I stand outside waving at the car pulling slowly out of our driveway. I force a smile, hoping it will cover up my tearing eyes, but I know it’s not working. I run into the house, slam the door behind me, and begin crying. It’s just occurred to me that I can’t see my elder sister, Monsura, in the next four months.

I ask myself why it is that I’m crying when I know she's doing something good for herself. I feel selfish for thinking about it but I’d be lying if I said I was happy for her choosing to study in a university in Boston. When my brother, Shafat, left for college, it was different. I still had one sibling at home to call me the stupidest person on a daily basis.

I am reminded of the things we did together as kids. In our old two-bed-room apartment, our parents gave in to our constant begging and traded rooms with us for one night. It was like being part of the amusement park, using our parents’ big bed as a trampoline (蹦床).It was during the first night that I witnessed a full moon. My sister and I believed my brother. He said that the moon was yellow because it was made from cheese. We made plans to visit the moon so we could melt a part of it and make cheese dip. But now I laugh at myself for being so innocent.

Sitting in front of my computer, I listen to songs that remind me of my two best friends. I come to terms with the fact that there's no longer anyone here to laugh uncontrollably with me or to turn to at night when I have a nightmare.

I’m shaken into reality by the sound of my cell phone ringing. Shafat is calling. I pick up and he immediately says “Thank you for such a great childhood.'' Those few words mean the world to me. We three-way call Monsura and spend the next hour reliving memory after memory, and by the end, I forget that I’m alone at home.

1.Why does the writer feel very sad?

A. She isn't admitted to a university.

B. She has no one to accompany her at home.

C. Monsura thinks she is stupid.

D. Monsura and Shafat didn’t go to the same college.

2.The kids traded rooms with their parents because .

A. they hoped to sleep in one room

B. they expected to see a fall moon

C. they could play together on their parents’ bed

D. they wanted to make plans to visit the moon

3.What is the turning point of the story?

A. That the writer’s brother left home for college.

B. That the writer cried hard on the day when Monsura left.

C. That the writer listened to songs that remind her of something.

D. That the writer talked with her sister and brother on the phone,

4.What might be the best title for the passage?

A. My childhood B. A very sad day

C. A hard-won family union D. The most precious family love

Ice climbing is a dynamic winter sport that combines excitement, technique and determination.

Back in 2014, the sport was presented to the public during the Sochi Winter Olympic Games in Russia. The next goal for ice climbing is showcasing the sport in 2018 Pyeongchang Olympic Winter Games before it's included in 2022 Beijing Winter Olympic Games.

If you are already hooked on this sport, here are some of the world's best places with epic ice formations that you shouldn't miss.

Ouray, Colorado, US

Known as the "Switzerland of the US", Ouray offers climbers easy access to more than 200 named climbs, with free entrance to the park. The ice park also offers guide and instructional services for beginners. Ouray usually hosts the biggest ice festival in North America every January.

China has a lot of ice walls, which are located in different mountains in the northern and western parts of the country. Among them, Sichuan province's Shuangqiaogou, or Twinbridge Trench, in Mount Siguniang has some of the finest such spots. The ice season in the area usually starts mid-December and runs through late February. Climbers can enjoy various ice formations along with a clean, quiet environment.

Valdez, Alaska, US

Alaska's breathtaking Valdez region has been attracting world-class climbers to the region for decades. Each year, thrill-seekers flock there to follow classic routes such as Sheep Creek and Solomon Gulch, while others explore the area by themselves, hoping to find the next classic site on their own adventures.

Q My husband and I would like to spend five or six days in the Maldives. Could you

suggest some low-priced hotels? We'll be there in November. Jan Davies, email.

A Prices in the Maldives are high. The cheaper hotels (and there aren't many) mightn't

be much to look at, with unpleasant rooms, iron roofs, old buildings, poor and rough

vegetation and basic facilities, but they get their atmosphere from cheerful customers

and an untidy, free island feel.

Angaga (South Ari Atoll, phone 0011 960 450510), Asdu Sun Island (North Male

Atoll, email info@asdu.com.mv) are both a bit like this.

You'll be there in the low season (May to November), when its' still warm, but

there's a greater likelihood of rain, so you should be able to get a double (standard )

room with full board (three meals a day) for $ 100 a night.

However, pricing structures for the hotels are enormously complex for standard,

superior and luxurious rooms.

Q My husband and I are from Australia. We are planning a four-week trip to London, Dublin and Paris in October and we are shocked by the cost of hotels. We have

searched the Internet and hotel books given to us by tourist authorities but we can't

find anything cheaper than $ 150 a night.

Joan Maloney, email.

A For Australians traveling Europe, especially its capital cities, is expensive. You may

have to increase your budget . However, if you can't afford these costs, then you

should consider staying in hotels where the cheapest twin rooms with shared bathroom

cost about$20 a person in Dublin and Paris and $35 in London. The minimum you

would pay for a double room in a central area is $50 a person in Dublin and Paris and

$70 in London. These prices are for shared bathroom facilities, though you will get a

wonderfully unhealthy cooked breakfast thrown in.

Not all hotels are equal, of course, and it's a good idea to consult a guidebook with

a good reputation.

1.The hotel Angaga in the Maldives_________.

A. attracts untidy people B. has some basic facilities

C. has the best landscape D. can be contacted by email

B. standard, superior and luxurious rooms are all available

C. the weather will probably be better than that of the low season

D. a standard room with full board will cost less than $100 a night.

3.What is the advice for the couple planning to visit Europe in October?

A. They should stay in hotels in a central area

B. They could live in hotel rooms of lower standard

C. They should put up with the wonderfully unhealthy cooked breakfast.

D. They should buy a reliable guidebook instead of increasing the budget.

The English have a difficult and, generally speaking, dysfunctional (不协调的) relationship with clothes. Their main problem is dial they have a desperate need for rules, and are unable to get along without them. Tins helps to explain why they have an international reputation for dressing in general very badly, but with specific areas of excellence, such as high-class men’s suits, ceremonial costume, and innovative (革新的) street fashion. In other words, we English dress best when we are “in uniform”.

You may be surprised that I am including “innovative street fashion” in the category of uniform. Surely the parrot-haired punks (朋克摇滚乐迷) or the Victorian vampire Goths are being original, not following rules? It’s true that they all look different and eccentric(奇特的) but in fact they all look eccentric in exactly the same way. They are wearing a uniform. The only truly eccentric dresser in this country is the Queen, who pays no attention to fashion and continues to wear what she likes, a kind of 1950s fashion, with no regard for anyone else’s opinion. However, it is true that the styles invented by young English people are much more eccentric than any other nation’s street fashion. We may not be individually eccentric, apart from the Queen, but we have a sort of collective eccentricity, and we appreciate originality in dress even if we do not individually have it.

Another “rule” of behavior I had discovered was that it is very important for the English not to take themselves too seriously, to be able to laugh at themselves. However, it is well known that most teenagers tend to take themselves a bit too seriously.

The Goths, in their scaring black costumes, certainly look as if they are taking themselves seriously. But when I got into conversation with them, I discovered that they too had a sense of humor. I was once chatting to a Goth in the full vampire costume—with a white face, deep purple lipstick, and black parrot-hair. I saw he was also wearing a T-shirt with “Goth”. “Why are you wearing that?” I asked. “It’s in case you don’t realize I’m a Goth,” he answered, pretending to be serious. We both burst out laughing.

1.What can we know about the English people?

A. They need rules to dress well. B. They are in need of uniforms.

C. They are creative in general. D. They lead the world trend.

2.Who is individually eccentric in dressing?

C. The Queen. D. The fashion innovator.

3.Which of the following can best describe the Goths?

A. They dress badly.

B. They dress in an amusing way.

C. They are unable to laugh at the way they dress.

D. They are less fashionable than the other English people.

4.What may be the best title for the text?

A. How the English Dress

B. How the English Admire Fashion

C. Why the English Like Uniforms

D. Why the English Are Eccentric in Dress
