Maybe you have ever seen a cross. A cross can be a piece of jewelry or an image in

a painting. But do you know the cross is a very popular symbol for Christmas?

It came from the story of Jesus’ death on the cross two thousand years ago in Jerusalem. Jesus was Jewish,and at that time Jewish people were under Roman rule. Jesus was badly punished because he declared to be the Son of God and the King of Jews. Surely,the Son of God could have saved himself from the death!But the Bible says that Jesus had a reason to die that day. It was in God’s purpose that it would happen.[

Christians call the day that Jesus died “Good Friday”. At first,it is hard to understand how a terrible day could ever be called good. Well,the story does not end there. Jesus died and he was buried. But three days later,Jesus was alive,and the whole world was changed.

Today,Christians everywhere remember this important time. They celebrate Easter. Easter is the day that Jesus rose from the dead. After his death on the cross,Jesus’ body was placed in a tomb. On the third day from then,God raised him from the dead. Jesus stayed on earth physically for several weeks. Many people saw him. Easter is the happiest time of year for Christians because they believe that Jesus had victory over death and evil and that now he lives with God the Father in heaven. But before celebrating Easter, Good Friday should be remembered. Jesus died a horrible and painful death. He suffered, though he did nothing wrong. Christian believe that Jesus was God’s substitute(代表) for humans, because humans all do wrong. He died because of humans and he died for humans.

Christians often wear crossed around their necks of hang them in their homes because they believe it is a very important sign. The cross helps them remember how much God loves them.

People all need friends because nobody wants to be lonely and a friend can help you in good and bad times. You have made friends since childhood, but you still don’t know who your true friends are. Here are some signs to tell you if your friend is a true friend:

Always honest

Honesty is important to keep a relationship alive. A true friend always tells you the truth. It may be hard sometimes but lying can destroy a friendship. It is important that your friend speaks honestly and never makes up stories.

There are always periods in your life when you have problems or difficulties. A true friend will always have time to listen to your problems and give advice. It may not be able to offer a solution to your problems but the fact that your friend made time to listen is a sign he/she cares for you. Your friend is not a true friend if he/she can never make time for you when you are in trouble. You also need to be reasonable and accept that your friend also has other things to do so he/she can’t always listen immediately to your problems.

Always respectful (尊敬的)

A true friend will always respect your opinion no matter whether he/she agrees or not. Your true friend may disagree but never insists that he/she is correct.

Always understanding

It is possible that some problems will arise between you and your friend. A true friend will always be forgiving (体谅的) and understanding even if it isn’t his/her fault. We are all different people and we all make mistakes. A true friend is always forgiving and understanding because he/she doesn’t want to take the risk of losing his/her best friend.

'Off we go!'cried Mr Wonka.'Hurry up,everybody!Follow me to the next room! And please don't worry about Augustus Gloop.He's bound to come out in the wash.They always do.We shall have to make the next part of the journey by boat!Here she comes!Look!'

A steamy mist was rising up now from the great warm chocolate river,and out of the mist there appeared suddenly a most fantastic pink boat.It was a large open row boat with a tall front and a tall back (like a Viking boat of old),and it was of such a shining sparkling glistening pink colour that the whole thing looked as though it were made of bright,pink glass.There were many oars(桨)on either side of it,and as the boat came closer,the watchers on the riverbank could see that the oars were being pulled by masses of Oompa-Loompas—at least ten of them to each oar.

'This is my private yacht!'cried Mr Wonka,beaming with pleasure.'I made her by hollowing out an enormous boiled sweet!Isn't she beautiful!See how she comes cutting through the river!'The gleaming pink boiled-sweet boat glided up to the riverbank.One hundred Oompa-Loompas rested on their oars and stared up at the visitors.Then suddenly,for some reason best known to themselves,they all burst into shrieks of laughter.

'What's so funny?'asked Violet Beauregarde,a girl who was chewing gum.

'Oh,don't worry about them!'cried Mr Wonka.'They're always laughing!They think everything's a colossal joke! Jump into the boat,all of you!Come on!Hurry up!'

As soon as everyone was safely in,the Oompa-Loompas pushed the boat away from the bank and began to row swiftly downriver.

'Hey,there!Mike Teavee!'shouted Mr Wonka.'Please do not lick the boat with your tongue!It'll only make it sticky!'

'Daddy,'said Veruca Salt,'I want a boat like this!I want you to buy me a big pink boiled-sweet boat exactly like Mr Wonka's!And I want lots of Oompa-Loompas to row me about,and I want a chocolate river and I want...I want...'

'She wants a good kick in the pants,'whispered Grandpa Joe to Charlie.The old man was sitting in the back of the boat and little Charlie Bucket was right beside him.Charlie was holding tightly on to his grandfather's bony old hand.He was in a whirl of excitement.Everything that he had seen so far—the great chocolate river,the waterfall,the huge sucking pipes,the minty sugar meadows,the Oompa-Loompas,the beautiful pink boat,and most of all,Mr Willy Wonka himself—had been so astonishing that he began to wonder whether there could possibly be any more astonishments left.Where were they going now?What were they going to see?And what in the world was going to happen in the next room?

'Isn't it marvellous?'said Grandpa Joe,grinning at Charlie.Charlie nodded and smiled up at the old man.

Suddenly,Mr Wonka,who was sitting on Charlie's other side,reached down into the bottom of the boat,picked up a large mug,dipped it into the river,filled it with chocolate,and handed it to Charlie.'Drink this,'he said.'It'll do you good!You look starved to death!'Then Mr Wonka filled a second mug and gave it to Grandpa Joe.'You,too,'he said. 'You look like a skeleton!What's the matter?Hasn't there been anything to eat in your house recently?'

'Not much,' said Grandpa Joe.

Charlie put the mug to his lips,and as the rich warm creamy chocolate ran down his throat into his empty tummy,his whole body from head to toe began to tingle with pleasure,and a feeling of intense happiness spread over him.

1.How many children followed Mr Wonka to the next room?

A. Three. B. Four.

C. Five. D. Six.

2.Which of the following gives the correct order of what happened?

a.The Oompa-Loompas burst into laughter.

What’s going on under Liverpool?

A Rainy Day in Liverpool

Dark clouds appear over the River Mersey and a cold wind is blowing. A few rain drops are beginning to fall. We’re in the famous city of Liverpool and we’re going to spend this rainy day in the Williamson Tunnels.

An Interesting Life Story

Joseph Williamson was born into a poor family in 1769,but left home and went to work for a tobacco company aged 11. He began at the bottom, and finally became head of the business.

An Unsolved Mystery

Nobody knows why Williamson dug tunnels under most of Liverpool, but many think it was to create jobs. Perhaps half of Liverpool’s population worked for him. The industry of war had made enormous amounts of money, but now Liverpool was in a terrible financial situation.

The King of Edge Hill

I went on a guided tour starting close to where his empire began in Edge Hill. In the tunnels, the steps leading from rooms below ground to those buildings, which no longer exist, seem particularly ghostly.

Incredible Engineering

We go into the Double Tunnel. It’s just been discovered that it’s actually a triple tunnel - but nobody knows why the three tunnels were built on top of each other.

We finish the tour and decide we’ll have a coffee in the Williamson Tunnels Cafe Bar. There, I notice lots of flyers for bands and theater groups that are coming to play there.

Why Liverpool?

Apart from the obvious attractions like the football clubs, or anything to do with the Beatles, Liverpool has a lot to offer. Princes Park and Croxteth Park were royal hunting grounds and the trees are 200 years old. Renshaw Street displays are an unusual mix of architecture styles. The nightlife is exciting. If you want to experience a part of the British Isles with a character entirely different from London, you should definitely come to Liverpool.

1.Which of the following is TRUE about Joseph Williamson?

A. He was born in the early 1700s.

B. He left home when he turned 18.

C. He worked for a tobacco company when he was young.

D. He started his business by himself but ended up broke.

2.Where did Williamson start his business?

A. Princes Park. B. Edge Hill.

C. Croxteth Park. D. Renshaw Street.

3.What can you do in Liverpool?

a. Join football clubs.

b. Enjoy Beatles music.

c. Visit famous tourist spots.

d. Enjoy the beautiful beach.

A. abd B. bcd

C. acd D. abc

Sandy arrived at the museum at last. She was so tired that she has to find a chair to sit on. If she sat down, she noticed nice painting on the wall. She stared with it for a long time--- such long, that she fell asleep.

Suddenly, she felt a tap on his shoulder. She looked up and saw a man on a horse wear a metal suit. He was only a sculpture a moment ago, but by now he was alive and talking to Sandy! She was so frightening that she ran down the hall.

From around the corner she could hear someone singing. She went to see what it was but there was nobody in sight.
