    It's 9 a.m.,the morning rush hour in Toronto.A man has fallen down on a downtown street suddenly.Several passers-by stop to help the man.One woman reaches into her purse for her cellphone and hits 911,the emergency number.1.

    Within ten minutes,the stricken man is in the back of an ambulance and is sent to the hospital for life-saving treatment.

    This scene is fairly common in Toronto and other major cities.Over the years,cities have developed systems to respond quickly to emergencies.2.But none of this would be possible without the cooperation of car drivers who yield（让路）to emergency vehicles on busy downtown streets.In fact,it's against the law for drivers not to yield.

    To yield means to give away or,more specifically,to get out of the way.3.As yet,China doesn't have any specific laws that require drivers to yield,whether it is for slower cars to move over to the inside lane of a highway or for all cars to give way to emergency vehicles.4.Drivers did not yield when they heard the ambulance's siren.

    In Canada,failing to yield to an ambulance vehicle can result in a fine of $400~$2,000 and reduction of three points off your license.That's for a first offense.

    5.This punishment is severe because lives are in danger.

    A.It has resulted in many lives being saved.

    B.A second offense results in a bigger fine,the loss of your driver's license for two years and a possible jail sentence.

    C.It saves lives and,who knows,someday it may save your own.

    D.Three minutes later,sirens（警报）are heard in the distance as a police car,an ambulance and a fire truck race to the area.

    E.It means pulling to the side of the road to let others pass.

    F.Recently,an injured Beijing cyclist died on the way to hospital because the ambulance carrying him got stuck in city traffic.

    G.Safe driving depends on driver's being aware of the traffic around them and yielding when necessary.

    Instagram is containing so many photos of food—now a pop-up diner in London is taking advantage of this new trend by letting people settle the bill for their meals simply by uploading photos of their dishes to social networks.

    I always thought people's taking pictures of their food was kind of silly,but at this new pop-up restaurant in the UK,I'd probably do it too.“The Picture House” is the world's first pay-by-photo restaurant—you order,click a photo of the food,share on Instagram and eat for free!

    The restaurant belongs to frozen food giant (巨人) Birds Eye,who came up with the idea to cash in on people's addiction with photographing food and sharing the pictures online.They conducted a survey and found out that more than half of the British population regularly took pictures of their meals.So they realized it was a better way to advertise their new dining range.

    The pop-up diner was open in Soho,London for three days in May,and is now moving to other major UK cities. They serve two-course meals that customers don't have to pay for,if they photo and Instagram it.

    The restaurant is a part of Birds Eye's 'Food for Life' campaign,a new marketing project that aims at changing the way people look at frozen food."Taking photos of food enables people to show off and to share their mealtime moments—from the everyday to the special," said marketing director Margaret Jobling .

    The reaction to The Picture House has been great so far.And The pay-by-picture concept has proven to be an effective way.Alternative payment methods are actually gaining popularity among a lot of businesses.Last year,in a cafe in Germany customers pay by how much time they spend there,not by what they eat.

    1.Instagram probably is ____.

    A. a restaurant free of charge B. a program used to share photos

    C. a new marketing project D. a campaign of "Food for Life"

    2.”The Picture House” encourages sharing photos of its food to ____.

    A. raise the price of frozen food B. reward the regular customers

    C. create a new social media trend D. attract more customers

    3.Which of the following can serve as the best title for the passage?

    A. No Need to Pay. B. The Pop-up Diner. C. Pay by Picture. D. Food for Life.

    Believe it nor not, ancient Chinese people had their own methods of heat preservation in winter.

    • “Wen Ding”, ancient rice cooker

    The “Wen Ding”, an ancient cooking container, preserved heat by burning fuels like charcoal. The one unearthed in Nanjing in 1989 is thought to be the oldest of its kind discovered in China, dating back to the Stone Age.

    • “Ran Lu”, ancient small hot pot

    The “Ran Lu” is a small-sized cooking vessel (器皿) made of bronze. A charcoal stove forms the main structure, with a bottom tray to hold charcoal ashes, and a movable cup at the top. Some experts have concluded that the vessel’s structure suggests that these vessels became popular in the Warring States Period (475—221 BC).

    • Bronze You, ancient kettle

    The Bronze You, one of the most common wine containers during the Shang and Zhou, dynasties, could also be used to warm wine. For example, the Bronze You with beast mask design, unearthed in Jiangxi province, had an opening where charcoals could be placed, allowing people to enjoy a hot drink.

    • Bronze Yan, ancient steamer

    Although the “Wen Ding” was effective at keeping food warm, ancient Chinese people later found that its burning produced pollution. As a result, the Bronze Van was made with a two-tier (双层的) structure and used to steam rice and other grains. After the Eastern Han Dynasty (AD 25-AD 220), further improvements to the Bronze Yan led to the modern day steamer.

    1.When did the “Ran Lu” begin to gain popularity?

    A. In the Zhou Dynasty B. In the Warring States Period.

    C. In the Eastern Han Dynasty. D. In the Stone Age.

    2.One of the main functions of the Bronze You was to .

    A. place hot charcoals B. pour hot water

    C. keep wine warm D. hold charcoal ashes

    3.One advantage the Bronze Yan had over the “Wen Ding” was that .

    A. it was useful B. it was convenient

    C. it was environment-friendly D. it was warm

    4.According to the passage, which of the following may have the longest history?

    A. The "Wen Ding”. B. The “Ran Lu”.

    C. The Bronze You. D. The Bronze Yan.

    My mom was one-eyed. I hated her... She was such an embarrassment. She ran a small shop at a flea market to sell anything for the money we needed.

    I remember it was field day, and my mom came. I was so embarrassed. I threw her a hateful look and ran out. The next day at school..., “Your mom only has one eye?!” and they teased me.

    I wished my mom would disappear from this world, so I said to her, “Why don’t you have the other eye?! You’re only going to make me a laughing stock. Why don’t you just die?” She didn’t respond. I guess I felt a little bad, but meanwhile, it felt good to think I said what I’d wanted to say.

    That night, I woke up, and went to the kitchen to get water. My mom was crying quietly. I looked at her, and turned away. Because of what I had said to her earlier, there was something hurting in my heart. Even so, I hated my mother who was crying from her one eye. So I told myself I would grow up and become successful, because I hated my one-eyed mom and our poverty.

    Then I left her and got accepted in the Seoul University. Then, I got married. I bought a house then had kids. Now I’m living happily as a successful man. I like it here because it’s a place that doesn’t remind me of my mom.

    This happiness was getting bigger when someone unexpected came to see me. It was my mom... Still with her one eye. My little girl ran away, scared of her eye.

    I screamed at her, “How dare you come to my house and scare my daughter! Get out of here now!!” And to this, my mother quietly answered, “Sorry. I may have gotten the wrong address.” and she disappeared. Thank goodness. She doesn’t recognize me. I was relieved. I told myself I wasn’t going to think about this for the rest of my life.

    One day, a letter regarding a school reunion came to me. I lied to my wife saying I was going on a business trip. After the reunion, I went down to what I used to call a house. I found my mother fallen on the ground. She had a piece of paper in her hand. It was to me.

    My son, I was glad when I heard you were coming for the reunion. But I decided not to go to the school. For you... sorry I only have one eye. When you were little, you lost your eye. As a mother, I couldn’t stand watching you grow up with only one eye, so I gave you mine. I was so proud of my son seeing a whole new world for me with that eye. I was never upset at you for anything you did. You mean the world to me.

    My world fell apart. I hated the person who only lived for me. I didn’t know of any way that will make up for my worst deeds.

    My father was always a good gardener. One of my earliest memories is standing without shoes in the freshly tilled (翻耕的) soil, my hands blackened from digging in the ground.

    As a child, I loved following Dad around in the garden. I remember Dad pushing the tiller (耕作机) ahead in perfectly straight lines. Dad loved growing all sorts of things: yellow and green onions，watermelons almost as big as me, rows of yellow com, and our favorite—red tomatoes.

    As I grew into a teenager, I didn’t get so excited about gardening with Dad. Instead of magical land of possibility, it had turned into some kind of prison. As Dad grew older, his love for gardening never disappeared. After all the kids were grown and had started families of their own, Dad turned to gardening like never before. Even when he was diagnosed with cancer, he still took care of his garden.

    But then, the cancer, bit by bit, invaded his body. I had to do the things he used to do. What really convinced me that Dad was dying was the state of his garden that year. The rows and rows of multicolored vegetables were gone. Too tired to weed them, he simply let them be.

    For the first few years after he died, I couldn’t even bear to look at anyone’s garden without having strong memories pour over me like cold water from a bucket. Three years ago, I decided to plant my own garden and started out with just a few tomatoes. That morning, after breaking up a fair amount of soil, something caught the comer of my eye and I had to smile. It was my eight-year-old son Nathan, happily playing in the freshly tilled soil.

    1.Why did the author like the garden when he was a child?

    A. He wanted to be a garden-crazy like his father.

    B. He loved being in the garden with his father.

    C. The garden was full of his favorite food.

    D. The garden was just freshly tilled.

    2.When all the kids started their own families，the author’s father .

    A. stopped his gardening

    B. turned to other hobbies

    C. devoted more to gardening

    D. focused on planting tomatoes

    3.What happened to the garden when the author’s father was seriously ill?

    A. There was a great harvest.

    B. The garden was almost deserted.

    C. No plant grew in the garden at all.

    D. The author’s son took charge of the garden.

    4.Why did the author start his garden with tomatoes?

    A. He wanted to honor his father.

    B. His son liked the fields of tomatoes.

    C. He only knew how to grow tomatoes.

    D. He thought tomatoes were easy to manage.
