The old couple who lived in a cottage on the edge of the village were envied for the happiness of their marriage. They never quarreled and were always affectionate to one another. Sadly, after thirty-four years of this happiness, the husband became ill and died.
The wife was overcome with grief. Her children tried to comfort her, but to no avail. Her neighbors tried to comfort her, but with similar lack of success. Weeks and months went by, and still the woman was grieving; tears fell down her cheeks from morning till night.
Then a holy man came to the village. People told him about the woman, and asked him to try to help her. The holy man went to the woman’s house. Dressed in his rough woolen robe, he sat down with the grieving widow and listened, carefully, to her story. When she had spilled out all her sorrow, he reached into one of the deep pockets in his robe, and drew out a tiny, little mustard(芥末) seed. “I think I may have a cure for your grief,” he said. “I want you to go round the people in this region, and look for a family that has no sorrows. When you find this family, give them this little mustard seed, and then come back to me.
The woman set off in search of such a family. She visited every home in the district, and talked to the people. She listened to their stories, just as the holy man had listened to hers. In time, she almost forgot about the mustard seed, because every single family she met was carrying some kind of sorrow.
One day, she happened to meet the holy man again, and he stopped to ask how she was feeling. She was surprised at first, at his question, and then she suddenly remembered the mustard seed, still safely in her purse. “I’m sorry, I haven’t found a family without sorrows yet,” she told him. “But you yourself are cured of your grief,” he smiled. “The mustard seed is a great healer!”
What does the underlined word “grieving” mean?
A.amused | B.sad | C.angry | D.astonished |
What did the holy man ask her to do to end her sorrow?
A.to go to church for help. |
B.to live with the family that has no sorrows with the mustard seed. |
C.to help others so that she can feel the happiness from the bottom of her heart. |
D.to find a family that is always happy and give them the mustard seed before returning to him. |
How did the woman treat the families she visited?
A.She was a good listener. |
B.She helped them to solve the problems they met. |
C.She gave every family a mustard seed.. |
D.She told them her unfortunate story. |
Who on the earth heals the woman’s grief?
A.The mustard seed | B.Her children |
C.The families in the district | D.She herself |
Did you know that there are gifts that will multiply your happiness when you give them away? Here are five of those gifts. Giving these gifts will allow you to share with others your most unique treasure: your real self. Each gift will return to you many times.
1. Share appreciation
Tell someone how much you appreciate the faith they've shown in you. Thank them sincerely for being part of your life. Tell them how much they are needed.
Feeling appreciated is one of the most important needs that people have. When you share with someone your appreciation and gratitude, they will not forget you. Appreciation will return to you many times.
2. Share time
Balance your time expenditures (耗费)so you can spend time with the people that you love. Support local organizations by sharing your special talents. Volunteer time for projects that benefit others in your community, country, and world.
When we slow down and observe our thoughts closely, we will sometimes uncover gifts and talents we didn't know we had. Sharing time and talents can result in discoveries that bring happiness beyond measure.
3. Share knowledge and ideas
Tell someone about a great book that you read so they can benefit from it too. Teach a new concept or idea that you've learned.
One of the best ways to strengthen new concepts in your mind is to share them with others. The more often you share what you've learned, the stronger that information will become in your memory. Sharing knowledge also provides solutions to problems. The more knowledge we share, the more knowledge we receive in return.
4. Share friendship
Acknowledge someone's strengths. Let them know that you are willing to be there when they need you. Visit someone you haven't seen for a long time. Telephone friends or relatives who live far away. Introduce two friends who don't know each other.
Bringing one individual into another's life can result in tremendous changes for both people, and for you. We succeed with the help of others. People grow by growing together. If you'd like to have many friends, then share friendship with others generously.
5. Share kindness
Perform a random act of kindness for someone: a smile, compliment, or a favor just for fun. These will multiply and spread very rapidly.
There is a powerful quote by Stephen Jay Gould who said, “The center of human nature is rooted in ten thousand ordinary acts of kindness that define our days.” Kindness is priceless. The love, kindnesses, and value we have given authentically to others will be our remaining treasures at the end of life.
Think about this statement by Norman MacEwan: “Happiness is not so much in having as sharing. We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.”
What is the best title of this passage?
A.We want to share. | B.Give your presents away. |
C.We make a life by giving. | D.Don’t be mean to give. |
What can we learn from Stephen Jay Gould’s words?
A.We all come from a world which is in a harmonious atmosphere. |
B.Everybody’s deep heart is filled with kindness at first, which decides our present life. |
C.Kindness is the most important thing in our daily life. |
D.We need kindness all the time. |
For those who are living a life on the go, what suggestion will the writer probably give to them?
A.Tell the people around you how much you love them. |
B.No one is an isolated island. We succeed with the help of others |
C.The more knowledge we share, the more knowledge we receive in return. |
D.Slow down and enjoy the life, which may bring you a brand new world with happiness. |
Where can you probably find this passage?
A.Magazines | B.Newspapers | C.Guide books | D.Scientific reports |
The English are famous for their manners. The phrase, “Manners maketh the man” was coined by Englishman William of Wykeham back in 1324, but they’re just as important today. Books are written on the subject, advice columns in magazines tell people how to behave, and “finishing schools” still exist to ensure that young girls become young “ladies”.
The best example of English manners is in their mastery of the art of forming a queue. It is a popular joke in England (the land of sporting failures) to say, “if only queuing was an Olympic sport, we’d win hands down.” No one knows exactly how and when it started, but queuing plays an important role in the English social make-up. School children are taught to queue for roll-call, assembly and lunch, and English people across the land form orderly queues at shops, banks, cinemas and bus-stops every day. The English obviously aren’t the only people who queue, but they seem to do it better than anyone else. As one visitor said, “I have travelled across Europe, the Middle and Far East and nowhere have I seen the single-file queues which are formed in England.”
The English are also famously polite when it comes to language. Whereas many other notions are more direct in their communication, the English prefer a more indirect form of asking for things. For example, an American who wants to talk to a colleague might say, “Got a minute?”; however an English person will often use a more indirect means might of requesting the chat, “Sorry to bother you, but would you possibly have a minute or so to have a quick chat if you don’t mind, please?”
The English also love to apologize for things. When squeezing past someone, people say “sorry”. And they will apologize if you bump into them, “whoops! Sorry! My fault.” In fact, no one seems to say “sorry” as much as the English: “sorry I’m late. /Sorry I forgot to call you last night./I’m sorry you didn’t get the e-mail.” And so on. They also like to use “please” and “thank you” a lot. In a shop, they will say, “I’d like a packet of crisp, please. Thanks.” British students thank their lectures, and bosses often thank their employees for doing their jobs.
Why does “finishing schools” still exist to help young girls become “ladies”?
A.Because the English mind their manners very much. |
B.Because the English parents want to marry their daughters to the royal family. |
C.Because the English girls are so rude that they need to be taught to be polite. |
D.Because the English government ensures their existence. |
The underlined sentence in paragraph2 implies ________________.
A.The English love the Olympics very much. |
B.The English spend nothing winning an Olympic medal. |
C.The English are best at queuing. |
D.The English prefer to queue with their hands down. |
According to the passage, if Americans say “Waiter! Could I have another fork, please?” how will the English express such a meaning?
A.Excuse me! Give me another fork, please! |
B.Excuse me! I have to be a bother, but would you mind awfully changing this fork, please? |
C.Hi! Would you mind giving me another fork? |
D.Waiter! Come here and change the fork! |
According to the passage, why do the employers often thank their employees for doing their jobs?
A.The employees can bring them a lot of benefits. |
B.The employees finish their jobs perfectly. |
C.The English employers’ good manners lead them to do so. |
D.The employers do it as a result of the company’s regulation. |
NPR has ended its contract with Juan Williams, one of its senior news analysts, after he made comments about Muslims on the Fox News Channel.
NPR said in a statement that it gave Mr. Williams notice of his ending in this organization on Wednesday night.
The move came after Mr. Williams, who is also a Fox News political analyst, appeared on the “The O’Reilly Factor” on Monday. On the show, the host, Bill O’Reilly, asked him to respond to the idea that the United States was facing a “Muslim dilemma(窘境).”Mr. O’Reilly said, “The cold truth is that in the world today jihad(圣战), helped and encouraged by some Muslim nations, is the biggest threat on the planet.”
Mr. Williams said he agreed with Mr. O'Reilly.
He continued: “You know the kind of books I've written about the civil rights movement in this country. But when I get on the plane. I got to tell you, if I see people who are in Muslim clothing and I think, you know, they are identifying themselves first and known as Muslim. I get worried. I get nervous. ”
Mr. Williams also made reference to the Pakistani immigrant who was guilty this month trying to plant a car bomb in Times Square. “He said the war with Muslims, America's war is just beginning, first drop of blood. I don’t think there’s any way to get away from these facts,” Mr. Williams said.
NPR said in its statement that the remarks “were inconsistent with our editorial standards and practices, and weakened his reputation as a news analyst with NPR”
The public radio organization said it thanked him for many years of service. Mr. Williams did
not immediately respond on Wednesday night to an e-mail seeking comment.
Mr. Williams' contributions on Fox raised eyebrows at NPR in the past. In February 2009, NPR said it had asked that he stop being identified on “The O’Reilly Factor” as a “senior correspondent for NPR,” even though that title was accurate.
According to the passage, NPR is probably_ .

B.NPR was disappointed about Juan Williams’ performance in its programs |
C.Juan Williams' remarks about Muslims ruined NPR's reputation |
D.Juan Williams' comments and performances didn't agree with NPR's traditions |
What can we infer from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5'?
A.Juan Williams is afraid of taking a plane. |
B.It’s very easy to recognize Muslims because their clothes are special. |
C.Muslims are sometimes considered dangerous to the safety of the world. |
D.Juan Williams looks down upon Muslims. |
The best title of the passage is .
A.NPR ended its contract with Juan Williams |
B.Muslims are the biggest threat to the world |
C.Juan Williams, the senior news analyst of NPR |
D.Fired from NPR, Juan Williams keeps talking on Fox |
Armed only with iPhones, the inventive rock band Atomic Tom has gone viral(广为流传) by way of the New York subway. The band has scored an Internet hit with the video to the song “Take Me Out.”
Singer Luke White says the production was a top-secret operation.
“We didn't tell anyone about this. It was completely top-secret from our family, from our friends, from our label, our management, everybody. So the first time that people saw this video was last Friday when we put it on YouTube,” explained White.
Since uploading the video to YouTube, band members have spent several days refreshing the page to watch the number of hits rise.
The video has also made its way around Twitter as many people have shared it with their friends.
“I mean, it still hasn't quite hit. It's just kind of blowing our minds right now that we're getting this: many people are fond of it, and they're sharing it with their friends. We don't know what it's like really to have something that's viral, so all of this is very new to us.” said Eric Espiritu, the lead guitarist of the band.
White explains how the video came together:
“We did our research with the applications( 应用程序) and found applications that worked out really well with the instruments and then we plugged them all into, plugged our phones into mini-battery powered amplifiers(扩音器) that we put underneath our seats, and we did a lot of, you know, practices, in terms of figuring out what the balance of the sound and like who was overpowering, who was too loud or who was too soft.”
The idea for the video came from Espiritu's younger brother Benjamin. The younger Espiritu directed the video from his initial concept through the final edit and upload to the Internet.
“I've seen a lot of the music applications come out, and I've never actually had the chance to play with them," says Ben Espiritu. "When I started hearing about how they sound and everything, I thought it might be unique to take it one step further and then create an entire band just performing solely(单曲) on the iPhones, and I thought it would be a pretty cool idea.”
Ben says the success of the band’s music video is a credit to the talent and ability of the musicians, but it's also a sign of the times.
“It really comes down to seeing something different, seeing something unique, and I think that that's always, in any type of art form, what will speak to people, and I think it does reflect the times that we live in, taking a smart phone and then being able to turn it into an instrument, not only just an instrument, but making it sound really good.”
Who first saw the video of the song “Take Me Out”?
A.Their friends | B.The people on line |
C.Their family | D.Their management |
What is the band members’ attitude towards the sudden fame?
A.They are thrilled. |
B.They are quite used to it. |
C.They are kind of confused. |
D.They are so excited as to tell everyone they know. |
How did the video come into being?
A.The band copied from it other musicians. |
B.It had already existed in the iPhones before they bought them. |
C.The band created it with the help of the applications in the iPhones. |
D.The band made full use of the traditional instruments to make the song. |
What is the significance of the success of the band's music video?
A.It has introduced us several talented musicians. |
B.It has made the musicians into millionaires. |
C.It teaches the young a big lesson. |
D.It reflects the talent and ability of the musicians and the times that we live in. |
ABC公司对年度最佳员工进行奖励:选择自己想去的城市,进行一趟开心之旅。Peter, Penny, Catherine, Helen和Lee被评为了年度最佳员工,他们正在挑选自己想去的城市。阅读下面旅行社提供的城市旅游介绍摘要(A、B、C、D、E和F),选出适合他们的最佳城市,并在答题纸上相应选项的标号涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。
Peter is fond of delicious food and he also wants to have some wonderful tea.
Penny likes stocks and she wants to appreciate some world-class musicals as well.
Catherine loves reading and she is crazy about Sherlock Holmes.
Helen prefers to visit a city which has not only a long history but also modern scenes.
Lee is a big fan of water sports and sunshine.
A.FROM a skyline featuring both minarets(尖塔) and church spires to the call to prayer competing with music in a hip cafe, Istanbul is the only major city to span two continents. While it is known for sights dating back thousands of years, it also has a fascinating, and often ignored, modern scene that is finally receiving international attention. As a 2010 European Capital of Culture, the city is showcasing local artists in both historic areas and new museums — yet another example of how Istanbul is among the world’s most visually exciting cities. |
B.WUHOU temple and surrounding areas are interesting and fun to walk through. It's worth spending time in a tea house, perhaps one in Renmin Park, because Chengdu's tea culture is worth experiencing. Chun Xi Lu, with its fluorescent lights and frenetic shoppers, is a good place to see the more modern China, especially at night. But the real attraction in Chengdu, and in Sichuan in general, is often the food. The hotpot, while not as spicy as in Chongqing, is worth trying. It is the same with chao shou, or dumplings. Maybe you should head over to the restaurant section right now. |
C.SUNNY, fashion-forward, Sydney is an energetic city bent on making its mark. Sydney in particular is graced with wonderful weather most of the year. Many people are water sports fanatics and can be found on any given day enjoying the beautiful weather on the bay. Sports like surfing are being celebrated in their national birthplace. Boating or Sailing is another great way to enjoy the magnificent weather that Sydney offers most of the year. |
D.THERE are many different Londons, and they appeal to people with many different passions: museum lovers, theatergoers, devotees of royalty, people who like to walk in the rain. But richest of all, perhaps, is the London for book lovers.Skip to next paragraphBecause the city is the star and the backdrop of so much great literature, it is possible to believe you know it intimately(亲切的)— how it looks, how it feels — without ever leaving your home country, or indeed your home. But it is better to visit, if only for the joy of seeing the landscape of your imagination come to life. How thrilling it is to wander along Baker Street, where Sherlock Holmes once fictionally solved the unsolvable! |
E. CAIRO is third world and first world, Islamic world, a city that jars all the senses, all at once. There are thousands of years of history in this city of 18 million people, and that history can be seen in the people themselves: the seller peddling his beans from a decorated cart, the felucca (a traditional wooden sailing boat)captain guiding his sailboat through the murky Nile, the young man riding a bicycle through traffic with a ladder-sized tray of bread balanced on his head. Come prepared: a scarf for women to enter mosques; packets of tissues for bathroom stops; small bills for tips; and if you like to drink, a bottle or two of wine from the duty-free airport shop. Cairo has a lot to offer, but a good bottle of wine is not included.
F. MANY districts and landmarks in New York have become well- known to outsiders. The Statue of Liberty greeted millions of immigrants as they came to America in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The Broadway theater district is a major center of the world's entertainment industry. Anchored by Wall Street, in Lower Manhattan, New York vies with London as the financial capital of the world and is home to the New York Stock Exchange, the world's largest stock exchange by market capitalization of its listed companies. The original Manhattan Chinatown attracts a flood of tourists to its busy sidewalks and retail establishments.

One Saturday afternoon, Li Hua and Wang Ping, members from “Green Eyes”, was having an environmental protection activity near the riverside when they catch sight of a bird on the ground. They picked it out and found it wounded. Thinking it might die without timely help, they took it to home. They made a nest for it but fed it with rice and water. Under their treatment and care, the lucky birds got recovered soon. When time came for them fly the bird back to nature, they felt a bit pity but very delighting.
I think it’s worthwhile for him to do such a thing. Here I call on the public to show respect to nature. Only by changing the way we treat the environment can we get along good with it.
