This morning, when I was walking on the streets, I saw that two travelers were reading a map, looked puzzled. It seemed that they were lost. I went up and asked what I could help them. They told me they are looking for the Temple of Heaven. I led them to nearest bus stop and advised them to take Bus No. 20, who could take them there directly. They were appreciated my help greatly. Short after that, the bus came and we waved goodbye each other.

Seeing them on the bus, we felt a kind of satisfaction.

Li Daiyu and Liu Qian were on a trip to Canada to visit their cousins on the Atlantic coast. Rather than taking the plane all the way, they took the train from west to east crossing by Canada. The thought that they could go across whole continent was exciting.

Canada is the second large country in the world. People say Vancouver is Canada’s most beautiful city surrounding by mountains and the Pacific Ocean. On the northern coast of Vancouver, it is so wet there that the trees are extremely tall, some measured over 90 meters.

That afternoon aboard the train, the cousins settled down in their seat. They manage to catch sight of some mountain goats or even a grizzly bear. They had learned where most Canadians live within 320 kilometers of the USA border and the population is only slightly over thirty million.

The "cello chair"

I have always loved the rich sound of the cello(大提琴). 【1】, as a young journalist in New York in the late 1970s, I never imagined that I could play one

One day, I【2】(mistake) knocked on the wrong door in an office building. An elderly man opened the door, and behind him were a dark cello and a【3】(wood) chair with the design of a lyre (里拉琴) on it.

For a moment, I forgot【4】I was looking for. I asked, "Do you play the cello?"

“Yes," he said. "Do you want to become one of my students?"

“Yes," I responded, almost 【5】thinking.

When I had my first lesson a few days later, I told the teacher, Heinrich Joachim, that I【6】(answer) yes on impulse(沖動)."I'm not sure whether I can be a musician, "I said. Mr. J assured me that with practice and 【7】 (devote) to the instrument, I could become【8】. I told him that I'd once had a beautiful voice, but finally I lost it. "The cello," Mr. J promised, "will give you back your voice." I bought a cello and began to go for weekly lessons. "Don't just listen to the sound. Feel it!" said Mr. J I made steady progress. I studied with him for seven years, until I got 【9】(marry).

Mr. J died in 2002. Soon afterwards, I received a special【10】from his son, Andrew - Mr. J's “cello chair".

Employees who work more than 48 hours a week are 11% more likely to over consume wine than those who work a standard week, Finnish researchers say.

The study looked at more than 300,000 people in Australia, Europe and North America. No differences were seen between men and women, says the study.

Risky wine consumption is considered as more than 14 drinks a week for women and more than 21 drinks a week for men. About 20% of Australians drink at travels that put them at the risk of life time harm from injury or disease.

Drinking wine can affect the liver(肝臟)or cause brain damage, heart disease, high blood pressure and increases the risk of many cancers.

Study author Marianna Virtanen said while wine might help reduce the stress of working long periods of time, risky consumption could lead to difficulties in the workplace, such as poor performance.

The European Union Working Time Directive makes sure that workers in EU countries have the right to work no more than 48 hours a week, including overtime.

"But many people, for example well-educated managers and professionals, work much longer hours to achieve faster promotions, income increases, and more control over work and employment, ” said Prof. Virtanen of the Finnish Institute of Occupational Health.

In Australia, it's recommended that healthy men and women drink no more than two standard drinks a day.

A.It can do damage to the brain.

B.It may bring about high blood pressure.

C.It may contribute to working overtime.

【2】From the passage, we can infer that .

A.the study was carried out all over the world

B.Australians drink more wine than Europeans

C.workers in EU countries have to work 48 hours a week

D.many people work longer hours for certain purposes

【3】What is the main idea of the passage?
