want to be younger,” so about the age of Western women, my advice is that if you don’t know it, don’t ask about it; if you really know it, don’t mention it.
1. The writer felt the birthday party he attended was ___________.
A. very interesting B．very strange C．very common D．very sensitive
2.The writer must be from______________.
A．Western countries B．Eastern countries
C．China D．the United States
3.In order to please an old Western woman , you can say to her,“____________”
A．You are so old that you shouldn’t do that.
B．How old are you?
C．You look so young and beautiful.
D．Can I help you, granny?
4.The writer wants to tell us__________________.
A. that a Western woman always celebrates her 39th birthday
B. not to ask a Western woman’s age whether you know her well or not
C. to ask a Western woman’s age freely
D. not to attend an old Western woman’s birthday party

We are all busy talking about and using the Internet, but how many of us know the history of the Internet?
Many people are surprised when they find that the Internet was set up in the 1960s. At that time, computers were large and expensive. Computer networks didn’t work well. If one computer in the network broke down, then the whole network stopped. So a new network system had to be set up. It should be good enough to be used by many different computers. If part of the network was not working, information could be sent through another part. In this way, computer network system would keep on working all the time.
At first the Internet was only used by the government, but in the early 1970s, universities, hospitals and banks were allowed to use it, too. However, computers were still very expensive and the Internet was difficult to use. By the start of the 1990s, computers had become cheaper and easier to use. Scientists had also developed software that made “surfing” the Internet more convenient.
Today it is easy to get on-line and it is said that millions of people use the Internet every day. Sending e-mail is more and more popular among students.
The Internet has now become one of the most important parts of people’s life.
1.The Internet has a history of about____________ years.
A．70 B．10 C．50 D．20
2. A new network system was set up to_____________.

C. break down the whole network.
D. make computers large and expensive.

A. the government. B. scientists C. hospitals and banks D. schools
4.Which of the following is TRUE?
A．In the 1960s, computer networks worked well.

“Little lies” sometimes come to easily to us that we don’t even consider them to be lies. Read about these lies of everyday life:
1. Lying about your age or your kid’s age to get a cheaper ticket.
2. Telling the host of a dinner party that the terrible food he prepared is wonderful.
3. Lying to your aunt about how much you love the gift she gave you---the one that you really hate.
4. Telling a friend with a terrible haircut that she looks great.
5. Lying to a friend about how much you want to see her again when you really don’t
6. Telling the salesperson who calls when you’re watching TV that you’re very busy.
Are these serious lies? Probably not, but if you would lie about your age to a stranger, what’s going to stop you from lying about something more serious later? If we tell a lie or act dishonestly and get what we want, that might make us feel good today. But what about tomorrow? The future results of our lies are uncertain.
Still, no one is saying that everyone can or should be completely honest all the time. More people lie, often for a good reason. Lies are told all the time and are part of our everyday social life. Many times people lie to protect the feelings of other people, and there’s nothing wrong with that. Honesty is usually the best policy, but like any other policy, you have to make exceptions.
1.The author tries to persuade the readers to accept his argument by___________.
A. making suggestions. B. explaining reasons and results.
C. providing examples and facts. D. discussing questions.
2.The author’s attitude towards little lies is that_________.
A. he feels very fond of them. B. he feels they are necessary sometimes.
C. he feels strongly against telling little lies. D. he feels ashamed of telling little lies.
3.According to the text, which of the following is TRUE?
A. Some people are born liars. B. People often lie to avoid hurting others.
C. Some people can be honest all the time. D. Little lies are not serious things.

Being a winner
1.________Everyone wants to succeed in their career or life. Sometimes it is easy to get carried away with the eagerness to win and forget about the things in everyday life which are important. 2.________Education is the tool to succeeding in life and a person’s greatest accomplishments(成就) start with good education. School will prepare you for your toughest challenges and learning as much as you can will only make those challenges easier to face.
3.________Families are quite often a person’s biggest asset(财产) when facing a difficult obstacle(障碍). Support from a person’s family can help him or her accomplish anything. It is equally important for you to give your parents and family support when they face their challenges. You can learn from the challenges and accomplishments of others and at the same time know that your support made a difference in the outcome of a difficult obstacle.
4.But always remember that being a winner is more than coming in first place in a tournament(锦标赛). The most important accomplishments are those that occur in everyday life. 5.________
A. Being a winner is important to all of us.
B. Your efforts will pay off sooner or later.
C. Children need to work hard to be a winner in school.
D. Being a winner is something that we all work hard for in life.
E. It is also important to be a winner to your parents and family.
F. It is important to know how to win support from your family or friends

Dear Ken,
I'm very exciting to have received an e-mail from you and I'm glad you had a
wonderfully time during the past summer holiday. Last summer I take a trip to the
countryside with some of my friend. Country life, in my opinion, gave me peace
and quiet, which is what I can't enjoy in big cities. There was river nearby, in that
we went swimming every now and then. You can never imagine what fun it
was to swimming together with friends in the cool, clean river on such hot days.
In fact , I had never been had a better holiday before . I took plenty photos there
and I keep them where I can see them every day as they always reminds me of
my stay in the country.
Yours,
Li Ping
