After a while, the nurse called her name.They went into the doctor’s room.He put a thermometer under Liu Ying’s tongue and examined her chest with a stethoscope.He told Liu Ying’s mother that her daughter had a flu.Then he wrote a medical prescription for her.
After leaving the room, they went to the counter.The nurse gave her a bottle of medicine and some pills.She told her to take them regularly.Her mother paid her 24 yuan.They went home by taxi.
At home, she took the medicine regularly, and she had a good rest.After two days, she returned to school.
Passage 15
Outing
One of the things that I like to do most with my two friends is outing.We often go for an outing together during the school holidays.
Last Sunday, we went for an outing to Shapotou, which is 100 kilometers west of Zhongning.After a good breakfast, we started at 8:00 a.m.by bus.One and a half hours later, we arrived and bought three tickets and entered the park.First we climbed to the top of the sand hill and slid down the slope.We did this several times as it made us excited.Then we took the cable car across the Yellow River.
After the picnic we floated on the raft made of sheep’s skin for about an hour and then got on the bank.Finally we enjoyed riding the camels through the desert.How we enjoyed the time! But we had to go back home at about 4:00 p.m.
Passage 16
The Zhongning People’s Hospital
The Zhongning People’s Hospital is a big and beautiful hospital.It is quite a new hospital.There are many large blocks of buildings within the hospital grounds.These tall buildings are separated by wide paths, roads and well——kept gardens.The concrete walls are clean and bright.The grass is fresh and green.Trees and flowers are everywhere.
One day, I visited my friend Lily in the hospital.She was admitted in Ward 8.The ward was very noisy and crowded.Many people had come to visit their sick friends or relatives.
When Lily saw me, she was very happy and told me that she would be discharged sooner than expected.She looked “as fit as a fiddle”.The stitches she had during her operation had been removed and there was no more pain.I could see the sparkle in her eyes.I felt happy for her.

Passage 7
A Letter
Dear Head of the county government,
I am the head of Zhuying Village.Recently we are greatly worried about the construction of a new paper factory in our village.
In our village, all the villagers, including me, are greatly against the construction of the paper factory in our village.
Though the factory will help make a lot of many for our county, we do think it will do more harm than good.The drink water and the air will be polluted.It will certainly do great harm to our crops.How can we live in such a place where there is no clean water to drink, no fresh air to breathe and no crops to grow?
In a word, it is not wise to build such a factory in our village.
Passage 8
Saying Good——bye to the Internet Bar
Now many students go on lines in the Internet Bar without going to school.The number has been increasing.It is said that more than one third of the students in a certain school go to the Internet Bar.Some even do not go to school or even steal money to go on lines there.It is really a serious problem for so many students to go to the Internet Bar.
As we know, going on lines too much is very bad to our study.For us students, it does great harm not only to our study but also to our health and minds.
We students are the future builders of our country.We should devote our time to our study in the classroom, learning useful things, not to playing games or chatting on lines in Internet Bar.So those who go to the Internet Bar too much should at once say good——bye to the Internet Bar.
