Here are a few of our favorite entries so far in our “Your Life: The Reader’s Digest Version” contest. After reading these, head over to Facebook and submit (提交) your own story about a special moment or lesson that shaped your life.

“There’s Always a John”

By Darla Boyd

My first year of teaching, there was a kid named John in my class. John was difficult to control and he nearly drove me crazy. While talking about him one day, an old teacher put his hand on my shoulder and said, “There will always be a John. Your job is to lean, to discover what make him different and help him grow better.” The next year, there was indeed another John. In the last 20 years, I’ve learned to enjoy all the kids like John. That advice taught me that there is something to appreciate in everyone.

“An Early Key Lesson”

By Elaine West

Before I began my first teaching job, my mother, a teacher of 30 years, gave me a very special gift, five simple words that have had an effect on my entire life: “Make friends with the janitor (門衛(wèi)).” Her wisdom taught me the respect for all types of characters and continue to enrich my life to this day. Just five little words but what an impact they can have when you take them to heart.

“Raising Mommy”

By Jan Davis

Being a mother can always present challenges and rewards. Someone told me early in my parenting career that “Children will teach you everything you need to know”. Being a mother is being raised. Our children become our advisers. Their dreams become our professors, as we are taking notes carefully. The sounds of their laughter and smiles on their faces are a great reward to us or bring us great joy. Their tears remind us that it is okay to fail, wipe the tears away and try again.

1.What did the old teacher mean by saying “There will always be a John”?

A. There are always difficult students like John.

B. John will always be an ordinary student.

C. It is important to change John.

D. John is a very common name.

2.What did Elaine West’s mother advise her to do?

A. Don’t treat students differently.

B. Take care of janitors.

C. Respect people from different backgrounds.

D. Don’t judge people by appearance.

3.Which of the following would Jan Davis most probably agree with?

A. A mother should be given more care.

B. A mother improves herself greatly in parenting.

C. Being a mother has more challenges than rewards.

D. Children should realize the dreams of their parents.

4.The text is most probably a(n) .

A. notice inviting contributions. B. introduction to a contest.

C. ad for three new books. D. poster about a lecture.

The Eurotunnel is a tunnel(隧道) which crosses the Channel under the sea, linking France and the UK. It is about 50.5 km long and 38km lies under the seabed. There are trains which carry passengers and cars, and others which carry carriages or other heavier vehicles(車輛), as well as goods.

The construction of the tunnel started in 1986, with a cost of almost 10 billion pounds. It was opened in 1994 but was not financially successful until 2007, because of the high interest rates (利率) the company had to pay the banks, as well as low earnings from passengers and goods.

The Eurotunnel is a very convenient way of traveling between the two countries as the journey is quick (less than one hour), cheap, and comfortable. You can go with your car, motorbike or bike. The tunnel operates every day, round the clock. At the busiest times there are up to three shuttle departures (班次) per hour. There are facilities(設(shè)施)for disabled passengers and for babies at the two terminals (終點(diǎn)站).

The Eurotunnel, also commonly known as the Channel Tunnel, Eurochannel and Eurochunnel is environmentally friendly. It perfects its sources of energy through its use of renewable energy with the result that, by 2008, it had reduced its greenhouse gas emissions(排量) by 45%. In addition, 50% of the waste produced is recycled.

The future of the Eurotunnel seems promising, although some people who have the fear of enclosed(與外界隔絕的)spaces will never use this type of transportation. There have been some problems with snow storms like the one in the winter of the 2009 which have made the services stop for a period of time, leaving passengers in the tunnel for more than 15 hours without light, heating, food or drink, inside an unmoving train under the sea. Some of the passengers reacted very badly and decided not to use this means of transport again.

1.Why was the Eurotunnel not financially successful at first? ______.

A. It was free for passing trains

B. Many people disliked it

C. Its operating cost was very high

D. It was heavily in debt

2.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? ______.

A. The wonderful design of the Eurotunnel

B. A traveling guide to the Eurotunnel

C. The advantages of the Eurotunnel

D. An introduction of the Eurotunnel’s equipment

3.We can learn from the text that the Eurotunnel ______.

A. used environmentally friendly energy

B. was completely built under the seabed

C. was designed for passenger trains only

D. operated successfully without any accident

4.What is the author’s attitude towards the Eurotunnel? ______.

A. Cautious B. Optimistic

C. Negative D. Doubtful
