A young boy recently received an unexpected message in the mail from his father Joseph, who died two years ago.
Rowan’s dad was a hard-working man who wanted to give his son the best life he could. It was why Rowan’s mother, Julie Van Stone, said Joseph joined the Navy and went to MIT to get two Master’s degrees.
While at school in Boston, he would often write to Rowan. Even when he left school and was driving back to Colorado, he would send postcards from each state he stopped in. Those postcards were sent in 2007. “I remember him saying he had sent 5 or 6, but Rowan had only got 3 or 4 in the mail. But I never thought anything of it,” Van Stone said.
Those postcards and pictures are priceless memories for Van Stone and her son, especially after Joseph passed away from a rare brain disease. Rowan never had a chance to say goodbye. But, on Saturday, just days before the two-year anniversary of Joseph’s death, a postcard arrived in the mail. It arrived on March 11, 2015. The message read：“Hello from Pennsylvania. I love you, and I miss you so much. See you soon. Love, Daddy.”
Neither he nor his mother knows how it happened, and they may never know. But, they have their own ideas why. “I feel like that was the final goodbye that he didn’t get to say,” Van Stone said. Van Stone says Joseph’s last words to her before he died were：“Everything is a circle. We will see each other again. All that matters is love.”
4．What did Rowan’s dad do to make his son live well？
A．He got many Master’s Degrees. B．He became a soldier in Navy.
C．He kept writing to his son. D．He said goodbye to his son.
5．When Rowan only received 3 or 4 of postcards, Van Stone ________.
A．paid little attention to that B．let Joseph stop sending postcards
C．drove back to Colorado D．wrote to Rowan every year
6．How long did it take for the last postcard to reach Rowan？
A．2 years. B．5 years. C．6 years. D．8 years.
7．Where did Rowan’s dad send the last postcard？
A．In Boston. B．In Colorado. C．In Pennsylvania. D．In New York.

You may not know a lot of people when you start high school. Even if you know some freshmen, you still feel nervous that you don’t know any upper-class men and teachers. How are you going to make friends among this sea of unknown faces？
Most high schools hold a freshman orientation before school actually starts, which is helpful not only because you learn your way around the building and get to meet some of your teachers, but also because you get to meet fellow freshmen. That way, when you show up on your first day of school, you may already recognize a few familiar faces.
When you talk to your new classmates, you’ll probably find that a lot of them are feeling just like you are. They’re all new to the school and don’t know what to expect. Talking about a common concern with them can help you develop friendships.
The work in high school is something freshmen are probably worried about. The work in high school builds on what you learned in middle school, giving you a more advanced knowledge of many subjects. So you may find you have more work to do or that it’s a bit more challenging. If you ever find your work too difficult, teachers can give you extra help.
High school also has more extracurricular activities than middle school did such as clubs, music and theater groups and sports teams. This is a good time to explore your interests and try new things.
High school gives you the chance to learn how to manage your time, to develop your social skills and interests, and more importantly to be more independent and responsible.
8．What does the underlined word “orientation” mean in Paragraph 2？
A．Training. B．Game. C．Discussion. D．Examination.
9．What are freshmen probably worried about？
A．The learning task. B．The ability to make friends.
C．The relationship with teachers. D．The freshman orientation.
10．Extracurricular activities mainly help students ________.
A．build up healthy bodies B．develop friendships
C．develop their interests D．improve their learning ability
11．This passage is written for ________.
A．freshmen at high school B．freshmen’s parents
C．middle school students D．upper-classmen in high school
D
Americans think that everything we British people say sounds smart. We think that they
sound low-class, but secretly we think they sound cool. These are just old beliefs about British and American English, but there is some truth in them.
What is certainly true is that the differences between British and American English continue to interest us.
When the US was only about 20 years old, people were already saying that British accents sounded more intelligent，according to Erin Moore’s book That’s Not English：Britishisms, Americanisms, and What Our English Says About Us.
However, there are many different accents in Britain-Moore says the UK may have just as many regional accents as the US, even though the population is almost one-fifth the size. In the UK, accents have a lot to do with class, but to many Americans, even an accent that British people think is “low class” is thought of as intelligent and better, according to MPR News.
American slang(俚语) has been part of British people’s vocabulary for a long time-the number of American television, movies and music enjoyed in the UK means that British people have been using words like “cool” and “awesome” for years now. But sometimes words from the UK make it to the US-like “gobsmacked”.
“Gobsmacked” started as slang from northern England. “Gob” means mouth, so the word means “surprised as if someone smacked you in the mouth”. Reality television brought it to the US, Moore said. When the singer Susan Boyle became famous for her unlikely great singing voice on the show Britain’s Got Talent, she used it all the time. “I’m gobsmacked,” she repeated, and it got popular.
“Americans love a colorful piece of slang as much as anyone else,” said Moore. And this is just one example of how Britons and Americans can leave each other “gobsmacked” with their different types of English!
12．What do American people think of British English？
A．Cool. B．Low-class. C．Intelligent. D．Interesting.
13．What can we know from the passage？
A．There are more accents in Britain than in the US.
B．The UK is a large country with a small population.
C．American slang is the most important part of British people’s vocabulary.
D．In the UK, people of different classes speak differently.
14．The word “gobsmacked” became widely used because of ________.
A．MPR News and the US
B．Erin Moore and northern England
C．Susan Boyle and Britain’s Got Talent
D．Reality television and American slang
15．What is the best title for the passage？
A．American slang and British slang
B．British people and American people
C．British accents and American accents
D．Differences between British and American English

Earthquake can strike without warning. But many injuries and deaths from this kind of natural disaster can be prevented if people follow these safety tips.
If you’re inside a building, stay there! One of the most dangerous things to do in an earthquake is to try to leave a building. 16 Drop to the ground. Get under an object that is not easily damaged. Hold on to it until the shaking stops. You can also get to a comer formed by two walls with your arms over your hand. If you’re in bed when the quake hits, stay there and protect your head with a pillow.
17 Don’t take shelter under a tree, streetlights, electric poles or tall buildings. If you are driving, stop as quickly as possible and stay away from overpasses, buildings, bridges or anything else that might fall or collapse beneath you. 18
If you are trapped in ruins, cover your mouth with a handkerchief or a piece of clothing. Use your cell phone to call for help if possible. Don’t shout. 19 Tap on a pipe or the wall so rescuers can find you.
Be prepared for aftershocks. 20 However, sometimes they even happen months later. Therefore, if you are not in a safe position after the first shock, you should move quickly but carefully to a safer place.
A．Don’t move about or kick up dust.
B．If you’re outside, go to an open space.
C．Shouting can cause you to breathe in dust.
D．Don’t park your car under a tree or any tall object.
E．Take a good hold of your cell phone in the building.
F．They can happen in the first hours after the earthquake.
