Going to a friend’s house is very exciting. You may spend time with a friend and get to see where he or she lives. So remember to be polite.
The first thing to remember is that when a friend invites you over, you need to arrive on time. If your friend tells you to come “around 3:00”, that means you can arrive a little bit after 3:00.But usually it is a good idea to arrive at the right time.
Often it is also nice to bring something to your friend’s house. This could be a box of chocolates for you to share, or maybe a CD that you can enjoy together. You can also bring some flowers. A little gift is a nice way to show your friend that you are excited to be at his or her house.
When you visit your friend’s house, you may also meet his or her parents. You should tell them who you are and they may tell you their names. As a child, I went to visit my friend Paul. I called his parents by their first names John and Mary, But now I know it is more polite to call them Mr. and Mrs. Smith. This will show them more respect（尊重）and then they may tell you to call them by their first names. Another way to show respect is to call them madam or sir.
It is a cool thing to visit a friend’s house. Be polite to your friend and your friend’s parents, and you will be invited again.

You may not like it, but learning English is necessary if you want to succeed abroad. Not just that, you have to show your knowledge of the English language on one of the two major English proficiency (水平) examinations: the IELTS (雅思) or the TOEFL (托福).
Which test you should take depends on your goal. The TOEFL remains the top exam in the US. But the IELTS is popular in the US but it is already the liked better test in the UK and Australia.
There are also differences in the examinations themselves. They both measure (测试) the four main language requirements: speaking, reading, writing and listening. However, the exams are very different in their form and methodology (方法).
“Compared with the TOEFL, the IELTS test requires you to actually have a grasp (掌握) of the language and an ability to use it, rather than simply being well prepared for the test,” explains IELTS examiner Julian Fisher.
The key reasons for this are that the IELTS exam requires fill-in answers as opposed to (相对于) multiple choice (选择题), and its speaking section is done with a real examiner instead of a computer. The examinee is given a topic related to daily life.
“The face-to-face interview with a trained speaker of English allows for communicative interaction (交流互动), which reflects (反应) real academic (学术的) and workplace situations,” said senior exam marketing officer Pang Shuai. What scores do I need
For the IELTS, a band score of 5 to 7 is fine for the majority of undergraduate and post-graduate programs. For top schools, you will probably need at least a 7.
When it comes to the TOEFL, there is a range (范围). It all depends on the colleges. Mediocre (普通的) schools will let you get by with a score as low as 60. For a top-tier university, on the other hand, you will need to score upwards of 100 points on your TOEFL.
27．What does Paragraph 2 suggest
A．In the US, the TOEFL score is not as important as it once was.
B．IELTS is more widely accepted than TOEFL by US schools.
C．The TOEFL score is liked better in Australian universities.
D．Universities in the UK mainly see students’ IELTS scores.
28．Which of the following is a difference between the TOEFL and the IELTS
A．The TOEFL checks four English skills, while IELTS doesn’t.
B．The IELTS tests focus more on test-taking skills.
C．There are no fill-in answers in the TOEFL tests.
D．The IELTS interview s test-takers on the computer.
29．What does Pang Shuai think of the face-to-face interview
A．More exams should take this exam form.
B．It is a useful skill in one’s studies and at work.
C．This exam form can make test-takers more relaxed.
D．A test-taker can score high simply by preparing well.
30．If you want to go to a top university in the UK or US, ________.
A．a 7 on the IELTS is probably a must
B．a score of 60 on the TOEFL is enough
C．you should take both the TOEFL and IELTS
D．you need a 7.5 on the IELTS for post-graduate programs
D
He was the only gray cub (灰色幼崽) of the she-wolf. The other cubs had red in their hair. He was gray like his father. He was the strongest cub. He showed more anger than his brothers and sisters. He made more noise.
His father and mother live mainly upon meat. In his first month of life, he lives on mother’s milk. And now, at a month old, when his eyes had been open for about a week, he began to eat meat himself.
There came a time when there was no meat. For many days the cubs did not eat. They were too weak and tired to play. One-Eye, the cub’s father, was killed in the fight over food. Even the she-wolf left home to find meat. But there was nothing. One by one, the cubs died. Only the she-wolf and gray cub were left.
One day the gray cub ran out to hunt for his own food. He met a weasel (鼬) of his size. The rat-like animal ran at him and bit his throat (喉咙). He was nearly dead when the she-wolf arrived just in time to kill and eat the weasel.
The gray cub was not good at hunting yet, and still needed food from his mother. One day, the she-wolf brought him a lynx kitten (小山猫). While eating, he heard great noise. The kitten’s mother had followed the she-wolf here. The she-wolf and the she-lynx started to fight, and they would fight to the death. The gray cub ran forward and bit one of her legs. This was enough to give the she-wolf the time she needed. The lynx was dead, but the she-wolf was badly hurt. For about a week, she didn’t move. The gray cub had to find food for both of them.
Without his mother to take care of him, he learnt what life was about. Without meat there was no life. Animals had to eat other animals to live. The law was: EAT OR BE EATEN.
—Taken from White Fang
