I remember the first time I got on a horse. When I was a little boy aged two, my mom agreed to let me take a short ride and that was it! From then on, I drove my parents crazy begging for a horse.
When I was four, I had mutism, in which children stop speaking in certain social situations. I went days, weeks, months without a sound at school. At most, I might quietly whisper to a friend. I suffered silently through school until I was ten when a psychologist had an idea. He asked me what I wanted more than anything else in the world. He explained I was going to be given an opportunity to work for that. And I was permitted to whisper the answer in my mother's ear, “A horse.”
I was to get a pony, but I had to live up to my end of the bargain. I had a chart of weekly tasks I had to accomplish. I had to answer the phone five times per week, something I had never done before. I had to say one word to my teacher at school and the list went on. For a child with mutism, saying one word to someone can be like climbing Mount Qomolangma. I did everything that was asked of me and the day came. His name was Sequoia, whom I fell in love with immediately. When I was in Sequoia's presence, I forgot all about my problems and felt strong and secure.
I am a fully participating member of society these days. My horse and I made it through a master's degree. I may have made it otherwise, but I'm not sure. I feel I owe my life to the horse and I try to give it back to him every day. He has given me the best gift I could ever imagine, my life.

A．He didn't say a word at all.

D．He had difficulty in communicating.

7.What is the author's purpose of writing the text?

B．To give tips on how to cure mutism.
C．To show his deep gratefulness to his horse.
D．To inspire kids struggling against mutism.

Heritage is our legacy (遗产) from the past, what we live with today, and what we pass on to future generations. Our cultural and natural heritage are both irreplaceable (无可取代的) sources of life and inspiration. Places as unique and diverse as the Pyramids of Egypt, the Great Barrier Reef in Australia and the Great Wall of China make up our world's heritage.
The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) seeks to encourage the identification, protection and preservation of cultural and natural heritage around the world considered to be of outstanding value to humanity. This is embodied in an international treaty called the Convention Concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage, adopted by UNESCO in 1972.
How does a place become a World Heritage Site? It takes a lot of people to decide.
1)If a country wants one of its places to be on the World Heritage List, it has to ask UNESCO. The place must be important and special. UNESCO put the Great Wall on the list in 1987 because, it said, it was a great part of Chinese culture and beautifully made to go with the land. When a country asks, it must also make a plan for taking care of the place.
2)The World Heritage Committee of UNESCO talks about different places and decides whether to put them on the list. The committee meets every June. Many experts help the committee to decide.
3)After a new place goes on the list, UNESCO gives money to help keep it looking good. If a place is in serious danger, it may be put on the List of World Heritage Sites in Danger. UNESCO gives special care and help to those places.
4)Countries have to give UNESCO regular reports about places on the list. If UNESCO thinks a country isn't taking good enough care of a place, the site will be taken off the list.
8．What is the main purpose of Paragraph 1?
A．To tell us what is heritage.
B．To stress the importance of heritages.
C．To explain the aims of protecting heritages.
D．To introduce some places of interest in the world.
9．About cultural and natural heritage around the world, UNESCO encourages all the following EXCEPT ________.
A．identification B．application C．protection D．conservation
10．If a place successfully becomes a World Heritage Site, the country ________.
A．can ask UNESCO for more money and help
B．should continue to take special care of it
C．won't take trouble of caring for it
D．will try to put it on the List of World Heritage Sites in Danger
11．The purpose of putting a place on the World Heritage List is ________.
A．to attract more tourists from other countries
B．to get more money and help from other countries
C．to have it taken better care of
D．to make it known to other countries
D
Every year in America, high­school students who want to go on to college take a national examination called the Scholastic Aptitude Test, or SAT for short. Their score is an important factor in determining which colleges will admit them. The Scholastic Aptitude Test measures one's mathematical ability and use of the English language. Traditionally, the English part involved grammatical questions and paragraphs that test reading comprehension.
But the SAT folks have added a single question, to be answered in an essay, handwritten on the spot. That's an interesting way to test writing ability, but content aside. Have you ever seen young people's handwriting lately? Or anyone's for that matter, in this age of computer keyboards? Students write numbers and sign their names on bank checks. They scribble class notes in what can generously be described as the written word.
Yet today's kids are asked to write, thoughtfully and clearly, for several minutes on this SAT test. Good luck to the text scorers who must work out difficultly the scrawl (潦草的笔迹) of young people who've been typing on computers since the age of three! Teachers insist that good handwriting can not only help one's score on the SAT, but also, later on in life, impress potential employers. And don't forget, we all have to use handwriting from time to time, as computers go down when the power goes out.
Then how to improve the handwriting? Well, with a few simple steps you can improve your handwriting. Position the pen. You should hold the pen between the forefinger and the thumb. You should then rest it near the first knuckle (指节) of the middle finger. The rest of your fingers should be curled (卷曲) under your hand and your hand should remain relaxed.
Evaluate your writing. What do you like and what don't you like about the way you write? Make changes to your letters till you like how they look.
Take your time. Make sure that, while you are writing, you take your time. Speed can definitely make your writing terrible. If it is worth writing well, then take your time.
Practice. Practice it a lot; it's not enough to do it once and hope for the best. It has to be something you work at to make great improvements.
12．At present, the SAT tests students on ________.
A．math, English, reading and writing
B．math, grammar, reading and handwriting
C．math, foreign language and writing
D．math, foreign language and handwriting
13．The underlined word “scribble” in Paragraph 2 probably means ________.
A．writing quickly and roughly
B．typing simply and correctly
C．painting clearly and neatly
D．describing properly and well
14．According to the text, good handwriting can ________.
A．help students pass the test
B．make a student more popular
C．show students' ability
D．assist students in getting a job
15．The author mainly wants to tell us that ________.
A．writing seems to be very important in the SAT
B．those who will go to college have to take the SAT
C．students should practice handwriting more often
D．kids don't know how to write in the computer age

But when I get there Nelson Mandela was also there and he helped me. Mr. Mandela began a school for those of us who had few learning. He taught us during the lunch breaks and the evening when we should have been asleep. We read books under our blankets and used anything we could find make candles to see the words.

写作答案：
Dear Sara,
I have received and read your letter, in which you mentioned that you wanted to lose weight by dieting.
It is only natural that young girls at your age hope to look beautiful. However, in my opinion, health is more important than beauty. If a person has lost his health, whether physically or mentally, chances are that he will be anxious and depressed, not to mention of aiming to work hard. What’s more, for a student, studying is the first task to do while appearance is the second, so don’t let others’ opinions affect your normal life. However, if you want to lose weight, it is a good idea to do it by taking more exercise and changing unhealthy eating habits. The most important thing is that you keep a healthy state of mind as it will help with your study, and will also help you overcome difficulties in dieting.
I hope my advice will be helpful to you and I’m looking forward to your next letter.
Yours,
Li Hua
