My husband and I are Danish(丹麦人). As a matter of fact, many of my ancestors were English:I was born in England and was originally of British nationality. My parents were killed in a car crash when I was a baby, so I was brought up in Denmark by my grandmother and educated in Danish schools so that Danish is really my native language.
We arrived in England last February at five o'clock on a Wednesday morning after a rough crossing. Waves were seemed as high as mountains rocked the boat from side to side. We were both sick on the journey and a fine drizzle(毛毛雨) met us as we got off the boat. To make matter worse, Klaus, my husband, left his camera on the ship; I lost my handbag (which was never been found to this day), and we nearly forgot to tip the taxi-driver, who complained about our luggage and seemed to be in a thoroughly bad temper. Few visitors can have experienced such an unfortunate beginning to their say, and we certainly felt like going straight home again.
We stayed for a week in a hotel, and were then lucky enough to find a furnished(有家具的) flat in the suburbs of London. It is not so convenient as our flat in Copenhagen (哥本哈根), but it is less expensive than some we saw in advertisements. Klaus is studying at the local Technical College and, in addition, he often attends public lectures at the University of London on as many subjects as possible, chiefly to improve his English. He is a qualified en gineer who has been employed for several years in a factory. Our two children have joined us and they are being educated in an English private school. I am working as a part-time nurse in hospital, and I have so much to do that I have almost no leisure time.

MONTREAL (Reuters)-Crossing the US-Canada border (边界) to go to church on a Sunday cost a US citizen $ 10 000 for breaking Washington's strict new security(安全) rules.
The expensive trip to church was a sur-prise for Richard Albert, who lives right on the Canadian border. Like the other half-doz-en people of Township 15, crossing the bor-der is a daily occurrence for Albert. The nearby Quebec village of St. Pamphile is where they shop, eat and go to church.
There are many such situations in these areas along the largely unguarded 5 530-mile border between Canada and the US-which in some cases actually runs down the middle of streets or through buildings.
As a result, Albert says he did not expect any problems three weeks ago when he returned home to the US after attending church in Cana-da, as usual. The US customs (海关) station in this area is closed on Sundays, so he just drove around the locked gate, as he had done every weekend since the gate appeared last May, fol-lowing a tightening of border security. Two days later, Albert was told to go to the customs office, where an officer told him he had been caught on camera crossing the border illegally(非法).
Ottawa has given out special passes to some 300 US citizens in that area so they can enter the country when Canadian customs stations are closed, but the US stopped a similar program last May. That forces the people to a 200-mile detour along hilly roads to get home through another border check-point.
Albert has requested that the customs office change their decisions on the fine, but he has not attended a Sunday church since. “I feel like I'm living in a prison, ”he said.
(1) We learn from the text that Richard Al-bert is ________ .
[ ]
A.an American living in Township 15
B.a Canadian living in a Quebec village
C.a Canadian working in a customs station
D.an American working in a Canadian church
(2) Albert was fined because he ________.
[ ]
A.failed to obey traffic rules
B.broke the American security rules
C.worked in St. Pamphile without a pass
D.damaged the gate of the customs office
(3) The underlined word “ detour ” in Para-graph 5 means ________ .
[ ]
A.a drive through the town
B.a race across the fields
C.a round about way of travelling
D.a journey in the mountain area
(4) What would be the best title for the text?
[ ]
A.A Cross-country Trip.
B.A Special Border Pass.
C.An Unguarded Border.
D.An Expensive Church Visit.

Has your boss sent out a memo(备忘录)warning all employees to stop logging into sites like Face book, You Tube, and Twitteron company time? You may want to send a memo straight back to him or her with some justification(辩护)for your web surfing time.According to a study from University of Melbourne, workers who are allowed to spend time each day reading news, blogs, product reviews, communicating with friends on social networks and taking part in other non-work-related online pursuits are actually more productive than those who are blocked from doing so.
The study has showed that people who surf the Internet for fun at work-within a reasonable limit of less than 20% of their total time in the office-are ________ by about 9% than those who don抰.
Why the seemingly confusing result? According to Dr.Coker, it comes down to our attention spans."People need to let their mind go blank for a bit to get back their concentration," he said."Think back to when you were in class listening to a lecture-after about 20 minutes you can抰 concentrate your attention, yet after a break your concentration was restored."
When mixed with work time, web surfing allows employees to refresh their minds and come back to the task at hand with more focus and care.
"Short breaks, such as a quick surf of the Internet, en-able the mind to rest itself, leading to better concentration for a day抯 work, and as a result, increased productivity," Dr.Coker added.
If your manager can抰 tolerate workplace leisure time, share this insight with him or her and maybe he or her even becomes your Face book friend.
1.What is the main idea of this text?(within 10 words)
_____________________
2.Which sentence in the text is the closest in meaning to the following one? You may have enough reasons to argue with your manager you抮e your web surfing time at work.
_____________________
3.Fill in the blank in the second paragraph with proper words.(within 5 words)
_____________________
4.List three kinds of things workers can do during the web surfing time at work.(within 10 words)
