文档简介
1. Festivals and celebrations are important events in human history. For example the Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival takes place on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month. It celebrates the beauty of the full moon and autumn harvest. It is a time when families and friends get together at home, admire the moon and eat mooncakes. 2. That country has already gained independence. That is to say, it is now an independent country. There is a traditional custom in the country. When the agricultural work is over, people might hold a competition and win awards related to agriculture, like the most handsome rooster. During the match, no one can park his car at parking lot without permission. 3. She still remembers that she fell in love with him when the cherry blossomed. During those days they had fun with each other, as though they had been married. Valentines Day is coming. It reminds her of their past sweet days. But it is obvious that he has gone away from her. She will no longer have to hold her breath to listen to him apologize. Now she is weeping and constantly wiping her tears to drown her sadness. She said she would never forgive him.4. Easter is world-wide festival for Christians when Jesus Christs return to life is celebrated. The most exciting celebration should be the Western carnival, which might include parades, dancing in the streets and all kinds of colourful clothing.5. The young man is considered a s one of the most energetic poets at present. Not long ago, his fans were looking forward to his arrival day and night. He promised he would set off in a day or two but he never turned up. The fans felt they were fooled because the poet had not kept his word. 6. During the Qingming Festival, many Chinese people go to clean graves and light incense in memory of the dead of their ancestors. In Mexico, the day of the Dead is a very important feast, and food is made in the shape of skulls or with “bones” on it. On the Western holiday Halloween, children dress up and go to their neighbours to ask for candies. When thy are not satisfied the children may play a trick on them. 7. In ancient times, people would hold celebrations after hunters caught animals, for at that time people would starve if food was difficult to find. Todays festivals have many origins: some religious, some seasonal and some for special people and events.1. Do you eat a healthy diet? A healthy diet is actually a balanced one. We ought to eat more protective food, such as beans, peas, cucumbers, eggplants, peppers, mushrooms, carrots, garlic, peaches and lemons. Some nuts are also preferable.2. The hostess put up a sign at the door, and many customers came to dine with curiosity. However, Wang Peng didnt believe her; he couldnt have Yong Hui getting away with telling people lies. He decided to consult a doctor and find out the problems about her menu. Besides, he tried to win his customers back with a discount. 3. Wang Pengs restaurant offered food that could help grow bones and muscles. His menu contained barbecued mutton kebabs, roast pork, bacon, fried rice, sugary cola, and so on. Yong Huis slimming restaurant aimed at losing weight. It served just rice, raw vegetables with vinegar, fruit and water, which contained plenty of fibre that helped digest better. 4. The two restaurants both had strengths and weaknesses. The diet in Wand Pengs restaurant might cause obesity, as it contained too much fat and too little vitamin while the diet in Yong Huis might lead to their customers being tired, as it didnt contain enough energy-giving food to keep them fit. So they decided to combine the two restaurants into one. Wang Peng cut down the fat and increased the fibre in the meal. Before long he became slimmer, while Yong Hui put on more weight.5. My neighbour earned his living by selling fruits. Because he was heavily in debt, he had to work day and night in order to pay it off. But he made only a limited amount of money and often sighed to himself. Sometimes there was no benefit for a whole day. Then he just went to spy on other fruit sellers. Of course this made some people glare at him.1. Mark Twain was brought up in a poor lawyers family and Florida was his birthplace. One of his best known novels is The Adventures of Tom Sawyer set in his boyhood world. The authors pen name came from the phrase “mark twain” which means that the water is two fathoms deep. His real name was Samuel Langhome Clemens.2. Once in London there lived two old and wealthy brothers named Roderick and Oliver. They mad a bet about what would happen if a penniless man was given a million pound bank note. One day they happened to see a young man in rags wandering on the pavement. He was a business man from America. 3. That evening the party went ahead as planned. Just then a terrible scene appeared. While the hostess was bowing to the guests, someone began to scream suddenly and stared at her in a rude manner. On the contrary, the hostess was still showing a genuine smile. 4. As for the food, like steaks, desserts and pineapples, no one had the appetite to eat. So a large amount of the food was left on the table. It seemed that the hostess had no choice but to take a chance to deal with what had happened. 5. The barber was not permitted to do his business any longer in that country. He thought it was indeed unbelievable. He didnt have the patience to argue, so he wrote a letter and sent it to the embassy to seek help in a large envelope. 6. The young man was requested to explain what I was all about. He said he had landed in Britain by accident. One day, he was sailing out of the bay, and towards nightfall he was caught in a strong wind. But it was all his fault because he hadnt expected there would be a storm. Fortunately, he was spotted by a ship and brought to England. During the journey he earned his passage by working as an unpaid hand, which accounted for his appearance. 1. According to biology, humans, lions and whales are mammals. In general, female mammals give birth to babies rather than lay eggs, and feed their young with milk. 2. As everyone knows, everything in the world is composed for atoms. The atmosphere contains oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide and vapour. Oxygen and water are fundamental to all on the earth. 3. Later, the first tiny plants began to appear and multiplied in the sea; then early shellfish developed. Next green plants began to grow on land, and they were followed in time by land animals such as insects and amphibians. Still later, reptiles appeared for the first time. After that huge dinosaurs developed, too. They existed on the earth for over 140 million years. They became extinct probably because an unexpected incident broke out. 4. My friend John is now studying astronomy at college and wants to be an astronomer after graduation. Unlike other students, he once questioned whether there were eight planets in the solar system. He believed in religion, and even put up a theory quite different form the “Big Bang”. 5. Recently, in order to work out the puzzle of climate warming, many physicists, biologists and geologists attended an important meeting. They discussed how to prevent human beings from putting too much carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Now that this a man-made problem man should solve it himself. 6. Several billion years after the “Big Bang”, the earth finally turned from a violent cloud of dust into a solid globe. Then the presence of water, many scientists believe, allowed the earth to dissolve harmful gases and acids into the oceans and seas. This produced a chain reaction, which made it possible for life to develop.7. Once, a comet crashed on the earth and then exploded. The explosion blocked out the sunlight, so that the smog and steam floated in the air for some time.8. The following is a fictional story. Once upon a time, there were three great scientists named Isaac Newton, Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking, who travlled in the cabin of a spaceship to the moon. They cheered up because they wanted to feel how the pull of the earths gravity would change during their journey. Besides, they observed stars and planets by analyzing the information sent by the satellite. During the whole trip they in their turn watched out for any possible change.1. How much do you know about Canada? The following quiz is very interesting to answer. What language(s) do the Canadians speak? Vancouver, Toronto, Calgary and Ottawa are four big Canadian cites. Which of them is the capital of Canada? Have you heard of the four animalsthe beaver, the grizzly bear, the polar bear and the penguin? Which is the national animal of Canada? Who is the top Canadian leader, the prime minister or the governor?2. Looking westward and upward, the farmers saw a misty cloud in the distance. But they soon became terrified at what they had seen. Approximately one hundred eagles came down into the fields. 3. The two sisters decided to take a trip across the continent of Canada on a train, rather than by plane. They would start off from Vancouver, which is surrounded by mountains, and there is a harbour nearby. They carried their baggage to catch the “True North Train”, chatting about their trip all the way. Going eastward, they would see some great scenery. 4. My schoolmate Jack is now a wealth merchant. he manages a buffet
