【題目】My name is Kenn Nesbitt and I’m a poet. I started writing poems as a hobby in 1994. At the time, I never gave any thought to publishing them; I just wrote for my own amusement. But it was so much fun that I ended up writing a lot of poems, which led me to the idea of creating a website, and at last writing books. If you want to write poems, I have some advice for you.

My ideas mostly come from my imagination. That is, I like to sit and daydream, and see what kinds of crazy things I can think up. For kids, I suggest that whenever you think of an idea, you should write it down, even if you don’t have time write them to create a whole poem from your idea. I have notebooks full of ideas that I haven’t written poems about yet. So I can always look through my notebooks and find something fun to write about.

One way to make poems interesting is to write about things readers can understand: school, family, food, pets, games, sports, and so on. To make a poem funny, I often ask myself, “What kinds of funny things might happen at school, or over dinner? What funny things might your pets do?” and it’s OK to make things up, such as having a pet elephant, or a pet that plays video games. Use your imagination and see where it leads. But the best advice I can give kids is not to just write one poem, it might be a great one, or maybe not so good. But if you write ten poems, you’ll probably find that, even though they aren’t all perfect, a few of them are much better than the others.

1Why did the author start writing poems at first?

A. To publish them. B. To entertain himself.

C. To contribute to a website. D. To kill time.

2What’s the main idea of Paragraph 2?

A. How to write poems. B. How to think up crazy things.

C. How to get ideas for poems. D. How to become creative.

3According to the author, what is the best advice he can give us?

A. Just write great poems. B. Write as many as possible.

C. Make poems as funny as possible. D. Try to make things up in your poems.

4Where does the author come from?

A. America B. China C. Germany D. not mentioned

5What’s the author’s purpose of writing the text?

A. To suggest some poems written by him.

B. To show writing poems isn’t that hard.

C. To tell readers how to write poems.

D. To explain how he writes poems.

The Best Ways to Offer Support and Encouragement

Whether it is a friend, family member, or coworker, at some time or another somebody will need support and encouragement. This could be the result of a disappointing change in life, a health change or other similar challenges. 【1】 Even if you do not think that you have the ability to offer the proper support and encouragement,your willingness to be there and to listen may be enough.

Each situation is different,and each would require different levels of both support and encouragement. 2 Helping keep up someone's spirits when they are feeling helpless just by letting them know you are there,can make a serious difference in their lives.

3 For people in this situation, often a telephone call, or dropping in to say “hello” is more than enough. You may not feel that you are doing much of anything,but to the person who is feeling isolated the effort you take to stop and see them,or call them can make a big difference. For someone who has recently lost a job,you may be able to offer support by helping them network effectively. Or, you may be able to help them craft a new resume,apply for benefits,or a number of other “small” things that may seem insignificant to you, but to them can be a very significant event.

4 However,if you let them know that you are there for them,and make it a point to check in with them regularly,they may soon feel more comfortable and share them /span>with you. Take for example a person who is suffering with depression.

5 They may not be willing to admit that there is something wrong. However,if you trust your instincts(直覺) and take a little extra care to support and encourage them even in little ways,you can make a huge difference in their overall outlook.

A. You know that there is something wrong.

B. All too often,people feel isolated and do not know where to turn.

C. So you may need support and encouragement to pull through.

D. You may not always understand all of the issues going on in someone's life.

E. In such cases,it is natural for you to reach out and offer your support and encouragement.

F. You know better than anyone the best ways to support and encourage someone who is going through a difficult time.

G. The support you offer could be as simple as helping with simple household tasks, running errands(跑腿兒),or even being available for telephone calls.

【題目】How to keep a nearly lost friendship alive

There are times when a friendship has to go through huge tests. It is a battle between staying together and moving away from each other. 1More often than not, it is pride that destroys a friendship.

Relax your pride. This is easy to say, but very difficult to do. You may ask yourself, “Why should I say sorry when he does not show any regret for what he has done?”

2If you find yourself saying any of these things, you should understand that it is your pride talking. Allowing your pride to control your feelings will leave you bitter and confused.

Talk about the problem. Face the problem calmly. 3 it may sound silly, but it could certainly heal the wounds that you have caused each other. If you avoid facing the problem, your pain will only grow. Remember, you want to keep the friendship and not worsen the problem.

Laugh about it. 4 After some time, when both of you have become calm and renewed your confidence in each other, go back to the time when you had nearly fallen apart. Laugh about your foolishness, and promise to never let pride take over your friendship.

Friendship is a valuable thing. 5Rapport(融洽的關(guān)系)is what creates a friendship. Love, understanding, acceptance and forgiveness are what lead to a long-lasting friendship.

A. Try to save your friendship.

B. It cannot be bought or demanded.

C. It is often said that laughter is the best medicine.

D. Do not wait for the other person to make the first move.

E. There are many complex reasons why a friendship falls out.

F. Write a letter and read it out loud to the other person.

G. You may also say, “I have not done anything wrong, and I don’t want to say sorry.”
