  Sad stories are not very nice to read about, but if we think and talk about them, we may be able to prevent more accidents.

  How can fire or hot things be a danger in the house?Matches, of course, are always dangerous in the hands of young children.A little fire on waste land can easily get out of control.A wind comes, sparks(火花)are blown on to the roof of a house, and the whole building may be burnt to the ground before you can even call the fire brigade.Kerosene(煤油)lamps, too, can be very dangerous.Quite recently there was a bad accident in a village house.The mosquito-net(蚊帐)over a baby’s bed was blown against a lamp and caught fire.The bed-clothes and even the clothes of the baby were burnt before the fire was discovered.

  Long grass rubbish round a house can also lead to a big fire, as most people know.However, not everybody is careful with such things as paper bags and toys; these will burn up in a flash if you hold them near a fire.

  Young children often reach up to a table to take a bottle down by its handle.If the bottle or pot is full of boiling water, you can guess what will happen.Similarly, when a baby’s bath is prepared, cold water should be put in first.If any hot water has to be used, this should be put into the bath after the cold water and not before it.

  Many fireworks(烟花)can lead to blindness or other injuries, especially those which are pushed into bamboo sticks.Wooden spears or swords should be used only by children with sense enough not to injure other people.

  Very young children often have to be watched carefully.They put everything they find into their mouths to see whether it can be eaten, or sucked! Medicines have to be put out of their reach.A pill which might be harmless for an adult can sometimes kill a baby.Older children have to be careful when drinking from a bottle.Some of them walk about as they drink.Tip up the bottle to get the last drop out, then fall over something on the ground.If they are unlucky, they fall in such a way that the broken glass makes a horrible wound in the face or neck.

  This is not a complete list of the dangers in and near a house, but it is enough to remind you to be careful.

Dear Boris,

Thanks for your nice letter. After I had spent a week with my English family, I slowly began to understand their English a little better.It’s very different from what I learned at school! Students in my group are from different cities of Britain and their dialects (方言) are different too! Some of their accents (口音) are quite strong and they also have their own words and expressions.

But it’s not the language that’s different and surprising.Before I came to England I had thought that fish and chips were eaten every day.That’s quite wrong! I get rather mad now when I hear all the foolish words about typical (典型的) English food.

I had expected to see “London fog”.Do you remember our texts about it? We had no idea that most of this ‘thick fog’ disappeared many years ago when people stopped using coal in their homes.But the idea to speak about the weather was very helpful.The weather in London is really changeable.

On the other hand habits are different.People tell me what is typically British here in London is not always typical in Wales or Scotland.Local habits and traditions are not the same as what we knew.

But what is ordinary for all British is that they follow traditions.Probably Britain has more living signs of its past than many other countries.And people have always been proud of having ancient buildings in capitals, big cities and the countryside.

I will tell you more about Britain in my other letters.

Love from Britain,

Pete

1.What does Pete feel about the English language?

2.Typical English food _______.

3.The British people like to talk about weather because ________.

A.there is thick fog in London              B.they like the weather in Britain

C.the weather changes a lot               D.it can be helpful

4.What do you know about habits in Britain from the passage?

A.They are not the same in different parts of Britain.

True love and kindness is needed in this world. It comes from appreciating the object, and rejoicing in the object, wanting the object to be happy and well, but holding it lightly, not tightly. And this goes for possessions too. You are in an extremely materialistic society in which the possession of more and bigger and better is held up as the total criteria(标准) for being happy.
What we own is not the problem; it’s our attitude towards our possessions. If we have something and we enjoy it, that’s fine. If we lose it, then that’s OK. But if we lose it and we are very attached to it in our heart, then that’s not fine. It doesn’t matter what the object is, because it’s not the object which is the problem. The problem is our own inner grasping mind that keeps us bound to the wheel, and keeps us suffering. If our mind was open and could just let thing flow naturally, there would be no pain. Do you understand? We need our everyday life to work on this, to really begin to see the greed of attachment in the mind and gradually begin to lessen and lessen it.
There is a famous story of a coconut, which is said to be used in India to catch monkeys. People take a coconut and make a little hole just big enough for a monkey to put its paw through. And inside the coconut, which is nailed to a tree, they have put something sweet. So the monkey comes along, sees the coconut, smells something nice inside, and he puts his hand in. he catches hold of the sweet inside, so now he has a fist. But the hole is too small for the fist to get out. When the hunters come back, the monkey is caught. But of course, all the monkey has to do is let go. Nobody’s holding the monkey except the monkey’s grasping greedy mind. Nobody is holding us on the wheel; we are clinging to it ourselves. There are no chains.
54. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?
A. Clinging Causes the Pain                       B. Don’t Learn from the Monkey
C. Giving Up is Holding                               D. Possessions are Pains
55. According to the first paragraph, which of the following statements is true?
A. The world now is lacking in true love.
B. Owning more means being happier in today’s society.
C. Today’s society is very realistic.                    
D. The society needs better criteria.
56. According to the passage, the monkey is caught because___________      .
A. the hunter is cleverer than the monkey   
B. the monkey wants to eat the sweet
C. the hole is too small for the monkey’s fist
D. the monkey doesn’t know giving up
57. Why did the author tell the story of the monkey?
A. Because he liked monkeys very much.
B. Because the story is very interesting.
C. Because he wants to explain the idea further.
D. Because he wants to make the passage attractive.
