The House at Pooh Corner
by A. A. Milne
I bought a box set of four Winnie the Pooh books while on holiday when I was eight years old. I adored Pooh, Piglet, Tigger and Eeyore. They became very real to me and I credit them with starting a lifelong love of reading.
I still have the box set, and loved reading the stories to my children when they were small. Part of me secretly believes A. A. Milne’s wonderful characters are all alive and well and still having their adventures in the Hundred Acre Wood.
—Roberta Smith
Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights
by Charlotte and Emily Bront?
I can never separate Charlotte Bront?’s Jane Eyre and Emily Bront?’s Wuthering Heights when I think about books that have stayed with me. Both had a deep impact on me when I read them as a teenager.
They were the first classic books I read purely for pleasure, rather than because I had to for school.
I grew up in Yorkshire, not far from where the Bront?s lived, so part of me really understood that depressing landscape. That close geographical connection led to a lifelong interest in the authors as much as in the books themselves.
I wrote a high-school essay on the contrasts and similarities between Charlotte and Emily and their heroines. I’d be fascinated to read that essay now to see what conclusions I reached as a 17-year-old.
— Jane Lee

I had just moved to San Antonio, Texas. I worked for the tour bus service taking tourists on a short tour of the city’s historic places and would end up at the Alamo.
I was driving back from my last tour on a cool February day on my way back from the San Femando Catholic church with no one on my bus when I saw a man dressed in rags, thinking this person must be an actor or something walking around. I stopped and asked him, “Need a ride?” Without saying anything he just walked on broad and sat down in seat behind me.
“Where are you heading?” I asked him. He looked up into the mirror at me and replied. “I’ve got to get to the fort(要塞)and report to Colonel(上校)Travis that the Mexicans are here!” I laughed to myself thinking that this man was a serious actor.
“I’m guessing you mean the Alamo?” I said back to him. I looked up and saw he wasn’t smiling nor laughing. All throughout the ride he was staring in amazement at all the towering skyscrapers and the buildings along the street.
“I remember when this town was nothing more than a little trading village!” He finally said to me.
“So what’s your name?” I asked him.
“Daniel Cloud, yours?”
“David Zime.” I replied as I turned the corner of the street and laid eyes upon the Alamo.
I pulled up to the sidewalk and opened the door. Cloud got out of his seat and came up to me.
“Thanks for the ride.” He said extending his hand. I took his palm and it was freezing cold like he just stepped out of the freezer.
“Not a problem, Mr. Cloud, and don’t worry about the fee. It’s on the house.” He nodded his head in gratitude like all us Texans do and walked away.
It wasn’t until then that I noticed that he was soaked(浸;泡)to the bone in dripping water and we had not a single drop of rain in a month or more. I just shook my head and closed the door behind him. When I turned around. Discovered amazingly how fast Cloud had gone away!
A few days later I was reading a book about the Battle of the Alamo when I discovered the most shocking thing I had ever discovered. The names of the 183 defenders of the Alamo were listed on the roll of honor, including Daniel Cloud, who spotted the Mexicans before they took over the streets of San Antonio in February of 1836, and his post was on top of the San Femando Church where I had picked him up!

2.We can learn from the passage that the Alamo__________.
A. is a historic tourist attraction B. lies in the downtown

The Square
Jack Dorsey, the co-inventor of Twitter, is promoting his latest invention called the Square. The square is a small plug-in attachment to your mobile phone that allows you to receive credit card payments.
The idea starting from Dorsey's friend Jim McKelvey who was unable to sell some glass work to a customer because he couldn't accept a particular card being used.
Accepting credit card payments for something you're selling isn't always easy, especially if you are mobile like a tradesman, or delivery service at a trade show.
This latest invention uses a small scanner that plugs into the audio input item on a mobile device. It reads information on a credit card when it is swiped(刷卡). The information is not stored on the device but sent over secure channels to banks. It basically makes any mobile phone a cash register for accepting card payments.
As a payer, you receive a receipt via email that can be instantly accessed securely online. You can also use a text message to authorize payment in real time. Retailers can create a payer account for their customers which speeds the payment process. For example, a cardholder can assign a photo to their card so their photo will appear on the phone for visual identity confirmation. Mobile devices with touch screens will also allow you to sign for goods.
There are no contracts, monthly fees, or hidden costs to accept card payments using Square and it is expected the plug-in attachment will also be free of charge.
As with Twitter, it's expected that Dorsey will direct the company based upon feedback from users. Square Inc. has offices in San Francisco, Saint Louis and New York and is currently beta testing the invention with retailers in the United States.
1.Why is Jack Dorsey promoting his latest invention?
A. To test a plug-in attachment.
B. To identify a particular credit card.
C. To sell some glass work to a customer.
D. To allow people to receive credit card payments.
2.What can we infer from Paragraph 4?
A. The service performs only on special mobile phones.
B. The latest invention is just a small scanner.
C. The Square contains information on a credit card.
D. It is safe for your information to be sent to banks.
3.How can a cardholder receive a receipt?
A. By email online.
B. By oral message.
C. By a payer account.
D. Over safe channels to banks.
4.What does the writer imply in the last paragraph?
A. The invention may be used in the future.
B. The Square has already put into use widely.
C. The invention hasn’t been tested these days.
D. The Square is popular among people in the US.
