    Do you have friends or relatives who live in other parts of China? For example, maybe you live in Beijing, but you have cousins in Chongqing. But luckily, if you want to call them on the phone or do a video chat with them, you don’t have to worry about which time zone you are in. This is because almost all of China follows a single standard time.

    But some countries have many different time zones. For example, the US alone has five different time zones. My hometown New York is in the Eastern Time Zone. But my friends in California are in the Pacific Time Zone, which is three hours behind my time zone. So, if I want to call them, I have to plan with them ahead of time to make sure we are both free at the same time.

    Actually, there is one exception (例外) in China: the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region (新疆维吾尔自治区). In this region, people either follow Beijing Time - the time that the rest of the country follows - or Xinjiang Time, which is about two hours behind Beijing Time. People in Xinjiang have to be clear whether they are using Xinjiang Time or Beijing Time when making plans with each other.

    For the first year I lived in China, I would often get phone calls from my mother very late at night because she forgot to consider the time difference. My hometown is exactly 12 hours behind China time! But by now, my family, friends and I have gotten used to the difference.

    1.There are ________ time zone(s) in America.

    A.one B.two C.five

    2.The writer has to make a plan with friends in California before calling because ________.

    A.they are both free

    B.they are at the same time

    C.they are in different time zones

    3.The underlined word “consider” means ________.

    A.认为 B.关心 C.考虑

    4.Which of the following is TRUE?

    A.All of China follows a single standard time.

    B.People in Xinjiang can choose the time they use.

    C.It is 10:00 in New York when it is 12:00 in California.

    5.The best title for this passage is ________.

    A.Learn to Save Time

    B.Make Plans before Calling

    C.Different Countries, Different Times

    Taking out a billboard for Dad’s birthday

    A father has accepted a very singular birthday gift from his two adult sons. Since Chris and Mike both live in Florida, they were sad that they could not _______ with their father in Linwood, New Jersey for his special day.

    As kids, they would always celebrate their dad’s birthday by _______ out and telling the restaurant workers about the special time so they would make a _______ on their behalf（代表某人）. They could not continue their special_______, however, they decided to ask for some outside help.

    Their father, Christopher Ferry, didn’t know about their plans, _______last week when he woke up to a text message from a phone number he did not recognize（认出）.

    “On Thursday morning, I got a text that said ‘Happy Birthday’, and I said, ‘_______is this?’” Ferry told reporters . “‘Nick, ' ‘Nick who?’ ‘Ho, you don’t _______ me.’ ‘How do you know it’s my birthday?’ ‘I read it on a billboard（广告牌）.’”

    Sure enough, Mike and Chris had taken out a full billboard reading “Wish My _______ a Happy Birthday Love, Your sons”. The billboard also _______Ferry’s name, face, and phone number.

    At first, they________ expected their father to receive birthday wishes from his friends and family members who recognized his face, ________ with the billboard hanging at the entrance of the highway, their dad’s phone was ________ filled with messages and voicemail from strangers wishing him a happy birthday.

    The billboard joke has made Ferry a local__________person, too. Ferry said, “The waitress knew me. She said, ‘Oh, you’re the billboard‘s dad’ — so that’s my new title（标题）. I’m the billboard’s dad. I love it. It’s really ________”.

    It seems right to say that Chris and Mike have made up for their absence （缺席）on Ferry’s birthday, which is on March 16th. “We’re very excited to see my dad’s________ because he really deserves（值得） it,” said the brothers.
