Mr. Wise,

I am a slow（迟钝的）student. Most of my classmates are much better than me. So I usually get worried. I spent much time studying for the tests, but I can’t get good grades（分数）. Sometimes my father gives me some help. He tells me not to worry about it. But it doesn’t work. What do you think I should do?

Xiaoming

Dear Xiaoming,

Many famous people were not so good when they were young. Edison, a famous scientist(科学家), did badly in his studies when he was a 12-year-old boy. But he did a lot for the people in the world at last. When I was at your age, I didn’t do well at school. But I kept working hard and I succeeded(成功) at last. You should take it easy and try your best. Tomorrow is another day. I believe you can do better.

完形填空

My birthday was a few days ago. Now I’m 24 years old and I’m  1  with teaching. I didn’t remember my birthday until the morning of the 1st. It was just like an ordinary day, no presents, no party, no cake... When I was  2   , I always felt sad that almost nobody remembered my birthday, not even my family. But now I don’t    3  any more, especially this year, from my birthday to next day, not much     4 . This month I have several foreign students   5   Chinese with me. I give lessons privately, so I need to do quite a lot of work before each lesson. So far I’m getting more    6   in teaching foreigners Chinese, and I think it’s a very cool job. When I was at  7 , I wanted to follow these native English speakers. They can   8  to foreign countries and get teaching jobs easily almost anywhere even though they’re not real teachers. I complained Chinese people didn’t have as many chances as people from the West. But now things are  9  . As China is becoming stronger, Chinese is becoming more and more    10  and maybe in the future I can get teaching jobs in foreign countries. I’ll study more and get ready.

Five students went out for a one-week trip in the countryside. When they returned, the group leader wrote a report about each student. _

请把下面五位同学的感受与上面领队对他们的评价相匹配。（5分）

1. The food was so terrible. I missed my parents so much. How comfortable when I was at home!

2.What a pity! Everything was going well, and then I hurt myself. The last few days were quite boring.

3. I love this kind of trip! I always had some new things to do and learn. It was great fun helping organize activities.

4.They wanted me to get out of bed very early, and be ready for the day’s activities soon. Then they got angry when I kept them waiting.

5.I was often very lonely. I had problems making friends. Some of the activities were dangerous. I think I made the mistake of going on this trip.
