The Official Mascots (官方吉祥物) of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games
        Like the Five Olympic Rings from which they draw their color and inspiration (灵感), the Five Friendlies
(福娃)will serve as the Official Mascots of Beijing 2008 Olympic Games, carrying a message of friendship,
peace and blessings (祝福)from China to children all over the world.
        The Five Friendlies come from four of China's most popular animals: the Fish, the Panda, the Tibetan
Antelope (藏羚羊), the Swallow and one from the Olympic Flame (火炬).
        Each of the Friendlies has a name in the traditional way of expressing love for children in China. Beibei is
the Fish, Jingjing is the Panda, Huanhuan is the Olympic Flame, Yingying is the Tibetan Antelope and Nini is the
Swallow.
        When you put their names together: "Bei Jing Huan Ying Ni", they say "Welcome to Beijing", offering a
warm invitation of the Five Friendlies as young children for the Olympic Games.
        The Five Friendlies also stand for the scenery, the dreams and the aspirations (热情)of people from every
part of China. In their origins and their headpieces, you can see the five elements of nature: the sea, the forest,
the fire, the earth and the sky. What's more, the deep traditional Chinese folk art can be found in all the Five
Friendlies.
        At the heart of their task and through all of their work, the Five Friendlies will try to unite the world in
peace and friendship through the Olympic spirit. In order to help Beijing spread (传播) its theme of 2008 "One
World, One Dream" to every continent, the Five Friendlies show the deep feeling of the Chinese people to reach
out to the world in friendship through the Games. And the Five Friendlies invite every man, woman and child all
over the world to take part in the great celebration of human union in Beijing, China in 2008.

        Charles Chaplin, who died in 1977, is regarded as one of the greatest and funniest actors in the history of
the cinema. During his lifetime, he acted in 13 films, and he wrote, directed (导) and acted in 69 other films.
        Chaplin was born in London in 1889. When he was a poor boy, he was often seen waiting outside the
London theatres, hoping to get work in show business. He could sing and dance, and above all, he could make
people laugh. But he couldn't get work, so he wandered (徘徊) about the city streets. Sometimes he was sent
away to a home for children who had no parents.
        Charlie Chaplin first acted when he was five. He broke into show business because his mother, a music-
hall performer, lost her voice during the performance and had to leave the stage, and Charlie went on and sang
a well-known song. Halfway through the song a shower of money poured onto the stage. Charlie stopped
singing and told audiences he would pick the money first and then finish the song. The audiences laughed. This
was the first of millions of laughs in Charlie Chaplin's comedy (喜剧) life.
        Twenty years later the same Chaplin became the greatest and best loved comedian in the world. His dream
came true in the end. Chaplin became world-famous and almost a king in the world of the film.
        Even people who don't understand English can enjoy Chaplin's films because they are mostly silent. The
machine for adding sound to films had not yet been developed. The development of films with sound became a
problem for Chaplin, as he was uncertain about making films with dialogues. Instead, he continued to make films
without dialogue, but he added music, which he wrote himself. It isn't what he says that makes us laugh. His
comedy doesn't depend on (依靠) words. It depends on little actions which mean the same thing to people all
over the world.
        Chaplin's later films, however, were not well received. Chaplin lived most of his life in America and the
last years in Switzerland, where he was buried (被埋葬) at Christmas 1977, at the age of eighty-eight. There
was sadness all over the world at the news of his death.
         In his book, Chaplin tells us how to succeed in life. He says, "You have to believe in yourself. That's the
secret."

       The first person who'd sent emails was an American friend who was in a big company. Some years ago,
when this method of communication first came into business life, his company in New York and its satellites
across the earth were among the first to get it.
        One evening in New York, the American friend was late for a drink we'd arranged (安排). "Sorry," he
said, "I've been away and had to deal with 998 emails." "Wow," I said, "I'm really surprised you made it before
midnight." "It doesn't really take that long," he explained, "if you simply delete (删除) them all."
        The friend had developed his own way on dealing with emails before most of us heard of emails. If any
information he got was very important, his no reply would make the sender ring him up. If the sender wasn't
important enough to have his phone number, the communication couldn't be important enough.
        Almost every week now, we have to spend lots of time in dealing with emails. But if this happens, it's only
because we haven't developed the same thing in dealing with emails as we do with post. Have you ever regarded
an important letter as a piece of advertisement and thrown it out? Of course you haven't. Junk (垃圾) email
looks unnecessary to read. But I cannot understand why so many people would like to open emails which come
from this kind of address such as
SPECIALOFFER@junk.com.
         Dealing with emails is an art. Firstly, you delete anything from any address you don't know. Secondly, not
all the emails have to be answered. Thirdly, a reply email doesn't have to be the same length as the original (原始
的).
1. Why was the friend late for the drink that evening?
[     ]
A. Because he had a lot of work to do.
B. Because he had to deal with quite a lot of emails.
C. Because he had to finish his work before midnight.
D. Because he had to delete quite a lot of emails.
2. What is the American friend's opinion on e-mails?
[     ]
A. He would get all the important information whether he replied the emails or not.
B. He would only reply the emails whose sender had his phone number.
C. He would only reply the important emails.
D. He thought communication through the phone would be better than through the emails.
3. Which of the statement is true according to the writer?
[     ]
A. All the emails should be answered.
B. A reply email should be the same length as the original.
C. To find an important letter among the advertisements is easier than to find an important e-mail among the 
    junk emails.
D. Most of people would hardly open the emails from the address they don't know.
4. The best title for the passage is "_______________".
[     ]
A. Emails
B. An American friend invented emails
C. Emails changed our life
D. How to deal with emails
