Fifteen years ago, I took a summer vacation in Lecce in southern Italy. After climbing up a hill for a panoramic (全景的) view of the blue sea, white buildings and green olive trees, I paused to catch my breath and then positioned myself to take the best photo of this panorama.
Unfortunately, just as I took out my camera, a woman approached from behind, and planted herself right in front of my view. Like me, this woman was here to stop, sigh and appreciate the view.
Patient as I was, after about 15 minutes, my camera scanning the sun and reviewing the shot I would eventually take, I grew frustrated. Was it too much to ask her to move so I could take just one picture of the landscape? Sure, I could have asked her, but something prevented me from doing so. She seemed so content in her observation. I didn’t want to mess with that.
Another 15 minutes passed and I grew bored. The woman was still there. I decided to take the photo anyway. And now when I look at it, I think her presence in the photo is what makes the image interesting. The landscape, beautiful on its own, somehow comes to life and breathes because this woman is engaging with it.
This photo, with the unique beauty that unfolded before me and that woman who “ruined” it, now hangs on a wall in my bedroom. What would she think if she knew that her figure is captured (捕捉) and frozen on some stranger’s bedroom wall? A bedroom, after all, is a very private space, in which some woman I don’t even know has been immortalized (使……永存). In some ways, she lives in my house.
Perhaps we all live in each others’ spaces. Perhaps this is what photos are for: to remind us that we all appreciate beauty, that we all share a common desire for pleasure, for connection, for something that is greater than us.
That photo is a reminder, a captured moment, an unspoken conversation between two women, separated only by a thin square of glass.
1.What happened when the author was about to take a photo?
A. Her camera stopped working. B. A friend approached from behind.
C. Someone asked her to leave. D. A woman blocked her view.
2.In the author’s opinion, what makes the photo so alive?
A. The woman’s existence in the photo.
B. The perfect positioning of the camera.
C. The rich color of the landscape.
D. The soft sunlight that summer day.
3.The photo on the bedroom wall enables the author to better understand ________.
A. the need to be close to nature B. the shared passion for beauty
C. the joy of the vacation in Italy D. the importance of private space
4.The passage can be seen as the author’s reflections upon _______.
A. the art of photography B. the pleasure of traveling
C. a particular life experience D. a lost friendship

One of the most popular comments I have heard about time is that we need to balance our time in order to live a more balanced life. We often feel that if we are focused and devoted, happy and positive, loving and generous, healthy and energetic, then we will be balanced people. And if the pie chart of our daily life has just the right ratios(比率) of work, life, family, health, and service, then our time will be balanced.
The problem with trying hard for balance is that most people’s understanding of this state is so different from what balance actually is! Balance is not about walking around with a bunch of positive qualities; it’s about walking on the tight rope between the poles within us and the circumstances outside of us. Strictly speaking, in order to achieve true balance, we should accept we may have some shortcomings. We should accept and love the most challenging parts of life because they offer gifts for full, real living.
Even though we measure time in a linear(线状的) way, time is and will always be asymmetrical(不均匀的). One moment is not like another, just like each day is different and each tide that rolls in is different from the previous one. This is why it is impossible to balance our time through a pie chart in a time management book. Exploring asymmetrical time allows us to move in line with an unbalanced time and thus regain our relative balance. If we stop measuring ourselves against the standards of linear time, we can accept ourselves more fully. New possibilities arise as we accept the uncertainty.
1.Why does the author think it’s difficult to achieve balance in life?
A. People don’t know the true meaning of balance.
B. People may not have enough good qualities.
C. People cannot create their pie charts of daily life.
D. People fail to realize the qualities they really need.
2.In the author’s opinion, what does a balanced life mean?
A. We should arrange our time wisely.
B. We should try to believe ourselves.
C. We should learn to improve ourselves and our lives.
D. We should accept the bad aspects of ourselves and life.
3.What does the last paragraph mainly want to tell us?
A. Uncertainty can help build up confidence.
B. It is difficult for us to accept ourselves fully.
C. There are always uncertain things occurring in life.
D. New possibilities can help us achieve balance in life.
4.What may be the best title for the text?
A. The true meaning of time
B. Seeking relative balance
C. Struggle for a balanced life
D. Popular comments about time

I was lucky enough to have a chance to study in the United States as an international student from the Ukraine when I was fourteen years old. I went to a wonderful school,West Catholic High School, for my freshman year.
I remember my first day at that school as if it were yesterday. I was very nervous, and I could feel my heartbeat on the tips of my toes. My main fear was that I would not be able to express myself due to the language barrier. I was trying to have as little communication as I possibly could. And I almost succeeded, until we had to introduce ourselves in front of the class.
And the moment the word “international”flew out of my mouth, i was surrounded by thirty people who were asking questions one after another. I remember some of the questions were “Where is the Ukraine? Is it a kingdom?”“Do you have McDonald’s? Does it taste the same?”and “Say something in your language.” It turned out to be the opposite of less communication, but it was so much fun.
During the first three months, I certainly experienced a bit of cultural shock. I think Americans are the nicest people I have ever met in my entire life. They always smile and say, “Hi, how are you?”
One day, I noticed the students looking at me suspiciously. Finally , my classmate came up to my locker and whispered, “Is that true that you are a princess(公主)and that you came to study here so that nobody would recognize you?” At one point, I even had an image of myself wearing a gown and waving at the crowd. What ? People do have a wild imagination!
During my study abroad experience, I saw a totally new world, experienced great culture, met a lot of incredible(不可思议的)people and improved my language. This trip inspired me to learn foreign languages. That is one of the reasons why I speak five different languages today.
1.On the first day of school, the author was afraid that__________.
A. she would be too shy to talk with others.

2.When the author’s classmates knew she was an international student, they______________________.
A. made fun of her
B. prepared a special gift for her
C. were eager to make friends with her
D. showed interest in her country’s culture.
3.What does the underlined word “suspiciously” in Para.5 probably mean?
A. Doubtfully B. Excitedly
C. Angrily D. Fearfully
4.What can we learn from the text?
A. The author decided to settle in the USA.
B. The author didn’t want to make herself known.
C. The author always imagined herself as a princess.
D. The author got lots of benefits through studying abroad.
