When I was going home to India last year, I called up my mother to ask if she wanted anything from China.

When India had not opened up its markets to the world, I carried suitcase loads of dark glasses and jeans. Thankfully, we can get all these anywhere in India now.

Still, her answer surprised me: “Green tea.”

As long as I can remember she didn’t even drink Indian tea..

I dutifully bought a big packet of Longjing and headed home to hear the story.My mother and her brother, both regular newspaper readers, believed that Chinese green tea was the wonder drug for all illnesses.

At the turn of the century, China was not really familiar to the average Indian.It was a strange country.

How things change! And how soon! Now every town of any size seems to have a “China Market”.And everyone is talking about China.The govemment of Indin has planned to send a team to China to see how things are done. A minister once said that India must open the doors for more foreign investment (投资)and such a step would “work wonders as it did for China”.

But it’s a two-way street.I just heard about a thousand Shenzhen office workers who have gone to Bangalore to train in software.Meanwhile, all the Indian IT majors are setting up a strong presence in China.

No wonder that trade, which was only in the millions just ten years ago, is expected to hit about US $15 billion for last year and US $20 billion by 2008, a goal set by both governments.

No wonder, my colleague wrote some weeks ago about this being the Sino-Indian(中印)century as the two countries started on January 1 the Sino-Indian Friendship Year.

But what is still a wonder to me is my mother drinking Chinese tea.

The reason why the writer’s mother asked for Chinese green tea is that________.

     A. she had a son working in China     B. she believed it had a curing effect

     C. she enjoyed Chinese products       D. she was tired of Indian tea

     A. The exchanges between Indian and China benefit both.

     B. China and India have different traffic rules.

     C. Tea trade works wonders in both India and China.

     D. Chinese produces are popular in both China and India.

It was graduation day at the university where I work and a beautiful day quite unlike the first graduation I attended as a young professor. On that cold day years ago, as we watched the students walking into the hall, one of my colleagues(同事)turned to me and said, “Graduation will be one of the happiest and one of the saddest time of your life.” At my request, he answered, “Because the students you have got to know have to leave.”
As years went by, my previous confusion about my colleague’s words no longer existed. When I came across naughty students, I had to rethink why I chose to be a teacher. It obviously isn’t the money. Once a former computer science student of mine called me, asking me if I wanted to have a change. He was working at Nintendo Corporation. His salary was higher than my present one, though I have more education and have worked for over 10 years. With my programming skills, he said he could get me hired, I thanked him, but refused his kind offer.
A few days before this graduation, while working on final grades, I found a note a student had slipped in with her homework. She thanked me for being her teacher and said the things she had learned in my class – not about math, but about life – would be things she would remember long after the math skills had faded away. As I finished reading, I remembered why I had become a teacher.
Now, on this sunny graduation day, as I again observed the sea of blue hats and gowns, I did so with a deeper sense of satisfaction – I will always be grateful that I am a teacher.
【小题1】Hearing his colleague’s description of graduation for the first time, the author ______.

A.quite agreed with his colleagueB.was very puzzled
C.thought it very funnyD.was very sad
【小题2】The computer science student called the author because he ______.
A.wanted to inform the author of his present job
B.wanted the author to share his joy and satisfaction
C.tried to persuade the author to work with him
D.thought the author wasn’t fit to be a teacher
【小题3】The underlined phrase blue hats and gowns refers to ______.
A.the new graduatesB.the university colleagues
C.life memoriesD.decorations in the hall
【小题4】We can learn from the text that the author ______.
A.was only a young professor
B.didn’t do well in his work
C.taught his students more about life than math
D.was content with the job as a teacher

Nowadays, a cellphone service is available to everyone, everywhere. Probably thousands of people have already been using it, but I just discovered it, so I'm going to claim it and also name it: Fake Foning.

The technology has been working well for me at the office, but there are infinite(无限的) applications. Virtually in any public space.

Say you work at a big university with lots of talky faculty members buzzing about. Now, say you need to use the restroom. The trip down the hall will take approximately one hour, because a person can't walk into those talky people without getting pulled aside for a question, a bit of gossip, a new read on a certain line of Paradise Lost.

So, a cellphone. Any cellphone. Just pick it up. Don't dial. Just hold that phone to your face and start talking. Walk confidently down the hall engaged in fake conversation, making sure to tailor both the topic and content to the person standing before you whom you are trying to avoid.

For standard colleague avoidance, I suggest fake chatting about fake business:

"Yes, I'm glad you called, because we really need to hammer out the details. What's that? Yes, I read Page 12, but if you look at the bottom of 4, I think you can see the problem begins right there."

Be engaged in your fake fone conversation. Make eye contact with the people passing, nod to them, gesture keen interest in talking to them at a later time, point to your phone, shrug and move on.

Shoppers should consider fake foning anytime they spot a talky neighbor in the produce department pinching (用手捏) unripe peaches. Without your phone at your face, you'd be in for a 20-minute speech on how terrible the world is.

One important caution about fake foning. The other day I was fake foning my way past a colleague, and he was actually following me to get my attention. I knew he wanted to ask about a project I had not yet finished. I was trying to buy myself some time, so I continued fake foning with my doctor. "So I don't need the operation? Oh, doctor, that is the best news."

And then: Brrrrrrng! Brrrrrmg! Brrrrrmg! My phone started ringing, right there while it was planted on my face. My colleague looked at me, and I at him, and naturally I gasped. "What is the matter with this thing?" I said, pulling the phone away to look at it, and then putting it back to my ear.

"Hello? Are you still there?"  Oops.

1.According to the passage Fake Foning is _______________________.

A.a strategy to avoid people                 B.a device newly produced

C.a service provided everywhere             D.a skill of communication

2.In the author's opinion, in order to make fake foning look real one has to__________________.

A.talk about interesting matters              B.behave politely to people passing by

C.hold the phone while walking              D.appear absorbed in conversation

3.What does the last example show?

A.One effective way is to fake fone one's doctor.

B.One has to be careful while fake foning.

C.Fake foning may not cheat people.

D.Fake foning is always quite successful.

4.After his phone suddenly began ringing, the author___________________.

A.immediately started talking to the caller

B.immediately started talking to his colleague

C.put the phone away and stopped talking

D.continued with his fake conversation

5.What is the tone of the passage?

A.Critical.           B.Humorous.         C.Serious.           D.Unclear.

I sometimes wonder if old Finchley has the right personality to be a research scientist. He keeps asking when he’ll be coming back. After all, it was his own fault. Nobody tries out what has just been invented on themselves any more but Finchley. Well, he must have pumped about a thousand cubic centimeters into himself before I noticed he was clearly becoming smaller.

  It was funny watching him, because his clothes remained the same in size. They simply piled up around him so that he looked like a small boy in his father’s clothes. But he kept getting smaller and smaller. As my colleague Dawson and I watched him, he disappeared! All we could see was Finchley’s clothes on the floor. They looked so strange, because the lab coat was on top, shirt and trousers inside and, I suppose, underclothes inside again. It gave me a strange feeling, and I think Dawson was a bit shaken, too.

  Dawson was sitting on his chair in front of a microscope he’d been using to examine a family of mites(螨虫). He looked through the scope kind of absently again, and was nearly scared to lose awareness when he found old Finchley waving back from the other end.

  It seems as if Finchley had taken a free ride on a dust mite and landed on the land of the mite family. Of course, we didn’t know till Finchley told us later. But anyhow, as I said, Dawson nearly passed out. He jumped off his chair and pointed at the microscope, too shocked to speak.

1. Finchley disappeared because ________.

 A. he took something poisonous      

B. he was changed into a dust mite

   C. his father’s clothes totally covered him up

 D. what he and his colleagues invented resulted in his disappearance

2. It frightened Dawson to see Finchley _______.

 A. got into his scope by accident   B. was waving through his telescope

   C. suddenly got lost in his clothes      D. gradually disappeared in the lab

3. It can be inferred that Finchley, Dawson and the writer have possibly invented _____.

 A. some kind of medicine             B. a new powerful microscope

   C. a machine to make people small    D. a new way to make a culture of mite

4.It can probably be concluded that Finchley ________.

   A. passed out there and then         B. is not fit to be a scientist

   C. is a devoted scientist            D. will remain tiny all the time
