It is reported that bags are getting bigger all the time，and that there are more bags per person on the street today than at any other time in history．If this is true，possible explanations could include the wide use of small electric and electronic devices，a reading-material explosion，a popular interest toward tight or pocket less clothing，or cheap bagmaking labor overseas.

But，much as nature finds ways—such as disease—to control overpopulation，city life has thrown up impediments(障礙) to bags．To enter many public buildings，such as theatres and railway stations，you must go through a search or go bagless．The city has countless bag rules．It is hard to keep them all straight，and you're never sure，when leaving home for the day，whether it might be a bad idea to bring one along．

Last week，the New York Public Library got in the game．Students，researchers，writers，historians，and anyone else who has got used over the years to treating the vast Rose Main Reading Room as an office or a reading room came up against a new rule．You are no longer allowed to bring a bag larger than eleven inches by fourteen inches into the library．If you walk in with one，you must leave it at the coat check．You may keep its contents with you，however，and the library provides big clear plastic bags for them．You return them when you come back for your own bag．

What the library is trying to prevent，in this case，is people taking things out，rather than bringing things in．A librarian said on the second day，”It’s a big change for people who used to come and bring in half their flats．The people who use the library responsibly will continue to do so．The people who steal will continue to get away with it，if they really want to．”

1.How many reasons does the author list to explain the changes related to bags?

A. 2 B. 3 C. 4 D. 5

2.What do the bag rules in many public buildings require people to do?

A. Have their bags examined. B. Pay for bringing in bags.

C. Leave the places bagless. D. Use big clear plastic bags.

3.What is the purpose of the new rule at the New York Public Library?

A. To change people’s way of reading.

B. To prevent people stealing things.

C. To help people better use the library.

D. To stop people from bringing in dangerous things.

4.How is the effect of the new rule according to the librarian?

A. Excellent． B. Satisfactory． C. Harmful． D. Limited．

Dear Mr Smith,

I am writing to tell you anything about the 10th English Speaking Contest I took part in it last week in our school.

I got the “Top Ten Prize” out of the 30 competitors ,who was completely beyond my imagination. A moment I heard the final result, I couldn’t believe my ears and jumped with joy, feeling amazing. Since the contest, whenever you had free time, you would help me practice my spoken English. You communicated with me, and corrected my pronounce. What’s more, you taught me a lot of speaking skills and made me full of confidence. If you haven’t helped me, I couldn’t have achieved such a good result. I have benefited this contest a lot.

All in all, thank you for which you have done for me.

Yours,

Wang Yuan

Nowadays parents and their children are spending less and less time communicating with each other.1. It is reported that American parents today spend about 40 percent less time with their children than parents did a generation ago. To keep your family time creative and enjoyable, below is a list of helpful family time tips.

（1）Eat together & listen to each other

Most children today don’t know the meaning of a family dinnertime. Yet the communication and unity built during this time is necessary to a healthy family life. Sharing a meal together allows parents and their children the opportunity to talk about each other’s lives.2..

（2） Read often

It’s important for parents to read to their children. The latest research shows that reading to your children develops an interest in knowledge and contributes to language development. It also increases their concentration on things and helps them become more curious.3. After reading, ask questions about what the books are about.

（3）Start a hobby or project

Choose a fun activity that your children are interested in. Activities like cooking, fishing or biking can be their great hobbies.4.. Once a child learns a new skill, let him or her take the lead under your direction.

（4）Plan a family outing

5.. Jump into the family car and go for a drive. Prepare a picnic lunch and visit a local park. Take time to play or ride a bike. A slow and relaxing walk in the woods will help parents communicate with their children better. Also, a visit to the zoo or museum will inspire enthusiasm in a child and lead to long discussions.

A. It is very important for children to exercise.

B. They can open the door to exciting family time.

C. Sometimes getting out of the house is important.

D. Look for books that your children would enjoy reading.

E. New technology has made video games more popular with children.

F. This is also a time for parents to listen and give advice to their children.

G. As a result, many children are getting less love than their parents once got.
