Some people are lucky enough to be born with a good sense of direction and even if they have only visited a place once, they will be able to find it again years later.

　I am one of those unlucky people who have poor sense of direction and I may have visited a place time after time but I still get lost on my way there. When I was young I was so shy that I never dared ask complete strangers the way and so I used to wander round in circles and hope that by some chance I would get to the place I was heading for.

　I am no longer too shy to ask people for direction, but I often receive replies that puzzle me. Often people do not like to admit（承认）that they didn’t know their hometown and will insist on telling you the way, even if they do not know it; others, who are anxious to prove that they know their hometown very well, will give you a long list of directions which you can not possibly hope to remember, and still others do not seem to be able to tell between their left and their right and you find in the end that you are going in the opposite（相反的）direction to that in which you should be going.

　If anyone ever asks me the way to somewhere, I always tell them I am a stranger to the town in order to avoid giving them wrong direction but even this can have embarrassing results.

　Once I was on my way to work when I was stopped by a man who asked me if I would direct him the way to the Sunlight Building. I gave my usual reply, but I had not walked on a few steps when I realized that he had asked for directions to my office building. However, at this point, I decide it was too late to turn back and search for him out of the crowd behind me as I was going to meet with someone at the office and I did not want to keep him waiting.

　Imagine my embarrassment when my secretary showed in the very man who had asked for directions of my office and his astonishment when he recognized me as the person he had asked.

1.What is the writer going to do when someone asks him for direction?

2.Why did the writer consider himself to be an unlucky dog?

3.How did the visitor feel when he was showed into the very room?

4.Who showed the right way to the interviewee according to the passage?

With Christmas soon approaching, many young people are buying gifts and making dinner reservations, but Geng Yingying is thinking about a serious subject – death.

Geng is a healthy 21-year-old student at Northwest Normal University in Gansu Province. She volunteered to donate（捐赠）her body for medical research and education because she wants to leave something to the world after her death. She first learned about body donation through a volunteer activity in 2016. Not long after that, one of her friends died in an accident. "I realized life is vulnerable（脆弱）and I wanted to make it more meaningful." she said.

Geng is one of a growing number of young Chinese who have registered（注册）as voluntary body donors in recent years. The number of registered volunteers for body and organ donations was over 2，610 in Gansu by November 20, compared with just 80 in 2014, according to the statistics released by the local Red Cross Society.

In Beijing, more than 21,100 people applied to donate their cadavers（遗体）by the end of 2017since the city started a body donation registry in 1999.So far, over 2,600 donations have been used for medical research and education, according to the Beijing Red Cross Society.

Zhan Haibing is a postgraduate student in the School of Public Health at Lanzhou University. He refers to cadavers as "silent teachers." "Silent teachers have played an irreplaceable role in medical education and research. They can give medical students a real understanding of human bodies．" Zhan said.

China's body donation program started in the early 1980s. Yuan said the traditional belief， lack of knowledge on donation procedures, and failure to obtain support from families of the donors are three main reasons that have long slowed donations.

As the laws and the overall environment for donation continue to improve, and people's attitudes on funeral customs are gradually changing, body donations have become more acceptable. People are showing more respect and understanding to the donors.

Meanwhile, many Chinese universities have called on "life education. " They ask their students to participate in volunteer activities in hospitals, funeral parlors, nursing homes and Red Cross societies to better understand the meaning of life.

1.Geng Yingying is referred to as an example ______.

A. to start the topic of the passage

B. to sing a praise of her noble behaviour

C. to warn readers of vulnerable life

D. to introduce her moving story to the readers

2.Which is the main difficulty in making the decision to donate?______

A. New ideas　　 B. Support from families

C. The traditional belief　　 D. Lack of courage

3.We have every reason to believe that ______.

A. Silent teachers play the most important role in helping medical students．

B. Gansu Province is in the lead of body donation in China.

C. Geng Yingying will have a long life for her kindness.

D. Body donation will be more acceptable among young Chinese.

IN China, red is known to be a lucky color. But you may be surprised to know that British culture is also full of the color red. It’s true: Go to Britain and you will see red everywhere.

There are red postboxes on street corners and on the sides of buildings. The British red phone box is famous all over the world. The famous double-decker (双层) bus is red. Red is the color traditionally worn by British soldiers in battle (战争), and there is red in the UK’s Union Jack national flag. Britain even has a famous team of stunt (特技) jet fighters (喷气式战斗机) called “The Red Arrows”.

To go with British culture’s love of red, British nature also features many red animals. A beloved bird is the robin (知更鸟), which has a bright red breast (胸脯). At Christmastime in winter, the bird is commonly found on the greetings cards people send each other. There is also quite a rare animal called the red squirrel (松鼠). Foxes are red, and they used to be hunted by men in red outfits (服装).

But is red considered lucky to British people? A good way to see how a culture looks at a color is to look at the way it uses it in language. The results may surprise you. Even though Britain has a lot of red on its high streets and in its countryside, red is used quite differently as a metaphor (比喻). If someone “sees red”, they are angry. When a person is “red faced”, they are out of breath or blushing (脸红). Red is also a political color: it means a left-winger (blue is the color of the political right). To be “in the red” is to be in debt (someone in credit (存款) is “in the black”).

Look hard enough and you’ll find the color red being used in all countries. For instance the “red heart” symbol (符号) is pretty universal. But whether the British realize it or not, red is everywhere in Britain. It does seem that the country is in love with the color.

1. The article is mainly about ______.

A. the metaphor of red in the English language

B. the preference for red animals in Britain

C. the history of red items in Britain

D. the color red in British culture

2. Someone saying bad words about you behind your back might make you ______.

A. red-faced　　　　　 B. see red

C. in the red　　　 D. in the black

3. It can be inferred from the article that ______.

A. red has different meanings depending on the context (情境)

B. the color red is not as popular as it was before in Britain

C. most British people are aware of (知道的) how popular the color red is in British culture

D. British people are often asked to explain the meaning of the color red

4.The main purpose of the article is to ______.

A. compare　　　　　 B. judge　　　　 C. inform　　　 D. argue
