When he opened the door, he saw a man standing witha hat in his hand. “How do you do?” said the man. “Canyou come at once to a place out of town? It’s quite far but you have a car and I can show you the way.”

“Certainly,” said the doctor. “I’m quite ready. I can come at once.” After a few minutes the car was standing at the front door, the man got into the doctor’s car, and they drove off. They drove on for a long time. Then the man said, “Here we are. This is my home. Now I can pay you and you can go back to the town.”

“I must see the patient. How can I go back without seeing the patient?”

“There is no patient,” explained the man. “Nobody is ill. I live here, you see, and one must get home from a town, mustn’t he? There are no taxis this time of the night, but a doctor often makes night calls, so excuse me. Here is money. Thank you, doctor. Good night.”

Hi Jake,

How’s it going? Sorry I haven't been in touch for a while, but couldn’t use my computer for a few days. You’ll never guess what happened to me!

A couple of weeks ago, I decided to take up yoga. Yoga is a combination of physical and breathing exercises. It's supposed to be good for relaxation and 1.. I've been feeling a

bit stressed about my school work recently and I thought yoga might help.

My dad couldn't give me a lift to the first lesson, so

I decided to 2.. The lesson was great and I felt really

relaxed afterwards. On the way home, though, it started raining

and I got very wet! The next day, I woke up with a bad cold. I

couldn't stop 3..

I couldn't go to school 4.I also had a high temperature.

We were having a math test that day so it was great that I could stay at home. I didn’t really 5., though. I felt awful and stayed in bed. Mum brought me cups of hot tea for my sore throat(and you know how much I hate tea! ). She 6.went to the chemist's and got me some vitamin pills. I have to keep taking these for a while 7.I can get stronger.

That afternoon Robbie came to visit me. He said he'd got something to 8.and pretended it was the math test that I'd missed "Mr Bank says you can do it at home instead,” he said, but I knew he was joking. I didn’t think it was very 9., but he did!

The next day, I was still a bit pale and didn’t have much energy, but I was feeling better. The day after that, I was able to go back to school.

Can you believe my luck? I went to the yoga class to feel 10.and instead I caught a cold!

Anyway, I hope you're OK. Write and let me know what you’ve been up to!

Bye for now!

If life can be compared to a meal, I think the mistakes are like salt and the success is a candy.

“Hey,”said the boy sitting next to me.“Don’t worry. Take your time.”And so I did. But I still couldn’t pronounce my Chinese name that was given by the teacher correctly. I was so embarrassed on my first day of learning Chinese!

I took Chinese classes during my summer vacation. Every morning I walked for 25 minutes to the class while having a Chinese jianbing from one of the breakfast carts(推車) on the way. Learning Spanish in school was a cushy job for me, because I could speak French and Italian which helped me with another Romance language(羅曼語). However, learning Chinese was difficult at first. As a boy who was born in America and grew up in America, I knew nothing about the language. I chose it mainly because my goal was to teach and work internationally.

As the classes went on, I slowly found that I was making connections. My 10 years of playing the piano have allowed me to perform for others. My several years of writing have led me to become a school reporter. I knew that my Chinese classes would allow me to speak Chinese well.

So what did my summer really taste like? It tasted like the Chinese food that, for the first time, I did not order in English, my mother language.

1.Why did the writer feel embarrassed in his first Chinese class?

A. Because he had no Chinese name. B. Because he forgot his Chinese name.

C. Because he had bad Chinese pronunciation. D. Because he couldn’t write his Chinese name.

2.The underlined word“cushy”means“ ”.

A. common B. funny C. popular D. easy

3.The writer’s first language is .

A. French B. English C. Italian D. Spanish

4.What does the writer mainly want to tell us in Paragraph 4?

A. He had a lot of hobbies. B. He wanted to work in China.

C. He was sure he could speak Chinese well. D. He had a talent for learning foreign languages.

5.What do we know about the writer according to the passage?

A. He is good at playing the piano. B. He doesn’t like Chinese foot at all.

C. He is interested in writing and painting. D. He wants to be a language teacher in the future.
