In the Pacific Northwest during winter, 5.15 a.m. might be the middle of night. It is not only dark, but also cold. If you asked me a year ago if I could run early on a winter morning, I would laugh. ,last fall I connected with a friend. She'd been running with a partner in the morning and had forty pounds that year .I knew I could also have the same kind of weight loss. Since her running partner wasn't running, I asked if I could her.
The first two months were ,because we ran twice a week at 5.15 a.m. My body wasn't used to the early hours and every run was difficult. Then it snowed and we took two months . When the roads were clear, we soon were running together five days a week. As I'd changed the route of running, I discovered little that made it even more worthy(值得的)than a little weight loss. As we couldn't see other runners' faces, we said "good morning" to them shining a flashlight(手电筒).Running in the dark made us part of a club. When the sky was clear, I noticed lots of stars. It me of summertime camping and I looked forward to running in warmer weather.
Though I haven't taken off forty pounds yet, it's amazing how much more I have and how much stronger I feel. Because of the morning run, the rest of the day is more productive(有成效的)than before,1 wouldn't say I've a morning person, but l would say morning run is now my thing.

Dear Sheila,
You are right to be worried about friend,Joleen.This is a serious problem.She should not continue to be on a diet if she is very thin,she may have an illness called “anorexia”.Anorexia people are afraid of eating food.You must advise her to see a doctor soon. If she won’t do that,you should talk to her parents or to a teacher.
Dear Simon,
You feel ashamed because you should have helped the woman.You are right.Your friends were cruel to that woman.We all want our friend to like us.But we don’t have to follow our friends all the time.You’re a good boy.You should be strong enough to make up your own mind next time.

A proverb is a simple saying that explains a general rule or feeling. Four people share their favorites:
Sarah /England
My favorite proverb would have to be "Don't judge (判断) a book by its' cover." I think it can be used in many daily situations. Obviously, when you meet new people, you always need to give someone a chance. So, I think that a chance is always good for someone, probably better than judging on first impressions (印象).
Gareth / England
My favorite proverb is "Hear and I forget; see and I understand; I do and I know." I like it because it means until you actually do something, it's hard to really, truly know it. I believe that a lot of the times when you're learning by hearing, it's very difficult to get that knowledge. When you see something, it gets a little bit better, but when you do something, that's when you really truly know something.
Lindsay / United States
I really like the proverb, "The grass is always greener on the other side." I think that's really true, and I find that it's always like that. I always want what I can't have, and then when I get that, then I find out that it's not as great as I had hoped it would be. So, because of this, I try to always keep that in mind and be happy for what I have.
Warren / Canada
I think "What goes around, comes around " is what comes to mind for me. I think it is really true. Basically, if you do something good, good things will happen to you. And if you do bad things, bad things are going to happen to you, maybe not right away but after a long time.The underlined word "proverb" probably means_______.
Who thinks it is important to learn by doing?
A.Sarah. | B.Gareth. |
C.Lindsay. | D.Warren. |
Jill: My job is so boring. I wish I had my own business, like Katie does.
Jane: Katie probably wishes she had as much spare time as you do.
A.Don't judge a book by its cover. |
B.What goes around, comes around. |
C.The grass is always greener on the other side. |
D.Hear and I forget; see and I understand; I do and I know. |

"When I was seventeen, I received a letter from my father. He said that he was leaving India and coming back to England. He gave me the address of a hotel in London. He asked me to meet him there."
"I was very happy and excited about seeing my dear father again, I went to London and arrived at the hotel. I asked for Captain Morstan, my father. But I was told by the hotel manager that my father was not there. He had gone out the night before and not returned."
"I waited all day and all night, but my father didn't come back to the hotel. Finally, I went to the police. They advertised for Captain Morstan in all the newspapers, but without success. I never saw my dear father again."

假设你是Aunt Tara,请在阅读Kate的来信后给她写一封回信,内容须包括你的建议(至少两条)。
Dear Aunt Tara,
I have a problem with my homework. We have to do it in a group. It has to be finished this Friday, but Gary, the boy in our group, has done nothing helpful. He just keeps rocking the boat.
Every time we talk about the work with him, he always says, "Don't worry. I'll do it later." But he seldom does his job. And when he does, he does it the wrong way. Someone has to do it for him again. What's worse, when Ms. Lin asks about our group, Gary always tells her that we others don't work hard enough. I'm really mad at Gary about this. We're in the same group. Shouldn't we help each other to do a better job? What should I do? Could you give me some advice?
Kate
