Former students and teachers come back to the school to enjoy the memories of their time there and the many Homecoming activities.

High schools usually choose one boy and one girl from the senior class to be the “Homecoming King” and “Homecoming Queen”. The students usually choose a boy and a girl who have done a lot for the school.
Most schools have a Homecoming parade(游行). The school band will often lead the way, followed by many different cars and trucks.

Last July, my parents and I went to visit my aunt and uncle in Seattle, a city on the northwest American coast. Dad did some research and had no difficulty in finding us cheap tickets online.
On the day of our flight, we had to wake up very early. When we checked our bags in, we found that one bag weighed too much, so we had to pay a fine. After that, Dad insisted that we go and have some breakfast at the airport restaurant. We had a lot of fun watching many different people there. Then we realized it was getting late, so we rushed to the gate. It took one hour for everyone to get on the plane, but finally the door was shut and we were on our way!
I think my favorite experience during our trip was our visit to Mount Rainier, a volcano near Seattle. It was nothing like I had expected. Before we left, my aunt lent us hats to protect us from getting sunburned, so I supposed that it would be very hot. Imagine my surprise when we drove up the mountain and I discovered the top was covered in snow and ice!
My uncle led us to a small path beyond the main trails to increase our chances of seeing wildlife. We walked over a small hill, and suddenly before us there appeared a field of snow. Small wild flowers grew up through the snow; underneath the snow we could hear rushing water ― a small stream. Little animals stood still to avoid being noticed; tiny birds rose into the air. It was the most beautiful sight that I’d ever seen.
66. What ticket did the father buy for the family?
A. Bus.B. Ship.C. Train.D. Airplane.
67. Why did they pay a fine?
A. Because they got up late.B. Because they didn’t wait in line.
C. Because they came to the airport late.D. Because their bag was overweight.
68. What was the writer’s most impressive experience?
A. The flight to Seattle.B. The breakfast in the airport.
C. The visit to Mount Rainier.D. The discovery of a small stream.
69. Why did they choose a small path instead of the main trails?
A. To enjoy more of the wildlife.B. To take a shortcut to save time.
C. To avoid the snowy road.D. To avoid being attacked by animals.
70. Which of the following is NOT true according to the article?
A. Seattle is on the northwest coast of America.
B. They bought their tickets in a booking office.
C. They waited for a long time before getting on the plane.
D. The hats were to help protect them from getting sunburned.

Gaining lasting happiness has long been a subject of interest for scientists and surveys alike. But what makes us really happy and what lasting benefits does happiness have?
Scientists from the University of Illinois found the people who are happy and positive about life live longer. The researchers found “clear evidence” that happiness is key when it comes to better health and longer lifespan(寿命).
A British study, which tracked members of 40,000 households across the country, concluded that eating a family meal at least three times a week is the key to happiness because it helps build a strong connection between parents and their children.
Research has also suggested that happiness begins at 50. A study from Stony Brook University, New York, found that stress, anger and worry fade（消退） after your 50th. Women were also reported to suffer greater stress, worry and sadness at all ages.
Money makes the world go round, but it is not the key to happiness, according to other studies. However, other studies have found money can __________ after all, but only if you spend it wisely. Indeed, that might be why a good holiday can improve your happiness levels “for up to two months” after―although the break has to be “very relaxing” to have such an effect.

Dear editor，
I’m writing to tell you about the discussion we recently had about whether it is good or not for families to own cars.
With the development of people’s living conditions，more and more people have their own cars. Some of us think it good to own a car. Firstly，it’s a convenient，fast and comfortable means of transportation tool. You can go to a lot of places at any time. Secondly，it shows that people are becoming richer，and the country stronger. It also makes businesses and industries develop faster. Others have different opinions. They think that cars give off waste gas and pollute the environment. Too many cars will have some bad effects，such as more accidents. Besides，parking cars is another big problem. Maybe people should think carefully before they buy a car.
Yours truly，
