     Frankenstein's indifferent and cruel attitude makes the creature hate him and even take revenge on him．So in our real life，we should care about others around us．Let the world be full of love．

7．Some years ago，writing in my diary used to be a usual activity．I would return from school and spend the expected half hour recording the day's events，feelings，and impressions in my little blue diary．I did not really need to express my emotions by way of words，but I gained a certain satisfaction from seeing my experiences forever recorded on paper．After all，isn't accumulating memories a way of preserving the past？
When I was thirteen years old，I went on a long journey on foot in a great valley，well equipped with pens，a diary，and a camera．During the trip，I was busy recording every incident，name and place I came across．I felt proud to be spending my time productively，dutifully preserving for future generations a detailed description of my travels．On my last night there，I wandered out of my tent，diary in hand．The sky was clear and lit by the glare of the moon，and the walls of the valley looked threatening behind their screen of shadows．I automatically took out my pen…
At that point，I understood that nothing I wrote could ever match or replace the few seconds I allowed myself to experience the dramatic beauty of the valley．All I remembered of the previous few days were the dull characterizations I had set down in my diary．
Now，I only write in my diary when I need to write down a special thought or feeling．I still love to record ideas and quotations that strike me in books，or observations that are particularly meaningful．I take pictures，but not very often only of objects I find really beautiful．I'm no longer blindly satisfied with having something to remember when I grow old．I realize that life will simply pass me by if I stay behind the camera，busy preserving the present so as to live it in the future．
I don't want to wake up one day and have nothing but a pile of pictures and notes．Maybe I won't have as many exact representations of people and places； maybe I'll forget certain facts，but at least the experiences will always remain inside me．I don't live to make memories--I just live，and the memories form themselves．

6．Men are spending more and more time in the kitchen encouraged by celebrity （名人） chefs like Gordon Ramsay and Jamie Oliver，according to a report from Oxford University．
     The effect of the celebrity role models，who have given cooking a more manly picture，has combined with a more general drive towards sexual equality and men now spend more than twice the amount of time preparing meals than they did in 1961．
According to the research by Prof．Jonatahn Gershuny，who runs the Centre for Time Research at Oxford，men now spend more than half an hour a day cooking，up from just 12 minutes a day in 1961．
Prof．Gershuny said，"The man in the kitchen is part of a much wider social trend．There has been 40 years of sexual equality，but there is another 40 years probably to come．"
Women，who a generation ago spent nearly two hours a day cooking，now spend just one hour and seven minutes-a great fall，but they still spend far more time in the kitchen than men．
Some experts have named these men in aprons as"Gastrosexuals （men using cooking skills to impress friends）"，who have been inspired to pick up a kitchen knife by the success of Ramsay，Oliver as well as other male celebrity chefs such as Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall，Marco Pierre White and Keith Floyd．
"I was married in 1974．When my father came to visit me a few weeks later，I was wearing an apron when I opened the door．He laughed，"said Prof．Gershuny．"That would never happen now．"
Two-thirds of adults say that they come together to share at least three times a week，even if it is not necessarily around a kitchen or dining room table．Prof．Gershuny pointed out that the family meal was now rarely eaten by all of its members around a table-with many"family meals"in fact taken on the sofa in the sitting room，and shared by family members．"The family meal has changed a lot，and few of us eat-as I did when I was a child-at least two meals a day together as a family．But it has survived in a different format．"
8．What is one reason behind the trend that men spend more time cooking than before？A
A．The development of sexual equality campaign．
B．The influence of popular female chefs．
C．The change of female's view on cooking．
D．The improvement of cooks'status．
9．What does the author think about the time men and women spend on cooking？C

B．It will take 40 years before men spend more time at the stove than women．
C．Women spend much less time on cooking than before．
D．There is a sharp decline in the time men spend on cooking compared with 1961．
10．How did Prof．Gershuny see the family meal according to the passage？C
A．It has become a thing of the past．
B．It shouldn't be advocated in modern times．
C．It is very different from what it used to be．
D．It is beneficial to the stability of the family．

5．Last year my summer holiday was spoiled by my bringing along a modern convenience that was too convenient for my own good：the iPad．Instead of looking at nature，I checked my e-mail．Instead of paddling a small boat，I followed my Twitter feed（推特簡訊）．Instead of reading great novels，I stuck to reading four newspapers each morning．I was behaving as if I were still in the office．My body was on vacation，but my head wasn't．
    So this year I made up my mind to try something different：withdrawal from the Internet．I knew it wouldn't be easy，since I'm bad at self-control．But I was determined．I started by giving the iPad to my wife．
    The cellphone signal at our house was worse than in the past，making my attempts at cheating an experience in frustration．I was trapped，forced to go through with my plan．Largely breaking away from e-mail，Twitter and my favorite newspaper websites，I had few ways to connect to the world except for the radio-and how much radio can one listen to，really？I had to do what I had planned to do all along：read books．
    This experience has had a happy ending．With determination and the strong support of my wife，I won in my vacation struggle against the Internet，realizing finally that it was I，not the iPad，that was the problem．I knew I had won when we passed a Starbucks and my wife asked if I wanted to stop to use the Wi-Fi．"I don't need it，"I said．
    However，as we return to post-vacation life，a harder test begins：Can I continue when I'm back at work？
    There are times when the need to know what's being said right now is great．I have no intention of giving up my convenience completely．But I hope to resist the temptation to check my e-mail every five minutes，which leads to checking my Twitter feed and a website or two．
I think a vacation is supposed to help you rest your brain to become more productive．Here I hope this one worked．

4．One Saturday morning we were on our way home and decided to stop at a local gas station to get something to eat since it was a good hour and a half before we got home．We noticed a man standing outside in front of the building．You could tell that he was a homeless man．His clothes were worn and dirty，and not enough on this terrible cold day of the year．He must have not had enough money to get something to eat．The next thing I remember is a dog that walked up to the front of the building．Being a dog lover，I noticed she was part wolf and probably part German shepherd （牧羊犬）．I could tell she had been feeding puppies （小狗）．She was terribly in need of something to eat and I felt so bad for her．
I knew if she didn't eat soon，she and her puppies would not make it．We noticed people walked by and didn't even care for her．She might not have been as pretty and clean as most，but she still deserved better．We still did not do anything．But someone did．The homeless man，who I thought did not buy himself anything to eat，went into the store in front of him．And what he did brought tears to me and my wife．He brought a can of dog food with what money he may have had and fed that dog．I was so moved and walked to him and gave him all my pocket money．
I know this story isn't as moving as most stories，but it plays a great part in our lives．You see，that day was Mother's Day．And a lot of people forget that some animals are parents too．And animals as well as we are God's creations．The homeless man showed me what I should have done．I made a decision to be a better man in future．
