Jean is a bright young woman who comes from a rich and famous family. She goes to a good university and has everything that money can buy. Well, almost everything. The problem is that Jean’s family are so busy that they can hardly find time to be with her. In fact, Jean is quite lonely. So Jean spends a lot of time on her QQ. She likes being anonymous, talking to people who do not know about her famous family and her rich life. She uses the name Linda on QQ and has made a lot of friends who she keeps in touch with quite often.
Last year Jean made a very special friend on QQ. His name was David and lived in San Francisco. David was full of stories and jokes. He and Jean had a common interest in rock music and modern dance. So it always took them hours to talk happily on QQ and sometimes they even forgot their time. Of course, they wanted to know more about each other. David sent a picture of himself: He was a tall , good looking young man with big , happy smile. As time went by, they became good friends and often sent cards and small things to each other.
When Jean’s father told her that he was going on a business trip to San Francisco, she asked him to let her go with him so that she could give David a surprise for his birthday. She would take him the latest DVD of their favorite rock singer. But when she knocked on David’s door in San Francisco, she found that her special friend was a twelve-year-old boy named Jim!

Should We Make Friends on QQ ?
高二英语书面表达简单题查看答案及解析
Once there was a young woman who didn’t like her job. Everyday when she came home from work, she told her husband how terrible her day had been, how tiring the work and how unreasonable her boss. “Leave that job,” her husband told her.
“Oh, I will,” she said. “But not yet. I have too many friends there for me to leave.” And so she remained unhappy at work until the years became decades and her children had children. “Leave that job,” her grandchildren told her. “Oh, I will,” she said. “But not yet. There are only seven more years until I reach thirty years of service and can retire. So I can’t just yet.”
I know this woman. And her story reminds me of an old dog half asleep on the porch of a general store, moaning and groaning in the sun. “Why is your dog acting that way?” a customer asked the store owner. “Oh,” answered the man. “He’s lying on a nail.” “Well, why doesn’t he move?” “Because it’s not hurting him bad enough.”
That’s true for people, too. We convince ourselves the pain is not bad enough to leave the workplace we know. But we’re wrong. Prolonged work pain is continuing. Some work pain damages our self-esteem, kills our passion or destroys our dreams.
Wilbur Wright once commented, “We could hardly wait to get up in the morning. I know that exhilarating feeling of being so passionate about something I was working on that I couldn’t wait to get back to work. And people who are winning at working know that kind of passion, too.”
They get excited about work. They offer their unique gifts and talents eagerly. And when things don’t change as they sometimes will, they refuse to let environment hijack(劫持) their self-esteem, passion or dreams.

Many years ago, I read online of a woman who sold a lifetime of possessions and moved from the west coast of America to Hawaii with one suitcase. Apparently she had never regretted that ____ to simplify her life, and she had never been ____. I remember wondering a lot about that story. I just couldn’t ____ how she could be happy without her things. What was it like waking every morning to a near ____ room, I wondered.
Years after _____ that article, I found myself at a crossroad in life. I had to sell all my possessions, _____ what I could fit into two suitcases. I was very worried about losing things that I had previously decided were as ____ to my existence as the air I breathe. ____ I knew this was the right thing to do at that time, I still felt a bit ____ about who I would be without all my stuff. Then I remembered that woman who had found happiness in Hawaii after radically (彻底地) downsizing her ____. At that moment I decided to ____ her lead. I told myself that parting with all my stuff was a time of ____ and self-discovery.
Life went on as usual. Better than usual, ____! I very quickly began to notice I felt ____ and freer than I had in a long time. And, ____, I felt at peace and ____. In the absence of anything else in my room, I began to notice the ____ of light and shadow, and the subtle (微妙的) variations in each hour of the day.
Over time I’ve come to see the benefit of ____ living. I’ve discovered the less stuff I have, the more ____ is my relationship with the things I have.
