【题目】C

One day after we moved to our farm, I found that two of the neighbor’s cows and a calf had wandered through the fence along our woods. The neighbor, Lorne Wright showed up with his dog to herd them back into his grassland—and with part of a roll of nine-wire fence.

＂There’s probably enough to reach from the road to the first brace post if you were of a mind to fix this spot,＂ he said. My face lit right up. I wanted to be a good neighbor, but money was tight.

The next week I was pulling the old fence out of the tall grass when Bill Risk stopped his car. He said,

＂Fixing fence, are you? Hear a story? A long time ago, two fellows farmed next to each other, so they agreed that each would start building fence on opposite ends of their farms and meet in the middle.＂

＂When they finished, one said, ‘Well, it looks good.’ But the other said, ‘My half looks good, because I started where I should have, but you started your half about 2 feet over on my farm and I want it moved right away!’＂

＂Well, these two fellows, who could have been good neighbors, began to get angry with each other, and the bitterness went on for years. Finally one man sold his farm, and no sooner had the new owner moved in than his neighbor paid him a visit. ＂

＂He said, ‘There has always been a problem with our line fence. Your half begins 2 feet over on my farm. It should have been moved a long time ago.’ The new neighbor thought for a moment, then said, ‘I always intend to be a good neighbor. If you think the fence is on your farm, you move it to wherever you think it should be, and you’ll never hear a complaint from me.’＂

＂They became good friends. And the fence was never moved. So keep that fence straight, neighbor,＂ Bill went away, leaving me with a smile on my face as I went back to work.

I don't think there is anything more important than health. “Health is the greatest wealth，” wise people say. You can't be good at your studies or work well when you are ill.
If you have a headache, toothache, backache, earache or bad pain in the stomach, if you complain of a bad cough, if you run a high temperature and have a bad cold, or if you suffer from high or low blood pressure, I think you should go to the doctor. The doctor will examine your throat, feel your pulse, test your blood pressure, take your temperature, sound your heart and lungs, test your eyes, check your teeth or have your chest X-rayed. After that, he will advise some treatment, or some medicine. The only thing you have to do is to follow his advice.
Speaking about doctor's advice, I can't help telling you a funny story. An old gentleman came to see the doctor. The man was very ill.

He told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest. He also advised him to eat a lot of meat, drink two glasses of red wine every day and take long walks. In other words, the doctor advised him to follow the rule: "Eat with pleasure, drink with pleasure and enjoy life as it is." The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again, he shouldn't smoke more than one cigarette a day. A month later the gentleman came into the doctor's office. He looked cheerful and happy. He thanked the doctor and said that he had never felt a healthier man." But you know, doctor," he said, “it's not easy to begin smoking at my age.”

I felt (luck) to have won a place to go on a cultural tour to sites of lost civilizations. We visited Pompeii in Italy and Loulan in China. Pompei (found) in the 8th century BC, then takenby the Romans in 89 BC. Later, Pompei was destroyed by a volcano. It erupted and covered Pompei with ash. (fortunate), many people were buried alive. The city was forgotten for many years until the 18th century when a stone with writing on it was discovered by a farmer. People started to dig in the area treasure and caused much damage. Thus, in 1860, the area was governed by the government so could be preserved and studied.
Differently, Loulan disappeared under the sand. There were just a few (ruin) left. There was ancient water system (run) through the middle of the city. The desert was once a green with huge trees, but they were cut down,resulted in the city being buried by sand.
They were both important commercial cities about 2,000 years ago. It was a pity that they disappeared for ever.
