High Housing Cost Makes Sub-Divided Flats
HONG KONG—Average home price have increased
by73% since the end of 2008.This huge jump in home price
has pushed more and more low income families into sub-
divided flats.What is a sub-divided flat? It is a flat that is divided into parts, so that it can house more than
one family. Many sub-divided flats do not meet fire-safety standards (标准）.For example, some
flat owners have turned fire escape exits into part of their own rooms.
In June 2011, a fire happened in an old eight-storey building and left four people dead. That
building was filled with sub-divided flats, some as small as 100 square feet. Many people believed
that sub-divided flats were one of the causes for the accident. Since then, the government has paid
more attention to the housing problem.
The best way to lower housing prices is to increase the number of flats; however, the best
way may not be the easiest way. To lower housing prices, the government said that 20,000 new
flats must be added every year for the next ten years.
Even if government could provide land for 20,000 flats a year, we would not know how
much that would affect the housing market. One thing is for certain, Hong Kong’s housing
problem will not soon go away and will be with us for a very long time.
69. The purpose of this article is to talk about__________.
A) the fire in June 2011 B) the housing problem in Hong Kong
C) the sub-divided flats D) the fire-safety laws
70. _________ family / families would live in one sub-divided flat.
A) 0 B) 1 C) 4 D) 100
71. The flat owner divided their flats into parts because they wanted to ________.
A) bread the law B) help the government
C) help the low income families D) make more money
72. _________is one of the causes that drives people to live in sub-divided flats.
A) The flat owner’s invitation B) The fire-safety law
C) The high cost of buying a home D) The effect of sub-divided flats

A) to reduce the number of flats B)to build more flats
C) to set fire to buildings D) to give money to the poor

A Student Budget(预算)
College is an exciting time to learn and to make friends that will last
a lifetime. Many students do not like to worry about money, and they

Anne’s best friend
Do you want a friend whom you could tell everything to, like your deepest
feeling and thoughts? Or are you afraid of your friend would laugh at you, or
would not understand what you are going through. Anne Frank wanted the first
kind. She made her diary her best friend.
Anne lived in Amsterdam in the Netherlands during World War Ⅱ .Her
family wad Jewish so they had to hide or they would be caught by German Nazis(纳粹). They hid
away for twenty-five months before they were discovered. During that time the only true friends
was her diary. She said, “I don’t want to set down a series of facts as most people do. But I want
this diary itself to be my best friend, and I shall call my friend Kitty. Now read how she felt after
being in the hiding place since July 1942.
Thursday 15th June 1944
Dear Kitty,
I wonder if it’s because I haven’t been able to be outdoors for so long that I’ve grown so crazy
about everything to do with nature. I can well remember that there was a time when a deep blue
sky, the songs of the bird, moonlight and flower could never have kept me spellbound. That’s
changed since I came here.
…for example, one evening when it was so warm, I stayed awake on purpose until half past
eleven in order to have a good look at the moon by myself. But as the moon gave far too much
light, I didn’t dare open the window. Another time five month ago, I happened to be upstairs when
at dusk when the window was open. I didn’t go downstairs until the window had to be shut. The
dark, rainy evening, the wind, the thundering clouds held me entirely in their power; it was the
first time in a year and a half that I‘d seen the night face to face….
…Sadly…I am only able to look at nature through dirty curtain before very dusty window. It’s
no pleasure looking at nature through these any longer, because nature is one thing really must be
experienced.
Yours,
Anne

范文：A White Lie
There’s no doubt that we should be honest to others in modern society. However, as we all
know, everyone tells a lie in our daily life from time to time. But should we tell a lie or not while
communicating with others? From my point of view, it’s quite necessary for us to lie to others if
we want to get on well with others.
But when, why and where? It’s really a meaningful question. For example, when some of
relatives get a cancer, he or she is sure to pass away soon. At this moment, should we be the so-
called ‘honest’, and tell him the truth that he is going to die. I do believe most of us would choose
to hide the fact.
Therefore, sometimes we have no choice but to tell a white lie, which can make the situation
more positive. As a result, I’m for the point of telling a white lie when it is helpful or necessary.
