Crying marriage? 1 (surprise), isn"t it?Actually, the custom of crying marriage existed a long time
ago in many areas of Southwest China"s Sichuan Province, and 2 (remain) in fashion 3 the end of
the Qing Dynasty.Though not so popular as before, the custom is still observed by people in many
places, especially Tujia people, who view it as a 4 (necessary) to marriage procedure.
It is very much 5 same in different places of the province.According to elderly people, every bride
had to cry at the wedding. 6 , the bride"s neighbors would look down upon 7 as a poorly cultivated
girl and she would become the laughingstock of the village.In fact, there were cases 8 which the bride
was beaten by her mother for not crying at the wedding ceremony.
In a word, crying at wedding is a 9 by custom to set off the happiness of the wedding through falsely sorrowful words.However, in the 10 (arrange) marriages of the old days of China, there were indeed

It all started when Graham Broad, a professor at the University of Western Ontario, fofund McKay"s
name in a footnote in a book about university history.McKay was included in a list of university alumni
(校友) who had served during the First World War, but his name was unfamiliar to Broad, a specialist
in military history.Out of curiosity, Broad spent hours at the local archives(档案馆)in a fruitless search
for information on McKay.Tired and discouraged, he finally gave up.On his way out, Broad"s glance
happened to fall on an exhibiting case showing some old newspapers.His eye was drawn to an old
picture of a young man in a rugby uniform.As he read the words beside the picture, he experienced a
thrilling realization."After looking for him all day, there he was, staring up at me out of the exhibiting case,
"said Broad.Excited by the find"Broad asked his students to continue his search.They combed old
newspapers and other materials for clues.Gradually, a picture came into view.
Captain Alfred Edwin McKay joined the British Royal Flying Corps in 1916.He downed ten enemy
planes, outlived his entire squadron(中队)as a WWI flyer, spent some time as a flying instructor in
England, and then returned to the front, where he was eventually shot down over Belgium and killed in
December 1917.But there"s more to his story."For a brief time in 1916 he was probably the most
famous pilot in the world, "says Broad."He was credited with downing Oswald Boelcke, the most
famous German pilot at the time."Yet, in a letter home, McKay refused to take credit, saying that
Boelcke had actually crashed into another German plane.
McKay"s war records were destroyed during a World War ? air bombing on London-an explanation
for why he was all but forgotten.
But now, thanks to the efforts of Broad and his students, a marker in McKay"s memory was placed
on the university grounds in November 2007."I found my eyes filling with tears as I read the word "
deceased" (阵亡) next to his name, "said Corey Everrett, a student who found a picture of Mckay in
his uniform."This was such a simple example of the fact that he had been a student just like us, but instead of finishing his time at Western, he chose to fight and die for his country."

The money values we learn as children stay with us the rest of our lives. If you are a parent, teaching
your children the value of saving and investing will benefit them the rest of their lives. Here"s what you can
do:Help your child begin to save. Open savings accounts for your children, and teach them how the bank
adds interest to their savings that makes their money grow. Encourage your children to save a little from
every bit of money they receive, such as allowances, birthday gifts, etc. You may even want to set up a
matching program, contributing fifty cents for each dollar your child saves.
Teach your child about stocks (股票). A child in elementary school can start learning about how
businesses work. Once your child understands the basics, ask him or her to think about some of the
businesses that might be good stock investments. Then use Morningstar Mutual Fund Guide(available
at your library)to find a quality mutual fund that holds some of these companies, or a mutual fund that
caters to children such as the Stein Roe Young Investor Fund. Many funds accept regular monthly
investments as low as $50 a month, so these funds can be a good way to teach children about the stock
market while saving for their college education.
Encourage early IRA(个人退休金账户)saving. The new Roth IRA is a great way for children who
are working in summers or after school to begin saving for their future. Imagine how much money you"d
have today if you had saved $3,000 a year since you were a teenager!
Let your kids handle their own money. We all learn by doing, so letting your kids manage a segment
of their budget(预算)will let them earn valuable financial lessons.They may make mistakes, but they will
be small mistakes that may help them avoid larger mistakes as adults.
B.How to Teach Your Children to Save
C.Tips for Saving for Children
D.Start Good Saving Habits Early
B.that you should provide enough money for children so that they can save some
C.that you encourage your children to compete with each other in saving
D.that you encourage your children by giving some extra money for them to save
B.in primary school
C.in middle school
D.in college
B.It accepts regular monthly investments.
C.It accepts small investments as low as $50 a month.
D.It caters to children who can afford small investments.
reconnecting old friends.Last week,a guy whom I hadn"t seen since my bachelor party five years ago sent me a friend request.I accepted and waited for "Easy E" to send me a greeting of some kind.He had sought me out,after all.
I learned from his profile that he was in a relationship and had a son.However,I"m pretty sure we won"t ever write walltowall,let alone email each other.But he"ll remain a friend of online until one of us makes a
point of removing the other from his official list.
My pool of friends consists of family members,college buddies,coworkers from past and present,and
friends of friends.There are 35 in all.If I spent some time uploading old email addresses,I"m confident that
I could increase my friend count actually.
A person could make a mission out of reconnecting with childhood friends,former classmates,distant
cousins, and those one would like to get to know better.And some people can even handle hundreds of
onscreen relationships,keeping up with the daily happenings of their small army of companions.After all,
there are worse fates than having too many friends.
Thanks to email,the inability to schedule facetoface meetings no longer means a friendship must come
to a close. But even with email, people will lose touch if one or both parties stop writing back. That"s
normal.People move from school to school,job to job,city to city.You never have to feel guilty for breaking away.Every day,the masterminds of Web 2.0 find new ways of making human communication easier.However,convenience can be a crutch(拐杖) Some things shouldn"t be simplified.When it comes to friendship,
there can be no shortcuts.
B.it helps people get in touch with old friends
C.it can send people a greeting of some kind
D.it reminds people of events in the past
B.asked the friend to email him
C.did get some information about the friend
D.would keep in touch with the friend forever
B.The author communicates with all the 35 friends by emails.
C.The list of 35 friends doesn"t include the old email addresses.
D.It is not difficult for the author to increase his friend count.
B.Taking a crutch is a new way of making friends online.
C.Convenience is dangerous for human communication.
D.Convenience is not really good for human communication.
and tests passed.
In China, although teenagers can get their ID cards at 16, many only see themselves as an adult
when they are 18. In the US, where everyone drives, the main step to the freedom of adult life is
learning to drive. At 16, American teens take their driving test. When they have their license, they drive
into the grownup world.
"Nobody wants to ride the cheese bus to school," said Eleanor Fulham, 17. She brought the
pressure back to memory, especially for kids from wealthier families. "It"s like you"re not cool if you
don"t have a car," she said.
According to recent research, 41% of 16 to 19yearolds in the US own cars, up from 23% in 1985.
Although, most of these cars are bought by parents, some teens get parttime jobs to help pay.
Not all families can afford cars for their children. In cities with subways and limited parking, some
teenagers don"t want them. But in rich suburban areas without subways, and where bicycles are more
for fun than transportation, it is strange for a teenager not to have a car.
But police say 16yearolds have almost three times more accidents than 18 to 19yearolds. This has
made many parents pause before letting their kids drive.
Julie Sussman, of Virginia, decided that her son Chad, 15, will wait until he is 17 to apply for his
learner"s permit.
Chad said he has accepted his parents" decision, although it has caused some teasing from his
friends. "They say that I am unlucky," he said, "But I"d rather be alive than driving, and I don"t really
trust my friends on the road, either."
In China as more families get cars, more 18yearolds learn to drive. Will this become a big step to
becoming an adult?
B. Driving into the GrownUp World
C. Teenagers" Driving in America
D. Recognized Point of Becoming an Adult
B. they are never experienced drivers
C. older people always drive better
D. they never drive carefully on the road
B. Whether the kid is old enough.
C. What traffic condition there is around.
D. Whether it"s practically needed.
