    On his bench in Madison Square Soapy moved uneasily, and he realized the fact that the time had come for him to provide against the coming winter.

    The winter ambitions of Soapy were not of the highest. In them there were no dreams of Mediterranean voyages or blue Southern skies. Three months on the Island was what his soul desired. Three months of assured board and bed and good company, safe from north winds seemed to Soapy the most desirable thing.

    Just as the more fortunate New Yorkers had bought their tickets to Palm Beach each winter, Soapy had made his arrangements for his annual journey to the Island. And now the time had come.

    There were many institutions of charity in New York where he might receive lodging and food, but to Soapy’s proud spirit the gifts of charity were undesirable. You must pay in humiliation of spirit for everything received at the hands of mercy. So it was better to be a guest of the law.

    Soapy, having decided to go to the Island, at once set about accomplishing his desire. He left his bench and went up Broadway. He stopped at the door of a glittering cafe. He was shaven and his coat was decent. If he could reach a table in the restaurant, the portion of him that would show above the table would raise no doubt in the waiter’s mind. A roasted duck, with a bottle of wine, a cigar and a cup of coffee would be enough. Such a dinner would make him happy, for the journey to his winter refuge.

    But as Soapy entered the restaurant door, the head waiter’s eye fell upon his shabby trousers and old shoes. Strong hands pushed him in silence and haste out into the street.

    Some other way of entering the desirable refuge must be found.

    At a corner of Sixth Avenue Soapy took a stone and sent it through the glass of a glittering shop window. People came running around the corner, a policeman at the head of them. Soapy stood still, with his hands in his pockets, and smiled at the sight of the policeman.

    “Where is the man that has done that?” asked the policeman.

    “Don’t you think that I have had something to do with it?” said Soapy, friendly.

    The policeman paid no attention to Soapy. Men who break windows don’t remain to speak with policemen. They run away. He saw a man running and rushed after him, stick in hand. Soapy, disgusted, walked along, twice unsuccessful.

    On the opposite side of the street was a restaurant for people with large appetites and modest purses. Soapy entered this place without difficulty. He sat at a table and ate beefsteak and pie. And then he told the waiter he had no money.

    “Go and call a cop,” said Soapy. “And don’t keep a gentleman waiting.”

    “No cop for you,” said the waiter. “Hey!”

    Then Soapy found himself lying upon his left ear on the pavement. He arose with difficulty, and beat the dust from his clothes. Arrest seemed a rosy dream. The Island seemed far away.

    After another unsuccessful attempt to be arrested for harassing a young woman, Soapy went further toward the district of theatres.

    When he saw a policeman standing in front of a glittering theatre, he thought of “disorderly conduct”. On the sidewalk Soapy began to sing drunken songs at the top of his voice. He danced, cried, and otherwise disturbed the peace.

    The policeman turned his back to Soapy, and said to a citizen, “It is one of the Yale boys celebrating their football victory. Noisy, but no harm.”

    Sadly, Soapy stopped his useless singing and dancing. The Island seemed unattainable. He buttoned his thin coat against the north wind.

    In a cigar store he saw a well-dressed man who had set his silk umbrella by the door. Soapy entered the store, took the umbrella, and went out with it slowly. The man with the cigar followed hastily.

    “My umbrella,” he said.

    “Oh, is it?” said Soapy. “Well, why don’t you call a policeman? I took your umbrella! Why don’t you call a cop? There stands one on the corner.”

    The umbrella owner slowed his steps. Soapy did likewise. The policeman looked at them curiously.

    “Of course,” said the umbrella man, “well, you know how these mistakes occur…if it’s your umbrella I hope you’ll excuse me – I picked it up this morning in a restaurant – if it’s yours, I hope you’ll…”

    “Of course it’s mine,” said Soapy.

    The ex-umbrella man retreated. The policeman hurried to help a well-dressed woman across the street.

    Soapy threw the umbrella angrily. He was angry with the men who wear helmets and carry clubs. They seemed to regard him as a king who could do no wrong.

    At last Soapy stopped before an old church on a quiet corner. Through one window a soft light glowed, where, the organist played a Sunday anthem. For there came to Soapy’s ears sweet music that caught and held him at the iron fence.

    The moon was shining; cars and pedestrians were few; birds twittered sleepily under the roof. And the anthem that the organist played cemented Soapy to the iron fence, for he had known it well in the days when his life contained such things as mothers and roses and ambitions and friends.

    The influence of the music and the old church produced a sudden and wonderful change in Soapy’s soul. He thought of his degraded days, dead hopes and wrecked faculties.

    And also in a moment a strong impulse moved him to battle with his desperate fate. He would pull himself out of this pit; he would make a man of himself again. Those sweet notes had set up a revolution in him. Tomorrow he would be somebody in the world. He would…

    Soapy felt a hand on his arm. He looked quickly around into the broad face of a policeman.

    “What are you doing here?”

    “Nothing.”

    “Then come along,” said the policeman.

    “Three months on the Island,” said the Judge the next morning.

    A. His pride gets in the way.

    B. What the institutions of charity offer isn’t what Soapy needs.

    C. He wants to be a citizen who obeys the law.

    How words came into being is unknown. All we assume (猜测) is that some early men invented certain sounds, in one way or another, to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could talk with each other. Later they agreed upon certain signs called letters, which could be put together to show those sounds, and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, are called words.

    The power of words, then, lies in their associations—the things they bring up to our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words bring back to us the happy and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increases.

    Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which have powerful effects on our minds and feelings. This clever use of words is what we call literary style (文体). Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can express his meaning in words which sing like music, and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them correctly, or they will make our speech silly and common.

    1.We learn from the text that language might have begun with _______.

    A. expressions B. actions C. signs D. sounds

    2.What is mainly discussed in Paragraph 2?

    A. The learning of new words.

    B. The importance of old words.

    C. The relation of human experience with words.

    D. The gradual change and development of words.

    3.In the last paragraph, what does the author suggest that we should do?

    A. Use words skillfully. B. Make musical speeches.

    C. Learn poems by heart. D. Associate with listeners.

    After a particularly busy period at work, I decided to get away from it all by going on a hike in the mountains in southern France.

    Before I left, I read an interesting story in a magazine. It read, “Once, while I was riding on a crowded bus, the man sitting next to me threw his cell phone out of the window when his phone rang. I was surprised. He looked at me, shrugged (耸耸肩) and looked away. I had no idea whether it was his or stolen or whether he even knew what a cell phone was or not, but he clearly wanted to be free of it, because it clearly troubled him. ”

    Billions of people across the world use cell phones. Though cell phones are a wonderful way for communication, they often do the exact opposite. Using cell phones can increase stress within families and friends.

    So when I recently returned home, I got rid of my cell phone. Now I go outside without taking my phone with me. I’ve noticed things in my neighborhood I never noticed before, such as gardens. I’ve met new people, started conversations with neighbors I didn’t speak to before and talked with some of my friends face to face instead of chatting over the phone.

    Instead of keeping me off from the world, stopping using my cell phone has helped me get even closer to my family and friends.

    1.According to the story, the man on the bus threw away his cell phone because ______.

    A. it didn’t work properly

    B. it was stolen from someone else

    C. he didn’t like the phone’s style

    D. he didn’t want to be bothered by it

    2.We can learn from the passage that cell phones _____.

    A. are too expensive for many people

    B. can also get people into trouble

    C. stop people from communicating face to face

    D. can make life more interesting

    3.What can we learn about the author?

    A. He wants to own a garden now.

    B. He always chatted with his neighbors.

    C. He used to take his cell phone when going outside.

    D. He once rode on a crowded bus in France.

    4.The main purpose of the passage is to _______.

    A. tell us not to let cell phones control our lives

    B. encourage others to hike with him in France

    C. share his experiences in France with us

    D. teach us how to get along with neighbors

    “Your first home,” Laurence Yep wrote in his book, The Lost Garden, “will always be the one that you remember best. I have been away from it for over twenty years, but I still go back in my dreams.” For Yep, whose father came from China, home was an apartment and the family grocery store in a neighborhood of San Francisco. It was there that he learned about patience, hard work, and getting along with neighbors.

    Mr. Brown, Laurence Yep’s high school English teacher, often set high goals for his students. He was the first person to encourage Yep to write. The experience of that class changed the direction of Yep’s life. At the age of 18 Yep published his first short story, a sci-fi fantasy. He has since written many books and many kinds of books. He has retold Chinese folk stories and written for the theater. In nearly all these varied works, Yep, who is married to the children’s book author Joanne Ryder, has returned to questions he has been asking himself since childhood: What does it mean to be Chinese and American? Can one who belongs to two cultures ever feel at home anywhere?

    When asked, “How has being of a Chinese by origin been important to you?” Laurence Yep replied, “As a child I wanted to be as American as possible. Then, in my early twenties, I became very interested in my Chinese roots. For years after that, I thought that my function as a Chinese American writer was to act as a bridge between two cultures. Now, though, I am not so sure that it is possible to join them together. Compared with Asian culture, American culture pays more attention to individuals and competition. The two cultures pull in opposite directions. So I see myself now as someone who will always be on the border between two cultures. That works to my benefit as a writer because not quite fitting in helps me be a better observer.”

    1.According to Paragraph 1, Laurence Yep _____.

    A. misses his first home very much

    B. goes back to China from time to time

    C. moved to San Francisco at an early age

    D. once worked part-time at a grocery store

    2.2We may infer from Paragraph 2 that Mr. Brown _____.

    A. asked Laurence Yep to be a good observer

    B. taught Laurence Yep the value of patience

    C. helped Laurence Yep finish his first book

    D. had high expectations of Laurence Yep

    3.The last paragraph is mainly about Laurence Yep’s _____.

    A. childhood memories

    B. varied writing styles

    C. view of the two cultures

    D. relationship with his family

    4.Which of the following best describes Laurence Yep’s attitude to life?

    A. Learn to accept your own differences.

    B. Put the needs of others ahead of your own.

    C. Work hard and you will receive many benefits.

    D. Challenge others as you would wish to be challenged.
