One day, when I arrived at school, an ice cream truck was parked in the schoolyarD.
Ice
cream men usually drove their trucks to primary schools. I had never thought one ice cream truck
would come to bring ice cream to us older kids. When I went up to the truck, I was quite surprised
to hear the man call out, “Free ice cream!” To make sure of his words, I asked, “I’m sorry, what
did you say?” “Free ice cream. Choose whichever you like.” he said smiling.
After I was certain that the man was just giving away the ice cream, I talked with him for a
long time. He told me that his dream had always been to travel around giving away ice cream, and
that’s what he was now doing. With his mother’s support, he kept doing what he loved even during
hard times. Now, however, some large companies are helping him his plan.
The man said he wanted to encourage people to do exactly what their heart told them to do
with their lives. I kept asking him, “So your dream was just to drive around and give away ice
cream? It seems like a very unusual goal.” “Yes, just meeting people and making them smile,” he
replied.
At that point he handed me my ice cream. I thanked him, but what I got from him was
much more than just an ice cream. It can’t easily be expressed in words. I believe what he was
doing is exactly what great people do all the time: small acts of big love.
（ ）31. From the story we know that the writer was most probably _____ at that time.
A. a middle school student
B. a primary school student
C.
D. a primary school teacher
a middle school teacher
（ ）32. Why did the writer ask the ice cream man what he had said again?
A. Because he was not sure whether what he had heard was true.
B. Because the ice cream truck had never been here.
C. Because the ice cream man said in a low voice.
D. Because his hearing was very poor.
（ ）33. With his mother’s and some large companies’ support, _____.
A.
the man became rich

the man could produce ice cream
C.

D.

Dear Mr. Chen,
I am writing to recommend Tom as the new chairperson of the Students’ Union. He has many
good personal qualities. He is confident, hard-working and organizeD.
Tom is helpful because he often teaches us how to learn English. He is kind and not selfish. He
also pays attention to the details. How careful he is! Simon is very clever, creative and imaginative,
he can come up with many new ideas. His favourite colours are yellow and white, because yellow
is the colour of wisdom and white is the colour of purity. When he feels stressed, white can make
him calm.
I hope you will agree with me.
Yours sincerely

When you’re busy or stressed, don’t forget your hobbies, such as listening to music, reading and
playing ball games. If eating makes you feel better, you can go to your favourite restaurant to have
a delicious meal.
Parents may not think that it is useful to watch TV. However, if you are worried about
your English and don’t know how to improve it, why not watch some English TV programmes? If
you’re feeling bad about your weight and don’t know what to do, why not go walking or jogging?
Finally, trying to keep your worries to yourself can make them worse. I like to share my problems
with my friends. They always give me useful advice. If you don’t know who to talk to, you can
always write to me. You’re never alone.
