If you knew you had only three years left to live, how would you use your time? It’s a hard question and few of us would even like to think about it. But 18-year-old Huang Ge has to answer this question and he says: “I want to thank the people who have helped me.”
At age one, Huang’s mother left the family. Six years later, he was badly ill. He has been using a wheelchair since 9 years old. Doctors said he would only live to be 18.
After Huang’s story went on TV, hundreds of Chinese sent money to help him. The boy was so moved that he decided to thank every one of them. But it is not an easy job, because Huang was too sick even to drive a mosquito (蚊子) away from his leg. Huang has to be tied to his wheelchair to stop him from falling out. And the family can only afford a three-wheeled motorcycle (三轮摩托). Since 2003, the father and son have traveled 14000 kilometers, to 10 provinces, and thanked more than 30 helpers.
“I am moved by the story of this boy. We need the courage to face death, and we should also feel the thankfulness for those who help us,” reads an online post on cctv.com.

Quiet classes, endless exams and long hours at school…This might sound like the pressure most Chinese high school students face.But a group of 50 Grade 9 students from Bohunt School in Hampshire, UK, experienced it for a month.Five teachers were sent there to teach in their Chinese style.Things don’t go as well as they planned at first.When they gave lessons, students were chatting, eating…And the British students found these classes boring.“It’s very hard to say which education system is better.But I think we should learn from each other,” said one Chinese teacher Li Aiyun.
Though the education system is so different between Britain and China.We agree that getting education is the most important part in a person’s life.It is true that people with better education have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don’t.It seems the aim of education is to make people get jobs.But many people don’t agree with that.Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life getting education only for making a living.This was probably the earliest reason of education.In fact, if education is just a way of making a living, people don’t need to spend so much time in school.For example they don’t need to learn subjects like history and geography.It is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.
Education is well-rounded and it is mainly for improving a man.It is not only to teach him to speak, read and write, but also to develop his creative thinking and other abilities.After that, it is to make him a wise man and thankfully enjoy the achievements of human.Educated people will be able to listen to good music, read good books, watch plays and take an interest in the world.

Americans use many expressions with the word “dog”.People in the United States love their dogs and treat them well.They take their dogs for walks, let them play outside and give them good food and medical care.However, in other countries dogs without owners caring for them lead a different kind of life.The expression “to lead a dog’s life” describes a person who leads an unhappy life.
Some people say we live in a “dog-eat-dog” world.This means many people are competing for the same things, such as jobs.They say that to be successful, a person has to “work like a dog”.This means they have to work very, very hard.Such hard work can make people “dog-tired”.And the situation would be even worse if they became “sick as a dog”.
Still, people say “every dog has its day”.This means that every person enjoys a successful period during his or her life.To be successful, people often have to learn new skills.Yet, some people say that “you can never teach an old dog new tricks”.They believe that old people do not like to learn new things and will not change the way they do things.
Dog expressions are also used to describe the weather.“The dog days of summer” are the hottest days of a year.A rainstorm may cool the weather.But we do not want it to rain too hard.We do not want it “to rain cats and dogs”.

English is very important in the modern world. Many people want to learn it well. Here are some things that I want to say about learning it.
To learn English well, you need two things---passion and good learning methods(方法). Passion is the more important one. Why? Because passion makes you want to learn English. Learning methods only tell you how to do it better and faster.
If you love learning English, you will do it regularly(有规律地) and spend more time on it. It will also be easy for you to remember new words and grammar rules. __________ For example, some people like history and know a lot about World WarⅡ. If you ask a person who doesn’t like history to memorize all the facts, he probably can’t do it.
When you want to learn English, you can do the following things:
First, imagine(想象) that you can talk to native(本土的) speakers just as you talk in your mother language. Imagine yourself to be a manager(经理) in a foreign company(公司). Imagine you are living in an English-speaking country.
Second, use English as much as possible. This is very important. The more you use English, the better you will learn it. English is very popular, so you can use it everywhere. You can watch American cartoons, sing English songs, and read interesting books written in English as well. The underlined word “passion” means “_______” in Chinese.
| A．热情 | B．态度 | C．步骤 | D．情感 |
