We have arrived in the hot, wet city of Bangkok. This is our first trip to Thailand(泰國(guó)). All the different smells make us want to try the food. We are going to eat something special for dinner tonight. The hotel we are staying in is cheap, and very clean. We plan to stay here for a few days, visit some places in the city, and then travel to Chiang Mai in the North.
Tuesday, March 27th
Bangkok is wonderful and surprising. The places are interesting. We visited the famous market which was on water, and saw a lot of fruits and vegetables. Everything is so colorful, and we have taken hundreds of photos already! Later today we will leave for Chiang Mai. We will take the train north, stay in Chiang Mai for two days, and then catch a bus to Chiang Rai.
Friday, March 30th
Our trip to Chiang Rai was long and boring. We visited a small village in the mountains. The village people here love the quiet life—no computers or phones. They are the kindest people I have ever met. They always smile and say “hello”. Kathy and I can only speak a few words of Thai, so smiling is the best way to show our kindness. I feel good here and hope to be able to come back next year.

Do you have any skiing equipment you no longer need? A ski school in the far north of India could put it to good use.
In March we published a photo story about the extraordinary Zsnskar region in northern India,which is cut off from the outside world for more than seven months of the year,and only accessible (可通行的)via a frozen river.We also included information about the limited use of skiing in the region and the recent creation of the Zanskar Ski School:
“Despite the difficulties of travelling through the region when the snow comes,skiing hasn’t traditionally been used as a means of transport by the locals,largely because trees don't grow here, so there is little in the way of raw materials from which to make skis.In 1995, a group of British scientists in the region noticed the lack of skis and one of them returned to set up the Zanskar Ski School in Padam.The school provides lessons for a small fee and rents skis to the local people. Among the benefits that the school hopes to bring are improved education—children often find it difficult to get to school through the deep snow—and the possibility of offering ski tours to tourists in the future.So far,more than 300 local people have received training,and local doctors and policemen regularly borrow skis.”
But what we weren't able to include in the article is that the ski school is always on the look out for old skiing equipment—particularly of a size suitable for children—and, I thought. Now the European ski season is drawing to a close,there might be a few of you out there who have some old equipment you'd like to see go to a good home.If that's the ease you can get in touch with the school via their website www.zanskarski school.org.
【小題1】What's the purpose in writing the text?

A.To raise money to develop this area
B.To attract more tourists to the area
C.To appeal to more locals to attend the school
D.To ask people to give away their skis to the school
【小題2】The local people don't use skiing to go about because             .
A.it is against the local custom
B.they don't have the wood to make skis
C.trees are in the way of the skiing route
D.it is dangerous to go skiing in this region
【小題3】 Who would be the most helpful to the school now?
A.People having old skiing equipment.
B.Students in the Zanskar Ski School
C.Locals in Zanskar region
D.Tavellers enjoying skiing
【小題4】What can be the best title for the text?
A.An extraordinary region in India
B.A home for old skis
C.A good means of transport
D.A popular sport—skiing

Walking down a path through some woods in Georgia, I saw a small pool of water ahead on the path. I angled my direction to go around it on the part of the path that wasn't covered by water or mud. As I reached the pool, I was suddenly attacked!
Yet I did nothing for the attack. It was so unpredictable and from somewhere totally unexpected. I was surprised as well as unhurt though I had been struck four or five times. I backed up a foot and my attacker stopped attacking me. Had I been hurt I wouldn't have found it amusing. And I was laughing. After all, I was being attacked by a butterfly!
Having stopped laughing, I took a step forward. My attacker rushed me again. He charged towards me at full speed, attempting to hurt me but in vain. For a second time, I took a step backwards while my attacker paused. I wasn't sure what to do. After all, it’s just not every day that one is attacked by a butterfly. I stepped back to look the situation over. My attacker moved back to land on the ground. That's when I discovered why my attacker was charging me only moments earlier. He had a mate and she was dying.
Sitting close beside her, he opened and closed his wings as if to fan her. I could only admire the love and courage of that butterfly in his concern for his mate. He had taken it up on himself to attack me for his mate’s sake, even though she was clearly dying and I was so large. He did so just to give her those extra few precious moments of life. Should I have been careless enough to step on her? His courage in attacking something thousands of times larger and heavier than himself just for his mate’s safety seemed admirable. I couldn’t do anything other than reward him by walking on the more difficult side of the pool. He had truly earned those moments to be with her, undisturbed.
Since then, I’ve used that butterfly’s courage as an inspiration and to remind myself that good things are worth fighting for.
【小題1】The writer changed his direction while walking down a path because he wanted_______.

A.to get close to a butterfly
B.to escape a sudden attack
C.to look over the bad situation
D.to avoid getting his shoes dirty
【小題2】From the passage we can learn that the attacker _________.
A.struck the author four or five times and made him badly hurt
B.paused until the author took a step backwards
C.thought it was the author who caused the death of his mate
D.a(chǎn)ttacked the author for his mate’s safety and to accompany her for the last moments of life
【小題3】 From this experience the man learned_____.
A.butterflies are brave insects
B.the small can defeat the large
C.how to deal with challenges in his life
D.people should try their best to fight for everything
【小題4】Which of the following words can best describe the butterfly?
A.caringB.a(chǎn)mbitious
C.courageousD.a(chǎn)ggressive

One day, when I was working as a psychologist in England,an adolescent boy showed up in my office. It was David. He kept walking up and down restlessly, his face pale, and his hands shaking slightly. His head teacher had referred him to me. “This boy has lost his family,” he wrote. “He is understandably very sad and refuses to talk to others, and I'm very worried about him. Can you help?”
I looked at David and showed him to a chair. How could I help him? There are problems psychology doesn't have the answer to, and which no words can describe. Sometimes the best thing one can do is to listen openly and sympathetically.
The first two times we met, David didn't say a word. He sat there, only looking up to look at the children's drawings on the wall behind me. I suggested we play a game of chess. He nodded. After that he played chess with me every Wednesday afternoon—in complete silence and without looking at me. It's not easy to cheat in chess, but I admit I made sure David won once or twice.
Usually, he arrived earlier than agreed, took the chess board and pieces from the shelf and began setting them up before I even got a chance to sit down. It seemed as if he enjoyed my company. But why did he never look at me?
“Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with,” I thought. “Perhaps he senses that I respect his suffering.” Some months later, when we were playing chess, he looked up at me suddenly.
“It's your turn,” he said.
After that day, David started talking. He got friends in school and joined a bicycle club. He wrote to me a few times, about his biking with some friends, and about his plan to get into university. Now he had really started to live his own life.
Maybe I gave David something. But I also learned that one—without any words—can reach out to another person. All it takes is a hug, a shoulder to cry on, a friendly touch, and an ear that listens.
【小題1】When he first met the author, David ________.

A.felt a little excited B.walked energetically 
C.looked a little nervous D.showed up with his teacher 
【小題2】As a psychologist, the author   ________.
A.was ready to listen to David 
B.was skeptical about psychology 
C.was able to describe David's problem 
D.was sure of handling David's problem 
【小題3】David enjoyed being with the author because he________.
A.wanted to ask the author for advice 
B.needed to share sorrow with the author 
C.liked the children's drawings in the office 
D.beat the author many times in the chess game 
【小題4】What can be inferred about David?
A.He recovered after months of treatment. 
B.He liked biking before he lost his family. 
C.He went into university soon after starting to talk. 
D.He got friends in school before he met the author.

I am a writer. I spend a great deal of my time thinking about the power of language—the way it can evoke (喚起) an emotion, a visual image, a complex idea, or a simple truth.Language is the tool of my trade. And I use them all—all the Englishes I grew up with.
Born into a Chinese family that had recently arrived in California, I’ve been giving more thought to the kind of English my mother speaks. Like others, I have described it to people as “broken” English. But I feel embarrassed to say that. It has always bothered me that I can think of no way to describe it other than“broken”, as if it were damaged and needed to be fixed, as if it lacked a certain wholeness. I’ve heard other terms used, “l(fā)imited English,” for example. But they seem just as bad, as if everything is limited, including people’s perceptions(認(rèn)識(shí))of the limited English speaker.
I know this for a fact, because when I was growing up, my mother’s “l(fā)imited” English limited my perception of her. I was ashamed of her English. I believed that her English reflected the quality of what she had to say. That is, because she expressed them imperfectly her thoughts were imperfect. And I had plenty of evidence to support me: the fact that people in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her.
I started writing fiction in 1985. And for reasons I won’t get into today, I began to write stories using all the Englishes I grew up with: the English she used with me, which for lack of a better term might be described as “broken” ; and what I imagine to be her translation of her Chinese, her internal (內(nèi)在的) language, and for that I sought to preserve the essence, but neither an English nor a Chinese structure. I wanted to catch what language ability tests can never show: her intention, her feelings, the rhythms of her speech and the nature of her thoughts.
【小題1】. The author used to think of her mother’s English as   .

A.impoliteB.a(chǎn)musing    
C.imperfectD.practical
【小題2】. Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 3?
A.Americans do not understand broken English.
B.The author’s mother was not respected sometimes.
C.The author’s mother had positive influence on her.
D.Broken English always reflects imperfect thoughts.
【小題3】 The author gradually realizes her mother’s English is   .
A.well structuredB.in the old style
C.easy to translateD.rich in meaning
【小題4】 What is the passage mainly about?
A.The change of the author’s attitude to her mother’s English.
B.The limitation of the author’s perception of her mother.
C.The author’s misunderstanding of “l(fā)imited” English.
D.The author’s experiences of using broken English.

Steven Spielberg was not  a scholar, and his classmates teased him. Rather than read,  the kid really preferred running around with an 8mm camera, shooting home­made movies, which he showed to friends for a small fee.
In his first year of high school, he dropped out. But  when his parents persuaded him to return, he was mistakenly placed in a learning­disabled class, which lasted one  month. Only when the family moved to another town did he  land up in a more suitable high school, where he eventually  graduated.
After being denied entrance into a traditional film­making school, Steven Spielherg enrolled in English at California State University at Long Beach. Then in 1965, he  recalls, in one of those serendipitous moments, his life  took a complete turn. Visiting Universal Studios, he met  Chuck Silvers, an executive in the editorial department. Silvers liked the kid who made 8mm films and invited him  back sometime to visit.
He appeared the next day. Spielberg, dressed in a dark  suit, carrying his father's briefcase with nothing inside but  a sandwich and candy bars walked confidently up to the  guard at the gate of Universal and gave him a casual wave.  The guard waved back. He was in.
“For the entire summer,” Spielberg remembers, “I  dressed in my suit and hung out with the directors and  writers, including Silvers, who knew the kid wasn't a studio employee, but winked at him. I even found an office  that wasn't being used, and became a squatter (擅自占用他人房子的人). I bought some plastic tiles and put my  name  in  the  building  directory:  Steven  Spielberg,  Room 23C.”
It paid off for everyone. Ten years later, the 28­year­old Spielberg directed Jaws, which took in $470 million,   then the biggest grossing movie of all time. Dozens of films   and awards have followed because Steven Spielberg knew   what his teachers didn't—talent is in the eyes of the filmmaker.
【小題1】Why was Steven Spielberg laughed at by his classmates?

A.He was the youngest boy.
B.He was too short for his age.
C.He liked to fight with other boys.
D.He didn't care much about his lessons.
【小題2】Why did Steven's friends pay him some money?
A.To see his movies.
B.To use his camera.
C.To look at his photos.
D.To include them in the movie.
【小題3】What did Steven Spielberg intend to do after graduating     from high school?
A.Study English at a college.
B.Become a newspaper editor.
C.Work for Universal Studios.
D.Go to a traditional film­making school.
【小題4】What could have changed Steven Spielberg's life?
A.Being dressed in a suit.
B.Meeting Chuck Silvers.
C.Missing a film­making school.
D.Working for Universal Studios.
【小題5】What can we learn from the story?
A.Always follow our dream and we can make it.
B.We need someone to help us realize our dreams.
C.Anyone can become a film director if he wants to.
D.We should grasp the opportunity that comes our way.
