阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项A、B、C、D中，选出最佳选项
Probably my best friend is one of my schoolmates, whose name is
Marcela and we have known each other since we were 8 years old.
Marcela looks very pretty, with short brown hair, brown eyes, and a
small nose. She is not very tall but not short either. She always
wears jeans and a T-shirt or sweater.
It seems that she and I are always talking or laughing about
something. She has a wonderful sense of humor(幽默) and I always get
the best advice from her. Since I am better in math and science and
she is better in English and some other languages, we can always
help each other in our study.
Marcela and I have many of the same hobbies. We both enjoy music,
playing the guitar and singing. We like going to Glory Days but
sometimes can’t agree on which movies to see. Sometimes we just
walk around, trying to find a new area of the city to explore. We
both like traveling, reading, and swimming.
Sometimes during the summer, I go with her and her family to their
summer house which is next to a large lake. We usually spend most
of the day swimming or exploring the area but sometimes we take a
small boat and go fishing. In the evening, we might walk into town
and see a movie or stay at home and watch TV. Whatever we’re doing,
it’s always fun to be with her. Even when our lives get busy, we
still make time to see each other. We feel so glad that we get
along so well with each other. I hope that our friendship will
continue and still be so strong after we leave high school. We
would like to study at the same university.

Things here in England are pretty different from back home in
Boston. Now I’ve got used to a lot of stuff(东西) here, like

used to（习惯于） being away from home.
The experience here in England are new and interesting. The whole

Many countries follow special customs(风俗)when a child’s baby teeth
fall out. Many of these customers tell stories about animals taking
the teeth.
For example, Koreans have the custom of throwing the fallen tooth
onto the roof of a house so that a magpie(喜鹊) can take the tooth
away and bring a new tooth for the child. This custom is also
followed by some other Asian countries, such as Japan and
Other countries, though, have tooth customs about other animals. In
Mexico and Spain, for example, it is thought that a mouse takes a
fallen tooth away and leaves some money. But in Mongolia, it is
dogs that take children’s teeth away. Dogs are highly respected in
Mongolian culture. It is believed that the new tooth will grow
strong if the baby tooth is fed to a dog, so parents in Mongolia
will put their children’s fallen teeth in a piece of meat and feed
it to a dog.
In France and the USA, a child will put a fallen tooth under his or
her pillow(枕头)before going to bed. It is thought that in the early
morning , when the child is still sleeping, the Tooth Fairy will
take the tooth away and leave something else under the pillow. What
she will leave is hard to know. It is said that in France the Tooth
Fairy ma however, in the USA, she may leave

pictures of them. But
there were so many snowflakes that he couldn’t draw them all.
How could he keep their beauty forever? Bentley thought of buying a
The boy and his mother asked his father to buy one. But, his father
didn’t agree. He
thought the whole thing was a bad idea. He thought the only thing a
farmer should do
was farming.But finally Bentley did get a camera. For more than a
year he tried to take picturs
of snowflakes. On January 15, 1885, during a snowstorm, Bentley
took the first ever

Corporation is designing a network of underground systems, called
“Alice Cities,” The designers imagine using surface space for pubic
parks and using underground space for flats, offices, shopping, and
so on. A solar dome (太阳能穹顶) would cover the whole city.
&Supporters of underground development say that
building down rather than（而不是） building up is a good way to use the
earth’s space. The surface, they say, can be used for farms, parks,
gardens, and wilderness, H. G. Wells “moon people” would agree.

We have a large and clean house, which lies in a beautiful area of
the city. I’m good at English and my parents are both professors of
English, so I’m sure we won’t have any difficulty communicating
with English speakers. My father is an excellent driver and we will
be very glad to show foreign students around some nearby places of
interest in our own car. Last month we received two American
students. We had a great time. Besides, my mother cooks well, so
the students will be able to enjoy delicious Chinese food. I would
greatly appreciate it if I could have the chance to make friends
with them.
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours sincerely,
