Family traditions were important in our house, and one was more appreciated than our annual trip to the woods for the perfect Christmas tree.
“Dad, can we watch when you trim(修剪) it?” my eldest son ,John ,asked on the way home.
“I won’t be cutting this year,” my husband said.” You and your brother Dan are old enough to measure things, fit the tree to the stand and do it by yourselves. Think you boys can handle it?”
They seemed to grow six inches in their chairs at the thought of such an amazing responsibility. “We can handle it,” Dan promised. We won’t let you down.”
A few days before Christmas, Dan and John rushed in after school. They gathered the tools they’d need and brought them out of yard, where the tree waited. I left the older boys to their work and brought David inside for his early supper. A moment later I heard the happy sounds as the boys carried the trees into the living room. Then I heard the sound become dead silence. I hurried out to them. The tree was too short. John crossed his arm tight across his chest. His eyes were filled with angry tears.
The tree was central to our holiday, but it was not what I worried about. I didn’t want the boys to feel ashamed every time they looked at it. We had a terrible problem on our hands. I couldn’t lower the ceiling, and I couldn’t raise the floor either. There was no way to repair the damage. If I couldn’t fix the problem, maybe I could get creative with it. A thought came to my mind, which turned to the solution.
I followed them back into the living room.. “We can’t make the tree taller,” I said. “But we can put it on a higher position.” Dan turned his head sideways, measuring the distance with his eyes . “We can put it on the coffee table and put the lights and decorations on before we lift it up . Thus, we won’t need a ladder. It just might work! Let’s try it!”
When my husband got home and looked at the big tree on top of the coffee table, Dan and John held their breath.
“What a good idea!” he declared, as if the boys had gone beyond all his expectations. “Why didn’t I ever think of such a thing ?”
John broke into a grin. Dan’s chest swelled with pride. David squealed.

A. David B. The writer
C. The children D. The writer’s husband

The wedding(婚禮) took place in a Birmingham hotel. The bride and her father arrived in a new black American sports car. Her father looked nervous and uncomfortable in front of the cameras. The bride wore a silk wedding dress. She smiled nervously at the waiting photographers and went to a room on the first floor where she met her future husband for the very first time.
Carla Germaine and Greg Cordell were the winners of a radio station’s competition. The aim of the competition was to find two strangers prepared to marry without having met each other. Miss Germaine, 23, is a model. Mr. Cordell, 27, is a TV salesman. They were among the two hundred people who entered for a particular “experiment” organized by BMRB radio in Birmingham, England. Greg and Carla were among eight finalists who were interviewed live on radio. They took a lie detector (測(cè)謊儀)test and the station also spoke to their friends and family about their personalities. The competition judges included an astrologer(占卜家)who declared that they were suited.
The couple celebrated their wedding with a wedding breakfast and a party for 100 guests in the evening, but not everyone shared their joy. Miss Germaine’s mother looked anxious through-out the wedding and Mr. Cordell’s parents are reported to be less than delighted.

Below is a passage adapted from the network edition of China Daily.
Event
Li Yang, one of China’s most famous English teachers, apologized for beating his American wife more than a week after she posted photos of her injuries on the web and set off a bomb of criticism. “I wholeheartedly apologize to my wife Kim and my girls for committing domestic violence. This has caused them serious physical and mental damage,” Li said on his microblog at Weibo.com, the country’s most popular social media site, on Saturday. Li, 42, is a mechanics major but is best known for his “Crazy English,” a popular method of language learning that involves yelling at the top of one’s lungs. He was at the center of public criticism after his wife Kim Lee put up posts on the web accusing him of abuse, showing her swollen forehead and knees. |
Voices
@Xuemanzi, angel investor Anti-domestic violence laws should be made as soon as possible, giving protection to the rights of women and children lawfully. Police should not stand back from domestic violence any longer, even if no one reports them. Society, as a whole, should attach greater importance to the crime. @Zhangxiaomei Chinese are never taught about marital(婚姻的) relations, which mean not merely living together. A good marriage needs to overcome three differences: family background, gender and personalities. In addition to these, there is cultural gap in Li Yang’s case. If the effects of these differences are not well understood, after the honeymoon period, they will turn into conflicts and endanger the marriage. Li’s domestic violence is a reminder that China needs such education. @Wuxiaolong, Sina Weibo user Li Yang’s choice to resort to domestic violence really reflects his character. Students who have attended his Crazy English Camp may know what I mean: Li wants his students to worship him as an idol. I still remember he once had his students kowtow(叩頭) to him. He always teaches English by imposition(權(quán)威強(qiáng)制), which directly reflects his desire for power. @Sikaozhe, Sina Weibo user In the US, the punishments for domestic violence are even more severe than stealing. If the police arrive at the wife’s call during a fighting between a couple and find injuries on her, they will immediately arrest the husband. Even if the wife doesn’t call the police, they may also show up as neighbors could well do their part. @ykxin Sina Weibo User Don’t blindly worship anyone, because in every closet there may hide a skeleton. As a famous Chinese saying goes, “Only they who do well in their daily routine tasks can fulfills their dreams on great occasions”. Not surprisingly, one who focuses too much on his career and ignores his family, like Li Yang, will fail in both. Don’t judge a person by his career success, wealth, or any other material aspect, because what finally decides a person is his character. |
Aftermath(余波)
Although Li Yang publicly apologized to his wife, promising to love his daughters even if he and Lee divorce, the damage, perhaps permanently, has been done to his wife, his three daughters and the whole family. Wang Xingjuan, founder of the Maple Women’s Psychological Consulting Center, a non-profit organization, said nearly half of domestic violence abusers are people who have higher education, senior jobs and social status. She said this was probably because such people were usually under more mental stress. |
1.This passage is focused on Li Yang’s .
A.microblog article
B.domestic violence
C.English-teaching career
D.international marriage
2.Zhangxiaomei holds the view that .
A.laws should be passed to protect women and children
B.crazy personality accounts for violence and ill temper
C.overcoming background gap is necessary for marriage
D.Li is wrong to have his students worship him as an idol
3.Who thinks that character plays the most important role in one’s life?
A.@Xuemanzi B.@Sikaozhe
C.@ykxin D.@Zhangxiaomei
4.According to Wang Xingjuan, .
A.people of higher education won’t easily lose temper
B.people under stress tend to have domestic violence
C.people in lower social status often beat their wives
D.people with senior jobs seldom have family trouble

My old digital camera broke down, so I wanted to buy a new one.Being the cautious type, I fancied a reliable brand.So I went on the Net, spent 15 minutes reading product reviews on good websites, wrote down the names of three top recommendations and headed for my nearest big friendly camera store.There in the cupboard was one of the cameras on my list.And it was on special offer.Oh joy.I pointed at it and asked an assistant, "Can I have one of those? " He looked perturbed( 不安)."Do you want to try it first? "he said.It didn' t quite sound like a question."Do I need to?" I replied, "There's nothing wrong with it." This made him look a bit offended and I started to feel bad."No, no.But you should try it," he said encouragingly, "Compare it with the others.
I looked across at the others: shelves of similar cameras placed along the wall, offering a wide range of slightly different prices and discounts, with each company selling a range of models based around the same basic box. With so many models to choose from, it seemed that I would have to spend hours weighing X against Y, always trying to take Z and possibly H into account at the same time. But when I had finished, I would still have only the same two certainties that I had entered the store with: first, soon after I carried my new camera out of the shop, it would be worth half what I paid for it; and second, my wonderful camera would very quickly be replaced by a new model.
But something in the human soul whispers that you can beat these traps by making the right choice, the clever choice, the wise choice.In the end, I agreed to try the model I had chosen.The assistant seemed a sincere man.So I let him take out my chosen camera from the cupboard, show how it took excellent pictures of my fellow shoppers...a(chǎn)nd when he started to introduce the special features, I interrupted to ask whether I needed to buy a carry-case and a memory card as well.Why do we think that new options still offer us anything new? Perhaps it is because they offer an opportunity to avoid facing the fact that our real choices in this culture are far more limited than we would like to imagine.
1.The shop assistant insisted that the writer should ____.
A.trust him and stop asking questions
B.try the camera to see if there was anything wrong with it
C.get more information about different companies.
D. compare the camera he had chosen with the others
2.What does the writer mean by "it would be worth half what I paid for it"( Paragraph 2)?
A.He should get a 50% discount.
B.The price of the camera would soon fall.
C. The quality of the camera was not good.
D.The price of the camera was unreasonably high.
3.The writer decided to try the model he had chosen because he ____.
A.knew very little about it
B.wanted to make sure the one he chose would be the best
C.didn' t trust the shop assistant
D.had a special interest in taking pictures of his fellow shoppers
4.It can be inferred from the passage that in the writer's opinion, __.
A.we waste too much money on cameras
B.cameras have become an important part of our daily life
C.we don' t actually need so many choices when buying a product
D.famous companies care more about profit than quality
