    Saturday, 17th March
         Today I got my dream job in New York! However,
    it's far away from my home town and I've never visited
    New York before. Yesterday I took the train here and
    one of my workmates met me at the railway station.
    Then he showed me to the company. There they had a
    welcome party for me. Great!
         My company offered no living place, so I had to find
    somewhere to live. I stayed in a hotel while I looked
    for a new home.
    Sunday, 1st April
    I've found the perfect flat! It's small but very
    nice. It's near my office, so I can walk to work.
    The only problem is that it's $1,000 a month.
    That's too much for a young man like me!
         I've soon got used to the life here. I love it!
    There's a supermarket nearby and some
    restaurants
         I can go to when I do not want to cook. My
    workmates and new neighbours are friendly.
    It's April Fool's Day today and I even played
    a trick on my neighbour next door. Cool!
    1. How did Daniel get to New York?
    2. What is Daniel's flat like?
    A. It's far away from his office.          
    B. It's quite cheap
    C. It's very big.                      
    D. It's very nice.
    3. What does Daniel NOT tell us?
    A. Whether he has visited New York before.
    B. Where he stayed before he found a flat.
    C. Why he had a party on April Fool's Day.
    D. What his workmates and new neighbours are like.

         Starting a stamp collection is easy and not very expensive. Before you start, you need to decide
    what kind of stamps you want to collect. Most people collect stamps that they are interested in: a
    certain country or an animal, a famous person or even a sport. Whatever you choose, you will find
    that there is a world of knowledge in stamps: you will learn about people, geography, building, history
    and culture.
         You can collect stamps from letters, ask your friends to let you have their old stamps, or you can
    buy used stamps. When you get a letter with a stamp on it, carefully cut out the stamp. Leave lots of
    space around the stamp so that you will not damage it. Put the stamp in water and wait until you can
    safely remove the stamp. Carefully remove the stamp off the letter. Place the wet stamp between two
    clean pieces of paper. A stamp can get wrinkled(褶皱的) when it dries, so put some books on top.
    1. What does the writer think of collecting stamps?
    A. Hard        
    B. Expensive          
    C. Useful          
    D. Boring
    2. What does the underlined work "damage" mean?
    A. 损坏        
    B. 保存              
    C. 利用            
    D. 删除
    3.What's the correct order when we try to get a stamp on a letter?
    ①Remove the stamp off the letter.
    ②Place the wet stamp between two pieces of paper.
    ③Cut out the stamp.
    ④Put the stamp in water.
    ⑤Put some books on top.
    A. ①→②→⑤→③→④                  
    B. ③→④→①→②→⑤
    C. ④→①→②→⑤→③                  
    D. ③→①→④→②→⑤

    salad.
         At ten past eight he laid the table. Then he put some bread, the chicken soup and the salad on it.

         Some people believe that your nationality can influence your personality. This is why you might
    hear someone saying "She is a typical (典型的) Australian" or "He is so French". It seems that people
    from a certain country share certain similar characteristics.
         French
         French people are often seen as romantic and outgoing people with a great love for life, food and
    wine. They are good at singing and dancing.
         Chinese
        Chinese are friendly people who are hard-working. They are polite because they are careful about
    "saving face" when dealing with other people.
         Australians
         Australians are merry people who spend a lot of time outdoors. They enjoy a slower life. They laugh
    a lot but sometimes people think they are loud and rude.
         Germans
         Germans are often described as being serious and careful. They are hard workers and pay a lot of
    attention to details. However, sometimes people say Germans have no sense of humour.
         All these national types can be true for some people, but very wrong for others. For example, you
    might meet a German who is a confident singer with a great sense of humour, or an Australian who is
    shy and quiet.!
