| Hello again. We’re on holiday! My family won a prize – tickets for a round-world-trip on the Freedom of the Seas! Can you believe it? This is one of the biggest cruise（巡游）ships in the world – it‘s huge! It’s as long as 37 buses and can carry more than 4,000 passengers. That’s a lot of people! You know that I like to be very active, so at first I thought this cruise was going to be a little boring … I was so wrong! The ship has an ice-skating rink, an outdoor climbing wall (more than 13 meters high), two swimming pools, a water park and even a boxing ring. But best of all … the Flowrider! It’s a surfing attraction at the top of the ship. I tried it yesterday but I kept falling! I must try again this afternoon. Mom and Dad were also pretty impressed（印象）by the shopping mall on the ship. You’ve really got to see this fantastic ship – it’s truly spectacular（壮观）. I’ll write again when I get home (Sunday) and tell you more about the cruise. Bye! Anne |

Can you find anything strange about the cat on the left?
In 1961, a man found a strange cat on his farm in Scotland. The cat’s ears were folded (折着的), bent (弯曲) forward, on its head. In fact, this was a new kind of cat. People named it the “Scottish Fold”.
The Scottish Fold has a round head and big eyes. Its neck and legs are short. They make it look very lovely. Interestingly, all the Scottish Folds are born with straight and unfolded ears. And when they are growing up day by day, some cats’ ears will begin to fold. So, the Scottish Fold comes in two types: folded ears and straight ears.
There is a nickname（昵称）for the Scottish Fold. It is the “Messenger(信使）of Peace”. Why? Because the Folds are sweet and friendly animals. They can get along well with other cats. And unlike some other cats, they can even get along well with dogs! In many different places, for example, at a noisy house or in a cat show, you can see them playing with other animals happily.
Well, when you come to a new school, do you think it’s difficult to feel comfortable in the new place? Perhaps you can learn from the Scottish Fold, which is always sweet and friendly to others.
What does the Scottish Fold look like?
| A．It has no ears. |
| B．It has a round head and big eyes. |
| C．It doesn’t look very lovely. |
| D．Its neck and legs are long. |
What does get along well mean in Chinese?
| A．友好相处 | B．互相打击 |
| C．互相促进 | D．进展顺利 |
Why do people name the Folds “Messenger of Peace”?
| A．Because their ears are folded. |
| B．Because they look very cute. |
| C．Because they can get on well with other animals. |
| D．Because they can stay at a noisy house or in a cat show. |
According to the passage, what is the writer’s advice to us when we are in a new environment（环境）?
| A．We should have a nickname. |
| B．We should learn from the cats. |
| C．We should get along well with dogs. |
| D．We should always be sweet and friendly to others. |
Last year Jim was going to join the army( 部队) and had to take a medical examination (体检). The doctor was sitting at a desk when he went in. He said to the man, “Take your coat and shirt off, and sit on that chair.”
Jim did so. The doctor looked at him for a moment without getting up from his chair and then said, “All right. Put your clothes on again.”
“But you haven't examined me at all.” the young man said in surprise.
“There is no need to do so,” the doctor said with a smile. “When I told you to take your coat and shirt off, you heard me all right, so there is nothing wrong with your ears. You saw your chair, so your eyes are good. You could take your clothes off and sit on the chair, so you must be in good health.
