What about traveling into the future? Theres an easy way to do it. One way you can make a time travel journey is by writing a letter to your future self to be opened in the future. To your future self, the letter will be a visit from the past. What can be gained by writing a letter to yourself? Depends on how good your letter is. You have the chance to say something to your future self. What would you want to say? Youll be able to talk to yourself 5,10,15 years down the road. There may be instructions for your future self, or you may have goals that you will want to reach. There are a lot of things you could include in your letter or letters to yourself. The more you include, the better the letter will be to you. Be creative with what you put in your letter. Include a picture of yourself or family to show the period from which the letter came. You can store your letter in many different ways. You can give your letter to a friend or family member to keep and mail to you. If you can get others to take part, have them write letters to themselves as well and ask someone to be the letter holder until its time to send the letters. You can also use a service online to store your letter and e-mail it to you. Ready to write to yourself two and a half years down the road? 21.How can you travel into the future?ABy traveling back in time.BBy paying a visit to the futureCBy opening a letter from the past.DBy writing a letter to your future self.22.If you want to gain more in the future, you should_.Ahave the chance to say something to your future selfBtalk to yourself 5, 10, 15 years down the roadCwrite more about instructions for your future selfDinclude as many things as possible in your letter23.Why do you put a picture in your letter?ATo check up on your goals.BTo share your feelings with your family.CTo show the time when the letter was written.DTo find out your thoughts and feelings now. (B) After suffering through many months of unemployment(失业). my wife and I moved this week from Colorado to Ohio. where she was starting a new job.Not knowing anybody there. we were pretty concerned about how wed get our entire home unloaded (卸下) without killing ourselves. We made a phone call to hire (临时雇用) a couple of college students to help with all the heavy lifting once we got there.But one neighbor after another stopped by to help us.What ? Have we moved to some other country ? Maybe weve died and gone to heaven! Unloading actually became fun and joy because there were so many wonderful new friends to help when we worked.The more people helped. the easier the work became.We were afraid the job might take days for the two of us alone. but it was finished in a few hours.Many total strangers would either walk by the sidewalk or drive by to ask us if we were moving in.Many were happy that this old house that had sat empty for so long was coming to life again.We were invited to an outdoor meal yesterday by neighbors on the same street. All the time. my brain was resting on this new sense of hope that people can be so friendly to strangers.Among all the conversation were lots of offers to help each other in all kinds of ways.Its wonderful to live in such a kind little town.I feel so grateful to be here. and wish the rest of the world could see how an entire community can model(做榜样) what its like to help each other.24. The author and his wife moved to Ohio because_.A. they liked moving from one place to anotherB. they were both out of work in ColoradoC. the students of his wife were living thereD. his wife had found a new job there25. From the underlined part , we can learn when offered help , the author felt_.A. grateful B. surprised C. bored D. crazy26. We can learn from the passage that the authors neighbors_.A. thought it hard work to move inB. were curious about the newcomersC. were glad that the old house would have its new ownerD. hired two college students to help him27. According to the passage , which of the following is TRUE?A. The author has many old friends in Ohio.B. It took the author and his wife days to get home unloaded.C. The author and his wife invited the neighbors to a dinner.D. The author is very satisfied with his new home and new neighbors.28. It can be inferred from the passage that_.A. we dont know what is good until we have lost itB. kindness is the sunshine of social lifeC. where there is a will. there is a wayD. there is no place like home (C)Who taught you to speak English? Your parents, while you were a young child? Your teachers at school ? Perhaps even the BBC as a grown-up. Whoever it was, somehow you have developed an understanding of what is rapidly becoming a truly global language.There are now about 376 million people who speak English as their first language and about the same number who have learnt it besides their mother tongue. It is said there are one billion people learning English now and about 80% of the information on the Internet is in English.Is this a good thing, or a bad thing? Should we celebrate the fact that more and more of us can communicate, using a common language, across countries and cultures? Or should we worry about the dangers of “mono-culturalism, a world in which we all speak the same language, eat the same food and listen to the same music?Does it matter if an increasing number of people speak the same language? On the contrary (相反),I would have thoughtalthough I have never accepted the argument that if only we all understood each other better, there would be fewer wars. Ask the people of India (where many of them speak at least some English) and Pakistan (the same situation with India)If we all speak English, will we then all start eating McDonalds burgers? Surely not. If English becomes more dominant (占主导地位的), it will kill other languages? I doubt it. When I travel in Africa or Asia, I am always surprised by how many people can speak not only their own language but also one or more other related languages, as well as English and perhaps some French or German as well.When we discussed this on Talking Point a couple of years ago, we received a wonderfully poetic email from a listener in Ireland. The English language is a beautiful language. Maybe its like a rose, he said. But who would ever want their garden just full of roses?Well, I love roses, and I think they make a beautiful addition to any garden. But the way I see it, just by planting a few roses, you dont necessarily need to pull out everything else. If more and more people want to plant English roses, thats fine by me.29. By saying Ask the people of India and Pakistan (in Paragraph 4), the author is trying to show that _.A. speaking the same language doesnt necessarily bring peaceB. wars can destroy the relationship between two countriesC. English doesnt kill other languagesD. English is widely used in the world30. What does rose in the last two paragraphs stand for?A. The world B. Family C. Language D. The Earth31. The author would probably agree that _.A. its very hard to plant many kinds of flowers in a gardenB. its good for people from other countries to learn EnglishC. more and more people like to plant roses in their gardensD. English is easier to learn than other languages32. This passage is mainly about _.A. why English has become a global languageB. how many people in the world speak EnglishC. how people in the world learn English as a foreign languageD. whether we need to worry about English being a world language(D)In high school,all Canadian students take part in a very exciting event. It is Take Your Children toWork Day.Students will have a chance to work with their parents. My day took place in my momswork,the York Region Police Department. When I arrived,a coach was teaching the officers basic combat(格斗)skills. Everyone tried their best to practice.I could see them sweating and panting (喘气).The most exciting part of my visit was a stop at the 911 Communication Center. 911 is the same as110,119 and 120 in China.Every 911 call in the city is answered here. When I entered the center, I stood beside a call dispatcher (分派人员)arid watched him dealing-with the calls. Suddenly,the phone rang,he picked it up and a woman cried for help. There was a robbery in herhouse. The call dispatcher told her,Please calm down and move to the safe place quietly. Dont fight with them. Just let them take what they want. Please make sure you are not hurt. We are sending officers there. He followed the call and found the address. The call dispatcher chose the five closest police cars from the satellite map and clicked(敲键盘) to send the policemen.I saw the police cars from the satellite map were quickly moving to the womans house.Five minutes later,they arrived.I asked the call dispatcher why he sent five cars.He said,There are different levels of emergencies.Robbery is a high priority (优先 ) ,so we have to send five cars. The day was interesting.I leaned how the different departments worked together.The officers were very friendly and admirable.33. Whats the best title for the article?A.
