What makes Ferneley’s stand out is their family farm that creates fresh local produce using milk from their own cows. It’s also a great chance for kids to learn more about what goes on at a farm and how they raise their cattle.Halfpenny Green VineyardProducing prize-winning English wines for over 30 years, Halfpenny Green Vineyard, is a wine-lover’s favourite in the green Staffordshire countryside. You can park up your campervan for free and take a guided tour around the site while tasting the produce.

It was made in 1734, in Italy, by Antonio Stradivari. Only about 600 of his violins are believed to still exist. They were regarded as the rarest and best instruments in the world.Roman’s Stradivarius was his musical partner for 38 years. Then bad luck struck; the violin was stolen from his office after a concert while he greeted well-wishers. He was shocked and upset by its loss. “Yes, it’s a bit like losing your arm,” he told his daughter, Jill.It took Roman a year to find and buy a new violin as the size and tones (音质) of each were different from his. He had to learn his musical pieces all over again! Roman kept playing into his 90s and taught at Boston University until he died in 2012, aged 101.His daughter says, “We wondered from time to time if the violin would surface, but... Our mother and father taught us to keep moving forward and not think over what life throws at you.”In 2015, the wife of the man who stole the violin wanted to know if it was really a Stradivarius. She had looked after him when he was dying from cancer and now it belonged to her. She took it to master violin maker and dealer Phillip Injeia. He recognized it immediately and contacted the FBI. Jill, who received the call from FBI, said in an interview, “I said, ‘I have to call my sisters. I’ll tell them not to get their hopes up,’ but Phillip Injeian said, ‘You don’t have to do that. This is the violin.’”Jill said they would sell the violin, not to a collector but someone who would play it. She said it would finally be in the hands of another great artist and its amazing voice would be heard in concert halls around the country.4.Why did Roman feel like he had lost an arm after the violin was stolen?A.It cost him a lot of money.B.It had served as a useful arm.C.It had been his musical partner.D.It was created by a famous maker.5.What is the turning point of this story?A.The FBI got in touch with Jill.B.The Stradivarius was found missing.C.Roman Totenberg died in 2012, aged 101.D.The violin was taken to a master violin maker and dealer.6.Why would the family like the violin to be owned by a violinist?A.They intended to become well-known.B.They wanted to sell it at a higher price.C.They hoped to remember Roman Totenberg.D.They wished to make the most of the Stradivarius.7.Which words can best describe Phillip Injeian?A.Expert and confident.B.Creative and careful.C.Learned and proud.D.Strong-willed and friendly.It’s reported that about 20 percent of the Amazon rainforest has disappeared during thespecies native to the Amazon River area, it’s affecting humans worldwide. When it comes to the protection of the Amazon, it’s hard for many people to relate because they don’t feel connected to the area. There are actually a lot of direct connections, no matter how far away we are.A connection that affects everyone on the planet is climate (气候) change. Planting new trees in the forest is basically a way of removing CO2 from the air. Rain forests have a carbon (碳) reduction nearly equal to half of what is in the air. About half of that is in the Amazon. Another case in point is a big snake called the bushmaster that lives in the Amazon. Today, millions of people use medicines made from its venom (毒液) to treat high blood pressure. So they have longer, fuller, and more productive lives.In the 1960s, there was only one highway in the entire Amazon. That’s an area as large as the continental United States with one highway and three million people. Today, there are between 30 million to 40 million people, countless roads, and about 20 percent forests have been cut down. But on the plus side, 50 years ago there were only two national parks and a national forest and a reserve in Brazil. Today, more than 50 percent of the Amazon is under some form of protection.“There’s been a lot of damage done and forest lost, but nothing is gone until it’s gone”, noted National Geographic explorer Dr. Thomas Lovejoy. “We want to see more shared planning between the departments of transportation, energy, agriculture, and the other industries in the area. We think Amazon cities can have higher quality of life and keep people in existing cities so there’s less reason to deforest.”8.Which can replace the underlined word “Deforestation” in paragraph 1?A.Planting more trees.B.Destroying the forests.C.Protecting the species.D.Polluting the rivers.9.What might the partial loss of the Amazon rainforest lead to?A.The increase of extreme weather.B.The removal of CO2.C.More people with high blood pressure.D.The overgrowth of the bushmaster. 10.How does paragraph 3 mainly develop?A.By making comparisons.B.By listing reasons.C.By explaining a definition.D.By making a summary.11.What is Dr. Thomas’ attitude towards the future of the Amazon rainforest?A.Doubtful.B.Worried.C.Positive.D.Uncaring.While screen time is known to affect sleep, new research suggests that interactive (互动的) activities, such as texting friends or playing video games, put off and reduce the time spent asleep to a greater degree than passive (被动的) screen time like watching television, especially for teens.The team studied the daytime screen-based activities of 475 teenagers using daily surveys. They asked the teens how many hours they had spent that day communicating with friends through social media and how many hours they spent playing video games, surfing the internet and watching television or videos. Finally, the researchers asked if they had joined in any of these activities in the hour before bed.Next, the team measured their sleep time for one week. The researchers found that the teens spent an average of two hours per day communicating with friends via social media, about 1.3 hours playing video games, less than an hour surfing the internet and about 1.7 hours watching television or videos. For every hour throughout the day that they used screens to communicate with friends, they fell asleep about 11 minutes later averagely. For every hour to play video games, they fell asleep about 9 minutes later. Those who talked, texted orplayed games in the hour before bed lost the most sleep: about 30 minutes later.Interestingly, David, lead author of the study, said the team found no obvious relations between passive screen-based activities and sleep. “It could be that passive activities are less mentally exciting than interactive activities,” said Anne, co-author of the study. “It’s a tricky situation,” she said. “These screen tools are really important to everyone nowadays, so it’s hard to put a limit on them, but if you’re really looking out for a teenager’s health and well-being, you might consider limiting the more interactive activities, especially in the hour before bed.”12.Which of the following belongs to interactive screen activities?A.Seeing movies.B.Watching videos.C.Texting friends.D.Surfing the internet.13.Who might lose the most sleep according to the text?A.Lucy who watched a three-hour movie before going to bed.B.Jack who had a 30-minute video chat with his brother before bed.C.Sam who played computer games for two hours throughout the day.D.Amy who chatted with her friends on WeChat for one hour in the morning. 14.What does the underlined word “tricky” mean in paragraph 4?A.Frightening.B.Awkward.C.Hopeless.D.Encouraging. 15.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.Screen time activities cut down our sleep hoursB.Interactive screen use reduces sleep time in teenagersC.Passive screen use is better than interactive screen useD.Parents should prevent children from using social mediaReading is a healthy habit that everyone should develop from childhood because of theThe following will discuss the effects of not reading books, so you can basically consider and judge where you are and understand how reading can be beneficial.17 People who don’t read and don’t like to read find it harder to learn than people who actually read. For example, most students who fail to develop a reading habit find it difficult to get through school. This then leads to students dropping out, which is bad for society. Reading is a habit that strengthens the brain and develops your inborn love ofwanting to learn more. Therefore, not being addicted to books closes you off from this.Narrow mindedness. Reading a variety of books broadens the readers’ mind. Most people who don’t read have a certain narrow mindedness to them that can easily be noticed.18 When you don’t read, you’re forced to take everything at face value and then create and shape your views in this way.Low brain power. One advantage of reading is its ability to improve brain function. Reading can help people become better thinkers and use brains more effectively. People who don’t read usually have low brain power because they don’t exercise the brain as much as readers do. 19Poor imagination. Reading books allows you to tap into your imaginative power. 20 This is important because it expands (拓展) your thought process as well as the ability to understand. People who don’t read books usually are short of the inspiration necessary to create imagination. This makes it difficult to be creative.A.Learning difficulty.B.The reason for this is simple.C.Such exercise strengthens the brain.D.Inability to fully understand the world.E.It then makes you picture what you read.F.It is developed slowly just as any habit would.G.The ability to read is important in today’s world.二、完形填空As Hallee gets to the finish line of the 800-metre run for kids, the crowd is cheeringWhen the twins were five, Jada decided that she wanted to be a(n) 27 .

Grammar and VocabularySection ADirections: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, used one word that best fits each blank.Would you like to travel through time like the Doctor from Doctor Who? Well, according to scientists from the University of British Columbia in Canada and the University of Maryland in the US, it is a mathematical possibility. In a report titled Tardis — a nod to Doctor Who's police box spacecraft, they describe a way 1____________time travel could happen using a machine made of extraordinary materials.To understand 2____________ these scientists have proposed, we first need to go back morethan 100 years. Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity was published in 1915 and explains how the path of light 3____________ (affect) by massive objects, such as planets and stars, that have a huge amount of gravity. Einstein believed that these huge objects bend space and time, allowing light to curve around them. Think of it like this: imagine you're standing in the middle of a trampoline (蹦床) - it will dip downwards. If you put a tennis ball near the edge, it would roll towards you 4____________ it gets to your feet. You are 5____________ a planet: the dip in the trampoline is like the curve in space-time; and the tennis ball is light travelling around the planet.One of the most interesting parts of Einstein's theory was the idea that time 6____________ change, depending on how fast a person is travelling. He believed that if someone were travelling at the speed of light in space then time would pass 7____________ (slowly) for them, compared with someone standing still on Earth. Although this sounds impossible, scientists 8____________ (experiment) with accurate clocks and found that it is true.The scientists based their report on Einstein's theory of bending space-time. They found that if a time machine could travel faster than the speed of light and "bend time into a circle", using something called exotic matter, then they could theoretically travel back in time. 9____________ ____________ the science is correct, the researchers said that it is unlikely anyone would ever achieve it.Ben Tippett, one of the researchers, said, "10____________ it is mathematically feasible (可行的), it is not yet possible to build a space-time machine because we need materials -- which we call exotic matter -- to bend space-time in these impossible ways, but they have yet to be discovered."Section BDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one more word than you need.Pirates had existed for as long as man had sailed the seas. In the 1600s, the sight of the Jolly Roger would 1________ fear into the hearts of even the bravest seamen, and it was at this time that they truly began to rule the 2________.The colonisation of the New World and the birth of the slave trade meant that the oceans were crowded with richly loaded merchant商人ships, and many men and women turned to a life of 3________ on the high seas. And what a life it was! A bottle of rum (朗姆酒) at breakfast, and a day spent stalking ships and trading spoils in pirate havens.These hives (聚居地) of villainy, hidden away on islands in the Caribbean and Indian Oceans, served as 4________ sites for attacks on enemy outposts and merchant ships. Here, pirates could repair their ships away from the watchful eye of the Navy, while taverns and gambling halls provided welcome 5________ for pirates who had spent months at sea.Over the years, pirates' lives became easier and even more lucrative. Sailors knew these bandits were skilled, well-armed, and willing to 6________ it all -- the chance of winning a battle with them was slim. Ships that did put up a fight were shown no 7________, so their best option was to raise the white flag and surrender.However, as the problem of piracy grew, merchant communities began to take 8________ intotheir own hands, arming and equipping ships at their own expense to protect commerce. These ships, 9________ by ‘privateers’, were licensed by the crown and could attack any enemy ship. Over time, the line between privateer and pirate became unclear.In a world where native populations were being wiped out or bound in chains, pirate life 10________ freedom and democracy. It’s easy to see why many found it hard to resist the spoils of the Golden Age of Piracy.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.In 1666, Sir Isaac Newton, observed light entering a prism (三棱镜), and from this experience he made a brilliant discovery about light and colour; that white light is made up of a spectrum of several colours. He was __1__with light, and believed that it had a close relationship to the concept that the early modern scientist knew as ‘the vegetable spirit’, which was an idea that Newton coined.Newton was __2__ awed敬畏by the beauty and complexity of nature. Over time, he concluded that the massive variety of life and processes that occur in nature, such as growth and __3__, meant there must be some __4__ force making it all happen. He believed that the ‘vegetable spirit’ was that __5__, and he thought it might be linked with the power of light.To those only familiar with Newton’s discoveries in __6__ and physics, the idea of the ‘vegetable spirit’ might seem __7__, and even pseudo-scientific. However, this idea was closely __8__ with a subject that he is not very often known for studying, and yet spent a great amount of his time devoted to: alchemy. In his lifetime, Newton wrote around one million words on alchemy (炼金术), which shows how committed he was to the __9__. Through his research into alchemy, Newton hoped to __10__ the secret of the 'V egetable spirit', or the spirit of life.Newton was not the first person to turn to alchemy in order to find what he was looking for, and was in fact one of the last in a long line of alchemists who sought to use the art for the purpose of discovering the universe's remarkable secrets.The __11__ of alchemy can be traced back 2,000 years before Newton to the ancient Egyptians and Greeks. In fact, the word ’alchemy’ may be derived from Khem, which was an Ancient Greek __12__ for Egypt. Even though alchemical tradition often states that the __13__ father of the practice was Hermes Trismegistus, it is very difficult to __14__ the root of alchemy to one person. On the other hand, it is much more likely that the first proto-alchemists were Egyptian metalworkers, who would have worked with several different types of metal. It was gold that had the most __15__, therefore many focused their attention on this precious metal. Dyers and medicine-makers were also linked to early alchemy.1.

A. popularity B. value C. amount D. usagesSection BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Last year, Liu Xiang, who lives alone in Shanghai, wrote an analysis of nearly 3,000 words on small home appliances that make living alone all the more pleasurable. Her take on these items, ranging from desk lamps and hair dryers to cooking machines, drew more than 100 replies, unusual for that specific section of the discussion group where 50 replies would normally put the topic in the hot category.However, the interest shown to what to some may seem like a trifling matter should not really be that surprising given that in China 77 million people live alone. These solo dwellers, aged 20 to 39, are mostly engaged in high-paying jobs in fields like finance, so as a group they have tremendous spending power.Home appliance makers and sellers are one of the main beneficiaries of the solo economy. Take Little Bears Electric Appliances. It has been expanding and updating its product line to target at the solo market, and half its 40 product categories are now singles-friendly.A New York University sociology professor, Eric Klinenberg, said in his book Going Solo: The Extraordinary Rise and Surprising Appeal of Living Alone that the single society is becoming hugely powerful and an indicator of social change.In 2018 and 2019 the Japanese video game Travel Frog became a hit in China. Actually, Travel Frog was a game that seemed to speak directly to those who keep the solo economy ticking. In it, a wayward (任性的) frog has become a baby people are keen on looking after. The frog never interacts with the player, eats alone, reads and does craft work at home and often sets out on journeys, sending postcards to the player letting him or her know its new location. The Travel Frog phenomenon was just one more sign of the increasing importance of the solo economy, with more and more people actively or passively accepting and enjoying their solitude.Travelling alone is becoming a strong market opportunity. 75% of Ctrip's self-operated tour groups have opened options for one-person travel, and it plans to develop more innovative products and services tailored to solo travelers.In entertainment and recreation, too, the solo economy is changing how things work. Mini- karaoke booths, self-service photo studios and self-service gyms have popped up on many comers in many cities.1. Liu Xiang's article about small home appliances is well-received by _____.A. those living all by themselvesB. a specific discussion groupC. home appliance producersD. people with high-paying jobs2. By "singles-friendly" (in paragraph 3), the author most probably means that Little Bears'products _____.A. are innovative in designB. are easy to use to any individualC. address the needs of the individualD. are environmentally conscious3. What do the travel frog and its player have in common?A. They both seem to enjoy living alone.B. They are both keen on travelling.C. They both stimulate the solo economy.D. They both interact with othersreluctantly.4. What is the passage mainly about?A. The popularity of solo dwelling.B. The prospect of the solo market.C. The influence of living alone.D. The rise of the solo economy.(B)Big Apple Jewish CuisineNo trip to New York City is complete until you've visited one of New York‘s famous Jewish food stores or delicates -- treats of European and Central European Jewish origin: bagels and lox, Romanian pastrami on rye, chopped liver, cheesecake, or matzoh ball soup. Many classic Jewish delis, such as Reubens, have now closed their doors, but the famous Katz's Delicatessen and the Second Avenue Deli still offer traditional Jewish deli specialty foods to a grateful group of native New Yorkers and international tourists.If you’re in the mood for an appetizing Jewish treat, visit Barney Greengrass’s The Sturgeon King, or Russ & Daughters for smoked or pickled fish, kippered salmon, whitefish, lox, and herring in sour cream sauce. If you're in the mood for a frothy (多泡沫的), thirst-quenching drink, visit the East Village's Chocolate Bar for a delicious chocolate egg cream. The egg cream is a classic New York treat that was concocted by Jewish candy store owner Louis Auster in Brooklyn, New York, in 1890.Regardless of your personal taste, there's a Jewish specialty food that is perfect for you. The next time you visit New York City, be sure to indulge in a puffy, hot knish or a warm and tasty brisket sandwich for lunch. If you're really hungry, go for the gold! Sink your teeth into a towering, overstuffed corned beef, chopped liver, and coleslaw sandwich at Katzs Deli. Are you hungry yet?1. What is the main topic of this article?A. Ethnic sandwiches.B. New York taste sensationsC. Food in the Big AppleD. Jewish specialty food in New York2. This article can best be described as ______.A. nonfiction.B. personal.C. fictional.D. historical.3. What is the tone of this article?A. Humorous.B. Encouraging.C. Indifferent.D. Inviting.4. What conclusion can you draw from this article?A. Certain food establishments in New York serve a variety of delicious Jewish deli treats.B. Visitors to the New York City can only enjoy Jewish deli food if they want to have amemorable trip.C. New York offers different ethnic foods.D. The egg cream is making a major comeback.(C)Dear Lee,As I told you,I’ll be gone until Wednesday morning. Thank you so much for taking on my “children" while I'm away. Like real children, they can be kind of irritating sometimes, but I'm going to enjoy myself so much more knowing they’re getting some kind human attention. Remember that Regina (the “queen” in Latin, and she acts like one) is teething. If you don't watch her, she'll chew anything, including her sister, the cat. There are plenty of chew toys around the house. Whenever she starts gnawing on anything illegal, just divert her with one of those. She generally settles right down to a good hour-long chew. Then you'll see her wandering around whimpering with the remains of the toy in her mouth. She gets really frustrated because what she wants is to bury the thing. She'll try to dig a hole between the cushions of the couch. Finding that unsatisfactory, she'll wander some more, discontent, until you solve her problem for her. I usually show her the laundry basket, moving a few clothes so she can bury her toy beneath them. I do sound like a parent, don't I? You have to understand, my own son is practically grown up.Regina's food is the Puppy Chow in the utility room, where the other pet food is stored. Give her a bowl once in the morning and once in the evening. No more than that, no matter how much she begs. Beagles are notorious overeaters, according to her breeder, and I don't want her to lose her girlish figure. She can share water with Rex (the King), but be sure it's changed daily. She needs to go out several times a day, especially last thing at night and first thing in the morning. Let her stay out for about ten minutes each time, so she can do all her business. She also needs a walk in the afternoon, after which it's important to play with her for a while in the yard. The game she loves most is fetch, but be sure to make her drop the ball. She'd rather play tug of war with it. Tell her, “Sit!” Then, when she does, say, "Drop it!" Be sure to tell her "Good girl," and then throw the ball for her. I hope you'll enjoy these sessions as much as I do.Now, for the other two, Rex and Paws... (letter continues)1. Which is most likely to happen if the pet sitter does not supervise Regina and encourage her toplay with her chew toys?A. Regina will fight with her sister and hurt both of them.B. Regina will overeat and gain weight.C. Regina will get frustrated or damage her owner's property.D. Regina will find something else to do.2. What are the three animals to take care of?A. Two cats and a dog.B. Two dogs and an unknown animal.C. A cat, a dog, and a parrot.D. A dog, a cat, and an unknown animal.3. The author uses the word children to describe his or her pets because ______.A. the author believes her pets possess childlike qualities.B. the author has never had children and the pets are substitutes for the children she never had.C. she dresses them in clothing and indulges them with special foods.D. her beagle has a girlish figure and the author calls her a “good girl.”4. Which of the flowing statement is TRUE?A. Rex is a Spanish name.B. Be sure to say "Good girl" to Regina when she follows the order to sit down.C. Rex needs to go out and have some exercise several times every day.D. Regina is likely to eat more food than she needs,(D)(excerpt from the opening of an untitled essay)John Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath, published in 1939, was followed ten years later by A.B. Guthrie's The Way West. Both books record a migration, though that of Guthrie's pioneers is considerably less bleak (没有希望的) in origin. What strikes one at first glance, however, are the commonalities. Both Steinbeck’s and Guthrie’s characters are primarily farmers. They look to their destinations with nearly religious enthusiasm, imagining their "promised" land the way the Biblical Israelites envisioned Canaan. Both undergo great hardship to make the journey. But the two stories differ clearly in origin. Steinbeck's Oklahomans are forced off their land by the banks that own their mortgages (抵押借款), and they follow a false promise — that jobs as seasonal laborers await them in California. Guthrie's farmers willingly remove themselves, selling their land and trading their old dreams for their new hope in Oregon. The pioneers’ decision to leave their farms in Missouri and the East is frivolous and ill-founded in comparison with the Oklahomans’ unwilling response to displacement. Yet it is they, the pioneers, whom our history books declare the heroes.1. From the context of the passage, it can be determined that the word frivolous most nearlymeans ______.A. silly.B. careful.C. difficult.D.unexpected.2. Which of the following sentence can best illustrate “Both undergo great hardship to make thejourney.” ?A. The migrants in The Way West cross the Missouri, then the Kaw, and make their wayoverland to the Platte.B. The Oklahomans’ jalopies (破旧的汽车) break down repeatedly, while the pioneers’wagons need frequent repairs.C. Today’s travelers would consider it a hardship to spend several days, let alone severalmonths, getting anywhere.D. The Joad family in The Grapes of Wrath loses both grandmother and grandfather before thejourney is complete.3. Which of the following is an important difference between Steinbeck’s and Guthrie’scharacters?A. Steinbeck's and Guthrie's characters are primarily farmers.B. Steinbeck's migration was forced, while the Guthrie farmers chose to leave their land.C. They look to their destinations with nearly religious enthusiasm, imagining their “promised”land the way the Biblical Israelites envisioned Canaan.D. none of these4. The language in the paragraph implies that which of the following will happen to theOklahomans when they arrive in California?A. They will find a means to practice their religion freely.B. They will be declared national heroes.C. They will not find the jobs they were promised.D. They will realize their dreams when reaching the city.III.

AMy Love,It is with the fondest regards that I am writing this letter. When I think of you, my heart skips a beat and my knees grow weak. I need you. I want you. I long for you.We've shared moments of real joy when I've given myself to you. In the kitchen. On the couch. In my bedroom.But my family and friends are starting to get worried. You've changed me. I do not like the person I see in the mirror. I've stopped going to the beach because I want you with me at all times and you can't stand the heat. I no longer enjoy shopping with my girlfriends because I can see you on every inch of my body and so can they. I cannot hide my love affair with you any more because it is written all over my face. And my arms. And my legs. And my abdomen(腹部).Being with you has been great. The satisfaction I get from one night with you is unlike any other. Though,the regret and disappointment I now experience in the morning is increasing.I am writing this letter to you because I know that I am not strong enough to see you again. You are harmful and bad for me. I need a clean break. I cannot see you any more no matter how hard you try to win me back. I know you are everywhere but I will be strong. Your inviting smell can no longer attract me. Your ability to know exactly what I want when I want it can no longer win me over. This is not going to be easy and I know I am going to miss you more than anything I've ever given up before. But I will be better for it in the end.So,I am writing to you with passion(激情),begging you to stay out of my life. We've had fun together but it's time I got over you. Goodbye, my love. Goodbye, chocolate. 21.Why has the author stopped going to the beach?A. Because it's not a suitable place for carrying chocolate.B. Because her family and friends may get worried.C. Because she no longer enjoys going out with her friends.D. Because she can't stand the heat on the beach.22.What does the underlined sentence “I need a clean break” probably mean?A. It's time for me to break the mirror.B. It's time for me to stop eating chocolate.C. I need to eat chocolate in a clean place.D. I need to go out to enjoy a good holiday.23.From the letter we can infer that ________.A. the author sometimes suffers from heart troublesB. the author has broken up with her girlfriendsC. the author has been getting fatterD. the author will soon go abroad on vacation24.By writing the letter,the author intends ________.A. to say goodbye to her loverB. to tell us a moving love storyC. to show her love of chocolateD. to give up eating her favorite foodBThe Hearst CastleHearst Castle is a park on the central California coast and a National Historic Landmark.

At 9 am on Sunday in March.CWhen I was a child, I often dreamed of the time when I could leave home and escape to the city. We lived on a farm, and in the winter especially, we were quite cut off from the outside world. As soon as I left school, I packed my bags and moved to the capital. However, I soon discovered that city life has its problems, too.One big disadvantage is money. It costs so much to go out, not to mention basics like food and housing. Another disadvantage is pollution. I suffer from asthma(哮喘), and at times the air is so bad that I am afraid to go outside. Then there is the problem of traveling round. Although I have a car, I seldom use it because of the traffic jams. One choice is to go by bicycle, but that can be quite dangerous.Of course there are advantages.

Four years later when it was time to renew(更新) my license I was a married woman. Henry and I were living in Baltimore, Maryland. Two weeks before my 20th birthday, Henry drove me to the motor vehicle office on a hot July afternoon. When I got to the office and showed to the man behind the counter my North Carolina driver’s license, ready to renew, the man told me that I was under the age by Maryland law since I was not yet 21. “Mr. Henry Smith, your husband, will have to sign for you,” he said.I argued, pointing to a very large belly(肚子)of mine,” I am married. I am having a baby. Why should I have to have someone sign for me to drive?”He answered coldly, “It’s the law, madam?”Henry encouraged me to calm down, just go ahead and get the license and be done with it “No.” I said. I refused to have him sign for me. So I left without a Maryland license.I called the North Carolina Motor Vehicle Office and renewed my NC license by mail-using my name Susan Brown. And thus it was for the next twelve years. Since Henry was in the army I could drive under my home state license. By the time Henry left the army we were once again living in Maryland, and I had to take the Maryland driver’s exam. Since then I just go in and renew every four years-sign the name Susan Brown, have my new picture taken, and walk out with a license to drive.32.
