Samuel Clemens, more commonly known as Mark Twain,was born in Florida, Missouri on Nov. 30, 1835. He was the fifth surviving(幸存的) child of John and Jane Lampton Clemens. He went to work in 1847 when his father died, starting off as an apprentice (学徒) to a printer, writing for his brother’s newspaper, and then working as a
riverboat pilot(河船引水员). In 1862 Sam began writing for many magazines and newspapers under the pen name of Mark Twain, a name taken from a riverboat term. Twain was a great writer, whose three best books were Roughing It, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.
Halley’s comet (哈雷彗星) was in sight at the time of his birth, making his arrival an even more special occasion. Mark Twain said, “I came in with Halley’s Comet in 1835 and I expect to go out with it.” Just before he died, Halley’s Comet passed over. He died the next day, April 21st, 1910, at 6:30 pm.
His different jobs gave him a good education and experiences with many kinds of people. Something else that helped him achieve greatness in the world was that he was determined. A third thing that helped him achieve greatness was that he had perseverance (毅力). Finally, Mark Twain learned from his experiences. He learned early that his readers liked different writing styles. He didn't disappoint them when he wrote his humor, satire (讽刺), and adventure. If his books didn't sell well, he would know how to try something different.

Clothing is a language. It tells us about individual people:their personality,their age,their place in society and so on. If we want to know more about a society,we can look at traditional clothing.
The continent of Africa has a long history and a rich culture,and this is shown in traditional dress. You often find three colours—red,gold and green in the clothing. The first colour stands for the blood of millions of people who suffered as slaves;the second is the rich resources of the African earth;and the third represents the grasslands of home.
The patterns on the clothing also have a meaning. A common pattern is in the form of a cross “X”,which stands for “unity”.Another pattern is a rectangular(长方形的)box,which represents “strength”.Because clothing has a strong social meaning,people are very careful in choosing what to wear. It would be a serious mistake to wear the wrong clothing,or to wear clothes in the wrong way. For instance,in Ghana,a woman should wear her waistband(腰带) differently according to the importance of the social event.
Traditional dress also tells us about everyday life. African designs are famous. Wide temperature range requires that the clothes be comfortable for daily life.
Although many people wear western clothes particularly in big cities in Africa,traditional African dress is very highly valued. This is because it has deep cultural meanings.
8.The main theme of this passage is________.
A.the history of clothes in Africa
B.modern fashion styles in Africa
C.the meanings of traditional dress in Africa
D.the materials used in traditional dress in Africa
9.According to the passage,red________.
A.represents the setting sun
B.stands for African unity
C.is chosen because it is a bright colour
D.is a reminder of the sad history in Africa
10.Gold stands for________.
A.the hot sun B.strength
C.wealth D.happiness
11.Traditional dress should also be practical because________.
A.it needs to keep people dry in the rainy season
B.people wear it in the big cities
C.it needs to protect people from the climate
D.it has deep cultural meanings
D
Could your best friend make you fat?
Researchers who have studied “networks” of obesity(肥胖) think so:they found that if someone's friend becomes obese,that person's chances of becoming obese increase by more than half.
Brothers or sisters and a husband or a wife also have an influence,although reduced_ people whose brothers or sisters became obese were 40 percent more likely to grow obese,while people whose husband or wife became obese were 37 percent more likely to.
“This is the first study to show how obesity spreads through the social network from person to person,”James Fowler of the University of California,San Diego,who worked on the study,told in a telephone interviewing.
The researchers said their findings show that obesity is contagious(感染性的)—not like a virus(病毒) which is contagious,but in a social sense.
It may help explain why obesity is worsening across the United States,with twothirds of Americans overweight and almost a third technically obese.
“It has become very popular to speak of the obesity epidemic(传染病). We began to wonder if it is truly an epidemic,”Dr.Nicholas Christakis,a professor of medical sociology at Harvard Medical School in Boston,told the briefing.
“We think that these findings reinforce(加强) the idea that obesity is not just an individual problem but a collective problem,”Christakis said.
“People look around them and see people gaining weight and it might change their attitude about what constitutes(组成) an acceptable body size,”he added.“You might say it's OK to be heavier.”
12.The underlined phrase “reduced people” refers to________.
A.the influence of people is smaller and smaller
B.fat persons are having less and less friends
C.the number of fat persons is decreasing largely
D.persons are becoming thinner and thinner
13.What's the new finding of researchers in the passage?
A.Obesity is popular with Americans.
B.Obesity spreads from person to person.
C.Obesity can be spread like a virus.
D.Obesity is becoming an epidemic.
14.In what aspect do your fat friends have an impact on you?
A.They may influence you how to choose a lover.
B.They may assist you in forming a life value.
C.They may change your attitudes towards obesity.
D.They may help you understand what obesity is.
15.From the passage,we can infer that________.
A.it's better not to make friends with fat persons
B.obesity is a kind of disease that can spread
C.most Americans think obesity is a kind of beauty
D.it needs a collective effort to deal with obesity

Dear editor
Nowadays, after-class activities are becoming increasingly popular in senior high school. We also have many kinds of after-class activities in our school, such as the English Corner, Sunshine Radio Station, Happy Reading Club and so on
I’m interested in the English Corner , because it can not only help me make some new friends, but also improve my spoken English. In addition, I’m fond of the Sunshine Radio Station, where I can have an unforgettable experience and make good friends. I hope my dream of being a host may come true one day. These after-class activities make me feel more confident.
If you want to take part in after-class activities, I have some suggestions. First, you had better choose the activity which you like best. Second, try to make the best of your interest.
Yours,
Li Hua
