In the very early 1800's, a young boy about 14 years old named John lived in a orphanage(孤儿院) in Old England along with several other children. Orphan meant unwanted and unloved. Christmas was the one day of the year when the children didn't work and received a gift, an orange. Usually they tried to taste and keep it for so long that it often went bad before they ever peeled（剥开）it to enjoy the sweet juice. Many thoughts were expressed as Christmas time drew near. The children would say, "I will keep mine the longest." John usually slept with his next to his pillow. This year John was overjoyed by the Christmas season. He was becoming a man and stronger and soon he would be old enough to leave. He would save his orange until his birthday in July. Christmas day finally came. The children were so excited as they entered the big dinning hall. Immediately the master shouted, "John, leave the hall and there will be no orange for you this year." John's heart broke violently wide open. He turned and went quickly back to the cold room. Then he heard the door open and each of the children entered. Little Elizabeth with her hair falling over her shoulders, a smile on her face, and tears in her eyes held out a piece of rag to John. "Here John," she said, "this is for you."

Tiger Mom, You’ve been criticized(批评) a lot since your book, Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother, came out. One problem is that some people don’t get your humor. They think you’re serious about all things and Lulu and I are suffering a lot from such a strict mother. That is not true. But for real, it’s not their fault. No outsider can know what our family is really like. They don’t hear us laughing over each other’s jokes. They don’t see us eating our hamburgers with fried rice. They don’t know how much fun we have when the six of us — dogs included — squeeze into one bed and argue about what movies to download from Netflix. I admit it: Having you as a mother was no tea party. There were some play dates I wish I’d gone to and some piano camps I wish I’d got away from. But now that I’m 18 and about to leave the tiger den(穴), I’m glad you and Daddy raised me the way you did. A lot of people have accused you of producing robot kids who can’t think for themselves. Well, I came to the opposite conclusion: your strict parenting made me more independent(独立的). Everybody’s talking about the birthday cards we once made for you, which you refused to take because they weren’t good enough. Funny how some people believe that Lulu and I will feel hurt for life. But let’s face it: It took me 30 second; I didn’t put my heart into it. That’s why, when you rejected it, I didn’t feel hurt at all. There’s one more thing: I have come to understand what it really means to live a meaningful life to the fullest. To me, it’s about knowing that you’ve tried your best, body and mind. You feel it when the piano piece you’ve practiced for days and hours finally comes to life beneath your fingertips. You feel it when you do something on your own that you never thought you could. And for that, Tiger Mom, thank you. Yours, Sophia 1. In the writer’s opinion, why do some people criticize her mother? A. They don’t know what her family is really like. B. They have a different culture. C. They aren’t strict with their children. D. They don’t have a good sense of humor. 2.The passage tells us her mother’s strict parenting raised the writer to be _________. A. a robot kid B. a kid with no play dates C. a kid uninterested in the piano D. an independent thinker 3. Which of the following sentences is Wrong ? A. Sophia is thankful for what her strict mother has made her B. Sophia has never been disturbed by tea parties. C. Sophia is satisfied with her parents’ way of raising her. D. Tiger Mom was blamed for rejecting her daughters’ birthday cards. 4.The underlined words “it” in the last paragraph refer to_________. A. Making personal achievements B. Having lived your life at 110 percent C. Practicing piano pieces D. Doing something on your own

FOOD is basic – it’s what keeps us going. But for students at the International Culinary (烹饪) Center (ICC) in New York City, it’s much more than that – food is the future. ICC “gave me a direction”, said Song Wenlong, 25, a Chinese native and recent graduate of the world famous cooking school. ICC, which was set up in 1984, offers courses from chef (厨师)training programs to wine studies and restaurant management”, according to its website. And as the school has grown, the number of international students to ICC, including Chinese, is rising every year. One example is Song Wenlong, who grew up in Shanghai but now works in Los Angeles as director of food development for RJ Chinese Kitchen, a restaurant in California. Song has lived in the US for three years. He first completed a degree in Engineering at Stony Brook University in New York. Song said. “I chose the degree based on my parents’ opinion. The people I met abroad encouraged me to chase my dream, so I ended up changing my whole career path.” That's what brought him to ICC ---his love of food. “Growing up, my uncle had a restaurant, and I loved going with him to the farmers’ market. When I was 16, I started to cook on my own.” Song said he likes ICC’s ideas toward cooking. “They taught me how to cook, not special recipes（秘诀）. They call it ‘cooking techniques’. I learned a lot from that. The two-month internship(实习) in a restaurant was helpful, too. It gave me a look at a high-quality, professional kitchen.” Song highly recommends Chinese chefs and food lovers go abroad and study. Above all, he feels good about the fact that more young Chinese people are starting to chase their own dreams.
1.What is the main point of the article? A. The popularity of cooking schools around the world. B. What makes ICC a great cooking school. C. How Wenlong succeeded in his studies at ICC. D. More Chinese students learning cooking abroad. 2.Why did Wenlong choose to go to ICC? A. He had a great love of food. B. ICC offers various kinds of courses. C. His parents ordered him to choose a career in food. D. His classmates encouraged him to work in food. 3.How is ICC different from other cooking schools according to Wenlong? A. It teaches many unique recipes. B. It teaches students cooking techniques. C. It has top professors from all over the world. D. It lets students intern at the best restaurants. 4.What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To attract international students to apply for ICC B.

Nobody likes making mistakes. But, no one is perfect. If you can learn from mistakes correctly, they can move you forward. Therefore, we should analyse how you can learn from them. If you have made mistakes that harm other people, it is important to offer a sincere apology (道歉)in person. A good apology will likely make the other person forgive you. If you refuse to apologize, the person hurt by you will hold it against you. If you go through life afraid to make a mistake, you will spend most of you life doing nothing. There is no harm in making mistakes; it is an essential part of going forward. The more duties you take, the more likely you will make mistakes. Unluckily, it is our natural instinct（本能） to justify（为……辩解） our actions. When you make a mistake, you will first blame someone else. When mistakes are made, the boss is unlikely to be interested in justifications. Sometimes it is best to say, very simply--yes, I made a mistake. Mistakes happen for various reasons. To avoid（避免）repeating them, you need to understand the main reason. For example, you may have made a mistake by saying some unkind words. If you make mistakes because you are tired, try to get more sleep; if you are stressed, look at ways to relax and keep away from the stress of work. You should avoid feeling guilty about making mistakes, but at the same time, you should make a decision to learn from them. If you repeat the same mistakes, it shows you aren’t making progress and they cause repeating suffering. Often mistakes are caused by bad habits. To avoid making the same mistakes you need to break these bad habits. The sooner, the better.
