The friendship slowly loses its importance and finally 39.Tommy wrote, “I didn't even know the friendship was over until I caught myself thinking of Alan as a former friend.”Peter explained, “We 40 seeing each other less and less. The friendship was just over.”Sometimes friendships 41 suddenly from a disagreement or move to another place.Alice said, “The end of our friendship was a gradual thing. I moved from one side of the city to the other. Since then we 42 made a phone call. We met less and less. At last our friendship ended.”Jack said, “When I moved to Seattle after college, our friendship died. Both of us were always 43 with new jobs, so we didn't keep 44 touch with each other.

It can be used in every field, such as on some signs and restaurant menus. But there are some problems when people use it. Perhaps you've seen the English letters “WC” in your city. They show public toilets. But do you know it is far from native(地道的) English? In fact, foreigners from English-speaking countries seldom use the letters.Workers in our city are changing “WC” signs all over the city. The government is spending much money changing all the bad English on signs and restaurant menus. Many other places in China are following our steps.“WC is old-fashioned English. It sounds dirty to me,” says Nancy, a young woman from the US. The old sign will become “Gents/Men” and “Ladies/Women”. “I see much poor English in everyday life, and not only on signs,” she says, “I know what they mean, but they are Chinglish, not real English. For example, when someone says to me “My hometown is Guizhou Province”, I know he or she should say “My hometown is in Guizhou Province”. Hometown is a smaller place in a province. The common mistakes that Nancy picked up include “Not Entry”, which should be “No Entry”, “Direction of Airport”, which should be changed to “To the Airport”. And it is “Room Rate”, not “Room Price”. And remember to “Keep off the Grass” rather than “Care of the Green”.The next time you walk on the street or eat in the restaurant, you can go and see if the expressions are right.51. Who seldom uses letters of “WC” according to the passage?A. Chinese students.B. Foreigners from Japan.C. Teachers in China.D. English-speaking foreigners.52. What's the attitude(态度)of the government towards the bad English on signs?A. It's native.B. It should be changed.C. It doesn't matter.D. It can be used on signs.53. When Nancy sees much poor English in everyday life, ________.A. she thinks it should be correctedB. she thinks it is importantC. she thinks it is properD. she likes to use it54. Which of the following signs is RIGHT?A. Not EntryB. Room PriceC. To the AirportD. Care of the Green55. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Chinglish on menus.B. Money spent on Chinglish.C. Usages of native English.D. Letters of “WC”.BFROM THE EDITORDEAR READERS,Happy birthday to us! TIME magazine's first issue (期刊) came out on March 3, 1923. Sure, the 96th birthday isn't the most special birthday, comparing with the 100th birthday. But we take every opportunity (机会) to celebrate. TIME for Kids came along just a little bit later, in 1995. Soon, we will have our 25th birthday!We have run our Kid Reporter program for many years. Many kids who took part in the program as a reporter are professional journalists (职业记者) now. While they were working with TFK, they caught some great opportunities, like interviewing political leaders, famous people, Olympic athletes, scientists, and more.Do you dream of being a reporter? Come and join us! On March 15, we will hold our annual (一年一度的) competition to find our next group of reporters for Time for Kids.

When I am free, I will spend time on my hobbies. When I am in a blue mood(情绪低落), I will also do my hobbies to cheer myself up.Hobbies can help us improve our moods. Many hobbies require you to put your heart in them. For example, when you play a musical instrument, you have to practice over and over in order to perform(表演)good music. After a period( 一段时期)if you still enjoy it, gradually( 逐渐地)it will become a hobby of yours. But remember, a hobby is like gold under the ground; no hobby will come to you unless you dig it out yourself. If you can treat study as one of your hobbies, learning will be more enjoyable.
