【答案】
Dear Tom,
How nice to hear from you! In the letter you’ve mentioned that the excessive use of mobile phone made a negative impact on your study and that you are not allowed to use it anymore. I feel sorry about your situation. And here is some advice to help persuade your parents.
Despite its disadvantages, mobile phones have already become a necessity in our daily life. First, using the cell phone is much more convenient to contact with parents and friends in an emergency. In addition, mobile devices provide us with the possibilities to search for information whenever and wherever we want. Finally, students could download apps on the phones, which offers them a chance for entertainment after long-time learning.
In my opinion, what’s more important for you is to use the cell phones reasonably. As it is said, use your cell phone and don't let it use you.
I’m looking forward to your reply.
Yours, Li Hua

【題目】
San Francisco has its cable cars. Seattle has its Space needle. And, Longview has its squirrel(松鼠) bridge. The bridge, which has attracted international attention, is now a local landmark.
The Nutty Narrows Bridge was built in 1963 by a local builder, Amos Peters, to give squirrels a way to cross the busy road without getting flattened by passing cars.
The original bridge was built over Olympia Way on the west edge of the library grounds. Before the bridge was built, squirrels had to avoid traffic to and from the Park Plaza office building where office staff put out a nutty feast for the squirrels. Many times, Peters and others who worked in and near Park Plaza witnessed squirrels being run over.
One day Peters found a dead squirrel with a nut still in its mouth and that day’s coffee break discussion turned into squirrel safety. The group of businessmen cooked up the squirrel bridge idea and formed a committee to ask the blessing of the City Council(市政會). The council approved, and Council woman Bess LaRiviere jokingly named the bridge “Nutty Narrows”.
After architects designed the bridge, Amos Peters and Bill Hutch started construction. They built the 60-foot bridge from aluminum(鋁) and lengths of fire hose(消防水帶). It cost $1,000. It didn’t take long before reports of squirrels using the bridge started. Squirrels were even seen guiding their young and teaching them the ropes. The story was picked up by the media, and Nutty Narrows became known in newspapers all over the world.
In 1983, after 20
Peters died in 1984, and a ten-foot wooden squirrel sculpture was placed near the bridge in memory of its builder and his devotion to the project.
【1】The underlined words “getting flattened” in the second paragraph mean “being______”.
A. killed B. guided C. stolen D. raised
【2】The Nutty Narrows Bridge was built to _______.
A. Provide drivers convenient way to pass
B. Honor the builder named Bess LaRiviere
C. Spread 60-foot fire hose
D. Help squirrels cross the highway
【3】The rebuilding of the bridge was because_______.
A. it was made of wood

If you're looking for a challenging situation to practice your English, pick up the phone. Not being able to see the other person and the body language can make the chatting difficult. __【1】__ Here are some tips to guide you through an average phone conversation in English.
1.Greetings

3.Interrupting without offence
Sometimes you may happen to be speaking with a very talkative person. __【4】__ Keep in mind when you'd like to interrupt, and be sure to do it politely. For example, begin with “I'd like to say something here”.
4.Closing the call
This can be the trickiest part of the conversation! It may be the time to offer good wishes if it's appropriate. _【5】__ Sometimes it's easiest to just say you enjoyed speaking to the other person. Also remember cleverly saying the word well at the beginning of a sentence can indicate you're ready to end the conversation.
A.Use the phrase “I'm just calling to...” to change to the topic at hand.
B.Additionally, you may want to confirm any plans you've made.
C.You should make a little small talk at the beginning.

【題目】America used to have a strong college education system for prison inmates (prisoners). It was seen as a way to rehabilitate men and women in prison by helping them go straight when they got out.
Those taxpayer-supported college classes were put to an end in the 1990s. But New York Governor Andrew Cuomo would like to bring them back in the state, setting off a fierce new debate.
A number of lawmakers in New York have promised to kill Cuomo’s proposal (提議).
Cuomo says reintroducing taxpayer-funded college classes in New York’s prisons is a common-sense plan that will reduce the number of inmates who commit new crimes.
“You pay $ 60,000 for a prison cell for a year,” Cuomo responded. “You put a guy away for 10 years, and that’s $600,000. Right now, chances are almost half. Once he’s set free, he’s going to come right back.”
Cuomo says helping inmates get a college education would cost about $ 5,000 a year per person. He argues, “It’s a small amount of money if it keeps that inmate from bouncing back into prison.”
But even some members of the governor’s own party hate this idea. State Assemblywoman Addie Russell, whose upstate district includes three state prisons, says taxpayers just won’t stand for inmates getting a free college education, while middle-class families struggle to pay for their kids’ college fees.
“That is the vast majority of feedback (反饋) that I’m also getting from my constituents (選民),” she says. “You know, ‘Where is the relief for the rest of the population who obey the law ?’ ”
“I was very disappointed that the policy had been changed,” says Gerald Gaes, who served as an expert on college programs for the Federal Bureau of Prisons in the 1990s. In 1994, President Clinton stopped federal student aid programs for inmates.
Gaes says research shows that college classes actually save taxpayers’ money over time, by reducing the number of inmates who break the law and wind up back in those expensive prison cells.
“It is cost-effective,” he says. “Designing prisons that way will have a long-term benefit for New York State.”
【1】The underlined word “rehabilitate” probably means “ ”.
A.let people know more about prisoners.
B.help someone have a normal life again.
C.a(chǎn)llow prisoners to experience the world.
D.encourage someone to help other people.
【2】What is the debate about ?
A.Lawmakers’ rights in New York.
B.College classes for New York’s citizens.
C.Higher education in New York’s prisons.
D.Punishments given to New York’s criminals.
【3】Cuomo does the calculations to prove .
A.a(chǎn)lmost half of prisoners are likely to come back into prison.
B.college classes for inmates can save taxpayers’ money.
C.the costs of running prisons in the US are on the rise.
D.it is very difficult to reduce the number of inmates.
【4】Most of Russell’s constituents believe Cuomo’s proposal .
A.is unfair to middle-class families.
B.will benefit citizens obeying laws.
C.will be useless for improving prisons.
D.is based on most taxpayers’ feedback.
