     Cosmo Books Ltd.,                                    14, Woodman Road,
     Hertford Estate,                                          Two Bridges,
     Rickmansworth,                                          West Sussex.
     Middx.
                                                                                                                  25th February
 Sir,
     Just over six months ago, I saw an advertisement in the Morning Mail for a set of the complete
works of William Shakespeare. Your company, Cosmo books Ltd., offered this set (eight books
of plays and two books of poetry) at what was claimed to be a ‘remarkable’ price: fifteen pounds
and fifty pence, including postage and packing. I had wanted a set of Shakespeare’s plays and poems
for some time, and these books, in red imitation leather, looked particularly attractive; so I sent for
them.
     Two weeks later, the books arrived, together with a set of the complete works of Charles Dickens
which I had not ordered. So I returned the Dickens books to you, with a cheque for fifteen pounds
and fifty pence for the works of Shakespeare. Two more weeks passed. Then there arrived on my
door step a second set of the works of Shakespeare, the same set of novels by Dickens and a six book
set of the plays of Moliere, in French. Since I do not read French, these were of no use to me at all.
However, I could not afford to post all these books back to you, so I wrote to you at the end of August
of last year, instructing you to come and collect all the books that I did not want, and asking you not to
send any other books until further notice.
     You did not reply to that letter. Instead you sent me a bill for forty two pounds , and a set of the
plays of Schiller, in German. Since then, a new set of books has arrived every two weeks, the works
of Goethe, the poems of Milton, the plays of Strindberg; I hardly know what I have. The books are
still all in their boxes, in the garage, and my car has to stand in the rain outside.
     I have no room for any more books, and even if I read from now until the Last Judgment, I should
not finish reading all the books that you have sent me.
     Please send no more books, send no more bills, send no more angry letters demanding payment.
Just send one large lorry and take all the books away, leaving me only with the one set of the complete
works of Shakespeare for which I have paid.
                                                                                                                                 Yours faithfully,
                                                                                                                             SIMON WALKER

     I can’t remember a winter being as cold as this in Pennsylvania, but I’m sure there were colder days.
     Even though the daylight hours are growing longer minute by minute, it’s easy to find an excuse not to go out unless you absolutely must, but then again I often have to push myself to accomplish things.
     People I speak to have been in all kinds of nasty moods. They say they’re “under the weather,” not feeling good about this time of year.
     As I stood outside with my two dogs yesterday, it was so cold that my nose and face felt frozen and my ears were stinging.
     Of course, that doesn’t matter to Ricky and Lucy. They have a routine they must go through to find just the fighting spot no matter how cold or hot it is.
     So I wait.
     But this time it was different. As cold as it was, I suddenly was excited thinking about how wonderful this extreme cold really was.
     Then the sun broke through the clouds and memories of summer’s extremely hot days flashed through my mind. I could remember standing in the heat of the afternoon, with sweat pouring down my brow and the hot, burning sun against my face. I reminded myself then and there that in the cold of the winter I would wish I had this heat.
     I was grateful for the extremes. Without the extremes in my life, I would never appreciate the days when things were just right. Without the extremes, life would be boring.
     It’s being pushed to one of the extremes that makes us appreciate the middle more. Health challenges remind us that we need to pay more attention to how we live. Financial extremes remind us that when things go smoothly it’s also time to save for raining days.
     I’ve come to the conclusion that all too often I find a reason not to be happy with where I am at that moment.
     Whether it’s hot or cold, good health or bad, in the money or out of it, I always want it to be different.
     I’m tired of being “Under the Weather!”
1. What is the author’s attitude towards the extremes in life?
A. Grateful.
B. Critical.
C. Negative.
D. Unconcerned.
2. That day the writer waited in the terrible cold because ______.
A. his dogs wanted to hunt
B. he wanted to face the cold bravely
C. his dogs had a routine
D. he wanted to be different
3. The underlined word “nasty” (Paragraph 4) can be replaced by ______.
A. unpleasant
B. violent
C. favorable  
D. unusual
4. At last the author drew a conclusion that ______.
A. happiness cannot be gained by complaints
B. things will be different whatever the situation is
C. happiness will fail to come to you if you can find a reason
D. he is disappointed with his present situation
5. What is the best title for this passage?
A. Follow the Routine
B. Two Extremes in Life
C. Changes should be Expected
D. Weather Information

     I credit my typing skill to so many hours of chatting online. Unfortunately, as my typing speed
increased on the Internet, all grammatical rules went out of the window. You see instant messages
have their own shorthand language and grammar isn"t important, of which even a newbie (新手) is
aware. They can leave out articles, subjects (主语), pronouns, etc. They can misspell or "respell"
almost any word. They often ask "A/S/L" when they first chat. Abbreviations (缩写) and capitalizations (大写) are particularly important. English-speaking instant messengers also refuse to burden themselves
with punctuation and capitalization.
     After I came back China, I discovered not one but two instant messaging crazes. The first, which
brought back memories of my previous addiction to the computer, was QQ. I can see evidence tha
t the Chinese have the same kind of separate instant messaging language, even when they chat in English. My first word in this language, for example, was "ft". This abbreviation for "faint" is used whenever
there is a need to express surprise. I also discovered that Chinese use the same kind of abbreviation
for a laugh. And there is an extraordinary number of smileys (表情符) to the "vomit" and "army soldier"
smileys. There is even a SARA smiley.
     After QQ, there is another, perhaps more widespread messaging trend. You guessed it-cell phone
text messaging. I now understand how useful text messaging is and why it is so common. I admit that
I have been guilty of sending text messages while walking outside or sitting on the subway. Who hasn"t ?
No matter where I go, I see people on their cell phones, messaging. In fact, it"s rare to see someone
actually talking on their phone!
     So it looks as if there is no escape from the instant messaging crazes, no matter where in the world
I go. And that"s plainly not going to change. In the end, though, I can"t complain: instant messaging is
quick, it"s cheap, it"s easy and it"s extremely fun too. And after all, everyone"s doing it.    
1. The underlined phrase "went out of the window" in Paragraph 1 probably means        .
A. increased  
B. occurred  
C. disappeared  
D. changed
2. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. Grammar and correct spelling are very important while chatting online. 
B. There are enough smileys and icons to express yourselves while chatting on line.
C. The writer is skilled at typing and once was addicted to online games.
D. It is impolite to leave out some unimportant words or letters while chatting online.
3. The writer believes that instant messaging is          .
A. full of fun but time-consuming  
B. widespread but unnecessary
C. quick but difficult to do  
D. common, used and cheap
4. Which might be the main idea of the passage?
A. Who can escape QQ and cell phone text messaging?  
B. Why is instant messaging so popular?
C. Chatting online is good for your typing skill.
D. Chatting on QQ is natural for people.
