This happened to me at the age of twelve. It seems like a long time to remember the name of the old lady. Yet it keeps in my1that she taught me a lesson in tolerance(寬容) which I shall never forget.
On a winter afternoon, a friend and I were2stones onto the roof of the old lady’s house. I found myself a perfectly smooth stone and threw it out. The stone was too smooth, however, so it slipped(滑) from my hands and3straight not for the roof but for a small window on the old lady’s back porch(門(mén)廊). At the sound of broken4, we knew we were in trouble and ran away.
I was too scared(膽怯) about getting caught by the old lady that first night. However, a few days later, when I was sure that I hadn’t been5, I started to feel guilty(有罪的) for what I had done. She6greeted me with a smile each day when I gave her the newspaper, but I was no longer able to act comfortably.
I made up my mind to7for her window with my paper delivery(發(fā)送) money I collected. I put the money in an envelope with a note explaining I was8for breaking her window and hoped that the seven dollars would cover the cost for repairing it.
I waited9it was dark, snuck(悄悄地走) up to the old lady’s house and put the letter I didn’t sign in her door. Once again, I could have the freedom of lookingstraight10the old lady’s kind eyes.
The next day, I handed the old lady her paper and was able to return the warm smile that I was11from her. She thanked me and gave me a bag of cookies.
Reaching for the cookies, I12an envelope and pulled it out of the bag. When I opened the envelope, I was surprised to see the seven dollars and a short note that said, “I’m proud of you!”

We use the Internet for many things: business, shopping, writing letters, talking to people, finding information, and so on. In recent years, a new kind of English has grown on the Internet. There’s no real word for it yet, so we’ll call it e-talk. People don’t like typing too much. To save time, they turn phrases (短語(yǔ)) into a few letters called acronyms(首字母縮略詞). Acronyms are often used in chat rooms.
Some of them are:
BTW(by the way)     BRB (be right back)
LOL (laughing out loud) IMO (in my opinion)
People also use many abbreviations. They are shortened forms of words. Some common abbreviations are:
info (information)    puter (computer)    pic (picture)      sec (second)
We usually don’t see people when we communicate on the Net, so people have new ways to show feelings. Most people use their keyboards to draw “feeling”, such as:
: ) (happy)     :-( (sad) ;    : P (joking)   : O (surprised)
These days, many forums have picture feelings. For example:
happy          sad         angry        cool
There are even whole new words, like ‘newbie’ (someone who is new on a chat board or forum). When you write something bad about someone else, it’s called ‘flaming’ the person.
It takes time to get used to e-talk. Also, different groups in the Net have their own special ways of communicating. Newbies sometimes have to ask other people what they mean. As the Internet grows, e-talk will continue to grow and change.
【小題1】 Why do people type acronyms?
A．To show their feelings.
B．To make jokes.
C．Because people can type them quickly.
D．In this way, newbies won’t understand them.
【小題2】What does “My puter is not working well. :-( ” mean?
A．The person is happy about getting a new computer.
B．The person has to go away from their computer.
C．The person is angry at somebody.
D．The person is sad that his computer is having problems.
【小題3】If someone is angry, what may he type?
A．B．C．LOLD．BRB
【小題4】E-talk will probably_________.
A．keep changing
B．stay the same
C．be used by people on the telephone
D．be easy for newbies to understand
【小題5】People can do the following through the Internet except _________.
A. doing shopping                B. writing diaries
C. eating foods                   C. playing games

Several years ago， a television reporter was talking to three of the most important people in America. One was a very rich banker, another owned one of the largest companies in the world, and the third owned many buildings in the center of New York.
The reporter was talking to them about being important. “How do we know if someone is really important?” the reporter asked the banker. The banker thought for a few moments and then said,” I think anybody who is invited to the Whiter House to meet the President of the United States is really important. ”
The reporter then turned to the owner of the very large company. “Do you agree with that?” she asked. The man shook his head, “No. I think the President invites a lot of people to the White House. You’d only be important if while you were visiting the President, there was a telephone call from the president of another country, and the President of the US said he was too busy to answer it. ”
The reporter turned to the third man. “Do you think so?”“No, I don’t.” he said. “I don’t think that makes the visitor important. That makes the President important. ”“Then what would make the visitor important?” the reporter and the other two men asked.
“Oh, I think if the visitor to the White House was talking to the President and the phone rang, and the President picked up the receiver, listened and then said, “It’s for you.”
