Today Austens books are more popular than ever. In the last 10 years, five of her six novels have been made into Hollywood films, while her books continue to be best-sellers.Richard Jenkyns, a professor of English at Oxford University, says that her novels are about marriage, friendships and the family, which are still with us today. “The stories are timeless,” Jenkyns said.Pride and Prejudice(偏见)(1813) is Austens most famous work. It is a love story about Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy. At first, these two dislike each other. Elizabeth is pretty, smart and lively. She is proud because Darcy doesnt know about her family. Mr. Darcy is handsome, rich and has a better family background. So, he is proud as well. At the same time, Darcy holds a prejudice against the Bennet family. He has no understanding of why the family, especially its mother and daughters should try so hard to find wealthy and powerful husbands. He thinks they are vulgar. Anyway, Elizabeth and Darcy finally fall in love and become a romantic couple but their families dont want them to.In Pride and Prejudice, some of the main things that Jane Austen wants to teach people are as follows. Opposites can attract each other. Lovers should not only make each other feel relaxed or comfortable, but also educate and improve each other. Austen is often called the greatest romantic writer, so it is surprising she remained unmarried. “Maybe she was too romantic, waiting for the perfect man,” Jenkyns says.34. From Paragraph 1and Paragraph 2, we can know _ .A. Jane Austen passed away in her fiftiesB. Austens works remain popular todayC. all of Austens works have been made into Hollywood films.D.

Elizabeth and Darcy fall in love at first sight.B. Elizabeth has a better family background than Darcy.C. Darcy has a first good impression of Elizabeths family.D. Elizabeth and Darcy become a romantic couple in the end. CI will never forget my experiences in the United States. I went to an American college a year ago. Yet I did not know the real American society until I was hurt in a car accident because after the accident I had to see a doctor and go to court（法院）.After the accident, my roommate called a doctor for me. I was very grateful and decided to repay him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $200 for what he had done. I was surprised. He had a good reason to charge me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible(负有责任的) for my accident, Id have to have a good lawyer. And only a good doctor can help me get a good lawyer. Now that he had helped me find a good doctor, it was only fair that I should pay him. But every day I went to see the doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three patients at the same time, and often stop treating one so as to see another. Yet he charged me $115 each time. The final examination report consisted of ten lines, and it cost me $215. My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all. He knew very well the other party was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited to collect his money. He was so irresponsible that I decided to refuse his help. And he made me pay him $770. Now I had to act as my own lawyer. I told the insurance(保险）company the date I was leaving America because of my inexperience（缺少经验）. Knowing that, they played for time and I left without getting a cent.My experiences taught me two things about America: firstly, in a country like America money is everything. It is more important than friendship, honor or professional morality. Secondly, foreigners are still being unfairly treated.

Those lines on the paper can help you to write words in the right size. Be sure to fill the lined space completely. And remember to write proper capital letters.Slow downIf your writing is hard to read, try slowing down a little. For some kids, going a little slowly makes the handwriting clear. If you write too fast, its hard for you to stop where you should, and even worse, you may make more mistakes.Hold your pencil correctlyWhen you hold your pencil correctly, writing is much easier. Some kids press down really hard when they write. That makes the handwriting not nice. Try to be relaxed and dont hold the pencil so hard. Let your writing appear nice and clean.

It is “Aibiying (爱彼迎)”, meaning “to welcome each other with love”. The name has been met with laughter in China, although it means something good. This Chinese name is just hard to pronounce and sounds strange! Its not easy for companies to come up with a good brand (品牌) name. But its even more difficult to translate it into Chinese. “Foreign companies have to understand there is meaning in Chinese characters. Its not like English where you can take letters and mix them together to make different sounds,” Tait Lawton from Nanjing Marketing Group said. “The wrong name will just give the wrong impression.” But some brands have done great jobs. Coca-Cola is a good example. Its Chinese name “kekou kele (可口可乐) ” means “delicious fun” and stays true to the original English. On top of that, part of the name sounds like the Chinese word for “thirsty”. British bank HSBC also came up with a clever one, “hui feng (汇丰)”, it has a good Chinese meaning and sounds like every other local bank, instead of an international big company, according to Vladimir Djurovic from a company that helps brand foreign companies in China. “There is no absolute (绝对的) rule (when choosing a good Chinese name). The right name will always depend on a couple of things,” he said.69. Why dont people like the Chinese name of Aibiying? 70. According to Tait Lawton, which is more difficult, come up with an English brand name or translate it into Chinese?71. Whats the difference between Chinese characters and English letters?72. The writer gives two examples of good Chinese name in the passage, what are they?73. Please list at least two possible rules when choosing a good Chinese name.七、书面表达（共20分）临近毕业，你们班级在征集如何庆祝毕业的活动建议，作为活动策划人，你采访了三位同学，他们说了自己的想法和理由，请根据记录的内容要点写一篇90词左右英语短文，并谈谈你自己的
