Hi, Joe. I have read about your situation. This is common for everyone to have arguments or even quarrels with friends. So take it easy, and find the way out.

You may follow my suggestions. First, try to find out that who did wrong and cause the arguments. If it is you, be brave enough to say sorry for your friend. And unless it is your friend, you shouldn’t be too hard on him or her either. Instead, try to taking it easy and be kind. Second, give yourself and your friend some times to calm down, as it is not necessary to solve the arguments immediate.

Good luck, best wishes for you!

Can technology improve your trip? Meet Judy Williams. When she and her husband recently checked into Blu Hotel in Zurich, a clerk asked them to sign the dotted line on a room rate hundreds of dollars higher than their online offer.

“It was not a cheap stay,” says Williams, a lawyer from Billings, Mont. But it became more of one after her husband fired up the Booking.com app he’d used to book their room on his smart phone. “As soon as we showed him the cost, he honored it,” Williams says.

Technology may create challenges for travelers but it can also solve them. It’s more than making sure of a hotel cost. The latest Booking.com can help users select hotels by location, make a secure booking and view the confirmed (已确认的) cost so they never need to re-discuss their hotel price.

Another pain point for travelers is traffic that eats away precious vacation time. There’s a new app called Commute which is aimed at users who have to make the same trip every day. But if you’re headed to Los Angeles or Honolulu, where visitors can easily get stuck in hours of heavy traffic, Commute can help.

Just input basic information about your destination and expected leaving time, and the app will start sending you traffic information 15 minutes before you leave. Testing Commute proved to be a challenge for me, because my home address is about 900 miles from my place of work. But if you have only a short distance to travel through a heavily populated area, you can use Commute to avoid traffic jams.

Another source of travel-related problems is money. That’s particularly true when you’re dealing with a foreign currency. The latest Travel Money Tracker helps travelers prevent currency mix-ups. It immediately changes a country’s native currency to yours, so you know exactly how much that Espresso (浓咖啡) in Milan costs in dollars. It can also warn you when you’re overspending, which can sometimes be a problem when you’re on vacation. The only catch, of course, is that you have to remember to record all your purchases.

Taken together, these apps solve some of the most common travel problems. But not all of them. Some things, no smart phone can fix, which means I get to keep my job – for now at least.

1.What does the writer want to tell through the example of Judy Williams?

A. The cost of Blu Hotel was higher than that of others.

B. The clerk was very friendly and patient.

C. The smart phones have many functions.

D. Technology can make our trips better.

2.Commute is not suitable for those who_______________.

A. have a long journey

B. go on the same trip every day

C. can easily get stuck in traffic jams

D. travel a short distance downtown

3.What is the function of Travel Money Tracker?

A. It tells people how much Espresso costs.

B. It warns people when they are shopping.

C. It changes the native currency to yours.

D. It records all people’s purchases.

4.What is the purpose of this passage?

A. To encourage people to travel.

B. To introduce some new apps.

C. To help people with technology problems.

D. To provide people with traveling information.

“Beating is a sign of affection, cursing (骂)is a sign of love.”

Many may not expect to hear the words of the old Chinese saying in these modern times—with parents wealthier and better educated than they have ever been—but experts say they still ring true.

Today, it seems, Chinese parents are more likely to send their children to pre?college military academies in the United States in the hope that some tough love will pave the way to success.

“Good education doesn’t mean letting your children enjoy privileges, especially our boys.” said Song Wenming, an entrepreneur (企业家)in Jinhua’ East China’s Zhejiang province. “They should be raised in tough conditions to know what to fight for in the future.”

In August, Song sent his 17?year?old son to Valley Forge Military Academy (VFMA) in Pennsylvania. And he is far from alone, even though it takes a lot of money—around $48,000 per year—to send a child to a strict military school.

Statistics show that an increasing number of Chinese students have been registering with such academies.

A few years ago, there were no Chinese students at Valley Forge. Today, there are 28.“All of the Chinese students at Valley Forge came from wealthy families; some of them were spoiled.” said Jennifer Myers, director of marketing and communications at the school.

Song’s only son, Song Siyu, had a rocky start during his first six weeks at the school. The teenager said he went to the school voluntarily but did not expect it to be as difficult.

Now, three months later, he has perfected the art of taking a bath in 35 seconds, finishing a meal without looking at his food, and making his bed with precision. He can even take criticism, no matter how unreasonable.

“The training is hard but I know it is good for self?development of individuals.” said Song Siyu. “The endless training and scolding are just ways to build up our character; they are not personal.”

But his enthusiasm is not universal. Ten of the 13 Chinese students who joined the academy this year have transferred to other schools.

But for those who stick with it, there is a reward for all the hard work.

1.From the second paragraph, we can know the old Chinese saying ________ .

A. is out of date in modern times

B. is disagreed by rich parents

C. is still worth trusting

D. is deeply believed by better educated parents

2.The underlined sentence means that _________.

A. Song sent his only son to military school，so he feels lonely

B. Song is the only one who sends his child to military school

C. there are other people sending their children to military school besides Song

D. the fee of the military school is so high that only Song can afford it

3.How many Chinese students are there at Valley Forge before this year?

A. 10. B. 13. C. 15. D. 25.

4.Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?

A. It's likely that more and more Chinese students will attend VFMA.

B. Most Chinese parents approve of educating their children by beating and cursing nowadays.

C. Song Siyu had no difficulty in adjusting to the life at VFMA.

D. Most Chinese students support the way of education at VFMA.

Who taught you to speak English? Your parents, while you were a young child? Your teachers at school ? Perhaps even the BBC as a grown-up. Whoever it was, somehow you have developed an understanding of what is rapidly becoming a truly global language.

There are now about 376 million people who speak English as their first language and about the same number who have learnt it besides their mother tongue. It is said there are one billion people learning English now and about 80% of the information on the Internet is in English.

Is this a good thing, or a bad thing? Should we celebrate the fact that more and more of us can communicate, using a common language, across countries and cultures? Or should we worry about the dangers of “mono-culturalism", a world in which we all speak the same language, eat the same food and listen to the same music?

Does it matter if an increasing number of people speak the same language? On the contrary (相反),I would have thought——although I have never accepted the argument that if only we all understood each other better, there would be fewer wars. Ask the people of India (where many of them speak at least some English) and Pakistan (the same situation with India)…

If we all speak English, will we then all start eating McDonald's burgers? Surely not. If English becomes more dominant (占主导地位的), it will kill other languages? I doubt it. When I travel in Africa or Asia, I am always surprised by how many people can speak not only their own language but also one or more other related languages, as well as English and perhaps some French or German as well.

When we discussed this on Talking Point a couple of years ago, we received a wonderfully poetic email from a listener in Ireland. "The English language is a beautiful language. Maybe it's like a rose," he said. "But who would ever want their garden just full of roses?"

Well, I love roses, and I think they make a beautiful addition to any garden. But the way I see it, just by planting a few roses, you don't necessarily need to pull out everything else. If more and more people want to plant English roses, that's fine by me.

1. By saying "Ask the people of India … and Pakistan" (in Paragraph 4), the author is trying to show that _____.

A. speaking the same language doesn't necessarily bring peace

B. wars can destroy the relationship between two countries

C. English doesn't kill other languages

D. English is widely used in the world

2.What does "rose" in the last two paragraphs stand for?

A. The world B. Family

C. Language D. The Earth

3.The author would probably agree that _____.

A. it's very hard to plant many kinds of flowers in a garden

B. it's good for people from other countries to learn English

C. more and more people like to plant roses in their gardens

D. English is easier to learn than other languages

4.This passage is mainly about _____.

A. why English has become a global language

B. how many people in the world speak English

C. how people in the world learn English as a foreign language

D. whether we need to worry about English being a world language

Earthquake can strike without warning. But many injuries and deaths from this kind of natural disaster can be prevented if people follow these safety tips.

If you’re inside a building, stay there! One of the most dangerous things to do in an earthquake is to try to leave a building. 1. Drop to the ground. Get under an object(物体) that is not easily damaged. Hold on to it until the shaking stops. You can also get to a corner formed by two walls with your arms over your hand. If you’re in bed when the quake hits, stay there and protect your head with a pillow.

2. Don’t take shelter under a tree, streetlights, electric poles or tall buildings. If you are driving, stop as quickly as possible and stay away from overpasses(立交桥), buildings, bridges or anything else that might fall or collapse beneath you. 3.

If you are trapped in ruins, cover your mouth with a handkerchief or a piece of clothing. Use your cell phone to call for help if possible. Don’t shout. 4. Tap(敲) on a pipe or the wall so rescuers can find you.

Be prepared for aftershocks. 5. However, sometimes they even happen months later. Therefore, if you are not in a safe position(位置) after the first shock, you should move quickly but carefully to a safer place.

A．Don’t move about or kick up dust.

B．If you’re outside, go to an open space.

C．Shouting can cause you to breathe in dust.

D．Don’t park your car under a tree or any tall object.

E．Take a good hold of your cell phone in the building.

F．They can happen in the first hours after the earthquake.

G．Most injuries happen when people inside buildings try to go out.

I was in my first year of college, making friends and enjoying life, but then my whole world turned upside down. I had a heart attack. It felt like someone was stabbing (刺) me in the chest with a knife over and over again.

After three months of rest I went back to college, but then things took a turn for the worse. I was staying at my Nana’s house and woke up in the middle of the night with a terrible pain in my chest. I knew I was having a heart attack again.

I couldn’t even shout for help. Luckily my grandpa was going to the toilet and heard me falling out of bed. If it wasn’t for him, I probably wouldn’t be here.

The two holes in my heart were causing the problems and I needed an operation immediately to repair them. Unfortunately, the surgery didn’t go well and they only managed to repair one of the holes.

When I woke up from the operation, I had a really dry mouth and couldn’t wait to have something to eat and drink. The biggest shock of all came when I was told that I needed a heart transplant and was put on the register. The doctors were stunned at how quickly heart failure came on – it usually takes years, but it took my heart less than six months to get to that stage. My whole world came crashing down, but I stayed strong. It was a choice between crying every day and getting on with my life.

As time went on, life became even harder. I hated feeling weak all the time and needing help with everything. It got to the point where I thought I would never get a new heart. I was diagnosed with depression.

Even though I thought that Christmas 2008 would be my last, I really enjoyed it and even had a good New Year. Everyone was crying for me when the clock struck midnight and they told me to keep fighting.

A week later, I got a call from the doctors saying they’d found a suitable donor (捐赠人). My wish came true and thankfully the operation went well. I spent four hours in surgery where they took out my old heart and put a new one in. When I woke up I burst out crying. I had a second chance at life.

1. What happened when the author was having his second heart attack?

A. He felt less pain than he had during the previous one.

B. He realized what it was and shouted for help in time.

C. He narrowly escaped death thanks to his grandfather.

D. He decided to have an operation to repair the two holes in his heart.

2.When the author learned that he needed a heart transplant, he ______.

A. couldn’t help crying every day

B. chose to continue to fight for his life

C. felt so depressed that he tried to kill himself

D. was so anxious that his heart failure developed very quickly

3. At the beginning of 2009, the author ______.

A. was convinced that the past Christmas had been his last

B. felt blessed and grateful for his second chance at life

C. received a heart transplant but the operation didn’t go well

D. felt hopeless all the time and was diagnosed with depression

4.Which one would be the best title for the text?

A. Choices matter

B. Rebuilding my world
