While waiting to pick up a friend at the airport in Portland, Oregon, I noticed a man coming toward me carrying two light bags. He stopped right next to me to his family.

First he moved to his youngest son as he laid down his bags. They gave each other a long, loving hug. they separated, I heard the father say, “It’s so good to see you, son. I missed you so much!” His son smiled somewhat shyly and replied softly, “Me, too, Dad!”

Then the man stood up, gazed in the of his oldest son and said, “You’re already quite the young man. I love you very much, Zach!” They too hugged a most loving, tender hug.

After several , he turned to his wife and declared, “I’ve saved the best for last!” and to give his wife the longest, most passionate kiss I remember seeing.

For an instant they me of newlyweds(新婚夫婦), but I knew by the age of their kids that they couldn’t possibly be. I puzzled about it for a moment and gathered my courage to ask, “Wow! How long have you been married?”

“Almost twelve years.” he replied, breaking his gaze from his lovely wife’s face. “Well then, how long have you been away?” I asked. The man turned and looked at me,. “Two whole days”

Two days? I was . By the intensity of the greeting, I had he’d been gone for at least several weeks — if not months. I know my expression me. Hoping to stop our conversation politely and continue with my for my friend, I said almost immediately, “I hope my is still that passionate after twelve years!”

The man suddenly smiling. He looked me straight in the eye, and with power that burned right into my soul, he told me something that left me a person. He told me, “Don’t , friend …decide!” Then with wonderful smile, he and his family turned and left together.

I was still watching that special family walk just out of sight when my friend to me and asked, “What are you looking at?” Without , and with a curious sense of certainty, I replied, “ My future!”

Eating different colored foods can keep you healthy, as well as change your mood and behavior. Here is a list of colors, which can change your life.

Blue/Purple

     Blue is considered to be peaceful and calming and it has the same effect on our health. The blue / purple color in food is due primarily to their anthocyanins which are antioxidants (抗氧化劑) that are particularly heart healthy and may help support healthy blood pressure. Out of all the blue and purple foods available, blueberries are considered to have the highest antioxidant level. An analysis of the latest data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Study found that people who eat purple and blue fruits and vegetables are at a reduced risk for high blood pressure and are less likely to be overweight.

     A food and health expert says that blue and purple color foods can prevent blood mass formation, and they also lower the risk of cancer.

     Foods that contain blue and purple colors are: reddish eggplant (especially the skin), blueberries, blackberries, purple grapes, etc.

Green

     We all know that we should eat green as green symbolizes nature. The green foods are rich in isothiocyanates, which help resist cancer.

     Dr. Ashok Agarwal, a food and nutrition specialist, explains, "They are excellent sources of folic acid, vitamin K, as well as carotene （胡蘿卜素）. Diets high in those above are associated with lowered blood pressure."

     Foods that contain the green color are: broccoli, cabbage, cucumbers, etc.

Red

     Lycopene (番茄紅素) in reddish fruits and vegetables is a powerful antioxidant that has been associated with a reduced risk of some cancers, and also provides protection against heart attacks.    

Dr. Smiths says, "Cooked tomato sauces are associated with greater health benefits as compared with the uncooked version as the heating process allows lycopene to be more easily absorbed by the body. Obtaining the most benefit from food depends on proper selection, storage and cooking of the produce."

     Foods that contain red color are: Tomatoes and tomato products, watermelon, guava, red onions, red chili, red apples, red grapes, cherries, etc.

Orange

     The orange foods are also rich in carotene, which are particularly good antioxidants. These foods are commonly considered eyesight foods because they contain vitamin A.

     "Orange fruits and vegetables also play a part in preventing cancer, particularly of the lungs and stomach. Foods that contain the color orange are: Carrots, mangoes, sweet potatoes, pumpkins, etc.

Who is your role model? Normally the answer to this question would be anyone around you who you find truly inspiring. It could also be someone like J. K. Rowling or Martin Luther King. Jr. , who have proven to be strong and intelligent people.

However, in today’s world, stars are regarded as role models along with the heroes listed above, despite their intentions or actions. Teens attempt to imitate their actions for two major reasons. Firstly, to be fashionable and accepted by popular culture, and secondly because stars’ actions are so well documented by the media that it seems to grab our attention and turns it to following stars’ lives. Much of the reports about stars is shocking and exhibits bad morals or lifestyles that aren’t right for teenagers. In addition, almost everything stars do is described beyond truth to make a shocking story by taking it to the next level.

However, teens must take responsibility for their actions. We can’t always blame stars for influencing us. Only you have control over yourself and only you choose to do something. Our bodies and actions are in the hands of no one else.

Now, who ever said stars are role models? Whether they choose to be or not, stars set examples as soon as they step into the spotlight. With reporters following and recording every move they make, it is impossible not to be watched and then be imitated. These people influence teens whether or not they want to. Why should someone who doesn’t want to be setting an example set one? So，should we look up to them or to people who are true and good role models? It’s our responsibility as teens to know right from wrong, and it’s time for us to take responsibility for our actions. In doing so，we will lean toward those inspiring people that want to be setting an example, and follow in their steps to be like them.

1.According to the first paragraph, _______ can usually be role models.

A. political leaders

B. wealthy writers

C. people inspiring others

D. people with great intelligence

2.What are the major reasons for the teens to imitate stars?

A. Interest in stars’ life and expectation of getting rich.

B. Motivation for being fashionable and inspiration from popular examples.

C. Intentions to gain acceptance and encouragement from stars’ lifestyle.

D. Desires to be stylish and great influence from the mass media.

3.The author writes the passage mainly to advise the teenagers to _______.

A. have a control over their own bodies and actions

B. be responsible for their own choices and behaviors

C. follow fashionable stars’ steps to be more popular

D. choose right role models according to different reports

4.It can be inferred from the passage that _______.

As a professor I have grown accustomed to the opinion regarding American education. We are repeatedly told that American schools are failing, that colleges are not teaching, and that the students of today are not as good as the students of the past.

There are, of course, problems with the education system. Because of economic inequality some schools are significantly better than others and the ideas of equality of education and equality of opportunity are cruel jokes. However, the mere fact that there are some serious problems does not mean that all the dire claims are true.

One stock (陳腐的) claim is that America has fallen behind the world in education in terms of performance on various tests. While the fact that America is behind other countries is a point of concern, there are at least three points worth considering here. The first is the above-mentioned economic inequality which will tend to result in poorer performance when taking the average for America. The second is that many countries have put considerable effort into improving their education systems and hence it is worth considering that America’s decline is also due to the improvement of others. The third is the matter of the measures— do they, in fact, present an accurate picture of the situation? I am not claiming that the data is bad. I am merely raising a reasonable concern about how accurate our picture of education is at this time.

Another stock claim is that American students are doing badly on standardized tests. While there is clearly value in assessment, it is reasonable to consider whether or not such tests are a proper and adequate measure of education. It is also worth considering whether the puzzle with these tests is itself causing damage to education. That is, as teachers teach for the test and students learn for the test, it might be the case that what is being taught is not what should be taught and what is being learned is not what should be learned.

1.According to the professor, many people’s attitude towards American colleges is .

A. negative B. positive C. approving D. indifferent

2.What does the underlined word “dire” in the second paragraph mean?

A. Exact or precise. B. Extremely serious or terrible.

C. Fair or objective.D. Long and boring.

3.Judging by the text ,the claims are centered on .

A. what should be taught in the American classroom

B. fair judgment of American education

C. American students’ performance on tests

D. an accurate picture of American colleges

4.The passage is written mainly to .

A. defend American education

B. show dissatisfaction with American education

C. explain why American students do badly on tests

D. offer advice on American education reform

Most teens can't wait to learn to drive. Not so with me. Driving made me nervous. I didn't get a license until I turned 24 years old. As a result, when I first married, we only had one car and car pooled to work. My husband's hours were different from mine by one hour. I worked earlier. So he dropped me off and went to the diner to drink coffee until work time.

Then, in the afternoons, I leisurely walked the three miles to his work place where I waited in his car, reading a book.

One day while waiting for him, I noticed the most beautiful Cadillac pull in the lot. It was powder blue and sleek looking. The kind of car you dream about. I was busily admiring the car, when I noticed the driver. Honestly, she was probably the prettiest woman I had ever seen off the movie screen.

She pulled into the spot beside our car and it was all I could do not to stare. There was a striking resemblance to Liz Taylor. Jet black hair and alabaster skin. Our eyes made contact and she smiled at me. Her eyes were as blue as the sea, and teeth like an even row of pearls. She was wearing a light blue shirt that just matched her car. Peeking through her long, softly curled hair I could see gold hoop earrings. They had to be gold to shine like that. A couple of minutes later, a nice looking man came out of the building, entered her car, leaned over and kissed her and she drove away.

Sitting there in my jeans, shirt and hair in a pony tail, I wanted to cry. How could some people have it all?

Maybe I would have forgotten about her, but the following week, I saw her again. Then it became almost routine to see her about once a week. She seemed friendly and always waved, flashing a big smile. My envy lingered long after she drove away.

Many nights when sleep evaded me, I would think about the beautiful lady. I wondered if she and her husband ate out, and where they dined, and what she was wearing. I wanted her to get out of the car and let me see her full length. Did she wear really high heeled shoes and pants, or a skirt.

I would get my answers in a couple of weeks.

Sitting in our usual parking lot, I was holding my book, watching her over the top of it. She was waiting and when her husband came to the car, she called to him. They spoke a few words and he opened the car door for her to step out. He took her arm and helped her out of the car. I could see very well as she moved to get out. She was wearing a skirt.

She haltingly walked around to the passenger side very slowly, leaning on a walking cane. Sitting sideways in the car, she lifted one leg with her hands and then the other one. The beautiful lady had a prosthesis on the left leg and a brace on the right leg. I couldn't watch them drive away as the tears were blinding me. For weeks I had envied this woman and her way of life, while I had been able to walk three miles to our car!

When my husband arrived and found me crying, he immediately asked what was wrong. Through my tears, I told him about the beautiful lady. He said he knew her husband and also knew the story. The beautiful lady and her parents were in a car that either stalled or got caught on the railroad tracks and was hit by a train. Both parents were killed and she was severely injured. She was only 12 years old. The railroad made a large settlement with her because the crossing had no signals. He explained her car was specially built for her needs as well as the home.

I prayed for forgiveness all the way home. The lady I thought had everything I didn't. I realized how lucky I was to have my parents, the ability to walk, run or dance through life and many wonderful things money can't buy. I would not have traded places with the beautiful lady for anything

When you meet a person who seems to be much better off than you, don't be fooled.

3. The woman prayed for forgiveness all the way home because_______.

A. She should have known the whole story earlier.

B. She shouldn’t have compared herself with the woman.

C. She shouldn’t have told her husband what she had seen.

D. She shouldn’t have seen the woman getting out of the car.
