We arranged that Kissinger(基辛格) would fly to Vietnam early in July and then stop in Pakistan on the way back. There he would develop a stomachache that would require him to stay in bed and not be seen by the press. Then, with President Yapha’s help, he would be taken to the airport where a Pakistani jet would fly him over the mountains to China.

Kissinger’s trip was given the name Polo after Marco Polo, another Western traveler who made history by journey in China. Everything went quite smoothly. His slight illness in Islamabad received only small attention from reporters covering him. They accepted the story that he would be kept shut up for at least a few days and began making arrangements for their own activities.

Because of the need for complete secrecy and the lack of any direct communication facilities between Beijing and Washington, I knew that we would have no word from Kissinger while he was in China. Even after he had returned to Pakistan, it would still be important to keep it secret, so before Kissinger left, we agreed on a single code word – Eureka – which he would use if his missions were successful and the presidential trip had been arranged. On July 11, Al Haig, who knew our code work, phoned to say that a cable(电传) from Kissinger had arrived.

“What’s the message?” I asked. “Eureka”. he replied.

1.Kissinger stopped in Pakistan because ___________.

A. he had a stomachache

B. he needed President Yapha’s help in carrying out a secret plan

C. he did not want to be seen by the press

D. he would like to take a Pakistani jet on his way back

2.The reporter in Islamabad believed that ___________.

A. Marco Polo made a trip to China

B. Kissinger would make a journey to China

D. Kissinger was sick

3.Washington would have no word from Kissinger while he was in China, mainly because ___________.

A. the trip must be kept secret

B. president Yapha would not fly together with Kissinger

C. communication between China and Islamabad was impossible

D. Al Haig would phone to the author to tell him about Kissinger’s trip

4.From the passage we can infer that Kissinger’s cable carrying the message “Eureka” must have been sent ______.

A. before he had left Beijing

B. soon after he had returned to Pakistan from China

C. as soon as he had arrived in Washington on July 11

D. before he returned to Pakistan on July 11

Time to give thanks

When it comes to Thanksgiving, turkey may be the first thing that comes to mind. It’s the right picture, but it’s not complete.

Celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November every year, Thanksgiving Day is a time for thanksgiving and feasts.It’s about expressing your gratitude to the important people and all the good things in your life.

Americans celebrate Thanksgiving with much warmth and keep many traditional customs.Here we introduce two of the rules Americans typically follow on this day.

1.Time for prayers and paying back

Thanksgiving Day has been associated with prayers in church and in homes for centuries.Attending church prayer services in the morning is the first step of many celebrators on Thanksgiving Day.The churches provide worship (礼拜) services and organize special events for the occasion.

Before Thanksgiving meals, some families gather together and read prayers to thank God for his kindness and the gifts he has bestowed upon (给予) them in the form of friends and family.

Some people also do voluntary community work on this day, as a way of paying back.

2.Family reunions and showing gratitude

Like China’s Spring Festival, preparing a big meal and bringing the family together at home is a long-standing tradition of Thanksgiving.Distances don’t really matter as relatives return home to be with their family, no matter how far away.
