I have had all kinds of interesting neighbors since the early days of my life. When I was a baby I would stand in my wooden crib(嬰兒床) and watch the world go by through the window. Some neighbors watched me watching the world go by with by big, wondering eyes and found me very interesting. They used to call me “the beauty at the window”.

The early neighbors I could remember were from the second house I lived in. Peter and Paul were twins. We went to play school together although they were a year older than me. I well remember the Alsatian they had which ran into me when I was invited to their fifth birthday party. Needless to say, I was well-known for my loud screams after the party. But they said the pet was scared of my screams and didn’t appear until the party was over.

Peter and Paul were the first boys who encouraged me to climb the gate. I could never tell the difference between boy and girl behaviors—I just did what I thought was fun. Not only did I have a great time performing that first climb, I also got my skirts dirty, and was criticized by my mother.

The Japanese neighbors I had living in this same house were my favorite, as they introduced me to sea-salt baked shrimps (烤蝦) which were so crisp that you could eat the shrimp totally. They gave me some seaweed for my birthday. Thankfully, no other member in my family enjoyed the seaweed as I did. Perhaps what my mother used to joke to me was true, that I was picked up out of the dustbin that belonged to a Japanese home.

Maybe sometimes it is difficult to find good neighbors in this society. But all it takes is a spark(火花) to get a fire going. I have decided to be that spark wherever I live and pass love on to my neighbors.

1.We can guess "the Alsatian" in the twin brothers' home is ________.

A. a small child

B. an interesting toy

C. a dog

D. a bicycle

2.From the passage we can know that the author ________.

A. enjoyed the Japanese neighbors' cooking style most

B. had difficulty getting on with the twin brothers' family

C. was described as interesting when playing with boys

D. had many neighbors that worked in restaurants

3.What can we infer from the passage?

A. The author often moved to other places.

B. Peter and Paul liked to play tricks on others.

C. The neighbors the author had were good at cooking.

D. The author had a good relationship with her neighbors.

A popular saying goes, “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.” However, that’s not really true. Words have the power to build us up or tear us down. It doesn’t matter if the words come from someone else or ourselves — the positive and negative effects are just as lasting.

We all talk to ourselves sometimes. We’re usually too embarrassed to admit it, though. In fact, we really shouldn’t be because more and more experts believe talking to ourselves out loud is a healthy habit.

This “self-talk” helps us motivate ourselves, remember things, solve problems, and calm ourselves down. Be aware, though, that as much as 77% of self-talk tends to be negative. So in order to stay positive, we should only speak words of encouragement to ourselves. We should also be quick to give ourselves a pat on the back. The next time you finish a project, do well in a test, or finally clean your room, join me in saying “Good job!”

Often, words come out of our mouths without us thinking about the effect they will have. But we should be aware that our words cause certain responses in others. For example, when returning an item to a store, we might use warm, friendly language during the exchange. And the clerk will probably respond in a similar manner. Or harsh (刻薄的) and critical language will most likely cause the clerk to be defensive.

Words possess power because of their lasting effects. Many of us regret something we once said. And we remember unkind words said to us! Before speaking, we should always ask ourselves: Is it true? Is it loving? Is it needed? If what we want to say doesn’t pass this test, then it’s better left unsaid.

Words possess power: both positive and negative. Those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively. We can offer hope, build self-esteem (自尊) and motivate others to do their best. Negative words destroy all those things. Will we use our words to hurt or to heal? The choice is ours.

1.There is no need for us to feel embarrassed when we talk to ourselves because ________.

A. we can benefit from talking to ourselves

B. talking to ourselves always gives us courage

C. almost everybody has the habit of talking to themselves

D. it does no harm to have “self-talk” when we are alone

2.The underlined part in the third paragraph means that we should also timely ________.

A. remind ourselves

B. praise ourselves

C. make ourselves relaxed

D. give ourselves amusement

3.The author would probably hold the view that ________.

A. encouraging words are sure to lead to kind offers

B. negative words may motivate us to make more progress

C. people tend to remember friendly words

D. it is better to think twice before talking to others

4.In which column of the newspaper can you most likely read this passage?

A. Language.B. Advice column.C. Health.D. News.

British Women Writers in different periods of time

The English Renaissance

The English Renaissance began in the later part of the fifteenth century and lasted until the 1660s. Among the most famous women writers of this period is Aphra Behn, who is seen as the first professional woman writer in English. She wrote a number of plays that dealt with topics such as racism and slavery. A good example is Oroonoko published in 1688. Aphra Behn's works include also the plays The Amourous Prince, The Town Fop, The Dutch Lover and her only tragedy, Abdelazer.

The neoclassical period

Among the well-known women in Bristish literature during the neoclassical period, from 1660 to the end of the eighteenth century, is Anne Finch.

They wear the latest fashions with the most up-to-date accessories(配飾). Yet these are not girls in their teens or twenties but women in their sixties and seventies.A generation which would once only wear old-fashioned clothes is now favouring the same high street looks worn by those half their age.

Professor Julia Twigg, a social policy expert, said, “Women over 75 are now shopping for clothes more frequently than they did when they were young in the 1960s.In the 1960s buying a coat for a woman was a serious matter.It was an expensive item that they would purchase only every three or four years — now you can pick one up at the supermarket whenever you wish to.Fashion is a lot cheaper and people get tired of things more quickly.”

Professor Twigg analysed family expenditure(支出) data and found that while the percentage of spending on clothes and shoes by women had stayed around the same — at 5 or 6 percent of spending — the amount of clothes bought had risen sharply.

The professor said, “Clothes are now 70 percent cheaper than they were in the 1960s because of the huge expansion of production in the Far East.In the 1960s Leeds was the heart of the British fashion industry and that was where most of the clothes came from, but now almost all of our clothes are sourced elsewhere.Everyone is buying more clothes but in general we are not spending more money on them.”

Fashion designer Angela Barnard, who runs her own fashion business in London, said older women were much more affected by the celebrity(名流) style than in previous years.

She said, “When people see stars such as Judi Dench and Helen Mirren looking attractive and fashionable in their sixties, they want to follow them.Older women are much more aware of celebrities. There’s also the boom in TV programmes showing people how they can change their look, and many of my older customers do yoga to stay in shape well in their fifties.When I started my business a few years ago, my older customers tended to be very rich, but now they are what I would call ordinary women.My own mother is 61 and she wears the latest fashions in a way she would never have done ten years ago.”

1.Professor Twigg found that, compared with the 1960s, _________.

A.the spending on clothes has increased by 5% or 6%

B.the price of clothes has generally fallen by 70%

C.people spend 30% less than they did on clothes

A.They are often ignored by fashion designers.

B.They are now more easily influenced by stars.

C.They are regarded as pioneers in the latest fashion.

D.They are more interested in clothes because of their old age.

A.clothes are much cheaper than before

B.TV shows teach them how to change their look

C.they are in much better shape now

A Chinese actor's divorce from his wife has social media buzzing, with posts about the subject gaining over five billion views. WangBaoqiang announced online on Sunday that he was divorcing his wife, Ma Rong. He alleged that his marriage broke down after his wife had an affair with his agent, and that she had also transferred the couple's joint assets. The topic has sparked a debate about relationships and divorce, and it seems Wang's predicament(窘境) has struck a chord with(引起共鳴) many — which could explain the number of views, which are high even by Chinese standards.

What exactly are they saying?

Chinese netizens seem to have rallied(團結)around Wang, with topics like #WangDon’tCry# #WangWeSupportYou#, quickly trending after news of the divorce spread. Statistics by Weibo showed that 87% of netizens' posts condemned Ma for her affair, saying it had shattered her family. Some have even published her home address online. “Wang is a hardworking man from a rural area. She cheated an honest man. I hate these kinds of people,”said one commenter on weibo.

But why are they so interested?

No other celebrity divorce or marriage has ever caused such a big stir on Chinese social media. On the surface, this might seem like just another Chinese celebrity split. But what is it about this one that's got all of China ruffled up? Some people feel that this divorce seems to fit a certain trope — of a beautiful but ordinary girl marrying a rich but less good-looking man. It is not uncommon to hear the belief that a couple has to "match" at every level — be it in status, or physical appearance — for a relationship to work out. "The concept of being evenly matched is still one that is widely believed in China," Dr Mu Zheng, Assistant Professor, Department of Sociology at the National University of Singapore told the BBC's Yvette Tan.

It's also making people talk about divorce.

A lot of social media discussion has also centred around divorce, and in particular how people can protect themselves. Wang has alleged that his wife transferred and hid some of the couple's assets. They're a wealthy couple — their assets, according to Chinese media, include nine flats, a BMW car and various luxury goods. As a result, people are debating the importance of protecting individual assets, even after marriage. Attitudes towards divorce are fast changing in China, and divorce rates are on the rise. State newspaper Global Times says a total of 3.84 million couples in China divorced in 2015, an increase of 5.6% from 2014.“People are getting much more open to the idea of divorce now, especially as Chinese people become more educated and open-minded towards both marriage and divorce,” says Dr Mu.

1.Which statement is not true?

A. “Match” opinion about marriage is still widely believed in China.

B. Most Chinese netizens show great sympathy for Wang.

C. People are getting more open to divorce just because of the increasing level of education.

D. Wang’s divorce leads to social effects to some degree.

2.What’s the reaction of the public to Wang’s divorce?

A. Most people dare not comment on it.

B. Most netizens choose to ignore it.

C. Most netizens are condemning Wang’s wife.

D. Most people show little concern about it.

3.Which section can you find this news in a newspaper?

A. SocietyB. ScienceC. CultureD. Economy

4.What may be the best title for this news?

A. Why a Chinese celebrity divorce has social media buzzing

B. Why WangBaoqiang divorces his wife

C. Chinese people’s attitude towards divorce has changed greatly

D. Chinese divorce rates are on the rise
