D

While waiting to pick up a friend at the airport in Portland, Oregon, I had an experience which occurred merely two feet away from me.

       Trying to locate my friend among the passengers coming through the jet way, I noticed a man walking toward me carrying two light bags. He stopped right next to me to greet his family.

       First he kissed his three children one by one and said, “It’s nice to see you. I missed you so much!” Then he hugged his wife, “I’ve saved the best for last!” giving her the longest, most passionate kiss I ever remember seeing. They stared at each other’s eyes, smiling at one another, while holding both hands. For an instant they reminded me of newlyweds(新婚夫妇), but I knew by the age of their kids that they couldn’t possibly be.

       Full of admiration, I asked, “Wow! How long have you two been married?” “Being together for fourteen years total, married twelve of those.” He replied, without breaking his gaze from his lovely wife’s face. “Well, then, how long have you been away?” I asked. “Two whole days!” “Two days?” I was astonished. By the intensity (热烈) of the greeting, I had assumed he’d been gone for at least several weeks --- if not months. I knew my expression betrayed me, so I turned away my eyes and said quietly, “I hope my marriage is still that passionate after so long!”

The man suddenly stopped smiling and looked me straight in the eye. With forcefulness he told me something that left me a different person. “Don’t hope, friend…decide!” Then he smiled again, shook my hand and said, “God bless!”

With that, he and his family turned and walked away together.

I was still watching that man and his special family walk just out of sight when my friend came up to me and asked, “What are you looking at?” Without hesitation, and with a curious sense of certainty, I replied, “My future!”

74. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

   A. The man replied to the author, with his eyes still fixed on his wife’s face.

   B. After being away for several weeks, the man missed his family very much.

   C. It was fourteen years since the couple had got married.

   D. Their three kids reminded the author of newlyweds.

75. By saying “my expression betrayed me” (in Paragraph 4), the author means that _________.

    A. he failed to express his ideas to the man 

B. the man sensed his real feelings from his expression

C. he didn’t believe in his expression any more  

D. his expression was not faithful to him

76. From the passage, we can infer that __________.

    A. the experience may be easily forgotten by the author

B. the author will live a passionate life from now on

C. the author will be away from his family and hug them passionately upon his return

D. Americans prefer to save the best for last

  Recently a Beijing father sent in a question at an Internet forum asking what“PK”meant.

  “My family has been watching the Super Girl singing competition TV program.My little daughter asked me what PK means, but I had no idea,”explained the puzzled father.

  To a lot of Chinese young people who have been playing games online, it is impossible not to know that item.

  In such Internet games,“PK”is short for“Player Kill”, in which two players fight until one ends the life of the other.

  In the case of the“Super Girl”singing competition,“PK”was used to refer to the stage where two singers have to compete with each other for only one chance to go up in competition ranking.

  Like this puzzled father, Chinese teachers at high schools have also been finding their students composition using Internet jargon(行话)difficult to understand.

  A high school teacher from Tianjin asked her students to write up compositions with colloquial(口语的)language, but they came up with a lot of Internet jargon that she didn't understand.

  “My GG”came back this summer from college.He told me I've grown up to be a PLMM':I love to FB with him together; he always took me to the KPM, went one composition.”

  “GG”means Ge Ge(Chinese pinyin for brother).“PLMM”refers to Piao Liang Mei Mei(beautiful sister).“FB”means“to corrupt”.“KPM”is short for KFC, Pizza Hut and McDonalds.

  While some specialists welcome Internet jargon as a new development in language, teachers are worried that too much use of such language might lead students away from the“right”usages.Parents especially worry that their children might not do well in language tests because of the use of Internet language.

  Such as those mixed feelings are, the conciseness and liveliness of Internet language continues to attract Internet users for making convenient communications.

  If you do not even know what a Kong Long(dinosaur, referring to ugly-looking female)or a Qing Wa(frog, referring to ugly-looking male)is, then you will possibly be regarded as a Cai Niao!
