Once upon a time, two brothers who lived on neighboring farms fell into conflict (冲突). It was the first serious one between them in 40 years of farming peacefully side by side. In the end,they fell apart.
One morning, a man with a carpenter's toolbox came for some work. The elder brother said,“I just have a job for you. Look at that farm across the creek (河沟). My younger brother lives there. It was he who used his bulldozer (推土机) to dig the creek last week to spite (刁难) me. So I want you to build me a fence, an 8foothigh fence, in order not to see his place any more.” The carpenter smiled and said,“I see. I'll try to do a job that satisfies you.” Then the elder brother went downtown.
At sunset when the farmer returned,the carpenter had just finished his job. The farmer's eyes opened wide! To his surprise, there was no fence there at all!Instead, there was a bridge stretching from one side of the creek to the other! A fine piece of work! He saw his younger brother coming to him with the hands outstretching. The brothers stood at each end of the bridge,and then they met in the middle, taking each other's hands. They turned to see the carpenter lift his toolbox on his shoulder.“No, wait! Stay a few days. I've a lot of other work for you,”said the elder brother.“I'd love to stay on,” the carpenter said,“but I have so many more bridges to build.”

(2015·安徽铜陵五中第一次月考)China's new term,tuhao,may be in next year's Oxford English Dictionary. The word caught the attention of the dictionary's editing team after BBC's recent program on influential Chinese words. “If its influence continues, it is very likely to appear on our updated list of words,” said Julie Kleeman, project manager with the editing team.
In Chinese tu means uncouth (笨拙的) and hao means rich. It has traditionally been referred to rich people who throw_their_weight_around in China's countryside. The word became more popular in September with the launch of Apple's new goldcolored iPhone, which is loved by China's rich people. The color became known as “tuhao gold”. The word is now also used by the online community to refer to people who have the cash but lack the class to go with it. Kleeman also mentioned two other Chinese words—dama and hukou—which may also make it into the dictionary.
People can have an intuitive (直观的) grasp of the meanings if they see pinyin,Kleeman said, adding that people avoid using an English word to keep the original meaning.
“We have nearly 120 Chineselinked words now in Oxford English Dictionary,” she said. Some of them are: Guanxi,which means “connection”;Taikonaut,a mix of taikong,meaning outer space, and astronaut.
The new words will be first uploaded on the official website before the dictionaries arrive. The online version is also renewed every three months. “It at least broke our old rules. It used to take 10 years to include a new word but now we keep the pace with the time,” according to a statement from exchiefeditor John Simpson.
[语篇解读] 文章介绍了汉语中的“土豪”很可能明年收入到牛津词典中,文章介绍了土豪的意义,以及可能收录的原因。

Everyone needs a break, and vacations are not meant for serious study. __1__ The Spring Festival is coming up so this is the perfect time to discuss some great English language literature to take on a long train journey.
Before getting into the recommendations, you need to determine your English reading comprehension level. If you're at the beginner level, there are two options: reading a children's book or reading a book that you've read in Chinese translation. __2__ If you're at the intermediate level, popular books like pop fiction, mysteries and thrillers are good options. For advanced readers, classic works of literature or modern prize winners (Nobel, Pulitzer) are good options.
__3__ When I pick up a book I like, even though the first few chapters are really hard to get through, I would try to get accustomed to the language the author uses. Generally, after the first few chapters, things get a lot easier, especially if I get involved in the story.
Another great way to keep yourself motivated is to find a friend who's interested in reading the same book. You can make goals that you both want to achieve. __4__
Some quick recommendations: Harry Potter, start with the first book and go on from there; the Narnia series; anything by US writer Michael Crichton; and if you like horror, US writer Stephen King is always unusual and fun. __5__ Happy reading!
A.If you pick a book which is so challenging, it will be too stressful.
B.The most important thing is to pick a book that you're really interested in.
C.You may also enjoy your reading when hanging out with your family.
D.You should just find a topic or an author you're interested in, and the rest will go from there.
E.You can also discuss plot lines or vocabulary issues with each other by SMS or email.
F.Instead, they're a great way to take a break and enjoy a good book.

Ⅴ.短文改错
Time flies! This is a third year that I have been in this school. In the past two and a half years, our school had organized many activities. What impressed me best was an activity called “Learning to Farm”. In an autumn afternoon, we were sent to a farm which we learned to plant potatoes. Having been in the city for so a long time, we were so happy to go to the countryside. After divided into three groups, we started to work. Some students cut potatoes into pieces; some dug holes, and the others put the pieces of potatoes into the hole, put the earth back and pushed them down hard. We continued doing that until all the work was done. Although we were exhausted, but we felt fulfilled on our way back home.
