Last July, my parents and I went to visit my aunt and uncle in Seattle, a city on the northwest American coast. Dad did some research and had no difficulty in finding us cheap tickets online.
On the day of our flight, we had to wake up very early. When we checked our bags in, we found that one bag weighed too much, so we had to pay a fine. After that, dad insisted that we go and have some breakfast at the airport restaurant. We had a lot of fun watching many different people there. Then we realized it was getting late, so we rushed to the gate. It took one hour for everyone to get on the plane, but finally the door was shut and we were on our way!
I think my favorite experience during our trip was our visit to Mount Rainier, a volcano near Seattle. It was nothing like I had expected. Before we left, my aunt lent us hats to protect us from getting sunburned, so I supposed that it would be very hot. Imagine my surprise when we drove up the mountain and I discovered the top was covered with snow and ice.!
My uncle led us to a small path beyond the main trails to increase our chances of seeing wildlife. We walked over a small hill, and suddenly before us there appeared a field of snow. Small wild flowers grew up through the snow; underneath the snow we could hear rushing water—a small stream. Little animals stood still to avoid being noticed; tiny birds rose into the air. It was the most beautiful sight that I’d ever seen.
1.What ticket did the father buy for the family?
A.Bus B.Ship
C.Train D.Airplane
2.Why did they pay a fine?
A.Because they got up late. B.Because they didn’t wait in line.
C.Because they came to the airport late. D.Because their bag was overweight.
3.What was the writer’s most impressive experience?
A.The flight to Seattle B.The breakfast in the airport
C.The visit to Mount Rainier D.The discovery of a small stream
4.Why did they choose a small path instead of the main trails?
A.To enjoy more of the wildlife B.To take a shortcut to save time
C.To avoid the snowy road D.To avoid being attacked by animals

Last week I went to visit to my former neighbor, Mr. Yang. He and I used to living next to each other for many years.

I began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunt’s house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America. We were on the bus then. I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning.
I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact, I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see—the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures. The country I was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then.
The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost—having to study in three schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what I was or what I should be. Mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me. Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other. I was often sad, and saw no end to “the hard times. ”
My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with Immigration officers, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives.
From my experiences I have learned one important rule: Almost all common troubles eventually go away! Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little! I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy.

My nephew’s 10-year-old son came for a visit one hot, July weekend. I persuaded him to inside and joined him in a game. After for an hour, I suggested that we relax for a while. I fell into my favorite recliner(躺椅)to let my neck muscles relax. He'd slipped out of the room and I was catching a few moments of peace and quiet.
"Look,Alice,” he said as he ran over to the chair where I was sitting "I found a kite. Could we go outside and it?"
Glancing out a nearby window, I noticed it was outside. “I'm sorry, Tripper,.” I said, sad to see his eyes. "The wind is not blowing today. The kite won't fly.”
The 10-year-old replied, “I think it's enough. I can get it to fly,” he answered as he ran out to the back door .
Up and down in the yard he ran, pulling the kite to a small length of string. He ran back and forth,as hard as his ten year-old would carry him, looking back at the kite behind. After about ten minutes of determination, he came back in.
I asked, "How did it go?"
"Fine,”he said, not wanting to admit .“I got it to fly some”
As he walked past me to return the kite to the closet shelf, I heard him say under his breath, "I guess I'll have to wait for the .”
At that moment I heard another Voice speak to my . "Alice, sometimes you are just like that. You want to do it your way waiting for the Wind.”
And the voice was right. We usually want to use our own efforts to what we want to do. We wait for the Wind only after we have done all we can and have exhausted(耗尽)our own .We must learn how to rely on Him in the first place!
