A writing club is a group consisting of writers who meet together to share and comment on manuscripts (手稿). People who write stories, poetry, or even non-fiction articles can join a writing club. But the usual site is in a library, bookstore, private home, or a school.

Joining a club allows writers to understand the challenges of being a writer. And members of a writing club can receive constructive criticism (评论) from their fellow writers so that they can learn how to make their articles stronger. Moreover, commenting on other writers' manuscripts allows them to see what makes a writing piece interesting or boring.

If a writer wants to become a member of a writing club, he can find one by contacting the public library or a local university. Many writing groups will advertise for new members in local newspapers as well.

But sometimes, no matter how a writer has tried, he may still experience extreme difficulties finding a writing group to join or finding a writing group suitable for him.  He only needs to advertise for desired members by posting online, placing an ad in local newspapers, etc.

For many writers, the journey of writing is demanding. For example, writing can be troubled by lack of inspiration. So joining a group of writers can be the ideal way a writer can improve his writing skills and assist others with their manuscripts.

A. And writing can be a lonely task.

B. There are many benefits of joining a writing club.

C. Members of a writing club should know each other.

D. If that happens, the writer can start his own club.

E. Joining a writing club has advantages and disadvantages.

F. It's also possible to find writing clubs on the Internet.

G. A writing club can have meetings just anywhere.

    Tipping is part of everyday life in many parts of the world. It's usually an informal charge that's paid on top of the bill to show appreciation to the person who has provided you a service.

    Tipping culture can vary from place to place. In the Middle East, people who serve usually try to be more helpful. . An example is the tour guides of Egypt. When a tourist goes around a famous site in Egypt like the pyramids, they'11 often be accompanied by a very qualified tour guide. Thanks to the guide, a tourist will certainly know more about the pyramids than he or she did at the start. .

    In some places, tipping doesn't exist at all. Tips aren't part of life in China, South Korea or Japan. But in other places in Asia, not leaving a tip can lead to trouble. An American travel agent told Conde Nast Traveler that in India, for example, a person who doesn't leave a tip after a meal in a restaurant will often be chased down the street. , he said.

    Many people only give tips on a subjective (主观的)basis. But it's this subjective aspect to tipping that can cause problems. On the one hand, they don't want to be mean; on the other hand, they don't want to pay too much and feel that they've been cheated. .

A common solution for this problem is to offer a guideline on the check. .

This can prevent the awkwardness when it's time to pay up.

A. Tips are then given to appreciate the expertise of the guide

B. If you tip badly, people think less of you

C. They'll run after you and scream for money

D. It will suggest that a certain percentage of the bill should be paid on top as a tip

E. Very often people who travel to the United States forget to tip

F. After all, a tip isn't part of the bill

G. But they may expect a little extra in return

You've heard that plastic is polluting the oceans—between 4.8 and 12.7 million tonnes enter ocean ecosystems every year. But does one plastic straw or cup really make a difference? Artist Benjamin Von Wong wants you to know that it does. He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, foreing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products.

At the beginning of the year, the artist built a piece called "Strawpocalypse," a pair of 10-foot-tall plastic waves, frozen mid-crash. Made of 168, 000 plastic straws collected from several volunteer beach cleanups, the sculpture made its first appearance at the Estella Place shopping center in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled. Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source (来源)of plastic pollution, but they've recently come under fire because most people don't need them to drink with and, because of their small size and weight, they cannot be recycled. Every straw that's part of Von Wong's artwork likely came from a drink that someone used for only a few minutes. Once the drink is gone, the straw will take centuries to disappear.

In a piece from 2018, Von Wong wanted to illustrate (说明) a specific statistic: Every 60 seconds, a truckload's worth of plastic enters the ocean. For this work, titled "Truckload of Plastic" Von Wong and a group of volunteers collected more than 10, 000 pieces of plastic, which were then tied together to look like they'd been dumped(倾倒)from a truck all at once.

Von Wong hopes that his work will also help pressure big companies to reduce their plastic footprint.

  1. (1) Which is the main idea of the text?
    A . Artists's opinions on plastic safety B . Media Interest in contemporary art C . Responsibility demanded of big companies D . Ocean plastics transformed into statues
  2. (2) What are Von Wong's artworks intended for?
    A . Drawing public attention to plastic waste. B . Beautifying the city he lives in. C . Introducing eco-friendly products. D . Reducing garbage on the beach.
  3. (3) Why does the author discuss plastic straws in paragraph 3?
    A . To explain why they are useful. B . To voice his views on modern art. C . To show the difficulty of their recycling. D . To find a substitute for them.
  4. (4) What effect would "Truckload of Plastic" have on viewers?
    A . Worrying B . Calming C . Refreshing D . Challenging
Prevention of Aids should be taught routinely in universities because of the effects ______ can have on keeping students from being infected with Aids.

What is a port city?

The port city provides a rich understanding of the movement of people and goods around the world. We understand a port as a centre of island-sea exchange and a major force for cultural mixing.

Ports and harbours

Harbor is a physical concept, a shelter for ships; Port is an economic concept, a centre of land-sea exchange which demands goods for export and import. Some ports were developed from poor harbours which were improved with breakwaters( 防水堤 ) and dredging( 清淤 ). Madras and Colombo are examples of harbours expensively improved by enlarging, dredging and building breakwaters.

________________________

Port cities become industrial, financial and service centres and political capitals because of their water connections and the urban concentration which draws to it railways, highways and air routes. Water transport means cheap access, the chief basis of all port cities. Many of the world’s biggest cities, for example, London, New York, Shanghai, Tokyo and San Francisco began as ports-that is, with land-sea exchange as their major function. Although their port functions are no longer dominant now, they remain different kinds of places from non-port cities and their port functions account for that difference.

International city and trade

Port functions, more than anything else, can make a city more international. A port is open to the world. In it races, cultures, as well as goods from a variety of places, mix and enrich each other and the life of the city. But much domestic port trade has not been recorded. What evidence we have suggests that domestic trade was greater at all periods than foreign trade. Shanghai, for example, did most of its trade with other Chinese ports and inland cities, Calcutta traded mainly with other parts of India and so on.

Position of port city centre

Cities which began as ports keep the chief commercial and administrative centre of the city close to the waterfront. The centre of New York is in lower Manhattan between two river mouths, the city of London is on the Thames, Shanghai along the Bund. This is also true of Boston, Bombay, Madras, Bangkok and Singapore, where the commercial, financial, and administrative centres are still grouped around their harbours even though each city has expanded into a big one. Even a casual visitor cannot mistake them as anything but port cities.

1 Which port city is changed from a harbour by improving the facilities?

A Singapore. B Bangkok. C New York. D Madras.

2 Which would be the best heading for Paragraph 2?

A Good ports, huge profit centres.

B Once a port city, always a port city.

C Water transport, basis of port cities.

D Port functions, a feature of big cities.

3 What can we learn about port cities?

A They have water connections.

B They don’t trade with inland cities.

C They are easily mistaken for harbours.

D They moved their chief centres away from waterfront.

People always say that the earlier one learns a language, the       it is to do so, in theory it is that,      , in my opinion, that refers to spoken language. Capability(能力) to practice some essential(基本的)      of a language and read between the lines can only be trained through proper reading ways and hard work       .So spending money to help        learn English may       up with disappointment.

Some of us is having problems with our parents, as they often look for our school bags. I fully understand when we are not comfortable about it, but there is no need to feel too sadly. Our parents check our bags to make it sure we’re not getting into trouble. They had probably heard some horrible stories about other kid and think we might do the same. Or perhaps they just want to connect with us and are doing it all wrong. I suggest that we telling them we want them to trust us as much we’d like to trust them.

I am Li Ping. I understand the grammar and the readings in my class and I think my writing is good, but I'm very nervous when I speak English.

I am Yoshi. I have been in the United States for one year. I'm studying hard and I know grammar well, but the vocabulary is very difficult. When I listen, I don't understand many of the words. When I try to read, there are three or four new words in every sentence. I feel discouraged.

pound(狗收留所).

put the dogs out.  As I was walking the first one outthe second rushed past rne

surprisingly and she was gone.

imind I have given Cadynice home with。。abundance of foodgood waterand even

her own doggy bed for over two years now.

    With tears welling up in my eyesI heard my daughter's voice,“Dadyou just

dont understand.  If Cady is at the poundno one will adopt her.  Who would pick

her? She is three years old and not even pretty like Casey.”My heart softened.  I felt

sad for having been so callous.  As we pulled into the drivewaythere stood Cady in the

back yardtail wagging and ready for some supper.  I will make every effort to prevent

any future escapes,
