Read the article and select the best answer. Article: Not all memories are sweet. Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. Wars and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and mental _ Often they appear again in dreams. Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill , which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce , or possibly erase the effect of sad memories. In November, some scientists tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body producing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the mental effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased. The research has caused plenty of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it. Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers' troubling memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories. "Some memories can destroy people's lives. They come back to you when you don't want to have them in a dream. They usually come with very sad feeling." said Roger Pitman, a scientist of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. "This could relieve a lot of that suffering." But those who are against the research say that it is very dangerous to change memories because memories give us our identity . They also help us all get away from the mistakes of the past. "All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were terrible at the time but make us who we are. I'm not sure we want to erase those memories," said Rebecca Dresser. Question: Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with? Options: A: Some memories can destroy people's lives. B: People want to get away from bad memories. C: Experiencing bad events makes us different from others. D: The pill will reduce people's sufferings from bad memories.

Ques: Read the article and select the best answer. Article: Dear Mrs. Smith, I was a student of yours in Grade Six, and I hope you still remember me. I'm writing this letter because I want to let you know that the school year with you was important and special to me. It made a great contribution to my life. I know I was very quiet in your class, and you never said much to me. But you did something that made a big difference in my life. You see, all through my first years in schools. I hated to read. Books were just words that had very little to do with me, and I was bored by them. I'll never forget the first day of Grade Six when you took out a thick book and began to read the story to our class. Your voice seemed to change with the people in the story, and you drew pictures in my mind as you read aloud. Since that day, I couldn't wait until after lunch when you would read to the class. You read us all kinds of wonderful books. During the summer after my year in your class, I missed hearing the stories you would read. So one day I picked up a book and read it all on my own. I found out that I could make the words interesting, too. Now, I love to read! Thank you for opening the world of books for me. Yours, Linda Question: This letter is about a girl saying " _ " to a teacher. Options: A: Happy Teachers' Day B: Thank you C: Goodbye D: Sorry

Ques: Read the article and select the best answer. Article: Perhaps you've seen the English letters "WC" in your city. They show public toilets. But do you know it is far from elegant English? In fact, foreigners from English-speaking countries rarely use the letters. Workers in our city are changing "WC" signs all over the city. The government is spending much money changing all the bad English on signs and restaurant menus. Many other places in China are following our steps. "WC, or water closet, is old-fashioned English. It sounds dirty to me," says Charlie Shifflet, a young man from the US. The old sign will become "Gents/Men" and "Ladies/Women". "I see lots of poor English in everyday life, and not only on signs," he says. "I know what they mean. But they are Chinglish , not real English. For example, when someone says to me 'My hometown is Henan Province', I know he should say: 'My hometown is in Henan Province'. 'Hometown' is a smaller place in a province." The common mistakes he picked up include "Not Entry", which should be "No Entry", "Direction of Airport" should be changed to "To the Airport". And it is "room rate", not "room price". And remember to "Keep off the grass", rather than "Care of the green". Question: Charlie Shifflet _ . Options: A: is a Chinese living in America B: thinks Chinese people are sometimes using incorrect English C: likes to hear or see Chinglish D: sometimes uses Chinglish
