（一）

Hi, Louis!

I’m writing to tell you something about the customs and festivals.

Everyone loves holidays since one doesn’t need to go to school or

work. Although all holidays mean no school and work, but not all of them

are the same. On some of them you go out with friends; on others you stay

home to eat, talk, and have fun with your family. For example in the U.S.,

everyone thinks New Year’s Eve and New Year are both for partying with

friends. Christmas is the time to stay home and exchange gifts with family

members. The opposite is true in Japan though. For example, in Japan, New

Year is for spending time with the family to eat, talk, have fun, and go

to the temples. But Christmas is for boy and girl friends to go out and

exchange gifts. Originally Christmas should be to celebrate the birth of

Christ.

I have been interested in foreign customs since I was little. If you

learn these different holiday customs, you will learn about different

histories and cultures. This is much more interesting than learning them

at the library from morning to evening.

Love,

Sue

Can dolphins talk? Maybe they can’t talk with words, but they talk

with sounds. They show their feelings with sounds.

Dolphins travel in a group. We call a group of fish a “school”. They

don’t study, but they travel together.

Dolphins talk to the other dolphins in the school. They give

information. They tell when they are happy or sad or afraid. They say

“wele”when a dolphin es back to the school. They talk when they play.

They make a few sounds above water. They make many more sounds under

water. People cannot hear these sounds because they are very, very high.

Scientists make tapes of the sounds and study them.

Sometimes people catch a dolphin for a large aquarium（水族馆）. People

can watch the dolphins in a show. Dolphins don’t like to be away from

their school in an aquarium. They are sad and lonely（孤独的）.

There are many stories about dolphins. They help people. Sometimes

they save somebody’s life. Dolphin meat is good, but people don’t like

to kill them. They say that dolphins bring good luck. Many people believe

this.

All my friends at school smoked. My dad smoked; he didn’t want me

to smoke but my friends kept saying I was stupid. They asked when I was

going to grow up. So I started when I was sixteen and after a month I couldn’

t stop. But two years later I could feel what smoking was doing to me.

I couldn’t run far, and I coughed every morning. I got very ill and decided

to stop. It wasn’t easy, but now I’ve done it, and I feel better. Now

I have money for other things.

If you smoke, you are twice as likely to die from a heart attack. And

the more you smoke, the earlier the heart attack is likely to be. For

example, a 50-year-old who smokes more than 20 cigarettes a day, is four

times more likely to have heart disease than a non-smoker of the same age.

What does smoking do to the heart? First of all, it makes the heart

beat faster and increases the blood pressure. The cigarette smoke also

reduces the amount of oxygen in the blood. Consequently, the heart has

to work harder, with less oxygen. Finally, your arteries will narrow faster

if you smoke.

So if you want to reduce your chances of getting heart disease, the

answer is easy –– not to smoke. Don’t copy your friends and other people

who smoke. If you smoke, find out how to stop. Stopping isn’t easy, but

you’ll be healthier, and ....

C. He bees healthier and has money to do other things.

（五）

New York is one of the most exciting cities in the world.

You might want to do some shopping in New York. Fifth Avenue is probably

New York’s most famous shopping street, but if you go, be prepared to

“window shop”only. This is shopping for the rich. There are other, less

expensive shopping areas nearby, and you’ll soon e across famous stores

such as Bloomingdales, Macy’s and FAO Schwartz.

And if you’ve brought your rollerblades, then a visit to Central Park

is a must. This is a large, open park right in the middle of Manhattan,

but if you thought that people came here to relax, sit down for a few minutes

and get away from the rush of New York life, then you’d be wrong. Nobody

sits in Central Park: they run, jog（慢跑）, and most of all they

rollerblade.

When you leave New York, you might be tired, even poor and overweight,

but the one thing you won’t be is bored!

根据短文内容，回答问题。

1. Why would you probably only “window shop”in Fifth Avenue?

_____________________________________________________________

2. What do some waiters and waitresses in New York wear on their feet?

3. What don’t people do in Central Park?

In the USA, there are many types of restaurants. Fast food restaurants

are very famous. You can find McDonald’s and Kentucky Fried Chicken in

many countries around the world. You look at a menu above the counter,

and say what you’d like to eat. You pay the person who serves you. You

take your food and sit down or take it away. There’s no need to leave

a tip.

In a coffee shop you sit at the counter or at a table. You don’t wait

for the waitress to show you where to sit. She usually brings you coffee

when you sit down. You tell her what you’d like to eat and she brings

it to you. You pay the cashier as you leave. A diner is like a coffee shop

but usually looks like a railway carriage.

In a family restaurant the atmosphere is casual, but the waitress shows

you where to sit. Often the waitress tells you her name, but you don’

t need to tell her yours. If you don’t eat everything, your waitress gives

you a doggy bag to take your food home. You add an extra fifteen percent

to the bill as a tip.

In top class restaurants, you need a reservation and you need to arrive

on time. The waiter shows you where to sit. If you have wine, he may ask

you to taste it. You can only refuse it if it tastes bad, not if you don’

t like it. When you get your bill, check it and then add fifteen to twenty

percent to it as a tip for the waiter.

Cold air. Snow. Shorter days. We are in winter now.

Winter is the coldest season of the year. It es between autumn

and spring. For us, the winter months are usually November,

December and January. But that is only because we live in the

northern part of the Earth.

southern part of the Earth, has its summer. Imagine when we are

playing with snow, Australian kids are enjoying ice cream!

Put on a holiday play and try acting. Ask your cousins or

classmates to e to your house and make beautiful clothes and write

Look at the light and beautiful snowflakes (雪花) falling.

Ever wanted to hold them in your hands? They are always lost when

they meet your hands.

Well, this isn’t just a problem for you. It was a problem for

Wilson Bentley, too.

In the 1870s, Wilson Bentley was just a teenager. His family lived

in a small town in northeast America. Winters there were long

and hard. Bentley’s mother was once a school teacher. She taught

him at home. Bentley didn’t go to school until he was 14. He

was a quiet boy, and loved reading his mother’s books.

But it was his mother’s microscope (显微镜) that interested him.

When the other boys were playing with balls, little Bentley was

studying things like drops of water, flowers and snowflakes.

Bentley loved watching snowflakes. For the next two years young

Bentley spent many winter days in a cold room watching these ice

crystals (晶体) under his microscope.

The boy thought they were so beautiful that he started to draw

pictures of them. But there were so many snowflakes that he

couldn’t draw them all.

How could he keep their beauty forever? Bentley thought of buying

a camera.

The boy and his mother asked his father to buy one. But, his father

didn’t agree. He thought the whole thing was a bad idea. He

thought the only thing a farmer should do was farming.

But finally Bentley did get a camera. For more than a year he

tried to take pictures of snowflakes. On January 15, 1885, during

a snowstorm, Bentley took the first ever photo of an ice crystal

with his camera. “It was the greatest moment of my life,” Bentley

said later.

For 13 years, Bentley worked quietly and took thousands of photos

of ice crystals. Later he became known as “Snowflake” Bentley.

Winter is a time for many exciting sports: sledding (雪

橇), skating and skiing. Skating and skiing needs lots of skills

(技巧). Sledding gives you good exercise and is lots of fun!

A sled looks like a boat. It can move easily over snow or ice.

Early sleds were made of wood. Now some better sleds are made

of glass.

Sleds can be pulled by animals. In some very cold parts of the

world, people make animals like dogs, horses, and reindeer (驯

鹿) pull goods or people in sleds.

People also sled for sports and fun. Driving a sled does not need

much skill. The driver gives a kick (踢) in the snow to start

the sled. He or she can also ask someone else for help. In a sled,

there can be one person or several.

Usually, you have to lie on your back, feet first in a sled. As

you travel, you move your body and feet to keep it in the right

direction (方向).

There is a special sled called the skeleton sled (骨架雪橇). It’

s very different.

On a skeleton, you lie on your stomach and drive the sled in a

head-first way. It is very fast! Many are afraid to ride it. But

once they try it they want to do it again!

阅读短文，回答下列问题：

1. What are sleds made of?

2. What kind of animals can pull sleds?

3. What are sleds used for?

4. How do people sled? Describe the process.

5. What is a skeleton sled like?

During the cold winter days you may find it hard to wake

up in the morning. It’s warm and cozy (舒适的) in your bed.

In winter, many animals like to sleep, too. But their sleeps can

be very long and deep. This kind of sleep is called hibernation

(冬眠). During this kind of sleep, their temperatures go down,

and hearts beat (跳动) slowly. They take very small breaths.

Animals can hibernate for part or all of the winter. It’s hard

for them to find things to eat. When they go to sleep, they don’

t need much food.

Bears, hedgehogs (刺猬) and chipmunks (花栗鼠) go to sleep in

their homes. Frogs and snakes hibernate, too. Frogs move into

the earth under water to keep themselves warm.

Before they go to sleep, they eat a lot to get fat (脂肪). Some

also keep food in their homes to eat later.

Bears are the biggest animals that hibernate. They often sleep

in caves (山洞). Bears must eat a lot of things like nuts before

going to sleep for a long time. They eat as much as 300 apples

( that’s the same as 60 hamburgers) each day for many

weeks. They can eat for 20 hours in a day!

Bears can go into a very deep sleep. It can last from three months

to half a year. During that time they do not eat, drink or go

to the toilet. A mother bear can give birth to babies during her

hibernation.

Other animals sleep less. Sometimes they wake up to eat, or take

a walk. Then they go to sleep again.

根据短文内容判断正误：

1. Hibernation is a the long and deep sleep of animals in winter.

2. During hibernation, animals don’t breathe at all.

3. Bears eat lots of food before they hibernate in winter.

4. Bears don’t go to the toilet during their hibernation.

5. Frogs hibernate in the Earth under water.

6. Mother bears can’t give birth to babies during hibernation.

7. We can infer that fat is an important food for animals during

hibernation.

8. Bears, hedgehogs, chipmunks, pigs and frogs hibernate.
