I still remember that day. I was waiting to get some       for shopping in a bank. Among the crowd, I noticed a little boy carrying some sunglasses in one hand and a big bag in      .
The boy was about 10 years old. He was walking around the people inside the       and asked them to buy his sunglasses. But       would buy any from him. He tried from one person to another. From the look on his face, I knew he would not       anyway.
Now, I decided to have a       with him. I went up and asked, “Do you go to school?” He nodded his head. Then I continued, “Why do you       sunglasses?” He said nothing. I gave him $20 and said that I was not in       of the sunglasses but he could keep the money. To my      , his face changed a lot, which is still in my memory today. I didn’t know       to say next. Then he replied, “Either you buy sunglasses or you            back the money. I don’t need your pity.” I felt very          for what I did, and I told him that I would buy two pairs.
I took these sunglasses home and kept       myself, “Did such a young boy need to do it for his self-respect（自尊）?” He could       take the $20 and left. But he chose to sell his sunglasses and get the money not because of others’      . I will remember this lesson forever.

One day I got in a taxi, and we left for the airport. We were driving in the right lane（车道）when, suddenly, a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver stopped his car at once. The tire（轮胎） made a very loud noise, and at the very last moment our car stopped just one inch from the back of the other car.
I was frightened. But then I couldn’t believe what happened next. The driver of the other car, the guy who almost caused a big accident, turned his head and started yelling at us. I couldn’t believe it! But my taxi driver just smiled at the guy. So I asked, “Why did you just do that? This guy almost sent us to hospital.”
This is when my taxi driver taught my what I now call, “The Law of the Rubbush Truck（垃圾车法则）.” He explained that many people are like rubbish trucks. They run around full of rubbish, full of anger and full of bad feelings. As their rubbish piles up, they look for a place to throw it away and sometimes they’ll throw it at you. Don’t take it personally. Just smile, wish them well, and move on. Don’t take their rubbish and spread it to other people at work, at home or on the streets.
Successful people never let rubbish trucks change their moods. Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so love those who love you and pray（祈祷）for those who don’t.

Which of the following is NOT true according to the first paragraph?

The underlined word yelling in the second paragraph means       in Chinese.

Why did the guy get angry so easily?

From the passage, we can tell that the taxi driver is _______.

What does the passage mainly tell us?

I have been very lucky to make many trips to China. Though I have had some trouble with the language, I have never had a problem I couldn’t solve. As a native English speaker（土生土长的说英语的人），I can go almost everywhere in the world and find someone to communicate with. I never thought that someone who speaks only Chinese would have a lot of trouble in my country.
Recently, the King family that I had met in China moved to Canada. I met them at the airport. My wife and I made meals for them and showed them around where we live. Everything seemed to go smoothly for the first two days as we looked for a car for them, showed them the way to different stores and the nearest city, Victoria. Mr. and Mrs King had a two-year-old son and soon we became Nainai (grandmother) and Yeye (grandfather). We were having a good time but we didn’t realize Mr. King can’t speak English.
Luckily, Mrs. King can speak very good English. Many people with Chinese background live near us. In fact, none of them speak Chinese. Mr. King can’t even buy a mobile phone without his wife’s help. He can’t talk to me, of course. By the third day, he felt lonely and worried. And on the fourth day, we decided to take them to a large Chinese community.
Now, we often visit them and they visit us too. Sometimes Mrs. King would still like to live near us but Mr. King cannot. I feel bad because he seems very nice and smart but I can’t talk with him. It seems that neither of us will learn the other’s language because of our ages, maybe we will never have a friendly conversation. But we will think of each other as friends.
The writer doesn’t have any trouble in travelling around the world possibly because _______.

How did the two families feel on the first two days?

Who can’t speak English in this passage?

Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?

What can we infer（推断）from the passage?

Smog（雾霾）is one of the hottest subjects these years. It does great harm to people’s health. The most terrible smog lasted for about a week in February, 2014. It covered 15 percent of the land in northern and central China.
Now, more and more people in China have realized the importance of protecting the environment. They try to save energy by walking or riding to work in their daily life. Cities including Beijing and Shanghai have taken action by controlling the number of cars and closing heavily polluting factories.
Beijing is heavily polluted, so it’s not easy to see blue skies there. But during the APEC summit（亚太经合会议峰会）in November last year, Beijing saw blue skies for a few days. People happily call that “APEC blue”.
“I hope the APEC blue will last, and I believe it will, because China has put great effort into reducing pollution.” said President Xi Jinping during the summit.
The two large countries, China and the USA, produce about 45 percent of the world’s greenhouse gases（温室气体）.On November 12, President Xi Jinping and Obama announced that both countries would work together to cut down CO2 emissions（二氧化碳的排放）. The goal needs everyone’s effort.
回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。
How long did the most terrible smog last in China in February, 2014?

Why is it difficult for Beijing to see blue skies?
