The woman didn’t like us. We didn’t do anything to offend her and she didn’t know us but that didn’t matter. As new female teachers in the Emirati School, we Westerners greeted her every day. Whenever we saw her, she avoided eye contact with us. Eventually, some of us stopped trying to befriend her.
Well after 16 months in the school, we had a secret pal gifting. I drew her name from the glass jar and that meant she was my secret pal. My role was to buy her a gift and say something about her when we publicly acknowledged who our secret pal was.
I bought her a small rose arrangement and asked someone to write a message on it and then sent it to her room. She was so touched. Next day I sent a bottle of shampoo but I wrote the message in English because she needed to know her secret pal was a Westerner before the day of the “big reveal”. I also sent her a fragrant candle.
I had brought a few gifts from Ireland when I returned to the Middle East in September. I decided to gift her a silver coloured bangle.
Then came the day of the “big reveal”. We all gathered in the staff meeting room and everyone was excited. The host said, “Several days ago, when you received your gift, you wrote a few kind words about your secret pal and passed the gift to them.” She taught music in the school so I said, “My secret pal is someone who brings music to our ears every day of the week.” I didn’t even need to say her name because everyone knew exactly who I meant.
She came forward with a huge warm smile. She hugged me and kissed me on both cheeks and graciously accepted my gifts. I think everyone’s understanding of things is subjective, so we should have more communication with people around us.
1.How did the woman respond to the Westerners greetings?
A. She blamed them. B. She kept away from seeing their eyes.
C. She treated them kindly. D. She avoided meeting them again.
2.What was the author supposed to do after knowing the name of her secret friend?
A. Prepare a gift for her. B. Write a speech about her.
C. Find out who it is. D. Chat with her.
3.Why did the author write the message in English in paragraph 3?
A. To show other teachers her identity.
B. To teach the woman some English.
C. To let the woman know her nationality.
D. To make other teachers better understand her intention.
4.What was the woman’s attitude towards the author at last?
A. Friendly. B. Doubtful.
C. Regretful. D. Forgiving.

Ice cream can’t cure cancer or bring back a lost love, but it can make one feel better for a while.

Trying to get him to38 each day was quite a chore as he didn’t want anything. The one thing,39 , that he would ask us to bring him was ice-cream.
One evening, to our 40 , he refused to eat the ice-cream,41 I placed it in a staffroom freezer. A little while later, my son decided he wanted it, so I 42 it for him.
As I passed another ward(病房), a 43 asked, “Are there more where that came from?” When I explained the 44 , she apologized. She then said that she had cancer and could eat very little,45 the occasional ice-cream.
The next evening, I decided to buy two ice-creams. On the way to Dad’s room, I stopped in at the 46 woman’s room, and 47 her the ice-cream I’d bought for her. She was 48 stunned that I had thought of her, and 49 the gift with tears in her eyes. I spoke with her for a few minutes,50 what was happening in my family and listened to her 51 story of pain and suffering. It was apparent that she did not 52 many visitors, and the ice-cream and our short chat meant a great deal to her.
I 53 the gesture a few days later, and this time was 54 with a huge hug.
I never even thought to ask her name, and never saw her again, but it made me realize that an act of 55 can be more rewarding when you give it, rather than receive it.

“Fast fashion” means clothes that are inexpensive but look like the latest designs. One reason for the success of fast fashion is social media. A report by the investment research firm Bernstein found that Millennials—people born in the 1980s and 90s—wanted to wear a variety of clothes in the photos they posted on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. As a result, many businesses that offer trendy, low-cost clothes are growing.
But the situation is changing now. Maxine Bédat, a woman who is in her early 30s, looks in her closet full of clothes, but she has nothing to wear. She says she hates always shopping for what is in style. Instead, she says, she wants to buy fewer clothes that she can wear over and over. Other people want the same thing, she says.
So Ms. Bédat and a business partner, Soraya Darabi, started a “slow fashion” clothing company called Zady. “Slow fashion” means clothes that last a long time. They are often classic colors and shapes, and are made from natural materials that are biodegradable over time.
The terms “fast fashion” and “slow fashion” are related to “fast food” and “slow food”: fast food is still popular in the U. S. , but many restaurants increasingly offer higher-quality, more expensive and relaxed meals.
Like slow food, slow fashion also aims to use sources that are good for the environment and workers. Maxine Bédat says people in her generation want to know where their clothes come from and who is making them. To answer Millennials’ demand for information about the products they buy, Ms. Bédat’s company, Zady, includes details about the history of the brands. It also describes the process in which the clothes are made. Ms. Bédat says Zady aims to tell shoppers where their clothes come from, where they go, and how they impact the world.
The international business “H&M” is answering Millennials’ demands in another way. It has created a recycling program for clothes. Shoppers who bring clothes they no longer want to H&M stores can receive a discount on new things they buy. An H&M spokesperson says, “We have a clear vision to avoid and minimize waste that goes into landfills.”
1.What’s the attitude of some Millennials towards fast fashion now?
A. Crazy. B. Tired. C. Supportive. D. Doubtful.
2.“Slow food” is mentioned in the text to tell us ________.
A. it is better than fast food B. it is the healthiest food
C. why slow fashion comes now D. why people like fast fashion
3.What can be learned from the program of H&M in the last paragraph?
A. It can help the environment. B. It does good to people’s health.
C. It can help change people’s lives most. D. It will take the lead in the latest fashion.
4.What is the best title of the text?
A. What Is out of Fashion B. Fast Fashion Is Not Fast
C. Slow Fashion Is in Fashion. D. Fast Fashion, Good or Bad
