When I was in college, I spent a semester studying abroad at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland. In my brief time there, I came to love Scotland for its local culture, food and scenery.

You might think, ¡°Scotland isn¡¯t so different from the US; they still speak English there!¡± But when I stepped off the plane, I was greeted by a gruff-voiced(ÉùÒô´ÖÑƵÄ) lady at customs. ¡°You¡¯ll be coming from America, then?¡± She asked me, and I nodded. ¡°But all of our guys are leaving Glasgow for the States!¡± Her thick Scottish English and sense of humor were obvious right away. I was not in the US any more, where customs agents never joke around.

As I settled in at the university, I could feel myself getting used to hearing¡ªand even speaking¡ªthe Scottish English of my customs agent. In classroom discussions, people would say ¡°em¡± when they couldn¡¯t think of what to say instead of ¡°um¡±, which was great fun. After the first few weeks, I stopped chuckling about this. Strathclyde students stayed up late into the night, running around campus and shouting, ¡°Go! Let¡¯s go, let¡¯s go, let¡¯s go [curse word] Glasgow!¡± Pretty soon, I was no longer saying ¡°thanks¡± at the supermarket¡ªinstead, I said ¡°cheers¡±.

My Scottish friends drank whiskey and ate haggis(ÑòÔÓËé²¼¶¡). I drank plenty of whiskey but felt ashamed to admit that I wasn't brave enough to try haggis. Scottish bakeries usually sell bridies (ÈâÏÚ±ý). Add a cup of tea¡ªthough I usually Americanized it by choosing coffee instead¡ªand a bridie makes for a delicious breakfast.

Every time I took a train anywhere in Scotland, I¡¯d gaze out at the rolling hills and wonder if grass was greener than anywhere else in the world. Then I¡¯d reflect that there¡¯s a reason this country was the birthplace of golf.

A. Impolite. B. Friendly.

C. Serious. D. Calm.

China¡¯s boss of table tennis Liu Guoliang was shocked at his first sight of Japanese teenager Miu Hirano who beat three top-ranked Chinese to claim a sensational victory of the women¡¯s singles at the Asian Table Tennis Championships.

"She¡¯s much better than I had imagined," said Liu, on the conclusion of the continental tournament£¨½õ±êÈü£©. "When she came out the winner of last year's World Cup, I thought maybe she took advantage of the absence of the Chinese women paddlers. However, I changed my mind when I saw her play here. She¡¯s strong enough technically and mentally, and capable of beating any one in the world," added Liu.

Hirano, who just turned 17 years old on Friday, stunned China's world No. 1 Ding Ning 3-2 in the quarterfinals before second-ranked Zhu Yuling 3-0 and finally seeing off world No. 5 Chen Meng, also 3-0, to smash the Chinese dominance£¨Í³ÖΣ©of the tournament.

"She's so young and has so many possibilities in the future," said Liu. "That makes her success more intimidating to our women's team."

In Liu's opinion, the difficulties that China faced in these Asian championships reflected the changes of table tennis world map in recent years.

"It's not just recently that Japan wants to beat China," he said. "By the end of the day, their efforts finally worked out."

The head coach, however, refused to stand all by the Japan's side. "We do need to learn from the other associations, including the Japanese, who do an excellent job on youth training," Liu said. "But one failure should not lead to the whole denial to our own team. I think it's a good thing to have competitors who can pose real challenges, which makes our sport more competitive and more healthy," he added.

1.What¡¯s the meaning of the underlined word ¡°intimidating¡± in paragraph 4?

A. possible B. certain

A. Because Miu made use of the absence of the Chinese women paddlers.

B. Because Chinese women paddlers were weak.

C. Because Miu was capable of winning the game.

D. Because Liu Gouliang wanted her to win the game.

3.Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?

A. Zhu Yuling is the second-ranked in the world of table¡ªtennis.

B. Miu Hirano was defeated by Ding Ning in the quarterfinals of the Asia Table Tennis Championships.

C. China¡¯s female paddlers face the great challenge.

D. Female table-tennis world map has changed in recent years.

Make the right choices

What is life¡¯s greatest gift?1.Choice is the ability to select one course of action from a set of alternatives to achieve a goal. What is so great about choice? It transforms us from dumb animals into artists. Each of us becomes another Michelangelo. Choice becomes nothing other than the tool we use to sculpt (µñ¿Ì)our life. The tool doesn¡¯t come free, however, for the price of choice is responsibility.2.The reward is happiness.

Life is not still. It is a flow.3.We constantly need to monitor where we are on our journey. We need to ask questions: Am I moving closer to my goals? If not, what corrective measures can I take? What action will I take now to readjust myself to my goals? Choice is power. Choice is at the heart of life. It is the creative power of life.

4.And your life becomes more convenient or comfortable because of them. For example, you decide which stores to shop at and which gas station to go to. But the decisions that we make to sculpt our lives are far more important than deciding where to shop. The more we appreciate the difference between minor and major decisions, the greater the probability that we will experience happiness and fulfillment.

D. But when we accept and carry it out, we get a great return

F. Life is full of hard choices, and the bigger they are, the harder they get

G. Choose to carry out responsibilities not because you have to, but because you want to

Wealth starts with a goal and saving a dollar at a time. Call it the piggy bank plan. There are lessons in that historic coin-savings container (ÈÝÆ÷).

Any difficult task seems easier when started from baby steps. If you wished to climb a 12,000-foot mountain, and could do it a day at a time, you would only have to climb 33 feet daily to reach the top in a year. If you want to take a really nice trip, to collect the $ 15,000 cost, you have to save $3.93 a day. If you drop that into a piggy bank and then once a year put $1,434 in a savings account, you will have your trip money.

When I was a child, my parents gave me a piggy bank to teach me that, if I wanted something, I should save money to buy it. We connect piggy banks with children, but in many countries, the little containers are also popular with adults. Europeans see a piggy bank as a sign of being rich. Around the world, many believe a gift of a piggy bank on New Year¡¯s Day brings good luck and wealth.

Why is a pig used as a symbol of saving? Why not an elephant bank, which is bigger and holds more coins? In the Middle Ages, before modern banking, skillful workers made these inexpensive containers from an orange-colored clay (ð¤ÍÁ) called ¡°pygg,¡± and people then saved coins in pygg jars. As ¡°pygg¡± pronounced much like the Middle English word ¡°pigge¡± meaning ¡°pig¡±, gradually, the two words changed into the same pronunciation. Once a clever worker made a pygg jar in the shape of a pig, pleasing children and adults. The piggy bank was born.

In the past, you had to break the bank to get the money, bringing in a sense of seriousness into savings. While piggy banks teach children the value of saving, adults often need to relearn childhood lessons. Think about the things in life that need a large sum of money ¨C college education, weddings, starting a business, buying a home, and fun things like great trips. So when you have money, take off the top 10%, put it aside, save and use it wisely.

1.What is the piggy bank plan?

A. Setting a goal before making a travel plan.

B. Putting aside a little money regularly for future use.

C. Having determination even when doing small things.

D. Climbing a mountain a little a day before reaching the top.

2.Why did the writer¡¯s parents give him a piggy bank as a gift?

A. To help him develop the habit of saving.

B. To encourage him to climb mountains.

C. To please him with the latest fashion.

D. To teach him English pronunciation.

3.The piggy bank was first ______ .

A. a pig-like toy for children B. a worker¡¯s tool

C. an animal-look dish D. a cheap clay container

4.The last paragraph talks about ______ .

A. the enjoyment of taking a great trip

B. the importance of managing money

C. the difficulty of starting a business

D. the seriousness of educating children
