After spending a weekend away with my adult son, I was so impressed by his
generous heart that I sent him this letter.
Dear son,
I want to thank you for teaching me a very 36 lesson in life by the great
example you 37 When we were eating at that cafe in Bondi and a person who
had __38__ his hamburger didn't have enough money to pay for it, without any
39 , you went over and put the 40 $2 into his hand.
When we were leaving, you 41 threw a five-cent coin onto the pavement and
Said 42_ like, "Some kid will really enjoy 43 this. "
Last week, a young man 44 me in the line at a petrol station didn't have
45 money to pay for his petrol. I asked the money collector, "How much 46
is he?" She told me he had meant to put $15 of petrol in his ear 47 he had been
looking at the wrong gauge (計量器) and had put in 15 48 , which came to just
over 49'_. That is an easy mistake 50 both gauges run fast.
Something made me think of you and 51 you did that night at the cafe in
Bondi. I handed the man $6. He was so 52 and said, "But why would you do
this for me?" I just smiled as I thought of you.
Thank you, son, for teaching me that "it's 53 to give than receive". Now
when I sec a five-cent coin on the 54 and want to pick it up, I think of you
and leave it _55 , just in case some kid will get a kick out of finding it.
Love always. Mum.

The next morning Alex was waiting in the FMA president’s suite when Jerome Patterton arrived. Alex filled him in quickly on the Jax report. Then he said, “I want you to give an order to the trust department to sell every share of Supranational we’re holding.”
“I won’t!” Patterton’s voice rose. “Who do you think you are, giving orders-----“ “I’ll tell you who I am, Jerome. I’m the guy who warned the board against in-depth involvement with SuNatCo. I fought against heavy trust department buying of the stock, but no one-----including you -----would listen. Now Supranational is caving in.” Alex leaned across the desk and slammed a fist down hard. “Don’t you understand? Supranational can bring this bank down with it.”
Patterton was shaken. “But is SuNatCo in real trouble? Are you sure?”
“If I weren’t, do you think I’d be here? I’m giving you a chance to salvage something at least.” He pointed to his wristwatch. “It’s an hour since the New York stock market opened. Jerome, get on the phone and give that order!”
Muscles around the bank president’s mouth twitched nervously. Never decisive, strong influence often swayed him. He hesitated, then picked up the telephone.
“Get me Mitchell in the trust department… Mitch? This is Jerome. Listen carefully. I want you to give a sell order immediately on all the Supranational stock we hold… Yes, sell every share.” Patterton listened, then said impatiently, “Yes, I know what it’ll do to the market. And I know it’s irregular.” His eyes sought Alex’s for reassurance. The hand holding the telephone trembled as he said, “There’s no time to hold meetings. So do it! Yes, I accept responsibility.”
He hung up and reached for a glass of water. “The stock is already down. Our selling will depress it more. We’ll be taking a big beating.”
“It’s our clients-----people who trusted us-----who will take the beating. And they’d have taken a bigger one still, if we’d waited. Even now we’re not out of the woods. A week from now the SEC may disallow those sales. They may rule we had inside knowledge that Supranational was about to be bankrupt, which we should have reported and which would have halted trading in the stock.

We use the Internet for many things: business, shopping, writing letters, talking to people, finding information and so on. In recent years, a new kind of English has grown on the Internet. There’s no real word for it yet, so we’ll call it e-talk. People don’t like typing too much. To save time, they turn phrases into a few letters (called acronyms). Acronyms are often used in chat rooms(聊天室). Some of them are:
BTW(by the way); BRB(be right back); LOL(laughing out loud); IMO(in my opinion)
People also use many abbreviations. They are shortened forms of words. Some common abbreviations are:
info(information); puter(computer); pic(picture); sec(second)
We ususally don’t see people when we communicate on the Internet, so people have new ways to show feelings. Most people use their keyboards to draw “feelings”, such as:
:-) (happy); ;-)(joking); :-((sad); :-O(surprised)
These days, many forums(論壇)have picture feelings. For example:
(happy) (sad) (angry) (cool)
There are even whole new words, like ”newbie’s” (someone who is new on a chat board or forum). When you write something bad about someone else, it’s called “flaming” the person.
It takes time for people to get used to e-talk. Also, different groups on the Net have their own special ways of communicating. Newbie’s sometimes have to ask other people what they mean. As the Internet grows, e-talk will continue to grow and change.
【小題1】Why do people type acronyms?
A.To show their feelings. | B.To make jokes. |
C.To save time. | D.In this way newbie’s won’t understand them. |
A.The person is happy about getting a new computer. |
B.The person has to go away from his/her computer. |
C.The person is angry at somebody. |
D.The person is sad that his computer is having problems. |
A. | B.BRB | C.LOL | D. |
A.keep changing | B.stay the same |
C.be used by people on the telephone | D.be easy for newbie’s to understand. |
