would have to promise to study it for at least one year．To that point Lin had had many hobbies，but none kept his interest for more than a week or two．His mum once gave him a bag of stamps to encourage stamp collecting．That hobby lasted a week．Then his father got him some paints hoping that Lin's artistic side would shine through．Those paints were now under his bed，still unopened．This time Lin's

surprise，Lin kept his promise．He studied cooking at the Centre every Saturday，and practised at home，making delicious meals for his family．Everyone looked forward to birthdays，when they could eat his cakes．Lin got great satisfaction from the pleasure his food brought to others．The months turned to years but his hobby never changed again．Now Lin is an adult and runs a successful restaurant．When

centuries．Before 1765，there were no restaurants．That is，there were no places that provided the restaurant experience．There was nowhere in which a waiter brought you food and drink that you picked from a menu．In fact，there were no menus anywhere．There were eating places travellers could go to centuries before that．The countryside was full of inns that would serve food．And there were taverns where one could get drinks．The rich could also eat special meals prepared by private cooks．But none of them could be called a "restaurant"．A man called Boulanger changed that．In 1765，he opened a place in Paris that sold soups（汤）．On his sign he used the word "restaurant" to describe what he was selling．At that time，soups were considered something that could help "restore"（恢复）your health﹣in French the word "restore" is "restaurer"﹣﹣﹣so he called the soups "restaurants"．Soon，people started buying Boulanger's soups even when they were not ill．And over time，people began to use the word "restaurant" to refer to a place selling soup rather than the soup itself．More "restaurants" opened in France，and people began to buy soups more often．Later，restaurants in Paris began to serve other food besides soup．In the 1790s，menus started to appear．By the mid﹣1800s，there were many types of restaurants throughout the world．The United States offered coffee shops．Tea houses became popular throughout China．Paris created beautiful restaurants for the rich．The British began to copy the French，and the restaurant idea spread throughout the British Empire．Today cities are filled with all types of restaurants．Diners have millions of options from which to choose．（1）What is the passage mainly about ？A．How restaurants developedB．What made a good restaurant．C．Who created the first restaurantD．Why restaurants became popular．（2）According to the first paragraph，what made restaurants different from earlier eating places ？A．Restaurants only served foodB．Restaurants were more expensiveC．Restaurants were mainly in citiesD．Restaurants had a list of meal choices（3）Who did Boulanger expect to come and eat at his restaurant ？A．Rich peopleB．Sick people．C．Travellers．D．Workers．（4）When it was first used．what did the word "restaurant" refer to ？A．A person．B．A place．C．Illness．D．Soup．（5）When did restaurants begin to grow internationally ？A．In the 1600s．B．In the 1700s．C．In the 1800s．D．In the 1900s．5．（10分）Many people know that rubbish is a big problem on planet Earth．Whatmany people don't know is that junk（垃圾）has become a problem in outer space too．According to BBC News，there are more than 22，000pieces of space junk floating around the earth．And these are just the things that we can see from the surface of the earth by telescopes （望远镜）．There are also millions of smaller pieces of junk that we can't see．Objects，like bits of old space rockets or satellites，move around the planet at very high speeds fast that even a very small piece can break important satellites or become dangerous to astronauts．If the tiniest piece of junk crashed into a spaceship，it could damage the vehicle．To make things worse，when two objects in space crash，they break into many smaller pieces．For example，when a U．S．satellite hit an old Russian rocket in 2009，it broke into more than 2，000pieces，increasing the amount of space junk．To reduce additional space junk，countries have agreed that all new space tools can only stay in space for 25years at most．Each tool must be built to fall safely into the earth's atmosphere after that time．In the upper parts of the atmosphere，it will burn up．Many scientists also suggesting different ways to clean up space junk．In England scientists are testing a metal net that can be fired into space junk．The net catches the junk and then pulls it into the earth's atmosphere to burn up．The Germans are building robots that can collect pieces of space junk and bring them back to Earth to be safely destroyed．The problem is becoming more challenging because we're sending more objects into space to help people use their mobile phones and computers，" says Marco Castronuovo，an Italian space Researcher．"The time to act is now．The longer we leave the problem，the bigger it will become，" he says．（1）What does the underlined word "these" in Paragraph 2refer to ？A．Telescopes．B．Satellites．C．Pieces of space junk．D．BBC news reports．（2）Why is space junk considered a problem ？A．It buns up after it re﹣enters the atmosphereB．It often stops the view of telescopes on EarthC．It could force new space tools to travel at slower speedsD．It may crash into other space tools causing damage or deat（3）Countries want future space tools to be able to fall back into the earth's atmosphere so that ．A．the tools can be reused laterB．the tools don't become space junkC．the earth's atmosphere can stay cleanD．the effects of space flight can be studied（4）How do the Germans plan to deal with space junk ？A．Catch it with nets．B．Use robots to collect it．C．Burn it in the earth's atmosphere．D．Send it further away from the earth．（5）In which section of the newspaper would you probably read this article ？A．Environment．B．Local News．C．Education．D．Fashion．6．（10分）Science

Some of them are thought to be bad habits. People spend countless hours each year trying to get rid of these bad habits but often fail. Why? Change demands hard work and there is no shortcut to achieve it. However, there is still some advice for you to follow.First, figure out why you do it. In other words, what's the result of doing this thing? If your bad habit is shouting at people when you are unhappy or under pressure, what do you get from it? It may make you feel a little better for a moment. Or maybe you have a bad habit of leaving your homework undone. The result could be that you get more time to spend on the Internet!Next, take a look at them on the other hand. What do you lose because of your bad habits? Shouting at other people is a bad habit because it makes people around you feel bad andunhappy. Leaving your homework undone is a bad habit because you may be punished by your teacher. Having more Internet time means that you lose the chance to learn things that you need to learn. When you think in this way, you'll find that it's not wise to keep your bad habit! Now it is time to make a decision. What will you choose? I'm sure you will choose to do what you think is more important.（1）From Paragraph 1, we know that ______.A a habit is a terrible thing that we can never changeB it takes people countless hours to get rid of their bad habits successfulC none of the people who try to break bad habits are successfulD though it is difficult, we can still do something about our bad habits（2）The underlined part "there is no shortcut to achieve it" means that "______".A it is not easy to get rid of bad habitsB there is a long way and a shortway C something dangerous may happen D we must cut it in a short time（3）According to the passage, if you want to get rid of your bad habits, you have to ______.A talk to others when you are in low spiritsB know why you do itC finish your homework firstD spend less time on the Internet（4）What does the underlined word "it" refer to in Paragraph 3?A Getting rid of the bad habits.B Forming good habits.C Spending countless hours.D Shouting at other people.（5）The main purpose of this passage is to ______.A introduce and describeB complain and disagreeC explain andadvise D discuss and argue4.The distance between ancient Rome and ancient China was about 4, 000 miles by land. There were terrible deserts and high mountains on the way. It was a very dangerous trip. The Silk Road was a nickname (别称) for any route that any trader took from China to Rome.For a very long time, the ancient Romans did not know who was making this wonderful cloth called silk. The Romans first discovered pieces of silk in the goods they took from some of the people they conquered (征服) . But those people did not know where the silk was made. They had traded for the silk.The Romans tried to find the traders as they came into villages to trade silk for other goods. But the traders did not know who made the silk either. In fact, the trading along the Silk Road was a relay (接力) system. One trader would travel for a while, stop and trade, and return home. The next trader would continue, stop and trade, and return home. And so it went. No trader made the whole trip because the trip was too dangerous. The desert had little or no water, and the mountains were dangerous and sand storms would blow up out of nowhere. Even the snakes were scary.The Romans were upset. The demand (需求) for silk in Rome had grown. Rome had gold and silver and treasure. They hoped to find "The Silk People" , as the Romans called these unknown people and trade with them. But they couldn't find them.The Romans sent out their men to follow the "Silk Road" and find the "Silk People". But most never returned because those who did said they could not make it through the desert. They had to turn around and come back.This went on for a very long time.As the years went by, along the Silk Road, temples appeared. There were even cities built on the oasis (绿洲) . It was never easy to travel by land from China to Rome. But it was worth it. Rome traded gold and treasure for China's silk and spices (香料) . But more things travelled along the Silk Road than traders and goods. Ideas travelled along the Silk Road as well. The ideas changed the world.（1）According to the passage, ______.A ancient Rome was about three thousand miles away from ancient ChinaB there were terrible deserts and high mountains between Rome and ChinaC ancient Romans traded directly with traders from ancient ChinaD ancient Romans wanted to conquer ancient China（2）The underlined part "it was worth it" probably means "______".A the thing was worth doingB the goods was expensiveC the Silk Road was valuableD the silk was worth buying（3）From the passage, we know ______.A ancient Rome was very poorB ancient Silk Road was very safeC ancient China's silk was very popularD ancient China was full of ancient Romans（4）Which is the correct order according to the passage?a. What the Silk Road meant.b. Some ideas spread along the Silk Road.c. How the traders traded along the Silk Road.d. Some temples appeared along the Silk Road.e. Ancient Romans hoped to find "The Silk People" .A c-a-e-b-dB c-b-a-d-eC a-b-c-d-eD a-c-e-d-b（5）What's the best title for the passage?A How the Silk Road formedB Travel from Rome to ChinaC Trade between Rome and ChinaD How Chinese started the Silk Road5.Guangzhou Museum************************************************************************************ Address: Zhenhai Tower, Yuexiu Mountain, GuangzhouExhibition: Guangzhou historyOpening Hours: 9:00~17:00Tel: (8620) 8355-0627Email: guangzhoubwg@126. comTransportation:Take Bus No. 24, 63, 103, 104, 109, 110, 122, 211 and get off at the Yuexiu Park station.

Chinese characters usually have more than one meaning and some of them are particularly loved by Chinese people. Here are the top six lucky ones. Please note we use "pinyin" here because "pinyin" is the Chinese spelling system for the characters. For example, "fu" is the "pinyin" for good luck in Chinese. "pinyin" "fu" is only the phonic (语音的) part of the character and if you want to know the meaning of good luck "fu", you must read the Chinese character 福 because "fu" also represents (代表) other Chinese characters that sound the same.1. 福 "fu" means blessing, good fortune, good luck. Chinese character 福 "fu" is one of the most popular ones used during Chinese New Year. It is often displayed upside down on the front door of a house or an apartment. The upside down 福 "fu" means good luck comes since the character for upside down in Chinese sounds the same as the character for "come".2. 禄 "lu" means prosperity.It is used to mean official's salary (薪水) in feudal (封建的) China.3. 寿 "shou" means longevity.Chinese character 寿 "shou" also means life, age or birthday.4. 喜 "xi" is happiness.The doubled character 喜 "xi" means double happiness. It is usually displayed everywhere at Chinese weddings.5. 财 "cai" is wealth or money.Chinese often say "money can make a ghost turn a millstone". It is to say money really can do a lot of things. But, still—money can't buy everything.6. 和 "he" means harmonious.People's harmony is an important part of Chinese culture. When you have harmonious relations with others, things will be a lot easier for you.（1）What does the word "character" mean in this passage?A Personality.B WordC RoleD Feature（2）We use ______ to show how to read the Chinese characters.A "pinyin"B spellingC ChineseD letters（3）What does the upside down 福 "fu" mean?A It means coming.B It means that good luck comes.C It means goodfortune. D It means that "fu" is upside down.（4）Which sentence is RIGHT according to the passage?A Money is a ghost.B Money can buy everything.C Money iseverything. D Money isn't everything.（5）After reading the passage, can we say that sound "he" only means harmony?A No, we can't.B Yes, we can.C I know several words read as "he".D Yes, you can.5.（1）If you want to be a teacher on Talkpal, you should ______.A give some of the payment got from your students to TalkpalB only ask some customers to come to your home for your classC reply to appointment requests from online customers by emailD join in English activities with members of Talkpal on weekends（2）Which of the following is RIGHT according to the "Job Description"?A Talkpal only needs English teachers.B Teaching students other skills besides English is a must.C The more skills teachers on Talkpal are good at, the better.D You can only write job title in the subject line of your email.（3）From the passage, we don't know the ______ of Talkpal.A company typeB websiteC industry typeD address（4）According to the last paragraph, Talkpal ______.A belongs to technology company of Shan Dian Hai ZanB is only a platform that presents English native speakersC can also find the pleasure of learning for Chinese learnersD has a coffee house, a nice restaurant, a quiet bar and others（5）Where does the passage probably come from?A A storybookB A guidebookC A newspaperD A textbook6.Talking about fires can be scary, but you can feel less worried if you are prepared.Know Your Way OutWhen a fire happens, the main idea is to get outside quickly and safely. Smoke from a fire can make it hard to see where things are, so it's important to learn and remember the different ways out of your home.Safety StepsIf you're in a room with the door closed when the fire breaks out, you need to take a few extra steps: If you see smoke coming under the door, don't open the door! If you don't see smoke, touch the door. If the door is hot or very warm, don't open the door! If you can't see any smoke around the door, you can open the door very carefully and slowly, When you open the door, if you feel a burst(突然爆发)of heat or smoke is pouring into the room, quickly shut the door and make sure it is really closed. If there's no smoke or heat when you open the door, go toward your escape route exit.Stay LowStay low to the ground as you make your way to the exit. In a fire, smoke and poisonous(有毒的) air hurt more people than the actual flames(火苗) do.

2018广州市中考英语分析报告综述中考英语已经落下了帷幕，今年2018年的题型、分值与去年保持一致，但是总体难度明显持平。

体现在以下模块：语法选择从句难点考查比例上升、完形词汇量减少，但课外单词数增加、阅读说明文的两篇仍以文化历史类说明文和科普类说明文为考查方向，应用文更强调英语在实际生活的运用；以及写作话题回归建议类作文，对解决问题能力的考查难度提升。

这些变化都提醒学生要重视基础，同时需培养更高的综合素质能力。

试卷结构分析今年广州市中考英语主要从五个维度对学生能力进行综合考查，分别是口语、听力、语法、完形阅读以及写作。

听说考试考查口语和听力的能力，先于笔试在每年5月进行，包括模仿朗读、信息获取和信息转述及询问三大题，满分40分，考试时长约20分钟。

笔试部分包括语法选择、完形填空、阅读理解和学做四大题，满分110分，考试时长为120分钟。

题型、题量和分值分布情况，具体见下表：考试模块题型题号题量总分听说模块模仿朗读－18信息获取第一节听取信息612第二节回答问题48信息转述及询问第一节信息转述18第二节询问信息24笔试模块语法选择1-151515完形填空16-251015阅读第一节阅读理解26-452040第二节阅读填空46-5055写作第一节单词拼写51-5666第二节完成句子57-63714第三节书面表达－115一、中考知识模块考点分析1»听说部分：听说的题型与去年一样，仍然保留直接给出问题，让学生需要自行捕捉信息要点，最后根据自己整理的答案进行复述的考查方式。

学生无法直接从题目中看到信息点直接摘录答案，而是需要理解问题后捕捉录音中的信息，再自行整理答案。

这对学生的听力要求较高，在捕捉细节能力的基础上，还要求有更高的听力理解能力以及关键信息点记录技巧。

因此，孩子以后在利用听力材料训练时，除了记录下问题的答案以外，尽量捕捉全文的讲解逻辑，这样更容易记录下关键的信息，并且能提高在复述时流畅性。

I waited anxiously, knowing that once I received it I would know how good a writer I really was.When the paper arrived at my classroom, I nearly knocked down five of my classmates to get to the first paper. With a school paper in my hands, I returned to my seat. About a month earlier, I had handed in one of what I believed to be my best stories. I named it The Symbol of Success. The head of the English Department at my school, Professor Cullen, had said that she would include some reviews of students' stories in the latest school paper. Professor Cullen was known for her rough criticism. Impressing her was very hard, but I wanted to be the first to do so.I sat at the edge of my seat as I read through the other story reviews. There wasn't one story that got more than three stars. I became calm and wasn't anxious to know my review. It was long after that when I heard someone shout out "Five stars? Seriously?" behind me. I turned around and saw the shocked expression on Gene's face, "Peter, your story gets five stars!" I couldn't believe what I was hearing. I turned my attention back to my story and saw the five stars at the end of the review that I had not read yet. I looked through the review written by Professor Cullen. She wrote that I had a gift for story writing.I was proud that I achieved what I thought was impossible. For so long I believed I wasn't so good as I thought I was and that my talent was not enough to cover up my lack of writing skills. But this review proved that I was truly a good writer and that there was a great future ahead of me in the field of fiction writing. The review and the five stars meant the world of me. Those five stars became the symbol of my success.（1）How did the writer get the school paper？A His teacher gave it to him first.B The publisher sent it to him first.C His friend hel ped him get the first one.D He rushed ahead to get the first one.（2）What can we learn about Professor Cullen？A She was very gentle to everyone.B She seldom praised her students.C She was ve ry cold to her students.D She was respected by her students.（3）We can learn from this text that Peter ______.A had thought his story was better than those of others'B was always anxious to know his reviewC didn't know he got five stars until Genetold him. D looked through a few stories that had got four stars.（4）What did Professor Cullen think of Peter's story?A She thought highly of it.B She thought it was just so-so.C She thought it was extremely bad.D She doubted if it was written by Peter.（5）Why did the review and the five stars mean the world to Peter?A Because they helped him learnwriting skills. B Because they made him happy for some time. C Because they helpedhim enter a key university. D Because they made him see his writing talent.4.It had been some time since Jack saw the old man who used to live next door. In the rush of his busy life, Jack had little time to think about the past and often had no time to spend with his family."Mr Belser died last night," one day, his mother told him on the phone. Memories flashed through his mind like an old film as he sat quietly remembering his childhood days. But in fact, it had been so long since Jack thought of him."Well, he didn't forget you. Every time I saw him, he'd recall the days you spent over 'his side of the fence'," his mum told him."He spent a lot of time teaching me things he thought were important...Mum," Jack said. "I'll be there for the funeral（葬礼）." As busy as he was, he kept his word. He caught the next flight to his home town.The night before he had to return home, Jack and his mum looked at the old house next door one more time. Standing in the doorway, Jack stopped suddenly. "What's wrong, Jack?" his mum asked. "The box is gone," he said. "There used to be a small gold box that he kept locked on top of his desk. I must have asked him a thousand times what was inside. All he'd ever tell me was 'the thing I value most'."About two weeks later, Jack received a package（包裹）. On it, the name Mr Harold Belser caught his attention. He couldn't wait to open the package and a familiar small old gold box appeared in front of him. In it, there was a beautiful gold pocket watch with a note. Jack's hands shook as he read these words: "Jack, thanks for your time! Harold Belser.""The thing he valued most...was...my time." Jack held the watch for a few minutes, then cleared his appointments（预约）for the next two days. "Why?" Janet, his assistant asked. "I need some time to spend with my mother, wife and son," he said. "Oh, by the way, Janet...thanks for your time!"（1）From the passage, we know Mr Belser used to be Jack's ______.A grandfatherB fatherC neighbourD teacher（2）Jack was a man who ______.A was busy with workB was bored with lifeC didn't know how to return others' helpD didn't know how to get on well with others（3）The underlined word "familiar" probably means "______" in the passage.A strangeB fashionableC dirtyD well-known（4）According to the passage, we can infer（推断）______.A Mr Harold Belser's box was full of goldB Mr Harold Belser valued the time he used to spend with JackC Jack will spend lots of time doing business to make his family live a happy lifeD Jack will take his wife and son to his home town to live together with his mother（5）What does the writer want to tell us through the passage?A We should be nice to all the old people.B We should spend more time with our family.C We should work hard to make enough money.D We should thank the people who often help us.5.Sunshine Secondary School Science FairSUNSHINE SECONDARY SCHOOL PRESENTSStudent Science FairFor Students in Grades 7-9Dates: August 30-31Place: Sunshine Secondary School GymExplore Your World...Think like a ScientistThe Student Science Fair offers you a great way to put your science knowledge to use!

After the game, the two girls wanted to cool off, so they decided to jump into the ocean for a little relief. The water was crowded, but that just added to the fun. It was cool and wet, and the waves were just right. Some people were surfing both on surfboards and body boards, while others were swimming out to the buoys（浮标）. The two girls had fun swimming in the water.About half an hour later, the two girls felt a little tired and came to the coast. On the coast, they saw two boys digging for sea shells.

believe that there are more than 8million restaurants in the world today．So it might surprise you to learn that restaurants，as we know them，have only existed for a few centuries．Before 1765，there were no restaurants．That is，there were no places that provided the restaurant experience．There was nowhere in which a waiter brought you food and drink that you picked from a menu．In fact，there were no menus anywhere．There were eating places travellers could go to centuries before that．The countryside was full of inns that would serve food．And there were taverns where one could get drinks．The rich could also eat special meals prepared by private cooks．But none of them could be called a "restaurant"．A man called Boulanger changed that．In 1765，he opened a place in Paris that sold soups（汤）．On his sign he used the word "restaurant" to describe what he was selling．At that time，soups were considered something that could help "restore"（恢复）your health﹣in French the word "restore" is "restaurer"﹣﹣﹣so he called the soups "restaurants"．Soon，people started buying Boulanger's soups even when they were not ill．And over time，people began to use the word "restaurant" to refer to a place selling soup rather than the soup itself．More "restaurants" opened in France，and people began to buy soups more often．Later，restaurants in Paris began to serve other food besides soup．In the 1790s，menus started to appear．By the mid﹣1800s，there were many types of restaurants throughout the world．The United States offered coffee shops．Tea houses became popular throughout China．Paris created beautiful restaurants for the rich．The British began to copy the French，and the restaurant idea spreadthroughout the British Empire．Today cities are filled with all types of restaurants．Diners have millions of options from which to choose．（1）What is the passage mainly about？A．How restaurants developedB．What made a good restaurant．C．Who created the first restaurantD．Why restaurants became popular．（2）According to the first paragraph，what made restaurants different from earlier eating places？A．Restaurants only served foodB．Restaurants were more expensiveC．Restaurants were mainly in citiesD．Restaurants had a list of meal choices（3）Who did Boulanger expect to come and eat at his restaurant？A．Rich peopleB．Sick people．C．Travellers．D．Workers．（4）When it was first used．what did the word "restaurant" refer to？A．A person．B．A place．C．Illness．D．Soup．（5）When did restaurants begin to grow internationally？A．In the 1600s．B．In the 1700s．C．In the 1800s．D．In the 1900s．5．（10分）Many people know that rubbish is a big problem on planet Earth．What many people don't know is that junk（垃圾）has become a problem in outer space too．According to BBC News，there are more than 22，000pieces of space junk floating around the earth．And these are just the things that we can see from the surface of the earth by telescopes （望远镜）．There are also millions of smaller pieces of junk that we can't see．Objects，like bits of old space rockets or satellites，move around the planet at very high speeds fast that even a very small piece can break important satellites or become dangerous to astronauts．If the tiniest piece of junk crashed into a spaceship，it could damage the vehicle．To make things worse，when two objects in space crash，they break into many smaller pieces．For example，when a U．S．satellite hit an old Russian rocket in 2009，it broke into more than 2，000pieces，increasing the amount of space junk．To reduce additional space junk，countries have agreed that all new space tools can only stay in space for 25years at most．Each tool must be built to fall safely into the earth's atmosphere after that time．In the upper parts of the atmosphere，it will burn up．Many scientists also suggesting different ways to clean up space junk．In England scientists are testing a metal net that can be fired into space junk．The net catches the junk and then pulls it into the earth's atmosphere to burn up．The Germans are building robots that can collect pieces of space junk and bring them back to Earth to be safely destroyed．The problem is becoming more challenging because we're sending more objects into space to help people use their mobile phones and computers，" says Marco Castronuovo，an Italian space Researcher．"The time to act is now．The longer we leave the problem，the bigger it will become，" he says．（1）What does the underlined word "these" in Paragraph 2refer to？A．Telescopes．B．Satellites．C．Pieces of space junk．D．BBC news reports．（2）Why is space junk considered a problem？A．It buns up after it re﹣enters the atmosphereB．It often stops the view of telescopes on EarthC．It could force new space tools to travel at slower speedsD．It may crash into other space tools causing damage or deat（3）Countries want future space tools to be able to fall back into the earth's atmosphere so that．A．the tools can be reused laterB．the tools don't become space junkC．the earth's atmosphere can stay cleanD．the effects of space flight can be studied（4）How do the Germans plan to deal with space junk？A．Catch it with nets．B．Use robots to collect it．C．Burn it in the earth's atmosphere．D．Send it

invented by Alexander Graham Bell．（1）fact，an Italian named Antonio Meucci was officially recognised（认定）as the inventor a few years ago．Who is Meucci and why wasn't he known for his invention at the time？Antonio Meucci was born in Italy in 1808．He studied engineering and drawing．During his studies，Meucci started to experiment with electricity．（2）When two places were connected with wire，people in those places could hear each other talk．In 1850，Meucci and his wife．Ester．moved to New York．Meucci was worried about his wife，because she had become very ill．（3）To solve this problem，he connected metal cables between his home and his workshop．This way，they could talk to each other conveniently．Meucci invited a group of people to see his new invention．They listened in amazement as the voice of a singer was heard through the wires．（4）Even worse，Meucci never applied for a patent （专利）on his invention．Meanwhile，Alexander Graham Bell was working on the same idea and in 1876the patent for the telephone was given to him．In 2002，more than a century after Meucci's death，his work was finally recognised by the government．（5）A．He discovered that sound could travel through metal cables．B．However，he wasn' t the first person to think of the idea．C．Unfortunately，only a few people attended this talk．D．He will now be known all over the world as the telephone's inventor．E．He needed

through．Those paints were now under his bed，still unopened．This time Lin's parents would let him decide．Lin's eyes moved down the noticeboard that listed all the courses on offer．He stopped at "Photography"．He liked the idea of taking beautiful pictures but the notice said that each student needed their own camera．Although Lin's family weren't poor，they weren't rich either，and a camera cost a lot of money．He continued looking．The next course to catch his eye was "Language Art"．He didn't even know what that meant．His father explained that it taught people how to make public speeches．Lin，a shy boy，could think of nothing worse．Then he saw it．"Cooking" sounded like something he'd like to do．It was inexpensive and convenient，it could be done alone and it was also creative．Based on Lin's hobby history，his dad had doubts，but he agreed．Much to his parents' surprise，Lin kept his promise．He studied cooking at the Centre every Saturday，and practised at home，making delicious meals for his family．Everyone looked forward to birthdays，when they could eat his cakes．Lin got great satisfaction from the pleasure his food brought to others．The months turned to years but his hobby never changed

They are important to teenagers, although not all of them have to do with their subjects.RuleⅠ: Life is not fair. Try to learn to get used to it. Many people won't understand the real meaning of this rule until they've failed to find fairness again and again.RuleⅡ: The real world won't care about you as much as your school does. It will expect you to learn to understand the real world after you leave school. Then you'll be sure of what to do with the real world.RuleⅢ: If you think your teacher is terrible, wait until you get a boss. Your boss won't ask you how you feel about your work and will never give you more care or help. He'll only care about how much money you can help him earn.RuleⅣ: TV is not real life. Your life is not a sitcom. Your problems won't be solved in 30 or 45 minutes. In real life, people usually have to leave the coffee shops to look for jobs.RuleⅤ: Smoking does not make you look cool. Instead, it makes you look moronic (低能的). At the same time, purple hair and pierced body parts make you look like a silly kid.

I heard him saying to the man in front of me, "I don't want to steal from this store. And would you buy me some food?"The man in front of me pretended（假装）not to hear him. I waited patiently for my turn to be questioned, but it never came. So I asked him, "Can I buy you something to eat?"He gladly accepted. The man got a bag and began putting samosas（三角饺子）in the bag. As my things were being rung up I watched the man put the samosas into the bag: 1, 2, 3. . . He finally stopped and I asked him how many he had got and he replied 10.The cashier（收银员）looked at me surprisingly and then added them to my order. After I was through, the man was moving around the store and said he wanted something to drink, too. The cashier seemed to be keeping a close eye on him. I admit I was too, as I didn't want him to steal anything either! I told the cashier that if he got a drink, I'd just pay for it.In the end, we both ended up leaving the store, but he stood right outside holding the samosas and saying to me "Thank you! Thank you!".This man's situation saddened me. I thought about the watchful eye the cashier and I kept over him. Maybe for different reasons, but still. In fact, if we pay a little more attention to these men, they can live happier lives. And then, our society will become more harmonious （和谐的）and peaceful. Thinking about this, I hope to run into him again someday.
