A friend once told me an experience that he had. When he was driving along a onelane(单行小路), unpaved(未铺路的)mountain road, the car ahead of his produced clouds of choking dust(呛人的尘土), and it was a long way to the nearest paved main road. Suddenly, the car ahead stopped at a wider place on the road. My friend thought there must be something wrong with the car ahead. He stopped and asked if anything was wrong. No, said the other driver. But youve endured my dust so far. Ill endure yours the rest of the way.Another ingredient is empathy(同情心). It makes a person see into the mind or heart of someone else. Recently I happened to read such a story in a book. A man was having dinner alone, and he was trying to open a bottle. But he failed. Then he asked a waiter for help. The waiter took the bottle, turned his back and opened it without difficulty. Then the waiter closed it again and turned back. He pretended(假装)to make a great effort to open the bottle without success. Finally he took it into the kitchen and returned very soon. He told the man that he managed to open it, but only with a tool. Yet another ingredient is the ability to treat people alike(一视同仁). No matter who he is and what he does, everyone is worth respecting. （1）The driver in the car ahead stopped to_.

It may be hard to picture it now, but a man named Sequoyah lived in such a world. Sequoyah was a member of a native American tribe(部落), the Cherokee. Cherokee people speak their own language, but for hundreds of years they did not have a system of writing. Without a writing system, the Cherokee had no newspapers or books before 1809.Sequoyah was probably born around the year 1770 and lived with his mother in a small village in the mountains of Tennessee. When he grew up, he became a blacksmith(铁匠). When he was doing business with those “English-speaking people”, he noticed that they used paper with marks to record their thoughts and ideas. Sequoyah called these pieces of paper with marks “talking leaves”. He began to wonder why people who spoke Cherokee did not have a way to write down their words.In 1809, Sequoyah decided to give the Cherokee their own “talking leaves”. At first he tried to make a different symbol for every word in the Cherokee language. But in that case, there would be so many symbols and too hard for people to remember, so he decided to make a picture for each syllable (音节). After much hard work, Sequoyah invented 85 symbols. In order to see whether it would work, he helped his six-year-old daughter Ayoka learn each symbol and found she could learn to read and write very quickly. Sequoyahs invention was a success!Before long, Sequoyahs writing system had spread far and wide. Cherokee people living in all different parts of the country learned to read and write. In 1825, Sequoyahs system was made the official written language for Cherokee people. To this day, Cherokee speakers still use Sequoyahs writing system. In some parts of the United States, you can see street signs and billboards written in both English and Cherokee. Sequoyah will always be remembered for his important contribution（贡献）to Cherokee people.根据短文内容，回答下列问题。（1）How long did Cherokee people not have a system of writing?_（2）What did Sequoyah call the pieces of paper with marks?_（3）How many symbols did Sequoyah invent in the Cherokee language?_（4）When was Sequoyahs system made the official written language?_（5）Why will Sequoyah always be remembered?_四、 单词拼写 (共1题；共5分)8. （5分）根据下列句子及所给的首字母,写出各单词的正确、完全形式（每空限填一词）。（1）There are a large number of v_ to enjoy the scenery of the West Lake every year.（2）My sister was m_ at me when she knew I saw her diary.（3）Oh, sir, our meal is s_ between 5:00 and 7:00 pm here.（4）Moms advice was really helpful for me to make a right d_ .（5）Alice didnt wear school uniform yesterday.
