30、id“Im looking for my uncle,MrWhiteI believe he is staying here” “He was staying here”MrsCrump corrected him“But Im afraid that he went back toLondon yesterday” “Oh,dear,”said the young man,looking disappointed“I understood that he was going to stay here until the end of the monthAt least that is wha
31、t his servant told me when I rang up his house” “Quite right,”said Mrs,Cramp“He intended to stay here the whole of July,as he always does But yesterday he got a telegram to say that his relative was illSo he caught the train back to London immediately” “I wish he had let me know,”The young man said“
32、I wrote him a letter saying that I was comingIve had all this trouble for nothingWell,since he isnt here,theres no point in waiting” He thanked MrsGrump and went outMrsGrump went to the window and watched himdrive offWhen his car was out of sight,she called out:“You can come out now, MrWhite. Hes go
33、ne” MrWhite came out of the kitchen,where he had been waiting “Many thanks,MrsGrump,”he said,laughing,“you did that very wellThese nephews of mine never gave me any peaceThat young man is the worst of them allAs you see,when heneeds money, he even follows me into the countryWell,perhaps next time he

36、write to him often Dthey usually visit him in hotels BProverbs (谚语) are quite common in spoken English. We dont normally put them in a composition or a letter. Sometimes it is helpful if you know what common proverbs mean. Here are a few examples.1)“Once bitten, twice shy.” If a dog bites me, I shal
37、l be twice as careful in future when I see it. This proverb is also used to apply to many things and not only to dogs. If you have been cheated at a shop, you will not go to the same shop again.2) “A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.” If I am a hunter, trying to catch birds, it is better to
38、 catch one than to see two birds in a bush but not able to catch them. Thus this means that what you have already got is better than the chance of being able to get something bigger in future.3) “Too many cooks spoil the broth (soup)”. When too many people do something, they get in each others way a
39、nd do a bad job.4) “To pour oil on troubled waters” is to try to calm things down. Oil is lighter than water. If a ship is in trouble at sea, another ship may come to help it. The second ship can send small boats to rescue people. However, it may first pour oil on the sea to make the sea less rough.
40、5) “Dont be a dog in a manger( 槽 )”means“ Dont be selfish.” In a stable ( 马房 ), the manger is the place where the horses food is put. Sometimes a dog will sleep in the manger and bark when a horse comes to get its food. The dog doesnt want to eat the hay in the manger but it will not let the horse e
41、at it.6) “He is sitting on the fence” means that somebody will not say whether he is in favor of a plan or against it. He is sitting on a fence between two opposing sides, perhaps waiting to see which side will win.7) “He who pays the piper calls the tune.” A piper is a musician. The man who employs
42、 or pays a musician can say what tunes the man will play. Thus this means that if a man provides the money for a plan, he can say how it will be carried out.8) “You cant get blood out of a stone” means that you cannot get something from a person who has not got any of the things you want. e. g. you
43、cannot get a million dollars from a poor man. 60. Peter has a bicycle which is much too small for him but he does not want to let his younger brother ride on it. His mother is angry and says to him: _. A. You cant get blood out of a stone B. Dont be a dog in a manger C. The early bird gets the worm
44、D. To pour oil on troubled waters61. Mr. and Mrs. Smith had a quarrel. Their friend, Mr. Brown, wanted to talk to them. When he came back, he told his wife that he had been trying to help the Smiths by _.A. pouring oil on troubled waters B. getting blood out of a stoneC. being a dog in a manger D. s
45、itting on the fence62. Mr. Wang paid for a new school. Some people didnt like the design of the school but they didnt argue with Mr. Wang because _. A. he was sitting on the fence B. once bitten, twice shyC. he who pays the piper calls the tune D. a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush63. Mrs.
46、Lin wanted to buy a new dress. Her husband suggested that she buy it from a shop near their home. Mrs. Lin disagreed because she had been cheated by that shop. So she said :“I wont go there again because _.”A. a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush B. I am sitting on the fenceC. once bitten, tw
47、ice shy D. too many cooks spoil the brothCVampires (吸血鬼), creatures of myth, have been around in one form or another for centuries. Terrifying but also attractive, they are as popular in the early 21st century as ever, as the current popularity of Twilight series, and its hero Edward Cullen, show. V
48、ampires first appeared in fiction in the 1700s; in 1895 Irish novelist Bram Stoker published Dracula, introducing the worlds most famous vampire.But just what is it about these drinkers of human blood that continues to fascinate us? Speaking to Eric Lewis of the Times and Transcript website, academi
49、c Deborah Wells said that vampires are “culturally adaptive(适应的)”. “We create very different vampires to fit different times. Edward Cullen is not the same as Count Dracula,” she said.Different as they are, Wells believes vampires are “the perfect containers into which we can pour our current cultur
50、al anxieties”, Bram Stokers Dracula is powerful, yet old and physically ugly. Stokers book dealt with fear of the fall of the British Empire, real fears in the day in which it was written.According to the website Bookrags, todays vampires have all our cultural desires, money, power and sexual attrac
51、tion. Represented by Cullen, they are noble, handsome young men whom women find irresistible(不可抵抗的). Whats more, vampires challenge traditional ideas about death, science and parental authority(权威). This may be why teenagers are drawn to vampire tales.“In many ways, the vampire story shows up teenag
52、e concerns,” said Wells. “The emotional intensity (强度) of the relationship with the vampire matches the intensity of how it feels to have your first real love affairs. Your first real love, it really feels like life and death.”64The best title for this passage should be_.AVampires may continue to dr

55、a package: What food might it contain? He was astonished to discover that it was a mouse trap!Retreating to the farmyard, the mouse declared the warning, “There is a mouse trap in the house, there is a mouse trap in the house.”The chicken clucked and scratched, raised her head and said, “Mr Mouse, I
56、 can tell you this is a grave concern to you, but it is of no consequence to me, I cannot be bothered by it.”The mouse turned to the pig and told him, “There is a mouse trap in the house.” “I am so sorry, Mr Mouse,” sympathized the pig, “but there is nothing I can do about it but pray; be assured th
57、at you are in my prayers.”The mouse turned to the cow, who replied, “A mouse trap, am I in grave danger, huh?”So the mouse returned to the house, headed down and depressed to face the farmers mouse trap alone.That very night a sound was heard throughout the house, like the sound of a mouse trap catc

The farmer rushed her to the hospital. She returned home with a fever. Now everyone knew to treat a fever with fre

But what is the proper amount of money to donate is under discussion amon
77、g the students, and the opinions are divided as follows.Some students think it necessary to donate as much money as possible because bigger donations symbolize your love for the victims. In addition, donating more means making greater contributions to the reconstruction of the quake-stricken area, a
78、nd more victims will be offered help. On the other hand, a bigger donation can make up for the regret that they cant go there to help as a volunteer. However, some other students hold a different opinion. They claim that a small donation doesnt necessarily mean lack of compassion. How much they give
79、 should be based on their families financial condition. Apart from this, they think since we students are depending on our parents, we had better not compare with each other on the amount of money to donate. As far as I am concerned, how much money a student donates doesnt make much difference. What really counts is whether he has done his part.
