Dear Addie,
Greetings from New Jersey, how is New Zealand? I’m very excited to have you as my pen
pal. I guess it’s my turn to tell you about myself.
First off, I live with my parents, two sisters, and our pet dog Brighty. Our town is called
Whippangong. It is only about a half-hour away from New York City. My oldest sister, Ingrid,
just turned 17, that means she now has a drive’s license. She drives us to the mall. Do you have a
mall near you in Te Awamutu? My other sister is 11 and her name is Lucy. I guess I would say
that she is my best friend. We still fight, though. She rides horses and takes lessons every Saturday
morning. I have to go with her sometimes, and that is truly the most boring thing in the world. Do
you like horses?
I take tap dancing classes. I like to practice in the food store. The sound of my feet stepping
on the hard floors echoes(发出回声). I play scores in the fall; I’m on the swim team during the
summer. I like swim, but I am really looking forward to diving this year. Next year I will start
music lessons in school. I think I am going to play the piano.
Our house has eight rooms and a small backyard where every year we try to grow vegetables.
We mostly get zucchini because the rabbits eat everything else. I guess rabbits don’t like zucchini.
I have a bike and mum allows me to ride up and down our street, but nowhere else. I hope that I
will get to ride it to school someday. Right now I ride the crowed and yucky bus.
Well, that is enough about me for now. I look forward to hearing from you again soon. I hope
your surfing lessons went well. And I hope your mum dose let you learn to play the drums.
Write soon
Love,
Jessica

grow deep roots in ____of water under the earth by themselves. Deep roots were very important.
So he never watered his trees.
Dr. Gibbs died several years after I left home. When I came back home, I walked by his house
and looked at the trees that I watched him plant about 25 years ago. They were very big and
strong. I planted some trees a few years later and carried water to them for a whole summer. After
two years of caring too much, whenever a cold wind blow in, they ____a lot.
Every night before I go to bed, I check on my two sons. Mostly I hope that their lives will be
____. But now it’s time to change my thought . I know my children are going to face difficulties.There’s always a cold wind blowing somewhere, so what we need to do is get roots that reach

I didn’t think I had a passion(激情). I would sit in front of the TV all day, thinking about
nothing but the next show.
It was not long ago that I first learned how important having a passion is to life.
On that day I went with my mum to drive my sister to the gym. I was bored. Then, as my
mum stopped at a red light, s on the side of the road caught my eye. It was a man dressed in
rags (衣衫褴褛). He was homeless. That didn’t interest me, for I had seen many like him b .
But in some ways he was d . This man was not sitting down with a sad expression. He had
a radio in his hand and was dancing h to the music. The radio seemed to be the most
precious(珍贵)thing he had.
“ Mum, why does that man have a radio even thought he’s homeless?” I asked.
“He bought it,” she replied.
“But if he’s homeless, why doesn’t he use the money to buy food or clothes? He w it on
something he doesn’t need.”
“Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren’t the most important things. We need happiness,
too.”
That man must c enough music to buy a radio instead of food or clothes. I soon realized
that happiness is the k to life.
Without it, there’s nothing to look forward to. A passion gives a person the happiness they
need to keep going.D．Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）（12分）
Alice Munro has won the 2013 Nobel Prize in Literature. The short story writer is the first-
ever Canadian, and the 13th woman, to win the prize. She has been called “the master of the
modern short story”.
Alice Munro was born on July 10, 1931, just outside Wingham, Ontario, which has appeared
in her stories many times.
Munro said that she began to escape into books when she was only ten years old. After her
mother was diagnosed(诊断)with a serious disease, she started to throw herself into the world of
books to make herself feel better.
Munro was a late bloomer(大器晚成) as a writer. She produced her first collection when she
was 37 and didn’t get known outside Canada until the 1970s.
In fact, Munro works with an easy-to-read writing style, which is often described to be
“practically perfect”. Her story, The Bear Came Over the Mountain, was made into a movie called
Away From Her.
The 83-year-old author is often compared to Chekhov, the 19th century Russian who is
considered one of the greatest short story writers in history.
Munro lived for many years in the small town of Clinton, Opt, but she was so shy that many
people in the town didn’t know who she was. Munro said she was trying to be more social and
accept invitations and go out to see people.

His friend, Joe, is the head of a middle school. Joe asks Sam to help him, because

basketball team hard. And finally the team meets its 11th game.
The team members try their best. But in the first half, the team is behind by 30
points. During the break, everyone seems low and sad.
Sam asks, "Are you going to give up?"
No one answers. But their body languages show they want to give up.
Then Sam asks, "If Michael Jordan joined you, would he give up?"
"Of course not," answers one player.
Sam goes on asking, "If Kobe Bryant and LeBron James were there, would theygive up?" "No. They would fight to the end."
"If Miller became one of your members, would he give up?"

Welcome to our program. In today's show, we'll be talking about hobbies. A lot of
people choose expensive hobbies like photography and golf. But, some hobbies don't cost
a lot of money - they can be useful and even kind of cool. A great example of a cheap
but cool hobby is plane spotting. How this works is people go to airports and watch the
planes take off and land. They like to guess the model of the plane and the year it was
built. Almost everyone has a hobby. However, some hobbies are, well, let's say, more
useful than others.
Take bird-watching: Maybe you don't think this is a very useful hobby, but it is.
Bird-watching started as a way for people to enjoy nature, but over time it became more
useful. Bird-watchers became very interested in protecting nature. They formed groups to
find ways to protect wild life and the environment.
Then there are those who are interested in computers. Before computers became
popular, many people thought that computers were very difficult to use. Now, almost
everyone uses a computer. But some people are more skillful at it than others and have
taken up computer work as a hobby. In fact, some search engines and a lot of websites
started as a hobby.
