Dear editor，
With the fast development of e-commerce，online shopping is increasingly becoming an unavoidable part of our life．The popularity of online shopping definitely has its own reasons．First and foremost，online shopping usually means something you buy are both cheaper in price and better in quality．（高分句型一）Besides，goods you get online come to you fast as well as conveniently，saving your tiredness of shopping and walking．（高分句型二）But the other side of the coin is also true．Goods bought online are not as fine as those from the store which you can watch，feel and smell by yourself．Some online shoppers become impatient or even unreasonable after you have paid for the goods．（高分句型三）
In my opinion，we should improve our e-commerce laws to regulate the activities of online purchase．Meanwhile，as online customers，we should be cautious while shopping online．
Best wishes!
Yours，
Li Hua．

18．When we were kids，my little sister Madison and I were the M&Ms-my parents'two daughters．（36）CSo it was quite a surprise when my mom and dad sat us down to let us know that baby number three was on the way when I was 10years old．However，as soon as my brother Mac was born，he completely stole my heart and I have learned many things from having a young brother．
●（37）B
Having a baby in your life means watching your parents endlessly change diapers （尿布），make bottles，and wipe spit-ups every once in a while．I was allowed to do those things and I learned just how important it was to take care of this little life before I even hit middle school．
●You watch a child grow up．
（38）EI remember how excited my family was when we discovered how fast of a reader he was in kindergarten．I'll never forget telling him bedtime stories before he went to sleep at night．It's cool to think about the entirety of his life and how far he has come．
●You teach your brother life lessons．
From a young age，my brother watched my sister and me overcome personal challenges，go to high school，and，worst of all，get our hearts broken．（39）GWatching his sisters go through life's difficulties has taught him how he should act when he gets older．
Now Mac is 11years old．I have no shame in telling people that one of my best friends is an 11-year-old boy．In fact，our family without him is unimaginable．（40）F

A．You stay in the know．
B．You learn about responsibility early on．
C．We received a lot of attention，and we liked it that way．
D．All I can say is that my family wouldn't be happy without Mac．
E．I remember the first time Mac crawled，walked，and said my name．
F．Thanks，Morn and Dad，for turning the M&Ms into the Three Musketeers．
G．Nothing makes Mac more upset than a mean guy who hurts a girl's feelings．

Should People Eat Green Food？
Recently our class had a discussion about whether people should eat green food．
About 65% of the students believe people should eat green food，since the environment isn't polluted in the process of production．（高分句型一）Also，it is produced without harmful chemicals，making it safer to eat．（高分句型二）
But 35% of the students think people shouldn't eat green food，since it is much more expensive．What's more，most green food is sold in big supermarkets，making it inconvenient to buy．（高分句型三）
In my opinion，people should eat green food if they can afford it．Why would they want to risk making themselves sick？．

16．Having a dental fear（牙科恐惧症）is a common problem．Learning to overcome your fear of the dentist is possible with a little determination and guidance．It is worthwhile to overcome the issue as healthy teeth might help you be healthy physically and spiritually．
Admission
Admitting you have a fear is the first step in overcoming dental fear．When you acknowledge your fear，you can start the process．Dentistry has come a long way over the years．The anesthetics（麻醉）are improved，the techniques are of higher quality and dental offices have a better understanding of these issues you are concerned and all these can help you overcome it．
Research
Speak to family and friends about your fear．Be open and honest about your issues and get feedback from them regarding their dental experiences．You can contact your local Dental Society and express your concerns．Another good approach is to simply call dental offices and get useful information from the front office staff．
First visit
Most dental offices schedule your first visit by a dental assistant．This gives you a chance to ease into the situation．Do not hesitate to express your fear and hesitation．Pay attention to what the assistant says．It can be very useful and it can gently guide you to a new attitude towards dentists．
Relaxation techniques
There are many things you can do to relax yourself．Slow，steady，deep breaths are keys to relax properly．Another aid in relaxation is to bring your iPod to play some relaxing music while you are in the dental chair．Music is a wonderful tool to use and is a helpful distraction．
Facing your fear and making the first dental appointment are necessary for your health．Ignoring your dental health because of your fear will only worsen the issues and cause you to have serious dental problems．

21．We can learn from the first paragraph thatC．
A．few people might have the dental fear
B．it's impossible to overcome the dental fear
C．it's meaningful to overcome the dental fear
D．it's not necessary to pay attention to dental health
22．You can start the process of overcoming dental fear afterA．
A．admitting your dental fear
B．asking advice from other people
C．learning something about dental health
D．making an appointment with a good dentist
23．What should you do when you first visit a dentist？B
A．Ask someone to accompany you．
B．Listen carefully to the assistant's advice．
C．Avoid telling your fear and hesitation．
D．Avoid showing any attitude towards the dentists．

15．昨天我校邀请知名校友李先生为高三学生作报告，请你根据以下要点为我校英文期刊Shoots写一篇100字左右的报道：
1．校友回忆在我校学习的经历；
2．校友的成功及对母校的感激；
3．自己听报告后的感想．
注意：1．词数100左右；
2．可以适当增加情节，以使行文连贯；
3．开头语已为你写好．
Yesterday we invited Mr．Li，a famous scholar and schoolmate of our school，to give a speech to us Senior 3 students．All of us felt deeply touched by his lecture and proud of our distinguished schoolmate．
Mr．Li once studied in this same school many years ago and later he went to a famous university in the North．（高分句型一）After graduation，he devoted his life to teaching in the rural areas of our country for more than 30 years．His devotion and selflessness are highly thought of by all his students as well as by the society．（高分句型二）Meanwhile，he donated many books to our school and showed deep affection to his former teachers and his high school．
As a senior high school student，I'm determined to learn from Mr．Li and become a worthwhile schoolmate of our school．（高分句型三）．

14．Breathe，wave and smile．Along with more than 300other seniors，I marched into the stadium on the afternoon of May 10．The audience burst into deafening cheers．The huge stadium shook with all the whistling and clapping．
It was as if a Hollywood superstar had walked on stage．And indeed，every single senior that day was a star of the moment．Each deserved it．The seniors had been preparing for four years for this once-in-a-lifetime moment-the commencement （graduation ceremony）．
Seated，I waited anxiously for the opening address．As a foreign exchange student，I was not able to receive a diploma．However，I still had the wonderful feeling of being part of things．Like the other graduates，I was dressed in marron cap and gown．
Our principal，Mr．Glover，delivered a short，warm greeting．The US national anthem followed and then，hands on chests，a solemn Pledge of Allegiance（美国的爱国誓言）．
Students who had excelled academically gave farewell speeches．The tears in some eyes convinced me that many had deep feelings about the occasion．It was as the class motto says，"Life brings us tears，smiles and memories．The tears dry； the smiles fade； but the memories last forever．"
Then came the core （the most important part） of the commencement．Hundreds of names were announced．Each graduate walked across the stage to receive his or her diploma from the principal．From the different cheers each graduate got，we had the funny sense that it was a kind of competition of who could cheer the loudest．
To be honest，the presentation of diplomas got boring．A girl sitting next to me even started yawning．But it wasn't boring for those receiving the diploma：they would treasure the moment the principal placed the sacred brown document in their hands for the rest of their lives．
A new page in the book of that person's life had turned．They were glimpsing their futures：futures of challenge，hardship，perhaps loneliness too，which would take all of their courage．

32．What's the article mainly about？A
A．An American high school's graduation ceremony．
B．The opening ceremony of a sports meeting．
C．A presentation of college diplomas．
D．A US college's farewell party．
33．Which of the following statements about the author is FALSE？C
A．She was one of the graduates．
B．She was a foreign exchange student．
C．She was excited to receive her diploma．
D．She felt it great to be at the ceremony．
34．The right order of the following events isD．
a．Diplomas were presented to graduates．
b．Students gave farewell speeches．
c．The US national anthem was played．
d．The principal gave a short，warm speech．
e．Seniors went into the stadium．
A．b，c，a，d，e          B．c，d，b，e，a            C．d，b，e，a，c         D．e，d，c，b，a
35．From the text，we can conclude thatC．
A．a diploma ensures a good job
B．a diploma guarantees a bright future
C．the commencement symbolizes the beginning of a new stage in life
D．everyone felt excited at the presentation of the diploma．
