A story tells that a senior villager led some other villagers carrying salt day and night to a town in order to trade rice as food the winter. One night they camped in a wilderness with a starry sky above. The senior villager, obeying the tradition passed down from forefathers, took out three blocks of salt and threw them into the campfire, probably to predict the changes of weather in the mountains. All eagerly waited for the old man's" weather report":if the salt in the fire produced crackling sound, they would have good weather in store;if no sound was produced, it then meant the good weather would soon end and a storm would come at any moment. The senior villager looked serious. The salt in the campfire made no sound at all. Convinced by this bad sign, he urged (催促) the whole team to set out immediately after daybreak. A young man in the group, however, insisted that they should not start in such a hurry, considering it superstitious to" forecast weather by using salt. It was not until the next afternoon that the young man caught up on the wisdom of the old man when the weather suddenly changed, with cold winds blowing and a snowstorm raging. In fact, the method used by the clan head could be well explained by modem science:whether or not salt produces sound in campfire depends on air humidity (湿度).That is to say, when a storm approaches, due to high humidity, the dampened salt blocks will not produce any sound in fire. |

It seems that beauty and women are twins. You are joking? No, I do not. Observe for yourself Ads on fashion TV screens, radio programs, magazines, newspapers, and the streets. Whether they have realized it or not, women are surrounded (包围) by a sea of fashion. They are taught to think that without beautiful clothes they will grow old and lose their charm. So who dares to neglect dressing up at the cost of their appearance and youth? But I do not agree with the opinion that women have to show their beauty through their looks. The richness of their minds proves to be more beautiful and attractive than their looks. A woman who has experienced many troubles and may be called"aunt" or "granny" can still keep up her beauty if she has such excellent qualities as knowledge, ability, a kind heart, great courage, concern for others, etc. In addition, old and young, beautiful and ugly are relative concept. People who keep a young mind will never feel old. Interested in new things and eager to learn more, they keep up with the tide. Plainly (简朴地) dressed women may have a type of beauty that is pure and real. Reading and learning is the best way to keep one youthful. Good books ale rich soil which can feed the flower of one's heart and looks. |
1. According to the first paragraph, why are women caught by a sea of fashion? |
A. Because they are rich. B. Because they are taught to follow any fashion. C. Because they don't dare to look attractive. D. Because they think that they will look youthful and charming with beautiful clothes. |

A. The richness of women's minds proves to be more beautiful than their looks. B. A woman who may be called "aunt" is no longer beautiful. C. A woman who has experienced many troubles may still keep up her beauty. D. It is not necessary for women to show their beauty though their beautiful clothes. |

Sir, The majority(=Most) of your readers must have been surprised and shocked to read a letter from Mr.R. Hogg, published in last Wednesday's Herald. Mr. Hogg seems to think that his own convenience and that of motorists in general are the only things that matter in our city. I would have supported Mr. Hogg if he had just made suggestions to improve the situation. No doubt his problems would be partly solved if the local government built a multi-storey car park in the city center, instead of encouraging motorists to use public transport. All the same, judging from the tone of Mr. Hogg's letter, I suspect that motorists who are so careless of pedestrians' (行人) safety that they would rather park their ears on the pavement than hold up the traffic would probably be too lazy to use a multi-storey car park if they had to walk a few hundred yards to their destination afterwards. My main reason for writing, however, is much more important. Does Mr.Hogg realize that, according to figures (数字) showed by the Department of Transport,13,000 people were knocked down in Britain last year because of ears being illegally parked either on the pavement or on crossings? In fact, although the total pedestrian casualty (伤亡事故) rate has fallen over the last ten years, there has been an increase in accidents caused when pedestrians have to step out into the mad to avoid parked cars on the pavement and cannot see oncoming traffic. I cannot share Mr. Hogg's view that the government have paid little attention to "long-suffering motorists" :and I think the punishment for dangerous parking should be made severe enough to stop all motorists from breaking the law in this way. A WALKER, Proudfoot Lane,Carchester |
1. The letter above is written in answer to the letter by _____. |
A. art editor B. a certain Mr.R.Hogg C. some readers D. some motorists |
2. The topic for the two letters is _____. |
A. parking problems in the city center B. building a multi-storey car park in the city center C. public transport D. the increase in accidents caused by parked cars on the pavement |
3. What Mr.A.Walker does want to make known in his letter is that _____. |
A. the total pedestrian casualty rate has fallen B. careless parking may cause serious traffic accidents C. the convenience of motorists in general matters much D. the safety of pedestrians matters lithe |
4. In Mr.A. Walker's opinion, severer punishment should be given to _____. |
A. all the careless motorists B. all the law breakers C. all who step out into the road D. all who do dangerous parking |
