If you are a dinner guest in Ghana, this information will help you.In Ghana, dinner is usually from four in the afternoon to six in the evening. But there are no strict rules about time in Ghana. Whenever a guest arrives, a family offers food.When you go to a home, the host takes you to the living room first. At this time everyone welcomes you. Then you go to the dinning room. There you wash your hands in a bowl of water. All the food is on the table.In Ghana, you usually eat with your fingers. You eat with the same dish as everyone else. But you eat from one side of the dish only. It is not polite to get food from the other side of the dish. After dinner, you wash your hands again in a bowl of water.Most meals in Ghana have a dish called fufu. People in Ghana make fufu from the powder of some plants. Sometimes they cut the fufu with a saw because it is very hard and like rubber. You must chew fufu well, or you can get sick. You eat fufu with the fingers of your right hand only.31.

And you’ve got a sense of humor about short forms like SOHF (=sense of humor failure) to describe Internet newcomers who don’t understand you. Across the globe, every night teenagers and their elders are “talking” online, many of them all talking at the same time.It’s fast: try talking to six people at once. It’s brief: three or four words per exchange. It takes wit (诙谐), and quick fingers.Want to enter a conversation? Just type PMFJI (=pardon me for jumping in). Interested in whom you are talking to? Type A/S/L (=age, sex, location), then you may get 15/M/NY as a response from your pal.If something makes you laugh, say you’re OTF (=on the floor), or LOL (=laughing out loud), or combine the two into ROTFL (=rolling on the floor laughing).And when it’s time to get back to work or go to bed, you type GTG (=got to go) or TTYL (=talk to you later).People want to write as fast as possible, and they want to get their ideas across as quickly as they can. Capital letters are left in the dust, except when expressing strong feelings, as it takes more time to hold down the “shift” key and use capitals. Punctuation (标点) is going , too.36. In order to talk to several people at the same time on the Internet, .A. you have to speak fast and fluentlyB. you should speak with wit and humorC. one should pay much attention to the use of exact wordsD. you have to express your ideas in a brief way37.

The proper title of the passage may be _________.A. Conversation in chat roomB. How to enter a conversationC. InternetD. Talking online in a short form of EnglishCWhen it comes to friends, I desire those who will share my happiness, who possess wings of their own and who will fly with me. I seek friends whose qualities illuminate (照亮) me and train me up for love. It is for these people that I reserve the glowing hours, too good not to share.When I was in the eighth grade, I had a friend. We were shy and “too serious” about our studies when it was becoming fashionable with our classmates to learn acceptable social behaviors. We said little at school, but she would come to my house and we would sit down with pencils and paper, and one of us would say: “Let’s start with a train whistle today.” We would sit quietly together and write separate poems or stories that grew out of a train w histle. Then we would read them aloud. At the end of that school year, we, too, were changing into social creatures and the stories and poems stopped.When I lived for a time in London, I had a friend, He was in despair (失望) and I was in despair. But our friendship was based on the idea in each of us that we would be sorry later if we did not explore this great city because we had felt bad at the time. We met every Sunday for five weeks and found many excellent things. We walked until our despairs disappeared and then we parted. We gave London to each other.For almost four years I have had a remarkable friend whose imagination illuminates mine. We write long letters in which we often discover our strangest selves. Each of us appears, sometimes in a funny way, in the other’s dreams. She and I agree that, at certain times, we seem to be parts of the same mind. In my most interesting moments, I often think: “Yes, I must tell….” We have never met.It is such comforting companions I wish to keep. One bright hour with their kind is worth more to me than the lifetime services of a psychologist (心理学家), who will only fill up the healing (愈合的) silence necessary to those darkest moments in which I would rather be my own best friend.41. In the eighth grade, what the author did before developing proper social behavior was to .A. become serious about her studyB. go to her friend’s house regularlyC. learn from her classmates at schoolD. share poems and stories with her friend42.

Unforgettable ExperiencesB. Remarkable ImaginationC. Lifelong FriendshipD. Noble Companions第II卷第三部分写作（共两节，满分25分）第一节阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）Friends are more important than homes, jobs, clothes and cars. A well-established friendship carries a long history of experience and interaction (相互影响). It is a heritage we should protect. There are good reasons to treasure our friendships.Ironically (讽刺地), the better friends you are, the more likely you’ll face conflict (矛盾). And the result can be what you don’t wan t—an end to the relationship. The good news is that most troubled friendships can be mended. There’s no better time than the present to make up to old friends.Here’s how to get past the grudge (怨恨) and regain the relationships that bring joy and laughter to your life.Swallow your pride. It wasn’t easy. when a friend hurts you, your instinct (本能) is to protect yourself. But that makes it harder to deal with problems. Most of us become relaxed when differences are brought out in the open. Apologize when you’re wrong—even if you’ve also been wronged.No one should allow himself to be emotionally abused (虐待) by anyone. But over the course of a friendship, even the best people make mistakes. A relationship can turn to an end if one refuses to make the first move. So it may be best if the wronged person apologizes first. Accept that friendships change. Friendships change as our needs and lifestyles change. It is healthy to have a host of friends and to sometimes change the position of one or another.Making friends can sometimes seem easy, the hard part is keeping the connections strong during the natural ups and downs that affect all relationship. So consider friendship an honor and a gift, and worth the effort to treasure and raise.请根据上文信息, 完成下面表格第二节书面表达（满分15分）高中生为了实现心中的梦想，常常会被迫放弃许多业余活动，夜以继日地学习。
