Just look at how much young writers like Han Han and Guo Jingming are lowed, we may know writing has become a fashion among today's teenagers.
Gao Can, a 13-year-old girl, is the 【1】 member of the Association of writers of Shan-xi. She writers fairy tales, short 【2】,and most of ail, poems(诗歌). Gao said she began poem writing when she was in primary school. Once the teacher asked the class 【3】 a composition called”If I were...” Gao had an idea,”why not make it a poem?”That was her 【4】 poem, and it won a lot of compliments from both her teacher and her classmates. So far,hundreds of her poems have come out.
“Writing poems is not difficult at all just express 【5】is OK ---what you do, what you see or what you think”said Gao. “I don't have enough life experience, so I write about 【6】,about the plants and animals”
However, teenagers these days 【7】 write poems or read them because exams want any kind of articles except poems.
But like Gao,there are still students who like poems. Hu Jingzhi is one of them.The 14-year-old boy said he was 【8】 in poem writing. But it was annoying that he could not find many poem collections in nearby bookshops.
Gao agreed with Hu, She said today's bookshops 【9】 with books on “how to give a successful speech”,”how to know what others think”or”how to make money【10】”, “poems won't teach you how to make money, but the beautiful words clear your mind and activate your imagination”said Gao. At least, read poems-for the nice things in life.

21、 New York is one of the last large American cities to have some of its policemen on horseback. The New York police have 170 horses working on certain parts of the city. The horses are expensive to feed(喂养), but it is even more expensive to look after them. Because the horses must walk on the streets, they need special horse shoes. In fact, they need more than 8,000 of them each day. Every police horse in New York gets new shoes every month. Keeping these shoes in good repair is the job of six blacksmiths(铁匠).There are only about thirty-five blacksmiths in the whole United States.
The cost of shoeing a horse is between twenty dollars and thirty-five dollars and it takes a good blacksmith two or three hours to do the job.
A blacksmith’s job is not an easy one. He must be able to shape a shoe from a piece of metal and then fit(安装) it to the horse foot. The blacksmith must bend over(弯腰) all the time when he is fitting the shoe and must hold the weight(重量) of the horse’s leg while he works. Clearly, a blacksmith must be very strong. But even more important, he must be able to deal with horses-for before the blacksmith can begin his work, he has to get the horse to lift his leg.
One of the blacksmiths in New York is James Corbin. He came to the country from Ireland in 1948.He not only makes horseshoes for the police but also works for a group of horse owners near the city. Corbin became interested in the job of blacksmiths because his father did it, and, as he puts it, “It’s a good way to make a living.”

A.clever B.rich C.strong D.lucky
【2】James Corbin became a blacksmith because he .
A.was interested in horses B.was needed by the policemen
C.drew a picture of the horse shoes D.had to make a living
【3】In the passage “to shape a shoe” is to .
A.fit it on the horse’s foot B.use it for two or three hours
C.make the form of a horseshoe from a piece of metal D.draw a picture of the shoe
【4】Which of the following is true?
A.Only a few large American cities have some policemen on horseback.
B.New York is the only city in America to have some policemen on horseback.
C.Policemen on horseback enjoy travelling around the United States.
D.Policemen on horseback are less expensive than those in cars.

22、What do mothers think of housework? Let’s read the following ideas.
Laura | We don’t like housework, but at the same time, we hope to have a clean and comfortable home. I learn from my neighbor Teresa. She says, “You don’t have to do everything right away, but ‘do small things with great love.’ Start with the easy ones, rest, and then go on with others. It becomes less tiring but much more interesting when you divide(分成)things to smaller parts.” |
Mona | Do you know what you should call those who use towels(毛巾)but never wash them, eat meals but never do the dishes, sit in rooms but never clean? If your answer is, “a house guest(房客)”, you’re wrong, because I just described my kids. |

23、“It’s a waste of time,” I said when my mom told me that I had to volunteer at Madcaps, a homeless shelter(收容所), I thought that things could not get worse.
We got there late and walked to the dirty homeless shelter, where we saw a lady shouting at the security guard(保安员). He dealt with her and then led us to the kitchen.
Then homeless people started to walk in and a little girl, around 5 years old, walked up and pointed to the food I was handing out. I handed her a cold sandwich and she nodded to say thanks. She then walked over to her parents, who were seated at a large table.
As she walked away, I thought about how much I had. I go to one of the top schools in San Diego; I have a great house by the water, and I have a warm meal every night. Then I thought of how little she had. She probably didn’t go to school, and this is where she sleeps and eats every day. That little girl made me realize how lucky I am.
After that moment, I had a change of heart. Now, I love Madcaps and don’t miss one meeting. I have made many friends and I often hang out with them. I believe that if you have an open mind about things, you can learn a lot about yourself and the people in your community. You can make new friends and realize just how lucky you are. I believe you can make a difference just by giving others a hand.
