began to grow up that winter night when my parents and i were returning from my aunts house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for america. we were on the bus then. i was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. i remember that i could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which i listened every morning.i do not remember myself crying for this reason again. in fact, i think i cried very little when i was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. when we were leaving i thought about all the places i was going to seethe strange and magical places i had known only from books and pictures. the country i was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then.the four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea did not come to me at once. for the first two years in new york i was really losthaving to study in three schools as a result of family moves. i did not quite know what i was or what i should be. mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me. some time passed before my stepfather and i got used to each other. i was often sad, and saw no end to “the hard times”my responsibilities in the family increased a lot since i knew english better than everyone else at home. i wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with immigration officers, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives.from my experiences i have learned one important rule：almost all common troubles eventually go away！something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little！i believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy.21upon leaving for america the author felt _.aconfused bexcited cworried damazed22for the first two years in new york, the author _.aoften lost her way bdid not think about her futurecstudied in three different schools dgot on well with her stepfather23what can we learn about the author from paragraph 4?ashe worked as a translator. bshe attended a lot of job interviews.cshe paid telephone bills for her family.dshe helped her family with her english.24the author believes that _.aher future will be free from troubles bit is difficult to learn to become patientcthere are more good things than bad thingsdgood things will happen if one keeps tryingb i was 9 years when i found out my father was ill. it was 1994, but i can remember my mothers words as if it were yesterday, “kerrel, i dont want you to take food from your father, because he has aids. be very careful when you are around him.”aids wasnt something we talked about in my country when i was growing up. from then on, i knew that this would be a family secret. my parents were not together anymore, and my dad lived alone. for a while, he could take care of himself. but when i was 12, his condition worsened. my fathers other children lived far away, so it fell to me to look after him.we couldnt afford all the necessary medical care for him, and because dad was unable to work.i would sit in class feeling completely lost, the teachers words muffled as i tried to figure out how i was going to manage.i did not share my burden with anyone. i had seen how people reacted to aids. kids laughed at classmates who had parents with the disease. and even adults could be cruel. when my father was moved to the hospital, the nurses would leave his food on the bedside table, even though he was too weak to feed himself.i had known that he was going to die, but after so many years of keeping his condition a secret, i was completely unprepared when he reached his final days. sad and hopeless, i called a woman at the nonprofit national aids support. that day, she kept me on the phone for hours. i was so lucky to find someone who cared. she saved my life.i was 15 when my father died. he took his secret away with him, having never spoken about aids to anyone, even me. he didnt want to call attention to aids. i do.25. what does kerrel tell us about her father?a. he had stayed in the hospital since he fell ill.b. he depended on the nurses in his final days.c. he worked hard to pay for his medication.d. he told no one about his disease.26. what can we learn from the underlined sentence?a. kerrel couldnt understand her teacher.b. kerrel had special difficulty in hearing.c. kerrel was too troubled to pay attention to the lesson.d. kerrel was too tired and angry to hear her teachers words.27. why did kerrel write the passage?a. to tell people about the sufferings of her father.b. to show how little people knew about aids.c. to draw peoples attention to aids.d. to remember her father.cdrinking water: bottled or from the tap?in america, people will include a case or two of bottled water when buying the weeks groceries. when they are going to a soccer game or activity, its common for them to grab a cold bottle of water out of the fridge with themin fact, americans buy more bottled water than any other nation in the world, about 29 billion bottles a yearbut

truein the us, the local governments make sure water from the tap is safethere is also growing concern that chemicals in the bottles themselves may go into the waterpeople love the convenience of bottled waterbut maybe if they realized the problems it causes, they would try drinking from a glass at home or carrying water in a reusable steel container instead of plasticsome argue that plastic

before.but just as in face- to- face communication, there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on line. _31_ imagine how youd feel if you were in the other persons shoes.for anything youre about to send: ask yourself, “would i say this to the persons face？” if the answer is no, rewrite and reread. _32_if someone in the chat room is rude to you, your instinct (本能) is to fire back in the same manner. but try not to do so._33_ (logic flow) if it was caused by a disagreement with another member, try to fix the situation by politely discussing it. remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room. _34_ offer advice when asked by newcomers, as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate. when someone makes a mistake, whether its a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer, be kind about it. if its a small mistake, you may not need to say anything. even if you feel strongly about it, think twice before saying anything. having good manners yourself doesnt give you license to correct everyone else. _35_ at the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended.it is not polite to ask others personal questions such as their age, sex and marital status. unless you know the person very well, and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information, dont ask such questions.a. its natural that there are some people who speak rudely or make mistakes online.b. repeat the process till you feel sure that youd feel comfortable saying the words to the persons face.c. everyone was new to the network once.d. the basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated.e. when you send short messages to a person online, you must say
