Jack is the name of a game that is quite popular with children. To play jack, you’ll need a small rubber ball ten small metal objects: jacks. The rules for this game are very simple. To begin, you put the ten jacks on the floor or ground in front of you. Throw the ball up, pick up one jack and then catch the ball. Keep the jack in your hand and then continue to pick up the other jacks one at a time. You lose your turn if you do not catch the ball, or if you do not pick up a jack or you drop any jacks from your hands.
When you finish all ten jacks, you now try to do the same thing again but with two jacks at a time. This is more difficult, of course. You will lose your turn if you do not pick up exactly two jacks or if you make any of the other mistakes.

The horsepower was first used two hundred years ago. James Watt had made the world’s first widely used steam engine. He had no way of telling people exactly how powerful it was, for at that time there were no units for measuring power.
Watt decided to find out how much work one strong horse could do in one minute. He called that unit one horsepower. With this unit he could measure the work his steam engine could do.
He discovered that a horse could lift a 3,300-pound weight 10 feet into the air in one minute. His engine could lift a 3,300 pound weight 100 feet in one minute.
Because his engine did ten times as much work as the horse, Watt called it a ten-horsepower engine.

III. 书面表达参考答案：
Dear Jack,
New Year’s Day is around the corner and winter holiday will begin soon. Now I’m writing to tell you something about my school life this term, which I think you may want to know.
As I have told you, our school is a key senior middle school, so we live a busy and regular life every day. We learn eight subjects including Chinese, maths, English , chemistry, physics, history, politics and computer studies, among which I like English best. In my spare time, I take part in different activities. I play football. Sometimes I surf the net , playing games or chating with my friends. In my opinion, our school life is interesting and colourful. I will take the final exam soon, I do hope I can get a good result.
By the way, I am going on a trip to the south of China to enjoy a warmer winter as you. How are you getting along these days? and what are you going to do in your holiday? Please write back to tell me.
All the best!
Yours Li Hua
