A couple were having a wedding. All of their friends and family came to see the lovely and all had a wonderful time. The bride was in her white wedding gown and the groom was very handsome. Everyone could tell that the love they had for each other was true.
A few months later, the wife came to the husband with a , “Each of us will write a list of things we find a bit with the other person. Then, we can talk about how we can them and make our lives happier.” The husband agreed. So they went to think of the things that annoyed them about the other.
The next morning, at the breakfast table, they decided they would go over their .
“I’ll start,” said the wife. She took out her list. It had many items on it, enough to fill three pages. In fact, as she started reading the list of the little annoyances, she noticed that tears were starting to appear in her husband's eyes.
“What’s wrong?” she asked. “Nothing.” the husband replied,“ reading your list.”
The wife continued to read until she had read all three to her husband.
“Now, it’s your turn and then we’ll talk about the things on both of our lists.” she said happily.
the husband stated，“I don’t have anything on my list. I think you are the way that you are. I don’t want you to change anything for me.”
The wife by his honesty and the depth of his love for her and his acceptance of her, turned her head and wept.
In life, there are enough times when we are disappointed, depressed and annoyed. We don’t really have to go looking for them. We have a wonderful world that is full of beauty, light and promise.

Last Friday, a couple decided that instead of hosting their friends and family for a traditional feast reception, they would feed the victims from an earthquake-stricken area. Michael and Linda stood behind large food trucks distributing meals to 4,000 homeless people for their wedding reception on the border town of Kilis. The idea came from the bridegroom’s father, Ted, who volunteers for a Turkish relief organization. For the past few years, the organization has distributed daily meals to thousands of people who’ve suffered from natural disasters. He approached a representative of the organization and suggested that the family cover part of the costs of feeding them for the day.
Then he told his son, who was surprised by the suggestion, but soon won over. When he told that to the bride, she was really shocked but finally accepted because in southeastern Turkey there is a real culture of sharing with people in need. They love to share their food, their table and everything they have. And afterwards she was quite amazed about it. So, they arrived at the distribution center on Thursday to spend the day serving food and taking photographs with their grateful recipients (接受者).
On that evening, the newly married couple were still pleased with their decision to quit a personal celebration for one with a greater good. “It’s like sharing a dinner with your friends and family who have this kind of thing on a daily basis or sharing something with people who don't even have the most basic things,” Michael said. “Hopefully, this will also give the start for other wedding dinners to be held here with our brothers and sisters in need.”
1.How did the couple celebrate their wedding?
A. They took photos with the grateful victims.
B. They afforded the entire cost of the day for feeding victims.
C. They shared their happiness with the homeless in Kilis.
D. They treated their friends and relatives to a big dinner.
2.Why did so many people crowd in Kilis?
A. To help distribute free daily meals.
B. To escape the damaging earthquake.
C. To support the organization.
D. To attend Michael and Linda's wedding.
3.What does the underlined word “approached” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. consulted with B. moved towards
C. came across D. took in
4.We can know from the text that ________.
A. Michael doubted if more new couples would follow him

C. Linda adapted the suggestion immediately she heard it
D. Kilis is a place which lies in southeastern Turkey

People around the world have their own ways of celebrating weddings. Now let’s compare Eastern and Western weddings.
Chinese and Indian brides normally wear red dresses and most of the wedding decorations are of the same color. This is because the color red is said to bring good fortune. In many Eastern weddings, especially Chinese weddings, the bride will change into a different dress after the ceremony. White dresses only arrived in modern times because of the influence of Western wedding dress designs.
Western wedding dresses are different. Brides usually wear a wedding dress that is white in color and wear it throughout the whole wedding. Wearing white wedding dresses is said to have started in the 1840s, beginning with Queen Victoria, Queen of Great Britain. There are occasions when brides dress into more comfortable clothing so that they will be able to move more freely during the wedding reception.
Traditional practices are strictly followed for most Western weddings. The couple follow up with any plans they have agreed and decided on to make their special wedding day unique and memorable. Wedding receptions and other celebrations differ among the East and the West, but the concept is still the same. They are held to show gratitude towards family members, friends and guests for being a part of the wedding ceremony.
Another common custom that weddings of the East and the West have is the wearing of the wedding veil(面纱). According to superstitious(迷信的) beliefs, the bride wears a veil to protect her from being seen by evil spirits and the bridesmaids are decoys(诱饵). This is still followed even today.
1.Queen Victoria is said to be the first woman in Britain to ________.
A. have a bridesmaid
B. wear a veil as a bride
C. wear a white wedding dress
D. wear a casual dress for the reception
2.According to superstitious beliefs, having bridesmaids is to ________.
A. protect guests B. comfort brides
C. trick evil spirits D. bring good fortune
3.The passage is mainly developed ________.
A. by time B. by space C. by process D. by comparison

During lunch all my friends were talking about their families’ plans for winter break, and I was a little jealous since my parents couldn’t take a vacation during Christmas week.
I came home from school that day to find a newsletter from the Jewish CommunityCenter, which contained an ad for an “alternative vacation” community-service trip to New Orleans during Christmas week. I wondered whether cleaning neighborhoods destroyed by Hurricane Katrina and sleeping on the floor in a sleeping bag were really the way I wanted to spend Christmas vacation. I sent in an application anyway, went for an interview, and was actually very excited when I was accepted into the program.
We arrived in New Orleans on December 23. First, we had dinner at a pizza place that had been destroyed by the hurricane. The owners told us about what they had gone through to rebuild their homes.
On Christmas Eve, we spent the day removing garbage as part of a beautification project in the Lower Ninth Ward, which was most heavily damaged by Hurricane Katrina.
On Christmas Day, we worked at a center for homeless people. The people really appreciated our work, and we felt like we had made Christmas a little more special for them. My favorite project was helping at an animal rescue center. We walked the animals, cleaned their places, and fed them. Six thousand dogs and cats, separated from their owners, were rescued by that shelter after the hurricane.
When I returned to New York and told my friends about my trip, I realized how ridiculous I had been to be jealous of their Christmas plans. I looked around at my house, my dog, my family and everything I owned and felt really spoiled. All the things I saw in New Orleans, all the amazing people I met and the small ways l was able to contribute to the rebuilding of the city made that week the most memorable vacation I can imagine.
1.What was the author’s first reaction to the community-service trip?
A. He felt upset. B. He was excited.
C. He felt hopeful. D. He was doubtful.
2.Which did the author like most?
A. Removing garbage. B. Helping the homeless.
C. Working with animals. D. Dining with survivors.
3.What can be the best title for the text?
A. The Most Memorable Day B. My Special Christmas Vacation
C. Post-Disaster Reconstruction D. A Big Contribution to Society

At the age of seven, while his friends were spending their allowances on things like candy and toys, Jose Adolfo Quisocola was busy saving money for basic purchases. To try to get his peers（同 龄 人 ） to do the same, the boy from Peru came up with the idea of an eco-bank, the Bartselana
Student Bank, which allows kids of all ages to become financially independent while also helping the environment.
Set up in 2012, the bank is the world’s first bank for kids. To become a member, a kid has to bring in at least 5 kilograms of solid waste and set a savings goal. Once accepted, all bank “partners” are required to deposit at least one additional kilogram of recyclables on a monthly basis and observe other requirements, such as attending financial education and environmental management workshops.
The waste accumulated is sold to local recycling companies, who, thanks to Jose’s efforts, pay a higher-than-market rate for everything brought in by the bank members. The money received is placed in the personal account where they collect until the savings goal is reached. The account holder can then withdraw the money, or choose to leave it and continue to grow for a bigger target. “At the beginning, my teachers thought I was crazy or that a child could not undertake this type of project,” Jose recalls, “They did not understand that we are not the future of the country but its present. Luckily, I had the support of the school headmaster and an assistant in my class.”
The boy’s efforts paid off, and by 2013, the bank had over 200 members, who brought in one ton of recyclable waste. Today, the eco-bank, which now has the support of several local institutions, boasts ten educational centers. They are designed to teach the over 3,000 students, aged 10 to 18 , to become financially independent, use their money wisely, and help the environment.
Not surprisingly, Jose’s efforts have earned him several national and international awards. On November 20, 2018, Jose won Children’s Climate Prize, which comes with a medal and $5,500 in prize money and is given to a child or youth who has accomplished an extraordinary achievement for the climate or environment.
1.Why did Jose set up the bank?
A. To raise money and set up a recycling company.
B. To buy necessities and donate them to needy kids.
C. To save much money and protect the environment.
D. To educate the students and help them win prizes.
2.How can a kid be admitted to the eco-bank?
A. By donating to the eco-bank.
B. By turning in one kilogram of waste in a month.
C. By sending in an application.
D. By presenting a goal and a certain amount of waste.
3.How did the teachers feel about Jose’s program?
A. Doubtful. B. Excited.
C. Moved. D. Worried.
4.What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. How the environment is improved. B. What the project has achieved.
C. How tons of waste has been recycled. D. What support the local institutions get.
