A Beautiful Moment
When I was in high school.I worked part﹣time helping Dad sell fruits and vegetables at a market. One day,as I was preparing the fruits,a little boy came by with his mom and sister. He was about eight years old,and the girl,five or six. They were looking the fruits in front of me. I heard the kids say to their mom in French,"They're good!" I knew it was French,because I can speak and understand it.
Then I noticed how the mom was picking the fruits.At first I thought she was really looking at the fruits because she was facing them. But then I noticed how much she had to feel and smell each one as she picked them out. And she often asked her son if it looked okay, but looked way above where his face was. Putting what I saw together,I was sure she was blind.
Both of the kids continued to help their mom pick out the fruits.The son made sure the fruits were not obviously bad, and the daughter handed them to her mom. The woman then felt each one and smiled, and the daughter would put them into their basket.The kids were smiling while helping their mom pick the fruits out.
Their smile and gentle manner moved me in a way that never happened before.It was so beautiful to see such young kids so willingly help. Most kids that age would be picking out candies or toys in a store for themselves, instead of helping their mom pick out fruits as the two kids did.
It was great to witness the moment, but not so great because I didn't tell the mom how beautiful her children were in their language.this is what I regret to this day.

Do you know what you'd like to be when you grow up? It takes most people many years to find this out. For the young artist Alexandra Nechita, it never really seemed to be a question. From the day she began drawing at the age of two, she was an artist.
Alexandra Nechita was born in Romania in 1985and moved to California when she was still a baby. As a little child, she loved colouring in her colouring books. Her parents hoped she could spend more time playing with other children, so they took away her colouring books. Alexandra began drawing her own pictures and colouring them in.
By the time Alexandra was seven years old, she had begun painting with oil paints. When Alexandra took a local art class, her teacher was amazed at the young artist's unusual style of painting. Alexandra's work was similar in some ways to the paintings by famous artists like Picasso. These artists did not use a realistic style of painting. They allowed their imaginations to play an important part in their work. The interesting thing was that little Alexandra had never seen the work of these artists. People called her "Little Picasso". This was a great honour, but Alexandra's style of painting was all her own.
Alexandra's first public show was held at a Los Angeles public library when she was only eight years old. People were amazed at how young Alexandra was, but mostly they loved her imaginative artwork. It did not take long for Alexandra and her work to become famous. She appeared on television programs and in newspapers and magazines all over the world. The sale of a single piece can earn the young artist thousands of dollars. But that is not why Alexandra creates artwork. She just cannot imagine doing anything else that would bring her such joy and satisfaction.
Today, Alexandra is a full﹣time artist. She also works to help support the arts in schools. Alexandra is a strong believer in the power of art as a tool of communication and a bridge to building peace throughout the world.

Then Jack broke off his horse's head, Sad for his toy, then cried with joy As his young friend Joe said: Did you think I would leave you crying When there's room on my horse for two?

Climb up here, Joe, we'll soon be flying I can go just as fast with two. Now we are both real soldiers And our horses are not toys And I remember When we were two little boys. |

Say you're sitting around with some friends playing video games and someone mentions a game that happens to be one of your favorites."Oh,that game's easy.So not worth the time,"one of your friends says.The others agree.Although you enjoy the game quite a lot,not wanting to argue with them,you go along with the crowd.
You have just experienced what is commonly referred to as peer pressure(同伴压力),also called peer
influence.You will adopt a certain type of behavior,dress,or attitude in order to be accepted as part of a group of your"peers".As a teen,you are likely to have experienced the effect of peer pressure in a number of different areas.
We are all influenced by our peers at any age.For teens,as school and other activities take you away
from home,you may spend more time with your friends than with your family.As you become more
independent,your peers naturally play a greater role in your life.
According to Dr.Casey from Cornell University,teens are very quick and accurate in making decisions
on their own and in situations where they have time to think.However,when they make decisions in the
heat of the momentor in social situations,their decisions are often influenced by factors like peers.In a
recent study,teen volunteers played a video driving game,either alone or with friends watching.The
researchers discovered that the number of risks teens took more than doubled when their friends were
watching,compared with when they played alone.This shows that teens may find it more difficult to control risky behavior when their friends are around,or in situations where they are extremely angry.
Just as people can influence us to make unwise choices,they can also influence us to make good ones.A teen might join in a volunteer project because his or her friends are doing it,or get good grades because his or her friends think getting good grades is important.In fact,friends often encourage each other to study,or try out for sports.
While we are always influenced by those around us,the decision to act or not is up to us.So when it
comes to decision making,the choice is up to you.
52.According to the passage,Dr.Casey probably agrees that teens .
A.like to play driving games with their friends
B.prefer situations where they have time to think
C.may take more risks when their friends are around
D.are slow in making decisions when they are on their own
53.The words" in the heat of the moment"in Paragraph 4 probably mean" ".
A.when teens avoid possible risks
B.when teens trust their judgment
C.when teens lose control over their anger
D.when teens give consideration to situations
54.What can we learn from the passage?
A.Teens are eager to be different from their peers.
B.Peer pressure has effects on both teens and adults.
C.Peer pressure does more harm than good to teens.
D.Tees think it challenging to get good grades at school.
55.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A.Peer Pressure:Is It Necessary to Deal with It?
B.Peer Pressure:Is It Possible to Get Away from It?
C.Peer Pressure:Its Benefits to Teens and Friend Making
D.Peer Pressure:Its Influence on Teens and Decision Making.
"Will you come with us,Susan?"cried several girls."We are going to the woods,do come,too."
"I should like to go with you,"replied Susan,"but I can't finish the task Grandmother set me to do."
"How boring it must be to stay at home to work on a holiday!"said one of them,shaking her head."Susan's grandmother is too strict."
At this,Susan lowered her head,wiped away a tear,and thought of the pleasant afternoon the girls would spend gathering wild flowers.

"Grandmother,"said she,a few minutes afterwards,"I'm ready now."

"True,Susan,"said she,"true,I have counted it,and,as you've never deceived(欺骗)me,you may go and enjoy yourself."
Susan's face turned red,and she did not say"thank you".As she left,she walked slowly away,not singing as usual.
"Why,here is Susan!"the girls cried."But what is the matter? Why have you left your dear grandmother?"they jokingly added.
"It's nothing."As Susan replied,she felt she was trying to deceive herself.
When the girls had reached an open space,they ran about enjoying themselves except Susan.Sitting on the grass,how she wished she were at home confessing(承认) her fault.
After a while Rose cried out,"Let's make a crown of violets,and put it on the head of the best girl here."
"It will be easy enough to make the crown.but not so easy to decide who is to wear it,"said Julia.
"Why,Susan is to wear it,of course,"said Rose,"is she not said to be the best girl in school and the most obedient(顺从的) at home?"
"Yes,yes,the crown shall be for Susan,"cried the other girls.
"Now,Susan,"said Rose,"put it on in a very careful way,for you are to be our queen."
The crown was placed on Susan's head.But in a moment,she snatched it off,threw it on the ground and said,"No crown for me;I do not deserve(值得)it."
The girls looked at her with surprise,"I have deceived my grandmother,"said she,while tears flowed down her cheeks.
"Do you think that bad?"asked one of the girls.
"I'm sure it is and I have been miserable all the time I have been here."
Susan ran home,as soon as she saw Grandmother,she cried," O Grandmother!I should be punished,for I moved the mark.Do forgive me;I am very sorry and unhappy."
"Susan,"said her grandmother,"I knew it all the time,but I let you go out,hoping that you can realize your fault.I am so glad that you have confessed your fault."

Beijing Opera is the most representative of all Chinese traditional dramatic art forms and the largest Chinese opera form. Having a history of about 200 years, it is developed from absorbing(吸收)many other dramatic forms, mostly from the local drama 'Huiban', which was popular in South China during the 18th century. It is a scenic(戏剧的)art integrating music, performance, literature, aria, and face painting.
Theatrical art forms in many other countries do not present singing, dancing and spoken parts in one single drama. An opera singer, for example, neither dances nor speaks on stage; there are no singing or dancing parts in a modern play; in a dance drama, the dancer has no speaking role and does not sing either. Traditional Chinese drama, including Beijing Opera, is a kind of entertainment which includes spoken parts, singing, dancing and acrobatics.
In addition to its presence in China, Beijing Opera has spread to many other places. Mei Lanfang, one of the most famous performers(表演者)of all time, was the first to introduce Beijing Opera to foreigners and made highly successful tours to foreign countries.
"You will be puzzled(困惑)all the way through and a little bored from time to time; but you will be charmed and interested.

You may study differently from your friends,but your study habits are not wrong!
Kelly and Maria are best friends with a lot in common.They love doing things together,such as going to movies and concerts,shopping,or just sitting at a small cafe.Since they take a lot of the same school subjects,they would love to study together,but they find this impossible.Their working styles are so completely different that they can't be in the same room while they are studying!
Kelly would like to study in a clean,open space,while Maria works best with books,papers and other things around her.Kelly prefers to study in a totally silent room,but Maria loves to play music or even have the TV on.Kelly can sit for hours without moving,and often gets all her homework done in one sitting.Maria,however,is always getting up,and says that she thinks best when she's on the move.
You might be asking yourself:which way of studying gets better results?Many people believe that a silent,tidy setting(环境)is the way to go,▲.Some research has even shown that outside noise and untidiness help some people focus(聚焦)their attention,because it makes them form a "wall" in their mind around what they are doing and improves their focus.

When they went out of the park five hours later,she felt tired and hungry.Right away,they hurried to a McDonald's where her loving husband ordered her a Happy Meal with a chicken hamburger and a large cup of chocolate shake.
Then they were off to the cinema to see the latest movie,complete with a hot dog,popcorn,a big drink and a huge bag of M&M's,her favorite sweets.
After that,the husband drove his heavy wife to the biggest store in the city.There he bought her several dolls that little girls like best.
It was a really busy day.The husband was so proud of what he did for his loving wife.
Finally she went home with her husband and threw herself into the sofa.He asked his loving wife with a big smile, "Well,dear,what was it like being ten years old again?"
Her eyes slowly opened and her expression suddenly changed.
"You fool," she replied a little angrily, "I meant my dress size…"
