I have a friend named Monty who owns a horse ranch (ÄÁ³¡). One day, he told me a story.

¡°There was a young man who was the son of a horse ______. His father had to go from their house to ranch, training horses.¡±

¡°One day, the boy*s teacher asked the students to ______ a paper about what they wanted to be and do when they grew up.

There¡¯s no way you could ever do it.¡¯ Then the teacher ______, ¡®If you rewrite this paper with a more realistic dream, I will give you a more realistic ______.¡±¡¯

¡°The boy went home and asked his father what he should do. His father said, ¡®Look, son, you have to make your own ______.¡±¡¯

¡°Finally, the boy ______ the same paper, making no change at all. He said, ¡®You ______ keep the F and I¡¯ll keep my dream.¡±¡¯

Monty then looked at me and said, ¡°I tell you this story ______ you are sitting in ray 4, 000- square-foot house in the middle of my 200-acre horse ranch.¡± He continued, ¡°Two summers ago, the ______ teacher brought 30 kids to camp out on ray ranch for a week.

Scientists around the world have been studying the warming of waters in the Pacific Ocean known as El Nino(¶ò¶ûÄáŵ). The appearance of El Nino is known to affect the weather around the world. Scientists still do not completely understand it. Yet they now find they can use it to tell about the future in different areas of the world.

One example is the work of two scientists at Columbia University in New York, Mark Cane and Gordon Eshel. A scientist of Zimbabwe, Roger Buckland worked with them. They have found that when El Nino appears, Zimbabwe has little or no rain. This means corn crops in Zimbabwe are poor. The last El Nino was in 1991 to 1993. That was when southeastern Africa suffered a serious lack of rain.

The scientists wrote about their recent work in the publication Nature. Their computer program can tell when an El Nino will develop up to a year before it does. They suggest that this could provide an effective early warning system for southern Africa, and could prevent many people from starving.

1.El Nino is known as ___.

A. the changing of the weather in southern Africa

B. the warming of waters in the Pacific Ocean

C. the weather which brings drought(ºµÔÖ) to Africa

D. the weather phenomenon (ÏÖÏó)that brings heavy rains to Africa

2.Scientists study El Nino in order that ___.

A. they can provide a kind of early warning to the place that will suffer from drought

B. they can tell why Zimbabwe has little or no rain

C. they can do some research work in this field.

D. they can put all this information into their computers.

3.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

B. Three scientists from the USA work on this subject.

C. Southern Africa suffered a serious drought and many people died from hunger.

D. El Nino has something to do with Zimbabwe¡¯s poor crops.

4.What¡¯s the best title for this passage?

A. Appearance of El Nino is Predictable£¨¿ÉÔ¤²âµÄ£© B. Drought in Zimbabwe

¡¾2017ËÄ´¨¹ãÔªÊжþÄ£¡¿Now I want to tell you something what happened last weekend. On my way to the cinema, I noticed a foreigner talk to a policemen who seemed able to understand what the foreigner was saying. They two looked very worriedly. So I went up to see what I could do help them. I told the policeman the foreigner had lost his wallet or camera. Finally the foreigner got back his belonging with the help of the policeman. All of them thanked me. By the time I arrived at the cinema, the film have been over. Although I¡¯d missed the film, but I was very happy because I had helped others with my efforts.

Reader: For six years, I¡¯ve run an office that has two employees: me and my boss. He used to be so appreciative that I didn¡¯t mind doing a little extra, but about two months ago, he started being rude and demanding. Now he even yells when I don¡¯t have time to bring his favorite wine to his home after work.

This change started when we met a wealthy new customer, who is a huge jerk (¹Å¹ÖµÄÈË) -- my boss¡¯s new behavior is just like his.

My boss is a good man; he and his family have treated me like a little sister. Is there a good way to discuss this with him?

Karla: Sounds like your new customer has set a bad example to your boss. You need to remind your boss that you¡¯re in his corner-- but you¡¯re not his slave. My suggestions are as follows.

Start with a simple question in a calm moment: ¡°Is everything okay?¡±

State the truth: ¡°Until recently, I¡¯ve felt like a valued teammate. But our relationship has become tense. Your expectations of me seem to have changed. Although I used to do occasional personal businesses for you as a favor, now it seems expected.¡±

Draw your lines: ¡°If you think my job description needs to change or my performance is not good enough, let¡¯s discuss that. Otherwise, I need you to stop yelling at me and to respect my personal time.¡±

Ideally, you¡¯ll get an apology and a promise to do better. After that, it¡¯s a matter of reinforcement (¼ÓÇ¿) . If he starts yelling, look at him with a calm expression. After he cools down, restate his request and add, ¡°Is that correct?¡± For the unreasonable request, such as fetching his favorite wine after work: ¡°I¡¯m afraid I can¡¯t take care of that for you.¡± If he keeps acting like a jerk, there are bosses out there who will better respect your time and talent.

Emily did not look like other infants£¨Ó׶ù£©when she was born.She had a distinct appearance facially,standing out among the other babies in the hospital.She was born with Apert Syndrome,which affects physical appearance in several ways.I was first introduced to many of the facts of this rare Syndrome when Emily's mother came in to speak to me a few days before first grade.

Now Emily found herself in a new school,with unfamiliar classmates.I noticed a little girl's startled expression as she focused on Emily.Emily smiled at the child and the little girl smiled back.The first lime my teaching aide had to leave the room,a child jumped up and asked if she could help Emily.This girl stood over Emily,dotting words and sentences for her trace,exactly as her aide did each morning.A cute redheaded girl often stared into space rarely completing required tasks.Then one day she volunteered to help Emily.

Then came that day in March when Emily's mom told me she was to have facial surgery.I had to explain her absence.I was asked many logical questions."Did it hurt?" "Will she come back?"

Emily's hospital conduct further illustrated her excellent bravery.She told her father,"I do not want you to carry me into the operating room."She explained to the attending nurse that she did not want any medicine and didn't want to wear the blue operating room cap or change into hospital clothes.Emily walked into the operating room on her own feet!

It was inevitable that some of the children would see Emily after her operation,before she came to school for a visit.I had to explain that she was wearing something that looked like a catcher's mask on her face.Some visited her at home.Each child who saw her came to school greeted the class by shouting,"I saw Emily!"my first-graders had the ability to perceive the heart of Emily and I feel certain that she will continue to use her remarkable£¨·Ç·²µÄ£© strength of character to overcome the struggles she has yet to face.

People living in the country enjoy several advantages that people living in the city cannot enjoy.

They are in close contact (½Ó´¥) with nature. They make friends with trees and stones. They breathe fresh air. They fight with strong winds. They listen to the song of birds. This contact with nature is good for health.

Because of the absence of cars, one can walk more freely in the country than in the city. There are no rules of the road nor traffic signs to obey. People living in the country can easily get fresh vegetables, fresh fruit and fresh milk, and they get them at lower prices than in the city. Country life is economical (½Ú¼óµÄ) in other ways, too. There are practically no temptations to waste money.

Country people are mostly honest. They say what they mean, and make and keep promises with sincerity (³ÏÒâ). They do not put on air (°Ú¼Ü×Ó). They do not pretend to have those ridiculous (»ÄÃýµÄ) manners which are necessary in what we call polite society.
