7．閱讀下面短文，然后按要求寫一篇150詞左右的英語短文．
An increasing number of students fall in love at an early age and create problems with their studies，which has aroused the school's attention．A middle school has set a"distance for civilized communication"between boy and girl students．Boys and girls should keep a distance of at least 50 centimeters when they talk in public，otherwise they will be criticized or get an even severer punishment，says an article in Beijing News．
It seems that the school has passed the school regulation to prevent girls and boys from falling in love at an early age and creating problems for the school authorities．Some teachers and parents approve of the regulation because it is of vital importance to the teenagers'study．However，many experts say the problem，if it is one，can be better solved through communication．
It is natural for a teenager to have a feeling of love on someone from the opposite sex．It is natural for girls and boys to be attracted to each other as they mature sexually．
In fact，normal communication between boy and girl students is good not only for their emotional development and personality refinement，but also for their relationship when they grow up．
[寫作內(nèi)容]

2．以約120個詞描述"文明交往距離規(guī)定"的利弊，并談?wù)勀銓Ξ愋越煌目捶ǎ?br />[寫作要求]
1．作文中可以參照閱讀材料的內(nèi)容，但不得直接引用原文中的句子．
2．作文中不能出現(xiàn)真實姓名和學(xué)校名稱．
From the article，we know a school has set a regulation about civilized communication between boys and girls to prevent students falling in love at an early age，which has caused different opinions．
In our daily school life some students can't resist the opposite gender's attraction，disturbing themselves．With such a school rule carried out，it's of great help for them to take control of themselves and realize the harm of abnormal communication．Meanwhile，however，it's not good for the students'emotional development and normal relationship．
Personally，I hold a right attitude towards communication with the opposite gender．I'll get on well with my classmates no matter whether they are boys or girls，but keeping a certain personal distance is extremely necessary．It's of great importance for me to bury myself in my school work before I regret only because of my puppy（early）love．．

4．Military Grade Flashlight Available to Public
It seems like every day you turn on the news the world's about to end．Lately，Americans have had enough，and are searching for better ways to protect themselves and their families against rising crime．
Their solution？Military grade tactical flashlights．
Powerful technology used by law enforcement to blind and disorient bad guys，Americans are now gearing up and buying their own．
The G700Tactical Flashlight is currently the most popular tactical flashlight of choice for most American's due to its powerfully disorienting"strobe mode"that allows the user to flash a blinding light into the attackers eyes，leaving them"disoriented beyond belief．"
How effective are tactical flashlights，really？
If you've ever had someone take a picture of you at night with the flash on，you'll know how it takes a minute or two for your eyes to re-adjust．Now imagine that flash is 100x brighter and is strobing directly into your eyes．You wouldn't be able to see a thing，and would most likely lose your sense of balance．
That's what you get with a tactical flashlight like the G700Tactical Flashlight．The strobe feature is designed to ruin an attacker's eye sight，so they can't see what they're doing，letting you safely run away-or if need be，gain the advantage and attack them．
The truth is，most people underestimate the importance of owning a tactical flashlight．Whether you're walking alone at night，driving somewhere and break down，or just want a light bright enough to prevent animals while you're camping，tactical flashlights are so bright that they give you the advantage．
Not to mention if you're in an emergency situation，what better way to call attention to yourself than with a powerful G700Tactical Flashlight that can be seen for up to 2miles away．
These 200lights are currently selling for 75% off their normal price!So it's a good time to get them at a discounted price．If you want to make sure you and your loved ones are always prepared for the worst，this flashlight is a great start．It has our vote so much that we made sure everyone on our staff had at least 4．
Obtain even more information concerning G700 Military Grade Flashlight at：http://tacticalmilitaryflashlight．com
60．The G700Tactical Flashlight helps youA．
A．protect yourself against crime
B．blind and attack bad guys
C．walk alone at night freely
D．protect animals while camping
61．The underlined phrase"disoriented beyond belief"in para.4probably meansB．
A．disappointed
B．dizzy
C．unconfident
D．a(chǎn)nnoyed
62．This advertisement is made more persuasive mainly byB．
A．using recommendations
B．providing reasons
C．offering statistics
D．making comparisons．

11．Four Steps to Begin Your Path to Greatness
Feeling stuck is quite common．Many times，we have thoughts and dreams of what we want in life．（36）F Our thinking pattern holds us back from going forward．The good news is，at any moment in time，we have the ability to start taking action toward creating the life we want．Here are four steps to get started：
Celebrate Your Success．
Write down all the successes you've already achieved and all the awesomeness that you are today．（37）E  And once you're in that positive routine with your thoughts，it will lead you to make better choices and take better actions toward your greatness．
Create Your True Vision．
Many times we live based on others'expectations or we stay stuck in a particular place because it's our safety zone．Own your path．It can be hard to do，but allow yourself to get out of your head（or stop listening to what others want for you）and focus on your heart and what it's telling you．（38）G
（39）B
If you want to start going to the gym，going 5days a week right away is extreme，and setting yourself up by biting more than you can chew typically doesn't result in success，but failure．Instead，start slow and go once or twice a week．After you do that for a while and get into a nice routine，up it to more days．Over time，you will build toward your goal by taking realistic，smaller steps to get there．
Have the Right Support．
（40）A Find the right support to cheer you on in the process．It could be a friend，a family member，or significant other who you trust．Whoever it may be，having someone on your journey will be just what you need to keep you on track and celebrate with you as you work toward the life you dream of．
A．Don't do it alone．
B．Be realistic about your goals．
C．Be kind to yourself and accept the moment．
D．Your failure can lead you to another success．
E．This practice will direct your thinking to a positive place．
F．Sadly，they only stay as thoughts and dreams inside of us．
G．Look within yourself deeply and decide what you want and what's true for you．
