I often read of incidents of misunderstanding or conflict. I'm left . Why do these people create mistrust and problems, especially with those from other ?
I was growing up in Kuala Lumpur in the early 1960s, children from different races and religions played and studied in harmony. At that time my family lived a stone's from Ismail's. And no one was bothered that Ismail was a Malay Muslim and I was an Indian Hindu—we just our differences. Perhaps,our elders had not filled our heads with unnecessary advice, well or otherwise.
We were nine when we became friends. During the school holidays, we 'd the countryside on our bicycles,hoping to the unexpected. At times Ismail would accompany my family as we made a rare shopping trip to town. We would be glad of his .
When I was twelve, my family moved to Johor. Ismail's family later returned to their village, and I touch with him. One spring afternoon in 1983, I stopped a taxi in Kuala Lumpur. I my destination. The driver acknowledged my but did not move off. Instead, he looked at me. “Raddar?" he said, using my childhood nickname (綽號(hào)).I was astonished at being so addressed (稱(chēng)呼).Unexpectedly! It was Ismail! Even after two we still recognized each other. Grasping his shoulder, I felt a true affection, something to describe.
If we can allow our children to be without prejudice, they'll build friendships with people,regardless of race or religion, who will be their side through thick and thin. On such friendships are societies built and we can truly be, as William Shakespeare once wrote, “We happy few. We band of brothers".

Without most people realizing it, there has been revolution in office work over the last ten years. Before that time, large computers were only used by large rich companies that could afford the investment. With the advancement of technology, small computers have come onto the market which are capable of doing the work which used to be done by much larger and expensive computers, so now most smaller companies can use them.
The main development in small computers has been in the field of word processor system, or WPS as they are often called. 40% of British offices are now estimated to have a word processor and this percentage is growing fast.
There are many advantages in using a word processor for both secretary and manager. The secretary is freed from a lot of daily work, such as retyping letters and storing papers. He or she can use this time to do other more interesting work for the boss. From a manager's point of view, secretarial time is being made better use of and money can be saved by doing daily jobs automatically outside office hours.
But is it all good? If a lot of daily secretarial work can be done automatically, surely this will mean that fewer secretaries will be needed. Another worry is the increasing medical problems related to work with visual display units (顯示器). The unease of a slow loss of sight among people using word processors seems to have risen greatly. It is also feared that if a woman works at a VDU for long hours, the unborn child in her body might be killed. Safety screens to put over a VDU have been invented but few companies in England bother to buy them.
Whatever the arguments for and against word processors, they are a key feature of this revolution in office practice.
1.Ten years ago, large computers were only used by large companies because _________.
A. small companies did not have enough money to buy such expensive computers
B. large computers could not do the work that small companies can do today
C. large computers did not come onto the market
D. small companies did not need to use this new technology
2.According to the writer, the main progress made in office work over the last ten years is ________.
A. the saving of time and money
B. the use of computers in big companies
C. the wide use of word processors
D. the decreasing number of secretaries
3.We can infer from the passage that with the use of word processors, _________.
A. some secretaries will lose their jobs
B. all jobs can be done automatically outside office hours
C. medical problems related to work with a VDU must have increased
D. the British companies will make less money
4.Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. There are both advantages and disadvantages in using a word processor.
B. The British companies care much for the health of the people using word processors.
C. The technology in the field of computers has been greatly advanced over the last ten years.
D. Using word processors, secretaries can get more time to do more interesting work for their bosses.

China is now sending more college students to study in the United States than any other country. A new report shows a 23 percent increase in the number of Chinese students coming to the U.S.
The latest edition of the annual Institute of International Education (IIE) and another US institute found a 5 percent rise in the number of international university students in the US compared to one year ago. There are now over 157, 000 Chinese students at U.S. colleges and universities.
Asia accounted for four of the top five countries and regions to take advantage of the US higher education system. “Increased numbers of students from China, particularly at the undergraduate level, largely accounts for the growth this past year,” the report stated. “They really enroll in a full range of US higher education,” said Peggy Blumenthal, senior counselor to the president of IIE, the group that made the report. “20 years ago, students from China only knew of a handful of US institutions, but now, they are enrolling in our community colleges, in our small liberal arts institutions, in the research universities. Really spread across the country,” she said.
Chinese mainland was in the number one spot, while India was the number two country of origin. South Korea was the third and Canada was number four. China’s Taiwan held the number five spot. Saudi Arabia was in sixth with a 44-percent increase, while Japan was seventh, down 14 percent.
Blumenthal associates the increase in the number of Chinese students heading to US colleges to limited university places in China, as well as a feeling from students and their parents than they want a “unique” educational experience. China’s family planning policy, says Blumenthal, has also meant that families can concentrate resources on a single child.
The University of California at Los Angeles has one of the largest Asian student populations of any college in the United States.
1. Which ranked the third place sharing US higher education?
A. Saudi ArabiaB. South Korea
C. Canada D. India
2.Why is the number of Chinese students going to the US increasing?
A. The US colleges are better than those in China.
B. Each family in China has only one child.
C. China lacks enough educational resources.
D. Chinese students can enter varieties of US colleges.
3.Which of the following is right according to Peggy Blumenthal?
A. The number of Chinese students going to the US has increased by 23%.
B. The University of California has contributed to Asian education greatly.
C. Chinese student populations in the US mainly consist of undergraduates.
D. Chinese students know more about US higher education than before.
4. The best title for the passage can be ________.
A. Chinese College Students Rush to US Schools
B. The Large Number of Chinese Students in the US
C. Chinese Students Make Up Largely Foreign Students in the US
D. Asian Middle School Students in the US Universities

I begged you but you wanted to. How about right now?” I waited for the refusal.But instead, he considered thoughtfully and then said, “Let’s hit the floor and I’ll you just what kind of moves an old guy like me can still make.” My father took me in his and I felt overcome by emotion. As we danced I looked up at my father carefully but he my eyes. “Dad,” I finally , tears in my eyes, “Why is it so hard for you to look at me?” At last his eyes dropped to my face.“ I love you so much.” he whispered back.I was struck dumb by his .It wasn’t what I had thought.But it was of course exactly what I needed to .I had always known that he loved me.

No one knows for sure when advertising first started. It is possible that it grew out of the discovery that some people did certain kinds of work better than others did them. That led to the concept of specialization, which means that people would specialize, or focus, on doing one specific job.
Let's take a man we'll call Mr. Fielder, for example. He did everything connected with farming. He planted seeds, tended the fields, and harvested and sold his crops. At the same time, he did many other jobs on the farm. However, he didn't make the bricks for his house, cut his trees into boards, make the plows(犁), or any of the other hundreds of things a farm needs. Instead, he got them from people who specialized in doing each of those things.
Suppose there was another man we shall call Mr. Plowright. Using what he knew about farming and working with iron, Mr. Plowright invented a plow that made farming easier. Mr. Plowright did not really like farming himself and wanted to specialize in making really good plows. Perhaps, he thought, other farmers will trade what they grow for one of my plows.
How did Mr. Plowright let people know what he was doing? Why, he advertised, of course. First he opened a shop and then he put up a sign outside the shop to attract customers. That sign may have been no more than a plow carved into a piece of wood and a simple arrow pointing to the shop door. It was probably all the information people needed to find Mr. Plowright and his really good plows.
Many historians believe that the first outdoor signs were used about five thousand years ago. Even before most people could read, they understood such signs. Shopkeepers would carve into stone, clay, or wood symbols for the products they had for sale.
A medium, in advertising talk, is the way you communicate your message. You might say that the first medium used in advertising was signs with symbols. The second medium was audio, or sound, although that term is not used exactly in the way we use it today. Originally, just the human voice and maybe some kind of simple instrument, such as a bell, were used to get people's attention.
A crier, in the historical sense, is not someone who weeps easily. It is someone, probably a man, with a voice loud enough to be heard over the other noises of a city. In ancient Egypt, shopkeepers might hire such a person to spread the news about their products. Often this earliest form of advertising involved a newly arrived ship loaded with goods. Perhaps the crier described the goods, explained where they came from, and praised their quality. His job was, in other words, not too different from a TV or radio commercial in today's world.
1.What probably led to the start of advertising?
A.The discovery of iron.
B. The specialization of labor.
C.The appearance of new jobs.
D.The development of farming techniques.
2.To advertise his plows, Mr. Plowright ________.
A.praised his plows in public
B.placed a sign outside the shop
C.hung an arrow pointing to the shop
D.showed his products to the customers
3.The writer makes up the two stories of Mr. Fielder and Mr. Plowright in order to ________.
A.explain the origin of advertising
B.predict the future of advertising
C.expose problems in advertising
D.provide suggestions for advertising
4.In ancient Egypt, a crier was probably someone who ________.
A.owned a ship
B.had the loudest voice
C.ran a shop selling goods to farmers
D.functioned like today's TV or radio commercial
5.The last two paragraphs are mainly about ________.
A.the history of advertising
B.the benefits of advertising
C.the early forms of advertising
D.the basic design of advertising
