I had to remind him repeatedly that talking without permission (允许) was not allowed. However, he politely apologized (道歉) to me every time I told him not to do it again, “Thank you for telling me, Madam!” But I was used to hearing it many times a day.
One Friday, after working hard on a new idea all week, I felt that the students were edgy (烦躁不安的) with one another. So I asked them to write down the names and the nicest things of other students so that they could find others’ good sides. As the students left the room, they handed me the paper.
That Saturday, I wrote down the name of each student on a piece of paper and listed what everyone else had said about that person. On Monday, I gave each student his or her list. Some of them ran two pages. After reading them, each student was smiling. “I didn’t know others liked me so much!” Rick said.
Many years later, I got a call from Rick’s parents and learned of his death. And then I received a wallet with two pieces of notebook paper. I realized that the pieces of paper were the ones on which I had listed all the good things each of Rick’s classmates had said about him. My eyes were full of tears.

One day, a raven (渡鸦) happened to fly past a lake. Looking at the lake, he saw the most beautiful animal he had ever seen. She was a swan (天鹅) and her feathers (羽毛) were as white as snow. The swan was playing with other birds happily, talking and dancing. And it seemed that the other birds all liked to stay with her. When he looked at his own feathers, they were as black as coal. The raven was very angry with the swan. “How can the swan have such wonderful feathers?” said the raven. What should he do with his feathers? He thought it over and over.
Then, the raven decided that he also wanted to have white feathers like the swan’s. From that day on, the raven began to live like the swan. He moved his home from the woods to the lake. He also started to eat water plants like the swan. He tried his best to talk and dance with the other birds. The most important was that each day, the raven would wash his feathers, hoping that they would turn white. He even went to the nearby rivers and ponds to wash his feathers, because he thought the water in the lakes was not enough for him to wash them. But no matter how hard he washed his feathers, they remained black.
As he only ate water plants, he soon grew thinner and thinner. Not many days later, the raven died.
43. Why was the raven angry with the swan?
A. Because his own feathers were as white as snow.
B. Because the swan did not have black feathers like him.
C. Because the swan had beautiful white feathers.
D. Because the swan lived in the lake with other birds.

45. Why did the raven begin to live like the swan?

C. To eat water plants. D. To have white feathers like the swan.

Most people had never heard of a pet finder before watching the old movie Ace Ventura: Pet Detective. However, real-life pet finders are different from the noisy and funny man Ventura in the movie. They are experts who work very hard and take their jobs very seriously.
Liu Wei, the 35-year-old man from Shanghai, is quite famous in this job. He started his work early. In 2012, he read an article about pet Finders by chance. Liu loves cats and dogs, and he also likes reading mystery stories. So, he decided to have a try. But his choice wasn’t understood by his family. And they didn’t believe someone would want to spend money finding an animal. However, Liu didn’t give up.
Now Liu has a team of 12 people. They have about 30 orders every month. Before he goes out, he asks the pet owners many questions about their lost pets, like name, age, looks, hobbies, health history and others. Then Liu waits in the long grass secretly, checks underground pipes carefully and searches in the parking lots. To find a missing pet, it’s very common for him to walk tens of thousands of steps a day.
So far, Liu has helped more than 1,000 lost cats, dogs, and birds get together again with their owners. “I feel very happy and proud when I finally find a lost pet after working hard for days,” He said.
46. What is Ventura like in the movie?
A. Capable and confident. B. Noisy and funny.
C. Careful and hardworking. D. Serious and shy.
47. Why didn’t Liu Wei’s family support his choice?
A. Because they worried about his health.
B. Because they knew he couldn’t keep on.
C. Because they didn’t want him to be with animals.
D. Because they thought no one would spend money on it.
48. How does Liu Wei feel when he finds a missing pet?
A. Proud. B. Surprised. C. Excited. D. Tired.

Dear Peter,
Thanks for your e-mail. You are interested in the Telling China’s Story activity. Last week, I participated in it. First, we prepared stories about Chinese traditions or heroes. Then, each student shared their story in English. I told the story of Hua Mulan. Everyone listened carefully and asked questions. I was deeply moved by the stories, which showed the wisdom and kindness of Chinese people. Not only did I improve my English, but I also felt prouder of my culture. It was a meaningful experience. I hope you can join us next time!
