Dear Daughter,
As we drove off from Columbia, I wanted to write to tell you all that is on my mind.
First, I want to tell you how proud we are. Getting into Columbia is a real testament(證明) of what a great well-rounded student you are. You should be as proud of yourself as we are.
Your college years will be the most important of your life. It is in college that you will discover what learning is about. This will be the period when you go from teacher taught to master inspired, after which you must become a self-learner. So do take each subject seriously, and even if what you learn is of no practical use in real life, the learning skills you get will be something you will value forever.
Follow your passion in college. Take courses you think you will enjoy. Don’t be bothered by what others think or say, but make up your own mind. Most importantly, make true friends and be happy. Don’t worry abut their hobbies, grades, looks, or even personalities.
Start planning early what you’d like to do. Where would you like to live? What would you like to learn? I think your plan to study fashion is good, and you should decide where you want to be, and get onto the right courses. I will always be there for you, but the time has come for you to be in the driver’s seat--this is your life, and you need to be in control. Being in control feels great. Try it, and you’ll love it!
So please treasure your college years--make the best use of your free time, become an independent thinker in control of your destiny, and learn through your successes and challenges.
May your years at Columbia be the happiest of your life, and may you grow into just what you dream to be.
Love

Hans was an honest fellow with a funny round good-humored face. Living alone, every day he worked in his garden. In all the countryside there was no garden so lovely as his. All sorts of flowers grew there, blooming in their proper order as the months went by, one flower taking another flower’s place, so that there were always beautiful things to see, and pleasant odors to smell.
Hans had many friends, the most devoted being the Miller. So devoted was the rich Miller to Hans that he’d never go by his garden without plucking a large bunch of flowers or a handful of sweet herbs, or filling his pockets with fruits. The Miller used to talk about noble ideas, and Hans nodded and smiled, feeling proud of having such a friend.
The neighbors thought it strange that the rich Miller never gave Hans anything in return, though he had hundreds of sacks of flour, many cows and sheep, but Hans never troubled his head about these, and nothing gave him greater pleasure than to listen to all the wonderful things about the unselfishness of true friendship.
In spring, summer, and autumn Hans was very happy, but when winter came, and he had no fruit or flowers to sell, he suffered from cold and hunger. Though extremely lonely, the Miller never came to see him then.
“There’s no good in going to see Hans while the snow lasts.” The Miller said to his wife, “When people are in trouble they shouldn’t be bothered. So I’ll wait till the spring comes when he’s happy to give me flowers.”
“You’re certainly very thoughtful,” answered his wife, “It’s quite a treat to hear you talk about friendship.”
“Couldn’t we ask Hans up here?” said their son. “I’ll give him half my meal, and show him my white rabbits.”
“How silly you are!” cried the Miller. “I really don’t know what’s the use of sending you to school. If Hans came up here, and saw our warm fire, our good supper, and our red wine, he might get envious, and envy is a most terrible thing, and would spoil anybody’s nature. I am his best friend, and I’ll always watch over him, and see that he’s not led into any temptation. Besides, if Hans came here, he might ask me for some flour. Flour is one thing, and friendship is another, and they shouldn’t be confused. The words are spelt differently, and mean quite different things. Everybody can see that.” He looked seriously at his son, who felt so ashamed that he hung his head down, and grew quite scared, and began to cry into his tea.
Spring coming, the Miller went down to see Hans. Again he talked about friendship. “Hans, friendship never forgets. I’m afraid you don’t understand the poetry of life. See, how lovely your roses are!”
Hans said he wanted to sell them in the market to buy back his things which were sold during the hard time of the winter.
“I’ll give you many good things. I think being generous is the base of friendship.” said the Miller. “And now, as I’ll give you many good things, I’m sure you’d like to give me some flowers in return. Here’s the basket, and fill it quite full.”
Poor Hans was afraid to say anything. He ran and plucked all his pretty roses, and filled the Miller’s basket, imagining the many good things promised by the Miller.
The next day he heard the Miller calling: “Hans, would you mind carrying this sack of flour for me to market?”
“I’m sorry, but I am really very busy today.”
“Well,” said the Miller, “considering that I’m going to give you my things, it’s rather unfriendly of you to refuse. Upon my word, you mustn’t mind my speaking quite plainly to you.”
Poor Hans was driven by his friendship theory to work hard for his best friend, leaving his garden dry and wasted.
One evening Hans was sitting by fire when the Miller came.
“Hans,” cried the Miller, “My little boy has fallen off a ladder and hurt himself, and I’m going for the Doctor. But he lives so far away, and it’s such a bad windy night. It has just occurred to me that you can go instead of me. You know I’m going to give you my good things, so you should do something for me in return.”
“Certainly,” cried Hans. He struggled into the stormy night, and got the doctor to ride a horse to the Miller’s house in time to save the boy. However, Hans got lost in the darkness, and wandered off into a deep pool, drowned.
At Hans’ funeral, the Miller said, “I was his best friend. I should walk at the head of the procession.” Every now and then he wiped his eyes with a handkerchief.

A．was extremely wise and noble
B．was highly valued by the Miller

Every American family has its own traditions on Thanksgiving Day, and mine is no difference. Once the national holiday arrives, my mom rises early to make the meal. She puts a turkey in the oven, chops carrots and bakes pies. I’m sorry to say that the men in the family – my dad, my younger brother and myself – rarely pitch in to help. Our job is to wash the mountain of dirty dishes after the meal is over.
Around 2 pm every Thanksgiving Day, family members seat themselves around the kitchen table. Plates of turkey, vegetables, salad, rolls and pies cover it. At this point, we can hardly keep ourselves from drooling (流口水) all over our fancy clothes, but it’s not yet time to eat.
First, we must bow our heads, close our eyes and say a prayer of thanks aloud to God for giving us everything we have. Under normal circumstances, I would have no problem making a list of things I am thankful for. I grew up in a loving family. My parents, who aren’t wealthy, took out loans to help me pay for university.
But, the funny thing is, every time I sit down for Thanksgiving dinner and try to say a prayer of thanks, my mind usually goes blank. I think it has something to do with my growling (咕咕叫) stomach and all of that food sitting right there under my nose.
Eventually, though, we all finish our short prayers and dig in. To be sure, the day includes other highlights – visiting with family and watching football. But usually around 6 pm we are all ourselves stuffed like turkeys and thankful to have a nice warm bed to sleep in.
1.The purpose of the text is to ________.
A．tell what the family do for Thanksgiving Day
B．tell how the family spends Thanksgiving Day
C．introduce foods served on Thanksgiving Day
D．introduce the American Thanksgiving Day
2.On Thanksgiving Day the author’s family do the following except ________.
A．watching a movie B．making visits
C．having a big meal D．watching football
3.Why does the author’s mind usually “go blank” when saying a prayer of thanks?
A．He is too thankful to say a word. B．His mind is on the food before him.
C．He feels too excited to speak. D．He is shy to speak in public.
4.The underlined phrase “dig in” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to “________”.
A．chat with others B．make a hole
C．mix things up D．start eating

The influence of America is increasing in my country.
Spanish people drink Coca Cola, wear blue jeans, watch Hollywood movies, listen
to American music, and eat fast food, and they do these things every day.
I think that American movies
are a good way to spread American culture because people are often influenced
by what they see in the movies. Most of the programs and documentaries (紀錄片) we watch on TV are from America,
and most of the movies we go to see are made in Hollywood.
In the last few years, the
government has tried to protect the Spanish movies. Now, in our cinemas, at
least twenty percent of the movies which are shown must be from Spain or from
other countries in Europe.
American culture is a
part of Spanish life now. It’s certain that many things from America are as
much a part of people’s lives as Spanish things. For example, Coca Cola is as
familiar to everybody as any typical Spanish product. I’ve known about Coca
Cola for my whole life.
However, it’s different
with Western fast food. For example, I don’t think McDonald’s is as successful
in Spain as it is in other countries. In my opinion, one of the reasons may be
the lifestyle of the Spanish people. The Spanish people normally eat at home.
On the other hand,
maybe McDonald’s hamburgers will eventually replace the famous Spanish tapas.
It’s true that in every city in Spain you can find a McDonald’s, and it is more
popular among the Spanish children than among the adults. In any case, it’s
obvious that American culture is becoming more and more a part of our lives
every day.
1.From
the first paragraph we can know that ____.
A. the influence of America on Spain can be found
everywhere
B. most Spanish people don’t like to listen to their
own music
C. fast food spreads from Spain to the United States
D. some Spanish actors go to America to improve their
acting skills
2.Why
did the government set some rules for the films shown in Spain?
_________.
A. To protect foreign culture in Spain.
B. To earn more money from Spanish films.
C. To limit the number of foreign movies.
D. To unite the European Community.
3.Why
does the author think that McDonald’s is not as successful as it is in other
countries? ______
A. Its fast food contains too much fat.
B. He thinks it is unhealthy.
C. Spanish people seldom eat out.
D. Spanish adults don’t like its fast food.

As I understand, if scientists produced a human clone, there would be a great risk of it having a disease. Nobody seems to understand the ageing process of a clone. It would be terrible if a baby was the age of its parent at 31 . Its cells would grow old fast and it would die young. 32 until the technique is perfectly safe, it should be 33 .
I'd love to have a clone of 34 . I often wish I had a twin sister, someone who 35 me in everything. So why not a clone? Well, the idea 36 be fun but I'm not sure if it would be 37 . I think we would be playing with fire if we let scientists go ahead with 38 cloning. There are so many 39
involved that all research in this area should be strictly controlled.
There are so many arguments 40 cloning that it is difficult to get anyone to consider the possible benefits. I am 41 that it is a technique which could be beneficial. The most obvious use would be for childless 42 . They would be able to have babies with their own genetic material. I don't see what's wrong with that.
Imagine a child 43 up knowing that his or her mother is really a sister or a brother. The emotional 44 on the child would be 45 . Or a child who was cloned from a dead brother or sister. What kind of emotional pressure would they feel, knowing they were made as a replacement for another? The whole idea
46 me!
It's all very good to ban human cloning but scientists should be allowed to 47
research. If they don't, we may 48 important benefits for our society, such as producing body organs. A clone is an 49 copy of a person with the same gene. Therefore, it is the 50 donor for an organ(器官) transplant.
