I could not speak for fear of crying. “Roger, I want you to it.” Mother Henderson gave me back the little that I had given up for lost so long ago. She had kept it, never if she would see me again.
Today, I look at the table with bittersweet memories. I think of when Mother Winters forced me to throw it away. But I am also and joyful at the kindness of Mother Henderson, who kept it as a remembrance of a young orphan who tried very hard to .

核心考点
试题【When I was 8, a gentleman came to my orphanage(孤儿院) every week to lead us in woo】；主要考察你对题材分类等知识点的理解。[详细]
举一反三
First, let’s talk about culture. The difference between the mobile phone and its parent, the fixed-line phone, is that a mobile number corresponds to a person, while a landline goes to a place. If you call my mobile, you get me. If you call my fixed-line phone, you get whoever answers it.
This has several implications（含义）. The most common one, however, and perhaps the thing that has changed our culture forever, is the “meeting” influence. People no longer need to make firm plans about when and where to meet. Twenty years ago, a Friday night would need to be arranged in advance. You needed enough time to allow everyone to get from their place of work to the first meeting place. Now, however, a night out can be arranged on the run. It is no longer “see you there at 8”,but “text me around 8 and we’ll see where we all are.”
Texting changes people as well. In their paper, “Insights into the Social and Psychological Effects of SMS (Short Message Service) Text Messaging", two British researchers distinguished between two types of mobile phone users: the “talkers” and the “texters”－those who prefer voice to text messages and those who prefer text to voice.
They found that the mobile phone’s individuality and privacy gave texters the ability to express a whole new outer personality. Texters were likely to report that their family would be surprised if they were to read their texts. This suggests that texting allowed texters to present a self-image that differed from the one familiar to those who knew them well.
Another scientist wrote of the changes that mobiles have brought to body language. There are two kinds that people use while speaking on the phone. There is the “speakeasy”: the head is held high, in a self-confident way, chatting away. And there is the “spacemaker”: these people focus on themselves and keep out other people.
Who can blame them? Phone meetings get cancelled or reformed and camera- phones intrude（侵入）on people’s privacy. So, it is understandable if your mobile makes you nervous. But perhaps you needn’t worry so much. After all, it is good to talk.
小题1:The “meeting” influence of a mobile phone refers to the fact that ________.
| A．people can arrange their meeting place and time more flexibly |
| B．people have to make a firm plan about when and where to meet |
| C．people are able to meet someone at any place and any time |
| D．people have to attend phone meetings than ever before |
| A．talkers | B．the “speakeasy” | C．the “space maker” | D．texters |
| A．talkers | B．the “speakeasy” | C．the “spacemaker” | D．texters |

One ceremony that has become part of coming of age has been the senior prom (毕业舞会). The senior prom is an opportunity for youth to celebrate the entrance into the world of adulthood with color and formality. However, there is far more behind the social event than ever noticed.
What is formal? Formal means to present one’s self to others in a way which is “with form”, with shape, polite, inoffensive and organized. We see the example of a formal letter; it uses proper grammar and sentence structure in order to be respectful, while at the same time serving a purpose or getting an important message across.
In our society, what is formal? Very little. On average, clothing, language, behavior --- all is very informal. Individuals who are formal (polite, inoffensive, organized) in their daily dealings with people are often looked upon as boring. Yet in certain situations, individuals play with the concept of formality not truly to achieve respectfulness and order but because it becomes fashionable to do so. While a prom may seem, on the surface, like a fun opportunity to behave formally, it is actually a flowery version of Halloween.
On the occasion of the spring prom, we see flowering youth taking on the formalities of “adult”. Fine dress, careful makeup, luxury cars all become part of being an adult. But being “adult” isn’t that way.
In our society we have a wrong idea of what adulthood actually is. It has always been my understanding that adulthood and maturity (成熟) are not based upon one’s ability to hold a cigarette in a certain way or tie a bow tie. Adulthood comes with understanding of one’s place in the universe; it comes with the knowledge of how to interact with our fellow human beings; it comes with the ability to take responsibility for one’s own actions --- whether good or bad.
小题1:The “safe havens” (Paragraph 1) most probably refers to ______.
| A．families | B．high schools | C．mother countries | D．hometowns |
| A．show the importance of communication |
| B．discuss the purpose of a formal letter |
| C．explain what real “formal” is like |
| D．complain today’s letters are too formal |
| A．great fun | B．out of fashion | C．actually informal | D．beautifully decorated |
| A．put on heavy makeup | B．better get on with others |
| C．learn to smoke cigarettes | D．buy a luxury car or dress |

| A．work can bring joy to people |

| B．Julie was once attracted to artwork. |
| C．Julie has never been attacked publicly. |
| D．Julie was honest about her past experiences. |
Sleeping binge
Getting eight hours of shut-eye each night is generally recommended, but many people don’t. As the week rolls from Monday to Friday, they accumulate a sleep debt. Spending a few extra hours in bed on a Saturday morning, people assume, will help them “ catch up” on lost sleep. They’re likely right, “ Nobody knows how long the horizon is, probably a few nights, but studies show that recovery sleep in the short term does work,” says Dr. Winter, a member of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine.
Sleep banking
Recent data suggests that banking sleep in advance of a long night can actually offset (补偿) upcoming sleep deprivation(丧失). If you knew you were going to have to stay up all night on a particular day, for example, you could sleep for 10 hours a day for multiple days before the event, and be fine, Dr. Winter says. Just plan ahead.
Routine (惯例的)naps
A scheduled nap is healthier than catching up on or banking sleep. “ Because sleep extension can make you feel groggy (昏昏沉沉), I always recommend a short nap [if a person feels they need it ], at the same time, every day,” says Dr. Winter. He adds that 25 minutes is ideal. “ When you schedule a short nap, your body anticipates it and slows down, without falling into a deep dream sleep,” he says. That refreshing, scheduled break is better than an occasional weekend lie-in. “ The body likes routine,” he says, “ When it’s prepared, it works more efficiently.”
小题1:From Monday to Friday, many people _________.
| A．accumulate a sleep debt | B．have no time to sleep |
| C．work hard to achieve their goals | D．have to stay up all nights |
| A．a nap have no effect on work |
| B．a nap have effect on work |
| C．recovery sleep does work |
| D．recovery sleep doesn’t work |
| A．he keeps taking a nap for a week |
| B．he sleeps for 8 hours a day for days |
| C．he keeps sleeping for 2 days |
| D．he banks sleep in advance |
| A．Sleeping binge | B．Recovery sleep |
| C．Scheduled naps | D．Sleep extension |
| A．Sleep Matters | B．Disadvantage of Sleeping Binge |
| C．Advantage of Routine Naps | D．How to Sleep Well |
By the way, very few countries have a Father’s Day, though some have Children’s Day, or a special day for boys and another for girls. More and more countries are having Mother’s Day, so maybe Father’s Day will also become popular before too long. Now, what do people in North America do on Father’s Day? The newspapers, radios, and TV tell children what they should do－buy a Father’s Day present for your father. They even tell a wife to buy a Father’s Day present－not for her father but for her husband, even if he is not yet a father. And they tell grandchildren to buy a Father’s Day present for their grandfathers.
The important thing to remember about Father’s Day is that American children can show their love to their fathers in a more open way.

| A．there was a Mother’s Day | B．there was a Children’s Day |

| B．Father’s Day has a long history. |
| C．Father’s Day has become important in North America. |
| D．Maybe Father’s Day will become popular before too long. |
| A．go shopping with their fathers | B．help their fathers do something |
| C．show their love to their fathers | D．get money from their fathers |
| A．people to buy as many presents as possible |
