Yesterday I went to the nursing home to visit my grandma. She just got out of the hospital recently where she had some serious operations. I wanted to surprise her after work, so I stopped by for a quick visit. When I got there, she was happy to see me. We hugged, kissed and exchanged greetings. Then I heard a woman crying. It was my grandma’s roommate. The curtain was drawn so I could not see her. She started calling out a name that wasn’t mine but she was certainly talking to me, begging me to go to her side of the room. I ignored her at first and continued visiting with my grandma. Then she started begging and saying, “Please, come to see me!” So I went to see her. When I drew the curtain back, she looked so old but flashed me the biggest smile! She opened her arms wide for me to hug her so I bent low and gave her a hug. I sat on her bed and talked with her for a few minutes. She kept calling me by the other name but I did not correct her. She told me stories as if I had been there when they happened. Finally I went back to visit with my grandma. Then the woman started crying again, saying, “Please, come back.” She finally slept. I stopped by the nurse’s station and the nurse told me that the lady suffers from Alzheimer’s. I mentioned the name she had called me. The nurse told me it was the lady’s daughter’s name. Then I understood why she wanted me to go to visit her. We will all get old some day. Some of us will have broken minds like he lady and some of us will have broken bodies like my grandma.

举一反三
Recently the “China dream” has been the subject of a public topic. Although it is quite common for Chinese people to dream of an empowered or a prosperous(繁荣) China, most people also have their own dreams. Throughout China’s thousands of years of history, these “China dreams” have always existed. Do you have a “China dream”? I brought up this topic with several young Chinese students with higher U.S. educational backgrounds. Unsurprisingly, they all had their own heartfelt hopes and dreams for their native country.
Fred Wang, an MBA candidate in the U.S. said, “I dream of equal chance for the young in China. Equality means all young people can compete fairly, based on the rule-of-law no matter whether they are rich or poor.” Yujie Zhao, another MBA candidate in California said, “I dream of a happy family with an affordable home. I dream of having the best education for my children so they will not lose at the starting line, and I dream of being able to take good care of my parents after they retire(退休).” She said, “It seems like all my dreams are about family, but it is so true for most Chinese young dreamers today.” Yiqiong Zhang, an MBA graduate from the US shared her dreams. “I have a dream which I have been holding for many years, that is after working hard for about 20 to 25 years, I can have enough money to build and manage a small bookstore or a flower shop. Besides working hard, I am able to enjoy life: to play the piano, to hike and to enjoy a two-month-long vacation every year. This may be a common dream among young Chinese students.” There is no doubt that all of these young students have their own “China dream”. They all love China, they all love chasing their dreams. Beautiful “China Dream” requires hard work. Everyone should work hard to make their dream come true. 小题1:Which is right about the three young Chinese students?A.They receive higher education in China. | B.They have their own hopes and dreams for China. | C.They receive education of all levels in America. | D.They have their own hopes and dreams for America. | 小题2:What does the word “compete” in the second paragraph mean? 小题3:Yujie Zhao hopes that ___________.A.all young people can have equal opportunities | B.she can have a happy family with a big house | C.her children can receive the best education in America | D.she can look after her parents well when they are old | 小题4:Which one is NOT Yiqiong Zhang’s dream?A.Working hard for about 20 to 25 years. | B.Managing a small bookstore or a flower shop. | C.Playing the piano and hiking in her free time. | D.Having a two-month holiday every year. | 小题5:From the passage we can learn that ____________.A.“China Dream” is very difficult to come true. | B.“China Dream” does need everyone’s hard work. | C.“China Dream” is a subject we need to study in China. | D.“China Dream” is only a dream about the development of our country. |

An had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me, and it would mean a great deal to him. I agreed. He was Matthew. he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to see five, then they were told would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal weight lifter. I spent over an hour talking to Matthew. He spoke about and succeeding and seeking(追寻)his dreams. When we finished talking, I went to my and pulled out the first gold medal I won and put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about and overcoming obstacles(克服障碍)than I ever would. He looked at it for a while, then took it off and handed it to me. He said, “You are a champion. You earned that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.” Last summer I got the news that Matthew had and a letter Matthew had written to me a few days before: Dear Rick, My mom said I should send you a thank-you letter. The doctors are to tell me that I don"t have long to live any more. But I still smile as much as I can. I told you that in the future I was going to the Olympics and win a gold medal. But I know now I"ll . I know I"m a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you. Thank you for loving me.

Science fiction is a popular kind of writing, and many people think of Jules Verne as the father of science fiction. He was born in France in 1828. His father wanted him to become a lawyer(律师), but when he was about twenty years old, Verne decided to become a writer. At first he wrote plays for the theater. Then, in 1863, he wrote a story called Five Weeks in a Balloon. The success of this book encouraged him to write more stories such as A Journey to the Center of the Earth(1864) and From the Earth to the Moon(1865). In the 19th century, many people were interested in science and inventions. Jules Verne wrote about scientific subjects in his stories and, as a result, they were very popular. Verne’s writing included many predictions(预言) for the 20th century and many of them came true. He described space flight, movies, and air conditioning, a long time before they appeared. These books were very successful and they made Verne rich. Jules Verne’s books have been the subjects for many movies. 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea was a successful movie for Walt Disney. It was the first Disney movie to use real actors instead of cartoon drawings. Around the World in Eighty Days is another famous movie based on one of Verne’s books.
