Mark Twain was a great writer. He was from the USA. He was born in 1835. He was also a famous speaker. He was famous for his sense of humour. Many people liked to listen to him talk because he liked to tell some interesting stories to make people laugh all the time.
One day Mark Twain was going to a small town because of his writing. Before he was going to leave, one of his friends said to him that there were always a lot of mosquitoes in the town and told him that he’d better not go there. Mark Twain waved (摇动) his hand and said, “It doesn’t matter. The mosquitoes are no relatives of mine. I don’t think they will come to visit me.”
After he arrived at the town, Mark Twain stayed in a small hotel near the station. He went into his room, but when he was just about to have a rest, quite a few mosquitoes flew about him. The waiters felt very sorry about that. “I’m very sorry, Mr Mark Twain. There are too many mosquitoes in our town.” One of them said to him.
Mark Twain, however, made a joke, saying to the waiter, “The mosquitoes are very clever. They know my room number. They didn’t come into the wrong room.” What he said made all the people present laugh heartily.
But that night Mark Twain slept well. Do you know why? That was because all the waiters in the hotel were driving the mosquitoes away for him during the whole night.
25. That day Mark Twain went to the town _____. A. to see one of his friends.

Think of life as a game in which you are playing with five balls in the air. You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit (精神) and you keep all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce (弹跳) back.
But the other four balls, family, health, friends and spirit, are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be broken. They will never be the same. You must understand that and try to have balance in your life. How?
Don’t look down on your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different and each of us is special.
Don’t let other people set goal for you. Only you know what is best for yourself.
Don’t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying. Don’t be afraid of difficulties. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
Don’t shut love out of your life by saying it’s impossible. The quickest way to receive love is to give it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly (紧紧地); the best way to keep love is to give it wings（翅膀).
Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve
been, but also where you are going.
Don’t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is a treasure you can always carry easily.
Don’t use time or words carelessly. You can’t get them back. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift; that’s why we call it “the present”. Life is not a competition, but a trip, step by step. 29．. The underlined sentence “Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.” means that _______.

30． Why can’t we use time carelessly? ___________

C. Because we are too poor. D. Because time is too expensive.
31．. If you run through life so fast, you will ____________. A. lose your own treasure that you can always carry easily B. lose love by holding it too tightly
C. forget not only where you’ve been, but also where you are going D. not be afraid of the difficulties
32． According to the passage, which is the best title? ___________ A. Nothing is impossible. way.
C. Things you can’t do. broken.
D
People in the United States honor their parents with two special days: Mother’s Day, on the second Sunday in May, and Father’s Day, on the third Sunday in June. These days are set aside to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens. They give love and care. These two days offer an opportunity to think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers. More mothers now work outside the home. More fathers must help with child-care.
These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On Mother’s Day people wear carnations. A red one symbolizes a living mother .A white one shows that the mother is dead. Many people attend religious services to honor parents .It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery（公墓）. On these days families get together at home, as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecues for Father’s Day. These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.
Another tradition is to give cards and gifts. Children make them in school. Many people make their own presents. These are valued more than the ones bought in stores. It is not the value of the gift that is important, but it is “the thought that counts”. Greeting card stores, florists, candy makers, bakeries and telephone companies do a lot of business
B. Treat your life in a right
D. Glass balls are easy to be
during these holidays.
33．Which is NOT a reason for children to show love and respect for parents?
A. Parents bring up children.
B. Parents give love and care to children. C. Parents educate children to be good persons. D. Parents pass away before children grow up. 34． What do you know from the passage?
A. Mother’s Day and Father’s Day are both in May. B. Fewer women worked outside the home in the past. C. Not all the children respect their parents. D. Fathers are not as important as mothers at home. 35． Which do you think is right about “carnation”? A. It only has two kinds of color.
B. It refers to the special clothes people wear on Mother’s Day or Father’s Day.
C. It’s a kind of flower showing love and best wishes.
D. People can wear carnations only on the second Sunday in May.

great love from the birds.

She noticed the other bird moving back and forth on the edge of the cage. She could feel his great need for freedom. He needed to fly into the clear, blue sky. 39 The bird circled once, twice, three times. The girl watched delightedly at the bird’s enjoyment. 40 She wanted the bird to be happy. Suddenly the bird flew closer and landed softly on her shoulder. It sang the sweetest songs that she had ever heard.

I’m very glad to receive your letter today. How are you getting along with your study?
In your letter, you asked me whether you should buy a mobile phone or not. In my opinion, it is unnecessary for a student. Why? First, using a mobile phone takes up too much time to send or receive short messages. Therefore the time that you should spend on studies becomes less. Second, it is forbidden to use mobile phones at school because sometimes you have to answer the call in class. If so, your behavior can disturb others. Third, you may be disturbed by some false short messages. Furthermore, you’ll have to ask your parents for more money because of the phone expense.
In short, I suggest that you consider my words twice. Best wishes.
Your friend, Li Hua
