举一反三
When we were done, we got back into our car and before I started it, we noticed a man standing outside in front of the building. He was a homeless man with worn clothes and it looked like he had gone in and gotten himself some coffee or something warm to drink since it was cold this time of the year. He must have not had enough money to get something to eat.
Then a dog walked up to the front of the building. I could tell she was a “she”, because you could tell that she had baby dogs. She was terribly in need of something to eat and I felt so bad for her. I knew if she didn’t eat soon, she and her baby dogs would not make it.
I and my wife sat there and looked at her. We noticed that people walked by and didn’t even pet her, like most people do when they walk by an animal in front of a store. We still did not do anything. But the homeless man, who I thought did not buy himself anything to eat, went back into the store. And what he did brought tears to me and my wife. He had gone into the store and with what money he may have had, bought a can of dog food and fed that dog.
This story plays a great part in our lives. You see, that was Mother’s Day weekend. And a lot of people forget that some animals are parents too.
It took a homeless man, to show me what I should have done. He make me a better man that day.

My friend had also seen it. He grew up living in a forest in Europe, and the moon meant a lot to him then. It had touched much of his life.
I know the feeling. Last December I took my seven-year-old daughter to the mountainous jungle of northern India with some friends. We stayed in a forest rest house with no electricity or hot water. Our group had campfires outside every night, and indoors when it was too cold outside. The moon grew to its fullest during our trip. Between me and the high mountains lay three or four valleys. Not a light shone in them and not a sound could be heard. It was one of the quietest places I have ever known, a bottomless well of silence. And above me was the full moon.
Today our lives are connected with glass, metal, plastic and fiber-glass. We eat and breathe things our bodies were not designed to process. We have televisions, cell phones, pagers, electricity, heaters, air-conditioners, cars and computers. White noise and pollution is in the air. Radio waves and strange lights are constantly disturbing our minds and bodies.
Struggling through traffic that evening at the end of a tiring day, most of it spent indoors, I saw the moon and remembered these things. And I thought: before long, I would like to live in a small cottage. There I will grow vegetables and read books and walk in the mountains and perhaps write. I may grow old there. But I will be able to walk outside on a cold silent night and touch the moon.

They 42 about an hour later with a new proposal and new hot peppers they had just picked. 43 they had reasoned that when a pepper was 44 in color it was the hottest kind. Marcus and Ellen would eat the green colored peppers 45 Sam and I would eat the red colored peppers. Giving Sam a wink(使眼色),we 46 . Showing good sportsmanship(体育精神),I had the kids 47 the peppers that Sam and I would eat. They picked the largest two red peppers. Then they picked a 48 green one for themselves. Knowing what was going to 49 ,I told them I would make it 50 for them. I cut one pepper in half and removed the 51 to reduce the heat a little. The contest was one of speed rather than 52 .Each child had pepper in hand and was 53 to start .
Looking at my 54 I said, OK, on three. One, Two, THREE. So much happened all at once. Tears, screams and spitting running around, the children 55 their mouth with fast waving hands. A short time later, Sam and I agreed that the red tasted better than the green.

He doesn"t care about civil liberties; he doesn"t care about free speech; he cares about stability. But Putin, 55, is enormously popular in Russia, presiding over a resurgent economy based on income from oil and natural gas. On the other hand, stability is what Russia needed and that"s why Russians adore(爱戴)him.
Time magazine said on its Web site that Putin, the son of a factory worker had led Russia with persistence, a sharp vision and a sense that he showed the spirit of "Mother Russia".
The selection came days after Putin announced a plan to hold onto power after his term ends next year. Putin said on Monday that if his close ally(盟友),Dmitry Medvedev, won the presidency, he would serve as Medvedev’s prime minister. "Putin has put his country back on the map. And he intends to redraw it himself,"Time said. "He will continue to lead his country as its prime minister and attempt to transform it into a new kind of nation, beholden to neither East nor West."
Time said the person of the year distinction, which it has awarded since 1927, is not an endorsement(支持)or a popularity prize but a recognition of the individuals and forces that shape the world. "At significant cost of, the principles and ideas that free nations prize, (Putin) has performed an extraordinary feat of leadership in placing stability on a nation that has rarely known it and brought Russia back to the table of world power. For that reason, Vladimir Putin is Time"s 2007 Person of the Year," the magazine said.
Time had earlier selected four other Kremlin leaders for the distinction: Stalin, who was chosen twice, Nikita Khrushchev, Yuri Andropov and Mikhail Gorbachev.

D.Medvedev will certainly be elected Russian President on March 3. |
The yet-to-be-named book is cryptically (隐秘地) referred to as "Project X" by Ian Fleming Publications Ltd., which owns the rights to Fleming"s work.Most of the details surrounding Project X, to be published in May, are being kept under wraps, but under gentle coaxing (用好话劝诱) Deaver begins to spill his guts."The novel," he says, "is set in the present day, in 2011.Bond is a young agent for the British secret service.He"s 29 or 30 years old, and he"s an Afghan war vet." That in itself is big news.After all, if Bond were aging in real time — he first appeared on the screen in 1953 — the now doddering (老态龙钟的) 007 would be nearly 90.
But first up: a new stand-alone Deaver novel, Edge (Simon & Schuster, $26.99), to be published Tuesday.It"s about a federal agent who risks his life to protect a Washington police detective from a man hired to extract information from him using any means at his disposal (任由个人支配的).
Sipping coffee while seated on a leather chair in a sitting room decorated with portraits of his dogs and show ribbons, the mild-mannered author who writes about murderers and serial killers talks about his career and the solid fan base that has allowed him to pursue writing full time since 1990."I may not sell as many books as John Grisham(although he has sold a cool 20 million), but I have a very loyal fan base," says Deaver, 60, who wrote some of his novels while working as a Wall Street lawyer.Deaver"s initiation into the Bond family — more than 100 million 007 novels have sold worldwide — could significantly raise his profile (知名度).
Other novelists have written Bond novels since Ian Fleming"s death in 1964 — including Kingsley Amis, John Gardner and, most recently, Sebastian Faulks — but they all took place in the original era.Deaver is taking a new approach."There"s no more Cold War to fight," says Deaver, so his new Bond, of the Fleming estate, will fight "post-9/11 evil." "I want to stay true to the original James Bond, who many people don"t know much about," he says, referring to the secret agent Fleming portrayed in 14 novels, and not the movie Bond."People know Daniel Craig, they know Pierce Brosnan, they know Roger Moore and Sean Connery, all of whom brought a great deal to the stories of 007.But the original Bond was a very dark, edgy (另类的) character."
小题1:Which of the following is NOT true about Jeffery Deaver?
A.Jeffery Deaver is a "00" agent in Her Majesty"s secret service in a James Bond movie. |
B.Jeffery Deaver was working as a lawyer while he wrote some novels about murderers and serial killers. |
C.It is the loyal fan base that has allowed Jeffery Deaver to keep on writing since 1990. |
D.Jeffery Deaver is best known for his thrillers rather than for 007 novels. |
A.Tell others what he knows about the yet-to-be-named 007 novel. |
B.Tell others everything he knows about Ian Fleming Publications Ltd.. |
C.Have the courage to talk about the 007 agent James Bond. |
D.Have the determination to talk about "Project X". |
A.Jeffery Deaver | B.Ian Fleming |
C.John Grisham | D.Kingsley Amis |
A.The book to be published in May is named "Project X" by Ian Fleming Publications Ltd.. |
B.The book is about a federal agent risking his life to protect a Washington police detective. |
C.The book features a young James Bond, an Afghan war vet working for the British secret service. |
D.The book features a young James Bond who fights Cold War. |
