第一节 阅读下列材料，选择正确的答案 （20分）
(A)
Everybody will have some health problems. Here are Mr. Black’s problems and his doctor‘s advice. I hope it can help you.
Mr. Black’s problems:
My name is David Black. I live in a small house. When I eat and drink, I am always worried they are dirty. So when I am hungry or thirsty, I don’t want to eat food or drink water. And I never go out when the weather is cold or hot because I don’t want to talk with others. I hardly exercise, but sometimes I take a walk in my garden. After I walk for a few minutes, I have to take a rest. I am always very weak and tired. I often have a headache, but I don’t want to see a doctor. What should I do?
Dr Smith’s advice:
Traditional Chinese doctors believe that we need a balance of yin and yang to be healthy. I think you have too much yin because you are always worried about something and you don’t like going out or talking with others.
I think you should eat some yang foods, like beef and you need to exercise more. Also, talking with others can make you feel relaxed.
And if you don’t feel very well, it’s important for you to go to see a doctor. And you will feel better after you take some Chinese medicine.

I need some advice on how to make friends! I have just moved to a new city. I am 13. I don’t know anybody here and I want to make some friends. What’s the best way? Where can I meet people?
Yours,
Tony
★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★
Dear Tony,
There are lots of things you can do. First, you can ride your bike in your neighborhood and try to find some kids. When you find some, you can go up and talk to them. You should also let your parents know that you want to make friends because they can help you. Maybe you can ask your parents to take you to the library or some places where there are lots of kids. You could try joining an art class or a sports club. These are all great ways to meet people. You can try making friends at churches（教堂）too if you go to church on Sundays. Try to be active wherever you are, but just be yourself and don’t try so hard. It takes time and patience（耐心）. I hope you will find a good friend soon!
Yours,
Know

第二节 语篇翻译。（5分）
71When I had something difficult to do, I used to ask my mother for help. But she always said, “Do it yourself, dear.” I was not glad at all. 72我认为她是世界上最懒惰的母亲。
For example, one day, I decided to invite some friends to my home. My bedroom is not in order. Books were everywhere. And I didn’t make my bed. 73我叫我妈妈帮我打扫房间, but she still said, “Do it yourself, girl.”
74Because of my “lazy mother”, I have to wash my clothes and clean my room. I have to help my parents do housework. I even have to go to the dentist by myself. 75It is really hard for me to do everything well, but I have learned a lot.
As time goes by, I understand my mother. She makes me know how a great mother should be like!
A good mother is worth（等值于）one hundred teachers! Don’t you think so?
