Passage 1

J. K. Rowling, author of the Harry Potter book series, began writing at age 6. In

her biography(传记), she well remembers her good friend, Sean, whom she met in

secondary school, helped build her confidence in becoming a very good writer. "He was

the first person to know my serious dream to be a writer. He was also the only person

who thought I was certain to be a success at it, which meant much more to me. "

Rowling met many difficulties in her writing, especially fantasy(幻想) stories.

It wasn't until l990 that she first got the idea about Harry Potter. As she recalls, it was

on a long train journey from London to Manchester that "the idea of Harry Potter simply

fell into my head. I didn't have a pen with me, and I was too shy to ask anybody if I

could borrow one. I think, now, that this was probably a good thing, because I simply

sat and thought, for four (delayed train) hours, and all the details appear in my brain,

and this thin, black-haired, glasses-wearing boy who didn't know he was a wizard(男巫)became more and more real to me. "

That same year, her mother passed away after a ten-year illness, which deeply

affected her writing. She went on to marry and had a daughter, but separated from her

husband shortly afterwards.

During this time, Rowling suffered from depression(抑郁症). She, out of

work, completed her first novel in the cafes, where she could get her daughter to fall

asleep. After being refused by l2 publishing houses, the first Harry Potter novel was

sold to a small British publishing house. 2 Now with seven books sold nearly 400 million copies in 64 languages, J. K.

Rowling is the highest earning novelist in history. And it all began with the confidence

of a friend!

Are you tired of getting "Storage Almost Full" situation when you try to record

THE moment? Then you will love this app.

The idea came out when I went to Raptors game in Toronto to enjoy the heat of

NBA. Raptors were losing the whole game. But at the last quarter, they were about to

come from behind and win! The crowed got warmed up, and I really wanted to record

the moment! Then the stupid "Storage Almost Full" moment came along. First, I deleted

10 of the least important apps. And then I had to record 5 seconds, and delete the video,

and also delete from deleted picture folder, and repeat…like 1000 times… Well, it

wasn't actually 1000 times but I did a lot, and also lost the moment. All I wanted was a

5 seconds video of the historic moment for my Instagram(照片分享). And the idea for

this app dawned on me.

"What if I could keep video recording but only catch the last 5 seconds? "

THIS 'MOMENT' APP EXACTLY DOES THAT

—It lets you WAIT AS LONG AS YOU WANT WHILE RECONDING as if it has

endless storage.

—It catches last 5 or 10 seconds based on your choice.

—It's super simple that even my grandma can use it.

—Once again, DON'T WORRY ABOUT YOUR STORAGE, the app will handle

just fine.

All you have to do is just hold your camera while you're waiting for THE moment

like: 4 —when Curry scores a three-points

—when your friend enters the room for a surprise birthday party

—when your dog catches a Frisbee(飞盘)

—when you finally jump off from the top of stairs on your skateboard and land

safe Simple and Sweet

I hope it makes your life stress-free by reducing one small but annoying problem.

A. To describe an app. B. To promote an app.

C. To develop an app. D. To design an app.

Passage 1

My father's family is not a musical family. They are a family of words. My brother

has my father's dark hair, his love of a good argument. I take after my mother. From her

I got a curious nature, a sense of adventure, bright red hair. I did not, however, have a

talent for the piano. That fact was seen beyond doubt after unsuccessful attempts to

draw music from me.

The piano lessons began when I was four. My mother was convinced that I

would be a child Mozart. She found the ideal teacher — Madame Oblenka, a strict

Russian woman, whose pursed lips were enough to frighten a wild horse into

submission (服从). Madame Oblenka, who expected a little Mozart, was not very happy

to find a little girl banging her fists(拳头) on the keys.

I tried to please her. "Feel the music, " she urged. I "felt" it and closed my ear

Passage 1

Many schools now serve breakfast as well as lunch. A lot of kids who take part can

end up eating two breakfasts one at home and one at school. People are concerned that

these kids may become overweight. In fact, Marlene Schwartz, a psychologist who

studies the phenomenon (现象) of overweight, notes that’s not what her data has shown

in her new study.

Her group studied some 600 middle school students. Over three years, students in

fifth, sixth and seventh grades were asked about their breakfast. Throughout the study

bout 34 to 44 percent of all students said they regularly ate breakfast at home. Up to 17

percent or almost one in every six kids regularly ate breakfast at school. Overall, about

one in every 10 kids reported having breakfast both at home and at school. And eating

Passage 1

People often ask me for suggestions about how to learn English. As for it, everyone

is different. I’ll share some of my experience. I once took a school year English course

in Wuhan University, but I mostly learned English on my own.

One thing I can tell you is that, once you start learning, you should try to think in

English as much as you can. If you see something when you’re riding your bike or

walking down the street, just think about “How would I say them in English?” At first,

it might be with simple words or phrases, but later you should think about longer

phrases and sentences. Now I am in America, and for most of the time, I would think

in English and speak it directly. It is amazing how much this helps.

For several years after I started learning, I was often afraid of talking with others
