It¡¯s never easy to say goodbye to a longtime companion. For fans of Naruto Uzumaki, the ending of the manga(Âþ») on Nov.10 is like leaving an old friend from a misplaced youth. After 15 years, the brave teen with blonde hair and an orange jumpsuit grew to be a mainstay in the lives of many readers.
¡°He¡¯s far from perfect. He¡¯s very picky eater. He¡¯s afraid of ghosts. He¡¯s got the habit of giving nicknames to people. Naruto reminds me a lot of myself. But I admire him for his courage matter what,¡± said Wu Xian, 25, a faithful fan who woks for English Media in Nanjing.
The manga follows the adventures of leading character Naruto Uzumaki, who wants to be the world¡¯s best ninja(ÈÌÕß). Just like the lead characters in several other young adult comic and cartoons, Naruto wasn¡¯t born to be a hero. Because of a nine-tailed beast within him, Naruto was ignored and excluded bu most people throughout his childhood. But years of being looked down upon and left alone didn¡¯t make him hopeless or world-weary. On the contrary, he woks hard to be a capable ninja and to win the respect and trust of his friends and fellow villagers.
In this global best-selling manga series, Masashi Kishimoto draws out a mysterious(ÉñÃصÄ) world of ninja with outstanding abilities and personalities. Uchiha Sasuke, who later became Naruto¡¯s best friend, was dismissive of him when they first met at the ninja academy, as he was certain he was superior. Naruto never gave up trying to both surpass and befriend Sasuke.
¡°I felt really touched when Sasuke said to Naruto that for the first time he considered him a friend. Actually as he grew stronger, Naruto won recognition among his people, but Sasuke was always special to him,¡± said Shao Shuai, 23, a postgraduate student at Hong Kong Baptist University.
Finally, Naruto has achieved his goal of becoming the seventh Hokage. There are a few remaining questions:Can Naruto¡¯s master Jiraiya see his success? What¡¯s under Kakashi¡¯s mask? But regardless of these loose ends, the young ninja will remain a fond memory in our minds.

36 If you do not know the big word¡¯s meaning, look them up in the dictionary and there it is: e. g. the big word ¡°polysyllable¡±means a word that contains more than two units of speech-sound and that is its ONLY meaning.
The small words in English, on the other hand, often have many possible meanings. 37 Take the word run for example. As a verb,its basic meaning is to move your legs quickly and proceed at a pace faster than walking: He ran quickly up the stairs.
In conflict situations, it has a special meaning ¡°to escape, retreat¡±(short for ¡°run away¡±): When the enemy knew they were defeated, they ran. The basic sense of ¡°moving quickly and easily¡± is often extended from people to things:The car runs perfectly./ 38
When the verb ¡°run¡± is followed by a noun then¡ªunless human leg-activity is clearly indicated as in: He ran a hundred metres in under ten seconds¡ª the meaning switches from ¡°move quickly¡± to¡°organize, conduct¡±:She ran a good dress shop./ They can run the committee without any assistance.
39 When it is used as a noun it keeps the verb¡¯s primary sense of ¡°activity, speed, continuous action¡±. A milk-run or a paper-run is a rout followed by someone regularly delivering milk or newspapers; a run of luck is a series of wins in gambling.
These various usages of ¡°run¡± have resulted in many idiomatic English phrases which are best interpreted by thinking of the basic senses of ¡°run¡±. A criminal on the run has ¡°run away¡± or escaped./One¡¯s money has run out when it has come to an end.
40 So we need to be careful when using small words. A.¡°Run¡± can also be a noun.
B.The news ran all over the country. C.The English big words are the easiest.
D.Let¡¯s come to the topic related to the word. E.Small words in English can be very tricky. F.Their meanings depend on the circumstances,
F.If you run into a friend, you have simply met him by chance. µÚÈý²¿·Ö Ó¢Óï֪ʶÔËÓ㨹²Á½½Ú£¬Âú·Ö45·Ö£©

My dad,¡°Mutt¡± Mantle is more than a father to me, sometimes more like a good judge of talent¡ª¡°Mickey Mantle¡±.
He was 41 about baseball. He made his living working in mines. But he played baseball 42 several town teams.
From the day I was born, Dad said he wanted me to make my living as a baseball player. He named me Mickey 43 a catcher he liked. He hoped I would play for the New York Yankees. Dad often 44 a toy baseball to my crib(Ò¡Àº). One day, 45 , I caught one. Then he was sure I¡¯d be a ball player!
I learned about the 46 on a ball field before I learned my ABC¡¯s. When I was three, Dad had Mama make me a little uniform. He liked to 47 around town in it.
When I was five, I started school. That same day, I had first 48 in switch-hitting(×óÓÒÊÖ¶¼ÄÜ»÷Çò).
Dad and Grandpa were in the yard when I came home from school. They had a small bat and two 49 .
¡°Mickey,¡± said Dad, ¡°Grandpa and I have thought up a new 50 .Take this bat and try to hit our pitches(ͶÖÀ). I¡¯m left-handed. When I throw, you swing right-handed 51 you always have. Grandpa¡¯s right-handed. When he throws, turn around and swing left-handed.¡± Dad was going to make me a 52 ! He knew that a player who can bat both right and left has a good 53 of making hits.
That day I tried and tried. But I couldn¡¯t swing left-handed. After about 15 minutes, I yelled to Mama for help. She said, ¡°I know it¡¯s crazy. But please try, 54 , to make Dad happy.¡±
So, every day after school we had switch-hitting 55 . After two weeks, I didn¡¯t 56 it any more. My 57 were getting trained. I began to hit a few.
After a year or two, Dad and Grandpa began throwing as 58 as they could. And they put real curves(ÇúÏß) on those tennis balls. Then, as I grew older, they began to use baseballs 59 . So you know 60 I, today¡¯s baseball star Mickey Mantle, got my start as a Switch-Hitter. 41.A.curious B.crazy C.nervous D.particular 42.A.

Most Americans don¡¯t like to get advice from members of their family. They get advice from ¡°strangers¡±. When they need advice, they 61 (rare) go to people they know. Instead, many of 62 write letters to newspapers and magazines 63 give advice on many different subjects
64 (include) family problems, the use of language, health, cooking, child care, clothes, and even in how to buy a house or a car.
Most newspapers regularly print letters from readers with problems. Along with the letters there are answers written by people who 65 (suppose) to know how to solve such problems. Some of these writers are doctors, and others are lawyers or 66 (educate). Among the writers, two women are famous. 67 they have no special training for this king of work, they can give the readers suitable advice because they are rich 68 life experience and good at communicating with others. A survey was done last year about why people 69 (turn) to strangers for help and why the two women were well-received. Most people interviewed in 70 survey said this way could help protect their privacy and the advice from the women was practical and effective.

Thank you for you letter. Due to the fact that I am on business in another city, I couldn¡¯t reply to your letter. Now I am writing to tell you that my city has done to reduce traffic jams in the last few years.
First of all, two subways and some expressways have been built in my city to ease the traffic pressures. Second, one-way traffic is allowing on some main streets to reduce traffic jams and accidents. Third, public transportation has been improved to make convenient for people to take buses. However, the parking fee is raised in the downtown, which helps to reduce a number of cars come in and out.
Now there are more buses and few cars in my city. The traffic is flowing smooth during the rush hour.
Cam you tell me something about the traffic in your city?
