I made a promise to myself on the way down to the vacation beach cottage. For two weeks I would try to be a loving husband and father. Totally loving. No ifs, ands or buts.
The idea had come to me as I listened to a talk on my car radio. The speaker was quoting a Biblical passage about husbands and their wives. Then he went on to say, “Love is an act of will. A person can choose to love.” To myself, I had to admit that I had been a selfish husband. Well, for two weeks that would change.
And it did. On arriving at the beach cottage, I kissed Evelyn meeting me at the door and said, “That new yellow sweater looks great on you.” “Oh, Tom, you noticed”, she said, surprised and pleased. Maybe a little puzzled. After the long drive, I wanted to sit and read. Evelyn suggested a walk on the beach. I started to refuse, but then I thought, “Evelyn’s been alone here with the kids all week and now she wants to be alone with me.” We walked on the beach while the children flew their kites.
So it went. Two weeks of not calling the Wall Street firm where I am a director; a visit to the shell museum though I usually hate museums. Relaxed and happy, that’s how the whole vacation passed. I made a new promise to keep on remembering to choose love.?
There was one thing that went wrong with my experiment, however. Evelyn and I still laugh about it today. On the last night at our cottage, preparing for bed, Evelyn stared at me with the saddest expression.
“What’s the matter?” I asked her.
“Tom,” she said in a voice filled with distress, “I don’t?”
“What do you mean?”
“Well…that checkup I had several weeks ago…our doctor…did he tell you something about me? Tom, you’ve been so good to me…am I dying?”
It took a moment for it all to be understood. Then I burst out laughing.
“No, honey,” I said, wrapping her in my arms. “You’re not dying; I’m just starting to live.”
【小题1】From the story we may infer that Tom drove to the beach cottage ______.

【小题2】During the two weeks on the beach, Tom showed more love to his wife because ______.

A．he was determined to be a good husband

B．he had made a lot of money in his Wall Street firm

A．He praised her sweater, which puzzled her.

B．She insisted on visiting a museum, which he hated.

C．He knew something about her illness but didn’t tell her.

D．He was so good to her that she thought she must be dying.

Once a New Zealand teacher asked where I live. “In the white building,” I answered.
“At our university both girls and boys live in the same dormitory.” I added.
Beyond my expectation（出乎意料）, however, my attempt（努力）to show I am speaking American English（AE） turned out to be something else. The New Zealander seemed very puzzled（迷惑）at my answer.
With a half smile, she asked, “Really？Do they live in the same room?”
“Oh, no. They live in different rooms but in the same building.” I reacted（反应）quickly.
Later I got to know the word “dormitory”. In AE it means one building, whereas（而，却）it means one room in British English（BE）.
The New Zealander misunderstood me because she spoke New Zealander English（NE）, which, as we know, is much related to BE.
Nowadays, not a few English learners, who try to catch up with the fashion（时髦）, choose to speak AE.
Yet, the problem is that they cannot speak pure AE, but half AE and half BE instead.
I think it necessary to keep one style in order to avoid（避免）misunderstanding.
61、Which of the following is right？
A、AE and BE are two different languages.
B、There are some differences between AE and BE.
C、New Zealanders speak BE.
D、New Zealanders cannot understand Americans.
62、What I said to the New Zealander is 　　　.
A、really pure AE                 B、really pure BE
C、half AE and half BE          D、not English at all
63、According to the passage , 　　　.
A、few people speak AE         B、more people speak BE
C、BE is becoming fashionable    D、AE is becoming fashionable
64、The writer wrote the passage in order to 　　　.
A、tell us a funny story
B、warn us not to make mistakes
C、tell us the differences between AE and BE
D、encourage us to speak one style of English

In countries around the world, food has been used to celebrate at our holidays, our rituals and our family gatherings. The food eaten at holiday time has made the deepest impact on our culture and memories. Different holidays bring different types of food. Much of the food we eat during the holidays comes from old traditions handed down for hundreds of years.

New Year's Eve always brings parties and get-togethers, but where you live in the world may determine what food graces your table. In the southern US, partiers eat black eyed peas, which are thought to bring good luck and prosperity(繁荣). The Japanese also eat food for good luck on New Year's, but their choice is red snapper, the color red being considered good luck in Japan. The Jewish celebrate New Year by eating apples dipped in honey and in Madrid, Spain the last minutes of the New Year are counted down with the popping of grapes into the mouth. A pet is a cake prepared by the Greek with a coin baked into it. The person who gets the slice of cake with the coin in it should have good luck in the upcoming year.

In the United States, a typical Christmas feast can contain a variety of foods ranging from turkey to chicken, from ham to goose, but other countries celebrate this holiday differently. Perhaps these choices have been taken from the traditions of our heritage(遗产). In Denmark, a traditional Christmas meal is roast goose, Greece, leg of lamb. Traditionally, Italians keep their Christmas Eve meal meatless. The traditional Christmas dinner in New Zealand is a picnic eaten on the beach.

Though holidays around the world are celebrated in different ways, it is food, feast and family that bring us together.
