It was summertime. Donna walked into the classroom. “ Good afternoon, everybody !” That was a joke Donna told every day. Usually the class started with only two or three students in the classroom, and then the other students came as the minutes went by.

Donna knew that the students didn’t like studying English. The head teacher had told her the reason. The students thought English was confusing.

Donna waited until all the students were sitting in their seats. She smiled and said, “ Okay, well. Let’s get started. Please turn to Page 36. Today we’re studying participles as adjectives（分詞作形容詞）. Students often feel confused when they learn about the present and past participles, so we need to practice a lot. Today, we’re just going to practice using present participles as adjectives.” Donna looked at all the blank faces around the classroom. Then she wrote two sentences on the blackboard.

“ The present participle tells us what kind of emotion the subject（主語）is causing. For example, when we say ‘grammar is boring’, we mean that the subject—grammar — causes an emotion of boredom. If we say, ‘The movie is interesting’, we are saying that the movie causes an emotion of interest. Any questions so far ? Is anyone confused ? ”

The classroom was quiet. Donna knew it would take some time for everyone to understand what she was talking about. After a while, Donna got a little excited because she saw looks of understanding on some of the students’ faces.

1.When did the story take place ?

A. On a spring morning. B. On a winter afternoon.

C. On a summer afternoon. D. On an autumn evening.

2.How did Donna explain the usage of present participles as adjectives ?

C. By giving examples. D. By showing a movie.

3.Why was the classroom quiet ?

A. Because the students were afraid of Donna.

B. Because Donna asked the students to be quiet.

When we buy a house, we all want to have nice neighbours, because most of us think that it is helpful to live with some good neighbours. But what kind of neighbour is good? The answers are different from people to people. Here are my answers.

First, it is very important to respect (尊重) each other. If our neighbour tries to know more about our life, what will we feel? He or she may also talk with others about our life. Do you want to live with him or her any more? The answer is “No”. We will feel very sad to have this kind of neighbour and move away quickly.

Next, a good neighbour is always ready to give us a hand when we need him or her. For example, if we are not at home, our good neighbour will watch our house for us.

Finally, a good neighbour should love the environment (環(huán)境). He or she never puts rubbish here and there. Good neighbours should keep the place clean, because the good environment can make us comfortable and happy.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容和首字母提示，在下文空格處填入適當?shù)脑~使短文完整。在答題卡標有題號的橫線上，完整地寫出空缺處各單詞的正確形式。(每空一詞)

Usually, you don’t find the same words in different languages. But there is an exception for the word “OK”!

The word OK first appeared in the Boston Morning Post on March 23, 1839.

It was an abbreviation of the phrase “oll Korrect”, an incorrect s1. of “all correct”. Although it began as a joke, people later u2. the phrase on documents(文件) or through telegraphs(電報) to say that all was well.

This year, OK celebrated its 179th b3.. We use this expression countless times every day. “How about two o’clock? OK?” “OK then.” The word OK is e4. to say, write and understand.

Besides, it is more neutral(中立的) than many words. Allen Metcalf, American author of OK : The Improbable story of America’s Greatest Word, told The Times, “What OK provided that other words did not was neutrality, a way to express agreement w5. having to offer an opinion.” For example, if someone asks you to go for a walk after lunch, you can s6. answer “OK”. There you go — no extra opinions.

OK can be spelled in different ways: okay or O.K. they are all p7. the same. But “OK” is the most widely accepted spelling and is often used in writing. Some people, however, like the spelling “okay” b8. it looks more like a word.

Sometimes, people also say short forms of OK like “K”. For example, someone might say, “I’m just going to the supermarket, but I’ll be b9. in 10 minutes.” You could reply with “K”.

OK is so useful that it’s said worldwide. You may not know the l10. of someone you’re talking with, but saying “OK” with gestures(手勢) can help you communicate.

How to have a good school life

Your schooldays should be some of the best and happiest days of your life. How can you get the most from them, and be sure you do not waste(浪費) this great chance to learn?

Be active at school Don’t say things that are difficult or boring. Take interest in school life and your school subjects. Join lots of activities. Put up your hands quickly in class. Go around the school with a big smile.

Keep fit If you don’t eat healthily in the morning, you will be thinking about food in class. If you go to bed late and don’t have enough sleep, you will be sleepy in class. Play enough sports every day to keep your body strong.

Face the problem Do not say you will do things tomorrow. If you get behind the class, it is very difficult to get back in the front. You cannot finish the race if you rest all the time. Everyone fails some exams, loses some matches and has bad days. Don’t make small problems very big and important. Don’t forget to ask for help. You are young, and no one thinks you must do everything quite well!

Spend the weekends Go and play sports, get together with friends in the park to relax, learn to play the piano, or help someone with problem. If you don’t want to go out, there are also a lot of things to do. You may read a book, practice English or help Mum with housework.

Follow our advice, and have a happy school life!
