What Teenagers Can Do To Earn More Respect
As teenagers continue to grow and develop into young adults, the transition into adulthood has begun. With so many physical and emotional changes going on, certain manners are often forgotten and other adult traits(品质)are not yet accepted as a
way of life. __14__By doing the following things, you will earn more respect.
1.Contribute to the household
At the very least, clean up after yourself. As a teenager, you are old enough to clean up after yourself. When you make a mess, clean it up. __15__ All chores that you do help to reduce the load of the person who did them before. Now that you're old enough and capable, why shouldn't you contribute to the household? __16__
2.Be responsible
__17__Whether they are basic things, like brushing your teeth or doing your homework, or more involved chores that contribute to the household, simply fulfill your responsibilities on time. When adults know that they can rely on you, their trust and respect for you will increase.
3.Solve more of your own problem without asking for help
Instead of taking the easy approach and asking for help, make an effort to solve your problems on your own first. The “easy way” is only easy for you, but it is an extra task for the person from whom you are seeking help. Seek help only after you have made an honest effort to solve your own problems. __18__ When you become a good problem solver, you increase your value to the community.
A.Everyone has certain responsibilities.
B.By being aware of these manners and traits, you can manage them sooner.
C.The people doing the chores before will greatly appreciate the help.
D.This includes,but is not limited to, your dishes and your room.
E.It will make your life more pleasant

Visiting Britain
Dear Aunt Mei,
How time flies! It has been 6 months since I come here. I owe you a apology for not writing to you more often. I've been busy studying and trying to absorb all the
new thing around me, for I'm still experiencing culture shock. I'm glad you will visit me soon and I'll tell you something about London. London is an international city that there are many international restaurants and there is at least one Chinese restaurant in almost every town. You have to get used to the tipping system there. I suggest leaving 10% of the bill for the waiter and waitress. You can get some traveller's cheques as that is easy to exchange them at banks or hotels.
I think we should consider staying in the English countryside for a few nights so as to enjoy hiking and taste some mushrooms. Don't forget bring a warm coat for it can get pretty cold and foggy here.
One last thing, don't worry about how to get along with the people here because of the majority of them is quite friendly.
I am looking forward to your visit!
Love
Xiaojin

In America, it is the custom to express appreciation to people who help you in any way.Because it is commonly practiced, most people expect to be thanked when they do something for someone.
A foreign student should not be overly concerned about how to say “thank-you,” most important is to remember to always express appreciation in one way or another.Here are some best ways to express your appreciation:
•Always verbally(口头地) communicate appreciation.When the favor shown did not require a great deal of time or effort, a verbal “thank-you” is enough.
•Write a short letter or “thank-you” note.Small note cards with “Thank You” printed on the front are sold in most campus bookstores, as well as “Thank You” greeting cards.
•Give a small, twobit gift.The gift can be purchased or something you make.
•Treat the friend to a meal, a movie, or just a snack.
If the favor shown is small, a verbal “thank-you” is adequate.For example, if you ask someone for directions, for help with a homework problem, for information, etc., saying “thank you” verbally is enough.The closer the relationship, the less formal the expression of gratitude needs to be.
When an American family or friend invites you into their home for a meal, mailing a thank-you note to them a day or so later would be appropriate.It is not necessary to carry a gift to the home when you go to eat.But a small bouquet of flowers or a small box of candy would also be appropriate.If you stay overnight in a home, a thank-you note should be left on the bed or bedside table as you leave or mailed to the hostess soon after.If you spend Christmas with an American family, prepare to give a gift to the family.You don't need to buy an expensive gift at any time.
【语篇解读】 “谢谢你”是美国人的常用口语。本文告诉你说“谢谢你”的场合和如何恰当地向别人表达谢意。
21.The most important thing for a foreign student to do is to ________.
A.show thankfulness to others when he/she gets help
B.always care about how to say “Thank you” to others
C.help others and try to get as much appreciation as possible
D.remember a “Thank you” is enough for all kinds of help
答案 A [细节理解题。根据第二段中的most important is to remember to always express appreciation in one way or another可知,作为一个在美国的外国学生最重要的是在得到帮助时,不要忘记向别人表示感激之情。]
22.We may know from the passage that ________.
A.there is no need for “Thank you” between friends and close relationship
B.the further the relationship, the more formal the expression of gratitude needs to be
C.taking a “thank-you” note with you when you go to an American family for a meal
D.always taking gifts for all family members when you visit an American family
答案 B [细节理解题。根据The closer the relationship, the less formal the expression of gratitude needs to be.可知B项正确。]
23.The underlined word “twobit” in the passage probably has the same meaning as ________.
A.cheap B.expensive C.rare D.precious
答案 A [词义猜测题。根据短文最后一句,结合画线单词前面的small可以判断画线单词的意思应该是“便宜的;不贵的”。]
24.The passage is mainly written for ________.
A.people who are often helped by others
B.those who are impolite to others
C.foreign students studying in America
D.people who want to visit America
答案 C [推理判断题。作者先说明在美国说“Thank you”是一种风俗,接着又提到A foreign student,下文说明的是在美国如何表达感激。故文章主要是写给在美国学习的外国学生的。]

Many scholarships require that you write an essay in order to be considered for the prize money.However, if you're the sort of person that shivers whenever they have to complete a writing assignment, this may not be the best of news.Luckily for you, there is no reason to fear the scholarship essay.The following tips should help you conquer this not-so-easy aspect of the scholarship application process.
You should always outline your essays.This does not just apply to scholarship essays, either.An outline helps lend focus to your thoughts and helps you create a picture of the “whole” that the essay will become.Judges can't stand when your writing is loose, lacks coherence(连贯性) or when you fail to connect your main points.They want to see that you can support your argument well with clear and brief examples and that these examples do, in fact, relate to the topic at hand.
If you have a choice in the topic you get to write about, always try to select something you are personally interested in.Don't write what you think the judges want to hear.This will only amount in an essay that reads like everyone else's, which is not a great way to make yourself stand out.
If you are bored with a topic, then your essay will be boring as well.Make sure your ideas follow a clear and logical path, meaning they are connected well and the transitions(过渡) easily flow from one idea to the next.Likewise, try to stay away from the obvious or the sad story.Yes, college will be a life-changing experience, but can you think of an interesting reason why this is so? And yes, it is terrible that you lost a family member at a young age, but what does it have to do with winning this scholarship? Judges can smell sad stories from a mile away, so only pull at the heartstrings if you have a proper reason for doing so.
25.When writing a scholarship essay, an outline is necessary because it helps you ________.
A.focus on the details of the essay
B.think more about the scholarship
C.make a picture of the whole essay
D.draw much attention from the judges
答案 C [细节理解题。根据第二段中的An outline helps lend focus to your thoughts
and helps you create a picture of the “whole” that the essay will become.可知,概要可以使整个文章的主要内容一目了然,也就是说,概要是整篇文章的概述。C为正确选项。]
26.Your essay will be appreciated by judges if it ________.
A.turns out to be loose
B.is short of coherence
C.is unable to connect the main points
D.supports your argument with brief examples
答案 D [细节判断题。根据第二段第4句Judges can't stand when your writing is loose, lacks coherence(连贯性) or when you fail to connect your main points.可排除A、B、C三个选项;根据第5句They want to see that you can support your argument well with clear and brief examples可知D项正确。]
27.When choosing what to write about, you'd better ________.
A.choose a subject you are personally interested in
B.know what the judges' feelings and interests are
C.select something that is popular among students
D.know what the judges want to hear and know
答案 A [细节理解题。由第三段第一句可知答案。]
28.What is the author's opinion on writing the topic of a scholarship essay?
A.The essay should include the obvious or the sad story.
B.You must keep your mind in a clear and logical path.
C.You'd better try to put an interesting story in it.
D.Try to say as much as you can about your family.
答案 B [细节理解题。根据最后一段第二句Make sure your ideas follow a clear and logical path可知B选项正确。]
Ⅲ.短文改错

【参考范文】
Dear__editor,
I'm__a__middle__school__student.As we all know,it is important for us to have a quiet place to study in.I'd like to tell you what I have seen outside our school.
Some pedlars sell vegetables,fruit,meat and so on in the street.They make oral advertisements to draw the passers-by's attention.We can hear the noises in our classrooms and can't listen to our teachers clearly.Besides,they also make the streets dirty,smelly and crowded.
I hope we can have a quiet place to study our lessons.So I write to you in order to get the situation improved.At the same time,I suggest that the government should take measures to keep the market under strict control.
Yours,
Li__Hua
