On Diwali, we were on a vacation in Dubai and having a good time and lots of fun. One day, we were visiting Abu Dhabi, traveling with a few passengers in a bus. At our first stop, we got out to take some pictures. At our second stop, we noticed that we had forgotten our shoulder bag at first stop. The worst part was that our passports, visas, hotel booking papers, itinerary…everything was inside that bag and we were very panicky, as we had to return to India in 2 days.
During this process of searching for our bags we came into contact with so many strangers whom we found to be really concerned and helpful with our situation.
The tour guide and the bus driver helped us to locate a cab so that we could travel back the first destination to find our bag.
The cab driver helped us in so many ways. He gave us his mobile phone so that we could contact everyone. He took us to a mosque near the first destination hoping that a cleaner might have found a bag. He took us to the nearest police station and helped us in communication with the policeman, who only spoke Arabic.
A policeman, who searched through everything in the lost and found department.
A local man, who actually found our bag, checked the bag and found a number to the travel agency. He informed them and sent his driver to a common destination from where we could get our bag back.
On that day, there was real panic inside me and I was constantly thinking of what would happen next? How will I find my bag? What will happen to us without our passports and visas? In such a mind set I was not able to say a proper THANK YOU to all those persons who helped us in such challenging situation.
I don't even know their names. I will never be able to forget their faces and their kindness. The world needs more humans like them and I decided to try to become one of them. I salute all those strangers and well-wishes for their acts of kindness.

Having spent two and a half years in China over several visits, I don’t remember ever going through a phase we in the United States call “cultural shock”. This period of difficulty in adjusting to a new culture would probably have set in during my semester at Peking University. Of course, this is not to say that I didn’t notice any differences between the American and Chinese cultures upon my arrival at Peking University, I did notice the differences. Looking back, I remember one of the first differences I noticed: Chinese universities are surrounded by walls.
To an American, this is one of the most striking aspects of a Chinese university which immediately sets it apart from an American campus. Having grown up in the United States, I had never seen a university surrounded by high, cement(水泥) walls. My idea of a university, based on having seen scores of them in different states of the U.S., was a place of life and learning, an inseparable part of the community in which it was located, open not only to the students of the school itself, but also fully accessible to students from other schools and to the broader public.
My idea of a university was that it was a center of cultural life, a resource for the entire community. In all my twenty-one years, it had never occurred to me that a school would have a wall around it. Walls enclose and separate; schools expand and integrate(合并). The very idea seemed fundamentally incompatible. I asked a Chinese friend if all Chinese universities have walls around them. “You know, I have never really thought about it. I guess so. I guess all Chinese schools have walls around them, not just universities.” “Why?” I asked, “What’s the point?” “I don’t know. To protect us, I suppose.” “From whom?” “I don’t know. Don’t you have walls around your schools in the United States?” I thought carefully before answering. “No, I’ve never seen or heard of a university encircled by a wall.” My Chinese friend seemed puzzled. Walls around schools came to strike me as more than just an architectural difference between the United States and China. As China continues to open up to the outside world, these walls seem increasingly out of place.
1.The author felt strange about Chinese culture when he ___________.
A. studied in Peking University
B. talked with his friends about the walls
C. experienced the “cultural shock” at his arrival
D. spent two and a half years in China over several visits
2.In the author’s opinion, a university is a place ___________.
A. where only students can come to study
B. which is similar everywhere in the world
C. that should be surrounded by high cement walls
D. that is an inseparable part of and a resource for the community
3.What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph probably mean?
A. The two ideas are fundamental.
B. The two ideas are basically different.
C. The two ideas about “school” and “wall” are suitable.
D. The two ideas about “school” and “wall” are conflicting.
4.What did the author’s friend feel about the walls around universities?
A. He thought it a good idea to have walls encircling schools.
B. He was shocked that American universities are not enclosed.
C. He thought they were necessary to protect students from being hurt.
D. He thought the difference between two countries is only architectural styles.
5.We can infer from the passage that the author thinks _____________.
A. walls are really useful in the universities
B. he can never really understand the Chinese culture
C. Chinese universities should work as public scenic spots
D. walls around the universities are inappropriate in an open China

John was part of my childhood growing up in the 1970s and a link to sunny, fun-filled days spent on the beach at Bangor in Northern Ireland where we went for our summer holidays. To many, he was a mystery. Every afternoon John would wander to the end of the pier (码头) where he fed the seagulls and delighted in the sound of their excited cries as they flew around his head.
Often I asked my family questions regarding John. Eventually I gave up as no one could tell me anything about him. As I grew up, my visits to the beach became less frequent, and my memories of John buried in a child's imagination.
Last year memories came flooding back as I walked along the coastline, where I noticed a lady feeding the seagulls on the pier, and I decided to introduce myself. Then I came to know that the lady was John's daughter, and after John left this world she carried out the ritual, which had held such importance for her father.
In some strange way I felt we shared a bond, each needing to remember. In return, Lucy told me of John's life, his days in the British Navy during World War I and how he almost lost hope when his ship was attacked by a German U-boat in the North Sea and he found himself in a lifeboat with five others.
Close to death, he thought he heard the sound of wings. He put up his hands, only to catch a seagull that had landed on the side of the boat. The seagull saved the lives of the six men as it was used to catch fish, which kept them alive until they reach land. This period of John's life was one he never talked about. But the ritual he first performed as a young man remained a part of him until he died.
Now I visit Lucy as often as I can, just to chat or very often walk along the beach to the pier end. We enjoy the comfortable silence, each lost in special memories.
1.Seeing John feeding the seagulls, the author might feel ______.
A.proud B.worried
C.curious D.guilty
2.The underlined word ''ritual" in the third paragraph can be replaced by ______.
A.law B.tradition
C.interest D.procedure
3.We can infer from the text that John ______.
A.once served in both World Wars B.was a man with a grateful heart
C.spent his childhood in Bangor D.joined the navy in the 1970s
4.What does the author mainly tell us in the text?
A.Her thanks to a seagull that saved her life.
B.The story of how she made friends with a lady.
C.Her childhood spent on the beach at Bangor.
D.Her memories of a man who fed seagulls.

The 2013 Iron—Man Match took place on a cold and windy day in Lake Placid.While my dad had spent months training,nothing could have prepared him for what he met on that day.
My entire family was there;however,I was supporting him from my summer camp,where I tracked him online.By 9:00 a.m.,my eyes were fixed on a dot on a screen that represented my father and his progress.He was making steady progress on the bike trail until all of,a sudden I saw his dot stop moving.I assumed this was a technical fault.After all,Camp Monroe Was not known for its Wi-Fi.Actually a gust of wind had caused a huge tent to blow into him,knocking him to the roadside.
At the hospital,he discovered he had four broken bones.While still recovering from his accident,he was dealt a second blow.He was diagnosed(诊断)with cancer and,although still weak from his injuries,had to suffer from accelerated radiation and surgery.His athletic future was looking more and more bare.

Now,I believe in the power of determination to beat the odds,regardless of the circumstance.Today,because of my dad,I believe in setting my own rules,and not letting others command what I can or cannot do.And I believe that life is just like that little dot;it can be gone in a second,so we must make every moment count.

C. The technical fault. D. Terrible road conditions.
