It had been a long winter． Bitter cold， snowy days had hit us again and again． On the warmer days there had been little sunshine， but only cold， icy rain． The sun had become such a rare sight that I had to look at a picture of it on my wall calendar from time to time to remember what it looked like． The grass had remained brown and dormant（潜伏的）in the grassland． My own backyard had turned into a muddy mess that tried to steal the shoes right off my feet as I walked on it． My heart ached and longed for spring， and my own good cheer had trouble rising up against the continuous， cold， gray days．

The rain poured down on me as I walked my dogs， holding their leashes in my icy fingers． I looked up at the sky hoping to see the sun smiling down with its warm， golden face． But it was no use． It was then， however， that I saw it． It wasn't the smiling face of the sun in the sky but a little， yellow face peeking（微露出） through the mud． It was a tiny flower， and it filled my heart with hope and joy． I smiled and thanked God for this little sign that winter would soon be over and that spring would arrive． I felt my good cheer rising up at last and I promised God that I would share it with everyone I could．

One day that tiny flower's seeds will fill the grassland with little， yellow faces smiling up from the ground． Its work will make this world a better and more beautiful place． May we all do the same． May we all shine our light and share our love even on the coldest and grayest days． May we all help to share a bit of spring in winter． May we all work to make this world better and brighter even when it is at its darkest．

If you rent an apartment in Beijing, you also rent the landlord or landlady for at least a year. It's important you find a good match because you have to deal with them in the long term. For me, it was love at first sight with the elderly couple who owns my apartment.

It was quite a tough trying to find the right apartment when I first arrived in Beijing. The apartments were either unsuitable or I find fault with the owners who looked indifferent at best and unfriendly at worst. But that all changed when the renting agent's car stopped in front of a hutong house in the heart of the capital.

I saw an elderly couple, in their 70s perhaps, waving to me. They were warm and welcoming at first glance, and when I saw them attentively hanging up the curtains in what would become my bedroom, I was just about sold on the place and the owners!

Chinese people talk about yuanfen, meaning fate that brings people together. Before I met my current landlords, I thought the concept of yuanfen was overrated. A generous landlady who liked me and wanted me to move into her apartment had used the term in reference to me. But it was this lovely couple that changed my mind about the concept.

We have become accustomed to visiting each other at home. The couple's apartment is lovingly decorated, boasting a recent wedding photo of themselves taken in bridal wear. The landlord likes to smoke and sip tea, while the landlady takes great pride in her appearance.

After three years, I dare say they treat me a bit like a “daughter”, despite having two grown sons, one of them close by. They give me gifts of tea or clothes, and I bring them souvenirs from my trips. A match made in heaven, indeed!

1.How did the author feel about renting an apartment in Beijing?

A. It was a piece of cake.

B. There were lots of unfriendly owners.

D. It was not so easy to find a suitable apartment.

2.What did the elderly couple do when they first met the author?

A. They looked indifferent and find fault with the author.

B. They gave a warm welcome and took good care of the house.

C. They liked the author and wanted her to move into their apartment.

D. They were nice and gave her gifts of tea or clothes.

3.Which one is correct about the elderly couple?

A. They are newly married.　　 B. They are nice and easy to get along with.

C. They love drinking tea.　　 D. They live together with their two sons.

4.Which one is the best title for this text?

C. A lovely couple　　 D. Heaven on earth
