【原文】
M: If you visit America, you should be aware of some of the American customs and habits. All restaurants in America accept cash for payment, and most also accept credit cards. You will seldom find a restaurant that accepts checks. It is common to have to wait for a table in a popular restaurant.There are many popular restaurants that do not accept reservations, or will only accept reservations for large parties, for example, six or more people. Many restaurants in America have a license to serve alcohol. The drinking age in America is 21. Tipping is another common custom. American restaurants do not add a service charge to the bill. Therefore, it is expected that the customer will leave a tip for the server. The common practice is to leave a tip that is equal to 15% of the total bill for acceptable service, and about 20% for superior service. Smoking in America is not always considered to be a good social habit. Smoking in public is not as common in America as in many other countries. Generally, Americans smoke less than Europeans and much less than Asians. It is a practice that is becoming less and less socially acceptable. Smoking is forbidden in many places. The legal smoking age in America is 18.

My son Aaron is 8. It’s been 8 birthdays and 9 Christmases of “What can we get, Aaron?” without proper toys along the way. He is just simply particular about toys. I can honestly tell you, I am printing this list, and heading to a couple of stores (some online) that I can get some of these items! Maybe this won’t be such a depressing Christmas.

【题目】 As William Shakespeare is to literature in English, so is the poet Du Fu to the Chinese literary tradition. “We have Dante, Shakespeare and Du Fu. These poets create the very values by which poetry is judged,” said Harvard Professor Stephen Owen in Du Fu, China’s Greatest Poet, a new BBC documentary(纪录片) broadcast on April 7.
Aimed at introducing the charm and beauty of traditional Chinese literature to viewers around the globe, the documentary invited famous British actor Ian McKellen, who played the wizard(巫师) Gandalf in the film series The Lord of the Rings, to read 15 of Du’s poems that have been translated into English.
The one-hour film talks about the poet’s life experiences in detail. Born in 712, Du lived under the government of the Tang Emperor Xuanzong (713-756), a time marked by extraordinary prosperity(繁荣), inclusiveness (包容) and cultural achievement. However, as the An Lushan Rebellion of 755 broke out in the country, Du, the former civil servant(文职人员) at the Tang court, had to take his family on the road as refugees(难民), and put up with starvation and suffering. Through ups and downs, the poet never stopped writing and about 1,500 poems have been kept over the ages.
“Chinese people really value the recording of history and Du is better than anyone at reflecting(反映) history in his poetry. That’s because historical events are mirrored in his own life and spiritual journey,” Zeng Xiangbo, a professor of ancient Chinese literature at Renmin University of China, told China Daily.
Even though he never held a high position in the government, Du still cared about common people. For example, in the poem My Cottage Unroofed By Autumn Gales , he wrote that “Could I get mansions covering ten thousand miles, I’d house all scholars poor and make them beam with smiles. ” “That’s why he was honored as a Poet Sage by later generations. A difficult life and his spirit of concern about the world helped him create so many masterpieces,” Shi Wenxue, a cultural critic based in Beijing, told the Global Times.
【1】According to Para.2, we know Ian McKellen is___________.
A.a narrator in the documentaryB.a big fan of Du Fu
C.the director of the documentaryD.a British wizard
【2】Why Du Fu is so valuable a poet in the mind of Chinese people?
A.Because he experienced the ups and downs of Tang Dynasty.
B.Because he never stopped and wrote about 1,500 poems.
C.Because his poems are completely kept over the ages.
D.Because his poetry is a good reflection of history.
【3】The poem mentioned in the last paragraph is intended to _________.
A.explain Du Fu’s position in the government
B.show Du Fu’s concern about ordinary people
C.tell the readers what a difficult life Du Fu lived
D.show Du Fu’s intelligence in writing a poem
【4】What is the passage mainly about?
A.Du Fu’s works gain popularity home and abroad.
B.Chinese literature becomes a hit in the UK.
C.China’s Poet Sage appears on the screen in the UK.
D.British people fall in love with Chinese poetry.

【题目】How to improve vocabulary fast
Your vocabulary refers to the words in a language you are familiar with. We should learn some ways to expand it.
Read every day. 【1】. Choose reading material that is slightly above your level and keep a dictionary with you to look up words you do not know.
【2】. If you do not meet with an unfamiliar word in your daily reading, use your dictionary to search for one.
Learn the correct definition and pronunciation for each new word. Pronunciation is as important as definition because in order to add a word to your active vocabulary, you must be able to use it in speech.
Elaborate (详尽阐述) on the meaning of the word. If you have just learned the word “stubborn”, think about the neighbour who will not lend you his car. 【3】
Use your new word in speech and in writing. E-mail your sister about how your cat is stubborn about sleeping on your pillow. 【4】. But the more you use it, the more fluent you will become in its use. Soon it will be a regular part of your active vocabulary.
Tell everyone you are trying to increase your vocabulary. Encourage them to ask you what your latest word is. 【5】
The more you explain the meaning of a word to someone, the more likely you are to remember it.
A. The vocabulary can be increased.
B. Find a new word every day.
C. Or let them ask for the definition of a new word you have used.
D. The more often you read, the faster your vocabulary can grow.
E. The first time you use a new word in speech it may seem strange.
F. Imagine him shaking his head, and think of him as “stubborn in his refusal”.
G. Your vocabulary contains the words you understand.
