My father was born in a small town in the US. He wanted to get out and begin a new adventure. He began that adventure by traveling to different cities in the US before going on to other countries. He took his wife and three daughters with him and went wherever the road took him.

It's easy to feel lonely when you're on the road. As my mother said repeatedly ,“We made lots of new friends on our trip—most of them were workers who fix cars, since we often spent hours in repair shops during the journey."

Getting along sometimes seemed impossible. There were always a lot of arguments, especially among us back-seat passengers about who had to sit in the middle. But even if it was hard, we did learn a lot about forgiveness. When in the Philippines, we drove to Quezon City one day. It should have been a one-hour drive but was nearly three, thanks to bad roads and worse traffic.“Did you put our suitcases (行李箱) in the car?" My father asked my mother as we arrived. "No," she said. "I thought you did." That

was how a seven-hour car trip turned into a 16-hour car trip, which was mostly spent in silence. In situations like that, we had to learn to let go of our anger. We were stuck (困在) in a rolling box with the same people for the rest of the journey. Even if I sometimes felt like opening the car door and pushing one of my sisters out, I kept my feelings to myself.

This is why road trips were like moving universities to us. We earned our PhDs(博士学位) in how to get along with other people just by traveling in that old car.

1.Who did the writer’s family make many friends with on their trip?

A.Other travelers. B.Shop owners. C.Car repair workers. D.Tour guides.

2.What does the underlined word "forgiveness" in Paragraph 3 mean?

A.原谅 B.放弃 C.坚持 D.遗忘

3.What do we know about their trip in the Philippines?

A.They took a train to Quezon City.

B.The writer's mother lost their suitcases.

C.One of the writer's sisters was pushed out of the car.

D.They spent more time driving than they planned.

4.What word would the writer use to describe these trips?

A.Adventurous. B.Educational. C.Boring. D.Surprising.

Take a Moment to Really See

I was driving to a meeting and I was planning in my mind what I was going to say. I came to a very busy crossroads but the stop light just turned red. "All right，" I thought to myself. "I can beat the next light if I race ahead of the line."

Suddenly my thought was broken by an unforgettable sight（情景）. A young couple, both blind, were walking am-in-arm across the busy crossroads. They couldn't see. Cars were running by in every direction. Each of them held a white cane（手杖） which helped them to cross the road.

I was moved. They were fighting against blindness. "Wouldn't it be terrible to be blind?" I thought. My line of thought was quickly broken by what I saw: the couple were not walking in the crosswalk， but into the path （路） of oncoming cars. I was frightened.

But I didn't see an accident. Something wonderful happened. Every car in every direction came to a stop almost at the same time. Suddenly a driver stuck（伸出） his head out of his car and shouted, "To your right. To your right!" Other people followed, shouting, "To your right!" They all wanted to help.

Without a stop, the couple changed their direction. They trusted their white canes and the help of some caring people. They came to the other side of the road safely..

I have thought of this situation many times since it happened and have learned something from it. "Slow down and smell the roses." Do yourself a favor as you walk through life. Take time to look around and really see what is going on around you right now. Maybe you are missing something wonderful.

Once upon a time there lived a great storyteller whose stories gave both children and adults a lot of pleasure and enjoyment. He told a story about an emperor who loved new clothes and about a tiny girl who was no taller than a person’s thumb （拇指）.

That storyteller's name was Hans Christian Andersen. He was born in Denmark. He wrote more than 150 stories, which are told in many countries. He became the first author to write and publish his own fairy tales. Andersen grew up poor. His father was a shoemaker, and his mother could hardly read. Andersen once said, “Most of what I have written is a reflection of myself.” His fairy tale, The Ugly Duckling, about a duckling that is laughed by other animals until it grows up to be a swan （天鹅）, was written according to his own experience as a child. His other famous fairy tales include The Little Match Girl, The Daughter of the Sea and The Snow Queen.

Andersen’s fans celebrated the anniversary （周年纪念日） of his 200th birthday in 2005. People are told his fairy tales in many countries. They organized different kinds of celebrations to remind people ofAndersen and Andersen’s fairy tales.

In Denmark, 15-foot-tall puppets（木偶）danced in mid-air every night from May until September. In Singapore, the post office published a series （系列） of Andersen stamps. And in Egypt, the library in Alexandria showed Andersen's books, which were translated into 150 languages! In New York City’s Central Park, storyteller Ellen Shapiro told The Real Princess to a crowd of children.

“Andersen's stories have everything,” Shapiro told the reporter. “They are funny and sad and enjoyable. I never get tired of them. ”

Storytellers such as Shapiro love continuing Andersen’s tradition. Shapiro doesn’t memorize her favorite stories, however. Instead, she learns what happens at the beginning, middle, and end. She changes the words of a story to fit the listeners. So no two tellings of a story are exactly alike.
