I have nothing to say about whether or not "A Day Without Immigrants" had a positive or negative effect on the question of how the federal government should deal with the huge population of undocumented illegal immigrants in this country. I'll leave that question to others.
Regardless of how you feel about the event, one conclusion is obvious. Using the theme of" A Day Without" as a way to focus national attention on a particular subject is a great idea, and could serve as a method for increasing public awareness about other issues that affect daily life in America. Here are my top three examples:
"A Day Without Speeding." How hard could this be? If all drivers would strictly obey every posted speed limit on highways, downtown, on neighborhood streets, and in parking lots for one 24-hour cycle, the benefits would be huge.
"A Day Without Losing Your Temper." A higher degree of difficulty here, and I know that from personal experience. When something goes wrong at home or on the job, there may be brief satisfaction in yelling or kicking the furniture, but erupting with anger usually doesn't do anything to solve the problem, and in many cases it makes the situation more unpleasant.
"A Day Without Having All The Answers." I would like to get a break from hearing anyone speak the phrase, "Here's what you're doing wrong." Right now the US is jampacked with citizens who believe they can point out the cause of every single problem in existence and then solve it on the spot. I believe they need to be quiet sometimes and use their ears instead of their voices.
I wonder how would average Americans react to such a collective pause? Would it be a day of angry protests, or joyful celebrations?

    Jade means a lot in Chinese culture and is highy valued by the Chinese people.

Many people begin to wear one when they are young till they die, believing that it

will bring them good luck.

    Every time I stop to think about which possession of mine means the most to me,

I find myself looking at my left wrist, around which is a simple jade bracelet. And this bracelet will always remind me of my culture and the individual that I am.

   I remember very clearly the night my parents gave me the bracelet. It was in mysophomore (二年级)  year of high school, and I had stayed out at midnight. When Ifinally got home, my parents gave me a lecture on responsibility. I expected to beplaced on restriction, but instead they gave me a jade bracelet. I was totally

shocked...but when I went to bed that night I was supremely happy.

    The next morning my father told me that because they had gone shopping for the

bracelet, he had not gone to the racetrack(赛马场), and had missed out on winning

$20,000 because of me. However, he said that I was worth it.

    The bracelet will always remind me of those two days and the love that exists in my relationship with my parents, even though nothing is ever said. I know that no matter what I may do, my parents will always love me and accept me the way I am.

Since I got the bracelet, I have not taken it off--mostly because I don't want to. My bracelet means so much to me that if it should ever break, I would be enormously

upset, But then. I could always save the pieces for good luck.

第三部分 阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)

阅读下列段文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

A poor traveller stopped under the tree to eat the boiled rice and vegetables which he had brought with him. A few metres away, there was a small shop by the side of the road where a woman was frying (油炸)fish and selling it to travelers. The woman watched the poor traveler carefully, and when he finished his food and began to go, she shouted rudely, “You haven’t paid me for the fried fish!”

“But I have not had any fried fish!” he said.

“But everyone can see that you enjoyed the smell of my fried fish with your rice and vegetables,” said the woman, “If you had not smelled the fish, your meal would not have been so pleasant!”

Soon a crowd collected, and although they supported the poor traveler, they had to admit that wind was blowing from the shop to the place where he had eaten, and that it had carried the smell of the fried fish to him.

Finally, the woman took the poor traveler to a judge, who said, “The woman says that the traveler ate his meal with the smell of her fried fish. The traveler agrees that the wind was blowing from the woman’s shop to the place where he ate his rice and vegetables, and that it carried the smell of her fried fish to his nose while he was eating, so he must pay for it. What does your fried fish cost?” he asked the woman.

“Twenty-five cents a plate,” she answered, delighted.

“Then go outside together,” said the judge. “There the traveler must hold up a twenty-five-cent piece so that its shadow(影子)falls on the woman’s hand. The price of the smell of a plate of fried fish is the shadow of twenty-five cents.”

51. The traveler refused to pay the woman for the fried fish because       .

A. he was poor                                                 B. he was rude

C. he was supported by a crowd                  D. he hadn’t eaten her fried fish at all

52. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

A. The traveler bought the boiled rice and vegetables and ate them by the side of the road.

B. The judge had no idea what the woman meant.

C. In the fifth paragraph, the first “it” has the same meaning as the second “it”.

D. The woman got nothing but the shadow of twenty-five cents in the end.

53. The best title for the passage should be       .

A. The Smell and the Shadow

B. A Poor Traveler

C. A Rude Woman

D. A Woman and a Traveler
