1 . When Hai started college, he weighed over 250 pounds Healthy food choices were difficult for him, and he was emotionally distraught (忧心忡忡). However, when he left home for college, he was able for the first time to start taking his life and weight into his own hands.

He started by shopping at a local farmers’ market, an experience that inspired him profoundly. The idea that a farmer’s market represents local, sustainable, healthy food with a human connection where you can interact with the people that grow your produce was extremely appealing to him, and he began to think about the food that people at his university were eating. From what he saw at farmers’ markets, Hai realized that dining hall food was not “rear” food A lot of it is frozen or processed, and has unhealthy additives. His ideas continued to develop as he started taking classes about food sustainability at university, and after the summer of 2014 during which he cooperated with other students9 he launched into his senior year at the University of California full force with the Real Food Challenge (RFC) campaign, a project he co-founded that aims to reinvest university spending in food that is “real”: ecologically-sound, community-based, humane, and fair; as opposed to those traditional purchases with those unhealthy additives and processed products.

Not only has Hai started a movement of change across the university dining system, but he has also grown extremely as an individual，now with strong leadership abilities and great vision. In addition, after he started learning about food sustainability and taking action at university, Hai has lost over 100 pounds, and has been able to start enjoying activities such as backpacking and swimming that were not a possibility for him previously. He is confident instead of distraught now.

1. When did Hai get the idea of “rear” food?

3. According to Hai, “real” food is .

2 . Good friends always make life seem so much easier and better.    1    I know that there is absolutely no need to give out definitions of a true friend or list out qualities that are synonymous,since the answers are subjective.

Togetherness

It is one of the most beautiful aspects.    2    Be it one of the dullest days of your life while you are killing time doing absolutely nothing,or be it one of your most memorable moments like your graduation or your birthday,friends are always with you.

Honesty

If you look hideous（难看的）in the dress you bought last week,a true friend will always tell you so!Honesty is needed in any relationship.    3    They are ready to give you a taste of the bitter truth,but they'll help you cope with it! Often,there comes a time when two friends are competing for the same thing,a true friend will never let a competition affect the friendship.

Understanding

Often when you are feeling low or depressed,you will never have to explain it to your friend that you are feeling low.    4    Understanding without words is the perfect level of a good relationship.

Patience

You need to have patience to understand your friend inside out.The mood swings,sign language,codes,etc. Friends are all this and much more.    5    They are a comforting shoulder to lean on,a patient ear to listen to you,and most importantly,a warm and loving hug to embrace you!

A．They are a helping hand.

B．A true friend knows when you are unhappy.

C．No matter what,friends always stick together!

D．True friends are always two steps behind you.

E．True friends never hesitate to speak up their minds.

F．Ask yourself what makes a good friend even if you doubt the ability to one yourself.

G．In our busy lives,at times when we feel down and upset, it is our friends who come through.

3 . My grandmother often said to me, “You can count the number of your true friends on the fingers of one hand.” For a long time I thought this was true. However, I’ve now discovered my grandmother was only half right. Maybe we do only make a few best friends in our lifetime, but those aren’t the only people that we can call friends. There are many different types. Let me tell you about a few of them.

One type of friends is the type I call the “football mom friend”. My neighbor Sally is a good example. We both have kids who play football in a football club, and someone has to take them to practice and pick them up. Sally and I and two other mothers take turns to do this. We meet sometimes and have tea and talk about what our kids are doing, but those are the only times that we meet each other. I enjoy being with these women, but we don’t do anything else together.

Another type is called the “hobby friend”. That’s the person you share an interest or a hobby with. Michael and Cater, who are brothers, are a good example of this type. We’re all in a bird watching club. Every few weekends the members of the club go on a trip to watch different kinds of birds. There’s nothing romantic about my relationship with Michael and Cater, of course. We just share interest in birds.

Then there’s the “other half of the couple” type of friends. Jim is married to Rose, a friend that I’ve known since college. When Rose married Jim, I realized that I would have to be Jim’s friend if I want to continue to be Rose’s. Jim and I don’t share so many interests, but we do have a friendly relationship.

1. What does the first paragraph tell us about?

A．We should make new friends.

B．We need true friends in our lifetime.

C．We must be friendly to all our friends.

D．We have rarely best friends in our lifetime.

2. Who is the writer’s true friend according to this passage?

A．Sally.	B．Rose.
C．Jim.	D．Michael.

3. What can we learn from the text?

A．The writer herself sometimes takes her kid to the football club.

B．Michael and Cater both fall in love with the writer.

C．Finally the writer agrees with her grandmother.

D．Sally and the writer are close friends.

4. From the last paragraph we learn that       .

A．the writer made friends with Jim only because of Rose

B．Jim was the writer’s good friend at college

C．Rose didn’t want the writer to be a friend of her husband

D．the writer made friends with Rose because of Jim

6 . Habits Of Highly Successful Students
Never Over-Study
When you spend too much time studying you will quickly lose focus and the time spent in studying will become ‘junk time’. You think you're studying but you're just sitting there re-reading the same sentence about 100 times and you're not getting anywhere. Instead, take regular breaks.    1    Besides, it will give your mind some time to take in what you have been doing.
    2    
Top students don't just randomly sit down and complete work. They actually plan what they are going to do: They actually plan the time they will study and they set goals for what will be achieved. If you want to be successful, do as successful people do. Set a plan and, set a goal and stick to it, which will create a routine and a routine is the first step towards developing a habit.    3    
Front Up To The Toughest Work First
Many of us like to do the easy things first to build our confidence. That’s fair enough. The only challenge with this approach is that you use up your primary energy at the start of any study period and so if you are dealing with the easy parts with your primary energy your batteries will be low when it comes the time to deal with the hard part. So what happens then?    4    We all do it. We really shouldn't, though. So develop the habit of giving your primary energy to the hard tasks and completing the easy stuff last.
    5    
Do we really have to explain this? Just turn them off for an hour, we promise the world will still be there when you log back in! Don't text your friends, don't chat while doing memory activities，don't make phone calls, just focus on what you're doing. Even if you focus on work' for 15 minutes followed by 5 mins of chatting, it’s better than 30 minutes of work while also chatting! You get that right?

A．Plan Your Study

B．Achieve Your Goal

C．Positive habits decide future success.

D．Taking breaks can make you get everywhere.

E．You get tired and impatient and just give up.

F．Get Off Social Networking Sites And Turn Off The Phone

G．Taking breaks will make you energetic again and refresh your mind.

8 . An eight-year-old girl heard her parents talking about her little brother. All she knew was that he was very sick and they had no money. Only a very expensive operation could save him now and there was no one to lend them the money.

When she heard her daddy say to her tearful mother, “Only a miracle can save him now,” the little girl went to her bedroom and pulled her money from its hiding place and counted it carefully.

She hurried to a drugstore (药店) with the money in her hand.

“And what do you want?” asked the salesman.

“It’s for my little brother,” the girl answered. “He’s really, really sick and I want to buy a miracle.”

“Pardon?” said the salesman.

“My brother Andrew has something bad growing inside his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him. So how much does a miracle cost?”

“We don’t sell a miracle here, child. I’m sorry,” the salesman said with a smile.

“Listen, if it isn’t enough, I can try and get some more. Just tell me how much it costs.” said the girl.

A well-dressed man heard it and asked, “What kind of a miracle does your brother need?”

“I don’t know,” she answered with her eyes full of tears. “He’s really sick and mum says he needs an operation. But my daddy can’t pay for it, so I have brought all my money.”

“How much do you have?” asked the man.

“$ 1.11, but I can try and get some more,” she answered.

“Well, what luck,” smiled the man. “$ 1.11, the price of a miracle for little brother.”

He took up the girl’s hand and said, “Take me to where you live. I want to see your brother and meet your parents. Let’s see if I have the kind of miracle you need.”

That well-dressed man was Dr Carlton Armstrong, a famous doctor. The operation was successful and it wasn’t long before Andrew was home again.

Dear Ken,

I am very exciting to learn that you’re coming to Beijing for the Olympics. Both my parent miss you a lot. So do our friend, Cathy. August is the best time of the year to visit Beijing, because of there is only a few rain and the weather is neither too hot or too cold. There are so many places I want to take you after I finish my work like a volunteer. When you come, you can stay with ourselves. My home is about three kilometers away from the National Stadium, knowing as the “Bird’s Nest”, where opening ceremony will be held.

Best regards,

Janet
