Dick I think cigarette smoking is highly addictive and very expensive. Especially when you’re 14 and get a $9 weekly allowance. I’m in ninth grade and started smoking in sixth, the first cigarette I ever had was in fifth grade. My morn was walking our dogs and found an unopened pack that she brought home to use as an insecticide in the garden. A friend had told her that tobacco stops ants from attacking plants. Of course, when I found the pack, I took the cigarettes to my bedroom and, being the little rebel I was, lit one with matches I stole from Dad. The fact I was actually smoking made me think I was cool. But my friend Donna didn’t think so. She just looked at me like I was the stupidest thing on earth. Which I probably ,as, I still smoke to this day. Benny I know it’s bad to smoke, and I’ve tried to quit, but it’s very hard since most my friends smoke too. When I started smoking regularly at the beginning fifth grade, not that many students smoked; by the and of the year, a lot were smoking. It was pretty bad. Some kids’ grades went down, including mine, from skipping classes to get nicotine into their systems. Now, in ninth grade, I’m still smoking. Andrew My parents don’t allow me to smoke, and often ask, "where do you buy cigarettes" I buy them anywhere. Hardly anyone ever asks me for ID. Maybe a look 18; maybe I just put another $2.50 in the cash register. The Safeway down the street won’t sell me cigarettes. Last time I went there, I stole four packs, got caught, and had to write an essay on why stealing is wrong. About five months after I started cigarettes. There’s no doubt in my mind that cigarettes are a drug. Almost everyone I know started smoking before doing drugs. That has to tell you something. Bill Since I’ve smoked, I can hardly run around the block without getting out of breath. My mom quit smoking 18 years ago, and my dad stopped smoking 14 years ago. My mom now has cancer, and my dad has had three heart attacks. My grandma quit nine years ago, and she has emphysema. Not only that--my two grandfathers died from the results of smoking. After all this, you’d think I’d know better than to continue. Frank I can’t tell that I smell of tobacco, but my parents and others can, I remember one time before I smoked, I left my jacket at a friend’s house. Both her parents smoked. When I got the jacket back, I had to throw it away because it smelled like an ash-tray. So I felt sorry for those who don’ t smoke and have to put up with my odor all day. When I smoke in my room at home, I hang out the window I have told my parents that I will try to stop smoking as a present to them. But I hate the thought of never having another cigarette. You see--no ifs, ands or buts--I’ m really hooked. Now match each of the teenagers (16 to 20) to the appropriate statement. Note: there are two extra statements.A. Smoking is a dangerous thing.B. Smoking is harmful to health.C. Smoking is cool.D. I began to smoke by accident.E. I began to smoke out of curiosity.F. Smoking had a bad effect on me.G. I am a heavy smoker now. Bill

Art is considered by many people to be little more than a decorative means of giving pleasure. This is not always the case, however, at times, art may be seen to have a purely functional side as well. Such could be said of the sand paintings of the Navaho Indians of the American Southwest; these have a medicinal as well as an artistic purpose. According to Navaho traditions, one who suffers from either a mental or physical illness has in some way disturbed or come in contact with the supernatural--perhaps a certain animal, a ghost or the dead. To counteract this evil contact, one of his relatives will employ a medicine man called a "singer" to perform a healing ceremony which will attract a powerful supernatural being. During the ceremony, which may last from 2 to 9 days, the "singer" will produce a sand-painting on the floor of the Navaho Hogan. On the last day of the ceremony, the patient will sit on this sand-painting and the "singer" will rub the ailing parts of the patient’s body with sand from a specific figure in the sand-painting. In this way the patent absorbs the power of that particular supernatural being and becomes strong like it. After the ceremony, the sand-painting is then destroyed and disposed of, so its power will not harm anyone. The art of sand-painting is handed dawn from old "singers" to their students. The materials used are easily found in the areas the Navaho inhabit; brown, red, yellow and white sandstone, which is pulverized by being crushed between 2 stones much as com is ground into flour. The "singer" holds a small amount of this sand in his hand and lets it flow between his thumb and forefingers onto a clean, flat surface on the floor. With a steady hand end great patience, he is thus able to create designs of stylized people, snakes and other creatures that have power in the Navaho belief system, the traditional Navaho does not allow reproduction of sand-paintings, since he believes the supernatural powers that taught him the craft have forbidden this; however, such reproductions can in fact be purchased today in tourist shops in Arizona and New Mexico. These are done by either Navaho Indians or by other people who wish to preserve this craft. The "singer" rubs sand on the patient because ______.

C 根据下面短文回答下列问题。 Long long ago, there was an old farmer who had seven children. When he thought that he was about to die, he let them come to his bed. He told the servant to bring in a bundle (一捆) of seven sticks (棍子) tied together (栓在一起). Giving the bundle to his oldest child, the father said to him, "Now break the bundle." The son tried with all his strength, but he could not break the bundle. One by one, the other children tried. But not one of them was strong enough to break it. The father smiled, "Now my children, untie the bundle. Each of you takes a stick and tries to break it." This time they had no difficulty doing it as their father told them. In a minute, all the sticks were broken. The seven children then understood what their father wanted to tell them. Before his death, the farmer gave each of his sons a bundle of sticks.
