1. When most of my friends were quarreling with their fathers, I was looking to mine for guidance. He knows     about me than anyone else. He     for work so he’s gone a lot. Most people assume we have a     relationship because he’s not at home very often. But we get along well under this situation     we talk every night by phone, and he makes his support known when he can’t be present. One night my world just collapsed, and     was my dad who was able to pick up the pieces.
My first true love called from a party and     my heart. He offered little explanation and this made the     more difficult to accept. In that quick phone call I lost my boyfriend and best friend, a     I had enjoyed for the past year and a half. I was sure I was the most miserable fifteen-year-old girl in the world—lost and    . It felt like everyone else’s life could just continue on in its normal way, but mine couldn’t.
I was forced to deal with my regular        on Monday morning, as Mom went to work, Dad flew out     business and I went to school. Dad wouldn’t return until Friday. I wasn’t sure     I was going to face everyone and their     at school. I was right：the questions and the whispers started around the second period.
I returned home from school feeling     defeated. All I wanted to do was crawling into bed and wallowing (在……里挣扎) in my own self-pity. I pulled back the covers on my bed and     a pile of cards left by my dad. Each card included a(n)      . He was halfway across the country and still my dad was able to show he    .
I made it through that week because of him. Each card seemed to say just what I needed to hear. I was instructed to open the last     after the party I went to on Saturday night. In it he sagely (贤明地) reminded me to     .“The world isn’t so bad after a good laugh. The more you laugh, the more you heal.”Each card was    , Love, Dad.

B．environment

C．instruction

1. Compared to the other parts of the body, our ears don’t ask for much. They don't need to be brushed once a day like your teeth. But they need some special care, especially if you like listening to music with earphones.
Maybe your mum or dad has told you, "Turn that down before you go deaf!" Well, they are quite right. Loud noise might cause hearing loss for a short time or even forever. Think that earphones are a good way to escape from tour parents’ eyes? Well. It may not be as good a way as you expect. American doctors have studied a group of 44,000 people who used earphones more than 15 hours per week. The doctors found that 37,000 of them were getting hearing problems.
If you use earphones for too long a time, your ears might feel painful. You could also lose your hearing for the rest of your life. So don’t wear your earphones too long. Use them less than one hour a day. Want sharp hearing? Don’t forget to do the following: Try to stay away from places where there is too much noise, like a disco. If you have to go, wear earplugs. When swimming, remember to put earplugs into your ears to stop water from getting in. Never put anything sharp into your ears. If you think you have too much earwax, ask your mum or dad to help you clean it out.
Keep these things in mind! Then you won't be saying "WHAT???" when you are older.

2. Outside her shabby cottage, old Mrs. Tailor was hanging out laundry on a wire line, unaware that some children lay hidden in the leaves of a nearby tree watching her every move. They were determined to find out if she was really a witch.
They watched as she took a broomstick to clean the dirt from her stone steps. But, much to their disappointment, she did not mount the broomstick and take a flight. Suddenly, the old lady’s work was interrupted by the cackling of her hen—a signal that an egg had been laid in the warm nest on the top of the haystack.
The old broomstick was put aside as she hobbled (蹒跚) off towards the haystack followed by Sooty, a black cat she had rescued from a fox trap some time back. With only three legs, it was hard for Sooty to keep up with the old lady. The cat provided proof—the children were sure that only a witch could own a black cat with three legs.
There, standing on a wooden box, was Mrs. Tailor, stretching out to gather her precious egg. Taking the egg in one of her hands, she began to climb down when, without warning, the box broke and the old lady fell.
“We have to go and help her,”whispered Amy.
“What if it is a trick?”replied Ben.
“Don’t be silly, Ben. If she were a witch, she would have turned us into frogs already,”reasoned Meg.“Come on, Amy! Let’s go.”The girls climbed down the tree and ran all the way to the haystack.
Approaching carefully, they could see a wound on the old lady’s face. She had knocked her head on a stone and her ankle was definitely broken.“Go and get Dad,”Amy yelled at her brother.“Tell him about the accident.”
The boys did not need another excuse to leave. They ran as fast as they could for help, hoping that Mrs. Tailor would not wake and turn the girls into frogs.
【小题1】Why were the children hiding in the tree?

A．Because they wanted to watch Mrs. Tailor do her housework closely.

B．Because they were playing a hide-and-seek game.

C．Because they wanted to find out if the rumors about Mrs. Tailor were true.

D．Because they were pretending to be spies.

【小题2】Mrs. Tailor stopped sweeping when __________.

A．her front steps were clean

B．she noticed the children in the tree

C．she was ready to take a flight

D．she heard the hen cackling

【小题3】Ben did not rush into helping Mrs. Tailor because _________.

A．he thought that she could be tricking them

B．he knew that they could not have been in the tree

C．he did not see the old lady fall down

D．he was afraid of the three-legged cat

3. Generational differences and the economy are shifting more responsibilities for children from their parents to grandparents, according to a new survey.

40 percent of people who responded to the telephone survey, whose average age was 69, reported spending more than ＄500 on grandchildren over the past year beyond traditional gifts. Education costs accounted for about 50 percent, daily expenses for about 32 percent and medical and dental costs for about 18 percent.16 percent provided daycare for grandchildren.

The poll conducted by Woelfel Research Inc. also showed that grandparents increasingly adapted to the younger generation’s life issues and preferred ways of communicating.
More than one-third connect with their grandchildren via email, Skype or text messaging, while half said they routinely discuss topics ranging from values to drug and alcohol use.
Nearly 40 percent said they had discussed dating or sex with at least one grandchild. About 60 percent said they spoke with their grandchildren at least once a week.
Most of the grandparents said they had five or more grandchildren, while one-fourth said they have grandchildren of a different race, mixed race or different ethnicity.

1. Some people believe that greed and selfishness has become the basis of modern society, and we should return to the old traditions of family and community then we will have a better life. To what extent do you agree or disagree with the above opinion?
In this fast-paced world, many values are undergoing major changes. While people
traditionally prioritize caring, sharing and generosity in life and work, modern people seem to be more self-absorbed and self-concerned.
Modern people act selfishly to survive the harsh competition of life. They say that it is a jungle out there. To survive, you have to fight with whatever means that come handy. Obviously greedy and selfishness go perfectly well with such ideas. In a company, employees do everything they can to get better pay and higher position, even at the cost of colleagues. We are in any way advocating any selfish conduct. It is just that people are pressured to act in a certain way due to outside influences.
In spite of common practice, it is hard to conclude that modern society is built on greed and selfishness, both of which are not newly invented vocabulary. In ancient times people also did greedy and selfish things though such behaviors were more condemned then. But we can not ignore the fact that people in the past lived a relatively more isolated life and faced less pressure compared with their modern counterparts.
Are we happier to share with others and be generous to them? There is no fixed answer either. Some people take great pleasure helping and giving to others while others feel happy doing the opposite. But I personally think that people should not be too selfish. Caring for others can actually encourage the development of a mutually beneficial relationship.
In conclusion, modern people appear to be more self-centered than those in the past due to strong outside pressure. However, we should encourage people to know the importance of being caring and generous and build a mutually beneficial relationship with others.
Are Modern People Becoming More Selfish?

Main comparisons	Contexts
【小题1】 are changing	In the past people put caring, sharing and generosity in the first 【小题2】 .
【小题1】 are changing	Nowadays, people seem to be more 【小题3】 about themselves.
【小题4】 are changing too.	People in the past appeared to be modest and self-effacing（谦让的）
【小题4】 are changing too.	People may strive to achieve their own 【小题5】 at the price of their coworkers.
The author’s understanding
【小题6】 for changes in author’s eyes	Fierce 【小题7】 and great 【小题8】 on modern people may be responsible for the changes.
The author’s 【小题9】 towards topic.	A relationship which can 【小题10】 two sides should be established.
