My favourite great book is The Adventure of Tom Sawyer by Mark
Twain．Tom lives with
his aunt Polly in a quiet street of St. Petersburg, Missouri．He'
s a lively
and clever
young boy，and he finds himself in many
adventures(冒险)．He runs away with his
two friends，Huck Finn and Joe，to an island in the middle of the
Mississippi River for
several days．With Huck he goes looking for treasure, with Becky he
gets lost in a cave．and
finally，they find a box of gold．
My favourite scene in the book is when
everyone thinks Tom is dead．He decides
his own funeral．He hides and watches for
a time, and then suddenly he
appears. Everyone is
surprised to see him but they're also
pleased to see him alive．
Tom is the hero of the story，but there are other important
characters．Huck is an
outsider and everyone is afraid of him．Becky is pretty with fair
hair，Joe is Tom'
best friend．and Injun Joe is the bad man of the story.
The theme of the story is about children growing up．It describes
how strangers are
seen in small towns of America. Finally, it talks about freedom，social rules and how
people are punished(惩罚)for bad behaviour.
Why do I think The Adventure of Tom Sawyer is a great book? Mark
Twain wrote the story
in 1876，but it's still read and loved by people all over the world
today．And although
it's only a story. Twain wrote it in the everyday English of the
southern states of
America in the 19th century，so it sounds very real. Today it's thought
to be one of the
greatest books in American literature.
on--- read it! I know you'
ll enjoy it，too.
1．Who is the bad man in the story?
A. Huck Finn．
B. Injun Joe．
C. Becky．
D. Polly．
2．How did people feel when Tom appeared at his own funeral ?
A. They were surprised and pleased．
B. They were surprised
C. They were worried and excited．
D. They were frightened
and happy．
3．The whole book is mainly about _______ ．
A. freedom and social rules
B. children's bad behaviour
C. the growth of young children
D. strangers in
American small towns

Now the VOA Special English program Words and Their Stories
Many everyday American expressions are based on colors.
Red is a hot color. Americans often use it to express heat. When
they are red-hot,
they are very angry about something. Fast loud music is popular with
many people.
They may say such music is red-hot.
Pink is a lighter kind of red. People sometimes say they are in the
pink when they
are in good health. The expression was first used in America at the
beginning of the 20th
century. It probably comes from the fact that many babies are born
with a nice pink color
that shows that they are in good health.
Blue is a cool color. The blues music in the United States is the
opposite of red-hot
music. Blues is slow and sad. Someone who is blue is very sad.
The color green is natural for trees and grass. But it is an
unnatural color for humans.
A person who has a sick feeling in the stomach may say he feels a
little green. A passenger
on a boat who is feeling very sick from high waves may look very
green. Sometimes a person
because he does not have something as nice as a friend has, like a
fast new car.
That person may say he is green with
envy. Some people are green with envy because a friend
has more dollars or greenbacks. Dollars are called greenbacks because
that is the color of
the back of the paper money.
The color black is used often in expressions. People describe a day
on which everything
goes wrong as a black day.
I’m Warren Scheer. Listen again next week for another Words and
Their Stories

British people are famous for drinking tea. But brother and sister,
Sarah and Bobby
Green, became young millionaires when they opened a chain of
American-style coffee
shops in the UK.
Having the idea: It started when Sarah took a weekend trip to New York to visit
her brother Bobby. One evening, in a Thai
restaurant, Sarah told Bobby how much she
wished she could buy American-style
coffee in London. Bobby suggested
they started
their own coffee shop. Sarah fell in love
with the idea.
Doing the Research: Back in London, she spent a whole day on the
London subway,
getting off the train at different stations to taste the coffee. “It
was terrible,
and I knew there was a gap (空缺) in the market.” In 1995, they opened
their first
Coffee Republic shop in central London.
Making it work: The first year was very difficult. British people
were not used
to the names of American coffees, like latte and macchiato. But being
successful was
their dream and they were not going to give up. Today, there are over

七、补充句子【补充句子 共有（1）题】
A) 阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容，在文章后第1~10小题的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词，
注意每个空格只填1个单词。
Hey! Mother's Day is coming. Have you planned something good for
your mom? If not,
try one of these tips.
　　What's Her Favorite?
　　Most teens don't know what their mom's favorite is. You do? Then,
what are you waiting
for? Buy her something she likesand wrap it carefully. The best time
to give her that is
while she is sleeping at night. Put it on the drawer next to her so
that when she wakes up
she'll be surprised to see it.
　　Treat a Queen
Your house is a palace with a king and queen (it doesn't matter if
you're rich or poor).
Our mother is the real queen in our life and in our family though her
duties make her look
like she is not. Give the lady a day off and you can do the
housework.　　
Because of stress and the problems that she is facing right now,
she doesn't look good
any more. Perhaps you could take some of your savings to treat her in
a salon or the
department store. Then, choose nice clothes that would make her look beautiful!
　　Have Some of Your Time
Our mothers have special memories in mind. It is the time that
they gave birth to their
healthy baby. How about you? What's your best moment with her? Have
you ever had a good time
with your mother not talking about your problems and arguments? Have
you ever told her how much
you thank her for the life she gave to you, the time she cared for
you? Maybe you can tell her
how happy you are when she was there looking after you during your
painful days in your life.
Tell the magic words
Life is short. We don't know what will happen tomorrow. Those
three words can make her
heart jump for joy, you know? Just tell her “I love you!”and it would
make her smile so
sweetly. Just try! We don't want to miss a thing, right?

B）根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词。
Experts say that students usually need eight to ten hour's sleep at
night. But
most Chinese students do not get e 1
sleep. Some Chinese parents a
glad to see their children studying late. They will think their
hard. But not a
parents are very happy about this. Once a mother told us that
every morning her 10-year-old boy put up one finger with his eyes
for one m 5
minute to sleep. Like t
of students in China, he has to get up before
six every morning.
A report shows that w
a good night' students seem to be weaker than they
should be. Many students have fallen a
during class at one time or another. Too much
homework is not the only reason why students stay u 9
late. Some watch TV or play computer
games late into the night. Experts have ever said that students should
develop good study
. Some clever students never study late, but they are able to work
well in class.
