After some terrible experience, we might say, “Not very 8 .” And we might say in the middle of a typhoon, “It’s a bit windy today.” Or “There is a tiny problem.” when something has gone 9 wrong. We don’t like to express strong feelings, but just “keep calm and carry on”.Another thing that can make it difficult 10 British humor is that we don’t always laugh or even smile when we say something funny. We often keep a straight face or use an unsmiling expression when we’re making a joke.Do you think the British sense of humor is special?1. 2. 3. 4. 5.6. 7. 8. 9. 10.2018but, choice, color, direct, fly, high, important, instead, it, many, quick, slowOne day, a father and his son went to a kite flying festival. When they arrived,there were already many adults and their children playing in the park. When theson saw the sky filled with 1 kites in different shapes, he was excited andwanted to get one too. His father agreed to buy one for him. So they went to a kiteshop and 2 a beautiful one.With the string(线)in hand, the son started 3 the kite. Soon, the kite was high up in the sky. After a while, the son said, "Father, it seems that the string is stopping the kite from flying higher. If we cut it, it will be free and fly even higher. Can we cut it?” The father didn’t reply, but just cut the string off the reel(线轴). Suddenly, the kite began to go 4 , which made the son much happier.However, to his surprise, the kite was coming down. They waited for quite some time. 5 , it fell onto the grass. The son felt upset and asked, "I thought that after cutting the string, the kite would fly higher.Why did it fall down?”The father smiled and said, “The role of the string was not stopping the kite from flying higher, 6 helping it stay in the sky, because the kite 7 can' t fly up. By using the string you help the kite go up in the right 8 . When you cut the string, it could not support the kite.In our life, we may sometimes feel like there are certain things that are holding us back and stopping us from growing. But in fact, these might be the things that support us_ 9 . We can really grow up and2017An old saying goes, "When in Rome(罗马), do as the Romans do." I learned the 1 of this when I studied in Russia.One day I invited some of my Chinese friends to a famous local restaurant in Moscow. My guests and I were 2 from visiting Red Square and happy about our meeting. We had a warm chat until the waiter told me that we were being too loud. We turned our voices 3 . But this didn’t last long. The waiter came over to us two more 4 with the same message.How bad an impression(印象)we must have left on the local people! In China, it’s 5 and important for a host to make a 6 atmosphere(气氛). However, in Russia and 7 countries, having a meal in a public place means you must keep your voice low. You need to be polite to others.I felt bad about this. Even though we tried our 8 , it’s very difficult to develop a new habit. Russians have their own special habits. My Russian friend, Andrey always looks around and thinks for a while before leaving home. I asked him why he did this. “Aha,” Andrey said, “in Russia, people always take about a minute 9 over things and plans in their minds before leaving. So they won’t leave anything necessary behind.”2016A boy thought that he was the most unhappy person in the world. He thought he was 1.________ because almost everything bad always happened to him. So he wanted to find the key to happiness. He walked a long way and finally came to a 2._______ palace. There, he met the king.After learning why the boy had come, the king advised that he should look around the palace and come back in two hours. “At the same time, I want you to 3.________this spoon with milk,” said the king. “Asyou walk around my palace, carry this spoon without spilling(溢出) the milk.”The boy kept his 4. _______on the spoon and began to walk around the fantastic palace. After two hours, he came back to the king. “Well,” asked the king. “Did you see the wonderful 5._______ in my dining hall?Did you see the 6._______ flowers in the garden? ” The boy felt sorry because he only paid attention to the milk.“Then go back and see the beauty of 7. ________ world,” said the king. This time the boy saw all of the 8.__________of art on the walls. He saw the greatest gardens and mountains all around. When he came back, he described everything he saw.“But where is the milk?” asked the king. Looking 9.________ at the spoon he held, the boy saw the milk was 10.________. “Well, the key to happiness is to see all the beauty of the world and also keep an20152014Look at the picture, what do you see? 1 , some people say it’s an old man,while others say it’s a young woman and an old 2 . It is a problem with manyanswers. Why? When you look at a problem from different views, you get differentanswers. Just turn it in your mind 3 bit, and you may see it in a completely newway.Some people only form an idea in their mind “A problem has only one answer, and allthe 4 are wrong.” Some even laugh at the different answers others come up with.Well, they’re wrong! If people only believed in one answer, we might still think theworld is square(方形的)! What’s one plus one? That’s easy, two! Right? Well, that’s oneright answer, but not the only answer. You might think of 11, or some 5characters like “二” or “十”! What’s a mom plus a dad? You might think of two people, or a man and a woman, or a whole family! So, even the 6 questions can have many answers. Of course, some problems do only have one answer. If each of the questions in a math test had 7 than one answer, it would be quite a problem for teachers 8 . Look at things in different ways, face your life with a 9 mind, and you’ll see a completely different world. After reading my article, if I ask you again: “What do you see in this picture?”, will you still give the same answer now? I’m sure this picture will be 10 to you.1. 2. 3. 4. 5.6. 7. 8. 9. 10.2013somebody, feel, day, successfully, lie, you, pleasant, discover, careful, lose, instruction, embarrassOne day, a student was talking with a professor (教授), who’s kind to those who waited on his 1.______________.As they went along, they saw a pair of old shoes 2.___________ on the path (小路), which, they supposed, belonged to a poor man working in a nearby field (田地). He had neatly finished his 3.____________ work.The student came to a stop, and said to the professor, “Let’s play a hoax on the man: we hide his shoes, hide ourselves and wait to see how 4._____________ he would be when he finds that his shoes are 5.__________ .”“My friend,” answered the professor, “We should never enjoy ourselves while making the poor sad. Now you are rich, why not give yourself a much greater 6._____________ by helping the poor man? Put a coin into each shoe, hide ourselves and see what will happen to him.”The student did so, and they both places themselves behind the nearby trees.After finishing his work, the poor man came across the field to the path. Putting his foot into one of his shoes, he felt something unusual. He stopped 7._____________ what it was and he found the coin.He took out the coin, surprised, and looked at it 8.______________ for a while. Then he looked around, but 9._____________ was there. Then he started to put on the other shoe. He got much more surprises when he found the other coin.The poor man then looked up into the sky and shouted “Thank You!” The student stood there with tears(眼泪) in his eyes. “Now,” said the professor, “aren’t you more pleased than if you had played 10.__________ planned hoax?”Worried That People Are Laughing at You?Imagine this situation. You pass a group of people. The people are talking to each other. You cannot hear what they are saying. But 1 they start laughing. What would you think? Would you think they were laughing at something 2 that one of them said? Or, to be honest with yourself, would you think they were laughing at you? Yes, you.Being laughed at is a 3 fear. But a major study published(公布)in 2009 found that this fear is not the 4 around the world, It differs from culture to culture.Some people in the study said they felt unsure of 5 in social situations and hid their feelings of insecurity (不安全). Others said they avoided (回避) social situations where they had been laughed at 6 .Shy people often avoid situations that would make them get into close contact (接触) with other people. They worry that something they say or do will make other people laugh at them, It can be truly sad for those who live with the fear of laughter. It can 7 how they lead their lives.In the study, a team from the University of Zurich led more than ninety 8 from around the world. They wanted to understand the difference between normal shyness and true fear of being laughed at. Another purpose of the study was 9 the levels of fear of being laughed at in different cultures. The scientists surveyed more than twenty-two thousand people in forty-two different languages. The 10Once there was a teacher who took all his students for tea. What made the students 1 was that all the cups on the table were 2 . Each of them took a cup and started 3 their own tea, looking at the 4 cups.The teacher said; "Do you notice your 5 ? You are all looking at each other's tea cups and 6of you even envy (羡慕) the 7 cups of others." Then he went on: "I put the different cups here on purpose! Life is like 8 tea. You all have the same thing in your cups— tea. And yet you can't 9 enjoy it in your envy of another's cup. You forget 10 your own life when you envy someone else's life. So now, taste your own tea! Does it matter from which cup it comes from?"1. 2. 3. 4. 5.2010It was already late when we started for the next town, which according to the _1_was about fifteen miles away on the other side of the hill.

Then, the car suddenly stopped. A quick examination showed that we had used up the gas. Although we had little food with us, we decided to spend the night in the car.Our meal was soon _9_, and then I tried to go to sleep at once, but John, who was a poor sleeper, got out of the car after a few minutes and went for a walk up the hill. Soon he found, in the valley bellow, the _10_of the town we were looking for. We at once pushed the car to the top of the hill. In less than a quarter2009An old man lived in a side street of a small town. Every day after supper, some children would play football in the street. The children were too 1 for the old man to have a good rest.One evening, the old man told the children that he would give them 25 cents each week 2 them play football in the street at night. He said, “I am so glad when you play football happily. ” This was his 3 . The boys were 4 , for they could 5 believe that they could 6 to do something they enjoyed.At the end of the 7 two weeks, the boys came to the old man’s house, and went away each time happily with 8 25 cents. The third week when they came back, however, the old man said he had nearly run out of his money and 9 them away with 15 cents. The fourth week, the old man said he was ill and he had spent almost all his money on medicine. He gave the boys only 10 cents. The boys were very 10 , but there was not much for them to do about it.At the end of the fifth week, the boys came back again only to get 5 cents.

The 1 story may tell us something about it.There was once a king who offered an award to an artist who could paint the 2 picture of peace. Many 3 tried. The king looked at all the pictures. But there were only two he really liked and he had to choose between them.One picture was a calm lake. The lake was a perfect thing for peace because of the high mountains around it. Overhead was a blue sky with white clouds. 4 who saw this picture thought that it was a perfect picture of peace.The other picture had mountains too. But they were rugged (高低不平的). Above was the dark sky, from which heavy rain fell. A waterfall was rushing down the side of the mountain. This did not look 5 at all. But when the king looked 6 , he found behind the waterfall a very small bush 7 in the midst 在….中) of the waterfall and a mother bird sitting on her nest (鸟窝) in perfect peace.The king gave the award to the artist who painted the 8 picture.

The 3 of inferiority(低人一等)was with me all the time and I even wanted to 4 my life.I went to my mother's workplace to see her for the last time. She was mending a bike there. Most of the workers were men. My mother was one of the two 5 workers. In the back of the shop I found a pair of tennis rackets and a box of cucumber slices. I asked 6 woman about the tennis rackets, and she told me, your mother usually asks me to play tennis with her. She wants to keep slim. I asked my mother 7 she kept some cucumber slices. She said that she used 8 to clean her face and make her look younger and more beautiful.I couldn't say a word. How optimistic my mother was. Although life was 9 , she never thought of 10 up. I sat for a while and then went back to school. I studied harder and went to college two years later.About three years ago I felt very lonely. I didn't like my classmates, my parents 1 anyone else. My classmates didn't want to talk with me and my parents were always saying that. Other kids were better than me. I thought I was the 2 unlucky person in the world.One day I had a big fight with one of my classmates. I was so angry 3 I hit him in the face. Just at that moment, a boy stood up and 4 the fight. He was the monitor of our class. After that, he often helped me and we became good 5 . Whenever I got angry or sad, he would help 6 to cool down. My life began to change because of the boy, my best friend. We spend a lot of interesting days together. As 7 goes by, I have become happier with people and things. And it 8 that people around me have changed too. My parents don't shout at me 9 more, and my classmates become friendly to me.But now I can't see my best friend because he is seriously ill and is staying in hospital. How I miss the days when we 10 together. I hope he will be all right and come back to school soon.Reading newspapers has become an important part of everyday life. I 1 to read newspapers at the age of four.I'm so busy that I can't read all the news. So we just take a quick look at the 2 page. At other times, we may be in such a hurry that we often have a few 3 to look at the names of the passages.In the world newspapers can 4 everywhere. Some newspapers are published once a 4 , but most of the papers are published once a day with many pages. You know differentpeople enjoy 6 different newspapers. Some like world news and 7 prefer short stories. They only choose 8 they like.Today, newspapers in English have the 9 number of readers in the world. The English language is so popular that 10 Chinese students are reading English newspapers such as China daily or 21st century. They bring more and more information together with the Internet.If you don't use your arms or your legs for some time, they will become weak; when you start using them again, they will gradually become 1 again. Everybody 2 this. Yet many 3 do not seem to know that it is the same with memory. When someone says that he 4 a good memory, he 5 means that he doesn't give it enough chance to become stronger.If a friend says that his arms and legs 6 weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his 7 are to blame, and few of us know that it is just his own fault.Have you ever found some people can't read or write, 8 they usually have better memories. This is 9 they cannot read or write and they have to remember things they can't write them down in a little notebook. They must remember dates, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the 10 time being exercised.So if you want a good memory, learn from these people; practice remembering.Can animals be made to work for people?

Ever since he 2 school, he has travelled all over the world looking for animals for 3 own zoo.He writes books about his travels and about his wonderful 4 . The money for his books helps him to 5 for all the animal food. My friend told me 6 when he waslooking for water last week. (There is not enough water on the island though there is a lot all around it), he 7 oil. He needs money for his travels and for his zoo, and a little oil would buy enough water for a long time, but he knows that if he tells 8 else about it. It will be the end of his zoo and his life's work. So I think he will not tell anybody 9 you and me about what he found, because oil and water can’t be put together. Oil you may bring 10 trouble to his animals than not having enough water. Do you think so?7Time spent in a bookshop can be enjoyable. If you go to a good 1 , no assistant will come near to you and say, “Can I help you?” You needn't buy 2 you don't want. You may try to find out where the book you want 3 .

Before I left, the policeman 4 down my name and my address. He thought the owner might want to thank 5 .That evening I went to have dinner 6 my aunt and uncle. They had also asked a young woman 7 dinner with us. Her face was familiar, but I couldn't remember where I had seen 8 . During our talk, the young woman happened to say that she had lost her bag that afternoon. All at once I remembered where I had seen her. She was the young girl in the photo though she looked now much 9 than the girl in the picture. She was very surprised, of course when I told her about the bag.
