I suggested they recall their own teenage years. At that age they would like to be growing away from parents. They preferred to stand on their own two feet. But take a good look at the present rebellion. It seems that teenagers are taking the same way of showing that they disagree with their parents. Instead of going out fighting bravely on their own, most of them are clutching (紧握) at one another’s hands for reassurance.They declare they want to dress as they like. But they all wear the same clothes. They set off in new directions in music. But somehow they all end up gathering around listening to the same record. Their reason for thinking or acting in a similar way is that the crowd is doing it. They have come out of their cocoon (蚕茧) into a larger cocoon.It has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his or her own way. Industry has firmly carved out a teenage market. These days every teenager can learn from the advertisements what a teenager should have and be. And many of today’s parents have come to award high marks for the popularity of their children. All this create a great barrier for the teenager who wants to find his or her own path.But the barrier is worth climbing over. The path is worth following. You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party. You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records. You may have some thoughts that you don’t care to share at once with your classmates. Well, go for it. Find yourself. Be yourself. Popularity will come — with the people who respect you for who you are. That is the only kind of popularity that really matters.4．This passage is aimed at _______.A．people who try to understand and respect each otherB．readers who try to be popular with people aroundC．parents who try to control and guide their childrenD．teenagers who try to seek for their real selves5．The author doesn’t prefer rebelling teenagers _______.A．walking a new way on their ownB．always turning to friends for helpC．growing away from parentsD．following others blindly6．The phrase “larger cocoon” at the end of the second paragraph refers to _______.A．the care and love from parentsB．the popular trend in the societyC．the present teenage marketD．the fantastic music world7．According to the author, what might happen when a teenager follows his/her own path?A．He/She gets larger collection.B．He/She gains valuable popularity.C．He/She shares fresh thoughts with classmates.D．He/She loses good friends.     I grew up in a small village, where I saw girls aged five or six, carrying younger siblings, and begging on the streets for food. They were dirty, and wore clothes that were little more than rags. I wondered, why their parents would not give them enough to eat, till I was told that their parents probably gave them all they had, and went hungry themselves. They lived in hovels, and often while the older children begged, the younger ones were asleep on the roadside.As I grew up, and left the village to pursue my studies in a bigger town, these images stayed with me. However, to my dismay, I found that there were more such beggars there, than I had seen in my village. It struck me then, that I lived in a poor country where poverty was a curse suffered by large numbers of the population. It was at this stage of my life, that I made up my mind to do my bit to ease the pain of these poor, unfortunate people. My parents were happy to see that I felt so much sympathy for those less fortunate than me, and encouraged me to do small things like offering food, sweets or clothes to poor people nearby on my birthday, instead of having a party for my friends. Fortunately, my school too was at the forefront of social work, involving educating those who did not have the means to go to a proper school. We students, were taken to nearby rural areas, to stay with the villagers and understand their problems. We also sometimes helped the younger children with their homework, and encouraged them never to stop their schooling, because many children are forced to stop going to school, and instead help their parents out in small jobs. As I graduated from high school, I realized that the means to end poverty was education. I found that poor children were less healthy, and more prone to disease than their peers in more advantaged homes.8．At first the author may believe the parents of the poor kids are ________.A．less fortunate B．cruel to little childrenC．too busy with their work D．living badly off9．From the passage we can conclude the author is ________.A．hard—working and determined B．regretful and disappointedC．well---educated and optimistic D．merciful and warmhearted10．Which is the best way to eradicate poverty?A．Investment to boost economyB．Social work by the government officialsC．Compulsory education for all childrenD．Urbanization of all rural areas11．What does the author’s school do for those who cannot continue with their schooling?A．It plays an active part in educating those dropped--out kids.B．It encourages the students to do surveys in the countryside.C．It urges the government to promote education.D．It offers food and clothes to poor people in rural areas. Orville Wright was born on August 19, 1871 in Dayton, Ohio, USA and died on January 30, 1948.

But this year, there came a new music teacher, Mr. Buttler. He heard about Emily and suggested that she have a try.Emily didn’t want to be rejected again, so she hesitated a little about it.

The focus of the festival was the wonderful performances given by students, including singing, dancing and playing various instruments. Lectures were also given about Chinese traditional music as well as foreign music, so that we could appreciate the beauty of different kinds of music. The music festival ended with a beautiful song, which is easy to dance to.The music festival was not only great fun but also gave us an opportunity to develop our understanding of music. Music is what we need in life, and more importantly, it is vital for our personal growth.47．One possible versionParagraph 1:The next day, Emily nervously glanced at the list on the door of the choral room. She was not rejected this time. Her name was at the top of the list. She was chosen to be the leading singer. She would sing in front of the line in the performance. Emily couldn’t believe her eyes. There must be some mistake. But Mr. Buttler said to her firmly, “Emily, I choose you because your voice is unusual. Believe in yourself.” Greatly encouraged, Emily practiced really hard.Paragraph 2:Finally, the day of the performance came. At the thought of standing in front of such a large audience, Emily felt her throat tight and her palms sweating.

Her voice was ringing through the auditorium. Applause! Emily felt so happy and comfortable. She was shining on the stage.
