A boy Was born to a couple after eleven years of marriage．They were a loving couple and the boy was the apple of their eyes．When the boy was around two years old, one morning the husband saw a medicine bottle open. He was late for work so he asked the wife to cap the bottle and keep it in the cupboard．The mother, concentrated in the kitchen, totally forget the matter.

    The boy saw the bottle and playfully went to the bottle and, fascinated with its color, drank it all. It happen to be a poisonous medicine meant for adults in small dosages(剂量)．When the child fell down，the mother hurried him to the hospital，where he died． The mother was unconscious． She was terrified how to face her

husband．

    When the anxious father came to the hospital and saw the dead child，he looked at his wife and uttered just four words. What do you think were the four words? The husband just said “I love you darling．”

The hussband's totally unexpected reaction is proactive(积极主动的) behavior. The child is dead. He can never be brought back to life.  There is no point in finding fault with the mother. Besides, if only he had taken time to keep the bottle away, this would have happened. No point in attaching blame. She had also lost her only . What she needed at that moment was consolation and sympathy from the husband. That is what he gave her.

Sometimes we spend time asking who is responsible or who to blame, whether in a relationship, in a job or with the people we know. We miss out some warmth in human relationship in giving eachother support. After all, shouldn’t forgiving someone we love be the easiest thing in the world to do? Treasure what you have. Don’t increase pain and suffering by holding on to forgiveness.

If everyone can look at life with this kind of judgment, there would be much fewer problems is the world.

Take off all your envies, jealousies, unwillingness to forgive, selfishness, and fears and you will find things are actually not as difficult as you think.

The energy crisis (危机) has made people aware of how the careless use of the earth’s energy has brought the whole world to the edge of disaster. The over – development of motor transport, with its increase of more cars, more traveling, has contributed to the near – destruction of our cities and the pollution not only of local air but also of the earth’s atmosphere.

Our present situation is unlike natural disasters of the past. Worldwide energy use has brought us to a state where long – range planning is vital. What we need is not a continuation of our present serious state, which endangers the future of our country, our children, and our earth, but a movement forward in order to work rapidly and effectively on planetary problems.

This country has been falling back under the continuing exposures of loss of morality and the revelation (揭露) that lawbreaking has reached into the highest place in the land. There is a strong demand for morality to turn for the better and for some devotion that is vast enough and yet personal enough to enlist the devotion of all. In the past it has been only in a way in defense of their own country and their own benefits that people have been able to devote themselves wholeheartedly.

This is the first time that we have been asked to defend ourselves and what we hold dear in cooperation with all the other people of this planet, who share with us the same endangered air and the same endangered oceans. There is a common need to reassess our present course, to change that course and to employ new methods through which the world can survive. This is a priceless opportunity.

To grasp it, we need a widespread understanding of nature if the crisis we and the world are facing is no passing inconvenience, no byproduct of the ambitions of the oil – producing countries, no environmentalists’ only fears, no byproduct of any present system of government. What we face is the result of the invention of the last four hundred years. What we need is transformed life style. This new life style can flow directly from science and technology, but its acceptance depends on a sincere devotion to finding a higher quality of life for the world’s children and future generation.

1．Which of the following has nearly destroyed our cities?

       A．The loss of beliefs and ideas.       B．More of law – breaking.

       C．Natural disasters in many areas.      D．The rapid growth of motors.

2．By comparing past problems with present ones, the author draws our attention to the______.

       A．seriousness of this crisis            B．ineffectiveness of laws

       C．similarity of the past to the present   D．hopelessness of the situation

3．Which of the following is used as an example to show the loss of morality?

       A．Disregard for law.          B．Lack of devotion.

       C．Lack of understanding.    D．Destruction of cities.

4．The author wrote the passage in order to______.

       A．make a recommendation for a transformed life style

       B．limit ambitions of the people of the whole world

       C．demand devotion to nature and future generation

       D．encourage awareness of the decline of morality

It’s so nice to hear from her again. ______, we last met more than thirty years ago.

       A．What’s more    B．That’s to say    C．In other words  D．Believe it or not

Every afternoon hundreds of thousands of youth fill Internet cafes, switch on a game console (游戏机), or otherwise sit down to enter fantasy worlds. I’m talking about video games. These games can be fun and exciting, but we need to look out when this pastime becomes an addiction.

Games are often quite exciting and dramatic, but they generally aren’t very intellectual. We don’t learn as much from them as we would only reading a book. Spending too much time playing them can take away our study time. We need to remember that we are students first. Nothing should ever get in the way of proper studying.

Video games can also be a bad effect on younger children who may be watching. Many video games are violent and the object in most of them is to kill the other player(s). This does not send the right message to the children who need to be told that violence is not acceptable and need to be taught how to deal with situations maturely. Even if we do need to sit down and play a violent video game, we need to make sure that it is not affect the younger people around us.

Playing a computer game in our spare time is not a bad thing. Games can be a great way to relax after studying, to connect to our friends, or just to help our creativity. However, games should not become the focus of our life. We need to make sure that laying games never interferes with our studies and that we aren’t thinking about them all day. If we ever find ourselves playing them too much, we need to break the addiction. If that happens, we need to step away from the computer or television screen and learn to spend our time more productively.
