The next time you go grocery shopping, try speaking to other customers. One summer day, I took a smile and a warm heart into a small store in Oregon and got far more than groceries.

I love fresh produce(农产品) in the store, and not just for the amazing colors provided by summer's bounty (慷慨) or the chance to joy over new choices from other countries. It's also because I just love watching people pick their produce.

The day I was there I found a sale on amazing cherry tomatoes—along with a woman in her late 70s. Despite the fact that we were strangers, we began to discuss apples. She noted a problem with the Pink Ladies. "They tasted like I was eating an unripe green apple from the tree," she said, twisting her face as if still tasting the sour apple.

I wondered if this is something most of my generation can even remember doing. I surely do. I mentioned that I often could not resist the green yet tempting fruit swinging from an apple tree. This was the start for a series of discussions as we shopped-covering such topics as nutrition, new foods and the quality of produce.

By this time a third woman had joined in our conversation. The three of us continued along, unexpected friends, chatting about family size and the troubles a mom might have serving healthful foods that please the whole family.

Eventually we all went our separate ways, but in the dairy(奶制品) section I heard a small voice say, "I finally caught up with you." It was the first woman I'd talked to, extending a bag of apricots(杏) to me. "I don't know if your family will eat these," she added, "but they have a super deal on them."

Again I was brought back to my childhood, when I also ate apricots straight from the tree. My mouth watered at the remembered flavor.

The old lady didn't realize that she'd given me far more than produce. With that offering came a sense of community, a flashback to days when it was OK to talk to a stranger. She brought back memories of summer fruits right from the tree—and a feeling that somehow those apricots were a thank-you for sharing my time with her in a very unlikely place.

1.One reason the author likes fresh produce in grocery shop is that ________.

A. she enjoys observing people selecting fresh produce

B. she likes watching people tasting fresh produce

C. she produces fresh produce herself

D. she sells fresh produce herself

2.What might be the problem with the Pink Ladies noted by the old lady?

A. Their price was too high.

B. Their color was too green.

C. Their taste was too sour.

D. Their size was too small.

3.Why did the old lady bring a bag of apricots to the author?

A. She found the apricots were on sale in the shop.

B. She learned that the author wanted to buy apricots.

C. She wanted to send the apricots as a gift to the author.

D. She knew that the author's family liked eating apricots.

4.According to the author, what is the extra value of grocery shopping?

A. It adds flavor and color to her boring daily life.

B. It helps her to see the importance of family life.

C. It gives her a chance to learn about nutrition knowledge.

D. It brings her unexpected friendship and sweet memories.

You will go to college some day and college is one of the most exciting stages of one’s life.If you wish to make the most of your campus(校园) experience and become a better person after those four years，then first you ought to make friends.Close friends contribute to your self­growth for they provide you with moral support that is so important to survive the stressful college life.Friends can lend a helping hand when necessary like collecting your homework when you’re too sick to leave your dorm，and help you develop the right attitude by pointing out to you your weaknesses.

Actively participating in a class debate(辩论) or lecture contributes to your self­growth as it helps you build confidence in speaking up and improves your communication skills.It also helps you develop the right attitude by exercising diplomacy(外交术) when you choose your words carefully especially when discussing a very politically sensitive issue and exercising patience when dealing with classmates who shoot down your ideas.

You’re so young right now, but I hope this letter will be helpful to you one day when you’re older. I feel it is my responsibility, as a mother of two little girls, to lead you down a path that is relatively healthy when it comes to beauty and self-image. In a lot of women’s eyes, I’ve probably already failed in this aspect due to a lot of pink Barbie dolls in Vera’s room right now.

But I will say this about Barbie dolls: I played with Barbie dolls for many years when I was growing up and here I have a healthy body and a positive image. I have a master’s degree, a successful career and a published book. If Barbie dolls were really so damaging to my femininity(女人气质) and self-image, I highly doubt whether I could list all of these achievements.

It’s hard for women not to worry about our weight or to wish we could afford more stylish clothes. It’s hard not to want someone else’s hair or eyelashes. We women go round and round in circles, holding hands and trying to be one another sometimes. The thing I’ll tell you is this: not even the prettiest of us feel settled. The girl you think looks the most perfect in all the world is probably the girl who wants to change herself more than anyone else.

Don’t let that message carry any weight within yourselves. You are not worthless. You are so full of love and light and you should let it shine through your every second. If someone pushes you down for standing tall then just push yourself back up and stand even taller, and know that the reason why they pushed you down in the first place is just that they’re scared. I want to tell you that I have never in my life felt more beautiful than when I have stood my tallest.

1.What does the author think about Barbie dolls?

A. They did no harm to her image. B. They enable her to achieve a lot.

C. They prevented her development. D. They contributed to her promotion.

2.What can we learn from the third paragraph?

A. It’s women’s nature to be envious. B. It’s easy to read women’s thoughts.

C. Women like to be close to each other. D. Women tend to pursue a perfect appearance.

3.What does the author suggest her daughters do?

A. Try to be the most beautiful. B. Stand tall with love and toughness.

C. Compare themselves with others to improve. D. Push others down on the way to be the tallest.

4.What’s the author’s purpose in writing the letter?

A. To tell her daughters what real beauty is. B. To warn her daughters of the trouble in life.

C. To share with her daughters all her experience. D. To persuade her daughters to follow her example.
