Wang Tao's Summer Holiday

    My summer holiday of this year was very enjoyable. I went to the countryside to spend my summer holidays with my grandparents. It is very beautiful there. There are green plants, clear rivers, lovely animals and kind people. I spent two weeks helping my grandfather do some farm work there. Besides, I helped the children in the neighborhoods with their lessons. I helped them read English to improve their spoken English. Their parents thanked me for this and thought highly of me. I realized that knowledge is greatly needed in the countryside.

    Now you've finished three years of English study. There's one way to demonstrate(展示)

    what you've learned－take a test!

    Do you have any special methods you use to help you do better on a test? How well you do is often a matter of how well prepared you are. Here are some ways to make sure you're at your best on test days.

    Go to bed early. The night before a test is not the time to stay up watching TV. You want to be rested and wide-awake for test day.

    Have a good breakfast. Test day isn't a morning for donuts(面包圈). Nor is it a time to starve(挨饿) yourself. Eat plenty of low-sugar, high-energy food to keep your brain and body working their best.

    Be prepared. Make sure you have two pencils and anything else you were asked to bring.

    Watch the numbers. Make sure that the number of the items(项目) on your answer sheet matches the number of the question.

    Look over all the answer choices. Don't assume(假定) that choice A is correct until you've checked the others. You may find a better one. And it is wrong to eliminate(排除) any choice that you can see at once. You'll have a better chance of finding the right answer.

    Check the clock. Make sure you allow yourself enough time to answer every question and go back and check your answers. Don't spend too much time on any difficult question. Skip（跳

    读） it and come back to it later.

    Keep up with your schoolwork all year long. That's  how you get the skills you need for taking a test.

    Hello, I am Alice. (A)这是一个杯子。It (B)________blue.That is a key.It's blue, too (也).(C)pen，a，this, black,is. And that's a green quilt.It's good.

根据短文内容，完成下列任务。

1小题将(A)处翻译成英语。2小题在(B)处填入合适的单词。3小题将(C)处画线部分的单词连成一句话。4小题和5小题回答下列问题。

    Mom and Dad are two of the most important persons in your life. Over your lifetime, they may influence you more than anyone else you will meet. So if your mom loves to read, you just might grow up carrying a book wherever you go, just as she does. But parents do a lot more than just pass on their hobbies. Moms and Dads need to care for their kids the minute their kids are born. Most parents will do this as long as they live.

    Here are some ways you can stay close, get along well, and build a strong relationship with your parents.

    Spend time together. Instead of playing computer games or watching TV, ask your mom and dad to play with you. Go outside together, or do some reading.

    Be kind. Little things might mean a lot to your mom or dad. You can brighten a parent's day with a hug, a card, or a joke. It's also lovely when a kid cleans up his or her room without being asked. And if you try not to fight with your brothers or sisters, your parents will be so happy!

    Do your best at whatever you do. You don't have to be perfect, but when you do your best, you make your parents proud. It makes them happy to see how you're turning into a good kid. Why？Because it lets them know they're doing a good job.

    When did you last say "I love you" to your father? If you can't remember, then you can get the chance this Father's Day on June 19. Generally compared with (与……相比) a mother's gentle love, a father's love represents qualities such as independence, confidence, courage and adventure (冒险).

    Also, caring fathers help their children get along with others. Fathers can lead their children into their social circle (社交圈). They can also teach them how to behave and control their feelings.

    For example, Microsoft founder Bill Gates was quiet and didn't like to talk with others when he was a little kid. So his father often held family parties and let Bill play games with family members. ⑶ "My ability of leading and cooperating (合作) became better through games." Gates once said in an interview with US Fortune magazine.

    US actor Will Smith said that his father taught him important lessons through small things. His father once planned to tear (拆) down a wall of their shop and rebuild it. But little Will thought it was impossible. After a year and a half, they did it. "You didn't try to build a wall. You are going to lay a brick every day. And soon you have a wall," he said on a TV show.

⑷"One father is more than a hundred school-masters", British poet George Herbert once said. Do you agree?
