Most British telephone cards are just plain green, but card collecting is becoming a popular hobby in Britain and collectors even have their own magazine, International Telephone Cards. One reason for their interest is that cards from around the world come in a wide variety of different and often very attractive designs. There are 100, 000 different cards in Japan alone, and there you can put your own design onto a blank card simply by using a photograph or a business card. The first telephone cards, produced in 1976, were Italian. Five years later the first British card appeared, and now you can buy cards in more than a hundred countries. People usually start collecting cards because they are attractive, small and light , and they do not need much space. It is also a cheap hobby for beginners, although for some people it becomes a serious business. In Paris, for example, there is a market where you can buy only telephone cards, and some French cards cost up to 4, 000 pounds. The first Japanese card has a value of about 28, 000 pounds. Most people only see cards with prices like these in their collectors magazine. 1.The text is mainly about ________ . A. the history of phone cards B. phone card collecting as a hobby C. reason for phone card collecting D. the great variety of phone cards 2.When did people in Britain begin to use phone cards? A. In 1971. B. In 1975. C. In 1976. D. In 1981. 3.The main reason for most people to collect phone cards is that ________ . A. they find the cards beautiful and easy to keep B. they like to have something from different countries C. they want to make money with cards D. they think the cards are convenient to use 4.The writer mentions a market in Paris in order to show that ________ A. card collecting is popular among young people B. French and Japanese cards are the most valuable C. people can make money out of card collecting D. card collectors magazines are very useful

Dear sir, I read your story (of the 4th February) about the cost of living in the country rather than in the town, and I agree with most of the points that you made. My husband and I lived in the middle of Horlton until two years ago — a seaside town of nearly five hundred thousand people. When my husband stopped working, we moved to our present house in a small village at the foot of Roland Hill, and there is no doubt that our costs are higher now. I have to do my shopping in small shops, where the food is more expensive than in city supermarkets; it costs more to travel by bus; and because the men who come to mend the television or the washing machine, have to come farther, we have to pay them more. But it does not cost us much to enjoy what is beautiful in the country; and peace and quiet are cheap. Many people spend a great deal of time and money driving into the country to enjoy the simple things of life; yet we can enjoy them just by going out of the front door. It costs more to live here than it did in Horlton but now life really is worth living. Yours faithfully. Edith Randall 1.What do you know about Horlton? A. A quiet town not far from the sea. B. A middle-sized town until two years ago. C. A town with a population of nearly half a million. D. A small village at the foot of Roland Hill 2. What Mrs Randall really wants to express in the letter is that _____. A. it cost less to live in the country B. it costs more to live in the country C. living in the country is no better than in the town D. she is quite satisfied with the life in the country 3.One can probably find this letter in _____. A. a guidebook B. a newspaper C. a speech D. a story book 4.According to the passage, which of the following is true? A. The letter is written by an unknown person. B. This letter is a reply to the questions of 4th February. C. Living in the country is better than living in the city. D. The cost of living in the city is lower than that of the country.

We’ve all been hurt by another person at one time or another. This pain causes problems. It not only causes us to be unhappy, but can ruin relationships, distract(使分心) us from work and family and other important things, make us unwilling to open up new things. We need to learn to let go. We need to be able to forgive, so we can move on and be happy. Forgiveness does not mean you erase the past, or forget what has happened. All it means is that you are letting go of the anger and pain, and moving on to a better place. It’s not easy, but you can learn to do it. Think about the advantages and disadvanges. Think of all the problems this pain causes you, and realize you need to change. Then think of the benefits of forgiveness—— how it will make you happier, free you from the past and the pain, and improve your relationships and life in general. Try to put yourself in that person’s situation. Try to understand why the person did what he did. What could he have felt as he did it, and what did he feel afterward? How does he feel now? You aren’t saying what he did is right, but are trying to understand instead. Understand your responsibility. Try to figure out how you could have been partly responsible for what happened. This isn’t to say you’re taking all the blame, or taking responsibility away from the other person, but to realize that we are not victims(受害者) but participants in life. Allow peace to enter your life. As you focus on the present, try focusing on your breathing. Imagine each breath going out is the pain and the past, and imagine each breath coming in is peace, entering you and filling you up. Title: How to let go and forgive

It was a winter morning, just two weeks before Christmas 2005. While most people were warming up their cars, Trevor, my husband, had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work. On arrival, he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does. After putting in 10 hours of labor, he returned to find his bike gone. The bike was our only transport. Trevor used it to get to work, putting in 60-hour weeks to support his young family. I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I wrote to the newspaper and told them our story. Shortly after that, several people in our area offered to help. One wonderful stranger even bought a bike, then called my husband to pick it up. Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job. It really is an honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before. People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another, but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so. This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened our faith in humanity as a whole. And it has influenced us to be more mindful of ways we, too, can share with others. No matter how big or how small, an act of kindness shows that someone cares. And the results can be everlasting. 1.Why was the bike so important to the couple? (Within 10 words) _______________________________________________________________________. 2.How did people get to know the couple’s problem? (Within 3 words) _______________________________________________________________________. 3.What do the couple learn from their experience? (Within 12 words) _______________________________________________________________________.
