W_w w.k*s*5 u.co mMy mother has realized the limitations of her English as well. When I was fifteen, she used to have me call people on phone to pret

18、end I was she . I was forced to ask for information or even to yell at people who had been rude to her. One time I had to call her stockbroker (股票经纪人).I said in an adolescent voice that was not very convincing, “This is Mrs. Tan. And my mother was standing beside me, whispering loudly, “Why he dont

19、send me cheek already two week lone.And then, in perfect English I said : “Im getting rather concerned .You agreed to send the check two weeks ago, but it hasnt arrived.Then she talked more loudly. “What he want? I come to New York tell him front of his boss. And so I turned to the stockbroker again

20、, “I cant tolerate any more excuse. If I dont receive the check immediately , I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week.The next week we ended up in New York. While I was sitting there red-faced, my mother, the real Mrs. Tan, was shouting to his boss in her broken E

21、nglish. W_w w.k*s*5 u.co m When I was a teenager, my mothers broken English embarrassed me. But now, I see it differently. To me, my mothers English is perfectly clear, perfectly natural.

25、orida wetland known as the Everglades is a slow-moving river 80 kilometres wide but only a few centimeters deep. People call the Everglades a “river of grass because sawgrass covers most of it. Sawgrass is not really grass. It is a plant that has leaves edged with tiny sharp teeth that can easily cu

26、t through clothesand skin! Travel in the Everglades is difficult. You cannot walk through shallow water because the sawgrass will cut you. The water is too shallow for regular boats. So, we use an airboat. An airboat is a flat, open boat. Like an airplane, it has a big propeller to move it. The prop

27、eller is fixed on the rear of the boat. It makes a tremendous noise, but it does the job. The boat skims along the waters surface. Although we can still get lost in an airboat, at least we are above the alligators(短吻鳄). While hundreds of different kinds of animals live in the Everglades, the most fa

28、mous is surely the alligator. Once endangered, alligators are now protected within Everglades National Park. Visitors are likely to see them both on land and in water. For a long time, dangers have threatened the Everglades. Around 1900, some people felt this precious wetland should be drained (排干).

29、 They said it was just a big swamp and not good for anything. In the 1920s, there was a land boom in Florida. People wanted to build homes everywhere, including in the Everglades. They built canals, levees (防洪堤) , and other water systems that stopped the rivers flowing into the Everglades. Factories

30、 were built near rivers that flowed into the wetland. These factories dumped poisonous waste that damaged the Everglades ecosystem. People are now working to preserve the Everglades National Park for the future. Right now, one big problem is the paperbark tree. This tree is an invader from Australia

31、. Paperbark trees soak up a lot of water. In the early 1900s, people brought them to Florida because they thought they would help drain the Everglades. However, the invaders adapted too well. Paperbark trees have taken over hundreds of thousands of acres of the Everglades and killed other trees. Sci

32、entists are cutting down these invaders or spraying them with herbicides (除草剂) to kill them. 40Which helps to explain why it is difficult to travel in Everglades? A. Airboats may make a very big noise. B. You may get lost when passing through. C. Paperbark trees soak up too much water there. D. Many

33、 different kinds of animals are to be protected.41Why do people use airboats instead of normal boats? A. They have big propellers to move them faster than alligators. B. The propeller makes loud noise so as to scare alligators. C. Their flat bottom can skim along the water surface. D. They can watch

34、 alligators without hurting them. 42The following measures were taken to drain the Everglades except that people_.

36、. Panic moment! She quickly picked up the wet phone and tried to turn it on, but nothing worked. Her first reaction? She got dressed, drove to the nearest store, and bought a new model at full price. A new study finds that fear of losing your phone is a common illness. About 66 percent of those surv

37、eyed suffer from nomophobia or “no mobile phone phobia. Interestingly, more women worry about losing their phone than men. Fortunately, theres a solution. The first step is to figure out if you have nomophobia. Checking your phone too often is one thing, but the true sign of a problem is that you ca

38、nt conduct business or go about your routine when the fear becomes so severe. Do you go to unusual lengths to make sure you have your phone? Thats another sign of a problem. If you find you check your phone plenty of times per hour, or a total of an hour per day, there may be a problem. Some of the

39、treatments are similar to those for treating anxiety attacks: Leaving the phone behind and not checking e-mail or text messages, and then learning to tolerate the after anxiety. Even if this leads to a high level of worry and stress, the solution is to push through the fear and learn to deal with no

40、t having your phone. Of course, there are also technological alternatives.

To find it, he can just go to a Web site and see the phones location. He also insures his
