Yesterday, I met a delightful woman at a work event. As we talked, she told me about her in Manila, Philippines. She spoke about the her culture values their elders,and she explained that children are from the time of birth to respect and people older than themselves.
It was to hear that,so I enjoyed listening and learning. Here is her memory I found so beautiful:
When she was growing up, her father had three jobs to his family. She said her dad never , and though he worked very hard, he always had for them. One day, her father was at his full-time job. For several months, he was mailed temporary disability checks he was recovering.
When her father was able to return to his full-time job, he took all those disability that were sent to him while he was recovering and handed them back to the . He told them that he had two good legs and arms, and did not need this money. He told them to give the money to people who could not work, to people who needed it.
The woman telling the story was a little girl at that time. She had her father that very day when he went back to his company all those unopened checks. "My father is my hero," she . Lowering her voice, she said she would never forget what he did, and what an and influential mentor(导师) he was on how to live a life.
From my communication with her, it was that her father"s same sweet spirit had been to this woman, and to her family. Hearing this story was so refreshing to my soul. I hope it is for you too.

举一反三
Having a great collection of books at home doesn’t really mean that you are a person who has a passion for literature and reading． It can be a family inheritance or it can be just to impress people around you by the fact that you are a person of culture． On the other hand, there are many persons who cannot afford to buy books, because some of them are quite expensive, but who usually go to libraries and spend hours reading something that interests them a lot, or just borrow books to home．
From my point of view, literature is very important in our life． For example, reading is a means of gaining culture and enriching our knowledge in different areas． It can help us have a great imagination and it makes things easier when it comes to make compositions on different themes． It gives you the possibility to speak about science, even if you don’t work in this domain, or you can express your opinion about a political aspect, just because you have read something connected to that．
Secondly, literature offers us the possibility to enter the world of imagination, and to leave the real one for a couple of hours． We come to meet kings and queens many years ago, dream of being in the world of the rich or imagine how life will be in the future． Sometimes, we identify ourselves with the characters in the stories we read and they can give us some clues to solve our problems and how to react in certain circumstances．
In conclusion, I would like to say that literature is the perfect means to enrich our culture, to express ourselves correctly, to have a rich vocabulary, to be able to interfere in conversations in different fields of interest and to really be considered an erudite person．
小题1:People who are fond of literature are those that ________ ．| A．have much interest in reading | | B．keep many books | | C．go to libraries every day | | D．buy expensive books in the bookstore |
小题2:According to the author we can broaden our knowledge by ________ ．| A．composing | B．imagining | C．communicating | D．reading |
小题3:We can know from the third paragraph that ___________ ．| A．we can bring kings and queens back to life | | B．it is very good for us to stay alone for some hours | | C．what we read can be useful in our daily life | | D．we can make friends with people in the stories |
小题4:The underline word “erudite” in Paragraph 4 probably means “ _______”．| A．learned | B．enthusiastic | C．smart | D．creative |
小题5:What is the author’s purpose by writing the passage?| A．To share his own reading experience． | | B．To distinguish the true readers． | | C．To attract people to literature． | | D．To stress the importance of imagination． |

We are just getting older and older with each New Year. Vigor and wisdom are draining, and bit by bit we are moving away from the amazement of youth.
Yet neither fear nor anxiety helps retain youth. Instead, a few living habits help maintain.
●Laugh to your heart"s content as much as you can. Laughter helps reduce pressure and improve your immune system, which makes people look 8 years younger.
●Keep an eye on your blood pressure. Those with a blood pressure of 115/75mmHg look 2.5years younger than those above 160/90mmHg.
●Quit smoking and avoid passive smoking. This can take 8 years off your appearance.
●Spare some time for exercises each day. Exercises need not be tiring. A 20 minute walk every day makes people look 5 years younger.
●Keep learning and absorb something new each day. Speak the same language as the young people. Learning something every day makes people look 2.5 years younger.
●Keep other pressures under control. Too much pressure makes people look 30 years older. If they are good at networking and manage to keep pressure under control, they will look 30 years younger.
●Secure high quality medical care insurance and do whole body check regularly. For those contracted with chronicle diseases, proper treatment and qualification of the diseases makes people look 12 years younger than what they would without proper treatment.

When you’re returning to Australia, be careful that you don’t bring in pests and diseases. Some items you might bring back from overseas can be pests and diseases that Australia doesn’t have. When you return, declare(申报)all food, meat, fruits, plants, seeds, wooden souvenirs, animal or plant materials.
Australia has strict quarantine(检疫)laws and tough on-the-spot fines. Every piece of luggage is now screened or X-rayed. If you fail to declare any quarantine items, or if you make a false declaration, you will get caught. In addition to on-the-spot fines, you could be accused and fined more than $60, 000 and you may risk 10 years in prison. All international mail is also screened.
Some products may require treatment to make them safe. Items that are restricted because of the risk of pests and diseases will be seized and destroyed by the Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service(AQIS).
In many cases, the goods you declare will be returned to you after inspection. However, any item that presents a quarantine risk will be withheld(扣留). You will be given a range of options for each item depending on the quarantine risk:
Treating the item to make it safe;
Holding the item until an import permit is presented*; ·
Re-exporting the item；
Destroying the item.
Those treatments with the sign “*” are subject to fees.
Further information:
For more detailed information about bringing in food, animals, plants, animal or plant materials, call the AQIS at 1800-020-504.

Everybody is afraid of something.That’s what more than 1,700 kids told us when we asked them about fears and scary stuff.We gave kids a list of 14 scary things and asked which one frightened them most.Here are the top 5 answers from our survey (调查)：① Scary movies and TV shows；②Scary dreams；③Thunderstorms，hurricanes(飓风)；and other horrible weather；④War and terrorism (恐怖行动)；⑤Sounds heard at night.
But not everyone is afraid of the same thing.And what makes one person scared can be of no big deal for someone else.Plenty of kids said their biggest fear wasn’t on our list.
What is fear?
Fear is a feeling that eyeryone has—it’s programmed into all of us—and that’s a good thing because fear is there to protect us.We’re born with a sense of fear so we can react to something that could be dangerous.The baby cries，and their mom comes over to comfort him or her，helping the baby feel safe and OK again.Real vs.Pretend
The best way to get over a fear is to get more information about it.As kids get older，they understand more and start seeing the difference between what is real and unreal.So when William’s imagination leads him to think of witches，he can tell himself，“Wait a minute.They’re only pretend things.I don’t need to worry about them.”
The same goes for the dark.A kid’s imagination can start playing tricks when the lights go out.What’s under my bed？Is that a thief I hear？With the help of a parent，kids can get more comfortable in the dark.Using a nightlight or shining a flashlight under the bed to see that there’s nothing there can help kids fight that fear.
小题1:What did the writer find out from the survey?| A．Some people have never experienced fear. | | B．Kids don’t like watching scary movies. | | C．All people are afraid of something. | | D．People often cry loudly when they are scared. |
小题2:What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?| A．The list of fears is not complete. | | B．The things people fear are of no big deal. | | C．Kids have more fears than people think. | | D．People are afraid of different things. |
小题3:In the writer’s opinion，________.| A．having a sense of fear is not a bad thing | | B．babies have a weak sense of fear | | C．fear is not something that we are born with | | D．not all people can react to dangerous things |
