A
Several months ago I decided it would be wise to investigate（投资）the possibilities of buying a life insurance policy（保险）．I got the name of an insurance agent（代理人）from a friend and called the agent for some information．From the questions I asked him，he could tell I knew nothing about insurance, so he kindly offered to help me determine the kind of policy I ought to be considering．
That night he appeared at my door at 7:30；without wasting time he spread his papers out on the kitchen table and began a long explanation．I listened attentively as he felt I ought to． After three or four hours of talking, he kindly helped me fill out an form for a $50,000 policy, and then he asked if I could go to a Dr．Luther’s office on Friday for a physical examination．
I don’t know why，but it was not until the mention of the doctor’s appointment（约定）that I realized fully what was happening．I was about to sign lifetime contract（合同），yet I had not really made a decision a bout whether I wanted to buy the policy or not．As a matter of fact, the question of a need for a decision from me one way or the other had not even come up．Suddenly I felt sure that I really did not want to buy the policy．However，since he had spent so much time with me, I didn’t want to make him feel that he had wasted his time．So I invented an excuse abut things I had to do on Friday, and I assured I would call him in a few days．Actually, I had no intention of going to see Dr．Luther or of calling the agent again．
I wanted to forget the whole thing―it’s been over three months now since our meeting, and my friendly insurance agent still calls at my office faithfully two or three times a week．My secretary knows that I don’t want to talk to him，so when he calls she tells him that I’m in a meeting or that out of the office or that I’m away on a business trip．I realize now that it was a mistake not to tell him that first night that I didn’t want the policy．Since I still can’t bring myself to tell him directly that I’ m not interested，and please not to bother me anymore．all I can do is avoid his calls and hope l don’t run into him some place．

Text-messaging，the shorthand language favored by teenagers has started to push aside traditional grammar among high school English learners．
Today’s teenagers are 10 times more likely to use non-standard
English in written exams than before．They use informal words, phrases and text
messages such as “m
This language has made it into classrooms．School children are now handing in essays（短文）written in text messages．
Educators say abbreviated words are fine for text messages on the mobile phone, but in school essays, it only shows the laziness of today’s youth．They argue that the use of these shortened forms allows the users to avoid having to spell and use the language correctly．
Despite this，a two-year study by Cambridge University has found that today’s teenagers are rising far more complex（复杂的）sentence structures, a wider vocabulary and a more exact use of capital letters，punctuation and spelling．The quality of writing has also improved，said Alf Massey，head of the department of Cambridge University that carried out the study．
But phrases that may not have been acceptable to examiners have come into regular use gradually．
Barry Spur，a senior lecturer in English at the University of Sydney ,said it was no surprise to learn that students were using the shorthand language in their studies as a move away from the formal use of English．
Spur said the real test was whether teenagers stuck to using informal words and phrases and text messages when they were writing something they knew required a more formal use of English．
He also questioned whether the shorthand really did lead to greater clearness of language or whether it was simply faster．
60．What do many teenagers prefer to use in written exams?
A．Formal words． B．Non-standard English．
C．Traditional grammar rules． D．Numbers and letters．
61．Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A．Alf Massey was the head of Cambridge University．
B．The teenagers have improved the quality of writing．
C．Barry Spur was a senior lecturer in English in Cambridge University．
D．The study was carried out for three years．
62．The exact meaning of the underlined word “abbreviated” in Paragraph 4 is “ ” ．
A．written B．enlarged C．shortened D．spoken
63．The main idea of the passage is ．
A．teenagers like to use text messages
B．text-messaging enters classrooms
C．mobile phone shorthand also belongs to forms essays
D．the usage of text messages shows the laziness of today’s youth

If I were to explain Thanksgiving Day to a foreigner，I would call it simply Turkey（火鸡）Day．Yet, this special holiday has much more to it．
Historically, the first settlers of America celebrated Thanksgiving with a harvest dinner because they successfully went through a hard winter．They also took this chance to thank their Indian friends for their help．Thanksgiving is a greet American tradition to share this holiday with family member and friends．Its importance is almost equal to Christmas in American everyday life．
A college friend of mine once invited me to celebrate this holiday with her family her family．This gave me an inside look at how Americans celebrate this holiday．
When we arrived at her house, my friend’s family greeted us warmly．Once in a While
I went to the kitchen to catch a glimpse of the turkey in the oven．The turkey is cooked whole．It is filled with a mixture of bread crumbs, vegetables and spices．It usually takes four to five hours or more to cook, depending on the size of the turkey．
When it was finally done, two people carried the turkey to the table on a plate, decorated with fruits and leaves．It was the size of a small pig．It looked very impressive having a whole turkey on the table．
When all the food was on the table and the guests were seated, everyone fell silent―it was time for everyone to say a small prayer（祈祷）of thanks． Unlike in China，where only the host makes a speech, it was this family’s tradition to ask each and every person, young or old，family or guest ,to say what they were thankful for．This included me .Well, as one might guess，I was thankful for my first American Thanksgiving．
Then all our attention returned the turkey．We broke into laughter when my friend’s mother came out of the kitchen with an electric knife to cut the Turkey into thin slices．Each dish was passed around and everyone loaded their plate with turkey，potatoes，and other vegetables．

Many studies have been conducted to discover the benefits of listening to and playing music. The growing field of “music treatment” is presenting in creasing amounts of proof that point to the great powers of music．
Emotional（情绪）benefits
The right song can put anybody in a better mood．Most people turn to certain songs to improve their moods．The main reason behind this is that music can express our feelings better than any other medium．In addition，we have favourite songs for particular situations because we turn to the music which has the best effect on us．
Music and exercise
Have you ever noticed how out of breath you get when listening to an exciting song while doing exercises at the gym? It has been suggested that exciting music can actually increase muscle tension（肌肉紧张），while light music does the opposite．
It has also been proved that music can improve motor skills．An experiment conducted on a group of pupils proved that children learning basic motor skills such as throwing, catching and jumping while listening to music did better than those with no music．
Chronic（慢性的）pain relief（减轻）
Music also has the ability to ease chronic pain．In fact according to a paper published in the Journal of Advanced Nursing，music can reduce chronic pain by 21%．The paper reports that 60 patients in an experiment were divided into two groups―one of the group listened to music, nad the other did not．The results showed that people who listened to music for listen to music for an hour each day for a week improved physically and psychologically while those who did not listen to music did not．

Dear Peter，
How is everything going?
I’m glad to receive your 1etter．Now let me tell you how Chinese students celebrate the
birthday．
Since birthday is one of the most important days in our life，Chinese students celebrate it in different ways．The most common way is to hold a birthday party，at which friends get together to have fun drinking，singing and dancing．One usually receives nice gifts and good wishes from friends and parents on his or her birthday．Sometimes，parents will prepare a special dinner or a cake to show their love for heir children．Sometimes，children buy some flowers or cook a delicious meal for our mothers．In this way，we express thanks to our parents in return for their love．
How do you usually celebrate the birthday in your country? Please tell me something about it．
Best wishes．
Yours truly，
Li Hua
