Here are five letters from readers listed in 1-5. All the greetings and signatures are left out. Suppose you are a secretary of the magazine CR (Crazy English Reader), for each one find a suitable reply from A-F. Mark the correct letter (A-F) on your answer sheet. There is one extra reply which you don’t need to use.
51. I am a reader of CR. Recently I found students translate some articles of CR. I appreciate your offering an opportunity to us beginners to practice using English. So I want to ask how they can obtain these articles and translated them for you, and what qualities you require. Thank you.
52. I love your Crazy English Reader magazine! It provides valuable data for work in our English teaching. My wife and I are teaching Conversational English so I’ve been giving you a bit of a plug at our middle school. I told the students to “get a copy!” It’s good stuff! Fantastic!
53. I’m one of Yao’s fans from Guangzhou. I have read the Yao Ming articles in No.7 Crazy English Reader. I want to know his correspondence address and the official website. Could you please tell me? Thank you very much indeed.
54. First of all, I must say thank you very much to all the CE Reader editors who gave us a really good English magazine. Secondly, I want to give you a piece of advice. In each passage, you gave us some new words with their Chinese translation. However, as far as my knowledge, I think you should give us not only the Chinese meaning but also the English meaning so as to know the words more accurately. Thank you!
55. I am an editor of the English Monthly of our school. I have a question that is how to say the position of the paper e.g. and so on. I hope you can help me to tell me the word in English. The more the better. Thank you so much! I love the book very much. Now, I do this work, I need study more information about this work, if you have time, please email me. Thank you.

A．Thank you for your suggestion. We may try that in some future issues of CR. I think the best way to improve your reading vocabulary is to be able to guess the meaning of the word from the other words around it. Also, if you have an English dictionary, it’s good to look up the words and then mark them down in a notebook and review them later on. Then if you really want to learn how to use the words, try using them in conversation or in writing. Hope this helps.

B．The best way for you to learn the different positions in a newspaper or magazine is to get a copy of an all-English magazine or newspaper and then copy down the different positions. There are also titles such as Managing Editor, reporter, Copy Editor, Photo Editor and Layout Editor. I hope this helps. If you have some more specific questions, you can send them to me and I’ll try to answer.

C．The best way to reach Yao directly is through his home team, the Shanghai Sharks. You can write him at 2570 Xietu Road, Shanghai. For more information on Yao, you can look at the sports section in sina. com. I hope this helps. Another idea is that you can try to write Yao while he’s living and playing in Houston. You can try to reach Yao in the US at: Yao Ming Compaq Centre 10 Houston, TX 77046

D．Thank you for being such a careful reader of CR. Yes, you’re right we made a mistake in the writing of that Chinese word. Each issue we try to read very carefully each article and its translation to make sure there are no mistakes, but unfortunately a few mistakes always get by. But you encourage us to keep improving, so thank you.

E． Yes, we do have several students who help us translate some of the articles in our magazine. We contact these translators directly after interviewing their translation work. Afterwards we assign the articles to them for translation. If you are interested in being one of our translators you can send us some information about yourself and a sample of your translation work.
F．  Thank you for helping us to promote CR. We’re glad it’s helpful to your students. We always try to include articles that reflect real life. It’s our hope that CR will not only improve student’s English but also open up a different worldview.

第二节：阅读下面短文，第61至65题表述了Anna、Smith、Wilkins、Crick和June在自己的生活及学习中遇到的问题，他们需要你的帮助，请从A、B、C、D、E和F中为其选出最合适的建议，并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。
61．Anna: I get really frustrated easily, and sometimes I end up yelling at people I love．I'm not very sure why it happens, but I have no control over it．How can I stop?
62．Smith: Some kids are making fun of me because I'm doing very well at school．Isn't that something to be proud of? I need advice．
63．Wilkins: I can't sociaize．I am really shy, and I am already a freshman in high school. I have some new friends, but I am still shy to the cool kids．Can you help me, please?
64．Crick: I always say what I feel immediately and without thinking．Sometimes I get in trouble for it or feel sorry about it later．Is speaking your mind a good or a bad thing?
65．June: I love to read! But I don't have any time to read because of all of my activities．I don’t want to quit anything．What should I do?
A
Instead of feeling upset, you should definitely be proud of yourself．Intelligence is a quality that everyone wants, and as you get older it's going to be what people love and respect about you．Still water runs deep．I'm sure as time goes by, some of those kids making fun of you might realize how cool you actually are．
B
Everyone has to leam how to adapt to society and mix socially with others．No man is an island, as the saying goes．To become a sociable person, you must be naturally friendly．Besides, do something for a social situation．A teacher once gave me this great advice: Prepare a conversation in your head before going into an uncomfortable social situation．It sounds like a lot of work, but it's easy and it works! Get involved in activities that interest you and you will make new friends fast．
C
Always keep a book with you so that you can read during pockets of free time．Turn some of your TV or computer time into reading time．Read for a little while right before bed, and find time to read on weekends．Also, talk to your parents about your schedule．You might not want to quit anything, but you might need to find more free time in order to have a happy balance in your life．
D
That feeling is your conscience, and it's telling you that you need to confess what you did．Be brave and tell your parents．Even if they get upset when they hear about it from you, they would be even more upset to hear about it from your friend's mom．So pick a quiet time and say．Mom, Dad, I need to tell you something, but I'm afraid．Then spill the beans．No matter what they say, you'll be relieved not to have this secret any more．
E
First, identify what is frustrating you, then learn to calm yourself down．The next time you start feeling frustrated, stop what you're doing and breathe deeply．Count to ten．Get up and walk around．Clear your mind before you come back to the frustrating task．If you keep a cool head, you'll be less likely to snap at others．And if you do yell at someone, apologize and admit that it's not that person's fault．Then calm down and try again．
F
Speaking your mind can be a really good thing．Far too many people don't, except when talking about someone behind that person's back．However, there are times when honesty does more than good like when a girl asks if she looks fat．So in situations in which there's no real good, you are better off keeping your thoughts to yourself．In situations in which that is not the case like when your brother asks if his breath stinks feel free to tell the truth．Just be prepared to take it in return．

How to prepare a lecture
Being invited to give a lecture is an honor．It means that people regard you as an authority on a given field, subject, or issue．It means you are worth listening to．  You have to make sure your lecture is interesting, and full of wisdom, from which the audience can take valuable insights．This is why it is important for you to prepare your lecture well．
1．Think of a good topic．
You most likely will be assigned to talk about a certain topic．If that's the case, you only need to make an outline and do some research．But in some cases, you will have to think of your own topic．Although it gives you more freedom to do it, thinking of a topic can be tricky．   Or pick a topic that is timely and socially relevant．
2．Make an outline for the lecture．
Start by listing down the points that you will discuss, and then fill in each point with subpoints．If necessary, make a research about your topic． But if in so doing you end up with a very long outline, figure how you can shorten the topic or cut where cutting is needed．
3． 
Statistics, figures, medical information, historical accounts, and similar information should all be checked and it will save your credibility as an authority on the subject you are talking about．
4．Add humor．
Don't engage your audience in a dragging soliloquy （独白）．  Humor will interest your audience．Of course, make sure the elements in your lecture are in line with your main topic and are not nonsense, racial, and offensive jokes．

A．Check your lecture for accuracy．

B．Giving a lecture is challenging, though．

C．If necessary, provide your contact information, such as an email address or blog site．

D．Instead, make your audience smile, or burst into laughter at certain points in your discussion．

E．To make it easier, consider what will interest your audience．
F．It should summarize your whole talk in one sentence．
G．Don't be afraid of exploring the topic, as this will allow you to discover other points that need discussion．

根据短文内容，从下框的A~F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。选项中有一项为多余项。

A. When a child should learn to read B. Why it is fun to teach a child reading C. What if a child has reading problems D. How you prepare a young child for reading E. What is the best way to teach a child reading F. Whether reading early promises later achievements

       
Learning to read early has become one of those indicators — in parents' minds at least – that their child is smart. In fact, reading early has very little to do with whether a child is successful academically. Research has shown that difficulty with reading is often due not to inferior intelligence but to differences in the developmental wiring of each individual child. In some cases, there are neurological problems and developmental lags that can be overcome with proper training.
_______________.
Traditionally, American schools teach children at age six, but many schools begin teaching informally in kindergarten and pre-kindergarten. If parents start too early to encourage reading, and a child does not immediately succeed, the parent has a hard time relaxing and letting the child go at his or her own pace.
_____________________
Over the years, research has proved that the use of both the “whole language" method and the "phonic" method works best for a child to master reading. While the whole language approach, which includes reading to children and getting them interested in both the activity of reading and the story they are reading, is helpful, phonics must be taught. Children must be taught that one of the squiggles they see is a "p" and another a "b". Getting the print off the page requires a different ability than being able to understand the meaning of what is written.
___________________
You can start developing the skills needed in reading at a very young age without putting any pressure on children. Besides reading to them, parents can start "ear training" their child by playing thyme games. This develops the child's ability to recognize different sounds. In reading to children, parents also can point to words as they go, teaching the child that the funny lines on the page are the words you are saying. All this should be a fun activity.
____________________
Once a child is in school, the learning of reading is inevitably more serious. For children who have some kind of reading difficulty, you must get a professional diagnosis. While the teacher might say the child is merely disinterested but will get over it, disinterest or poor performance in reading can stem from a number of things, some being very specific learning disabilities that can be identified and worked on. But it is very tricky for parents to deal with their own child's learning disabilities.

A major source of teen stress is school exams, and test anxiety is not uncommon. When you recognize your teen is under stress, how can parents help your teen stay calm before an exam?
Be involved. Parents need to be involved in their teen’s work.    What they look for is your presence — to talk, to cry, or simply to sit with them quietly. Communicate openly with your teen. Encourage your teen to express his worries and fears, but don’t let them focus on those fears.

A healthy diet, rather than junk food, is best for reducing stress.

Help your teen balance his time so that he will feel comfortable taking time out from studying to spend time with friends or rest.
Show a positive attitude.     Your panic, anxiety and blame contribute to your teen’s pressure. Make your teen feel accepted and valued for his efforts. Most importantly, reassure your teen that things will be all right , no matter what the results are.

B．Exam stress can make some teens lose their appetite.

Want to be happier and healthier? Be nicer to yourself! According to a study recently reported on The New York Times, people who score high on tests of self-compassion(自怜) are less depressed, less anxious, and often more optimistic._____
“They believe self-criticism is what keeps them in line（符合常规的）. Most people have gotten it wrong because our culture says being hard on yourself is the way to be.” says Kristin Neff, a professor of human development at the University of Texas. In fact, it’s better to go easy on yourself. ______
Try writing about a problem you have that you think is your weakness. ______ Scared, sad, depressed, insecure or angry? Be as honest as possible.
