Her visit ，no doubt, would bring about a long list of demands’ and she’d want to bring a friend too. I don t feel comfortable hosting her, but I don 3r know how to tell my husband’s family members without hurting their feelings.
-Reluctant Aunt
Dear Reluctant,
Let’s get you out of this mess. Your husband’s family is making a request that borders on a demand and sugarcoating it with self-serving flattery (恭维）• Put your foot down, and tell the truth.

Will the younger one ever learn to be thoughtful?
-Mindful Mum
Dear Mindful,
Lighten up! Your older stepdaughter is a considerate and generous sister who covers for and protects her younger sister. Good for her! The girls’ relationship is between them.

If you asked high school girls to name their favorite sports, most would probably say basketball or volleyball. I am one of the few girls who would 21 : surfing(冲浪运动). But isn’t that a boy thing? Some people 22 . Most certainly not.
I started surfing about five years ago and 23 in love with the sport on the very first day. Riding the first 24 was the best feeling I had ever experienced.

The one thing I can 31 from surfing and not any other sport is endless challenge. You can never be the “best surfer” because the ocean 32 an too many kinds of waves that nobody can ever master. The variations of surfing styles are wonderful. Some surfers are free and flowing; others are very aggressive(活跃有力的) and 33 . All of these things attract me to surfing and make it 34 from any other sport.
I’ve 35 to tell every girl I know to do something that people don’t think girls can do. It’s part of being human to advance to new 36 , so shouldn’t it be expected that girls should step up and start 37 __the limits of things boys and men used to dominate(主宰)?

Although there are no state controlled survival courses in Britain or the United States, there are various independent organizations offering similar activities.
Students can participate ( take part ) in outdoor training courses through university clubs and societies . Anyone can register ( 登记 ) with such groups , which then organize courses ,training and trips for all members .
One of the most popular outdoor training programmes in both the US and Britain , is Outward Bound ( 户外训练 ) . It was founded in 1941 in Wales and attracts hundreds of thousands of adventurous types every year .
The courses are to broaden minds through experiences that build confidence , self-esteem ( 自尊 ) and character . As well as specialist courses such as canoeing , leadership skills and sailing , participants can take part in week long adventure training camps which include a host of sports and survival training education skills .
Michael Williams , an American student , took part in an Outward Bound course last year . He said : “We learned lots of first aid skills , lots of natural history , lots of environmental facts , and participated in a wildlife preservation ( protecting ) programme . Beyond that , my favorite skills learned were sailing and rock climbing .”
Courses can last up to 40 days and are open to anyone over the age of 14 . Students must be in general good health , but do not need to be experienced in outdoor-sports . There is no selection process ; everyone is welcome , although new participants are advised to pick a course matching their physical power .
Most of the British courses take place in the Beacons in Wales . Another similar organization is the UK Survival School , which includes courses on learning to live with the environment , sailing and winter survival . On a basic survival weekend students will learn how to get water and food , how to make fire and cook with it , to find and build a shelter , control survival life support , how to cross rivers , send off an SOS signal , and to use compasses by day and night .
According to the leaders , such adventures are “an awakening , an exploration into unknown.” Outward Bound believes that participants will “use mind and body traveling some of the earth’s roughest wildness areas .”

A few months before I was born, my Dad met a stranger who was new to our small town. From the beginning, Dad was fascinated with this enchanting newcomer and soon invited him to live with our family. The stranger was quickly accepted and was around to welcome me into the world a few months later.
As I grew up, I never questioned his place in my family. In my young mind, he had a special position. My parents were complementary instructors：Mom taught me the words, and Dad taught me to obey them. But the stranger... He was our storyteller. He would keep us spellbound for hours on end with adventures, mysteries and comedies(喜剧).
If I wanted to know anything about politics，history or science，he always knew the answers about the past, understood the present and even seemed able to predict the future! He made me laugh, and he made me cry. The stranger never stopped talking, but Dad didn"t seem to mind.
I now know that my early concepts about relationship were influenced strongly by the stranger. Time after time, he opposed the values of my parents, yet he was seldom blamed...and NEVER asked to leave.
More than fifty years have passed since the stranger moved in with our family. He has blended(融合) right in but is not nearly as fascinating as he was at first. Still, if you were to walk into my parent"s room today, you would still find him sitting over in his corner, waiting for someone to listen to him talk and watch him draw his pictures. His name?
We just call him...“TV”.
He has a younger sister now. We call her “Computer”.
小题1:When the stranger came to live with our family, he was ________.| A．ignored by the children | | B．driven away for no reason | | C．abandoned because it was too noisy | | D．accepted by every family member |
小题2:The stranger can do all the following things EXCEPT that he can ________.| A．tell us some funny stories | B．reject our proposals(提议) | | C．influence the children"s character | D．predict the future |
小题3:The underlined word “spellbound” in Paragraph 2 most probably means ________.| A．concentrated | B．puzzled | | C．fascinated | D．astonished |
小题4:What can we learn from the last three paragraphs of the passage?| A．The computer is more advanced and has gained greater popularity. | | B．Old as he is，we like the stranger best. | | C．The TV set is out of fashion and often breaks down. | | D．We decide to throw the TV set away immediately. |

How’s it going? Are you busy with your study these days?
I’ve been back at school 1 nearly four weeks. I am very glad to tell you that great 2 have taken place in our school this term. First of all, we’re asked to “clear our plates（餐盘）” when having our meals and say 3 to wasting. Some of us used to order more than what we could eat. That was a big waste of food. Now we need to __4 the food we order. We should also stop wasting in some other ways. For example, we should turn off the lights when we 5 the classroom. And our school has opened up （开辟） some fields for us to learn how to grow vegetables. Each class is given a small garden and our class has decided to grow some tomatoes and beans（豆类）in our 6 time. I think that’ll be very interesting. Maybe I will be able to 7 you some beans we’ve grown by ourselves next time! What’s more, we have only two classes in the afternoon 8 we have more time for after-school activities. I’m one of the traffic safety（交通安全） volunteers in our school. After school, we take turns to go to the streets near school and ask people to __9 the traffic rules.
I think we are having a different school life now!
Please write back soon and tell 10 more about your school.
Yours,
Wang Wei
