    The next morning, Tom went into the exam room very early. He found a young man 6 looked so confident and took a seat next to him. "Hey you！" Tom greeted ."What？" the young man asked.

    " Can you do me a favor？" Tom begged(恳求)."Please let me 7your paper during the exam. I have to depend on you！" When hearing his words, the young man just smiled but said 8.

    Australia is the greatest island in the world .It is to the south of the equator (赤道). So when it is summer in our country, it is cold winter in Australia.

    Australia is big, but the population (人口) there is thin. The population is the same as that of Shanghai, a city of China. Australia is a young, diverse nation and the Australian people come from many different countries.

    Australia has many, many sheep. After a short drive from town, you will see sheep around you. You can also find a kangaroo which has a "bag" below its chest. The mother kangaroo keeps its babies in the "bag".

    Australia is considered to be a relaxed, informal society. When greeting others, students and young people usually say "Hello" or "Hi". Sometimes they say "How's it going？" or "Good day". In more formal (正式的) situations they usually shake hands the first time they meet. "Good morning", "Good afternoon" or "Pleased to meet you" are formal greetings. English is Australia's national language.

    Suzhou is a famous city in China. You can see beautiful mountains and trees in the city.

    Easy to make and cheap to buy, instant noodles(方便面) are popular in China .But sales of instant noodles continue to fall these years. So what's going on? Here are some possible reasons.

    People want better food

    Instant noodles are very easy to cook. However, Chinese people's lives have improved a lot. More and more people are interested in life quality instead of just having a full stomach.

    Trains

    About 20 years ago, people usually ate instant noodles during long train journeys in China. But now trains run faster and faster and people have more choices about food on the train.

    Ordering food online

    Many apps on the phone can offer food delivery(递送) to your home, school, office or wherever you are. These meals are more delicious than instant noodles.

    While you are at the bookstore, you may be faced with a difficult decision: e­ books or paper books? Each one has its advantages and disadvantages. Making the best decision depends on a number of factors(因素).

    An e­ reader can carry a whole library wherever you go, which is great for travelers or those who always want a choice of reading materials. Although e­ readers are convenient, high levels of screen brightness from an electronic device(电子设备) can cause eye problems. A study in the Information Science Research found that young people preferred e­ readers, like smart phones or iPads. That's why most teenagers are short­sighted.

    Many book lovers prefer paper books and value the feeling of them. Paper books are very well designed, they look and smell good, and they carry with them a more human touch. Avid(热衷的) readers prefer reading on paper .Perhaps this is their choice because paper books give them a sense of ownership .It is reported that reading on paper rather than an electronic screen is better for memory and focus .But paper books are heavy and they are not convenient to carry.

    Which is your decision, an e ­book or a paper book?
