It was a very cold evening, an old man was waiting for a ride across the river. He saw several horsemen pass by but he didn’t ask for any help. The wait seemed 31 (end). Then came another rider, the old man 32 (catch) his eye and said, “Sir, would you mind doing me a favor?”
Stopping his horse, he replied, “Of course.” Almost 33 (freeze), the old man could not get 34 the ground. The horseman helped him onto his horse. He took the o1d man not just across the river, 35 to his home.
“Sir, you didn’t even ask the other riders for help, why? What 36 I had said ‘no’ and 1eft you there?” the horseman asked.
The old man looked at him straight in the eyes and said, “I looked into their eyes, I found they didn’t care, 37 told me it would be useless, but when I looked into 38 , I saw kindness.”
These words touched the rider deeply. “Thank you for 39 you’ve said, I hope I will never be too busy to help others.” With that, Thomas Jefferson, the 40 (three) president of the US, turned his horse around and went away.

Bicycles are very popular around the world today. People ride their bicycles for exercise and enjoyment. In some places, people use a bicycle to get to work. In other places, bicycle riding is a very popular exercise to people who live in cities. But who invented the first bicycle?
In 1791, a Frenchman named Comte de Siverac invented and owned the first bicycle. Mrs. Sivrac rode the bicycle in Paris. The handles(把手) and the seat were wooden. This bicycle was very difficult to move. A rider even had to pick up the front wheel to change direction. Finally, the bicycle had no brakes for stopping or pedals for the feet! Riding a bicycle was a great risk!
In 1817, a German named Baron von Draus de Sauerbrun made the first bicycle better. The seat became more comfortable. The wheel could now change direction. His ride in the forest took only one hour instead of three hours on foot, which surprised people at that time.
Sauerbrun brought this kind of bicycle from Germany to France. Then Denis Johnson, an Englishman, made a bicycle for women. It had spaces for their dresses to hang down. But these bicycles still had no brakes or pedals, and riders often got hurt. These bicycles and the people who rode them were not very popular.
It took another forty-five years for the bicycle to become popular. More than 100 years later, bicycle riding is more popular than ever. In fact, in India and China, there are still many more bicycles than cars.

Language learning begins with listening. Some linguists say children are greatly different 31 the amount of listening that they do before they start speaking, and later starters are often long listeners. Most 32 will “obey” spoken instructions some time before they can speak, though the word “obey” is hardly accurate as 33 description of the eager and delighted cooperation usually shown by the children. Before they can speak, many children will also ask questions by gestures and by making questioning noises.
Any attempt 34 (study) the development from the noises babies make to their first spoken words leads to 35 (consider) difficulties. It is agreed that they enjoy making noises, and that during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves as 36 (particular) expressive as delight, pain, friendliness, and so on. 37 since these can’t be said to show the baby’s intention to communicate, they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language. It is agreed, too, that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment, and that by six months they are able to add new words to 38 store. This self-imitation(模仿) 39 (contribute) to deliberate imitation of sounds or words spoken to them by other people. The problem then arises as to the point at 40 one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech.

Most people who travel from China to the US find that,despite having studied English for years,they have to “re—learn” it upon arriving.
Words that we learned in English classes are not pronounced the same way here.To truly be part of the “melting pot”,fluency(流利)in English is not enough.You need an accent to stand out.
When I first came to the US for graduate school,1 was a nervous foreigner.I felt so out of place that I wanted to hide everything about me that was “different”.To talk like an American became one of my goals.
During my first term as a teaching assistant(TA),my students complained(抱怨) they could not understand me.I learned later from a study that this complaint was common among US students with an international TA.It is called the “Oh, no!” syndrome (情绪、举动):“Oh,no! Not another international TA,and not that accent again!’’
So I imitated(模仿)the way native speakers talk and,over time,I made such good progress that American friends started to praise my English as having “almost no accent’’.I took this as a sign of my success.Ever since.people have often mistaken me for someone from many places:the Midwest,the West Coast,China,Japan,South Korea.Most frequently,people think I am from California.
Suddenly,conformity (一致) was no longer a praise:If I talk like an American,am I still Chinese? If I lose my Chinese accent,do I also lose my cultural identity? Am I denying(否认)my past by being absorbed into(沉浸于)a new culture?
Now I realize that a person’s accent is a permanent(永久的)record of their past cultural experience and it is a mark of one’s experience and exposure to different cultures.
As a fourth-year student in the US,I am no longer a nervous foreigner.My nervousness has been replaced by a desire to hold on to my cultural origins.Now I consciously(有意识地)add some Chinese “accent” when I speak.I do not wish to speak “perfect” English because I am proud of who I am.
