This afternoon I went to see my grandfather by a bus. It was very crowded and I had to stand. Besides me, there was a woman hold a little boy in her arms. In front of her, a young man occupies two seats, pretending to be sleeping. I heard the little boy curious asking his mother, “What's wrong with the uncle？” I had thought if perhaps the woman would blame the man. Beyond her expectations, the woman answered with a smile, “Be quiet. This uncle must very tired because of hard work.” The young man must have heard the word. His face turned red but offered one seat to the woman at once.

The first day of the month of May is known as May Day. It is the time of year when warmer weather begins. People celebrate the coming of summer with customs that are expressions of joy and hope after a long winter. Today, May Day activities have been moved to the May Day holiday on the first Monday of the month. It is a public holiday when families take advantage of the time off to visit some of the UK’s many attractions, including parks, zoos, historic buildings, ancient towns and villages and beautiful countryside.

May Day celebrations have their origins in the Roman festival of Flora, the goddess of fruit and flowers, which marked the beginning of summer. People would decorate their houses and villages with leaves and flowers they picked at daybreak in the belief that the vegetation spirits would bring good luck. In the very early morning, young girls went into the fields and washed their faces with dew (露水). They believed this made them very beautiful for the following year.

May Day was an important day in the Middle Ages and was a favorite holiday of many English villages. People of the time used to cut down young trees and stick them in the ground in the village to mark the arrival of summer. This is the origin of the maypole (五月柱). People danced around them in celebration of the end of winter. Maypoles were once common all over England and were kept from one year to the next. The tallest maypole is said to have been put up in London on the Strand in 1661. It stood more than 143 feet high and was cut down in 1717, when it was used by Newton to support a new reflecting telescope (反射式望远镜) invented by Dutch scientist Huygens.

1.How do British people celebrate May Day?

A. They visit friends and family members.

B. They celebrate it on the first Monday of May.

C. They spend a lot of time shopping around.

D. They show great love for the long winter.

2.The underlined word “this” in Paragraph 2 refers to _____.

A. washing the face with dew

D. getting up early in the morning

3.What can we learn about the maypole?

It was 7:15 in the morning of February 8, 2007. I was walking along Park Road towards the east while an old man came out of the park on the other sides of the street. Then I saw a yellow car drive up Third Street and made a right turn into Park Road. The next moment the car hit the man while she was crossing the road. He fell with a cry. The car didn't stop and drive off at full speed heading west. I noticed the driver was young woman wore a pair of glasses and the plate number was AC864.

Neither rain nor snow nor the dark of night can separate Tennessee postal carrier “Mailman Mike” from his 4-and-a-half-year-old friend Carter Lawson – or keep them from their appointments.

For the past nine months, the two have teamed up every day in the preschooler’s Knoxville neighborhood for a few minutes of delivering mail together and chatting with fellow neighbors. Lawson wants to be a mail carrier when he grows up, and in an inspiring story, his mom told us how mailman Mike Crenshaw has been a role model to her son. “Anyone could just be like ‘Go away, kid’, but Mike has really gone out of his way to talk with Carter,” said Cassie Lawson of the United States Postal Service carrier. Little Carter even got his own uniform to match Mike’s. “It’s been really cute. I just couldn’t believe he got a full mailman’s costume,” the postal service employee said.

“Every letter carrier has stops he looks forward to and this is the one I look forward to every day,” said Mike. “He’s the end of my day, and the best part of my day. Not because it’s the end, but because he’s such a cute little guy.”

The man and the little boy’s connection isn’t a surprise to Fredric Rolando, president of the National Association of Letter Carriers. “Kids respond to mailmen because letter carriers are a friendly, uniformed part of the neighborhood who bring something to their house every day, and are someone they come to recognize and trust,” Rolando said. “It’s the same for the elderly, but in addition, letter carriers may be the only person they communicate with all day.”

1.Mike Crenshaw meets Carter Lawson every day to _____ .

A. play with the boy

B. get mail from the boy

C. listen to the boy’s stories

D. send mail together with the boy

2.Why does Mike Crenshaw like the last stop of his day? _____

A. It is where he lives.

B. It is where he is paid.

C. He wants to be with Carter.

D. He can finish his work by then.

3.What is the best title for the text? _____

A. A letter carrier is praised for helping a kid.

B. A mailman makes a little boy’s dream come true.

C. Every letter carrier has stops he looks forward to.

D. The importance of letter carriers cannot be ignored.

A few days ago, I was sitting in a Thai restaurant enjoying a meal when I got on a phone call from a friend I hadn’t spoken to in a long time. In my enthusiasm and excitement, I talked quite louder than usual voice and in Spanish, my mother tongue.

A few minutes into the call, an old lady sitting at the table beside mine got up, seemingly offended, and asked the restaurant staff to relocate (重新安排) a table as far away as possible from this man who seemed to be impolite.

I sank in my seat out of embarrassment. I ended the call soon afterwards and felt the urge to apologize. Before getting up, I looked around to see where she was and she was at the table farthest away from me. I noticed that the lady was alone and staring out the window. I found a tinge (气息) of sadness or anxiety and perhaps a desire for aloneness and peace. But I had obviously destroyed it minutes earlier.

Right then I abandoned my plan for a conventional apologetic gesture. Seeing those funny smile cards in my wallet, I took one out and wrote some words to express my apology. On signing my restaurant bill, I asked a waiter to secretly charge the lady’s meal to me and hand her the smile card instead of her bill.

Did she take it the wrong way, I wondered? Did she get confused? Did she refuse the anonymous (匿名的) offer? And so on. I just waited and felt nervous to learn the outcome. To my pleasant surprise, things turned out the best possible way.

The waiter approached me in a joy, telling me, “In the many times she had dined here before, I had never seen the old lady smile as she did when receiving the smile card and the $0 bill. She thanked me even though I explained that someone else did the job.”

1.The old lady changed her seat mainly because of __________.

A. her private phone call

B. the author’s loud voice

C. the views out of the window

D. the restaurant staff’s mistake

2.What can we infer from Paragraph 3?

A. The author didn’t stop talking though he felt embarrassed.

B. The author went up to the old lady and apologized to her.

C. The old lady just moved to the farthest table to see outside.

D. The lady didn’t have a nice mood and liked to stay alone.

3.Feeling sorry, the author offered the old lady the following EXCEPT __________.

A. an apologetic gesture

B. a smile card

C. a free meal

D. some written words to apologize

4.Which of the following is the best title of this passage?

A. A Misunderstanding Caused by Different Cultures

B. An Unpleasant Experience in Thailand

C. A Smile Card for a Sincere Apology

D. An Old Lady Who Never Smiles
