     Mr and Mrs Brown had always spent their summer holidays in New Jersey(新泽西)in the past, staying in a small inn(旅店)at the foot of a hill.
     One year, however, Mr Brown made a lot of money in his business, so they decided to go to London
and stay at a really good hotel while they went touring around that famous city.
     They flew to London and arrived at their hotel late one evening. They had expected that they would
have to go to bed hungry, because in that small inn in New Jersey, no meals were served after seven. They were surprised when the waiter asked whether they would take dinner there that night. “Are you still
serving dinner?” asked Mr Brown. “Yes, certainly sir,” answered the waiter. “We serve it until half past
nine.”
   "What are the times of meals then?” asked Mr Brown. “Well, sir,” answered the waiter, “we serve breakfast from seven to half past eleven in the morning, lunch from twelve to three in the afternoon, tea from four to five, and dinner from six to half past nine.”

     One day, I happened to meet an Englishman in the street and soon we began to talk. As I was talking
about how I was studying English, the foreigner seemed to be very surprised, gently shaking his head and
saying, "You don"t say! You don"t say!" I was puzzled (困惑的), and I thought, "Perhaps this is not a right thing to talk about." So I said to him, "Well, shall we talk about the Great Wall? Have you ever been
there?"
      "Certainly, everyone back home will laugh at me if I leave here without seeing it. The Great Wall is
"wonderful!" "Yes, it is one of the wonders in the world. And people of many countries have come to visit
it." As I went on telling him more about it, he stopped me again, "You don"t say!"
      I couldn"t help asking, "Why do you ask me not to talk about it?"
      "Well, I didn"t ask you to do so," he answered, greatly surprised.
      "Didn"t you say "You don"t say!" ?" I asked again.                           
       Hearing this, the foreigner laughed loudly. He began to explain, " "You don"t say!" means "Really?" .

        A four-year-old girl is lying in the arms of a doctor. She has just lost her mother. Her pink clothes
are full of blood and her eyes look at something only she can see.
        Every day we see pictures like this on our televisions. We see Iraqi(伊拉克的)children begging
for food and water from American and British soldiers as they move through towns and cities towards
the capital, Baghdad (巴格达). We see these children following parents, carrying bags of almost the
same size as their small bodies as they escape from their homes in Baghdad. 
       They show just some of the young lives that have been turned upside down by ongoing war and
the terrible price paid by Iraqi children.
      “Dad, why are the Americans fighting against us? Are we going to be killed?”asks the son of Abu
Singar, an Iraqi engineer. Abu finds it hard to explain this war to his eight-year-old son. 
        He tries to make him feel safe by saying, “The bombs(炸弹)are far away from us. The Americans
are fighting the soldiers. We"re going to be all right.” Even though Abu knows it isn"t always true, little
else can be done. In Baghdad, parents give their children sleeping pills to try and let them escape from
the sound of bombs. And all the schools are closed.
        Now things are worse, and the ongoing war makes it impossible to count the number who are
hungry, sick, hurt or even dead.1. What happens to the children in Iraq because of the war? A. The children will get better than before.
B. The children beg for food and water from American and British soldiers.
C. The children in Iraq go away from their homes in Baghdad.

     Mr. Black worked in a factory of a small town. He had been there for about twenty years before
one day he was sent to the capital for important business. He was very happy because he had never
been there before. When he started, he asked his wife and daughters if they wanted him to buy
something for them in London. Mrs. Black began to think it over and then she said she wished her
husband would be able to buy a nice umbrella (伞) for her, and so did their three daughters. As he
was afraid he would forget it, he drew an umbrella on his hand. When he reached the station, he
found his hands were dirty. He washed them and the drawing was gone.
     On the train Mr. Black sat opposite to an old woman. The woman"s umbrella was so nice that

train arrived at the station in London, he said goodbye to the old woman, took his bag and her
umbrella and was going to get off.
     "Wait a minute, sir," shouted the old woman. "That"s my umbrella!"
