There was a rich foreign merchant who had 4 wives. He loved the 4th wife most and 36 her with best clothes and 37 her to delicious food.
He also loved the 3rd wife very much. He’s very proud of her and always wanted to 38 his 3rd wife to his friends.
He too, loved his 2nd wife. 39 the merchant faced some 40 , he always turned to his 2nd wife and she would always help him out.
Now, the merchant’s first wife had made great 41 to his business. However, the merchant did not love her and although she loved him deeply, he hardly took notice of her.
One day, the merchant fell ill. He knew that he was going to die 42 . He told himself, “ Now I have 4 wives with me. 43 when I die, I’ll be alone. How 44 I’ll be!”
Thus, he asked the 4th wife, “ I 45 you most. Now that I’m dying will you 46 me and keep me company?” “No way!” replied the 4th wife and she walked away without another word.
The 47 merchant then asked the 3rd wife, “ I have loved you so much for all my life. Will you follow me and keep me company?” “ 48 !” replied the 3rd wife. “ Life is so good over here! I’m going to 49 when you die!”
He then asked the 2nd wife, “ I 50 turned to you for help. Now I need your help again. Will you follow me and keep me company?” “I’m sorry, I can’t 51 you out this time!” replied the 2nd wife.
Then a 52 pulled out, “ I’ll leave with you. I’ll follow you no matter 53 you go.” Broken-hearted, the merchant said, “ I should have taken much better 54 of you while I could have.”
Actually, we all have 4 wives in our life: our body, our possessions, our friends, and our 55 . We should take good care of our soul all our life.

Can you understand the beginning of this essay(短文)?
“My smmr hols wr CWOT. B4, we usd 2go2 NY 2C my bro, his GF & 3 kds FTF.”
The Scottish teacher who received it in class had no idea what the girl who wrote it meant. The essay was written in a form of English used in cell phone text messages(短信). Text messages (also called SMS) through cell phones became very popular in the late 1990s. At first, mobile phone companies thought that text messaging would be a good way to send messages to customers, but customers quickly began to use the text messaging service to send messages to each other. Teenagers in particular enjoyed using text messaging, and they began to create a new language for messages called “texting.”
A text message is limited to 160 characters, including letters, spaces, and numbers, so messages must be kept short. In addition, typing on the small keypad of a cell phone is difficult, so it"s common to make words shorter. In texting, a single letter or number can represent(代表) a word, like “r” for “are,” “u” for “you,” and “2” for “to.” Several letters can also represent a phrase, like “lol” for “laughing out loud.” Another characteristic(特征) of texting is the leaving out of letters in a word, like spelling “please” as “pls.”
Some parents and teachers worry that texting will make children bad spellers and bad writers. The student who wrote the essay at the top of this page said writing that way was more comfortable for her. (The essay said, “My summer holidays were a complete waste of time. Before, we used to go to New York to see my brother, his girlfriend, and their three kids face to face.”)
Not everyone agrees that texting is a bad thing. Some experts say languages always develop, and this is just another way in which English is changing. Other people believe texting will disappear soon. New technology for voice messages may soon make text messages a thing of the past.
1. What is the writer"s opinion of text messaging?
A. The writer does not give his opinions.
B. It is not bad for children.
C. It will make children bad writers.
D. It is fun and easy to do.
2. Which characteristic of texting is NOT described in the passage?
A. Using letters to represent words.
B. Using phrases to represent essays.
C. Using letters to represent phrases.
D. Using numbers to represent words.
3. Which of the following was most probably the title of the student"s essay?
A. My Smmr Hols B. CU in LA C. My GF D. My Gr8 Tchr
4. Why do some people think that texting is bad?
A. It costs too much. B. It"s too difficult to type.
C. Teenagers won"t learn to write correctly. D. It"s not comfortable.
5. Why aren"t some people worried about the effect of texting?
A. Not many people use texting.
B. Spelling in English is too difficult.
C. Teenagers quickly become bored with texting.
D. Texting will disappear because of new technology.
I worked as a waitress for a few months. I was not a great waitress and I worked in a restaurant that served mostly older people who, however, have not learned that ten percent of their expense is no longer a tip that waitresses can live on – let alone a college student working hard for 20 hours a week!
One night, when I was still working two hours after shift(轮班) was supposed to finish, all that I wanted was for my last table to clear out so I could clean and go home. My last customer caught me on her way out and asked if I had change for a twenty. I dug through my pocket and turned out my night’s earnings—a small amount of $14.
She smiled at me and said, “That is enough.”
My eyes were full of tears as I made the uneven(不等价的) exchange. “Thank you, ”I said in a low voice.
I heard her little boy ask why she did that and she explained that I’d had a hard night and she just wanted to help me out. I even heard her words, “Reach out your hands when somebody needs help.” I noticed the little boy nodded his head. Not only did her kindness touch my hurried and tiring life, but she also taught her son an important lesson that night.
I do not know her name, but I will always remember her.
1. According to the passage, at that time the author was ___________.
A. a full-time worker B. still a college student
C. a school-leaver D. a secretary in a big company
2. Why did the woman want an uneven exchange?
A. She was to thank the author for her service.
B. She was in great need of change to buy a gift for her son
C. She was only to teacher her son a lesson.
D. She only wanted to give a hand to the author.
3. What was the woman’s son’s attitude to what she did at last?
A. Unbelievable. B. Acceptable.
C. Disappointed. D. Amazed.
4. What did the woman probably teach her son?
A. To live a hard life.
B. To give a waitress a more than 10% tip.
C. To show kindness to those who need help.
D. To make an uneven change.

I had a very special teacher many years ago whose husband died suddenly of a heart attack. About a week after his 36 , she shared her insights(顿悟) with the students. When the class was nearly over, she 37 and said, “I would like to 38 with all of you a thought that has 39 to do with class, but which I feel is very 40 .
“Each of us is put here on the 41 to learn, share, love and appreciate ourselves. None of us knows when this 42 will end. At any moment it can be 43 . Perhaps this is life’s way of telling us that we must make good 44 of every day.” Her eyes beginning to 45 ,she went on saying, “So I would like you all to 46 me. From now on, on your way home, find something 47 to notice. It doesn’t have to be something you see- it could be scent(香味) of fresh bread, or it could be the 48 of the wind slightly rustling(发出沙沙声) the leaves.”
“Please look for these things, and 49 them. The little things we are put here on the earth to enjoy. They are 50 observing , for at any time they can all be taken away.”
The class was totally quiet. We all picked up our books and went out of the room 51 . That afternoon, on my way home I noticed 52 things than before. Every time I think of that teacher and remember what a(n) 53 she made on all of us, I try to 54 all of those things that sometimes we all ignore. For as we get older, it is not the things we did that we often regret, 55 the things we didn’t do.

Say you meet with difficulty, what’s the first thing you do? Call your best friend and ask for help? It turns out that doing this may be better for you than you think. Researchers find that friendship has a big influence on your health, well-being and business.
One study from scientists recently found that older people with a large circle of friends were 22% less likely to die during a 10-year period than those with fewer friends. Other researchers discovered that having a strong social network could improve brain health as we age.
Even more interesting, feeling close to your friends may give you a different view on things. Researchers gathered 34 college students out side and asked them to estimate the steepness(估计陡峭程度) of a hill after climbing it. Those standing with friends gave lower estimates, and the longer the friends had known each other, the less steep the hill appeared.
What is the reason that friends can make obstacles seem less difficult? “People with stronger friendship networks feel that there is someone they can turn to,” said Karen A. Roberto, director of the center of the hospital at Virginia Tech. “Friendship is a valued resource (宝贵的资源).”
It is truly the fact. Friends make your life better. They provide support in hard times. They inspire you to make changes in your life, encourage you to set goals and cheer you on every step of the way until you reach them.
Want to find out more about the power of friendship? Read “Be a Better Friend”, “Make New Friends” and “Keep the Old”.
