    Everybody will have some health problems. Here are Mr. Black's problems and his doctor's advice. I hope they can help you.

Mr. Black's problems

My name is David Black. I live in a small house. I never go out when the weather is cold or hot, because I am worried I'll have a cold. I don't go out often because I don't want to talk with others.

I often have a headache but I don't want to see a doctor. What should I do?

Dr. Smith's advice

Traditional Chinese doctors believe we need a balance of yin and yang to be healthy.

    Last Friday, a storm swept through two villages in the south of the USA, destroying(摧毁) fourteen homes. Seven others were so badly damaged(破坏) that their owners have to leave them, and fifteen others had broken windows or roofs. One person was killed, several persons were badly hurt and taken to hospital, and a number of other people received smaller hurt. Altogether (总共) over two hundred people were homeless after the storm.

A farmer, Mr. Tan, said that the storm began early in the morning and lasted for over an hour.

“I was eating with my wife and children,” he said, “When we heard a loud noise, a few minutes later our house fell down on top of us. We tried our best to climb out but then I saw that one of my children was missing. I went back inside and found him safe but very frightened.”

Mrs. Wu said that her husband had just left for work when she felt that her house was moving. She ran outside at once with her children.

“There was no time to take anything," she said, "A few minutes later, the roof came down.”

Soldiers helped to take people out of the flooded area (洪水区) and the welfare department（福利机构）brought them food, clothes and shelter（避难所）.

46．Thirty-six homes altogether were damaged in the storm．

47．Mr. Tan was outside the house when the storm first began.

48．Mrs. Wu and her family didn’t get hurt because they were all outside the house when the storm started.

八、阅读还原5选5

Dear Miss Li,

I’d like to thank you for giving money to Animal Helpers. I’m sure you know that this group was set up to help disabled people like me. You helped to make it possible for me to have Lucky.

51． Let me tell you my story.

52． Or imagine you can’t walk or use your hands easily. Most people would never think about this, but many people have these difficulties. I can’t use my arms or legs well, so normal things like answering the telephone, opening and closing doors, or carrying things are difficult for me. 53． She talked to Animal Helpers about getting me a special trained dog. She also thought a dog might cheer me up. I love animals and I was excited about the idea of having a dog.

After six months of training with a dog at Animal Helpers, I was able to bring him home. My dog’s name is Lucky—a good name for him because I feel very lucky to have him. You see, I’m only able to have a “dog helper” because of your kindness! Lucky is very clever and understands many English words. 54． For example, I say, “Lucky! Get my book,” and he does it at once.

Lucky is a fantastic dog. I’ll send you a photo of him if you like, and I could show you how he helps me. 55．

Best wishes,

Ben Smith

九、阅读回答问题

    Lucy is a 15-year-old girl. Although she often gets good grades at school. She doesn’t have any friends. She is worried about this, so she writes to her uncle. Here is her uncle’s reply.

Dear Lucy,

I know you are not a shy girl. Maybe you’ve just spent too much time on your study. Here is some advice for you to make more friends.

Spend more time with people. Friends seldom come to knock on your door while you are sitting at home playing computer games. You should try to talk with others first and play with them.

Join a sports team. As long as you enjoy a sport, joining a team can be a great way to make new friends. But you should know that joining a sports team isn’t the only way. If you can play instruments or sing, try joining a band.

Be a good listener. Listen carefully when others are speaking, and remember the important points about it. This shows that you’re interested in others.

Keep in contact (联系) with friends. Many people often lose contact with their friends, because they are either too busy or just don’t value (重视) them enough. If you don’t keep in contact with your friends often, you will lose them.

I hope my advice can help you. Good luck!

                                                            Yours,

                                                                Uncle

Live a Healthy Life

It’s true that we can do many things when we are very rich. But we can never buy our health. Health is the most important part of our life.

However, there are still some bad habits in our life. Many people always stay up too late and can’t get up early in the morning. They also don’t eat meals on time and like eating junk food. Some people don’t like doing exercise. These are all bad for our health. So, in order to keep healthy, we should keep a good mood. And we should enough sleep. We should also develop a good eating habit. Meanwhile, we can try to do more outdoor activities, which are good for both our body and mind.
