Kathy could still remember the night she had to leave her home in Hungary. It was the beginning of World War II and her family had to leave their country as soon as possible. She quickly filled a bag with a few pieces of clothing, her diary, and her treasure—a beautiful silk scarf.

Kathy and her best friend, Monica, had asked their parents to buy them matching scarves. They each would wear the scarves as a symbol of their friendship. Kathy had no idea that she was going to America that night and would not be returning.

Kathy kept that special silk scarf for many years. One day she decided to give it to her granddaughter, Eliza, to wear to her first job interview for good luck. Kathy was afraid that Eliza would lose the scarf, but the granddaughter promised, “Don’t worry, Grandma, nothing’s going to happen to your scarf. You’ll see. It is going to bring both of us luck today.” And with that, Eliza kissed her grandmother and left for the interview.

That afternoon Eliza left the interview, feeling sure that she had got the job. So she decided to celebrate by going to a restaurant. As she was sitting at her table, she felt someone looking at her. Sitting next to her was an old woman, who could not take her eyes away from her.

“I’m sorry, do I know you?” Eliza asked.

“I’m sorry, dear, but you make me think of someone I once knew,” the old woman replied. “My best friend looked like you and used to wear a scarf just like the one you’re wearing around your neck.” Eliza listened carefully, with her eyes and mouth wide open. She had heard stories of her grandmother’s best friend and knew the meaning of the scarf. Could this be Monica, her grandmother’s childhood friend?

Eliza introduced herself and waited to hear the name of the other woman.

“My name’s Monica, dear. I lived in Hungary as a child, but my family had to leave when I was fourteen years old. I’ve been living here in California ever since.” said the old woman.

Eliza could not believe her ears …

Last week, Chicago became the first city in the US to join the “Lights Out Plan”. People turned off the lights in the city’s tallest buildings, so that thousands of birds could get to their winter homes. Every year in autumn, some birds fly over Chicago on their way to the south, and come back the next spring．

Lights mean danger to birds. Birds find their way by looking at the stars in the sky. Lights in tall buildings are so bright that birds may mistake them as stars. This means they can not find the right way to go home．

This month, about 300 types of birds are flying over Chicago to go back to the south to live through the cold winter. Birds fly to warmer places for a few reasons. Many birds cannot live in the cold, so they fly to warmer places. But there are other reasons，too. Birds need to look for food in the south. Another reason is that they want to have baby birds. Many birds like to have their baby birds in the same “house” they lived in last year, so they fly back there.

There are about 9,000 kinds of birds in the world, and about 600 kinds of birds migrate（遷徙）. Some birds can fly a very long way. Sometimes they fly to other countries. We have fewer birds today because there are fewer places for birds．

1.Why did people in Chicago turn off their lights last week?

A. Because people wanted to save money．

B. Because people liked the dark night．

C. Because people were afraid that birds would make much noise．

D. Because people were afraid that birds would lose their way．

2.Today we have fewer birds because __________．

A. lots of birds are often ill B. people kill lots of birds

C. there are fewer places for birds D. other animals eat them

3.Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A. All birds fly to warmer places every year．

B. Some birds have to fly to warmer places in autumn．

C. Some birds can fly a long way to other countries．

D. About 600 kinds of birds migrate in the world．

Have you ever been in a conflict(沖突)? Do you know how to solve it? Conflict resolution is a peaceful way of trying to solve a conflict. Both sides in the conflict explain what they think happened to cause it. The person who listens to both sides is called the mediator(調(diào)解人).

After both sides tell what they think happened to cause the conflict, they discuss ways to solve it. They try to come up with a “resolution” that both sides agree to. They cannot be angry during the communication. Everyone should use good listening and attending skills while talking. If voices get too loud or it appears that someone is angry, the mediator will speak up and have them treat each other with respect. After different suggestions are shared in how to mediate the conflict, it is time for

discussing the best solution(解決辦法).

Here is an example of how conflict resolution works step by step in a school playground setting:

● Someone says a student pushed him on the football field.

● The person who was accused as the “pusher” says it was actually an accident.

● The person who was pushed gets the mediator.

● The mediator takes the two persons to a quieter place, away from others to talk.

● The mediator calms them down and lets them know he understands their feelings.

●Each person describes what happened.

● The mediator repeats what he heard, so it is clear to everyone.

● The mediator asks for ideas to solve the problem.

● The two persons offer their own solutions.

● The two persons have a discussion and come to an agreement.

● The mediator makes sure the persons follow the solution.

● The mediator offers praise for solving the problem.

Conflict resolution can be used in many environments. It encourages people to tell what really happened, to share their feelings, and to work together peacefully to solve the problem. It offers people workable steps to reach an agreement with the help of a mediator.

1.According to the passage, if two students have had a fight, they had better .

A. call the police B. get a mediator

C. ask parents for ideas D. describe the fight to teachers

2.In conflict resolution, the mediator’s job is to .

A. describe what really happened to both sides

B. help both sides reach an agreement in a proper way

C. listen to both sides and then punish the trouble maker

D. write down what both sides have explained in the communication

3.The underlined words “was accused” in this passage might mean “ ” in Chinese.

A. 被懲罰 B. 被輕視 C. 被指責(zé) D. 被否定

4.The writer gives the example in the passage in order to .

A. show how a mediator works in a football match

B. help us know the importance of a mediator in daily life

C. show how conflict resolution is used in different environments

D. help us clearly understand the workable steps in conflict resolution
