【題目】I created a writing group at my school this year, and it has become a hit with all students who enjoy writing. Now students of the group make rapid progress in their writing. Let me share a few tips that you can use to start your own writing group.

Set up separate groups for different ability levels

You probably don’t want to mix a gifted eighth grader with a second grader who writes very little. In a larger school, you could have a beginner group, a more advanced group, and a publishing group. Members can move to more appropriate groups if they are not comfortable in the current one.

Advertise the group in different ways

Send advertisements home with students, and put an advertisement on the school website or in the school newsletter.

The first meeting should be very open

At the first meeting, you should tell the students that this group is all about them. It is not a class, not a grade and not a requirement. Then tell them what some other writing groups do, and ask what they would like to do.

Set up a time to meet once or twice a month

It is important that students bring their writing with them. The group could go in any direction: criticize each other’s work, read your writing aloud, read silently, publish your work in a booklet (小冊子), play creativity games or do an online chat with a published author.

It will take a little while to find out what works best for your group

Search for creativity exercises and role plays. You might even be able to set up a special section of your school’s website just for your writing group.

Dear Alice,

I have just got a good news to tell you. I win a national prize for painting last week. My father was so pleasing that he suggested I go to England for a holiday. I’d like to staying there for half a month, visiting place of interest and practicing my English as well. We’ve been written to each other for nearly a year now. I have often dreamed of talk face to face with you . I imagine you’ll be at vacation yourself by that time. Perhaps you will go out do some sightseeing together.

Best, Lily

If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows this, and nobody would think of questioning this fact. 【1】 When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by exercising it regularly, either consciously or unconsciously. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough opportunity to become strong. 2 One of them exercises his arms and legs by playing tennis, while the other sits in a chair or a motor car all day.

If a friend complains that his arms are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame, or that he is just unlucky, and few of us realize that it is just as much his own fault as if it was his arms or legs that were weak.3 But all of us can, if we have ordinary bodies and brains, improve our strength and our memory by the same means— practice.

Have you ever noticed that people who cannot read or write usually have better memories than those who can? 4 It’s because those who cannot read or write have to remember things. They cannot write them down in a little notebook and they have to remember dates, time and prices, names, songs and stories, so their memory is being exercised the whole time 5 .

A. What do you think of it?

B. Yet many people do not seem to know that the memory works in the same way.

C. Not all of us can become extremely strong or extremely clever.

D. So if you want a good memory, practice remembering.

E. Someone else says that he is poor in health.

F. Why is this?

G. The position is exactly the same as that of two people.

【題目】Juac has made the leap from being an African refugee (難民) to a chess champion in the United States. His job is to share his expertise(專長) with students in schools, chess camps and other events.

During Sudan's civil war in the mid-1980s, Juac was forced out of the country with 20,000 0ther so -called Lost Boys. He fled to Ethiopia, then to Kenya staying in a refugee camp for eight years, where he learned to play chess.

Juac described a dangerous journey in which half the boys didn't survive. To eat, they had to kill wild animals.

"There were animals on the way. It was about a thousand miles and sometimes there was no water. When we were in Ethiopia, we had to cross the river and there a lot drowned."

Juac arrived in the United States in 2004 and began working as a security guard. Winning a chess tournament gave him this teaching opportunity. Juac believes chess helps prepare young people for life.

"Some kids are not interested, so it's your job to make them like the game, to explain them what chess is going to help them with." He said. "Like, I can tell, this game will give you patience, and help with your math skills."

Julie Cathone, a second grade teacher in Jackson Public School, agrees. The School's principal, Meghan Kelley, said Juac and chess have made a big difference.

"What a role model. I mean when you think about just overcoming, and finding what you love and turning that into your life's work."

Juac said he enjoys the freedom he has in the United States. But his passion is playing and teaching chess to youngsters. His boss, Michael Propper , said Juac has one great advantage.

"I think he's believable. I think they look at him and he's so unassuming that they feel like they can do what he's doing and be a person as he is too."

Ju ac still has a big goal ahead of him-becoming an international chess master. With his skill and patience, Propper and his peers have no doubt that will happen.

【1How long did Juac most probably stay in Ethiopia?

A. About six years. B. About eight years.

C. About twelve years. D. About sixteen years.

【2】We can learn from the passage that Juac _

A. must be teaching kids chess for free

B. is patient and good at math problems

C. surely has his own chess school in American

D. hasn't taken part in international chess contests

【3The underlined word "unassuming" probably means __

A. not appear important B. seem to be very great

C. appear very charming D. be not strict or serious

【4】Which is the best title for this passage?

A. "Lost Boys" Experienced Difficult Times.

B. Former Sudan "Lost Boy" Appears in NYC.

C. Former Sudan “Lost Boy" Becomes Chess Master.

D. African Boy Is Teaching Chess in the United States.
