My summer hols wr CWOT. B4, we usd 2 go 2 NY 2C my bro, his CF & thr 3:-@ kids FTF ILNY, its gr8.
  Can you understand this sentence? If you can't, don't feel too bad: neither could the middle school teacher in England who received this as homework. This is Netspeak: the language of computerized communication found on Internet or cellphones. To newcomers, it can look like a completely foreign language. So, what is the "translation" of the sentence above? My summer holidays were a complete waste of time. Before, we used to go to New York to see my brother, his girlfriend, and their three screaming kids face to face. I love New York; it's great.
  Schoolteachers and parents say this new form of writing is harming(破坏)the English language. Increasing spelling and grammatical mistakes cxan be seen in students' writing. They fear the language could become corrupted(面目全非的).
  Everyone should just relax, say linguists(语言学家). They believe Netspeak is in fact more of a good thing. David Crystal, from the University of Wales, argues that Netspeak and Internet create a new language use and the almost lost art of diary writing has been picked up again. Geoffrey Nunberg, from Stanford University, agrees. "People get better at writing by writing," he says, "Kids who are now doing text messaging, e-mail, and instant messages will write at least as well as, and possibly better than, their parents."
  Linguist James Millroy says, for centuries, it is believed without exception that young people are harming the language. And you can bet your bottom dollar that when today's teenagers become tomorrow's parents, they too will think this way. Milroy argues that languages do not and cannot become "corrupted"; they simply change to meet the new needs.
  However, Netspeakers do agree that it is important to teach young people how to speak and write Standard English. Cynthia McVey says, "I can understand Netspeak worries teachers and it's important that they get across to their pupils that text messaging is for fun, but that learning to write proper English is a must for their future."
  Perhaps we should give teenagers a little more trust anyway. Erin, age 12, says, "I wouldn't use text language in my homework. Texting is just for fun"
 【小题1】What is the main purpose of the first paragraph?
A.To give an example of a foreign language.
B.To show an example of creative methods.
C.To express worries about using Netspeak.
D.To lead in the topic of Netspeak.

  Is it a tree? Is it a bear? If you’re looking at a tree in the shape of a bear, it’s a topiary(林木雕塑).A topiary is a tree or a bush(灌木)that is trained into a shape.Growing a topiary garden takes both time and skills.

  A topiary gardener should make a drawing first.The drawing shows the final shape that the gardener likes.The gardener then chooses a bush for the topiary.It may be one that just planted or one that is already in place.

  In June of the plant’s first year, the gardener looks for new leaves.When the leaves grow, it’s time to shape(给……造型)the bottom of the bush.It needs about five years.The top is not trimmed during this time.In the fifth year, the bush grows tall enough for shaping.Then the gardener begins to shape the whole bush.

  Once a topiary has been started, it needs care all year.In the summer it must be cut many times to keep its shape.This cutting also helps the bush grow.In the winter the bushes don’t grow.The gardeners have to brush snow of the plants, or snow may hurt some parts of them.

  Topiary gardening is very old art.The Romans did it in the first Century.In the sixteenth century, people in Europe like topiaries too.By the late 1600s, topiaries were also grown in America.Today it’s popular in many parts of the world.
