After spending a weekend away with my adult son, I was so impressed by his generous heart that I sent him this letter.
Dear son, I want to thank you for teaching me a very 51 lesson in life by the great example you set. When we were eating at that café in Bondi and a person who had 52 his hamburger didn’t have enough money to pay for it, without any hesitation, you went over and put the 53 $2 into his hand. When we were leaving, you also threw a five-cent coin onto the pavement and said 54like, “Some kid will really enjoy finding this.” Last week, a young man 55 me in the line at a petrol station didn’t have enough money to pay for his petrol. I asked the money collector, “How much 56 is he?” She told me he had meant to put $15 of petrol in his car but he had been looking at the wrong gauge and had put in 15 57, which came to just over $20. That is an easy mistak 58both gauges run fast.
Something made me think of you and what you did that night at the café in Bondi. I handed the man $6. He was so 59and said, “But why would you do this for me?” I just smiled as I thought of you.
Thank you, son, for teaching me that “it’s better to give than receive”. Now when I see a five-cent coin on the 60and want to pick it up, I think of you and leave it there , just in case some kid will get a kick out of finding it. Love always, Mum

Part V Translation (25 minutes, 15 points)
Directions: Translation the following passage into Chinese and put your Translation on the ANSWER SHEET.
Many people think an only child is lucky because of the material goods and attention he or she receives. But only children have their problems, too. For one thing, they have no privacy. Parents always feel entitled to know everything that’s going on in an only child’s life. Also, only children never have the opportunity to put the blame on a brother or sister for something they’ve done wrong. Third, only children miss the companionship of brothers and sisters. They can be lonely, and they may have trouble making friends later in life because they have never learned to get along with a brother or sister.

Passage One
Last night's meteor(流星)shower left many people in the community dissatisfied and demanding answers. According to Gabe Rothschild, Emerald Valley's mayor, people gathered in the suburbs of the city, carrying heavy telescopes, expecting to watch the brightly burning meteors passing through the sky. What they found instead was a sky so brightened by the city's lights that it darkened the light of the meteors passing overhead.
“My family was so frustrated，” admitted town resident Duane Cosby.“We wanted to make this an unforgettable family outing, but it turned out to be a huge disappointment.”
Astronomers—scientists who study stars and planets—have been complaining about this problem for decades. They say that light pollution prevents them from seeing objects in the sky that they could see quite easily in the past. They call on people and the government to take measures to fight against it.
There is yet a population besides professional and amateur star observers that suffers even more from light pollution. This population consists of birds, bats, frogs，snakes，etc.For example, outdoor lighting severely affects migrating (迁徙的)birds. According to the International Dark Sky Association，“100 million birds a year throughout North America die in crashes with lighted buildings and towers.” Countless more animal casualties(伤亡) result from the use of artificial lighting. Clearly，people enjoy the benefits of lighting their evenings, but some scientists think it can be harmful for humans，too. They worry that exposure to light while sleeping can increase a person's chances of getting cancer. Emerald Valley is only one community that is becoming aware of the negative effects of light pollution. For years, Flagstaff, Arizona, has enforced lighting regulations in its city in order to assist astronomers at the Lowell Observatory. Similar efforts have been made worldwide, and a movement is underway to remind us to turn off lights when we are not using them, so that other creatures can share the night. 11．It happened last night that ________． A. the city's lights affected the meteor watching B．the meteors flew past before being noticed C．the city light show attracted many people D．the meteor watching ended up a social outing 12．What do the astronomers complain about? A．Meteor showers occur less often than before. B．Their observation equipment is in poor repair. C．Light pollution has remained unsolved for years. D．Their eyesight is failing due to artificial lighting. 13．What is the author concerned about according to Paragraph 4? A. Birds may take other migration paths. B．Animals' living habits may change suddenly. C．Varieties of animals will become sharply reduced. D．Animals' survival is threatened by outdoor lighting.
14．Lighting regulations in Flagstaff, Arizona are put into effect to________． A．lessen the chance of getting cancer B．create an ideal observation condition C．ensure citizens a good sleep at night D．enable all creatures to live in harmony
15．What message does the author most want to give us? A．Saving wildlife is saving ourselves.
B．Great efforts should be made to save energy.
C．Human activities should be environmentally friendly. D．New equipment should be introduced for space study.
