1、Friends for life

动物们也过节啦，瞧它多快乐

DO you have a pet in your home? Did you remember to give it a big meal and lots of other

treats on Saturday? If not, you've made a big mistake, because October 4 was World Animal

Day, an official holiday for all animals acknowledged by the United Nations.

Liu Hui, a senior high school student in Beijing, made sure her pekinese dog (哈巴狗) named

Pipi had a very special time.

"There are many endangered (濒危) animals in the Amazon rain forests (亚玛逊雨林) and all

over the world that that need protecting," Liu said. "But they all sound far away to me so I just

let Pipi have a wonderful day.

"Pipi is my best friend. He is so clever that he understands every word I say to him. He is such

a good listener; I can tell him all my secrets, without worrying that he will tell them to others."

For Liu Hui, Pipi is just a friend. But for disabled people like Arthur, an American boy living in

Beijing, a pet can be a pair of eyes or ears, or even a pair of legs.

Arthur, 17, lost one of his legs in a car accident. His pet Maquis is a two-year-old German breed

dog. Maquis pulls Arthur's wheelchair to any place he asks and guards him when he is outside

of his home.

"Maquis is more than a friend - I love him," Arthur said. "I don't feel lonely or afraid if Maquis

is around. If other boys try to bully me, he will scare them away."

Animals are also useful in treating people with illness and disabilities. In the US, doctors use

dogs and cats as listeners to encourage shy boys and girls to speak in public.

A hundred years ago, an Italian priest called St. Francis started World Animal Day. TheUN sets

aside the special day, not only to persuade people to protect endangered animals, but also to

encourage them to show love for animals living in our society. World Animal Day is a wonderful

chance for us to show we care about animals and their welfare.

2、Caught in the Web?

你想在这似是而非的网络世界里寻找什么？是期待友谊还是打发无聊？ YOUR friends might be in Australia or maybe just down the road, but they are all just a few

clicks (点击) away. Life has changed for millions of teenagers across the world who now make

friends online. Whether you use chatrooms, QQ, MSN or ICQ, you are part of a virtual

community (虚拟社区).

"I rarely talk with my parents or grandparents, but I talk a lot with my old friends on QQ," said

Fox's Shadow, the online nickname (网名) used by a Senior 2 girl in Chna. "Eighty per cent of

my classmates use QQ after school."

QQ is the biggest messaging service in China. A record 4 million people used it one Saturday

night in October, according to Tencent, the company which developed QQ.

And Fox's Shadow might well have been one of them. "I log in on Friday nights, and Saturdays

or Sundays when I feel bored. I usually spend about 10 hours chatting online every week," she

said. "But I rarely talk with strangers, especially boys or men."

Even though she likes chatting, she is careful about making friends with strangers online. "You

don't know who you're talking to. You should always be careful about who you trust online."

Many people would like to meet offline when they feel they have got to know someone very

well. Fox's Shadow once met one of her online friends face to face. It was a girl who was a

comic fan like herself and they went to a comic show together.

However, not all teenagers have not been so fortunate. At the beginning of this year, a

17-year-old girl in Liaoning Province was raped(强奸) after meeting a friend she had found on

QQ. The criminals (罪犯) weren't caught until last month.

A 16-year-old Beijing boy, known online as Bart Simon, dislikes QQ users. "I used to chat on

QQ, but I found that most people were talking nonsense," he said. Now he chats online in

English, using MSN. "I only chat online because I've got friends in Japan, the US and

Singapore," he said. "I want to learn more about foreign cultures." But he spends little time

chatting as he sees it as a waste of time and money.

HELP "If you are really addicted to it, sometimes you just can't concentrate

(集中精神) in class," he said. "And the friends in your real life are always

more important than those so-called friends you meet online."

3、Crying in class

冬日荧屏向你展现和着欢笑与泪水的高三生活

LOVE, drugs, death and stolen exam papers —it's nothing like your high school but that's what

life is like for students in the new TV series "You're smiling while I'm crying"(《你在微笑我却哭了》).

Set at a high school in a beautiful coastal city, the 22-episode (集) drama, which can be seen

at the end of the year, follows a popular and talented student called Shen Xiao. The school is

A lifetime friendship

Thomas Jefferson and James Madison met in 1776. Could it have been any other year? They worked

together starting then to further American Revolution and later to shape the new scheme of government.

From the work sprang a friendship perhaps incomparable in intimacy1 and the trustfulness of collaboration

and induration. It lasted 50 years. It included pleasure and utility but over and above them, there were

shared purpose, a common end and an enduring goodness on both sides. Four and a half months before

he died, when he was ailing, debt-ridden, and worried about his impoverished family, Jefferson wrote to his

longtime friend. His words and Madison's reply remind us that friends are friends until death. They also

remind us that sometimes a friendship has a bearing on things larger than the friendship itself, for has

Why do people in all countries ride in buses to school，to work and to far places？Buses can go

where trains and airplanes cannot． They do not cost as much to travel on． Even though they may

not move as fast as airplanes and trains，they sometimes take people between two places

faster． This is because they may travel a more direct way，or may leave more often，or at better

times．

Buses come in different sizes． A small bus can carry only eight or ten people． A large one

might have seats for fifty to seventy people and have standing room for more．

Thousands of yellow school buses carry millions of children to school every year． Most of

these buses have seats placed quite close together to fit in as many children as possible． Some

schools buy their own buses． Others pay to use buses that belong to bus companies．

一、高中英语阅读理解

1．阅读理解

Last week, Vodafone started a test of the UK's first full 5G service, available for use by

businesses in Salford. It is part of its plan to trial the technology in seven UK cities. But what can

we expect from the next generation of mobile technology?

One thing we will see in the preparation for the test is lots of tricks with the new tech. Earlier

this year, operators paid almost £ 1.4 billion for the 5G wavelengths, and to compensate for that

cash, they will need to catch the eye of consumers. In September, Vodafone used its bit of the

range to display the UK's first hologram (全息) call. The Manchester City captain Steph Houghton

appeared as a hologram in Newbury. It isn't all holograms, however: 5G will offer faster internet

access, with Ofcom (英国通讯管理局) suggesting that video that takes a minute to download on

1《飞鸟集》精选

1夏天的飞鸟，飞到我的窗前唱歌，又飞去了。

Stray birds of summer come to my window to sing and fly away.

2 秋天的黄叶，它们没有什么可唱，只叹息一声，飞落在那里。

And yellow leaves of autumn， which have no songs， flutter and fall there with a sign.

3世界对着它的爱人，把它浩翰的面具揭下了。它变小了，小如一首歌，小如一回永恒的接吻The world puts off its mask of vastness to its lover. It becomes small as one song， as one kiss of the

eternal.

4是大地的泪点，使她的微笑保持着青春不谢。

It is the tears of the earth that keep her smiles in bloom.

5无垠的沙漠热烈追求一叶绿草的爱，她摇摇头笑着飞开了。 The mighty desert is burning for the love of a blade of grass who shakes her head and laughs and flies

away.

6如果你因失去了太阳而流泪，那么你也将失去群星了。

If you shed tears when you miss the sun， you also miss the stars.

7跳舞着的流水呀，在你途中的泥沙，要求你的歌声，你的流动呢。你肯挟瘸足的泥沙而俱下么？

The sands in your way beg for your song and your movement， dancing water. Will you carry the
