Dear John,
I'm Li Hua, an exchange student here. As a member of this community, I, together with some of my classmates, want to take advantage of this weekend to do some voluntary work for our community.
To begin with, in order to relieve the pressure of our local cleaners, we'd like to help them sweep the streets. We strongly believe that with our joint efforts, our community will take on a totally new look. Besides, we intend to pay a visit to the local orphanage and prepare some toys for them, which will bring great joy to the orphans. We'd appreciate it if you can give us some advice.
Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

Dear Editor-in-chief of Crazy English,
I'm glad to share my opinion about techno-logy and compassion. Personally, technology should not be the ringleader of the decrease of people's compassion although it's tempting to blame technology for its ill effects like preventing us from regular contact. But it's only a tool, and it reshapes human interactions based on what we design and how we use it.
To become a more compassionate person,there're many things we can do for ourselves as well as others. For example, we can begin with self-compassion because it's we who get the pressure of our harshness. We can also cultivate appreciation because compassion is based upon comparison of sorts between what you and another person experience. Last but not the least, we should learn to give back because acts of generosity and thoughtfulness always inspire more of the same, into a chain reaction of goodness.
When you read my article, how I hope we can be more compassionate and warm the world like the sun!
Yours,
Li Hua

Conflicts with others are common in everyday life. During the basketball game yesterday afternoon, Su Hua and Li Jiang bumped into each other, trying to catch the ball. Then they started shouting and yelling, and it turned into a horrible quarrel.
To be honest, it was Su's fault but Li was also to blame—they were not calm enough and both said some really mean words. They cared too much about winning and losing. As a matter of fact, blocking, pushing and bumping are just part of a tough game.
To avoid such conflicts, we should be kind to others, which is essential to enjoying a harmonious life. It is also a virtue to forgive and forget, especially in such a competitive and stressful society. Instead of blaming each other, we should communicate more and put ourselves in others' place.
Don't be self-centered and try to be considerate. We must learn to handle conflicts calmly and wisely.

Dear fellow students,
It's my great honor to be here to give a speech about relationships between parents and chidren. The relationship between my father and me is what I will share with you.
As a saying goes, the love of father is like a mountain. But frankly, the relationship between my father and me doesn't seem so satisfying. Since he is always occupied with his work, hardly do we have time to communicate with each other. When weekends come, he will go out with his friends instead of accompanying me and mom. If only we could join in some activities together!
From my perspective, most importantly, fathers and children should communicate more with each other. Besides, they should have more interactions, like participating in more activities together. Only in this way can they understand each other.
That's all. Thank you.

1. A 声响太大了以至于Languell认为(assumed)这个声响来自屋内。
2. D 听到异响,人的本能是去查看(investigate),Languell也想去查看一下声响的来源。
3. C 由下文Languell往窗外看可知,他确定(definitely)这个巨响来自室外而非屋内。

10. A 车身变形,他的脸被挤压在窗户玻璃上,非常痛苦(pain)。
11. D 由后面提到的车子起火可知,Languell试图用那桶水熄火的措施是不成功的(success)。

Task 4
一、语法填空
团队是一个共同体,有共同理想和目标。在团队发展过程中,形成主动、高效、合作且有创意的团体,能够解决问题,从而达到共同的目标。
1. but 考查连词。分析语境可知,空前与空后是转折关系,故用表转折的并列连词but。
2. hated 考查動词时态。根据前半句中的动词短语used to可知,此处应该用一般过去时态,故用hated。
3. experts 考查名词。根据该空前的subject可知,此处指的学科专家,应该不止一名,故填名词复数形式。
4. working 考查非谓语动词。When it comes to...意思是“一谈到……;就……而论”,其中to是介词,故用动词的-ing形式。
5. were announced 考查时态和被动语态。根据句尾的时间状语that year可知用一般过去时态,再根据语境,这里指作者他们被宣告,表示被动,故填一般过去时的被动语态。
6. that 考查同位语从句的引导词。分析句子结构可知,所填词引导同位语从句,解释说明lesson的具体内容,从句中不缺少成分且句子完整,故用that引导。
7. their 考查代词。根据该空后的名词短语individual aspirations可知,此处指“他们的”个人抱负,故填形容词性物主代词。
8. a 考查冠词。根据该空后的单数可数名词goal可知,此处指的是“一个”共同的目标,故填不定冠词a,表泛指。
9. exactly 考查副词。分析句子结构可知,该空修饰系动词is,故填副词exactly。
10. to help 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,此处为动词不定式作目的状语,故填to help。
二、书面表达
Dear Jenny,
How are you getting along with your study these months? Now, there is a good chance for you. Our school is planning to hold a Chinese composition competition for middle school students from around the world, whose theme is “China in My Eyes”. Knowing that you are so fond of and good at Chinese, I strongly recommend you join in it and get good results.
As the competition is to be held on Dec. 27, 2020, your writing should be sent to chinesecomposition@bjschool.com before Dec. 20, 2020. Most importantly, it's necessary that you describe the impression that China has on you in detail. Wish you good luck!
Looking forward to receiving your reply as soon as possible.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
