Fu Lei’s Family Letters is a book of letters written by Chinese translator (翻译家) and writer Fu Lei to his elder son Fu Cong, who is a famous pianist. Between 1954 and 1966, Fu Cong spent a lot of time away from home training as a piano player. As a result, writing letters became Fu Lei’s usual way of communicating with his elder son. Fu Min, Fu Lei’s younger son edited (编辑) the letters and the book came out in 1981.
The book shows Fu Lei’s family tradition and value. To Fu Lei, the purpose of education of a person, is to make that person useful to the society.

(In the cave)
Tom and Becky walked on, hoping the paths would go back around and lead them to the staircase (楼梯) again. But as they walked, the children never found themselves back at the staircase. Becky saw a look of confusion (慌乱) showing on Tom’s face, and she felt afraid.
“Tom, we’re lost, aren’t we ” She said.
“I’m so sorry, Becky. I don’t know where we are! And I haven’t been making smoke marks on the wall! I’m so stupid!”
Becky fell to the ground, and started to cry wildly.
Tom tried to ease her thoughts, but there was little he could do to help. “Alright, Becky. Let’s not cry too much now, and waste our energy. We should just keep walking. As long as we walk, there’s hope.”
And so they walked with no idea where they were going. They had lost all sense of time. They did not know if it was night or day. Becky grew weaker and weaker as they went. Tom, after a while, had to put out the candle in order to save it, for he only had one more in his pocket. And so much of the time they walked in total darkness, feeling their way along the walls.
Tom lit the candle again, and made his way down one of the passages. While he was feeling around, his hand suddenly touched another hand. Tom jumped back, held out his candle far in front of him to see who was there. A face then appeared from down below. It was the face of Injun Joe!
Both of them screamed, and then Injun Joe turned and disappeared quickly into the darkness. Tom turned and made his way back to where Becky was sitting. He decided not to tell Becky what he had seen, and just said that he had shouted for luck. But in his mind, he could not stop wondering if Injun Joe would soon return to kill him.

Have you ever read the famous novel Robinson Crusoe (《鲁滨逊漂流记》) Do you know that it was based on a real life story of a Scottish sailor, Alexander Selkirk？
Selkirk was born in Scotland in 1676. As he grew up, he became a sailor (海员). One day, he was asked to fight around South America, while the ship was damaged by the Spanish. He was surprised that the ship would sink, so he tried to land on the next island. The island was Mas a Tierra and it is known as “Robinson Crusoe Island” today.
The island in the Pacific was far away, with nobody around, but Selkirk managed to live there alone for over 4 years. At first, he didn’t realize it would be more than 4 years. He mainly passed the time by reading his Bible (圣经). Though there was nobody else on the island, there were animals, including rats, cats and goats. The rats were such fierce animals that he had to use wild cats to protect himself during the night. During the days on the island, there were at least two ships coming close. Unluckily, they were not friendly and even opened fire on Selkirk, but he escaped successfully.
Finally, on the first of February 1709, when two British ships arrived at the island, Selkirk was rescued. It turned out that his choice was right because no long after his landing on the island, the ship sank. The archaeologists (考古学家) today discovered a campsite of a European on this island and it proved the story true.
35．How old was Selkirk when he was rescued from the island
36．How did Selkirk spend his early days on the island
37．What happened to the ship after Selkirk landed on the island
38．If you are left on an island with nobody around, can you live there for 4 years Why or why not Write 30 words or more.
Reading history books can let us learn from great people in history and live better. A history book that you can’t miss is Historical Records or Shiji.
Historical Records is the first general history of China. Sima Qian, an official (官员) during the Western Han Dynasty (206BC—AD24) wrote it. The 520,000-word work records the events beginning with the famous Yellow Emperor and ending with the first year of the Han Wudi period, covering around 3,000 years.
In this book, I really like how the writer describes different people. For example, there’s Da Yu, the founder of the Xia Dynasty. He tried so hard to stop a big flood (洪水) that he refused to enter his home while passing by three times. His selflessness (无私) really moved me. I also hope to be a great person like Da Yu.
There are also two farmers, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang. They stood up and led a group of people against the Qin Dynasty. Their story shows that every human, whatever their birth, can become something great if he tried his best.
When I read this book, I could see how Sima Qian made the characters come alive with his words. This makes the book full of strong feelings, and I love the stories.

I read a book called Gulliver’s Travels (《格列佛游记》) during the summer holiday. It was quite interesting. The book was written by an English writer named Jonathan Swift.
The hero of the book is Gulliver. He likes travelling and exploring (探险). At the beginning of the story, he is a doctor who works on a big ship. One day, they ran into a big storm at sea and everyone died except for Gulliver. Then, he arrived on an island. Everybody on this island was tiny. Many years later, he arrived on an other island. It was full of giants. He also travelled to many strange places and experienced many strange things.
The most interesting time was when Gulliver travelled to Hooey. The Houyhnhnms who lived there were living things that looked like horses. There was a kind of living thing called a yahoo which looked like a human. The Houyhnhnms enslaved (奴役) the yahoos just like humans enslave horses. Houyhnhnms are beautiful, while yahoos are stupid and ugly.
The book is a fairytale. It teaches us not to be mean, but to be kind and honest. Would you like to read it I think you might enjoy it.

五、阅读短文，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或用括号内所给词的正确形式填空，使短文通顺、连贯。
When talking about Chinese literature, Journey to the West is often at the top of people’s lives. It is a classic novel 53 (write) in the sixteenth century by Wu Cheng’en (about 1500—1583). It is one of 54 (well-known) Chinese literary works in the west.
Journey to the West’s popularity has made it an inspiration for many Western works—and not just in the world of literature. Fred Ho, a musician, wrote 55 opera called Journey Beyond the West: The New Adventures of Monkey. The opera, which includes kung Fu performances and other Chinese elements (元素), borrows directly 56 Journey to the West.
Characters from Journey to the West have also 57 (appear) in many Western video games, including Over watch, War frame and League of Legends. And 58 (recent) in 2017, Netflix hosted a South Korean show called A Korean Odyssey that is a comedic retelling of the past Journey story.
But why has Journey to the West lasted not just for one year or ten years, but for 59 (century)
James Trapp, a writer for the British Council, suggests that Sun Wukong, known to most Western readers 60 the Monkey King, is the reason for the novel’s lasting popularity. “In many ways, the Monkey King is the archetype of the folk hero, or in modern terms, the superhero,” Trapp wrote. In these ways, the Monkey King is similar to Western folk heroes such as Huckleberry Finn. However, he has been around for much 61 (long) than many of these heroes.
The story itself is similar to that of the Western classic Odyssey, a Greek poem about a 62 (hero) journey of self-discovery and victory. Its similarity to famous Western stories has made Journey to the West popular among Western readers for hundreds of years.
