It’s Really a Miracle

Mr. Brown works in New York and he brought his family to China last summer. They visited many places of interest and had a good time here. Before they left for New York, the Browns climbed the Great Wall. It was the greatest project over two thousand years ago. They took a lot of photos there and then they had a picnic under a big tree. Suddenly it began to rain and they hurried to the car. And when they returned to the hotel, they couldn’t find the bag in which their expensive camera was. They were all sorry for it. They could buy another camera but had no time to go to the Great Wall again. They could not miss the plane!

That evening they didn’t have supper. Mr. Brown hoped to make them happy, so he said, “Well, let me tell you a story. An old man lived in a sixty-floor building. One day he fell down from it when he was cleaning the window. But he didn’t hurt himself.”

“It was a miracle!” called out his children, “Why?”

“Because he lived on the first floor!”

They all began to laugh while two policemen with a bag came in. They said a Chinese boy found it under a big tree and he asked them to find out who lost it.

“It’s really a miracle!” the Browns said happily.

以下是Mary寫給學(xué)校心理輔導(dǎo)老師Ms Wang 的一封信.請你以Ms Wang的身份給她回一封80詞左右的信，幫助她解決問題.

Dear Ms Wang

My name is Mary. I’m a student in Class 1， Grade 9. I’m writing to you about my problem and I hope you can give me some advice.

The High School Entrance Exam is coming， but I’m very nervous recently. The main reason is that I did seriously bad in the exam in April.

I used to be very happy because I did well in my lessons. However， after the exam， I realize that there are a lot of difficult problems that I can’t solve. I want to overcome them in a short time. I can’t eat well. Even worse， I stay up late every day and sleep less and less. As a result of that， I feel sleepy and can’t focus my attention on what my teachers say in class. I feel very low. What can I do to get myself back?

Thank you. I’m looking forward to your reply.

Best wishes.

Yours Mary.

Customs on Eating

Food in China and western countries is different. China has about 5,000 years’ history. They may spend half of their time on food. Chinese people choose food very carefully. They only use fresh materials（新鮮的材料）to make food. For example, they only eat fresh fish. Chinese have a lot of ideas for cooking. They can cook a chicken in over ten ways. That’s why Chinese food is so popular around the world. Western countries, like England or America, don’t have fresh food because they buy their food from supermarkets which only sell stored materials (儲存的材料). Western people also prefer fast food like hamburgers and chips. They are unhealthy for man’s body. Western people do not have many skills for cooking, mostly they only boil, steam (蒸) and bake the food. By the way, western people are very good at making desserts and chocolate. They can make very good cakes and chocolate. These food are very sweet and they can make you become fat quickly.

In China, the person who invites other people for meal would pay for the meal, but it’s not the same way in western countries. In western countries, people will think you only invite them but don’t need to pay for them. They can afford it. They won’t be happy if you pay for them. In western countries like America or England, people will always give tips (小費(fèi)) to the waiter after they finish the meal in a restaurant. If you don’t, the waiter will not be happy. In China this only happens in some top restaurants and hotels in large cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou.

Another difference in eating is that: Chinese people use chopsticks and western people use knives and forks.

Chinese people only have three meals during a day. But western people may have more. They usually have afternoon tea when they would have fruit, cakes or biscuits with cheese (奶酪餅干).

_________________________________________________________________________

2.Why is Chinese food so popular in the world?

_________________________________________________________________________

閱讀表達(dá)，閱讀下面的短文并用英語回答問題，并將答案寫在答題卡標(biāo)有題號的橫線上。

Linda Edwards was full of happiness because her lost cat Spas was returned to her 12 years after he went missing!

Spas went missing in 2002 and Edwards looked for him every day for three months. She searched all around her town and even wrote letters to some newspapers for help. But she was never able to find him. At the end of the three months，her search stopped.

But someone recently discovered a dirty, thin stray(流浪的;走失的)cat in the street and took him into West Flamingo Animal Hospital. The people working in the hospital checked the cat and were sure enough that his name was Spas and he belonged to Linda Edwards!

"An old lady found the cat on Sunday and brought him here. We scanned(掃描)his microchip(微芯片)and we were able to find out his owner. The cat, whose name is Spas, has been missing for 12 years! " said a doctor.

It is a way to recognize pets by scanning their microchips if the stray animals belong to anyone who could be missing them. It also allows animal services to know if the animals have a family waiting for them. Linda was very thankful that she had Spas taken the microchip and was so excited to get him back!

"I have a second chance to play with my cat，" she said. "This would never have happened if there were no microchips. "

1.Who took the cat to the animal hospital?

2.How did the animal hospital know the owner?

3.If you have a pet，will you have your pet taken the microchip? Why or why not?
