Tenyson suggested that we should buy the lady a flower. “It will make her feel better,” he said. I was amazed that hed come up withthis sweet idea.

As we walked up to her, my son became intimidated by all the blood and medical equipment. He said he was just too scared to go up to her. Instead I gave the flower to the womans husband and told him, “My son was very upset for your wife and wanted to give her this flower to make her feel better.” At that, the old man started crying and said, “Thank you so much, you have a wonderful son.

Among them, some were smokers, some used to smoke, and the rest were non-smokers. Scientists compared their genes and found that more than 7,000 genes of smokers had changed-a number that is one-third of known human genes.According to NBC News, both heart disease and cancer are caused by genetic changes. Some people may have had the changes when they were born, but most people get them in their day-to-day lives while doing things like smoking.When you stop smoking, a lot of these genes will return to normal within five years. This means your body is trying to heal (治愈) itself of the harmful effects of smoking. But the changes in some of the genes stay for longer. They can stay for as long as 30 years, Its almost like leaving a footprint on wet cement (水泥) -it will always be there, even when youve walked away and when the cement becomes dry.Although the study results may make people unhappy, there is a bright side: the findings could help scientists invent medicine to treat genetic damage caused by smoking or find ways to tell which people have heart disease or cancer risks.12.

Maybe not, but you can learn to make the most of your high school days. 16 Whether its having a computer, having friends, having a good supply of food, a bed to sleep on, family that loves you or simply being born in this world. Remember that the point of life is for you to enjoy it. Be happy, and life will reward you. Remember that these are the last few years you will be able to enjoy yourself without having to worry about the responsibility(责任) of an adult.Choose your friends wisely. Unlike what many articles state, you dont have to be popular and have lots of friends to be happy. 17 Try to have friends that like you who you are, not just because you are wearing a certain brand of shoes or something like that. These are people who shop at the same store as you; not someone who will sympathize(同情，安慰) with you when your dog dies. 18 . Having a healthy body leads to a healthy and happy mind. Being confident in your appearance makes you more confident in other areas. Be sociable. 19 While you only need 4 or 5 close friends, that doesnt mean you shouldnt try to meet new people. Participating gives you something to do instead of sitting bored at home and wallowing in self-pity. 20 ! If you have a special girl/guy you want to ask out, dance with, etc. just ask! You probably wont be rejected（拒绝）but if you are, remember that there will always be someone else that likes you for who you are. Dont go to sleep that night with regret.A. Go for it.B. Keep your grades up. C. Play a sport or work out.D. Learn to appreciate small things.E. If you are not good at sports, join a band or choir.F.

Joining in clubs, activities and sport increases your chances of meeting new friends.第二部分：英语知识运用（满分30分） 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Once there was a family of squirrels（松鼠）who lived in a large oak tree（橡树）.They had lived there for manygenerations and it gave them all that they needed to 21 , so they never left its branches.
