You can see dogs here and there. Almost each of the families had a dog. I made friends with many Russian children w_ I was living and studying there. They were all very nice. They had fair hair and fair skin. I played with them h_ though I could only speak a little Russian at first. They were f_ to me. The weather in Moscow was very cold. It snowed almost every in winter. The ground was always c_ with a lot of snow. We often made s_ together. Now I am b_ in China, but I miss them so much. I will never forget my happy memories of this visit to Moscow.三 These years, with the development of society, more and more teenagers have suffered from stress.

Their great rooms were high w_ only one hole in the roof （屋顶） to let the smoke o_ from cooking fire. Later, people began to make the holes b_ to have more light and air in their homes. The first English window was j_ a small opening（口，孔）in the wall. It was cut long to let in as m _light as possible, and narrow to keep out the bad w_ . But, more wind than light would c_ in if the window was cut long. This is why it was c_ “The winds eye”. And the word “w_” comes form two ancient（古代的）words for “wind” and “eye”.五Thirty years ago, I walked into your bakery and asked for some loaves(条) of bread to sell. At that time, I was 12 years old. A young lady s _ me that day. She gave me five loaves and wished me good l_ .I took the loaves and went out to sell them. It t_ me all day, but I sold them all. At the e_ of the day, I had some money. I was the h_ boy in the world as I walked home that evening.The next day, I went to a bicycle shop. I paid a deposit(定金) on a new bicycle.

Id like to show my thanks to her.六Long ago, people used bells more t_ they do today. The postmen used to ring a hand bell when they delivered letters. Fire engines had bell i_ of sirens(号笛). People who sold things came past houses, ringing a bell and shouting w_ was for sale. Every village had its church bell to let people know it was t_ to go to church. At night, this bell was ringing so that travelers would find the village in the d _. In most countries bells were hung r _ the necks of animals. The bells helped owners to find lost cows or sheep. Today, in India, animals still wear bells. Now bells are used l_ and less, Buzzers, sirens and horns have t 8_ their place. Now people try to keep the old bells in school and churches so t_ they will not l _ their beautiful sounds for ever.七Life gets noisier every day and very f_ people can be free from noise of some kind or another. W_ you live in the centre of a modern city or a village far away - the chances that you will be disturbed by planes, cars, radios, etc. are almost everywhere. We seem to be used to noise, too. Some people feel quite lonely w_ background music while they are working.Tests have s_ that total silence can be very frightening experiences. H_, some people enjoy listening to pop music which is very loud, and this can do harm to their ears. The noise level in some places is far a_ the usual safety level for heavy industrial areas.One recent report about noise said that a_ a lot of people say that any noise disturbs their attention, only a sudden c_ in the level of noise really affects peoples attention. It goes on to say that a background noise, which doesnt change too much (music, for example) may even help people to pay attention.People are testing ways to make less noise. There are even laws c_ noise. We cant r_ to the “ good old days ” of peace and quiet. But we can make less noise - if we shout loudly enough about it八There are t_ many accidents in cities.

Remember that cars take l_ time to stop when the roads are wet. When it is raining, we must be more and more careful, not l _ careful.九Most American families are smaller than the families in other c 1 _. Children in the US will l 2 their parents homes. When they grow up, they usually live f 3 from their parents because they want to f 4_ _ good jobs. They often w 5 _ _ to their parents or telephone them. And they often go to v 6 their parents on holiday. Parents usually let their children choose their o 7 _ jobs. Americans think it i8 for young people to decide on their lives by themselves. Children are asked to do some work around their houses. And in many families, Children are p 9_ _ for doing some housework so that they can learn h_ 10 to make money for their own use.十Someone says: “Time is money,” but I think time is e 1 _ more important than money. Why? Because when money is spent, we can get it back. However, when time is g 2 _, it will never r 3 _ . Thats why we mustnt waste time. It goes without saying that the t 4 _ is usually limited（有限的）. Even a second is very important. We should make full use of our time to do s 5 useful. But it is a pity that there are a lot of people who do not know the i 6 of time. They spent their limited time smoking, drinking and p 7 _. They do not know that wasting time means wasting part of their own l 8_ _. In a word, we should save time. We shouldnt l 9_ _ todays work for tomorrow. Remember we have n 10 time to lose.十一Andy was born in China 15 years agoIn 2005, she m_ 1 to the USA with her familyAs a high school student，she has found many differences b_ 2 Chinese and Americans：About money1) Americans like to spend m_ 3 than they have，so many of them are always in debt(欠债)But Chinese usually spend less than they have, so many 0f them always have m_ 4 left in the bank2) The American kids themselves make their own moneyMost Chinese kids always a_ 5 their parents for money3) Many American parents think there is n_ 6 need to send their children t0 an expensive universityIts different in ChinaMany Chinese parents would do anything to send their children to expensive universities t_ 7 their family isnt rich enoughAbout school1) Many American girls take part in sports，dancing and singing groups while many Chinese girls take part in study groups2) Many American students think that B is good while many Chinese students think that B is too b_ 8 .About friendsMost American parents let their sons or daughters make friends by t_ 9 . They never ask them about their friends while Chinese parents usually enjoy knowing more about their childrens friends i_ 10 many different ways，and usually stop them from staying out too late with friends十二Do you have bright ideas? Ideas for inventions that c_ 1 the world or, at least, make life easier for somebody. P_ 2 we all do sometimes, but we dont often make the idea a real thing. Recently, there was a competition in a country, which e_ 3 young people to make their bright ideas come true. There were t_ 4_ groups in the contest: Group A was for school children under 16; Group B was for those o_ 5_ 16. And there were eleven prize-winners altogether.Neil Hunt, one of the prize-winners, was c _6_ “Sunshine Superman” by one newspaper writing about his design. When people study the weather, its important to be able to record the sunshine accurately(准确地，精确地). We need to know how many h _7_ of sunshine we have and how strong it is. Most sunshine recorders o_ _8 record direct (直接的) sunshine. Neils is more accurate and this is very i _9 for research into ways of using solar power（太阳能）. Neil plans to keep inventing.The ideas in the competition were so g_ 10 that we are surprised that the industry (工业界) doesnt ask more school children for suggestions.十三British teenagers can leave school at sixteen after taking their GCSE exams.

They a_ 4 love their mobile phones, and spend hours texting (发短信) their friends and chatting. Today, phones are getting smaller and lighter and you can do a lot more w_ 5 them than just talk. Text messaging has b_ 6 the coolest and most popular way to communicate. More than 90% of 12- to 16-year-olds have a mobile, and experts say that this stops t _7 from spending their money on sweets and cigarettes.Fashion (服饰)At school, almost all British teenagers have to w_ 8 a school uniform. However, in their freet _9 they can wear whatever they like, and what they like is designer names such as Nike, Diesel and Paul Smith.

Every evening we get into h_ 1 battles (争执). Three afternoons a week, she has a_ 2 (net-ball, singing) after school and by the time we get home, homework is theL_ 3 thing she feels like doing. The other two days, she gets home early and we argue (争论) about w_ 4 she should do her homework r _5 after school, or if she should have some time to rest and play f_ 6 When Maria at last sits down to do her homework, she seems to want me there helping all the time. I do want to help her, but Im s_ 7 that she is going to need to be able to do it on her o_ 8 And in f _9 , most of the time, I have other things I need to be doing. It seems that children these days have much more homework than we did, and some of it is really beyond (超越) their a _10 .As you can see, Im really worried about homework and I really dont know what I should do. Any ideas?十五When you finish high school or university, is learning done? The answer is “no”. In many countries, people continue learning all their lives. Why is lifelong (终身的)learning important?
