One summer night, on my way home from work I decided to see a movie. I knew the theatre would be air-conditioned and I couldn't face my  1 apartment.

Sitting in the theatre I had to look through the  2 between the two tall heads in front of me. I had to keep changing the  3 every time she leaned over to talk to him,  4 he leaned over to kiss her. Why do Americans display (展示) such 5 in a public place?

I thought the movie would be good for my English, but  6 it turned out, it was an Italian movie.

7  about an hour I decided to give up on the movie and 8  on my popcorn. I've never understood why they give you so much popcorn! It tasted pretty good,   9  . After a while I heard  10 more of the romantic-sounding Italians. I just heard the 11 of the popcorn crunching (咀嚼) between my teeth. My thought started to 12  . I remembered when I was in South Korea, I  13 to watch Kojak on TV frequently. He spoke perfect Korean-I was really amazed. He seemed like a good friend to me,  14 I saw him again in New York speaking 15 English instead of perfect Korean. He didn't even have a Korean accent and I   16 like I had been betrayed(欺骗). When our family moved to the United States six years ago, none of us spoke any English.  17 we had begun to learn a few words, my mother suggested that we all should speak English at home. Everyone agreed, but our house became very  18  and we all seemed to avoid each other. We sat at the dinner table in silence, preferring that to 19 a difficult language. Mother tried to say something in English but it  20  out all wrong and we all burst into laughter and decid-ed to forget it! We've been speaking Korean at home ever since.

  When your pet is sick, you know it needs medication.But pets, like babies, don't know the pill you want them to take will help them.  1   Here are some tips to help get your pet to take liquid medicine.

    2   If the answer is yes, then your easiest path is to mix it with canned food.First give your hungry pet a small amount of canned food without the medication.It's important that the pet nibbles(一点一点地吃)at the food and sees that there's nothing wrong.

  Next, while the pet is still hungry, mix the medication in a small amount food and present it.Repeat as necessary to get the entire dose(剂量)down.  3   If the pet decides not to finish the meal, the dose will be wasted.

  If the chemist says the medication cannot be taken with food, you need a syringe(注射器)or a dropper(滴管)to get the liquid down your pet's throat.

    4   Keep a cheerful tone in your voice so the pet doesn't sense your stress or hesitation.Position your pet where it cannot run away, perhaps having a dog sit with his back against a wall or chair-or a cat on your lap.

    5   Use your other hand to insert the syringe or dropper between the cheek and back teeth.Slowly squeeze the medication so the pet won't choke.Try to keep your pet's mouth closed for approximately 30 seconds until you see it has swallowed.If your pet is being obstinate(倔强的), stroke(抚摸)its throat gently or blow on the face.

  Be sure you end the session with praise and perhaps a treat so your pet will not associate medication with a bad experience.

A.Before you call your pet in, be sure to have the medication and any other materials you’ll need ready.

B.Once the pet is in position, use one hand to gently open the pet's mouth from above, tilting back the head slightly.

C.Ask the vet if the liquid medication can be given with food.

D.You should know the reason why the pet refuses to take medicine.

E.Never mix the medication with the full meal.

F.They just know it smells funny and they don't want it.

G.Don't force your pet to swallow all the medicine.

  TUVALU, a tiny country in the Pacific Ocean, has asked for help as it fears it will be swallowed up by the sea.Storms and huge waves are a constant threat and none of Tuvalu's nine little islands is more than five meters above sea level, Salt water is already entering the country's drinking water supply, as well as damaging plants that produce fruit and vegetable.  1  

    2  .Venice, a historic city in Italy best known for its canals, has sunk about 24 cm over the past 100 years.Experts say that it will have sunk another 20-50cm by 2050.A century ago, St.Mark's Square, the lowest point in the city, floodedd about nine times a year, Nowadays, it happens more than 100 times.While Venice is slowly sinking into the mud on which it stands, Tuvalu's rising sea level is caused by global warming.

  The average global temperature has increased by almost 0.5 centigrade degrees over the past century; scientists expect it to rise by extra 1-3 degrees over the next 100 years.

  Warmer weather makes glaciers melt, adding more water to the ocean.The warmer temperatures also make water expand, so it takes up more space, causing the sea level to rise.The sea level has risen about 10-25 cm in the last 100 years.

    3  .Through burning coal, oil and gas, people have been increasing the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, such as CO2.This adds to the power of the greenhouse effect, making the planet even warmer.

  Many scientists believe that, if the warming is not stopped, there will be huge climate changes.  4  

    5  , the sea will swallow up millions of homes and the world will be flooded with “climate refugees” looking for somewhere to live.

A.The main cause of global warming is human pollution

B.Should this come true

C.Without urgent help, the country's days are numbered.

D.But Tuvalu is not the first place to face sinking into the sea

E.The sea level could rise by one meter this century.

F.people face a lot of pollution.

G.much has been done about our planet.

  One day a few years ago we had an uninvited guest.In fact, this uninvited guest was a bird-a(n)  1   , to be more precise.(精确地)

  “What's that? ” I asked when I first heard the thump(重击声).“It sounds like Joe is outside playing basketball, ” my wife, Anita, said.She paused and   2   more carefully.“It's coming from the   3   , ” she said.“Maybe it's one of the little   4   ”.

  We rushed out the door.Jonathan, our youngest, was easy to make   5  .“If he's making holes in the wall again…” I said as I searched there.No children at all.But there was that   6   again, coming the right up there.

  And that's when I   7   the sparrow.It was flying   8   just inches below the ceiling.It was clearly trying to   9   , but couldn't see that the way out wasn't up, but down and out through the open   10  .So the bird continued beating its wings and hitting its head against the   11  

  “Poor thing, ” Anita said.“It must be   12  .”

  “Well, maybe it's because of me, ” I said as I moved toward it.I tried to show the bird how to glide(滑翔)down a few feet so it could get outside,   13   that only seemed to frighten it more.

  “Why don't we just   14   for a few minutes, ” Anita suggested.“I'm sure he'll   15   at last.”

  So we went back into the house, where we continued to hear the ongoing struggle.Then suddenly, it was   16  .We looked into the garage, and our uninvited guest was   17  

  “See? ” Anita said.“I told you he would make it.”

  “Yeah, ” I said.“But how many knocks on the head did it   18   him? ”

  I’ve thought about that little sparrow through the years.Just like that sparrow, we often meet situations we don't know how to   19  .Born to go upward, we don't   20   consider the possibility that something good might happen if we stop flapping(拍打)around and just glide down a little bit.
