Here is one of the letters she wrote to her parents from the school.Dear Mom and Dad,I’m afraid I have some very bad news for you. I have been very naughty and the school principal(校长)is very angry with me. She is going to write to you. You must come and take me away from here. She does not want me in the school any longer.The trouble started last night when I was smoking a cigarette in bed.This is against the rules, of course. We are not supposed to smoke at all.As I was smoking, I heard footsteps coming towards the room. I did not want a teacher to catch me smoking, so I threw the cigarette away. Unfortunately, the cigarette fell into the waste-paper basket, which caught fire. There was a curtain near the waste-paper basket which caught fire, too. Soon the whole room was burning. The principal phoned for the fire department. The school is a long way from the town and by the time the fire department arrived, the whole school was in flames. Many of the girls are in the hospital.The principal says that the fire was all my fault and you must pay for the damage.

Emsellem, director of the Center for Sleep && Wake Disorders in Chevy Chase, Maryland, and an associate clinical professor of neurology at George Washington University Medical Center in Washington, DC.1. Allow one hour before bedtime for a relaxing activity. Watching the news or answering e-mails does not count! Better choices are reading or listening to soft music.2. If your mind is relaxed but your body is tense, do some low-intensity stretches and exercises to relax your muscles, especially those in your upper body, neck, and shoulders. Before you get into bed, use light weights (3 to 5 pounds for women, 5 to 10 pounds for men) to calmly exercise these muscles. Do one set of 8 to 10 repetitions of a basic exercise for each upper body muscle. We call this automassage.3. Allow at least three hours between dinner and bedtime. The brain does not sleep well on a full stomach. If you know that you have a busy day planned the following day, have your big meal at lunchtime and a lighter meal as early as possible in the evening. If you find you are still hungry before bedtime, try one of the many protein-enriched power bars (without chocolate) for your bedtime snack.40.

If your aunt wants to rent a room from Feb.1st to Apri.1st, how much money should she pay? A. $160 B. $ 129 C. $ 209 D. $418DShyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people. Shy people are anxious and self-conscious; that is, they are over concerned with their own appearance and actions. Worrisome thoughts are constantly occurring in their minds; what kind of impression am I making? Do they like me? Do I sound stupid? Am I wearing unattractive clothes?It is obvious that such unco mfortable feelings must affect people unfavorably. A person’s self-concept is reflected in the way he or she behaves and the way a person think about themselves which has a deep effect on all areas of their lives. Shy people, who have low self-esteem(自尊), are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others. They need faith that they are doing “the right thing”. Shy people are very sensitive to criticism. It makes them feel inferior(自卑). They also find it difficult to be pleased by praises because they believe they are unworthy of praise. A shy person may respond to a praise with a statement like this one: “You’re just saying that to make me feel good, I know it’s not true.” It is clear that, while self-awareness is a healthy quality, overdoing it is harmful. Can shyness be completely got rid of, or at least reduced? Fortunately, people can overcome shyness with determination. It is important for people to accept their weaknesses as well as their strengths, for example, not fair for them to label themselves inferior because they have to be realistic. Living on the impossible leads to a sense of inadequacy(不适当,不充足). Each one of us has his or her own characteristics. We are interested in our own personal ways. The better we understand ourselves, the easier it becomes to live up to our chances for a rich and fulfilling life.48.The first paragraph is mainly about ______.A.the thoughts of shy people B.the cause of shynessC.the effect of shyness on people D.the questions in the minds of shy people★49.According to the writer, self-awareness is ______.A.harmful to people B.a weak point of shy peopleC.the cause of unhappiness D.a good characteristics50.What is the shy people’s reaction to praise?A.They are pleased by it B.They feel it is not trueC.They are very sensitive to it D.They feel they are worthy of it★51.We can learn from the passage that shyness can ______.A.block our chances for a successful lifeB.help us to live up to our full developmentC.enable us to understand ourselves betterD.have nothing to do with lack of self-esteemEWhile small may be beautiful,tall is just plain uncomfortable it seems,particularly when it comes to staying in hotels and eating in restaurants.The Tall Persons Club Great Britain(TPCGB),which was formed six months ago to campaign(发起运动)for the needs of the tall.has turned its attention to hotels and restaurants Beds that are too small,shower heads that are too low ,and restaurant tables with hardly any leg-room all make life difficult for those of above average height it says.But it is not just the extra-tail whose needs are not being met. The average height of the population has been increasing yet the standard size of beds,doorways,and chairs has remained unchanged.“The bedding industry says a bed should be six inches larger than the person using it ,so even a king-size bed at 6'6"(6feet and 6 inches) is falling short for 25%of men,while the standard 6'3" bed caters for(满足需要)less than half of the male(男性)population,"said TPCGB president Phil Heinricy ,"Seven-foot beds would work fine."Similarly ,restaurant tables can cause no end of problems Small tables,which mean the long-legged have to sit a foot or so away from them are enough to make tall customers go elsewhere.Some have already taken note, however At Queens Moat Houses’Caledonian Hotel in Edinburgh.6'6" beds are now put in as standard after requests for longer beds from taller visitors,particularly Americans.52. What is the purpose of the TPCGB campaign?A. To provide better servicesB. To rebuild hotels and restaurantsC. To draw public attention to the needs of the tallD. To attract more people to become its members53. Which of the following might be a bed of proper length according to Phil Heirtricy?A .7'2'' B. 7' C. 6'6'' D .6'3''★★54. What may happen to restaurants with small tables?A .They may lose some customersB. They may start businesses elsewhereC .They have to find easy chairs to match the tablesD .They have to provide enough space for the long—legged★★55. What change has already been made in a hotel in Edinburgh?A .Tall people pay more for larger bedsB. 6'6''beds have taken the place of 6'3''bedsC. Special rooms are kept for AmericansD. Guest rooms are standardizedFMoney MattersParents should help their children understand money. ★★56 So you may start talking about money when your child shows an interest in buying things, candy or toys, for example.1.The basic function of moneyBegin explaining the basic function of money by showing how people trade money for goods or services. It is important to show your child how money is traded for the things he wants to have.If he wants to have a toy, give him the money and let him hand the money to the cashier(收银员).57 When your child grows a bit older and understands the basic function of money, you can start explaining more complex ways of using money.2.Money lessonsApproach money lessons with openness and honesty. 58 If you must say no to a child’s request to spend money, ex plain, “ You have enough toy trucks for now.” Or, if the request is for many different things, say, “ You have to make a choice between this toy and that toy.”3.★59Begin at the grocery store. Pick out two similar brands of a product--- a name-brand butter and a generic (无商标产品),for example. You can show your child how to make choices between different brands of a product so that you can save money. 60 If he chooses the cheaper brand, allow him to make another purchase with the money ter, you may explain how the more expensive choice leaves less money for other purchases.A.
