本文是個幽默故事。講述一個人說另一個人每天早上重復做同一件事，這樣生活單調，其實自己也一樣。
1. D 表示回家是come home與前面的去上班go to work相對。
2. C 表示看書看報用read。
3. B 由文末I』m sitting in the same seat behind you可知。
4. C 從下文可知是向他召呼問好，所以是say 「Hello」 to him。
5. D 打了召呼後自然就會開始(began) 談起話來。
6. A 在同一時間、同一個車站、乘同一個火車，這是種單是調泛味的生活 (life)。而不是這工作，也不是辦公，更不是指小孩。
7. B 指每天早上都是如此，才會說單調泛味。
8. A 史密斯先生聽到(heard) 這些話。listen指有意識在「聽」，強調動作，後接賓語時要加to；hear指聽的結果「聽到」。
9. B say to sb對某人說。雖然後面是一個問句，但表示問某人時ask後不用to，而直接說ask sb。
10. C 因為對史密斯先生如此了解，當然是「總」總在他的後面了。

Once there was a boy in Toronto. His name was Jimmy. He started drawing when he was three years old, and when he was five he was already very ___1___ at it. He drew many beautiful interesting pictures, and many people ___2___ his pictures. They thought this boy was going to be ___3___ when he was a little older, and then they were going to ___4___ these pictures for a lot of money.
Jimmy』s pictures were quite different from other ___5___ because he never drew on all of the paper. He drew on ___6___ of it, and the other half was always ___7___.
「That』s very clever,」 everybody said. 「___8___ other people have ever done that before.」
One day somebody asked him, 「Please tell me, Jimmy. Why do you draw on the bottom (底部) half of your pictures, ___9___ not on the top half?」
「Because I』m small,」 Jimmy said, 「and my brushes (毛筆) can』t ___10___ very high.」
本文是具有一定的諷刺意義的故事。講述一個繪畫風格與眾不同的孩童，他在紙上總是留出一半不畫，別人都以為他特別聰明，最後通過孩童自己的口揭示了其中的密秘。
1. A. poor B. sad C. glad D. good
2. A. bought B. brought C. sold D. took
3. A. different B. clever C. famous D. rich
4. A. buy B. show C. leave D. sell
5. A. men』s B. people』s C. boy』s D. child』s

8. A. No B. Some C. Any D. Many
9. A. then B. and C. but D. or
10. A. change B. turn C. pull D. reach
1. D 由後文he drew many beautiful interesting pictures可知，他是「擅長(be good at)」繪畫。
2. A 這畫又漂亮又有趣，當然就很多人「買」了。
3. C 根據常識推理，現在就畫得如此之後，他長大後自然就會很「有名(famous)」。
4. D 由後面的for a lot of money可知，是將原來買的畫賣掉賺錢。
5. B 是說他的畫與別人的畫不同，而不是與別人男人的畫不同，所以排除A；又因other後應當接復數可數名詞，而C和D是單數，所以也錯了。
6. A 由後面的the other half可知。
7. B 由前文he never drew on all of the paper和He drew hall of it，可以推知另一半是「空白(empty)」。
8. A 上文已經說了他的畫與眾不同，他這樣畫一半留一半，由此，推斷沒有別的人像這樣做。
9. C 前後是轉折關系。
10. D因為自己還太矮小，所以伸手達不到那麼高。

Now, I am a middle school student in grade nine. It』s also the last year of middle school. Therefore, I must work harder this year because I want to get good scores in the senior school entrance exam. From this semester, I get up earlier than before because I want to do some more readings. After lunch, I also spend some time in study. I usually review the knowledge I learn in the morning. After dinner, I have class in school until 21:30. It』s for students to autonomous learning. Our teachers would come to the classroom, if we have any questions we could ask them. After school, I do not study at home. I think a good rest is important for me, so I go to bed early at night. Besides, e to the exam, I spend much less time in entertainment. I don』t think it』s bad for me, because a good senior school is my priority now. I must pay my most attention to it.
現在，我是一名初三年級的中學生。這也是初中的最後一個學期。因此，近年我必須努力學習，因為我想要在中考取得好成績。從這個學期起，我比以往起得更早了，因為我想多做一些閱讀。午飯過後，我也花一些時間在學習上。我經常復習早上學過的知識。我們老師也會到教室，我們有任何問題都可以問他們。放學回家我不學習。我覺得好的休息對我很重要，所以晚上我很早就睡覺了。此外，由於考試我很少花時間去玩。我認為這對我沒有害處，因為考取好的高中是我現在的首要任務。我必須把大部分的精力花在上面。

A Grain of Sand
一粒沙子
William Blake/威廉.布萊克
To see a world in a grain of sand,
And a heaven in a wild fllower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour.
從一粒沙子看到一個世界，
從一朵野花看到一個天堂，
把握在你手心裡的就是無限，
永恆也就消融於一個時辰。
Henry David Thoreau/享利.大衛.梭羅
However mean your life is, meet it and live it; do not shun it and call it hard names. It is not so bad as you are. It looks poorest when you are richest. The faultfinder will find faults in paradise. Love your life, poor as it is. You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious hours, even in a poorhouse. The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the alms-house as brightly as from the rich man's abode; the snow melts before its door as early in the spring. I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there, and have as cheering thoughts, as in a palace. The town's poor seem to me often to live the most independent lives of any. May be they are simply great enough to receive without misgiving. Most think that they are above being supported by the town; but it often happens that they are not above supporting themselves by dishonest means. Which should be more disreputable. Cultivate poverty like a garden herb, like sage. Do not trouble yourself much to get new things, whether clothes or friends, Turn the old, return to them. Things do not change; we change. Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.
不論你的生活如何卑賤，你要面對它生活，不要躲避它，更別用惡言咒罵它。它不像你那樣壞。你最富有的時候，倒是看似最窮。愛找缺點的人就是到天堂里也能找到缺點。你要愛你的生活，盡管它貧窮。甚至在一個濟貧院里，你也還有愉快、高興、光榮的時候。夕陽反射在濟貧院的窗上，像身在富戶人家窗上一樣光亮；在那門前，積雪同在早春融化。我只看到，一個從容的人，在哪裡也像在皇宮中一樣，生活得心滿意足而富有愉快的思想。城鎮中的窮人，我看，倒往往是過著最獨立不羈的生活。也許因為他們很大，所以受之無愧。大多數人以為他們是超然的，不靠城鎮來支援他們；可是事實上他們是往往利用了不正當的手段來對付生活，他們是毫不超脫的，毋寧是不體面的。視貧窮如園中之花而像聖人一樣耕植它吧！不要找新的花樣，無論是新的朋友或新的衣服，來麻煩你自己。找舊的，回到那裡去。萬物不變，是我們在變。你的衣服可以賣掉，但要保留你的思想。

The life I desired
我所追求的生活
威廉.薩姆塞特.毛姆/William Somerset Maugham
That must be the story of innumerable couples, and the pattern of life of life it offers has a homely grace. It reminds you of a placid rivulet, meandering smoothly through green pastures and shaded by pleasant trees, till at last it falls into the vastly sea; but the sea is so calm, so silent, so indifferent, that you are troubled suddenly by a vague uneasiness. Perhaps it is only by a kink in my nature, strong in me even in those days, that I felt in such an existence, the share of the great majority, something amiss. I recognized its social value. I saw its ordered happiness, but a fever in my blood asked for a wilder course. There seemed to me something alarming in such easy delights. In my heart was desire to live more dangerously. I was not unprepared for jagged rocks and treacherous, shoals it I could only have change-change and the excitement of unforeseen.
這一定是世間無數對夫妻的生活寫照，這種生活模式給人一種天倫之美。它使人想起一條平靜的溪流，蜿蜒暢游過綠茵的草場，濃蔭遮蔽，最後注入煙波浩渺的汪洋大海；但是大海太過平靜，太過沉默，太過不動聲色，你會突然感到莫名的不安。也許這只是我自己的一種怪誕想法，在那樣的時代，這想法對我影響很深：我覺得這像大多數人一樣的生活，似乎欠缺了一點兒什麼。我承認這種生活有社會價值，我也看到了它那井然有序的幸福，但我血液里的沖動卻渴望一種更桀驁不馴的旅程．這樣的安逸中好像有一種叫我驚懼不安的東西．我的心渴望一種更加驚險的生活。只要生活中還能有變遷———以及不可知的刺激，我願意踏上怪石嶙峋的山崖，奔赴暗礁滿布的海灘。
Virtue 美德
G.Herbert/赫伯特

The bridal of the earth and sky- 天地間完美的匹配-----
The dew shall weep thy fall to-night; 今宵的露珠兒將為你的消逝而落淚；
For thou must die. 因為你必須離去。
Sweet rose, whose hue angry and brave, 美麗的玫瑰，色澤紅潤艷麗，
Bids the rash gazer wipe his eye, 令匆匆而過的人拭目而視，
Thy root is ever in its grave, 你的根永遠扎在墳墓里，
And thou must die. 而你必須消逝。
Sweet spring, full of sweet days and roses, 美妙的春天，充滿了美好的日子和芳香的玫瑰，
A box where sweets compacted lie, 如一支芬芳滿溢的盒子，
My music shows ye have your closes, 我的音樂表明你們也有終止，
And all must die, 萬物都得消逝。
Only a sweet and virtuous soul, 唯有美好而正直的心靈，
Like season』s timber, never gives; 猶如乾燥備用的木料，永不走樣；
But though the whole world turn to coal, 縱然整個世界變為灰燼，
Then chiefly lives. 它依然流光溢彩。
The Rainy Day
雨天
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow 亨利.沃茲渥斯.朗費羅
The day is cold, and dark, and dreary;
It rains, and the wind is never weary;
The vine still clings to the moldering wall,
But at every gust the dead leaves fall,
And the day is dark and dreary.
My life is cold and dark and dreary;
It rains and the wind is never weary;
My though still cling to the moldering past,
But the hopes of youth fall thick in the blast,
And the days are dark and dreary.
Be still, sad heart! And cease repining;
Behind the clouds is the sun still shining;
Thy fate is the common fate of all,
Into each life some rain must fall,
Some days must be dark and dreary.
天冷、陰暗、沉悶；
下著雨，風也刮個不停；
藤還攀附著頹垣殘壁，
每來一陣狂風，枯葉附落紛紛，
天真是陰暗而沉悶。
我的生活寒冷、陰郁、沉悶；
下著雨，風也刮個不停；
我的思想還糾纏著消逝的往事，
大風里，我的青春希望相繼熄滅，
天真是陰暗而沉悶。
安靜吧，憂傷的心！別再悔恨；
烏雲後面太陽依然輝煌燦爛；
你命運和大家的一樣，
每個人一生都得逢上陰雨，
有些日子必然陰暗而沉悶。
