When I was 11, I threw a glance into Dad’s lunch box and made the unexpected discovery that my mother still showed her love towards my father. The evidence, a napkin resting on top of the sandwiches packed in wax paper, was certain “Love you!” she had written on the napkin. “Meat loaf for supper!”

Mom penned all kinds of messages to Dad on those paper napkins, and he saved a whole pile of them. What embarrassed me as a kid has become a precious memory of my parents.

It also started my own brand of lunch box notes. When my kids were young, I’d glue little drawings on their lunches. Lots of sketches (素描) of our dog, Max, along with smiling flowers. When they were teenagers, I’d copy words of wisdom from great people, Einstein, for example, or Bruce Springsteen. Then, my kids grew up making their own handwritten notes. And my husband writes me love notes on recycled paper, because he’s all about being green.

Friends who know about my lunch box notes eagerly share stories of their own family traditions. So many focus on food. Maura’s mom always drew hearts on the shells of hard-boiled eggs. Melinda wrote messages on her kids’ bananas.

We’re into the third generation of lunch box notes in our home. Whenever my 3-year-old grandson, Clayton, spends the night, he knows his lunch is going to have a napkin note from Grandma in the morning. Last week, I drew a picture of me, waving widely and shouting his name. He took one look at it and screamed, “Where’s Grandpa?” I added a man in a clean shirt. “You forgot his tie,” he said. I quickly drew a line of stripes (條紋) down the front of the shirt. Clayton smiled. “Grandpa,” he whispered, running his fingers across the napkin. “It’s you!”

1.When the author first saw Dad’s lunch box notes, she felt ______.

A. moved B. nervous

C. awkward D. proud

2.What did the author put in the lunch boxes when her kids were in their teens?

A. the author’s husband is an environmentalist.

B. the author’s children dislike making lunch box notes.

C. the author’s grandson likes drawing pictures on napkins.

D. the author’s friends all had their brand of lunch box notes.

I was shopping in the supermarket when I heard a young voice. “Mom, come here! There’s a lady here my size!” The mother rushed to her son; then she turned to me to apologize. I smiled and told her, “It’s okay.” Then talked to the boy, “Hi, I’m Darry Kramer. How are you?” He studied me from head to toe, and asked, “Are you a little mommy?” “Yes, I have a son,” I answered. “Why are you so little?” he asked. “It’s the way I was born,” I said. “Some people are little. Some are tall. I’m just not going to grow any bigger.” After I answered his other questions, I shook the boy’s hand and left.

My life as a little person is filled with stories like that. I enjoy talking to children and explaining why I look different from their parents.

It takes only one glance to see my uniqueness. I stand three feet nine inches tall. I was born an achondroplasia dwarf (侏儒). Despite this, I did all the things other kids did when I was growing up.

I didn’t realize how short I was until I started school. Some kids joked on me, calling me names. Then I knew. I began to hate the first day of school each year. New students would always stare at me as I struggled to climb the school bus stairs.

But I learned to smile and accept the fact that I was going to be noticed my whole life. I decided to make my uniqueness an advantage rather than a disadvantage. What I lacked in height, I made up for in personality.

I’m 47 now, and the stares have not diminished as I’ve grown older. People are amazed when they see me driving. I try to keep a good attitude. When people are rude, I remind myself, “Look what else I have--a great family, nice friends.”

It’s the children’s questions that make my life special. I enjoy answering their questions. My hope is that I will encourage them to accept their peers (a person of the same age, class, position, etc.), whatever size and shape they come in, and treat them with respect.

A. Because the boy studied the author from head to toe.

C. Because they boy said the author was shorter than him.

D. Because the mother thought the boy’s words had hurt the author.

2.When did the author realize that she was too short?

A. When she grew up.

B. When she began to go to school.

C. When she was 47 years old.

D. When she met the boy in the supermarket.

3.Which of the following word can best replace the underlined word “diminished”?

A. doubted B. decreased

C. remained D. improved

4.Which is NOT true about the author according to the passage?

A. She suffered lots of discrimination when growing up.

Bad news travels fast--when you watch the evening news or read the morning papers, it seems that things that get the most coverage are all tragedies like wars, earthquakes, floods, fires and murders.

This is the classic rule for mass media. “They want your eyeballs and don’t care how you’re feeling,” Jonah Berger, a psychologist at University of Pennsylvania told The New York Times.

But with social media getting increasingly popular, information is now being spread in different ways, and researchers are discovering new rules--good news can actually spread faster and farther than disasters and other sad stories.

Berger and his colleague Katherine Milkman looked at thousands of articles on The New York Times’ website and analyzed the “most e-mailed” list for six months.

One of his findings was that articles in the science section were much more likely to make the list. Those stories aroused feelings of awe (敬畏) and made the readers want to share this positive emotion with others.

Besides science stories, readers were also found to be likely to share articles that were exciting or funny. “The more positive an article was, the more likely it was to be shared,” Berger wrote in his new book. “For example, stories about newcomers falling in love with New York City,” he writes, “tended to be shared more than the death of a popular zookeeper.”

But does all this good news actually make the audience feel better? Not necessarily.

According to a study by researchers at Harvard University, people tend to say more positive things about themselves when they’re talking to a bigger audience, rather than just one person, which helps explain all the perfect vacations that keep showing up on microblogs. This, researchers found, makes people think that life is unfair and that they’re less happy than their friends.

But no worries. There’s a quick and easy way to relieve the depression you get from viewing other people’s seemingly perfect lives--turn on the television and watch the news. There is always someone doing worse than you are.

A. the public care for reading tragedies

D. mass media appeal to the public to help victims

2.Which of the following might be e-mailed most according to Berger?

A. The perfect vacation of your friend

B. The story of a determined inventor

C. The death of a popular zookeeper

D. The flood hitting a small town

3.We can infer from the passage that .

A. bad news always makes people sad

B. people prefer to share bad news with a bigger audience

C. people can relieve the depression by reading good news

D. good news sometimes has negative influence

4.What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Good News Spreads Fast

B. Bad News Travels Fast

C. The Effect of Bad News

D. The Power of Good News

What will you do if you can’t eat everything bought in the canteen? 1.According to a survey, what students waste every year could feed over 10 million people.

It’s also important that everyone should think about how they can do their bit to reduce food waste.

A. Students’ waste is extremely serious.

B. Most of us would simply throw away any leftover food.

C. Students can never realize the serious food crisis.

D. So there’s no excuse that we should waste our food.

E. But canteen waste is merely the tip of the iceberg (冰山).

F. Compared with them, some live in a different world.

G. China, in turn, features its own eating culture.

I never had a to thank him personally, but the way in which I choose to look at life as a result of those words is his legacy (遺贈) to me and my thanks to him.

Failure is common in our life, and no one can avoid them. When we fail in doing something, we often feel very depressing. Sometime failure can make us lose hearts, so no one is willing to fail. On the contrary, success can bring us sense of pride. If one enjoys his continuous success in his career, he will have confidence to himself. Therefore, failure is the mother of success. A failure doesn’t mean one can never be successfully. Those who they are always afraid of failure will never succeed. In a word, as long as we can get some lessons and experience from our failure, you are sure to succeed.
