Dear Mr．and Mrs．Smith．
I am writing to thank you for looking after me so well when I came to stay with you in England． You made me feel like part of the family，I felt I was Ann's sister，although I was just her friend from Singapore．I had a good time when I was in England．We visited many different places and took lots of photos．My mother has kept all the postcards I sent to her，I am going to put them on the bookshelf with some of the photos．
The journey I went home was very relaxing，and the long flight seemed to pass more quickly than usual，thanks to the book Harry Potter Ann gave me to read on the plane．My parents were pleased to see me．and said that they missed me a lot．We will have a busy time soon，as we are moving house next month．I have given Ann my new address，and I hope she will be able to come and stay with us next summer．
I must finish now，because my father is going to the shopping centre and he said he would post this letter for me while he is there．
Best wishes．
Kate．

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 learn it better and faster.
If you love learning English, you will learn it regularly (有规律地) and spend much 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 War II. If you ask a person who doesn’t like history to memorize all the facts, he probably can’t do it.
When you don’t want to learn English, you can do the following things.
First, imagine that you can talk to native speakers just as you talk in your mother language. Imagine yourself to be a manager in a foreign company. Imagine you’re 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’ll learn it. English is very popular, so you can use it everywhere. You can watch American cartoons, write English diaries, and read interesting books written in English.The underlined word “passion” means “______” in Chinese.
| A．态度 | B．热情 | C．步骤 | D．情绪 |
The missing part in the Paragraph 3 can be ______.
| A．You can’t memorize everything while learning English. |
| B．You will find it hard to learn English. |
| C．That’s because you can easily remember what you like. |

| B．Read interesting English books. |

New York is one of the last large American cities to have some of its policemen on horseback. The New York police have 170 horses working in certain parts of the city. The horses are expensive to feed, but it is even more expensive to look after them. Because the horses must walk on the streets, they need special horseshoes. In fact, they need more than 8,000 of them each year. Every police horse in New York gets new shoes every month. Keeping these shoes in good repair is the job of six blacksmiths(铁匠). There are only about thirty-five of these blacksmiths in the whole United States. The cost of shoeing a horse is between twenty dollars and thirty-five dollars, and it takes a good blacksmith two or three hours to do the job.
A blacksmith’s job is not an easy one. He must be able to shape a shoe from a piece of metal and then fit it to the horse’s foot. The blacksmith must bend over all the time when he is fitting the shoe and must hold the weight of the horse’s leg while he works. Clearly, a blacksmith must be very storng. But even more important, he must be able to deal with horses---for before the blacksmith can begin his work, he has to get the horse to lift its leg.
One of the blacksmiths in New York is James Corbin. He came to the country from Ireland in 1948. He not only makes horseshoes for the police but also works for a group of horse owners near the city. Corbin became interested in blacksmithing because his father did it, and, as he puts it, “It’s a good way to make a living.”According to the reading passage, a blacksmith must be likely a ________________ man.
| A．clever | B．rich | C．strong | D．lucky |
James Corbin became a blacksmith because he ________________.
| A．was interested in horses |
| B．was needed by the policemen |
| C．drew a picture of the horseshoe |
| D．had to make a living |

| A．fit it on the horse’s foot |
| B．use it for two or three hours |
| C．make the form of a horseshoe from a piece of metal |
| D．draw a picture of the shoe |
The best title for the passage is “________________”.
| A．Policemen on Horseback |
| B．Blacksmiths and Horseshoeing |
| C．James Corbin, a Blacksmith |
| D．Horseshoeing is a Good Way to Make a Living |
