Peterwondered  why  he  didn’t have many friends. The reason was he was always 

taking, never giving. 

One day Peter told Bill, “I’d like to give a party on Saturday, I’d like you to come and

 bring Martha, too.” “Thanks, Peter. We’d be happy to come.” “Perhaps you’d like to

 bring your violin. You and Martha sing well together.  I’m sure everyone will want you to sing for us.” That was how Peter began to plan his party. Next he asked another

 friend, Betty to bring a cake. “You make the best cake in the world, Betty, and I like to

 eat your cake better than have one from the bakery.” Peter invited a few other friends to come to his party. He didn’t forget to ask something from each one of them. He even

 asked Jim and Mary Jackson to let him give the party at their house! They agreed. 

The party was a big success. However, as the guests were leaving, they said “Thank you ” to Bill and Martha for the music, Betty for the cake, the Jacksons for the use of the

 house and to others for their hard work. To Peter they just said, “ Thanks for the

 invitation.”

1.The party was held(被舉行) ________ .

A. at Peter’s house B. in a large hall C. at Peter’s friend’s house

2.________ liked Peter.

A. Few people B. Many of his friends C. Everyone

3.From the story, we can see Peter was ________ .

The timer is running. These people have 60 minutes to escape (逃脫) from a room they paid to be locked inside.

It is a game with clues (線索) that are spread in the room. And there is no starting point. You start wherever you feel like. It is up to you to put the clues together in order to find the key to get out.

A popular room offered by Timothy Smith in Washington D.C. is designed to mimic (模仿) the Oval Office in the White House. It is built like the office of the American president. The fun part of Escape the Oval Office is that anything here could be a clue to solving the puzzle. An old typewriter from the 1930s. Or the small table in the corner. Or the map of Washington D.C. on the wall. And then there are hidden messages that can only be seen under a black light.

Sometimes, the telephone rings. “Would you guys like a clue?” The boss controls the game progress on a camera and calls to offer hints (提示) when needed.

Teams can be made up of classmates, families, tourists, or a group of six friends and two strangers who just meet before the game starts.

It’s said that there are more than 800 Escape Room adventures in Washington D.C.. Each experience has different themes and stories. The rules for playing are similar, and solving the puzzle needs social, physical abilities and quick, creative thinking.

It was a little stressful. Some of the clues seemed really complex (復(fù)雜的). But it was a lot of fun, and the players had no idea what to expect.

Escape Room adventure is popular because it gives any person a chance to be a detective or to be a James Bond. However, like most team sports, this game is really all about being a good teammate and having a good time.

1.Escape the Oval Office is a popular room in __________ .

A. Chongqing B. Washington D.

C. C. Beijing D. Hong Kong

2.The underlined word in the last paragraph means__________ .

A. 偵探 B. 律師 C. 醫(yī)生 D. 政客

After giving a talk at a high school, I was asked to pay a visit to a special student. An illness had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me, and it would mean a great deal to him, so I agreed. During the nine-mile drive to his home, I found out something about Matthew. He had muscular dystrophy (肌肉萎縮癥).When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to see five, and then they were told he would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal power lifter, and I knew about overcoming(克服)difficulties and going for my dreams. I spent over an hour talking to Matthew. Never once did he complain or ask, “Why me?” He spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams. Clearly, he knew what he was talking about. He didn’t mention that his classmates had made fun of him because he was different. He just talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weight with me. When we finished talking, I pulled out the first gold medal I won and put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overcoming difficulties than I ever would. He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back to me. He said, “You are a champion. You won that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.” Last summer I received a letter from Matthew’s parents telling me that Matthew had passed away. They wanted me to have a letter he had written to me a few days before:Dear Rick, My mum said I should send you a thank-you letter for the picture you sent me. I also want to let you know that the doctors tell me that I don’t have long to live any more, but I still smile as much as I can. I told you someday that I was going to the Olympics and win a gold medal, but I know now I will never get to do that. However, I know I’m a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you. Thank you for loving me. Your friend, Matthew
