Text B
This morning, I got up early, had a quick breakfast and hurried to the bus station. The No. 36 bus was slow and crowded as usual. I found a seat and sat down. The bus trip usually takes about 40 minutes, so I tried to recite the English words with my eyes closed. There was an English test in the morning and I wanted to get good grades. But soon I fell asleep! When I woke up, the bus had already passed my school! So I had to get off and took a taxi back to our school. As a result, I was 10 minutes late for the maths class and our teacher Miss Green was angry with me. But luckily, I got good grades in my English test though it was difficult, so I should say I had a bad morning but a lucky day!
IV. Listen to a passage, then fill in the blanks with the right words.

When the New Year comes, our family like to work together to make the New Year’s resolutions and write them down on the paper. Here are our plans for 2016. My father is really busy doing the research on robots these days. He plans to make robots more like humans. My mother teaches math in a middle school. She didn’t take enough exercise in 2015. She thinks it’s not good for her health. So her new year’s resolution is to spend at least 20 minutes on sports every day. My elder brother plans to find a part-time job in a factory to practice what he has learnt in college. He is going to be an engineer and the working experience is really important for his future job. As a middle school student, I am not as busy as other ones, so I decided to take up painting as my new hobby. Some of my classmates do well in it and I admire them so much. I think if I work hard at it, I can be as good as them. Do you think so?
