As a boy growing up in India, I had longed to travel abroad. I used to listen to the stories my father would tell me about his stay in Canada and tours to Europe in the 1970s, with great interest.

My big moment finally came in the summer of 1998 when I was able to accompany my parents to Europe, where my father was to attend a meeting. We planned to travel to Belgium, Netherlands and West Germany.

I have clear memories even today of going to Mumbai airport at night all excited about finally going abroad. I had heard several great things about Lufthansa till then but now I finally got to experience them first hand, during the flight to Frankfurt. We flew business class and even today I can remember the excellent service by the Lufthansa crew (工作人員). The flight was really smooth and thoroughly enjoyable, even for someone like me, who is especially afraid of flying.

After spending almost two weeks in Europe, we took the Lufthansa airport express from Dusseldorf to Frankfurt airport, for our return flight. What a journey that was! All along the Rhine (萊茵河), it was simply an unforgettable experience. I had a somber feeling on the flight back to Mumbai as it marked the end of a wonderful vacation, but the Lufthansa crew members were able to change it into a most enjoyable experience yet again, with the quality of their service.

Being the first airline to take me abroad, Lufthansa will always hold a special place in my heart. Even today,I continue to enjoy flights on Lufthansa and simply cannot dream of choosing any other airline. Flying, in general,for me,has always been a terrible and painful experience. Flying on Lufthansa,however, is something I always have and always will look forward to.

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.

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

2.According to the author we can broaden our knowledge by ________ .

A. composing B. imagining C. communicating D. reading

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

4.The underline word “erudite” in Paragraph 4 probably means “ _______”.

A. learned B. enthusiastic C. smart D. creative

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.

Dr. Sylvia Earle wants you to stop eating fish. It's not because fish are endangered, though wild fish stocks in many oceans are very low. It's not because they're bad for you, though fish in many areas are exposed to poisonous substances in the water. It’s because they're smart.
"Fish are sensitive, they have personalities," says the marine biologist. For Earle, eating a fish would be like eating a dog or a cat. "I would never eat anyone I know personally."
There's a lot more to fish than meets the eye: they talk to each other, they like to be touched, and they engage in behavior that can seem very human. They can remember things and learn from experience. Earle and a growing number of animal rights activists see these as strong arguments against eating fish altogether.
The activists also point out that fish feel pain and fish suffer horribly on their way from the sea to the supermarket. "While it may seem conspicuous that fish are able to feel pain, like every other animal, some people think of fish as swimming vegetables," says Dr. Lynne Sneddon. "Really, it's kind of a moral question. Is the enjoyment you get from fishing (or eating fish) more important than the pain of the fish?"
Fishermen and (fried) fish lovers are skeptical. "I've never seen a smart fish," says Marie Swaringen as she finishes off a plate of fish at a Seattle seafood restaurant. "If they were very smart, they wouldn't get caught."
"For years, everyone's been telling us to eat fish because it's so good for us," says another diner. "Now I've got to feel guilty while I'm eating my fish? What are they going to think of next? Don't eat salad because cucumbers have feelings?"

1.According to Dr. Sylvia Earle, he would stop eating fish as a result of the following reasons EXCEPT ___________ .

A. Fish are sensitive and have personalities

B. He knows fish very well

C. Fish are dangerous to eat because the water is polluted

D. Fish are clever

2.Dr. Lynne Sneddon describes the behavior of eating fish in a(n) _______ tone.

A. opposed B. optimistic C. indifferent D. supportive

3.Which word below can take the place of the underlined word “conspicuous” in Paragraph 4?

A. obvious B. easy C. impossible D. necessary

4.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that _____________ .

A. Human beings should stop eating fish

B. We would feel guilty if we continued eating fish

C. People eat fish because fish are delicious

D. Cucumber is a kind of vegetable or fruit

5.What was the author’s purpose when writing this passage?

A. To advise people to stop eating fish.

B. To introduce a topic of whether people should eat fish.

C. To advise people not to stop eating fish.

D. To tell us that fish will feel pain when caught and transported.
