摘要:B Dear Miss Austen, Your letter made me happy. I did not expect such a full return. I am eighty years old, and I am blind. There is little I can do except knit, and that is why I knit so many caps and sweaters and scarves. Of course I cannot write this, so my daughter-in-law is doing it for me. She also sewed the seams and made the buttonholes for the knitted things. I know something of the work you are doing. At the age of nineteen I married a man who was going to China to be a missionary. For forty years, with an occasional year at home in America, we worked in China, and during that time our two sons and a daughter were born to us, of whom only one son survives. After forty years, my husband’s health began to fail, we returned to the United States where he took charge of a settlement house in Brooklyn, New York. A surprising number of the problems we had met in China. When my husband died, I came to Toronto to live with my son and daughter-in-law. They are very good to me, and I pride myself that I am little trouble to them, though it is hard for a blind old lady to be sure of anything. What I most want to say, my dear, is this. For sixty years I have been making up missionary packages of such clothing or food or medicine or books as I could collect. In various parts of the world and to the various parts of the world I have sent them. Sometimes I have received a printed slip of acknowledgement from the headquarters storehouse or mission board, sometimes nothing. Occasionally I have been informed that my contribution was sent to Syria or America or the upper Yangtze. But never before in all that time have I had a personal letter picturing the village and telling me who was wearing the clothing and what they said. I did not suppose that ever in my lifetime I should receive a letter like that. May God bless you. Yours sincerely, Laura N. Russell 59. This letter must be a reply in response to the letter written by . A. someone who sent her a package B. someone who works in the headquarters storehouse C. her son and daughter-in-law D. someone who knows where she had sent her packages 60.The word “knit in the first paragraph most probably means . A. to design fashion B. to make paper-cuts C. to make clothing with sticks and long thread D. to draw pictures on clothes 61.All the following statements are right Except . A. It is her daughter-in-law who helped her with knitting B. The writer thinks that she is so useful to her son and daughter-in-law C. They lived in China most of their life D. The writer has sent many packages to the people who need

Dear Editor,

I’m a Senior I student in a middle school. This term, my favorite teacher, Miss Mao, no longer teaches us. I want to see her, but I’m afraid that she no longer likes me and I don’t want to trouble her. I really miss her. What should I do?

                                                                Tian Yan

Dear Tian Yan,

It’s bad luck that you have lost your favorite teacher. But, if she is still in your school, nothing can stop you going to see her. When she isn’t busy, ask her if she minds having a quick chat. You can then tell her she was your favorite teacher—everyone is happy to know that they are liked!

If she has left the school, it will be more difficult to meet her. It will be hard, but remember people always come and go in their lives. We can’t rely on them to be with us all the time.

You may be sad to say goodbye to her, but we can remember and learn from her. Think of her best qualities.

You could also try looking for similar qualities in your other teachers. Study hard and give your new teacher a chance. In time, you might start to see that he or she has different qualities to learn from.

Finally, you can not completely rely on other people to get you through your studies, or even your life.

                                                                Editor

  At Denver there was an crowd of passengers into the coaches(车厢)on the eastbound B.&M.express.In one coach there sat a very pretty young woman dressed in elegant taste and surrounded by all the luxurious comforts of an experienced traveler.Among the newcomers were two young men, one of handsome presence with a bold, frank face expression and manner; the other a ruffled, glum-faced person, heavily built and roughly dressed.The two were handcuffed(拷上手铐)together.

  As they passed down the aisle of the coach the only available seat offered was a reversed one facing the attractive young woman.Here the linked couple seated themselves.The young woman's glance fell upon them with a distant, swift disinterest; then with a lovely smile brightening her face and a tender pink tingeing(稍加染色,影响)her rounded cheeks, she held out a little gray-gloved hand.When she spoke her voice, full, sweet, and deliberate, proclaimed that its owner was accustomed to speak and be heard.

  "Well, Mr.Easton, if you will make me speak first, I suppose I must.Don't you ever recognize old friends when you meet them in the West?"

  The younger man aroused himself sharply at the sound of her voice, seemed to struggle with a slight embarrassment which he threw off instantly, and then clasped her fingers with his left hand.

  "It's Miss Fairchild," he said, with a smile."I'll ask you to excuse the other hand; "it's otherwise engaged just at present."

  He slightly raised his right hand, bound at the wrist by the shining "bracelet" to the left one of his companion.The glad look in the girl's eyes slowly changed to a bewildered horror.The glow faded from her cheeks.Her lips parted in a vague(含糊,犹豫), relaxing distress.Easton, with a little laugh, as if amused, was about to speak again when the other forestalled him.The glum-faced man had been watching the girl's face expression with veiled glances from his keen, shrewd eyes.

  "You'll excuse me for speaking, miss, but, I see you're acquainted with(认识,熟悉)the officer here.If you'll ask him to speak a word for me when we get to the pen(围栏,监狱)he'll do it, and it'll make things easier for me there.He's taking me to Leavenworth prison.It's seven years for cheating."

  "Oh!" said the girl, with a deep breath and returning color."So that is what you are doing out here? An officer!"

  "My dear Miss Fairchild," said Easton, calmly, "I had to do something.Money has a way of taking wings with itself, and you know it takes money to keep step with our crowd in Washington.I saw this opening(通道)in the West, and--well, an officer isn't quite as high a position as that of ambassador, but--"

  "The ambassador," said the girl, warmly, "doesn't call any more.I needn't ever have done so.You ought to know that.And so now you are one of these brave Western heroes, and you ride and shoot and go into all kinds of dangers.That's different from the Washington life.You have been missed from the old crowd."

  The girl's eyes, fascinated, went back, widening a little, to rest upon the glittering handcuffs.

  "Don't you worry about them, miss," said the other man."All officers handcuff themselves to their prisoners to keep them from getting away.Mr.Easton knows his business."

  "Will we see you again soon in Washington?" asked the girl.

  "Not soon, I think," said Easton."My butterfly days are over, I fear."

  "I love the West," said the girl irrelevantly.Her eyes were shining softly.She looked away out the car window.She began to speak truly and simply without the gloss of style and manner:"Mamma and I spent the summer in Denver.She went home a week ago because father was slightly ill.I could live and be happy in the West.I think the air here agrees with me.Money isn't everything.But people always misunderstand things and remain stupid--"

  "Say, officer," shouted the glum-faced man."This isn't quite fair.I'm needing a drink, and haven't had a smoke all day.Haven't you talked long enough? Take me in the smoker now, won't you? I'm half dead for a pipe."

  The bound travelers rose to their feet, Easton with the same slow smile on his face.

  "I can't deny a require for tobacco," he said, lightly."It's the one friend of the unfortunate.Good-bye, Miss Fairchild.Duty calls, you know." He held out his hand for a farewell.

  "It's too bad you are not going East," she said, reclothing herself with manner and style."But you must go on to Leavenworth, I suppose?"

  "Yes," said Easton, "I must go on to Leavenworth."

  The two men sidled down the aisle into the smoker.

  The two passengers in a seat near by had heard most of the conversation.Said one of them:"That officer is a good sort of man.Some of these Western fellows are all right."

  "Pretty young to hold an office like that, isn't he?" asked the other.

  "Young!" exclaimed the first speaker, "why-Oh! Didn't you catch on? Say-did you ever know an officer to handcuff a prisoner to his right hand?"
