Mom's Recipe for Life

I have a lot of Mom's recipes in a blue box where all my special ones were put，like the

pumpkin pie she made during my growing up years. Even so，the recipe I treasure most is not on any index card， nor did she send it to me in a letter. Instead，she lived this recipe all of her life.

My mother grew up in a small coal mining town in southwest Iowa. My grandfather once told me that she knew no stranger;she considered everyone in that community her friend. That attitude

continued wherever she lived for the rest of her life.

As a teen，I was embarrassed(尷尬的 )every time my mother talked to strangers and offered a smile to everyone in the store or on the city bus. Almost all of them responded(回 應(yīng) )with a bright smile of their own. Some spoke，others nodded their heads at this elderly woman who brought a little light into their day.

What really sold me on Mom's approach to life was her experience on the senior bus. The weeks I could not be there， she used this low cost transportation to the grocery store. After her first trip， I asked her how it went.

“ Ha!”she said，“ I got on that bus and what did I see?Thirteen little old ladies and one old

man，and not one word was spoken.”

I wondered how long it would be until the silence on that bus would change. On my next visit，Mom mentioned the 13 little old ladies on the bus and something one of them had told her.

“ Oh，are you talking with them now?”I asked.

“ Of course，”she said. “ One day I climbed up the steps of the bus and before I looked for a

seat，I gave them a big smile and I said，‘ Isn't it a wonderful day? I noticed a few shy smiles.”

Mom didn't give up. She greeted them all each time she got on the bus and before long，the

whole group was laughing and talking to one another. The bus became more than just transportation.

When we went to the various stores，I watched as she smiled and chatted with perfect strangers. Some of them looked like the poorest person you'd ever met，but once Mom smiled at them and started a conversation， most responded favorably. My mother didn't embarrass me any longer. I found myself admiring her.

She's been gone for ten years but I've carried on her recipe for life. It was me who had done the

smiling first and all those people had responded. My mother didn't lecture but taught me by example. She'd given me a recipe for life.

【題目】These days shared bikes are becoming the center of attention in my We Chat friend circle. Many of my friends are sharing photos of themselves riding bikes, especially during the weekend in natural parks, and I can see people logging in (登錄) and out of shared bike apps.

I’m very happy that there are shared bikes on the road. They have saved us a lot of time during special situations, and on beautiful, clear days, people enjoy riding them outside the city.

I tried shared bikes last week, and I didn’t like them very much. I think the first shared bikes without baskets are designed for athletes. They are very hard to ride, and the seats are not comfortable. It makes me wonder whether people really like riding shared bikes or are just saying this to agree with others.

A friend secretly told me she tried the bikes to fit in. She doesn’t like bikes and finds Beijing’s roads too hard for bike riding. But recently, the only way to hang out with her friends is riding out of town together. To join in social activities, she had to pick up bike riding again.

Another friend admitted that he started talking about and sharing photos on shared bikes to appear modern and fashionable to friends. He started paying attention when shared bikes first came into use.

These views will give me something new to think about when I ride these bikes again.

回答下面五個(gè)問題，每題答案不超過六個(gè)詞。

【1】Where are shared bikes put?

_______________________________________________________________________________

【2】Who does the writer think the first shared bikes are made for?

【題目】The computer makes doing schoolwork easier for me than it was for my mom and dad. For example, when writing book reports and stores, I use Microsoft Word instead of a pen and paper. That way, after my teacher edits（編輯） my work, I can go back and make revisions without having to rewrite the whole thing. And Microsoft Word has a spell check! I use it all the time.

For English class, we're reading The Outsiders, by S. E. Hinton. As a pre-reading task, my teacher asked us to research teenage groups on the Internet. I tried Google, Encarta, and Yahoo first, and finally found an article on Time. com.

For a geography task on the United States, I used Encarta to learn about the Mississippi River. I needed to find out how deep the river is, how its widths and depths are different, what states it runs through, and what kind of fish live in it. I used the information to show how the geography of a country influences its economy （經(jīng)濟(jì)）. For example, the river's trade paths, the number of fish caught in it, and the tourists it attracts directly influence Southerners'jobs and incomes（收入）.

I never go to the library to do research. It takes too much time. Since I live in New York City and both my parents work, getting to the library isn't always easy. For a big assignment or research project, I used to stay at the library to read, or sign out whatever books or magazine I needed. Now being able to find the information in my own living room makes everything a lot simpler. Online dictionaries and encyclopedias （百科全書） also save time.

Sometimes, I think the computer spoils young people because its so easy---at least physically. But computer's are not like television, which does the thinking for you. You still have to use your mind. I prefer using a computer. Easy, fun, and fast.

【1】When writing book reports, the computer can help the writer.

A. call his teacher to edit his work.

B. go back home and review his work

C. rewrite his work and correct his mistakes

D. store his work and check his spelling mistakes

【2】The writer probably agrees that.

A. a teacher's work is much easier than before

B. English and geography are the most important subjects

C. computers are better than TV for not doing the thinking for us

D. students should use computer less and do more exercise every day

【3】What's the passage mainly about?

A. Teenagers and computers.

B. School subjects and computers.

C. Use of computers in teenagers' studies.

D. The advantages and disadvantages of computers.

【題目】閱讀短文，根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從方框中選擇五個(gè)選項(xiàng)分別填入空白處，使其文理通順。只填序號(hào)。

In the city of Guiyang, China, lives a girl named Li Fang. When she was at teenager, she dreamed of going to the United States. 【1】 “I had a picture of the daddy sitting in the living room, the mommy doing some cooking and their kids playing games on the floor.

Li Fang decided to go to college in California. When she arrived, however, it was not the dream world she had imagined. “People were struggling with problems and often seemed unhappy and too busy,” she said. “【2】”

One of her most difficult classes was P.E. When the class played volleyball, th other students were good at it, but she wasn’t. One afternoon, the P.E. teacher had Li Fang hit the ball to her teammates so that they could knock it over the net. It was not a big deal for most people, but it made Li Fang scared. 【3】

A young man on her team seemed to understand what she was going through. He walked up to her and whispered（小聲說）, “【4】”

Li Fang said, “You will never understand how those words of encouragement made me feel. Four words: You can do that. I felt like crying with happiness.” Perhaps she thanked the young man; she can’t remember it.

Six years has passed. Li Fang is back in China, working as a salesclerk. “I have never forgotten the words. 【5】” She said, “I am sure the young man had no idea how much his kindness meant to me. He probably doesn’t even remember it. From this experience, I have learned a lesson: Whenever you say something to a person—cruel or kind—you have no idea how long the words will stay with them.” She is back in China. But still she hears those four simple words: You can do that.

A. I felt very lonely.

B. Come on. You can do that.

C. Don’t worry. I can help you.

D. When thing are not going well, I think of them.

E. She was afraid of failing and being laughed at by others.

F. Most of what she knew about American life was from textbooks.
