When I was a kid in Minnesota, watermelons were expensive. One of my father's friends, Bernie, was a rich businessman, who owned a large store in St. Paul.
  Every summer, when the first watermelons arrived, Bernie would call. Dad and I would go to Bernie's place. We’d sit on the edge of the dock (码头), feet dangling (摇晃), and got ready for a big meal. Bernie would take his knife, cut our first watermelon, hand us both a big piece and sit down next to us. Then we'd bury our faces in watermelon, eating only the heart—the reddest, juiciest, firmest, sweetest, and most seed-free part — and throw away the rest.
  Bernie was my father's ideal of a rich man. I always thought it was because he was such a successful businessman. Years later, I realized that it was not Bernie's wealth itself but his way of dealing with it that my father liked. Bernie knew how to stop working, get together with friends and eat only the heart of the watermelon.
  What I learned from Bernie is that being rich is a state of mind. Some of us, no matter how much money we have, will never be free enough to eat only the heart of the watermelon. If you don't take the time to dangle your feet over the dock and enjoy life’s small pleasure, your work is probably hurting your life.
  For many years, I forgot that lesson I'd learned as a kid on the loading dock. I was too busy making all the money I could.
Well, I've relearned it. I hope I have time left to enjoy the success of others and to take pleasure in the day. That's the heart of the watermelon. I have learned again to throw the rest away.
小题1:We learn from the second paragraph the writer and his father were feeling_____.
A.hungryB.worriedC.relaxedD.proud
小题2:How did the writer and his father eat the watermelon? 
A.They ate it in a polite way.
B.They only ate its best part.
C.They ate every part of it.
D.They shared only one piece.
小题3:In the eyes of the writer's father, Bernie ________.
A.was just a rich businessman
B.worked hard all the time
C.lived a rich but healthy life
D.knew how to make money
小题4:The underlined part "the heart of the watermelon" in the last paragraph refers to ______.
A.the writer's hope of enjoying life
B.the writer's busy life
C.the writer's decision of making money
D.the best part of the watermelon
小题5:It can be learned from the passage that ______.
A.one has to work hard to reach his goal
B.a friend in need is a friend in deed
C.watermelon is the healthiest fruit
D.one should keep work-life balance

Sherlock Holmes is thought to be the greatest detective in stories. He is, in fact, more famous than his writer — Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
In the stories, Holmes is “tall and manly (有男子气概的)”. Holmes’ flat was shared by the lovable, but sometimes clumsy (笨拙的) Dr. Watson.

So Holmes was brought back to “life” and appeared in further stories.
The stories of Sherlock Holmes have been reprinted many times ever since then. Today we can watch Holmes in cinema and television screens as well as on stage.
