about it.
Paul"s good friend, Sam, tried to comfort him. "What"s the big deal? I think Linda is kind of cute and
nice enough."
Paul glared at Sam. "Then why don"t you ask her to be your girlfriend? There she is, sitting all by
herself at the other end of the cafeteria. Go there and ask her to be your honey!"
"She"s crazy about you, not me," Sam replied.
"Well, I don"t want any girlfriend, especially not a girl like her! "Paul growled.
Sam wouldn"t give up. "The only thing pesky (讨厌的) about her is that she keeps writing you those
notes ."
"I don"t like notes at all!" Paul interrupted. He took another sip of milk.
"Did you notice those strange brown eyes? Why aren"t they normal red or pink?"
Sam took another look at Linda. "I think her face is a lovely shade of green. And her dark green curly
hair is quite pretty. Besides, she"s very gentle and that"s what really matters."
Paul stuck out his tongue. "I think I"m going to be sick! I"d better save my dessert for later." He
crammed a small bag of Maggot Munchies into his even smaller shirt pocket. "The fact is, I have a
problem. That girl is getting on my nerves! "
Sam followed Paul"s example and decided to save his dessert for later. However, he carefully placed
the bag into his lunch box. "Do you have any ideas about how to solve your problem?" Sam asked.
"I"m going to be mean and rude to her," Paul announced. "I"ll call her names and make ugly faces at
her."
"That"s how you treat everyone," Sam reminded his friend.
Paul nodded. "It"s time that Linda got to know the real Paul!"

first was that on this day my baby sister was married. She was twenty-six this day, and yet to me she
was still my baby sister. I suppose that I pictured her as a little girl, and treated her like one in order to
hold onto and preserve my own youth. Until I saw her in her wedding dress I still had a vision of her with
chubby little cheeks and long, dark-brown pigtails (马尾辫子) blowing in the wind, perhaps even a
permanent smudge of chocolate around her pink lips. I guess it"s true that you see only what you want to
see. Where did this beautiful woman with the glowing complexion (皮肤) and gentle curves (身体曲线)
come from?
I was happy that day, and also sad. Gone were the days of me bossing her around and telling her
what she should do with her life. My bossy behavior had earned me the nickname Lucy. If you are a
Peanuts fan then you can clearly imagine my behavior as an older sister. To me it wasn"t an insult; I rather
like the nickname Lucy. I happen to think that Lucy is strong and has incredible self-confidence, although
she is a little overbearing (专横的) at times. I did my best to live up to the standards set forth by this
dynamic cartoon character.
I left the reception to get some air because suddenly I was overcome with grief at the realization
that I was no longer a child. I went outside and walked to a nearby playground where there were
children playing on the slide, the swings and digging in the dirt. There was a little girl twirling around on a
bar, one knee wrapped tightly around the bar and fashioned behind her knee. It was all I could do to sit
there and just watch, for I too wanted to get on that bar with her and see if I could still hold the all-time
twirling record (ninety-nine times in fifth grade). Somewhere inside I knew that I would break my neck,
and I was wearing a bridesmaid dress. Not exactly playground material. And so I sat watching the
children play. I"m not sure how long I sat there before my sister came and joined me. We talked about
how we are grown up now and shed a few tears for our childhood days gone by. As she wiped a tear
from my eye she lovingly said, "you"ll always be Lucy to me." We hugged.
My cousin Mike walked over and told my sister that it was time to cut the cake. And then he
dropped bomb number two on me. "Hey, did you guys hear that Charles Schultz died today?" He said it
like it was no big deal. He took my sister"s arm and turned to head back for the reception hall.
"Coming?" They asked. "In a minute." I replied, and sat back down on the bench, dizzy from what he had
just told me.
Dead? How could Charles Schultz be dead? He was my creator! And though I have never met the
man personally, he has always been like an invisible father to me. He did, after all, fashion a famous
character after me. I lost so many things on this day. Innocence slipped away from me like a thief in the
night: come and gone before I could do anything about it, taking with it all the treasures that I held most
valuable in my heart. I felt myself grow up, all in one moment. Reality rushed in around me like a hurricane
tide. There was nowhere to run to. All I could do was sit there and watch it destroy and reshape what
had existed only a moment before. I was no longer a child. I was no longer Lucy who knew what was
best for everyone else. I saw, for the first time, what I really was—a thirty-year old woman with a
husband of my own, and soon, a child of my own.
I allowed the tide to carry my sadness out with it. Take it out to sea, for it serves no purpose in my
life. I stood up from the bench; a little taller than I was when I sat down. I turned and headed back to
the hall, hoping I didn"t miss the cutting of the cake. It was the day my sister grew wings of her own and
left the nest. It was the day that Lucy died, and I was born.

C. Because her sister always wore pigtails and liked eating chocolate.
D. Because the author didn"t want her sister to get married.

his portraits of leading figures of the American Revolution. He painted portraits of Franklin and Jefferson
and over a dozen of George Washington. His life-size portrait of his sons Raphaelle and Titian was so
realistic that George Washington reportedly once tipped his hat to the figures in the picture.
Charles Willson Peale gave up painting in his middle age and devoted his life to the Peale museum,
which he founded in Philadelphia. The world’s first popular museum of art and natural science mainly
covered paintings by Peale and his family as well as displays of animals in their natural settings. Peale
found the animals himself and found a method to make the exhibits more lifelike. The museum’s most
popular display was the skeleton (骷髅) of a huge, extinct elephant, which Peale unearthed on a New
York farm in 1801.
Three of Peale’s seventeen children were also famous artists. Paphaelle Peale often painted still lives
of flowers, fruit, and cheese. His brother Rembrandt studied under his father and painted portraits of
many noted people, including one of George Washington. Another brother, Rubens Peale, painted
mostly landscapes and portraits.
James Peale, the brother of Charles Willson Peale, specialized in miniatures (小画像). His daughter
Sarah Miriam Peale was probably the first professional female portrait painter in America.
B. Portraits in the 18th century.

fine until I pulled off the motorway and drove into the city, 12 the speed limit was only 50km/h.
My family seemed relieved (放心的) and 13 telling me what to do. They all looked out of the

well-paid job. But for 6,000 graduates at San Jose State this year, there"s uncertainty as they enter one
of the worst job markets in decades. Ryan Stewart has a freshly minted(新兴的) degree in religious
studies, but no job prospects.
"You look at everybody"s parents and neighbors, and they"re getting laid off and don"t have jobs,"
said Stewart. "Then you look at the young people just coming into the workforce... it"s just scary."
When the class of 2003 entered college, the future never looked brighter. But in the four years
they"ve been here, the world outside has changed dramatically.
"Those were the exciting times, lots of dot-com opportunities, exploding offers, students getting top
dollar with lots of benefits," said Cheryl Allmen-Vinnidge of the San Jose State Career Center. "Times
have changed. It"s a new market."
Cheryl Allmen-Vinnidge ought to know. She runs the San Jose State Career Center, sort of a
crossroads between college and the real world. Allmen-innidge says students who do find jobs after
college have done their homework.
"The typical graduate who does have a job offer started working on it two years ago. They"ve
postured(定位)themselves well during the summer. They"ve had several internships(实习)," she said.
And they"ve majored in one of the few fields that are still hot, like chemical engineering, accounting, or
nursing, where average starting salaries have actually increased over last year. Other popular fields (like
information systems management, computer science, and political science) have seen big declines in
starting salaries.
Ryan Stewart (he had hoped to become a teacher) may just end up going back to school. "I"d like
to teach college some day and that requires more schooling, which would be great in a bad economy,"
he said.
To some students, a degree may not be a ticket to instant wealth. For now, they can only hope its
value will increase over time.
B. jobs related to high-technology
C. a company making dots
D. teaching on the Internet
B. They have gone to summer school for further studies.
C. They are good students who have finished their homework on time.
D. They have found full-time jobs as their future career before graduation.
B. find jobs for students while they are in school
C. prepare students to find jobs after they graduate
D. help high school students get accepted to college
B. become a religious leader
C. get a job teaching
D. go back to school
B. A college degree doesn"t promise a person a high-paid job.
C. Most students with degrees will be able to find jobs.
D. The best way to get rich is to get a college degree.
