I was 18 when Tim and I began to date. Shy and quiet, I’d met his parents once before but hadn’t ventured to say more than “ Hello”. This particular evening, however, we were taking them out to dinner for their anniversary and I wanted to make a good impression.

Tim and his parents arrived and I was out the door in a flash. My good impression began with “ punctual”. I sat in the backseat beside Tim nervously watching his father’s eyes glance into the rearview mirror to examine me.

Tim and his parents had already decided on their favorite Mexican restaurant and that was fine with me; the dim lighting would hide the rising flush of my cheeks, and if anyone noticed, I could blame it on the peppers. With proper table manners I managed to survive halfway through dinner without making any unforgivable mistakes. However, in the midst of conversation I reached for my iced tea, raised the glass to my lips and very quickly discovered I had picked up the wrong glass.

I quickly lowered the glass and set it back but it was too late; I had burnt my eyebrows, the hair in my nose, and curl over my forehead! I looked up slowly, praying no one had seen me, but all eyes at the table had seen and each face stared at me in shocked silence. Excusing myself, I ran to the restroom.

I would have hidden there forever but I’d barely gotten in the door when Tim’s mother arrived. “ Ah, honey,” she said, holding out her arms to me. “ Everything will be just fine.”

Tim and I eventually married. We had a small ceremony and a family reception afterwards held at the very restaurant where this incident occurred. This time, however, I didn’t drink any candles… only a Margarita（一種雞尾酒名）; they were served in different glasses.

1.It can be inferred from the passage that___________.

A. the author had never met her parents-in-law before dinning together

B. Tim and the author took the bus to get to the restaurant

C. Tim’s father was curious to know about the author

D. Tim’s mother was not satisfied with the author’s behavior

2.According to the passage, the author______________.

A. felt very sorry for being late meeting Tim’s parents

B. mistook wine for drinks and got drunk

C. had her eyebrows burnt because of her nervousness

D. left a bad impression on Tim’s parents

3.What would be the best title of the passage?

A. Please Don’t Drink the Candles

B. Please Don’t Light the Candles

C. Please Behave Yourself

D. You Can Never Make a First Impression for a Second Time

Certainly, a well-rounded education is the foundation from which all of us spring forth. I am grateful to the many incredible teachers who have inspired me to do greater things, and have fired my enthusiasm for everlasting learning!

I have also been honored to have the most amazing teachers in all of my children's lives. These are extraordinary people who not only teach our children, but love them, challenge them, and provide an environment where a child learns how to learn.

But, sometimes I wonder if the outline of our educational plan is lacking something. I watched the movie Easy A with my older daughter. The main character's parents were loving, supportive, and built great confidence in their daughter and developed her ability to handle her own problems.

There was a scene where the mother was speaking to the younger child and he announced that he received an "A" on his spelling test. She replied, "That' s great, honey, but everything has spell check these days. " It was funny --- but TRUE ! I don't mean that we shouldn't teach our children how to spell, but maybe some of our time should be spent educating them about the dangers of posting things on Facebook.

Maybe we might want to spend time showing them how real life works - the credit card isn't free money - you will have to pay it back at sometime. Oh, and get this - they charge you for borrowing that money. Perhaps, we should spend some time on interpersonal relationships. I worry that our kids do not know how to relate to one another.

Choosing a career (職業(yè)) is a daunting task. My daughter is in her second year in college and has changed her major twice. It' s not that she didn't know what she wanted to do. What she "wanted to do" and the degree she chose did not match.

I have learned many college students do not know what they want to do because they haven' t seen what it looks like in the real world. Being a journalist in the real world looks very different from writing stories. Maybe if we spent some time exposing them to real life experience - maybe two or three courses m areas of interest in high school that give them a "feel" for what that particular field would look like, they might be better prepared. I do not know the solution, but it seems that it should at least be a topic of discussion.

1. Why does the author mention the movie Easy A?

A. To prove the importance of book learning.

B. To show the parents' ignorance of spelling.

C. To lead to the topic he is going to talk about.

D. To share with the readers his feeling about the movie.

2.The author believes that

A. students need to focus on the skills in learning

B. parents and school should be consistent in education

C. his daughter is smart enough to make her own choice

D. courses in areas of interest in high schools will benefit students

3.The underlined word "daunting" in Paragraph 6 probably means_____

A. discouraging B. specific

C. rewarding D. regular

4.What is mainly discussed in the passage?

A. Schools should prepare students for the real life.

B. What students learn in school should be practiced in life.

C. Life experience is of greater importance than school education.

D. Students should spend more time discussing practical problems.

Third-generation mobile phones, known as 3G, are the next big step for the telecom industry．Data speed in 3G networks is much quicker than that in present technology．This means users can have high-speed Internet access and enjoy video and CD-quality music on their phones．

"Mobile data is not a dream; it's not an option but a requirement," said Len Lauer, head of a U．S．Communications company, Sprint PCS, at a 3G conference in Bangkok earlier this month．

With 3G, you can forget about text messages telling you yesterday's news; a 3G phone can receive video news programs, updated four times a day．Internet access will also be much quicker, making it easier to surf the Web on your phone than on your computer at home．

Face-to-Face video calls

Don't worry about getting lost, 3G phones offer map services so you can find a new restaurant just by pressing a few keys on your handset．

However, the most impressive part of 3G technology is video calling．With live two-way video communication, you can have face-to-face talks with friends and family on your mobile phone．

Many European countries have already launched the services．In May 2000 the U．S．Government issued five license to run 3G wireless services, while the first 3G phones arrived in Italy in March this year．

International telecom companies can't wait to sell 3G in China, the world's largest mobile telecommunications market．But they will have to be patient．At the moment, China is busy testing its 3G-based technologies, networks and services．This will be followed by a trial period before the phones can finally hit the shops．

"We need to create a pool of 3G customers before the large-scale commercial launch of the service," said Fan Yunjun, marketing manager for Beijing Mobile．"We expect that the 3G licences will be issued late next year．"
