However, he always seemed cheerful and made us all laugh at family parties, even though he was missing so much of the fun that most teenagers have.

Some people think that the best way to control your weight is to eat only lettuce and be miserable!In fact this is not at all good for you. It's much better to eat a diet which consists of lots of different sorts of food. Choose good quality bread, rice, pasta and potatoes for energy. Make sure you eat lots of fruit and vegetables. Meat, fish, cheese and eggs are also good but you don't need so much of these. It's most important to eat a balanced diet. If you do this and take regular exercise, you'll find it's easy to eat well and stay healthy.

The survey about smokers in a middle school tells that although 89% of the students never smoke, 3% of them

often smoke and 8% sometimes do. In other words, 11% of the students smoke. That’s terrible.

As we know, smoking is harmful to health, not only the health of those smokers, but also that of people

around. Every year, thousands of people die from smoking. And also smoking may cause a loss of money.

Sometimes, cigarette ends may cause a fire.

All in all, smoking is so dangerous that we should keep away from it.

Water is very important for living things. Without water, there could be no life on earth. However, there is a

First of all, we must keep in mind the importance of water and try to save water in our daily life. Second,

factories and companies and all of us should not pollute water. Third, try to reuse the waste water.

Let’s work together to save water and save our lives or the last drop of water will be our tear drop.

IV. Passages

A) Listen to the following passage, and choose the best answer to each question. The passage will be read twice.

There are many different kinds of sharks. The largest is the Great White Shark. These sharks can grow to be more

than 6 meters long. That is even larger than a car. They also have more than 3,000 very sharp teeth. They can

find food by smelling it from very far away.

Generally, people think that Great White Sharks are quite dangerous. The fact is that sharks are usually very

afraid of people. If they attack, it is because they are afraid or interested. Actually, few people die from shark

bites. Still, every year, a small number of people are hurt in accidents with sharks.

In fact, Great White Sharks really need our help. Every year, around the world, there are fewer of them that

can survive. Fishermen sometimes take lots of fish from the ocean. And then, these sharks have nothing to eat. If

we are not careful, one day there could be no Great White Sharks. This is very sad.

B) Listen to the following passage, and fill in each blank according to the passage with no more than two words.

The passage will be read twice.

Everyone, may I have your attention, please? I just want to make a brief announcement about tomorrow蒺s field trip

12:35. Therefore, you should bring your lunch or enough money to buy something to eat in the museum cafeteria.

After that, we are going to take a tour of the theater. And then we蒺ll be back at 3 o蒺clock. Oh, yes, remember to

take 10 dollars for the museum and theater entry fee, an umbrella and your student card. Any questions?

B) One possible version:

The idea of living on the moon is no longer science fiction. However, there will be drawbacks to living there as well as advantages.

On the positive side, people will be able to escape from the earth's overcrowded cities, and will have wonderful clear views of the earth and stars.

On the other hand, the moon is an unfriendly place for humans. First of all, people will have to wear special suits and if their equipment fails, they will probably die. Secondly, they will have to get used to being weightless. Finally, they will probably miss the plants and wildlife that exist on the earth.

In all, the moon might be the ideal place for a holiday or for scientists to carry out research, but not for ordinary people to live on all the time.

VII. 写作(Writing)

A) One possible version:

Dear Sir / Madam,

In response to your request for information about Weightaway tablets, I am writing to tell you about my experience.

I am always looking for ways to lose weight and the advertisement for Weightaway made it sound ideal for me. So I tried the tablets.

So far, however, I seem to have lost no weight at all. After I take the tablet with my breakfast I feel sick for the rest of the morning. This certainly reces my appetite, but I consider it a very unpleasant effect. Besides, in the evening I am very hungry and sometimes eat even more than usual. As for exercise, the tablets make me too tired to move at all.

I have nearly finished the tablets I bought and I think I am even more overweight than before. I strongly advise your readers not to waste their money on this proct.

Yours faithfully,

Zhang

B) One possible version:

This report is about the living conditions of elderly people in my town.

Many elderly people live alone or in special retirement homes because they prefer to be independent and do not want to cause problems to their families. This may also be because their children have small houses and don't have enough room for them.

Although many elderly people prefer to live alone, this is often inconvenient. For example, it may be difficult for them to go upstairs. They may also be lonely. On the other hand, if they live in a retirement home, they may not be free to do the things they want to.

I have three suggestions as follows:

1. The living conditions should be suitable for elderly people.

2. There should be regular visits to those living alone.

3. Those living with others need to have some privacy.
