22、In the early days, many people in San Francisco came from China. Some worked as labours(劳工)in the gold fields, and others on railroads. They were poor people when they first came to America. They worked very hard to save money. When the Chinese could afford to, they built houses much like their homes in China. Some opened stores to sell products from China to other Chinese. Others opened restaurants to serve Chinese foods. These people enjoyed the things they were used to having in their homeland.

Today, Grand Avenue is the main street to the very large Chinese-American community called Chinatown. Children who live in this area go to the San Francisco City School. Some also go to Chinese language schools to learn how to read and write Chinese.

People from different places enjoy visiting Chinatown. They may buy beautiful carvings or silks in the Chinese shops. They like to eat the different foods served in the Chinese restaurants.

Visitors to Chinatown also enjoy hearing the sounds of China. The music seems strange because it sounds so different from American music.

The best time to visit Chinatown is during the Chinese New Year, usually in February. A big procession(游行队伍)to celebrate the New Year which is led by a huge dragon made from paper and silk is the most impressive show for visitors.

23、The police find most criminals (罪犯) because somebody tells them who the criminals are. They find other criminals by using science and their computers. When there is a bank robbery (抢劫), the police first look through their computers for the names of the bank robbers that they know about. Then they go and talk to any of these robbers who are not in prison (监狱). They ask them where they were when the robbery happened. If any of these people cannot give a good answer, the police will often use science to find out if one of them is the robber.

Many criminals leave something of themselves at the places of the crimes like a fingerprint or a hair. Or they take something away on their shoes or clothes, like dirt or animal hair. If they leave behind some of their blood or their hair or a piece of skin, it will have their DNA inside it.

Everyone’s DNA is different and their fingerprints are also different. So, if a criminal cuts himself during a robbery or leaves his hair, or even a small piece of skin, scientists can find out what his DNA is. The police can then ask the person they think is the robber to give them his hair or some blood and see if it has the same DNA. Many criminals are in prison today because of this kind of evidences .

根据上文内容判断正 ( T ) 误( F )

【1】【1】Usually the police find criminals because they use their computer.

【2】【2】The police do not usually ask criminals who are in prison about a crime because these criminals could not have done it.

【3】【3】The most useful evidences that criminals leave at the places of their crimes are things with their DNA in them.

【4】【4】Many criminals usually take something away only on their shoes after the crimes.

【5】【5】The story is about a bank robbery.

25、Dear Kate,

It is very exciting that you are coming to our school so soon. Before you arrive, let me introduce to you what our school life is like.

Our school is a good place where we can prepare ourselves well for the future. We have many teachers who are always ready to offer help. Though we pay a lot of attention to how well we do in lessons, getting high scores (分数) is not the only r【1】 to study. The teachers encourage us to try out new ideas and ask questions in class. With their help we have d【2】 all kinds of interests in both Arts and Science. Students can choose to join any school clubs they are interested in. We can choose the s【3】 that we want to study. Last term I chose American Literature, because I wanted to learn about famous American writers. This term I chose m【4】 classes because my father bought me a piano as a birthday present.

By the way, I was elected monitor of my class. Sometimes it can be tiring to be a monitor, because I have to do a lot of work and a【5】 many meetings. However, being a monitor has taught me a lot, such as caring for others and taking responsibilities and so on. When my class was given the title of “Model Class”, I was p【6】 than ever before. So being a monitor an important part in my school life. I’m very pleased with my work.

I love my school and hope that you will have a unforgettable e【7】 here too. I am looking forward to seeing you soon.

Yours,

Li Ping
