Writing 5 The Most Admirable Quality in a Person
A sense of humor is the most admirable quality in a person. It serves as the warm sunshine in a bitter winter. Humorous remarks help shorten the distance between people, cheer them up and warm their hearts. According to the people I have met, those with a sense of humor often look on the bright side of life and are not easily defeated in time of adversity.
My friend, Mark, is a person who possesses such a quality. Wherever he goes, his sense of humor rubs off on others. Whenever I feel sad, I like to have him around. His humorous attitude toward life often enables me to dispel my feeling of melancholy. With this special quality, he has become very popular among his friends. We all consider him a trouble-shooter and a lot of fun to be with. Though he is not physically attractive, a sense of humor makes up for his homely appearance.


Writing 5 The Most Admirable Quality In A Person
幽默感是一個人身上最值得欽佩的特質。幽默感就像是寒冬裡的陽光。幽默的言語有助於縮短人們之間的距離,鼓勵人們,並且溫暖他們的心。根據我所遇過的人,那些有幽默感的人常常對人生抱持樂觀態度,而且遇到困境時不會輕易被打倒。
我的一個朋友馬克就是一位擁有這種特質的人。不管他去哪裡,他的幽默感總是能感染其他人。每當我沮喪時,我喜歡有他在身旁。他對人生幽默的態度讓我能夠消除憂鬱的感覺。因為這項特質,他在朋友中很受歡迎。我們全都認為他是個能解決困擾的人,和他在一起很有趣。雖然他的外表並不吸引人,但是幽默感彌補了他外表的平凡。

從3月20日都考句子。

2010/03/20考試

Reading 33

1. What Charles Lindbergh did in the Spirit of St. Louis is really not enough to explain the extent to which he was idolized by practically the entire nation.

2. It was his daring, his genuine honesty, his handsome appearance, his unerring courtesy and quite good taste that explain the almost hysterical adulation accorded him by millions of his fellow countrymen.

Reading 34

1. Baltimore was founded in 1729. For a generation it seemed no different from a dozen other small settlements springing up at the head of the Chesapeake Bay; its claim to distinction consisted of a blacksmith’s shop, flour mill, and tobacco warehouse.

2. By 1790 it had risen to become the new republic’s fourth largest city with aspirations to overtake the three still ahead: New York, Philadelphia, and Boston.
