A Letter to One’s Teacher

780 Changan Street,

Beijing

June 21, 2008

Dear Mr. Wang,

Your letter of June 17 reached me this morning as a pleasant surprise. I had been missing you all the time, dear teacher. Glad to know that you are planning to come to

Beijing for a visit this summer. I eagerly look forward to seeing you as soon as possible.

My college will soon start a magazine, of which I have been made one of the assistant editors. It is a bimonthly. I’ll send you a copy as soon as the first issue is out .

Are you still teaching the graduate class now? I will never forget your English classes, which were so lively and interesting.

Love to your family!

Yours gratefully,

Chen Hua

81、提示：

(1) 书是我们的朋友。（从书与知识的关系、知识与人生的关系来说明。）

(2) 历史上的伟人都爱书。（从读书与伟人所以能取得事业成功的关系来阐述）

(3) 结论：书能使我们了解过去、瞻望未来，是世上最宝贵的东西。

要求：

(1) 根据上面的提示，写一篇题为“Let Books Be Our Good Friends”的说理文。

(2) 字数：120个左右。

Let Books Be Our Good Friends

Books are our friends because they are bridges to knowledge. Knowledge is valuable because it enriches our life and brings us happiness.

Almost all great men in the history of mankind loved books. We have every reason to believe it is the knowledge in books that led them to success. There is no genius without books. Because books give them knowledge and knowledge gives them power. A man is half blind if he is unable to read.

Books make us able to learn about the past and look forward to the future. They are the most valuable things in the world. Let books be our good friends all the time.

82、根据下面的提示，以“Air Around Us”为题，写一篇短文。（字数：100－120）

提示：

(1) 空气无色、无味、无嗅，但我们可以感觉到它的存在，因为风就是流动的空气。

(2) 没有空气人和生物不能生存，声音不能传播，飞机不能飞行。

(3) 空气中除水蒸气外主要含有氮气(nitrogen)和氧气。其中氮气约占78%，氧气约占

21%。几乎所有生物都需要氧气，没有氧气就不能燃烧。

Air Around Us

Air is around us. We can not see it, smell it, or taste it. But we can feel the wind blow. We can see the wind move waves on the water, clouds in the sky, and tree branches. Wind is moving air.

Without air we could not breathe. There could be no living plants or animals. Because sound travels through air, without air there would be silence. The movement of air can support a large, heavy plane.

Air is a mixture of gases and water vapor. The most important gases in the air are nitrogen and oxygen. 78 percent of the air is made up of nitrogen, and about 21 percent of oxygen. Almost all living things use the oxygen in air. Fire cannot burn without oxygen.

83、用英文写一篇题为《电视机和收音机》的短文。（120字左右）

短文大意是：电视机既能看又能听，比收音机更有用。但收音机并未消失，听众反而越来越多。原因何在？

原因之一是晶体管(transistor)的发明。晶体管收音机体积小，携带方便。另外，收音机更适合老人、盲人使用。更重要的是，收音机价格便宜。

84、根据下列提示写一则日记。(字数：100—120)

提示：

(1) 日期：2008年5月26日，星期六。

(2) 天气：有风

(3) 下午上课时你思想老是开小差，因为你总想着晚上7点要去看影片“音乐之声”。在放学回家的路上，你遇到了一个迷了路的孩子，设法把他送回了家。你虽然没有看上电影但心里却很高兴。

A Page from My Diary

Saturday, May 26 Windy

Saturday again. How time flies! Another week has gone.

This afternoon, I was often absent-minded in class, for I was thinking of the film “The Sound of Music”, which would be shown at 7 p.m. on the school playground. As soon as class was over, I hurried out of the classroom.

On the way home I saw a little child standing by the roadside crying. Obviously, he had lost his way. Forgetting all about the film, I went up to him and asked him to tell me whatever he knew about his family. It took me nearly an hour to send him home. His parents were very glad to find their lost child back and thanked me again and again.

I missed the film. But I felt happy.

87、你班将举行一次英语学习经验交流会。你打算在会上谈谈“如何提高听力（listening ability）”的学习体会。你的学习体会主要是：大多数初学英语者是很难听懂英美人的讲话的。要提高听力，必须注意以下三条：首先，循序渐近，不听超出自己实际水平的材料；其次，固定学习一套教程，不宜多变；第三，经常收听电台的英语新闻节目。

A Notice of Reading Room Rules

Read this notice before you start reading here.

Do

(1) keep the room quiet and clean.

(2) Show your student card when borrowing books.

(3) Borrow only one book at a time.

Don’t

(1) Don’t talk or laugh loudly.

(2) Don’t move the desks or chairs.

(3) Don’t tear off the books.

(4) Don’t take out the books.

TVs and Radios

TVs are more useful than radios. From TV you can see and hear what is happening in the world. However, radios are not disappearing. They are still with us. And the number of listeners is becoming larger. Do you know why?

One reason for this is the invention of the transistor. A transistor radio can be very small. It is very easy to be carried. Besides, radio broadcasts are better for blind people. Many old people don’t have good eyesight. They can’t watch TV, but can listen to music or news over the radio. What’s more, a radio is cheaper than a TV set.
