Dear John,
I am so glad hear from you. Learn that you are working on Chinese, I strongly recommend the novel Journey to the West. The novel is one of the Four Great Classical Novels of Chinese literature. It tells about a Buddhist monk and his three disciples, animal with human characteristic,traveling west to India in search for Buddhist scriptures. I think, the study of this novel open the way to Chinese values and history, from what you will get a better understanding of Chinese culture. Beside, the novel offers a mixture of adventure and comedy, so while enjoying reading, you will surprisingly find you can speak and write in Chinese more fluent.
I hope you keep reading to enjoy the charm of Chinese language but you will achieve a great progress in your Chinese.

【题目】 Microsoft PowerPoint is the world’s most common presentation tool. It emerged from software company Forethought Inc in the 1980s. Bob Gaskins was the man behind it.
“I knew in the early 80s that there were as many as a billion, a thousand million presentation slides being made per year just in America,” Gaskins says,“ but they were all made by hand and almost nobody was using computers to do them.
“It was clear to me that here was a huge application worth billions and billions of dollars a year that could be done on computers as soon as there was a revolution in the kinds of computers that we had.”
Gaskins was onto something, but it was a hard sell at the time. The software wouldn’t run on any existing personal computers. Anyone wanting to use it had to buy a new machine. Even so, people bought personal computers for the first time in order to be able to use PowerPoint, says Wired magazine journalist Russell Davies.
Davies explains that before PowerPoint, people used slides to convey information to groups --- but anyone creating a presentation had to send away to get their materials made. It took a long time to do, was difficult to make changes and because it was so expensive, only the most senior people in an organisation got to do it.
“ PowerPoint,” Davies says,“made it possible for everyone in an organisation to stand up and say their piece.”
PowerPoint has helped turn us all into presenters --- but it’ s also been accused of over-simplifying ideas and distracting (干扰)us from clear thinking.
Sarah Kaplan is a management professor at the University of Toronto’s Rotman School of Management. She has noticed that, rather than people asking for new analysis or insights in meetings, they were asking for more PowerPoint slides.
Kaplan says that some CEOS, such as Amazon’s Jeff Bezos, have banned its use. “He felt, and I think many people feel, that PowerPoint became such an object of the process that they lost the ideas inside of it and that is the risk.”
【1】What drove Bob Gaskins to develop PowerPoint?
A. His personal needs at the office.
B. The support from Forethought Inc.
C. The great potential market demand.
D. His interest in science and technology.
【2】What was the problem with Bob Gaskin’s PowerPoint in the 1980s?
A. It was very expensive.
B. It was very difficult to use.
C. It couldn’t t be used on old computers.
D. It couldn’t satisfy young people’s needs.
【3】What might be Russell Davies’s attitude to PowerPoint?
A. Critical.B. Appreciative.C. Cautious.D. Contradictory.
【4】Why does Jeff Bezos ban the use of PowerPoint?
A. It fails to solve practical problems.
B. It fails to convey messages effectively.
C. It makes something valuable unavailable.
D. It results in creative thinking getting ignored.

【题目】 The first men and women came to Britain over two and a half million years ago. 【1】 But the British Isles only became islands separated from the rest of Europe about 8, 500 years ago, when melting ice formed the English Channel!
3,000 years after Britain became an island, new tribes who came by boat from the mainland introduced farming.【2】Many of these man-made hills can still be seen.
Later on, people learned to build stone monuments. The most amazing is Stonehenge, a circle of huge stones begun about 4,500 years ago. Stonehenge is the world's most famous prehistoric monument. 【3】
3,000 years ago the climate in Britain became colder and wetter than before. 【4】 A bit later iron started to be used for tools and weapons instead of bronze. Knowledge of ironworking may have been brought by the Celts, a new wave of immigrants who started to arrive from southern Europe in about 500 BC.
What we know about the first people in Britain has been worked out by archaeologists from the remains they left behind them. Pytheas, a Greek, was the first person who could read and write to come to Britain. His visit was in about 330 BC, over 2, 000 years after Stonehenge was begun. Unfortunately, what Pytheas wrote has been lost, so we don't have any written record of Britain until the Romans came. 【5】
A. That was almost 300 years after he did!
B. As a result, people had to move down from high ground.
C. Because of the climate change, much of the ice has melted.
D. Many archaeologists believe that Britain was once covered by ice.
E. These tribes built earthworks for protection and as tombs for their dead bodies.
F. They were hunters and gatherers of food, who used stone tools and weapons.
G. We don't know what it was used for, though many different suggestions have been made.
