    On my first trip in the United States , I went to San Antonion . I was on foot . So I went to only three places there : the Alamo , the River Walk , and the Art Gallery . I especially enjoyed visiting the Alamo , a well- known building in America .
    When I arrived at the Alamo , I was deeply impressed because it was well kept and in good shape . The Alamo was erected in about 1722, was later used as a fort(保垒) , and has been kept as a state monument(纪念馆) to the Texan War of Independence against Mexico . During the battle , all of the Texan defenders were killed . I was surprised at the exhibition of rifles , guns , cannons and swords .
    I was especially attracted by the paintings of a war . The paintings expressed the feelings of a painter very well . Even thought about 160 years have passed since the Battle of the Alamo , the exhibit is well kept . When I came out after seeing the exhibition , I felt as if I had a victory . The outer wall of the Alamo was destroyed here and there . When I touched the wall , I could feel the damage . After the war , little remained of the Alamo . All of the windows and doors were destroyed . The top part of the gate way disappeared without a trace(遗迹) . I will remember the Alamo forever . It is one of the best places to visit in San Antonio .

    A beggar, carrying a shabby(破旧的) old wallet, was begging alone from house to house. As he complained about his 36 , he kept wondering that people who lived in 37 houses should always be unsatisfied, 38 rich they might be, and they should go so far as to 39 all they have.
    “Here, for example,” he said, the former master of this house succeeded in trading, and made himself very rich. By then, instead of stopping, and handing over his 40 to another, and spending the rest of his years 41 peace, he took to(从事) equipping ships. He expected to get mountains of gold; but the ships were 42 , and his treasures were lost. Now they all lie at the bottom of the sea, and he has found his 43 disappeared like those in dreams. In short, examples of this are 44.
    At this moment Fortune suddenly appeared to the beggar and said, “Listen! I have long wished to 45 you. Here are a lot of gold coins I have found. Hold out your wallet, and I will fill it with them; but only on this condition: All shall be gold that falls into the wallet, but if 46 of them falls out of the wallet to the ground, it 47 become dust. Consider this well. I have warned you I shall 48 keep my word. Your wallet is old, don’t fill it 49 its power.” The beggar was almost too overjoyed to breathe. He 50 felt the ground below his feet. A stream of coins were poured 51 it. The wallet soon became rather heavy.
    “Is that 52 ?” “Not yet,” “Isn’t it 53 ?” “Never fear.” “Consider, you are a millionaire.” “Just a little more, just 54 a handful,” But at that moment the wallet broke, the gold coins 55 dust and Fortune disappeared. The beggar had nothing but his empty wallet and remained as poor as before.

    One silly question I simply can’t understand is "How do you feel?" Usually the question I asked of a man’s action－a man on the go, walking along the street or busily working at his desk. So what do you expect him to say? He’ll probably say," Fine, I’m all right," but you’ve put a bug in his ear. ——Maybe now he’s not sure. If you are a good friend, you may have seen something in his face, or his walk, that he overlooked(忽略)that morning. It starts him worrying a little. First thing you know, he looks in a mirror to see if everything is all right, while you go merrily on your way asking someone else. "How do you feel?"
    Every question has its time and place. It’s perfectly acceptable, for example, to ask "How do you feel?" if you’re visiting a close friend in hospital. But if the fellow is walking on both legs, hurrying take a train, or sitting at his desk working, it’s no time to ask him that silly question.
    When George Bernard Shaw, the famous writer of plays, was in his eighties, someone asked him, "How do you feel?" Shaw put him in his place. "When you reach my age," he said, "either you feel all right or you’re dead."
    小题1:According to the writer, greetings such as "how do you feel"_______. 
    A．show one’s consideration for others. B．are a good way to make friends
    C．are proper to ask a man in actionD．generally make one feel uneasy.
    小题2:The question "How do you feel" seems to be correct and suitable when asked of________.
    A．a man working at his desk.B．a person having lost a close friend.
    C．a stranger who looks worried.D．a friend who is ill.
    小题3:The writer seems to feel that a busy man should _______.
    A．be praised for his efforts.B．never be asked any question.
    C．not be bothered(烦扰).D．be discouraged from working so hard.
    小题4:You’ve put a bug in his ear means that you’ve ________.
    A．made him laugh.B．shown concern for him
    C．made fun of himD． given him some kind of warning.

    I keep hammering this because I keep seeing people who don’t do it.
    1. Look up English to Elvish.
    2. Look up the Elvish word in the best Elvish dictionary you have, and, preferably, find out the context（上下文） in Tolkien’s language dictionary.
    3. Change the word to suit rules of grammar: singular or plural, mutations, verb tenses, etc.
    You cannot leave out any of these steps. If you do, you’re almost certain to have errors. Why you have to do step 2:
    Languages never match up one- to-one. English and Elvish are closer than usual, but there are still problems. And English has strange idioms: why are there no baths or beds in public bathrooms or restrooms? You can’t translate literally（逐字地）. You have to understand the meaning behind each word.
    In Elvish this is even more true, since our dictionaries contain more or less questionable reconstructions, and words that Tolkien later threw away or replaced. Find the best one you can.
    Consider the word “fair”. We tend to use it to mean “just”. Tolkien tends to use it to mean “beautiful”. In Elvish, these are two entirely different words. So when you look up “fair”, you’ll have to go to the Elvish dictionary to see that you’ve got the right one.
    Consider the nightmare（噩梦）of He left the bar. Is “left” the opposite of “right” （which also has two meanings） ? Is “bar” extruded steel（型材钢）, or something to do with law? You have to know what words mean in both languages.
    And you’d be amazed at how many people ignore step 3, forgetting that language is more than a string of words, and there are rules about how to fit those words together. You can’t simply look up the word “I” and use it everywhere. Sometimes you need “me” or “my”. There’s a reason it takes a while to learn a language: you have to learn the rules.
    It drives me completely mad when people give a questionable translation they insist is right because “it’s in the dictionary”. A dictionary is a tool, a resource. but its entries（词目）should not be mistaken for a finished product. They are raw materials.
    小题1:The underlined word “this” in paragraph 1 refers to         .
    A．consulting the dictionaries when translating between languages
    B．finding out the true meaning in context
    C．ignoring the rules of grammar
    D．leaving out some of the three steps the author mentions
    小题2: According to the author, you have to do step 2 because         .
    A．you have to understand the meaning behind each word
    B．Elvish and English are quite different in forms
    C．there are no baths or beds in public bathrooms
    D．Elvish has some words which are hard to find
    小题3:Grammar is also very important because it         .
    A．helps fit the words together
    B．takes a while to learn a language
    C．is a rule to obey
    D．is often forgotten in translating
    小题4:In the last paragraph, the author shows         .
    A．his impatience to those who insist their wrong translation is right
    B．his puzzle to the questionable translation
    C．the importance of the correct use of dictionaries
    D．the mistaken entries in the dictionaries
    小题5: The passage is mainly about how to         .
    A．learn a foreign language with a dictionary
    B．avoid errors when looking up a dictionary
    C．understand the meaning of a strange word
    D．use a dictionary to translate between languages

    Recently I gave my adult students homework. It was “go to someone you love and tell them you love them.” It has to be someone you have never said those words to before or at least haven’t shared those words with for a long time.
    It sounds like very tough homework since most of the men were over 35 and were raised in the generation of men that were taught expressing emotions is not “macho (阳刚之气).” Showing feelings or crying was just not done. So this was very threatening homework for some.
    At the beginning of our next class, I asked if someone wanted to share what happened when they told someone they loved them. I fully expected one of the women to volunteer, as was usually the case, but on this evening one of the men raised his hand, quite moved and a bit shaken.
    As he unfolded out of his chair (all 1.85 meters of him), he began by saying, “Dennis, I was quite angry with you last week when you gave us this homework. Who were you to tell me to do something that personal?”
    “But as I began driving home my conscience (良心)started telling me that I knew exactly who I needed to say ‘I love you’ to.”
    “Five years ago, my father and I had a severe disagreement and really never settled it since then. We avoided seeing each other unless we absolutely had to at Christmas or other family gatherings. But even then, we hardly spoke to each other.”
    “So last Tuesday by the time I got home I had convinced myself. I was going to tell my father I loved him. It’s strange, but just making that decision seemed to lift a heavy load off my chest.”
    小题1: The homework is threatening for some students because_________.
    A．they are middle-aged peopleB．they are not macho enough
    C．they were taught to hide their emotionsD．they didn’t know how to show feelings
    小题2: From the passage we know that_________.
    A．the adult students have classes in the day time only
    B．not all the adult students in the writer’s class are male
    C．the man refused to meet his father after their quarrel
    D．the man quickly decided to say “I love you” to his father
    小题3: The underlined phrase “unfolded out of his chair” in Para 4 is closest in meaning to_________.
    A．stood on his chair straightB．sat quietly in the chair
    C．bent himself over his chairD．raised himself slowly from the chair
    小题4: What does the man imply by saying the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?
    A．He felt it too strange to say “I love you” to his father.
    B．He felt relaxed just thinking of saying “I love you” to his father.
    C．He felt very relaxed after saying “I love you” to his father.
    D．He had to lift a heavy load off his chest before saying “I love you”.

    As we grow up, we gradually develop a set of our own values or beliefs. These are influenced by society, our family, the education we receive and so on. Once this value system is set up, it’s not easy to change later in life. Financial experts say that everyone also has his own belief of how to manage his money. According to our different values, experts put us in three catagories---the ant, the cricket(蟋蟀) and the snail.
    ★ The ant — work first
    Just like ants who work heart and soul in summer in order to store food for winter, these people don't care about enjoying the moment. They work very hard and save money they earn so that they can enjoy life when they get old and retire. The ant loves to save, but they could make more out of their money if they were willing to invest in some funds and stocks with low risk.
    ★ The cricket — fun first
    The cricket wants to enjoy everything now and doesn't think too much about the future. They even borrow money when they really want something. Many young people now belong to this group. These people have little savings. When they get old, they might have problems. They should learn to save and buy insurance.
    ★ The snail — life under pressure
    The snail refers to people who make life difficult for themselves. They take big long-term loans(贷款) from the bank in order to buy things such as luxury houses. They are happy to take big loans even though they are not sure they can afford them. This can cause problems in the future. They should plan more carefully.
    小题1: One’s values may________.
    A．be his ways of managing money
    B．be his beliefs about society
    C．be connected with his education
    D．influence his behavior
    小题2: Mr. Smith always enjoys spending a weekend with his friends, fishing, hunting and playing cards. Besides, he spends money in a very luxurious way. So_______.
    A．Mr. Smith belongs to the ant type
    B．Mr. Smith belongs to the cricket type
    C．Mr. Smith belongs to the snail type
    D．it’s hard to tell which kind of person Mr. Smith is
    小题3:The writer of the passage intends _______.
    A．to introduce to us the three types of people with different life style
    B．to show us his special attitude to the different people
    C．to tell us life is full of joy and happiness all the time
    D．to warn us how to live a better life in a new way
    小题4:According to the passage, the most suitable title would be _______.
    A．Nature of Spending
    B．What Comes First
    C．How to Understand Your Belief
    D．Work and Fun
