Some people do not like to make a shopping list because it takes time. However,there are many reasons why you should make one. Firstly, a shopping list helps you to save time.When you write the list, you should put the things in different groups. For example, you can write down all the fruit and vegetables in one column（栏）.In the next column, you can write down all the meat.Do the same for other things. Keeping your list organized will help you shop faster. Secondly,a shopping list helps you not to forget anything. You would not want to get home from the store and find you didn't buy all the things you needed. A shopping list helps you to remember everything you want to buy. A shopping list can also help you to save money. Without a list you might not remember if you have enough milk at home. You might buy the milk as you think you don't have any. When you get home,you would see you already have a full bottle of milk. Then the extra（额外的）milk might go to waste. If you make a list, you will not buy the things you do not need. Although it wvill take you a few minutes to write out a shopping list，it is worth（值得）your time. ( )1.How does the writer start the passage? A.By telling a story. B.By asking a question..

But how do you find real friendship and keep it? The American writer Sally Seamans tells us some smart ways to find friends.In fact,finding friendship is just likeplanting a tree. You plant a seed(种子)and look after it to make it grow. So first of all, you should choose friends.You choose them not because they have money or good luck. You choose them just because they are kind and patient. When you have a bad time, a good friend can try his or her best to help you. If you want to make new friends, you shouldn't be shy. You should talk to others actively and warmly. You can say hello to them. You can talk about the weather, the news at home and abroad and your hobbies with them.Keep doing these things, and you can make friends easily. However,good friends may have different ideas about something.So what should you do when you disagree with your friends? You should talk to them as much as possible. Try to tell them what you think and why you want to do this or that. Remember that friendshipis very important in your life. You must look after it well just like looking after yourself. 1.The passage mainly talks about _____________________________________________.(不超过10词) 2.According to Sally Seamans,we should choose those who are ______________________．(不超过5词) 3. If we want to make new friends, we can talk about ______________________________________ _________________________________________．（列举两项，不超过10词） 4.What should you do if you and your friends disagree with each other according to the passage? ___________________________________________________________________________（不超过20词） 5.What do you think of friendship and why？ Use your own words.（结合自身实际，不超过20词） ______________________________________________________________________________________ 五、书面表达。（共15分） 假设你叫李华，你校英语报发起了以“A Helper of My Family”为题的征文活动。请你写一篇英语短文向校英语报投稿，要点如下： 要求：1．根据上图所给提示，适当发挥；2．文中不得出现真实姓名和校名；3．词数80词左右，标题和开头已给出，不计入总词数。 A Helper of My Family Hello,I am Li Hua.
