When talking about humor, people often refer to famous humorists such as Samuel Langhorne Clemens, better known by the pen-name Mark Twain.

Samuel Langhorne Clemens, America's famous writer, journalist and humorist, was born in Florida on November 30, 1835．He was the sixth of the seven children in the family．As a child, Samuel was often kept indoors because of his poor health.

When Samuel was 12, his father died of a deadly disease and at the age of 13, Samuel had to leave school to make a living．He became a printer's apprentice（學(xué)徒）．A year later, he became skilled at printing by working and studying hard．Samuel was then employed as a printer with pay．After two years, he became an editorial assistant．It was then that young Samuel became aware of his fondness for writing.

When he was 17 years old, Samuel left Hannibal for a printer's job in St．Louis．While staying in St．Louis, Samuel became a river pilot in 1858．His pen-name, Mark Twain, came from his days as a river pilot．It is a river term meaning “safe to sail”.

Because the river trade was brought to a stop by the Civil War in 1861, Samuel began working as a newspaper reporter for several newspapers all over the United States．Samuel's career took off and he became famous when his story The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras Country appeared in the New York Saturday Press on November 18, 1865．Samuel's first book, The Innocents Abroad was published in 1896．The two novels The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (in 1876) and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (in 1885) brought him worldwide popularity．He wrote 28 books and numerous humor stories, letters and plays.

When I was superintendent of schools in Palo Alto, California, Polly Tyner, the president of our board of trustees（董事會）, wrote a letter that was printed in the Palo Alto Times. Polly's son, Jim, had great difficulty in school. He was classified as educationally handicapped and required a great deal of patience on the part of his parents and teachers. But Jim was a happy kid with a great smile that lit up the room. His parents acknowledged his academic difficulties, but always tried to help him see his strengths so that he could walk with pride. Shortly after Jim finished high school, he was killed in a motorcycle accident. After his death, his mother submitted this letter to the newspaper.

Today we buried our 20-year-old son. He was killed instantly in a motorcycle accident on Friday night. How I wish I had known when I talked to him last that it would be the last time. If I had only known I would have said, "Jim, I love you and I'm so very proud of you."

I would have taken the time to count the many blessings he brought to the lives of the many who loved him. I would have taken time to appreciate his beautiful smile, the sound of his laughter, his genuine love of people.

When you put all the good attributes on the scale(天平) and you try to balance all the irritating traits such as the radio which was always too loud, the haircut that wasn't to our liking, the dirty socks under the bed, etc., the irritations don't amount to much.

I won't get another chance to tell my son all I would have wanted him to hear, but, other parents, you do have a chance. Tell your young people what you would want them to hear if you knew it would be your last conversation. The last time I talked to Jim was the day he died. He called me to say, "Hi, Mom! I just called to say I love you. Got to go to work. Bye." He gave me something to treasure forever.

If there is any purpose at all to Jim's death, maybe it is to make others appreciate more of life and to have people, especially families, take the time to let each other know just how much we care.

You may never have another chance. Do it today!

1.Which of the following is NOT true about Jim?

A. He was a boy handicapped and needed lots of patience.

B. He was an optimistic child and was sincere and kind to others.

C. He found a job after his graduation from high school.

D. He held a positive attitude to life despite his great difficulty in learning.

2.The letter submitted by Jim’s mother is intended to____________.

A. be in memory of her son who died at an early age

B. appeal to people to pay attention to road safety

C. remind people to cherish their friends and families

D. show the great sorrow when parents lost their child

3.The underlined word “traits” in the fourth paragraph probably means___________.

A. portraits B. Qualities C. arguments D. habits

4.The passage is most probably entitled__________.

A. A Heart-broken Story B. Memories About Jim

C. Great Parental Love D. Do It Today

BEIJING — China's education authority will tighten the widely criticized policy of “extra credits” for the national college entrance examination to ensure a fairer chance for all exam-takers.

Under the policy, high school students who win awards in national Olympic competitions could get ‘‘extra credits’, up to 20 points for the national college entrance exam. Students with talent in sports and students who are from ethnic groups can also benefit from this policy. The extra credits have increased these students' chances of being admitted by famous universities. Some parents were found to have helped their children fabricate(偽造)award experiences or falsify qualifications to get extra credits.

“It has harmed education equality，” the ministry said.

Xiong Bingqi, vice-chief of the 21st Century Education Research Institute, said the policy is designed to help students who have special talents but may be weak in academic performance to have a chance to receive higher education. It will still be needed but it is time to make the rules fairer," he said.

The ministry said it will reduce the range of competitions whose winners can get extra credits, and limit the winners, privileges.

The new policy will apply to students who begin high school in 2011, it said.

Chen Lei, a mother of a 10-year-old girl, said she welcomed the ministry's policy adjustment as she does not want her daughter to become an Olympic competition geek.

But not all the Chinese parents welcomed the new policy. “It is like a thunderbolt for me. My 13-year-old son has spent so much time studying Olympic math, and participated in so many technological competitions during vacations. It is useless now,” said Dong Wen, a 43-year-old mother.

A student said, “Many students have changed the current study plan, and they can abandon the competition. I will be interested in learning the courses which can improve my abilities.”

Yuan Guiren, minister of education, told China Daily that the reform is an attempt to consider the overall quality of an applicant. “But the country will not stop the national college entrance examination as it is still the most objective way to evaluate talent in China,” he said.

1.It can be inferred from the passage that_____.

A. high school students with talent in sports are weak in academic performance

B. students who win awards in Olympic competitions can't get extra credits in 2011

C. the number of competitions whose winners can be awarded extra credits will be smaller

D. he extra credits have reduced students' chances of being admitted by famous colleges

2.What does the underlined word “geek” probably mean?

A. a winner B. a smart learner

C. a competitor D. a dull student

3.Which person in the passage was strongly against the new policy?

A. Xiong Bingqi B. Chen Lei

C. Dong Wen D. Yuan Guiren

4.What might be the best title for the text?

A. “Extra credits” policy in China to be adjusted

B. Promotion of national Olympic competitions

C. Advice on the national college entrance exam

D. Chinese government to push education reform

New Yorkers and visitors to the Big Apple will get to ring in the Lunar New Year, also known as Chinese New Year in the U.S., in style with a fireworks display on the Hudson River set to music written by Academy Award-winning composer Tan Dun.

The display is part of the second annual “Happy Chinese New Year: Fantastic Art China” festival held in New York on February 5-10, 2016. The China Central Academy of Fine Arts (CAFA), the U.S.-China Cultural Institute and the Cultural Associate of the Committee of 100 announced this year’s events on November 18 at a press conference at the Lincoln Center.

The “Fantastic Art China” festival will feature a larger and more diverse series of artistic and cultural events across New York’s top cultural venues (地點) and landmarks, including the Lincoln Center, Empire State Building and Jacob K. Javits Convention Center.

This year’s theme focuses on exploring the complicated relationship between sound and image, said Professor Yu Ding from CAFA, who is also president of Fantastic Art China and in charge of the festival’s design. Lunar New Year, which celebrates the “Year of the Monkey” in 2016, is an opportunity to bring China’s modern art to mainstream America, and the festival serves as an innovative approach to establishing cultural exchange between China and New York City, Yu said.

UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador Tan Dun’s music is a new edition that will be featured at several venues, including a major art exhibition at the Javits Center, events at the Lincoln Center and the fireworks display on the Hudson, which will take place on the evening of February 6. Five barges (游艇) on the river will launch the fireworks designed by CAFA that will tell a story about celebration and conservation.

“We Chinese are fond of nature, so the best way to celebrate the Lunar New Year is to salute with the sounds of nature, such as sounds of water, stone and bamboo,” said Tan Dun at the press conference, “And it will be fun to use the music of water during the firework display.”

In addition to the fireworks, a special lighting show at the Empire State Building will illuminate New York City during the holiday.

Chinese New Year is being recognized as a public school holiday for the first time in New York. Children from the National Dance Institute, which represents 75 schools, will perform traditional Chinese dances at the Lincoln Center and the Javits Center. And, in celebration of the “Year of the Monkey” events will feature a conservation message about the endangered golden monkey in China.
