An illness had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me, and it would mean a great deal to him, I agreed.During the nine-mile drive to his home, I found out something about Matthew. He had muscular dystrophy(肌肉萎缩症). When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to be five, then they were he would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal power lifter, and I knew about overcoming obstacles and going for my dreams.I spent over an hour talking to Matthew. Never once did he complain or ask, “Why me?” He spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams. Obviously, he knew what he was talking about. He didnt mention that his classmates had made fun of him because he was different, and how one day he wanted to lift weight with me.When we finished talking, I went to my briefcase and pulled out the first gold medal I won and put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overcoming obstacles than I ever would. He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back to me. He said, “You are a champion. You earned that medal. Some day when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.”Last summer I received a letter from Matthews parents telling me that Matthew had passed away. They wanted me to have a letter he had written to me a few days before:Dear Rick:My mom said I should send you a thankyou letter for the picture you sent me. I also want to let you know that the doctors tell me that I wont have long to live anymore. But I still smile as much as I can.I told you some day I was going to the Olympics and win a gold medal. But I now know I will never get to do that. But I know Im a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you. Thank you for loving me.Yours friendMatthew36.

Confused? Help is at hand. It means “Great news-text messages are now in the Concise Oxford Dictionary.” In Britain alone, more than one million mobile phone text messages are sent every hour, so the Concise Oxford Dictionary has decided to include the shorthand language in its revised edition published on Thursday.SMS, or short messaging service, has been given its own appendix. The section features dozens of examples of the abbreviations which have become a second language to million of young people.“We have been monitoring the remarkable growth of text messages with great attention: its influence is now such that we felt it was time to treat it as an integral(必备的) part of English,” said the dictionarys publishing manager, Judy Pearsall.Examples that have found a place in the dictionary include BBLR(be back later) and HAND(have a nice day). They are joined by so-called emotions-representations of facial expressions such as :-) and :-( .The latest edition also includes new words judged to have entered everyday conversational use. Minger, meaning “an unattractive or unpleasant person” makes an entry, along with chowhand, defined by the dictionary as “a greedy person”, and tweenies, “children trying to appear older than they are.”40.Words like minger, chowhand and tweenies are _.A. old words with new meaningsB. new words used quite often todayC. new words not used oftenD. old words used not as often as today41.This news mainly tells us _.A. that words in mobile messages are included in the new edition of CODB. that more and more new words are introduced by CODC. how people make new words when send messages by mobile phoneD. why people like to use shorthand language in daily life42.Where will you find the new words defined?A. In a separate smaller dictionary.B. In the end part of COD.C. At the beginning of COD.D. Mixed among other words in CODCPersonally, I like Chinese New Years movies very much. Because they are filled with joyous themes, and this kind of movie is a good choice for people who finally finish a years hard work and wish to add some refreshment to their new year.And it proved to be true that Chinese New Years movies are in deed, for they were well received by common people in the late 1990s. However, after less than 10 years of flourishing, they are now facing a great decline in box office income.I think the failure of Chinese New Years movies is for two main reasons: lack of creation and low quality of production.Audiences are not fools. They watch movies in order to get satisfaction, happiness and enlightenment(启发), not to be tricked by meaningless, same stories. If a movies tells a boring story, how can filmmakers expect applause(鼓掌) from t he audience.And at the same time we hope that directors choose actors and actresses carefully. The success of a movie is mostly determined by a fine story and good performances. If performers arent able to communicate a characters emotions exactly, no matter how wonderful a story is, the movie may be a failure. So a popular New Years movie ought to be creative and elaborately(精心地)produced. My favorite Chinese New Years movie is “Be There or Be Square” (Bu Jian Bu San) directed by Feng Xiaogang. Its a story about love and life. The hero is a Chinese man who struggles hard in the US. One day, he meets a girl from Beijing. The two share the same goal: making their fortunes in America. After a series of ups and downs, they fail to realize their dreams. But, they finally fall in love with each other and decide to go back to China to make a brand new start.Feng is good at providing humorous and simple lines with deep and strongly felt meaning. As far as the audience is concerned, it was acceptable and interesting. And the leading actor and actress showed superior performances. They cooperated so well and acted so naturally that it seemed they were truly a pair of lovers.From the simple but moving story, I got a lot. Besides money and fame, there are many other beautiful things worth pursuing(追求) and loving.Good stories and actors are what the audience desire. Whether Chinese New Years movies will last in the New Years film market depends mostly on the filmmakers attitude towards movie production. I hope that in the coming new year, I can spend several hours in a cinema enjoying a good movie instead of just chatting with my friends to escape a boring movie.43.From the passage we know _.A. the author thinks highly of the present New Years moviesB. the author are complaining of some New Years moviesC. people dont need New Years movies nowD. none of New Years movies are well produced44.In the opinion of the author, New Years movies should solve the following problems except _.A. lack of creationB. low-quality of productionC. directors careful choices of actors and actressesD. simplicity45.One of the things that make the author like the movie “Be There or Be Square” (Bu Jian Bu San) is _.A. humor, simplicity and satisfactory endB. nature, enlightenment and sad backgroundC. good theme, good performances and a brand new startD. creation, good production and natural performances46.Filmmakers attitude to movie production will _.A. mostly determine whether the New Years film market will lastB. determine the success of the future New Years moviesC. mostly determine whether Chinese New Years movies will lastD. determine Chinese film marketDHalf-TruthsBe aware of those who use the truth to deceive. When someone tells you something that is true, but leaves out important information that should be included, he can create a false impression. For example, someone might say, “I just won a hundred dollars on the lottery. It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and turned it in for one hundred dollars!” This guys a winner, right? Maybe, maybe not. We then discover that he bought two hundred tickets, and only one was a winner. Hes really a big loser! He didnt say anything that was false, but he deliberately omitted important information. Thats called a half-truth. Half-truths are not technically lies, but they are just as dishonest. Untrustworthy candidates in political campaigns often use this tactic. Lets say that during Governor Smiths last term, her state lost one million jobs and gained three million jobs. Then she seeks another term. One of her opponents runs an ad saying, “During Governor Smiths term, the sate lost one million jobs!” Thats true. However an honest statement would have been, “During Governor Smiths term, the state had a net gain of two million jobs.” Advertisers will sometimes use half-truths. Its against the law to make false claims so they try to mislead you with the truth. An ad might boast, “Nine out of ten doctors recommend Yucky Pills to cure nose pimples.” It fails to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Corporation. This kind of deception happens too often. Its a sad fact of life: Lies are lies, and sometimes the truth can lie as well.47.Which statement is true according to the article?A. Whenever people tell the truth, they are really lying.B. You cant trust gamblers.C. All governors help their states.D. The truth can be used in dishonest ways.48.What does “deceive” mean?A. removing ones teeth in publicB. not to think about warningsC. foolD. repair49.What does “omitted” mean?A. spent moneyB. left outC. told aboutD. exposed50.The author clearly wants people to _.A. think carefully about what they read and hearB. wear mismatched socks during political campaignsC. never trust anyoneD. vote for female candidates51.Another appropriate title for this selection would be:A. Natural Cat FoodB. Everyone LiesC. Lying With the TruthD. Nose Pimples EYou have read about Romulus and Remus whose culture shock came when they went back to the world of human beings after being raised by a wolf. Tarzans culture shock came when he discovered that he was not a white ape but a human being. Emily Carr preferred the culture of the First Nations people and the life she led on her explorations to the dresses and polite conversations of her own culture. You now know that First Nations culture did not include school or even business activity, people spent most of their time in nature or around the fire of their home talking, telling stories and making the things they needed to survive. Psychologists tell us that there are four basic stages that human beings pass through when they enter and live in a new culture. This process, which helps us to deal with culture shock, is the way our brain and our personality reacts to the strange new things we encounter when we move from one culture to another. If our culture involves bowing when we greet someone, we may feel very uncomfortable in a culture that does not involve bowing. If the language we use when talking to someone in our own culture is influenced by levels of formality based on the other persons age and status, it may be difficult for us to feel comfortable communicating with people in the new culture. Culture begins with the honeymoon stage. This is the period of time when we first arrive in which everything about the new culture is strange and exciting. We may be suffering from jet lag but we are thrilled to be in the new environment, seeing new sights, hearing new sounds and language, eating new kinds of food. This honeymoon stage can last for quite a long time because we feel we are involved in some kind of great adventure. Unfortunately, the second stage of culture shock can be more difficult. After we have settled down into our new life, working or studying, buying groceries, doing laundry, or living with a home-stay family, we can become very tired and begin to miss our homeland and our family, girlfriend/boyfriend, pets. All the little problems that everybody in life has seem to be much bigger and more disturbing when you face them in a foreign culture. This period of cultural adjustment can be very difficult and lead to the new arrival rejecting or pulling away from the new culture. This rejection stage can be quite dangerous because the visitor may develop unhealthy habits (smoking and drinking too much, being too concerned over food or contact with people from the new culture). This can, unfortunately lead to the person getting sick or developing skin infections or rashes which then makes the person feel even more scared and confused and helpless. This stage is considered a crisis in the process of cultural adjustment and many people choose to go back to their homeland or spend all their time with people from their own culture speaking their native language. The third stage of culture shock is called the adjustment stage. This is when you begin to realize that things are not so bad in the host culture. Your sense o
