1、 The other day Roy Price went "home" to his sister's house. It's her home now, but it's also the house he was born in. Pat, his sister kissed him and said, "You haven't changed much, Roy. ___自从上次见面后,我们有很多年没见了。Let me see now. When did we meet last?"
"Twenty-five years ago," he answered. "I was here for a week. Do you remember?" He added.___"You haven't changed much, either." It was polite for Roy to say so, but it wasn't true. Pat seemed almost an old lady.
___The next morning, Roy walked through the village alone. The place looked very different. There were lots of traffic signs on that roads and beside the roads, there was a new car park, a new post office and a new bus stop. He remembered suddenly that the bus used to stop anywhere-you just put up your hand and it stopped. One surprise followed another. The railway station was gone! The school was gone. A lot of farm machinery stood in the playground!
___But Roy's biggest surprise was the people. He didn't recognize anybody at all, perhaps because everyone seemed old. He went into the post office and bought some stamps. "Where are all the children and young people?" he asked the postmaster.
The old fellow looked up from his book of stamps. "Children?" he said, "They are in school, of course. There are three or four young families here. The children go to school by bus-to Horham."
At lunch Pat said, "The village looks nice, doesn't it?"
"It's all different, Pat. It used to be an exciting place. ___但是现在村子里满是老年人。I don't understand..."
"There are few newcomers, but the ones we knew are still here. You're also not young, Roy, are you?"

You may have heard of people who are allergic(过敏)to seafood, smoke or pets.But did you know that some people were allergic to Wi-Fi signals?
Rachel Honks, a 44-year-old woman from Britain, first found herself being allergic to Wi-Fi signals in 2015. She had a cough, heart trouble and great pains in her head when she stayed at the places covered with Wi-Fi signals.
Rachel has tried many ways to keep away from Wi-Fi signals. In the past six months, she either slept in her car or in tent which she had put up in woodland or in the fields. She has even tried sleeping in a shed(棚). Being completely tired, Rachel had no choice but to quit her job and moved 370 kilometers away from her home to escape Wi-Fi signals, but failed. Because of the hard life, she got a stomach problem.
She is now living in a small house in rural(乡下的)Wales. There are far fewer Wi-Fi signals. However, the house, which belongs to one of her friends, will be sold to others, so she has to move again soon.
Rachel is planning to move to a more rural area. She is also planning to buy a camper van(野营车)so that she can drive away from Wi-Fi signals whenever she is feeling uncomfortable. As she has no job and therefore no income, she has to raise money online. She is hoping to raise 15,000 pounds. So far, she has raised over 1,600 pounds. She still has a long way to go.

26、It seems that not every student is pleased with their English teacher. Some say they give too much homework or the lessons are boring. I think the best English teacher would be a teacher who gives no homework, lets us watch movies in class and never punishes anyone. But other students and parents would not he pleased with such a teacher.
American writer Mark Van Doren said. “The art of teaching is the art of helping discovery.”
For discovery to happen, I believe a great teacher should first connect with their students. They should teach different students in different ways so that they will feel encouraged to ask questions and express their opinions. The teacher should be patient when answering their questions.
Second, they should have a positive attitude (积极的态度) when teaching. They should not only leach their students English, but also the philosophy (哲理) of life.
Last but not least a great English teacher should use good ways to pass their passion (热情) for English onto their students一because as we all knew, interest is the best teacher.
All in all, a great English teacher should be a teacher who is connected with their students, who is kind and respected and who can stimulate (激发) the students’ interest in English.
【1】From Paragraph 1, we can know .
A.not each English teacher is welcomed by their students
