But when he stuck his arm into the water it turned grey right up to the elbow. As this happened, a huge sadness entered into him, and he suddenly understood how sad the fish were feeling.‎ ‎ He quickly pulled his arm out of the water, and ran from that place. But the arm stayed grey, and the boy continued feeling sad. He tried so many times to cheer himself up, but nothing worked. That was, until he realized that if he were to make the Earth happy then that happiness would be, in turn, transmitted back to him, through the earth on his arm.‎ ‎ From then on, he set about looking after countryside. He cared for the plants, and he did what he could to keep the water from being polluted. He encouraged others to ‎ do the same. He was so successful that his arm started to recover its normal color. When the grey had disappeared completely, he started feeling happy again, and he decided to go and visit the fountain.

However, using cellphones too often may cause cancer. (61) It’s reported that people who used a cellphone for 10 years or more were more likely to get brain cancer.‎ The suggestions below may help you reduce the risk(风险) of cancer:‎ ‎◆When using your cellphone, try to keep it away from your body as much as possible. Don’t put it under your pillow(枕头) or on a bedside table when you sleep.‎ ‎◆When you’re on the cellphone, use the speaker. In this way, you have just 1/100th of the contact with radiation you have when you hold (63) it to your ear. An earphone is also a good idea.‎ ‎◆Try to keep your conversations short. If you need to talk longer, use an ordinary phone instead.‎ ‎◆Change ears when you’re using your cellphone. Before putting it to your ear, wait until the person you are calling picks up the phone.‎ ‎◆Your phone gives out radiation when you talk or text, but not when you’re listening or getting messages. (64) 多听和少说能降低癌症风险。‎ ‎◆Do not use your cellphone when the signal is weak or when moving at a high speed, for example in a car or train. At high speeds your phone is trying to pick up signals, and this increases the radiation it gives out.‎ 阅读短文，按要求完成下面的任务。‎ 任务一 将（61）处画线部分翻译成中文。‎ 任务二 62.

We Chinese certainly should learn our mother language well. At the same time, English is an international language and tool. We should master it to better know about the world and learn advanced technology abroad to serve our motherland. What’s more, as China is developing quickly, we have more chances to communicate with foreigners in English. ‎ In a word, whether the mark of English will be reduced or not, we students should learn it ‎ well. 作文评分标准： 第一档（13—15分） 句子结构正确，能正确合理的使用简单句和复合句； 层次清楚，要素齐全。 第二档（9—12分） 语言结构正确，单词拼写、时态有些许错误； 要素齐全，层次清楚。 第三档（5—8分） 有些许句子可读且结构基本完整正确，单词拼写错误超过五处； 基本能描述所要表达的观点。 第四档（0—4分） 只有个别句子可读，单词拼写、时态错误较多。‎
