Do you know how to write an English letter?
When we write a letter in Chinese, we always put the date at the end of the letter. But it is different in English. We have to put it on the top of the right corner. And above the date, we also write the number of our house and the names of our street, city and country. To begin the letter, we always use words like “Dear sir” “Dear Mr /Miss/ Mrs…”.To the end of the letter, we usually use words like “Yours” “Yours ever” or “Truly yours”.
It is also different to write an English envelope. If you write to an Australian friend named Jane Shute, write your name and address on the top of the left corner and write hers in the middle.
Now read the following envelope, please.
“We have to put it on the top of the right corner.” The word “It” here means
| A．the date | B．the letter | C．the envelope | D．the passage |
From the passage, we know when we write an English letter, we should put down our address.
| A．at the end of the letter on the left |
| B．at the end of the letter on the right |
| C．at the top of the letter on the left |
| D．at the top of the letter on the right |

What's the most important thing for you to have in your life? Somebody mentions (提到 ) hard-work,others suggest knowledge, love and luck.
If you arrange the 26 English letters alphabetically(按-r母表IYJ顺序)and use numbers to represent each of them, for example, I for a 2 for b, 3 for c..., you can change an English word into a number. So hard-work becomes 8+1+1 8+4+23+15+1 8+11="98," meaning 98 is its mark; knowledge:11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5="96.while" love:12+15+22+5="54," and luck:12+2l+3+11="47," a small mark．None of these words can give one a full mark．What about money or prayer(祈祷）?They can't, either.
Then what else? Don't be worried. You can always find an answer to a problem in your life, when you change your way of looking at things or doing things，or your attitude（态度）．Yes，attitude is the word. See for yourself: attitude:1+20+20+9+20+2l+4+5="100," a full mark.
Different attitudes lead to different courses of life. Most times people hope for a better life. It is possible that one will have a change for the better after one has changed one's attitude.
When you change your manner and became friendly towards others, you'll meet more smiling faces towards you．1n the same way. if you take a positive（积极地）attitude towards failure（失败）, you'll find it's also rewarding though it has caused you losses.What is the mark of the word “money”？
| A．54 | B．72 | C．96 | D．100 |
In the writer's opinion, what is the most important thing in a person's life?
| A．Hard work. | B．Knowledge. | C．Money. | D．Attitude. |
According to the passage, if you meet with problems，the best way out is to_______．
| A．ask for help from others |
| B．say your prayers to God |
| C．change your attitude |
| D．try maths—solving methods(方法) |
From the passage we can learn that_______.
| A．different attitudes come from different courses of life |
| B．mathematics can solve every problem easily in our daily life |
| C．failure sometimes can bring you good if you take a positive attitude |
| D．none of the English words except "attitude" equals to 100 or more |

My name is James.
In my family there’s my mother—Anna, and my father—John, and my brother—Jeff. Jeff is the joker(滑稽的人) in the family, and we like him.
My mom’s parents will visit us this Sunday. They’re very cool. Tony, that’s my grandfather, He likes music very much, and Grace, my grandmother, can dance (跳舞).
Look at the photo. These are my mom’s brother and his wife, Uncle Peter and Aunt Emma, and their son, Bill. Bill likes to play computer games, and we have a good day this Sunday.
LONDON—Scientists have found an unusual way to prevent our planet from overheating: move it to a cooler spot. All you have to do is to send a few comets (彗星) in the direction of Earth, and its orbit (轨道)will be changed. Our world will then be sent moving into a safer older part of the solar system.
This idea for improving our climate comes from a group of US NASA (美国航空航天局) engineers and American astronomers. They say their plan could add another six billion years to the useful lifetime of our planet—hopefully doubling its working life.
The plan put forward by Dr. Laughlin, and his colleagues Don Korycansky and Fred Adams, needs carefully directing a comet or asteroid (小行星) so that it passes close by our planet and sends some of its gravitational energy (重力势能) to Earth.
“Earth’s orbital speed would increase as a result and we would move to a higher orbit away from the sun,” Laughlin said.
Engineers would then direct their comet so that it passed close to Jupiter(木星) or Saturn (土星). The comet would pick up energy from one of these giant planets. Later its orbit would bring it back to Earth, and the process would be repeated.
In the short term, the plan provides an ideal way to worldwide warming, although the team was actually worried about a much greater danger. The sun is certain to heat up in about a billion years and so “seriously compromise” our biosphere (生物圈)—by cooking us.
That’s why the group decided to try to save Earth.
The plan has one or two worrying sides, however. For a start, space engineers would have to be very careful about how they directed their asteroid or comet towards Earth. The smallest miscalculation (误算)in orbit could fire it straight at Earth—with deadly results.
There is also the question of the moon. As the present issue of Scientific American magazine points out, if Earth was pushed out of its present location, it is “most likely the moon would be stripped (剥离)away from Earth,” it states. This would greatly change our planet’s climate.
| A．A few comets are moving to the direction of Earth. |
| B．Earth’s working life is coming to an end soon. |
| C．Earth will become too hot for mankind to keep alive. |
| D．The moon is moving farther and farther away from Earth. |
| A．12 billion | B．6 billion |
| C．18 billion | D．24 billion |
| A．The comet might hit Earth and man might lose the moon. |
| B．Earth might be moved too far away and man might die because of the coldness. |
| C．The comet might hit Jupiter or Saturn and never return to Earth. |
| D．Earth’s working life might be greatly shortened. |
| A．provide | B．benefit (收益) |
| C．share | D．Endanger |
Our factories and homes burn coal and oil. Every year we have forest fires somewhere. Many scientists believe that the climate is changing.
The earth will perhaps be warmer by about 7 degrees centigrade. At the South Pole and the North Pole, the ice will melt (融化). The sea level (海平面) will rise by about 7meters. As a result, water will cover cities like London, Tokyo and New York. Some ports and towns along the coasts will disappear under water.
Some other scientists think that the dust, smoke and pollution from coal, wood and oil fires will block out the sunrays(紫外线). Then the earth will become colder and great sheets of ice will cover Europe and North America.
When chemicals in the air mix with rain, we have acid (酸) rain. Acid rain can bring us great harm. It destroys forests and kills life in lakes and rivers.
People are beginning to see how serious the problem is. They find it important to work with nature instead of against it. They are trying to save the earth in many different ways. But one of the most important things to do is to make people understand that saving the earth is saving ourselves. Some scientists believe that .
A. the earth is growing warmer
B. we can find oil in our forests
C. we have to burn down the forests every yearIce at the poles will if the earth gets warmer.
A. cover cities like London and Tokyo
B. raise the sea level by 7 degrees
C. become water and make the sea level rise Acid rain .
A. brings great changes in our climate
B. kills pests in lakes and forests
C. kills the fish in rivers and lakes What can we learn from the third paragraph?
A. The dust together with pollution from coal, wood and oil fires will bring us more heat from the sun.
B. The sunrays will come more because of the dust and pollution from fires.
C. As a result of the dust and pollution from coal, wood and oil fires, the earth will become colder. Which statement is TRUE?
A. People have come to know the importance of working with nature.
B. All the scientists agree that our earth is sure to become warmer and warmer.
