Great changes have taken place in our school since we took part in the civilized norms month activity. Now most of us can act better than before. We can get on well with our teachers and classmates. Some of us are so careful that we often help close the windows or the doors or turn off the lights. Some of us are kind enough to help the students in need.Sadly, some of us pay no attention to what they are doing. For example, they care nothing about the environment. Sometimes they throw away rubbish here and there, and make a lot of noise in public. They are too impatient to wait in line. A few of us say bad words or quarrel with others.In my opinion, as a student, we should act in a polite way. I hope we will have more activities like this. So we can learn more from these activities. I’m sure we can live happily if we try our best.书面表达：评分标准：先根据文章整体内容和语言表达确定档次，然后在该档次内评出分数。

AThe Smallest Life Around UsTiny plants and animals live all around us．We cannot see them because they are so small，but they are everywhere. They live in the soil，in the air，and in rivers and oceans．They grow on mountains and in caves．Some live in the ice at the north and south poles; some live where it is very hot．They are found throughout cities and in the country. They grow on other plants and animals．Some are even living on you，on your skin，hair，and inside your body，in yourmouth ，nose ，and all through your body ．These tiny plants and animals are called microbes ．The word microbe is made from two other words ：micro ，meaning small ，and bios ，meaning life ．So ，microbe means small life ． Microbes have been on eart h for a very long time ．They may have been the first forms of life to be alive ．Today there are more microbes in the world than all other living things ．People did not know microbes had existed （存在） long ．They were too small for them to see ．But people did see many changes in their world ﹣important changes ．And they did not know what caused them ．They saw food that they kept too long change color and begin to smell bad ．They saw cuts and wounds grow red and painful and become worse. They saw old plants and leaves and trees crumble apart on the forest floor and disappear into the soil ．Such changes were a natural part of the world ，but people did not understand them ．They did not know these changes were evidence(证据) of tiny plants and animals growing all around them.23．Why couldn't people see microbes ？A ．Because they are too small ．B ．Because they live inside our body ．C ．Because they live far from humans ．D ．Because they may have been the first forms of life to be alive ．24．The underlined phrase" crumble apart" in the last paragraph means" "．A ．grow tallerB ．change into soilC ．break into tiny piecesD ．become colorful and energetic25．Choose the answer that completes the web below ． Evidence thatmicrobes existCuts and wounds get red and painful Leaves disappearinto soil?A ．Microbes are very small B ．Microbes are all around us C ．People can't see microbes D ．Food begins to smell badBI used to think that life in Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania, was filled with never-changing styles. I hated that everyone seemed to know everything about everyon e else. Everyone seemed to enjoy talking about other people and their lives. I also didn’t like the fact that people seemed very close-minded. I felt trapped. I felt like I was missing . It seemed to me that city life would be the opposite.Then I took my first trip to New York City. I couldn’t wait to experience the city. However, when I arrived in the Big Apple, it wasn’t at all what I had imagined. I knew it was home to thousands of people, but I hadn’t had the least expectation to see so many people on the street at one time. All the streets were filled with people. I also felt a little surprised to see that everyone was in a hurry and everything moved at such a fast pace(步伐). When I took the su bway for the first time, I said hello to the middle-aged woman next to me. She looked at me with dislike anddidn’t say a word.After just one day, I realized how important my small town is to me. Now I miss the familiar faces I see every day. I like the feeling of safety and belonging m y town offers. Jim Thorpe gives me a sense of community and togetherness that the city doesn’t provide. I realize just how much a simple hello does for a stranger — it really can make your day a little better.My big trip showed me that my small town really has its own values in me that I didn’t even know I had.

Differences between big cities and small townsCWhen US student Olivia Priedeman, 17, woke up one morning, she thought she had had a dream ab out making plans with a friend.But it wasn't a dream. Her phone showed that during the night, Priedeman had read a text message from her friend. She did it while she was fast asleep.Reading and sending text messages while asleep called─"sleep texting"─is an unusual sleep behaviour, similar to sleep walking. It's also a growing problem among doctors: young people can’ t live without their cell phones.One in three teenagers sends more than 100 text messages a day, according to the Pew Internet & American Life Project. And at least four out of five teenagers said they sleep with their phone on or near their bed.Elizabeth Dowdell, a professor at Villanova University in Pennsylvania, has studied sleep texting. She said that having a phone nearby all night is a big part of the problem.Andrew Stiehm, a sleep medicine researcher with Allina Health in Minnesota, agrees. It's possible for the part of the brain that controls skills to wake up, while the part of the brain that controls memory and judgment(判断) may be still asleep. That's why some people can perform basic movements-such as walking, talking, texting or even driving while they're sleeping. Some of Dowdell's students said that they're disturbed by their nighttime texting behaviour. But because sleep texting is unconscious, it's a difficult habit to break. Dowdell said she knows of some students who wear socks on their hands to keep themselves from texting.Marjorie Hogan, a doctor at Hennepin County Medical Centre in Minneapolis, Minnesota,suggests keeping all electronic products outside the bedroom.29.
