  Dear Sir,

     I have to travel every day from So UK Road to the airport. Two buses travel along this route: No.49 and No.16. However, by the time No.16 reaches So UK Road, it is always full.____

     The timetable states that there are buses from So UK Road to the airport every ten minutes.____ The instructions state that if there are empty seats on a bus, the bus must stop at every stop where people are waiting. ____

    The instructions state that no bus may carry more than 40 seated passengers and 20 standing passengers. Yesterday, I was the first to get off the bus when it reached the airport. ____ There were 129 of them.

    Clearly printed on the back of every bus is a sign that says “Maximum speed: 50mph.” _____ Saturday morning a No. 49 bus traveled the distance in ten minutes, at an average speed of 60 mph. At times it must have done at least 80 or even 90 mph.

    It is obvious that our bus companies have neither respect for the instructions nor consideration for their passengers. Can nothing be done about this?

                                                                                  Jerry

  A. I counted the other passengers as they got off.

  B. Why is it that half-empty buses go straight past me when I am standing at the bus stop?

  C. The problem is that we have to pay more for our trip.

  D. The distance from So UK Road to the airport is 10 miles.

  E. This leaves No.49 which sometimes has empty seats on it.

  F. If this is so, why do I have to wait half an hour for a bus nearly every day?

The days of elderly women doing nothing but cooking huge meals on holidays are gone. Enter the Red Hat Society -a group holding the belief that old ladies should have fun.

“My grandmothers didn’t do anything but keep house and serve everybody. They were programmed to do that,” said Emily Cornette, head of a chapter of the 7-year-old Red Hat Society.

 While men have long spent their time fishing and playing golf, women have sometimes seemed to become unnoticed as they age. But the generation now turning 50 is the baby boomers(生育高峰期出生的人), and the same people who refused their parents’ way of being young are now trying a new way of growing old.

If you take into consideration feminism(女权主义), a bit of spare money, and better health for most elderly, the Red Hat Society looks almost inevitable(必然的). In this society, women over 50 wear red hats and purple(紫色的) clothes, while the women under 50 wear pink hats and light purple clothing.

 “The organization took the idea from a poem by Jenny Joseph that begins: “When I am an old woman, I shall wear purple. With a red hat which doesn’t go,” said Ellen Cooper, who founded the Red Hat Society in 1998. When the ladies started to wear the red hats, they attracted lots of attention.

 “The point of this is that we need a rest from always doing something for someone else,” Cooper said. “Women feel so ashamed and sorry when they do something for themselves.” This is why chapters are discouraged from raising money or doing anything useful. “We’re a ladies’ play group. It couldn’t be more simple,” added Cooper’s assistant Joe Heywood.

1.The underlined word “chapter” in paragraph 2 means __________.

A.one branch of an organization              

B.a written agreement of a club

C.one part of a collection of poems         

D.a period in a society’s history

2.From the text , we know that the “baby boomers” are a group of people who         

A.have gradually become more noticeable                                

B.are worried about getting old too quickly 

C.are enjoying a good life with plenty of money to spend

 D.tried living a different life from their parents when they were young

3.It could be inferred from the text that members of the Red Hat Society are          .

A.interested in raising money for social work

B.programmers who can plan well for their future

C.believers in equality between men and women

D.good at cooking big meals and taking care of others

4.Who set up the Red Hat Society ?

A.Emily Cornette .   B.Ellen Cooper .  

C.Jenny Joseph .    D.Joe Heywood .

5.Women join the Red Hat Society because          .

A.they want to stay young  

B.they would like to appear more attractive

C.they would like to have fun and live for themselves

D.they want to be more like their parents

Health is the most important thing in the world. Nothing is more important than health. If one takes away our money, houses, cars, or even our clothes, we can still survive. 1.  That is why we always try to eat in a healthy way and exercise regularly.

How can we keep healthy? In order to eat healthily, I usually avoid eating food high in fat, like French fries or cookies, which are junk foods. 2. Besides, I only eat little meat.

3.  Taking exercise every day helps us build a strong body. Regular exercise is an important part of keeping me healthy.

What’s more, I think friends are an important part of one’s health. 4.  I always feel better when I am with friends than when I am alone. When I am with my friends, I always laugh. Laughing is also an important part of health. It is good to stay with my friends.

By eating properly and exercising regularly, I can keep my body at a proper weight and keep healthy. By spending time with my friends, I can keep my mind as well as my body happy. These things sound easy to do, but not many people can manage them. 5.
