     Now more than 40 million foreigners around the world are learning Chinese, according to a report. The relationship
between the United States and China is becoming more and more important in the world. This has really influenced the
growth of Chinese language learning in U.S.
     I am Chris from the United States. I am one of the many people who are learning Chinese. I am studying at a Confucius
Institute(孔子学院)in New York. There are 10 students in our class. Some are over thirty years old. Some are middle
school students. Our teacher comes from Beijing. He is fun and often tells us interesting things in China.
     I think Chinese is difficult to learn. The biggest challenge for American learners is the writing. Chinese is completely
different from any other language in the world. It will take me a lot of time to learn enough Chinese characters(汉字). But
1 think there are many benefits (益处) of spending time in learning Chinese. One important benefit is that it makes me see
things from a different point of view, because Chinese is such a different language from English. I think for American students
the most important benefit is that learning a challenging language can open up their eyes.

    "The only thing holding you back is yourself. Never say never", said a rising 17-year-old singer, Justin
Bieber, who was just an ordinary boy in Canada a few years ago.
    After the accident of falling from the 18th floor and lying in the snow for three hours, my hands were
frozen and my spinal cord (脊髓)was seriously injured. All the doctors and professors in the famous
hospitals in Beijing told me that there was little chance for my hands and my body to recover (康复).
    After half a year of medical treatments and recovering exercises , I could not make any more progress
for over a year . What was worse , I suffered a lot from depression ( 绝望).On top of this , I suffered from insomnia , making every minute of the light seem to last forever. Hopelessly , mom and I came back to my hometown, which is small town in Guangdong.

would never be able to earn even a penny. I would never be able to repay the kindness I got from my
parents and many nice people . Life was meaningless.
    Now two years has passed.My hands are 80% recovered.I can even type faster than a healthy person ! Up to now, I have worked for a law firm as an interpreter for half a year already. Although I don’t earn as much as before, I am able to pay for the food and clothes I need. What’s more , I even have extra money
to buy thanksgiving presents for my parents and my boyfriend. Through my blogs( 博客) , many people
get to know me and like me.I can bring happiness to them. I can help those who are still suffering from
depression and the pain of illnesses by chatting with them….You see, I am living a meaningful life and I
am happier than ever I could have dreamed.
    So, my friends, never say never. As long as you are alive , there is always hope and possibilities. It is
never too late to take action to realize your dreams.

    Ever thought of moving to a new country? How about starting a new country? Patri Friedman is
planning to do just that. He left Google years ago to set up the Seasteading Institute. And his dream is
to build seasteads-----floating micro-nations in the middle of the ocean.
    So, what will life on a seastead be like? Probably a bit like life on a cruise liner ( 游轮), but much
larger, with shops , gyms , swimming pools, schools and other areas. In fact , the early seasteads may
actually be specially-rebuilt cruise liners. But as science advances, Friedman believes they’ll become
more like floating cities, with several hundred people.
    Seasteading raises a lot of questions . First of all , how will the new countries make money? The
Seasteading Institute has suggested several money-making ideas, including ocean-based theme parks,
casinos ( 赌场) and fish farming. There’s also the questions of safety. With storms, typhoons and pirates( 海盗) , the high seas are a dangerous place. However, the Institute says that it can stand bad weather
and prevent crimes with its well-designed systems.
    So, is this just a day dream? Well, maybe not. One of the people behind the project is Peter Thiel.
He founded PayPal and was one of the first investors (投资者) in Facebook. So far , he’s donated $
500,000 to the project.
    And Friedman isn’t wasting any time . He recently announced the creation of the Poseidon Award.
This will be given to the first seastead with fifty people. Friedman is hoping to hand out the award in
2015.
1. Where did Friedman use to work?
A. In Facebook.          
B. In Seastead Institute .  
C. In PayPal.        
D. In Google.
2. A future seastead may be most likely to look like ___________________.
A. a cruise liner          
B. a floating city        
C. a theme park      
D. a fishing farm
3. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Friedman is planning to move to a new country.    
B. Friedman is worried about the safety of seasteads.
C. Friedman has got some supporters for his project.  
D. Friedman has already won the Poseidon Award.
4.Which of the following can be the best titles of this passage?
A. Seasteading: a new idea of living                
B. Seasteading : a wild way of farming
C. Peter Thiel : a man behind the project            
D. Patri Friedman: a crazy day dreamer

      We all have our own ways of sharing our life experiences with others.
      Photographers use cameras,artists use brushes, musicians use songs and writers use stories.
      Spencer Johnson"s story Who Moved My Cheese? shows changes exist in (存在于) our life.  Life
 changes and so we do. We must change ourselves to face the changing environment, or we will fail.
      Just look at the cycle (循环) of the seasons .Trees bud (发芽) in spring and in summer their leaves
 turn green. In autumn, their leaves start to fall onto the ground. When winter arrives, there are no leaves
 on trees. Next spring the cycle begins again.  Since we know there are cycles in nature, we can prepare
 for them. We know it is colder in winter and hotter in summer, so we can dress properly.
      Since we accept the cycles of nature,we should also accept the changes in our life.
      We can prepare ourselves for changes by becoming more flexible (灵活的). We can regard the
 changes in our life as chances. As we keep changing ourselves, we can keep up with the changes in our
 life.
