Dear Shirley，
I've learned you want to know about my family and your bedroom in your last letter．My parents had been waiting for the moment for such a long time．They have prepared for everything you may need during your stay in China．My elder brother Li Hua is a freshman who study in Hebei Univeristy．He really wants to be your guide，take you to some pubs to listen to music or watch football match．My grandfather is very kind that he's willing to tell you much about Chinese culture and history．The bedroom you will live in is just opposite to me，and there are a portable computer and a TV set．The double bed may make you feel more comfortably to sleep on．Necessities of life are available．I believe in my family，you can not only have enjoyable and unforgettable experience，but learn a lot about China，that can greatly enrich your life．

8．The term"helicopter parents"refers to"a style of parents who are over focused on their children"．
Helicopter parents are always making a big push to provide children with every opportunity to succeed，from baby steps at age 1，homework at age 8，college application at age 18，employment issues at age 25to family problems at age 30，40 or even older．They constantly shadow the child，always directing his behavior，allowing him zero alone time．
Helicopter parenting can develop for a number of reasons．Worries about the economy，the job market，and the world in general can push parents toward taking more control over their child's life in an attempt to protect them．Adults who felt unloved or ignored as children can overcompensate with their own children．When parents see other overinvolved parents，it can cause a similar response．They feel that if they don't involve themselves in their children's lives，they are bad parents．
The main problem with helicopter parenting is that it can backfire．To give an example，the house where Mary lived with roommates was broken into and things were stolen．Mary called the landlord（房東）to install an alarm system，but before she could finish the negotiations（協(xié)商），her mother rushed in and demanded action．"I felt like my mother ruined my communication with our landlord．We could have gotten it done ourselves．She was well intended but only made me feel annoyed and defeated，"says Mary．
Obviously，overparenting is motivated with the idea of doing good things but it does the exact opposite．In the long run parents are actually damaging their child's basic skills to deal with matters independently．It makes the child feel lacking in confidence，less competent in dealing with the stresses of life on their own．They're winning the battle，but actually losing the war．

29．What's the purpose of helicopter parents'overparenting？A
A．To do something good for their children．
B．To make their children not ignored．
C．To help their children find a good job．
D．To get rid of the pressure from other parents．
30．What can we learn from the passage？D

B．Helicopter parenting only happens to very young children．
C．Helicopter parents can protect their children against all problems．
D．Helicopter parents do their children great harm in the long run．

B．Objective．

7．The holidays don't have to be hard on your figure．We asked past winners of NBC's The Biggest Loser how they lost their weight．
1．Don't let the weather stop you．
"The winter was frightening me away-I was afraid I wouldn't be able to exercise．So I'm learning to play ice hockey（曲棍球）!To keep yourself going，find things that are fun for you．"
-Helen Phillips，season 7
2．Get back up after you fall．
"I lost 214 pounds on The Biggest Loser，but finally the weight started to return because I stopped making the effort．I had to remember：going to the gym is not a punishment-it's something I do because I care about myself．"
-Erik Chopin，season 3
3．Remember that age is just a number．
"Before I went on the show，I sat on the sofa and lived my life through the TV．Now，in addition to ice hockey，I've tried running and I've become a runner-and I'm 50 years old!If you want to lose the weight，ask yourself："is it that I can't or that I won't？"
-Helen Phillips
4．Set small goals，and celebrate when you reach them．
"I needed goals，different things to go after in a day-a distance that you can cover or a weight goal．Without them，I wasn't celebrating myself enough，and I got really good at beating myself up．"
-Ali Vincent
5．Squeeze（擠）it in．
"When I'm in the store，I'll do lunges up and down exercise．In the checkout line，you could do squats．I used to worry about what people thought of me，but I don't care anymore．I know I'm going to get the last laugh．"
-Ali Vincent

Last Sunday，I went to the market with my mother to buy some freshly vegetables．My mother spent a long time bargaining before she paid for vegetables she had chosen．She wanted to get it at the lowest price because of she thought she could save some money in this way．Before coming back，she cooked such many dishes that we couldn't eat them all．So we had to throw some foods away．As a result，the money we wasted was much than that saved from bargaining．I couldn't help feel concerned．I think the best way to save money was to stop wasting．

4．Best All-Time Children's Books
Reading to your kids is one of the all-time best things you can do with them，and for them．I love reading to my kids，and they love reading with me．It is some of the best quality time ever，and sharing a good book with a child is just a wonderful feeling．
I've listed of my all-time favorite children's books-a list that can start any child's library．It's a starting point，to be sure-I'm sure you can think of many more to be included．But these are books I truly love （and my kids do too） and I think most kids and parents will love them．These are mostly time-tested classics，so there might not be too many surprises here，but sometimes it's useful to be reminded of books we've forgotten about．Where the Wild Thing's Are，by Maurice Sendak．I can never get enough of this book．It is truly awesome．Great drawings，great imagination．If I had to choose just 10books on this list，this would be one of them．
Guess How Much I Love You，by Sam Mcbratney．I love you all the way to the moon and back!Fun to read this with your kids，and then later compete to see how much you love each other．
The Giving Tree，by Shel Silverstein．If Seuss is the best，Silverstein is right behind him．If I had to list just 10 books here，this book would be one of them．Such a sweet，sad，true book，with great drawings of course．
Matilda，by Roald Dahl．Perhaps my favorite Dahl book．While reading this book，you want to have Matilda as a friend，and during the time you are with her，she is your friend．
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory，by Roald Dahl．A classic，of course，and yet another poor kid who inevitably enters your heart．
The Little Prince，by Antoine de Saint-Exupery．Originally published in French，this classic is so unique，I cannot really describe it．If you haven't read it to your child，please do．
Magic Tree House Series，by Mary Pope Osborne．A very long series （over 30last time I counted） of fun，adventurous and educational books．It covers stuff kids love，like dinosaurs and ninjas and knights and wizards，and makes history come alive．My son is in love with this series．

First，you should be prepared and understand the subject of your speech completely．The more familiar you are with the subject，the less nervous you will be．【高分句型二】Besides，look at your nervousness as a positive thing，which can give you the energy to deliver your speech in an emotive way．Last but not least，as the old saying goes，the confidence is the first secret of success．So do have faith in yourself．（給出建議并說明理由）

2．People who seem to have all the luck are not usually blessed by a large amount of good fortune．They simply have a healthy attitude，which enables them to make the most of situations．Here are some tips for creating your own luck．
1．Be Grateful For What You Have．
Some people are already lucky，and they just don'know it．（36）GFor example，you have a happy family，some wonderful friends，a roof over your head and food on the table．By acknowledging these things regularly，you can instantly feel luckier．
2．See the Good in the Past
People sometimes complain about their past for holding them back．They blame their parents or their schooling for not setting them up for success．But having a difficult life develops strengths and qualities you might never have got if you hadn't been through those tough situations．（37）B
3．Be Generous
If you want people to give you opportunities，you have to consider what you can do for others．（38）ABe generous with your time and attention，and you'll be surprised how many lucky opportunities people may offer you．
4．Be Open to New things
Luck doesn't just happen upon us-it comes to us when we're open．（39）ELearning new skills，visiting a new place，or trying a Dew hobby are all great ways of expanding your opportunities and your mindset．
5．Take Action
（40）DTake steps towards your  goals and dreams and greet every challenge with a positive mindset．You will find you create more luck in everyday life．

A．You cannot expect to receive if you never give．
B．So be grateful for the good that came from your past．
C．Many people spend time thinking about what they don't have．
D．You'll never create any luck if you sit there waiting for it to come．
E．Trying something new is a great way of getting more opportunities．
F．But often success comes from great determination rather than good luck．
G．Look at how lucky you already are instead of focusing on what's lacking．

20．My six-year-old granddaughter stares at me as if she is seeing me（61）forthe first time．"Grandma，you are an antique，because you are old，"she says．I explain，"An antique is not only just old； it's an object（62）belonging（belong） to earlier times．Antiques are valuable．"
We look around the house for antiques．There is a large desk that（63）was handed（hand） down from an aunt to our family．"It's very old，"I tell Jenny．"I try to keep it（64）polished（polish），and I show it off whenever I can．"When Jenny（65）gets（get） older，I might also tell her that whenever I look at the desk or touch it，I am reminded of the aunt who was dear to me．I remember myself as a little girl standing against this antique，（68）listening（listen） to one of her stories．
Our tour of antiques continues．There is a picture on the wall，（67）whichdates from 1867，and it is not in very good condition．There is a vase on the floor．I'm not certain where it came from，（68）and\butI didn't buy it new．"The one thing about antiques，"I explain to Jenny，"is that they usually have a story．"
For a moment Jenny looks（69）thoughtful（thought）．"I don't have any antiques but you，"she says．Then（70）her（she）face brightens．"Could I take you to school for our antiques show？"
