The phrase “live, love and laugh” was one my cousin Roger lived by every day of his life. Even in his sickness, he found the positive in what some would see as a negative situation. He enjoyed life. He loved to laugh and most importantly, he lived life to the absolute fullest. He loved to travel, learning new things about different people and their culture.
Roger was born and raised in Alabama, and he then moved to Buffalo, New York where he lived for many, many years until he relocated to Atlanta, Georgia, his final resting place.
Whether his travels were long visits or short visits, large cities or small towns, his favorite souvenir item was T-shirt. Everywhere he went he would buy a T-shirt to remind him of his travels. Every T-shirt he owned had a story behind it that he would share with others.
As long as he was laughing, living and traveling, he was happy. He loved everybody he came in contact with and everybody loved him. The old saying, “He never met a stranger”, definitely applied to Roger and his life.
His last few years of life were in and out of the hospital at least 10~15 days a month, sometimes more. Two weeks before he passed away, I spoke with him on the phone, and even then he managed to tell jokes about life.
I know he left this world happily; he refused to allow anything or anyone to hold him down, even his severe illnesses. He was definitely a model to look up when it comes to not allowing any situation to keep you from moving forward in life.
I will forever miss his smile and his love for life. My cousin Roger knew the true meaning of the phrase “live, love and laugh”.
1.The author believes that Roger .
A. was a foolish man
B. was rich in spirit
C. had a healthy body

The more people I meet, the more I love my dog. Every day I am reminded why I love him so much.
Three weeks before Christmas in 2008 at about 2:00 in the morning, my dog woke us up out of a sound sleep because someone was knocking at our door. He barked in front of me as if to protect me from the stranger who was knocking. My husband answered, and it was a local police officer telling us that my father-in-law had called the police because he forgot our number. My mother-in-law was suffering from a brain disease and was in the hospital. We thanked the officer and raced to the hospital. We would have taken him, but the hospital would consider him to be a dirty pet.
After visiting the hospital we drove home and hugged our dog once more. At this point it was unlikely that little dog remembered waking us up. What he did remember was that we left him alone for several hours and he missed us. He thought we missed him, too, so he greeted us at the door with his tail wagging (摇摆).
Someone tried to break in our house that summer, but, once again, our little dog saved the day. Our curtains were damaged, but no one got in. When I got home from work, I found parts of my curtains lying on the floor. We called the police and the officer said that he did a great job.
My dog is a loving sweet dog who just wants some attention. I worked with him for months and now he sits, dances, sings, shakes hands, and so much more. The best part is he looks out for me as much as I look out for him.
My husband says the dog is spoiled (宠坏的); I say he finally has a loving home.
1.The author’s dog woke her up to tell her that _____.
A. her mother-in-law was ill

A. The dog saved the author.

For you, the “Clear and Bright” day that falls in every April might be no more than just another holiday- the fact that it comes with three days off school matters to most students much more than the fact that it is part of the 24 solar terms.
But the UNESCO has recognized the importance of the 24 solar terms. This ancient system that Chinese people have used to keep track of the time of year was added to the UNESCO list of Intangible (非物质的) Cultural Heritage of Humanity on Nov. 30, 2016.
To be fair, the terms do sound old; they were invented thousands of years ago to offer weather information for agricultural activities. But the truth is that they still have an influence on our lives today, even if we don’t realize it most of the time.
For starters, you may have heard your mon say, “The sanfu days are almost over. The heat won’t be here for long.” The snafu days are a period of time that talls in summer, somewhere between Minor Heat (in July) and Autumn Equinox (in September). The coldest days, or the sanjiu days, are similar. They cover the 27 days following Winter Solstice
In some places, solar terms guide people’s lives through special foods, cultural events and healthy living tips. For example, people from northern China are in the habit of eating dumpling on the day of Winter Solstice. And on Start of Autumn, some treat themselves to a big feast, especially of meat, something they call “putting on autumn weight”, or tieqiubiao.
But no matter how differently people celebrate the 24 solar terms, they have been here for a long time and could last forever.
According to Chinese writer and academic Yu Shicun, unlike many other examples of intangible cultural heritage - Peking Opera and Chinese Zhusuan (knowledge and practices of mathematical calculation through the abacus), for example – the solar terms are neither regional nor a hype of art or skill. Instead, the system is a philosophy of time, which applies to everything. And this means they are unlikely to die out.
1.Most students think the “Clear and Bright” is important mostly because ________.
A. it is a holiday with days off school
B. it is a part of the 24 solar terms
C. it is used to keep track of the time of year
D. it belongs to Intangible Cultural Heritage
2.What can we infer from the article?
A. The sanfu days usually fall between June and September.
B. The 24 solar terms decide people’s daily habits by informing them of the weather.
C. People still depend on the 24 solar terms when they arrange agricultural activities.
D. There are many Chinese customs related to the 24 solar terms.
3.Which of the following would Yu Shicun agree with?
A. It is their long history that makes the solar terms so important.
B. The solar terms show ancient wisdom about ideas of time.
C. The solar terms show how important it is for Chinese people to keep up old traditions.
D. The solar terms share a lot in common with other examples of intangible cultural heritage.
4.The main purpose of the article is to ________.
A. describe the functions of the 24 solar terms
B. encourage people to celebrate the 24 solar terms
C. explain the influence and wisdom of the 24 solar terms
D. celebrate the 24 solar terms being recognized by UNESCO
