My mother thought my hair was naturally beautiful, but my classmates didn’t agree. They made fun of it, calling my hair “the mop(拖把)”. When I got to college, I decided to change my hairstyle. I had my curly(卷曲的) hair straightened(拉直). However, it cost me $700 once every six months to do this. People said I was crazy to spend that much on my hair. But I was willing to do anything to never again see that curly-haired girl in the mirror（镜子）. But when I had to rent(租) my own apartment, the cost became too high. So I turned to the Internet, Google. In the end, I found a “curly haired” salon, a place designed for girls like me. When I arrived there, the stylist, Jacquai, was waiting for me. “Do you really think this will work?” I asked. “No curly hair is hopeless,” she replied. “You just haven’t found a way to work with it. That’s all.” After the hour was over, Jacquai had completed her work. She had fixed my hair using only her hands. I couldn’t believe it: My hair looked beautiful. Now my world has changed. I am more outgoing and confident（自信的） than before. People say that I am looking better than before, but that they don’t know what has changed. Hair is not just hair. I don’t need to tell them.

C A young couple named Xiexie and Caicai has proved(证明） it by visiting 18 Asian countries on a budget（预算） of 40,000 yuan.But when they broke the news on Sina Weibo last week，many people didn’t seem to believe them.“It couldn’t be true，” said a micro blogger named Uncle Fox on Sina Weibo. “I just don’t buy it.” Well，the truth is that there are smart ways to see the world. Many house holders worldwide will let you live in their homes for free while they are away. And it is completely one-way. That means you don’t have to offer your house in exchange. You need to help take care of their pets and plants. Working in return for accommodation（食宿）is a great way to learn about a country. You can get practical experience(实践经历），and save a lot of dollars on accommodation. Many hostels(旅社）around the world offer discounted(打折的）rooms or free meals to guests if they take part in volunteering programs. All you need to do is to check hostels online to see if they have a volunteer discount. Would you be willing to volunteer a half-day of your vacation in order to get 50 percent off the cost of your room? It seems interesting that we can see the world in these ways. Why not have a try?

D.A young couple visited 18 Asian countries D It was a cold winter afternoon before Christmas. My parents and I sat were waiting for the  train. There were many people inside the waiting hall were.

The boy thanked them and opened the box with joy and care. Suddenly he stopped. In the  direction to which he looked, I saw an old man in rags—in a worn sweater, worn trousers and  open shoes, entering the hall. Putting the meal box aside, the boy stood up and helped the old man to his seat. He took off  his jacket and covered it over the old man's shoulders, saying, "A gentleman brought me this  warm meal but I just finished eating. I hate to waste good food. Can you help me out?" He placed the still-warm meal box in the old man's hands without waiting for an answer. "Sure, son, but if only you share that sandwich with me. It's too much for a man at my age." We were all touched. Dad went away and soon returned with cups of hot chocolate and a big pizza. Mum and Dad went up to those in rags, "Excuse me…"     I rushed into a KFC and took out my pocket money.     It was so cold that afternoon but I felt much warmer than I had ever thought possible.

Are they lazy or is it a must? We asked 50 young people about the abbreviations they used and why they used them. Most of them said they used abbreviations when they were chatting online or sending SMS messages to each other. Oops! There is an abbreviation already! SMS is Short Message Service or a text message on a mobile phone. Of course, abbreviations make it possible for us to send more information in a shorter message or improve the speed(速度） of writing a message because we do not have to type (打字) a whole word. Some of the most often used abbreviations are “How r u?” (How are you?), “B4” (before) and “H2CUS” (hope to see you soon). You may have noticed that these abbreviations use a letter or number to create (创造) the sound of the word it is replacing (替换). In these examples, “r” is used to replace the word “are” and “2” is used to replace the word “to”. However, not all abbreviations use a letter or number to replace a word that has a similar sound. For example, “AML” means “all my love” and “BRB” means “be right back”. Maybe the number of abbreviations we use in chatting and in sending SMS messages is growing quickly because there are simply more abbreviations being used in the world around us. Take computers as an example. If you go into a shop and ask for a Compact Disc Read Only Memory, the shopkeeper will probably not understand and look at you strangely. That is why you would ask for a CD-ROM. With all of these abbreviations being used, what is happening to the English language? Some people say that they do not like chat rooms because they do not understand what is being said, even feeling like being in a foreign country. Others feel that these changes show our language is alive and evolving (逐步发展的). Whichever side you agree with, it is clear that abbreviations are here and they are not going to die out any time soon, so CUL8R.

After some time, the first seed said that she wanted to get off the ground 87 (see) the outside world. Whatever happened along the way, she was ready for it. She reached her legs down into the earth and grew. Then her arms grew up toward 88 sun. She had a colorful life. She met with problems now and then, 89 she was happy about her choice. As for the other seed, unlike the first 90 (seed) strong wish for the future, she sat there worrying. She was worried about what might happen when she left the ground. She was also worried about 91 (have) too much sun. Because her head was full of worries, she didn’t go anywhere. She played it safe and 92 (wait). One day, a hen came near the ground where the two seeds fell. Looking at the newly grown-up flower, the hen smiled 93 (happy). She loved it. Then she turned the other way and saw the seed. The hen picked up the seed and ate it. Some of us might be like the 94 (two) seed. There isn’t anything wrong with playing it safe. But playing it safe can sometimes be 95 (danger). If you want a good future, playing it safe isn’t always the way to go. You need to try and get out there. 九、书面表达(25分) 我们每个人会交很多朋友，我们不仅可以和人们交朋友，也可以和动物们交朋友。学校正组织题为“I want to make friends with _______!”的征文比赛，请根据提示，写一篇短文参赛。 1. Who/What do you want to make friends with? 2.
