湘定雫哂囂玉猟個危
1 I¨ve come here for half a year. Life here is 1
very interesting. We got up early in the morning. 2
After the breakfast, before classes begin, we 3
often do some reading. We can now talk about the 4
number of things with English. How happy I am! 5
We have four classes in the morning. We all 6
study hardly. There are many other interesting 7
activities(試強). We often listen talks on our country. 8
For an example, we students often go out to 9
factories, villages to learn the people. 10
2 Mr Black is one of my best teacher. He taught 1
our English when we were in No.1 Middle School. 2
He was old, but he taught very good. He could make 3
his classes lovely. Mr Black got ready for his 4
lessons and was strict for us, too. Whenever we 5
made mistakes in our homeworks, he would ask 6
us correct and do it again. I was not good at English. 7
Mr Black often helps me with my lessons carefully. 8
Thank to his help and hard work, I have made 9
greatly progress and caught up with the class. 10
3 May be the word ＾hello￣ is used more often 1
than any other one in the English language. Everyone
in U.S.A and other countries uses the word 2
every day of the week. The American inventor
Thomas Edison believed to be the first 3
person to use ＾hello￣ on the telephone.
For first, people began their words on the 4
telephone with ＾Are you there?￣ They were not
sure the small machine could really send voices. 5
Edison was a man of little words. He wasted 6
not a time. The first time he picked 7
up the phone, he didn¨t ask if someone 8
was there. He was sure someone was there
and he only told ＾hello￣. 9
From then on, ＾hello￣ is often hearing 10
When you pick up the telephone.
4 Radio and television are very useful to all us. 1
They may be seen somewhere. Today thousands of 2
people watch TV. Perhaps even more people listen 3
to the radio. On TV we can see what is happened 4
around us. By the radio we can know what is going on 5
in the world. TV is so large for us to take. 6
And radio can be made very small. It is easy to 7
take. You can put in your pocket and listen to it in 8
a bus or on your bike when you go to work. 9
And radio is much more cheaper than TV. 10
5 An old man was walking slow along a street 1
when he saw a little boy try to reach 2
a doorbell. And it was too high for him. He was a 3
kind-hearted old man, so he was stopped and said, 4
＾I will ring a bell for you.￣ And then he pulled it 5
so hard that it can¨t be heard all over the house. 6
The little boy looked up and said, ＾Now 7
we will run away. Go! And after the old 8
man know happened, the boy 9
has run round the corner of the street. 10
6 Mrs White is an old man. She has a small room 1
in an old building. She lived there since 1973. 2
Her husband died that year. He had ill for 3
many year. After his death, Mrs White had 4
not money at all. She found work in a factory. 5
Her job was to clean the offices. She 6
had better to get up at 5 o¨clock in the 7
morning. The last year she was ill and her doctor 8
said, ＾Please work so hard.￣ Now Mrs White sells 9
cakes outside a shoe shop in middle of town. 10
She still doesn¨t have money but she is happier now.
7 Snow fell on the mountain. It snowed and snowed.
The snow didn¨t melt(蛮晒). They became 1
deeper or heavier, then it became ice. The ice was 2
very wide and thickly. It began to move down the 3
mountain. It like a river of ice. It was called a 4
glacier(甥寒). Sometimes the glacier moved 5
only few inches(哂雁) each day. When it moved, 6
it took rocks and dirt for it. It changed the land. In some 7
places, it leave hills. In some places when the glacier 8
melted, it became rivers and lakes. A million years before, 9
there were many high glaciers. Glaciers were covered 10
many parts of the world.
8 Mr Smith called the doctor in midnight. ＾Come quickly. 1
You know my wife sleeps with her mouth opened, a mouse 2
has run inside her!￣ ＾I¨ll be with you after ten minutes.￣ 3
answered the doctor. ＾Until I will arrive, try holding a 4
piece of cheese in front of her mouth. It may carry the 5
mouse out.￣ When the doctor arrived, Mr Smith was not 6
taking a piece of cheese. He was holding a fish 7
in front of her wife¨s mouth. ＾What 8
were you doing?￣ asked the doctor. ＾A mouse 9
doesn¨t like the fish.￣ ＾I know,￣ 10
saying Mr Smith, ＾But we have to get a cat first.￣ 11
9 Working people are usually very busy or tired 1
after a day¨s work to do cooking. They prefer to eating 2
out. This saves them a lot of time and trouble. Eating 3
out is that many people do to solve their meal problems 4
although it cost a little more than preparing meals by 5
themselves. And this is not to say that nobody really does 6
any cooking at all. In the fact, many do. It is just that 7
eating out easier as no preparation is need and no washing 8
is to be done. Some, however, eat out sometimes
because they may want little change from their 9
usual, ordinary, home-cooked meal. 10
10 Last summer my wife and I went to visit town 1
where we both grew up. We hadn¨t been here for ten years. 2
first, we went to the neighborhood where my wife spend 3
her childhood. The house where he was born was still 4
there. The same neighbors still live next door. They asked 5
us to come into and have a cup of coffee. Then we went 6
see my old neighborhood. How a disappointment(払李)! 7
It was all changed. All the old houses which I 8
remembered gone and in there places were some very 9
modern ones.
