It’s only 4 hours flying time from Sydney, but a world away. What better place to rest than a country where the only place people hurry is on the football field and things are done in “Fiji time”?

Viti Levu—Great Fiji—is the largest island. Here you’ll find the capital Suva and the international airport at Nadi. Vatoa, on the other hand, is a tiny island in the farthest part of Fiji. Then there are 331 other islands, many of them with places to stay.

With less than a million people living on islands, you’ll never feel crowded. And with a climate(氣候)that changes only for five degrees between seasons, there’s never a bad time to come.

From cities to villages, from mountains to beaches, from water sports to wooden artworks, Fiji can give you more adventures and special experiences than you could find almost anywhere in the world.

　　Whenever you come, wherever you go, you’re sure to see some unforgettable events, from war dances to religious(宗教的)songs, from market days to religious days. It’s not just staged for tourists; it’s still a part of everyday life in Fiji. And any one of us can enjoy Fiji’s spirit by being part of the traditional(傳統(tǒng)的)sharing of yaqona—a drink made from the root of a Fiji plant.

So why not join us for the experience of a lifetime?

Any car accident is frightening, but an accident in which your vehicle is thrown into the water, with you trapped inside, is absolutely terrifying.__ 1.__ However, most deaths result from panic, without a plan or understanding what is happening to the car in the water.By adopting a brace(支撐) position, acting decisively and getting out fast，you can save yourself from a sinking vehicle.

Brace yourself for impact(撞擊力)．As soon as you're aware that you're going off the road and into a body of water，adopt a brace position.The impact could set off the airbag system in your vehicle，so you should place both hands on the steering wheel in the “ten and two” position.

Undo your seatbelt.__ 2._ Unbuckle the children，starting with the oldest first.Forget the cellphone call.Your car isn't going to wait for you to make the call.

__3._ Leave the door alone at this stage and concentrate on the window.A car's electrical system should work for up to three minutes in water，so try the method of opening it electronically first.Many people don't think about the window as an escape option either because of panic or misinformation about doors and sinking.

Break the window.If you aren't able to open the window，or it only opens halfway，you'll need to break it with an object or your foot.It may feel counter?intuitive(有悖常理的) to let water into the car.__ 4._

Escape when the car has equalized.If it has reached the dramatic stage where the car cabin has been filled with water and it has become balanced，you must move quickly and effectively to ensure your survival.__ 5.__ While there is still air in the car，take slow，deep breaths and focus on what you're doing.

A．Open the window as soon as you hit the water.

B．Surviving a sinking car is not as difficult as you think.

C．It takes 60 to 120 seconds for a car to fill up with water usually.

D．Such accidents are particularly dangerous to the risk of drowning.

E． In conclusion，if you know what to do in the water，you will be safe.

F．This is the first thing to attend to，yet it often gets forgotten in the panic.

G．But the sooner the window is open，the sooner you can escape directly through it.

Few of us haven’t read Cinderella, the story of a young woman living in poverty who meets the prince of her dreams. Some might not want to admit it, but there is a hidden Cinderella in everyone’s heart—we all wish we could achieve recognition or success after a period of obscurity(默默無聞)or neglect.

Mary Santiago has that secret dream, too. Her story is featured in Another Cinderella Story, a film set in a US high school.

Mary is shy but loves to dance. Compared with other girls, she is invisible. However, her world changes completely when a famous teenage pop singer, Joey Parker, appears.

Joey is everything the rest of the boys in her class are not—kind, handsome and desirable. Mary and Joey’s paths cross at a ball. They meet and fall in love with each other. But when Mary has to rush back home, she leaves behind her MP3 player, which becomes the only clue Joey has to find the girl of his dreams. Of course, there is a wicked(邪惡的)stepmother, who turns out to be Dominique Blatt and she takes in Mary after her dancer mother dies. Dominique treats Mary like a maid and does everything she can to make sure Mary doesn’t get into the top dance school. Her two daughters are equally determined to stop Joey falling for Mary, even if that means embarrassing her.

The story, though it mostly follows Cinderella, does add a few modern day twists to the classic fairy tale. Refreshingly, the film, unlike many high school films, does not focus on looks, although the actors are all beautiful.

“Avoid the rush hour” must be the slogan of large cities all over the world. Wherever you look, there are people, people, people. The trains which leave or arrive every few minutes are packed. The streets are so crowded; there is hardly room to move on the pavements. It takes ages for a bus to get to you because the traffic on the roads has almost come to a standstill. Even when a bus does at last arrive, it’s so full, and it can’t take any more passengers. The smallest unexpected event can bring about conditions of complete chaos. The strange thing is not that people stand these conditions, but that they actually choose them in preference to anything else.

Large modern cites are too big to control. People living there are forced by their environment to take a wholly unnatural way of life. They lost touch with the land and rhythm of nature. It is possible to live in such an air-conditioned existence in a large city that you can hardly tell the season. A few flowers in a public park may remind you that it is spring or summer. All the simple, good things of life like sunshine and fresh air are hard to find. Even the distinction between days and nights is lost.

The funny thing about it all is that you pay dearly to live in a city. The demand for accommodation is so great that it is often impossible for ordinary people to buy a house of their own. The cost of living is also very high. Just about everything you buy is likely to be more expensive than it would be in the country. Besides, the crime rate in most cities is very high. If you think about it, they’re not really fit to live in at all. Can anyone really doubt that the country is what man was born for and where he truly belongs?

1. According to the writer, 　　　.

A. there is a slogan in every large city all over the world

B. the rush hour traffic is terrible in large cities of the world

C. one should try to avoid the traffic wherever he is

D. rush hour exists in large cities but not in small ones

2. It is unusual that　　　.

A. people can stand the conditions in the city

B. people are used to living in a city

C. people know little about the problems of a city

D. people still choose to live in a city

3. City people can hardly tell the seasons because　　　.

A. there in no such thing as changes of seasons

B. seasons change only in public parks now

C. they live unnaturally without contact with nature

D. the temperature changes little between seasons

4.The reason for things to be more expensive in a city than elsewhere is that　　　.

A. city people have to pay higher to live in a city

B. there is a greater demand for things in a city

C. things are better in a city than elsewhere

D. people in a city are much more wealthy

5. What is the passage mainly about?

A. It’s crazy to choose to live in a large city.

B. City life can be very disagreeable.

C. Country life is better than city life.

D. Conditions of cities should be changed.

My dad was never the kind to offer many words of love or encouragement. But we knew he loved us. He just had his own way of showing it.

When I was a teen, we were seasonal campers(野營者)at a family campground almost an hour outside the city where we lived. Each family had their own campsite with water and electric, and you basically parked your camper there from May to October. Most “seasonals” visited them every weekend during those months, with the occasional week-long stay. There were plenty of other kids who camped seasonally each weekend, and they came to be some of my closest friends. Of course, many of them were boys.

We kids paired up(結(jié)對)with our little boyfriends or girlfriends, and we’d hold hands as we walked around the campground. We’d play ping-pong, have some snacks, and sing songs. Most weekends were pretty similar, but the couples would change. You’d see so-and-so with a different so-and-so than they were with the weekend before. You know how it is when you’re a teen—a three-week relationship is a really long time.

So, needless to say, my teen years were spent with quite a few different boys. But every single one of them had something in common. They’d all received the Evil Eye.

The Evil Eye was a magical sort of thing. One simple look from my dad, and the boy immediately knew not to mess with me. It was as if he could send his warnings through invisible laser(激光)beams that shot directly from his eyes to the boys’ brains.

“You will not put your hands on my daughter. You will not kiss my daughter. You will not even whisper sweet things into my daughter’s ear. ”

I remember one night in particular walking with a boy around the campground after dark. We came from one direction, and my dad from the other. The boy and my dad locked eyes for a brief second, then the boy dropped my hand like a hot potato and turned away, giving me a quick “See you later. ”

Yes, that’s the Evil Eye: best way ever to keep wandering teen boys’ hands away from your daughter.

1.The Evil Eye in the passage implies that　　　.

A. Dad gets angry easily

B. Dad’s eyes are evil

C. Dad’s eyes are ugly-looking

D. Dad’s eyes are protective to his daughter

2. The underlined words “mess with” in Paragraph 5 most probably mean“　　　”.

A. cause trouble for　　　B. make untidy

C. get married toD. talk to

3. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. As teenagers, we went camping every weekend.

B. We made lots of friends during the seasonal camping.

C. We had regular boyfriends or girlfriends and enjoyed ourselves.

D. The boy dropped my hand and turned away because he loved the Evil Eye.

4. It can be inferred from the passage that the author　　　.

A. is a teenage girl who loves her father

B. is a teenage boy who hates his father

C. is now an adult who has come to understand her father’s love

D. used to be a naughty boy who changed girlfriends now and then
