A
I work at a Care Center where most of the people are elderly. About a year and a half ago a 59-year-old lady came to us who had cancer. She had to have her right leg amputated(切除)and she didn’t have a family to take care of her after the operation.
This lady was a quiet lady who mostly stayed alone. But in the afternoons, when she was feeling well, she would go to visit the other people in the Care Center. She would visit a lady who was blind and read to her. She would go into the room of a young girl with severe cerebral palsy(脑瘫)and sing to her. In her quiet and gentle way, she would go about the Care Center doing goods.
She passed away last Wednesday and after her passing, stories are coming forward of her quiet acts of kindness in her own hour of sorrow.
We never know what impact we have upon others. She had every reason to be bitter, to be angry, or to be swallowed up in her own grief. But she wasn’t. She didn’t have a family and probably felt forgotten, but her small and quiet acts of service made an impact upon the entire Care Center.

Why buy art? To answer this question, ask yourself what your reasons are for thinking of getting a piece of art. Artwork can cost a large amount of money, but if it meets your needs, it’s worth every penny. Anyone can buy art for almost any reason. Many people buy art simply because they like it, even if the artwork may be by an unknown artist. Art, as long as you enjoy it, is never a waste of money.
Art Is for Enjoyment
Art is meant to be shown. Don’t ever feel pressured to buy something you won’t enjoy looking at day after day, no matter what other people may say. Don’t buy something that doesn’t attract you just because it is trendy, or because the artwork will make a good investment. If you don’t like the artwork at all, don’t buy it!
Art Improves Your Environment
Have you ever noticed that all beautiful homes have art as an integral(不可分割的) part of the decoration? Art lends life and color to otherwise plain and ordinary walls. A well thought-out art collection will help create a unique ambience(格调) in your home and make it more attractive.
Art Make a Statement
The kind of art you surround yourself with says much about your personality, tastes and values. Art truly is a mirror of the soul.
Art Enriches Your Life
Love (even the love of a work of art) contributes to healthier living and a longer lifespan (寿命). Art should enrich your life. Otherwise, why do you spend specious time and resources on it?
Just remember to select something that will appeal to your tastes, and keep to a sensible budget. Good art needn’t cost an arm and a leg.
Happy art collecting!

第二节 任务型阅读

Fruit also makes up a flowering plant. It carries the seeds . The purpose of fruit is to protect a plant’s seeds and help them get spread about. Wind and water spread seeds .So do animals when they eat fruit and drop the seeds .
There are two main types of fruit: fleshy and dry. Fleshy fruits are soft and juicy , the way we usually think of fruits . Peaches ,plums ,and apples are all fleshy fruits . Dry fruits are thin and hard . Grains like wheat and rice , or nuts are dry fruits.
You’ve eaten seedless oranges and grapes . How can they be fruits? It’s because people have changed the way they grow fruit. They can now grow seedless fruit . Seedless fruit comes from special plants called hybrids(杂交生物体) . A hybrid is made by combining two varieties of a fruit to form a new variety . This hybrid grows and produces seeds . But the plants grown from these seeds are seedless . These plants cannot reproduce themselves.
A tomato is a vegetable , right? No , it’s actually a fruit . Other food we think of as vegetables—such as squash , peppers ,and eggplant—also are fruit . They’re fruit because they carry seeds and develop from flowers.
Here’s another surprise . Scientists classify the tomato as a berry(浆果) . In addition , they don’t consider some fruits we call berries to be true berries because a berry is normally a type of fruit with a lot of seeds inside it . Technically , a strawberry , isn’t a berry , because it has its seeds on the outside . The red part is just the tip of the strawberry stem that’s enlarged.
Fruits are a source of nourishing(滋养) substances that keep us alive and healthy . For example , they contain many vitamins , especially vitamins A and C, and many minerals . They also provide fibre for a healthy digestive system and carbohydrates that the body needs to make energy.

第三节 作文
友谊是一种人际关系（human relations）。交友是人的一种本能(a human instinct)。患难之中,我们需要朋友帮助、支持和鼓励。取得了成绩,我们也需要朋友分享欢乐。
友谊又是我们可以享受的最大乐趣之一。友谊蕴含真诚和乐于助人之意。懂得了友谊是多么宝贵之后,就应谨慎地选择朋友。真正的朋友品性良好,能力上等,心地善良;真正的朋友能分担我们的忧伤,倍增我们的欢乐。交友之时,要谨慎选择具有这样美好品质的人。
然后，我们应以礼待友（treat our friends with courtesy）,当心不要无理地妨碍他们,不嘲笑他们的所作所为。我们应原谅朋友的失败,并尽己所能帮助他们。 总之我们,建立了友谊之后,要通过言语和行动来珍惜友谊,像爱护宝物一样爱惜友谊。
只有以这种方式，我们才能发展真正的友谊。
