Douglas Grace talks about his ideal city of the future. I see the city of the future in three zones——inner, middle and outer. In the inner zone there will be no private cars. Public transport will be free and there will only be ambulances, fire engines, taxis and police cars. This inner zone will be the residential(住宅的) and recreational(娱乐的) area of the city. People will live there and go out to enjoy themselves——to cinemas and restaurants. There will be parks and open spaces, trees and lakes, schools and universities. This way, when people are at home, they can go out easily and safely. Just outside the inner zone there will be big car parks for all private cars. The banks and most of the shops and hospitals will be in the middle zone. These are things that people don’t need every day. All the factories and offices will be in the outer zone. People will travel out of the center to work, and back to the center in the evenings. The inner zone will be cleaner and better to live in and there will be more space for industry on the outside. This is my ideal city of the future—— a very beautiful place! But I don’t really think things will ever be like that! 小题1:Where will people live and go out to enjoy themselves?A.In the middle zone. | B.In the inner zone. | C.In the outer zone. | D.In the inner and middle zone. | 小题2: Where will big car parks be?A.Just outside the middle zone. | B.Just inside the middle zone. | C.Just outside the inner zone. | D.Just inside the inner zone. | 小题3: What will be in the middle zone?A.The banks,hospitals and schools. | B.The banks,hospitals and police stations. | C.The banks,schools and car parks. | D.The banks,hospital and most of the shops. | 小题4: Where will the factories and offices be?A.In the outer zone. | B.In the middle zone. | C.In the inner zone. | D.In the middle and inner zone. | 小题5: Douglas Grace is probably .A.a painter | B.a builder | C.a town planner | D.a dentist |

Most Chinese people these days know what it is like to have an “English teacher”, since almost all pupils study English from their third year. Usually that first English teacher will be a young and lovely lady in primary school. But my first English teacher is no other than my father. Looking back, I can see that, when I was only a little girl, he created an English environment by providing me with flashcards(识字卡),fun English- language toys and even dolls which can sing English songs! My interest in English had certainly been awakened(唤起) when I began to learn English at school. Just imagine, he went a step further and asked me to learn New Concept English by myself! I was confused and even angry. I could not understand why a father could be so strict with his little girl. All the same, he never gave up and he gently insisted that I follow through with his idea. At first, I read stories with tears and I actually hated them because they were too difficult for me. In the end, I came to love the funny stories and, to be honest, my father was always there with a helping hand. I am sure that my English would never have got so far without his support. And that’s why my father is not only my first English teacher but also my lifelong teacher. He is the one who awoke my interest, who gave me confidence and who offered me much needed help. 小题1:Most pupils in China begin to learn English________.A.in primary school | B.from parents | C.at three years old | D.at home | 小题2:The underline part ‘no other than my father’ in the passage probably means________.A.like my father | B.not my father | C.my father himself | D.not only my father | 小题3:From the whole passage we can see that________.

In spite of the television and other ways to pass information, the newspaper is still an important source. Many people begin their day by reading the paper. In this way they learn what is going on in the world. Sometimes, however, they don’t have time to read the news carefully and must be satisfied with a quick look at the front page, at other times, they may be in such a hurry that they have time only for a glance at headlines. In the United States there are newspapers to satisfy all kinds of readers. In big cities there are many types of papers, with several different editions(版本) every day. In the small towns there are fewer newspapers and perhaps only one edition each day. In some areas the paper is even printed weekly. Another type of publications that help the population know what is happening in the world is magazines. Some magazines are published weekly, others are put out monthly. There are news magazines, and magazines for special interests as sports, photography and music.

In choosing a friend, one should be very careful. A good friend can help you study. You can have fun together and make each other happy. Sometimes you will meet fair weather friends. They will be with you as long as you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away. How do I know when I have found a good friend? I look for certain qualities of character, especially understanding, honesty and reliability (可靠). Above all else, I look for understanding in a friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead, he tries to learn from others. He puts himself in the other person"s place, and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener. At the same time, however, a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults in others. He notices their good points. In short, a friend will try to understand me and accept me. Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on a good friend. If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time, I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a favor, he will do his best to help me. If I am in trouble, he will not run away from me. There is a fourth quality that makes a friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun. We should enjoy our lives, and we would enjoy our friendship. That is why I especially like friends who are fun to be with. A good friend likes the same things I like. We share experience (经验) and learn from each other. A good friend has a good sense of humor, too. He likes to laugh with me. That is how we share in the joy of being friends.
