【题目】The morning had been a disaster. My tooth was aching, and had been in an argument with a friend. Her words still hurt "The trouble with you is that you won't put yourself in my place. Can't you see things from my point of view?" I shook my head stubbornly—and felt the ache in my tooth. I'd thought I could hold out till my dentist came back from holiday, but the pain was really unbearable. I started calling the dentists in the phone book, but no one could see me immediately. Finally, at about lunchtime, I got lucky.

"If you come by right now, " the receptionist said, " the dentist will fit you in. "

I took my purse and keys and rushed to my car. But suddenly I began to doubt about the dentist. What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice? Why wasn't he as busy as the others?

In the dentist's office, I sat down and looked around. I saw nothing but the bare walls and I became even more worried. The assistant noticed my nervousness and placed her warm hand over my ice-cold one.

When I told her my fears, she laughed and said, "Don't worry. The dentist is very good. "

"How long do I have to wait for him?" I asked impatiently. "Come on, he is coming. Just lie down and relax. And enjoy the artwork, "the assistant said.

"The artwork?" I was puzzled.

The chair went back. Suddenly I smiled. There was a beautiful picture, right where I could enjoy it on the ceiling. How considerate the dentist was At that moment, I began to understand what my friend meant by her words. What a relief!

Time to give thanks

When it comes to Thanksgiving, turkey may be the first thing that comes to mind. It’s the right picture, but it’s not complete.

Celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November every year, Thanksgiving Day is a time for thanksgiving and feasts. It’s about expressing your gratitude to the important people and all the good things in your life.

Americans celebrate Thanksgiving with much warmth and keep many traditional customs. Here we introduce two of the rules Americans typically follow on this day.

1. Time for prayers and paying back

Thanksgiving Day has been associated with prayers in church and in homes for centuries. Attending church prayer services in the morning is the first step of many celebrators on Thanksgiving Day. The churches provide worship (礼拜) services and organize special events for the occasion.

Before Thanksgiving meals, some families gather together and read prayers to thank God for his kindness and the gifts he has bestowed upon (给予) them in the form of friends and family.

Some people also do voluntary community work on this day, as a way of paying back.

2. Family reunions and showing gratitude

Like China’s Spring Festival, preparing a big meal and bringing the family together at home is a long-standing tradition of Thanksgiving. Distances don’t really matter as relatives return home to be with their family, no matter how far away.

【题目】Chile is a country of southwest South America with a long Pacific coastline. Santiago is the capital and the largest city. The population of the country is about 11,329,736.

A long time ago, Chile belonged to Spain, a European country, because it was colonized by Spain in 1541,Many of Chileans, how-ever, did not want to be ruled by Spain.

Led by Bernardo O'Higgins, some of them formed a small army. They attacked the Spanish soldiers at different times and different places.

This made the King of Spain very angry. He sent more soldiers to Chile to deal with them.

Although there were far more Spanish soldiers than freedom fighters, they refused to surrender and fought bravely.

At last, however, in 1814,they were forced to retreat to the town of Rancagua near Santiago. There, O'Higgins and his men were surrounded by the Spanish army and O'Higgins was wounded by an enemy bullet.

It seemed as if their fight for freedom were over. But O'Higgins refused to surrender. Even though he was wounded, he ordered his men to collect as many mules, cows, sheep and dogs as possible. Shouting at the top of his voice, he rode into the animals. Frightened, they began to run. They ran straight at the Spanish soldiers. Now it was the Spaniards' turn to be frightened. They turned and run away from the animals as fast as they could, allowing O'Higgins and his men to escape to the mountains.

There he built up his army, and in 1818 he defeated the Spanish and the country declared its independence. He then became the first president of the new, free nation in the same year.
