         There are some stories behind English words.
         You've spent a lot of time studying how to use English in a proper way. But have you ever wondered
    why English speakers say some of the things they say? For example, why do they say "an easy task" is "a
    piece of cake"? Why do the two letters "OK" means "all right"?
         Many English words and phrases have stories behind them. Sometimes these stories can help us look
    back into old western history. Let's take a look at a few of the original * common English words and phrases:
          OK
         "OK" was an American who lived in the 19th century. His name was "Old Kinderhook". In one year he was
    trying to take the place of the leader of his town. His supporters went around the town shouting" OK \ OK \"
    The supporters thought their future leader was" all right". The expression caught on, and now if something is
    "all right", people like to say"OK"
         Boss
         Is your boss nice to you? If not, just be glad you weren't living in the old times. Back to that time, bosses
    could do anything bad to their men and could even beat* them! That explains why the word "boss" comes from
    an old German word meaning"to beat".
         A piece of cake
         A famous American writer named Ogden Nash lived in the 1930s. Many readers enjoyed his poems and
    wrote them down in their notebooks. In one of his poems, Nash wrote," Her picture's in the papers now, and
    life's a piece of cake." His readers found these words interesting and quickly wrote them down. They thought
    that if one picture in a newspaper could make you famous, wouldn't life be easy?
         For nearly 70 years, "a piece of cake" has meant any task or activity that is easy.
    1. Some of English words can tell us stories about _________.
    A. how people learned English
    B. how English speakers create the words
    C. how people spoke English
    D. how people taught others to speak English
    2. The word "boss" in old German means"_________".
    A. to work
    B. to help
    C. to beat
    D. to kill
    3. "OK" comes from "_________".
    A. Old King
    B. Old Kindman
    C. Old Kinderhook
    D. Old Mcdonald
    4. In this passage "a piece of cake" means "_________".
    A. an easy task or activity
    B. a difficult task or activity
    C. a simple newspaper to read
    D. a famous picture in a newspaper

         Gloria arrived in Barbados on 26 January, 2008 after rowing * across the Atlantic for three months
    and a half. Gloria was in one of 36 small wooden rowing boats that set off on 7 October, 2007 from Tenerife
    Island on the Atlantic Rowing Challenge Race. Each boat was exactly the same design and each one had food
    for the journey. There were two people in each boat and their challenge was to row across the Atlantic, a
    journey of about 3,360 kilometers.
         Gloria began the journey with her husband in a small boat. However, after 14 days he became very afraid
    of the huge ocean and was not able to go on, so he left her with the help of a helping boat. This did not make
    Gloria give up. Instead, she decided that she would continue by herself. So, for the next hundred days, she
    rowed her small boat alone and fought against the waves and the winds, and her own fears.
         When she finally arrived in Barbados, Gloria was not willing to leave her boat although her husband and
    family were there to greet her. She sat so long in the boat that she could hardly stand, her husband had to
    carry her off the boat. After that, the first thing she did was to drink a toast  to her small boat, the very
    special lady. This lady carried her safely through many storms on her long journey and she loved it.
         Gloria is really a brave woman. She has become the tenth woman in the world to row across the Atlantic.
    Like the others, she has experienced great joys and terrible things. But a brave person is not always brave,
    "Sometimes I wanted more than anything to be warm and dry in bed and safe from the storm around me.
    I wanted to stop being brave," she said.
    1. When did Gloria's husband leave her? It was _________.
    A. on 7 October, 2007
    B. on 26 January, 2008
    C. on 21 October, 2007
    D. on 12 January, 2008
    2. When she reached Barbados, _________.
    A. Gloria thanked her husband
    B. Gloria felt sad to leave her boat
    C. Gloria jumped off her boat quickly
    D. everyone drank a toast to Gloria
    3. What does "the very special lady" mean?_________.
    A. Gloria's boat
    B. Gloria's mother
    C. Gloria herself
    D. Gloria's motherland
    4. Which of the following is similar in meaning to the sentence "A brave person is not always brave."?
    A. She was not willing to leave her boat, her close friend
    B. Her husband became very afraid of the huge ocean and left her
    C. She fought against the big waves and strong winds, and her own fears
    D. Sometimes she wanted to be warm and dry and to stop being brave
    5. Why does the writer think that Gloria is really brave? Because _________.
    A. she got to Barbados successfully with her husband
    B. she took part in the Atlantic Rowing Challenge Race
    C. she arrived at Barbados after rowing 3,360 kilometers
    D. she didn't need her husband at all during the journey
