November not only marks the publication of Toni Morrison’s eagerly anticipated(期待) eighth novel, Love, but it is also the tenth anniversary of her Nobel Prize for Literature. Morrison is the first black woman to receive a Nobel, and so honored before her in literature are only two black men:Wole Soyinka, the Nigerian playwright, poet and novelist, in 1986; and Derek Walcott, the Caribbean-born poet, in 1992. But Morrison is also the first and only American-born Nobel prizewinner for literature since 1962, the year novelist John Steinbeck received the award.

Like Song of Solomon, Love is a multigenerational story, revealing the personal and communal Legacy(遺產(chǎn)) of an outstanding black family. As Morrison scholars will tell you, Love is the third volume of a literary master’s trilogy(三部曲)investigating the many complexities of love. This trilogy began with Beloved(1988), which deals with a black mother’s love under slavery and in freedom. Jazzy(1993), the second volume, tells a story of romantic love in 1920s Harlem. This latest novel looks back from the 1970s to the 1940s and 50s.

The emotional center of Love is Bill Cosey, the former owner and host of the shabby Cosey’s Hotel and Resort in Silk, North Carolina, described in the novel as “the best and best-known vacation sport for colored folk on the East Coast.” We get to know Cosey through the memories of five women who survive and love him: his granddaughter, his widow, two former employees, and a homeless young girl.    

The latest novel, Love, had been described in the promotional material from her publisher as “Morrison’s most accessible work since Song of Solomon.” This comparison to her third novel, published in 1977, was an effective selling point.

請以南湖為題，寫一篇130個單詞左右的英語短文。要點(diǎn)如下：

長春市南湖公園位于長春市內(nèi)，是市內(nèi)最大的公園，為全國第二大園，是長春最大的公園，是度假休閑的好去處。

Dating from 1933,the South Lake Park in Changchun is located in the southwestern part of the changchun city .                                                        

If you want to have fun and more than fun , do come to the South Lake Park! 

I received pictures of my daughter floating (漂浮) on a lake in California. Right there under the sun during the hottest time of the day, she has only her swimsuit to cover her.

    When I showed it to my students, it was as if I had shown them scenes from a horror (恐怖) movie.

    “But she will get dark,” they said.

    “That’s what she wants,” I told them. “We think darker skin (膚色) is beautiful.”

     They looked at me in disbelief. It was as if I came from the moon.

     For years, American girls spend their summer trying to get as tanned (曬黑) as possible. In China, on the other hand, girls use umbrellas all year round.

    What in the world is going on?

    The pale skin we think looks unattractive (不漂亮) is what Asian women want. Both groups want to meet their culture’s standard (標(biāo)準(zhǔn)) of beauty.

    In the US, if you can afford to go on vacation in the summer, you head for a river, a lake or a beach, where you try to get as much sun as possible. If you are rich you take a winter vacation in some sunny spot. Your winter tan shows your wealth.

    In China, once upon a time, the few wealthy were the ones who didn’t have to work out in the hot sun. So the whiter the skin, the richer the woman. The folk opera performers who play these ladies wore lots of white makeup (妝容). The tradition survives to this day.

    So it comes naturally that none of my students wishes to follow the Western ways in this regard.

    But now I am noticing that a new business – the tanning booth (美黑店) – started up in China. I admire those brave enough to define（給…下定義）their own idea of beauty, but I do wonder what their grandmothers would have to say to them about it!

A. they thought it shameful for a girl only to wear a swimsuit 

B. the writer’s daughter was wearing very little while out in the sun

C. it is dangerous for a girl to be out on a lake alone

D. with the powerful sunlight the writer’s daughter would have got a suntan

   A. Women with blond hair.                                        B. Women with a slim figure.

   C. Women with tanned skin.                                        D. Women with pale skin.

In the US a winter tan usually means the person _____.

   A. is hard-working                                           B. doesn’t have to work

   C. has a lot of money and spare time                         D. is from a very poor family

The year 2009 is the Year of Ox. The ox is a representative of the farming culture of China. In the farming economy （經(jīng)濟(jì)）, oxen are the major animals pulling plows （犁）.

Of course, the good of oxen is not limited to plowing.  In fact, they are seen as "boats on land" for their ability to carry loads. Besides, the whole body of an ox is full of treasures. Their meat and milk are food full of nutrition, and their skin can be used to make clothes and shoes. With all these qualities, oxen are regarded as generous creatures.

For example, some people who1ive in southwest China will cook cattle bone soup and share it among family members when holding the ceremony for children who reach 13. They believe that the cattle bone soup represents the blood relationship among family members. In order to express their love for oxen, people in some other areas will run to shake off diseases on the 16th day of the first month by the lunar calendar （農(nóng)歷）, and during their run they will take their oxen along, which indicates they regard the creature as human.

I like music very much, pop songs particularly. Every evening then I am doing homework and at weekends when I at home, I always play some of my favorite songs on my tape recorder. The familiar patterns of notes attract me into the colourfully world of music. Now and then I stopped to follow the songs. Sometimes, my mother comes in, asked me to fix my attention to my homework. She does not like the pop music. Like most grown-ups, she enjoys folk songs, because the peaceful music reminds her of their beautiful life when she was young. It is a truth which people of different age understand music differently and enjoy different kinds of music.
