Keeping a Diary in English
Our teacher asks us to keep a diary in English. I 36 doing so because I think keeping a diary in English is one of the effective ways to 37 our English writing ability.
Compared with 38 forms of writing, it is shorter and 39 less time. It can help us to 40 the habit of thinking in English. 41 we persist in(堅持) this practice, gradually we’ll learn how to express ourselves in English. In keeping a diary in English, 42 can use the important phrases and sentences we’ve 43 in or out of English classes to describe our 44 , and this way we can master and use freely 45 we’ve learned, which will do good 46 us in English learning. But 47 we certainly run up against many difficulties. In the first place, it often happens that we have 48 finding proper words and phrases to give expression to our mind. Secondly, there 49 many idiomatic (慣用的) ways of saying things in Chinese. And it is extremely hard 50 us to put them into English properly.
As far as I am concerned, my suggestion is that we 51 always have a notebook and a Chinese-English dictionary within easy reach. Whenever 52 beats(難倒) us, we can first put it down in our notebook and then look it up in our dictionary. We can also turn to our English teacher for 53 , if necessary.
In short, I believe that it is of 54 use to keep a diary in English for the development of our 55 skills.

Twenty years ago, I drove a taxi for a living. One night I went to pick up a passenger at 2:30 AM. When I arrived to collect, I found the building was dark except for a single light in a ground floor window.
I walked to the door and knocked, “Just a minute,” answered a weak, elderly voice.
After a long pause, the door opened. A small woman in her eighties stood before me. By her side was a small suitcase.
I took the suitcase to the car, and then returned to help the woman. She took my arm and we walked slowly toward the car.
She kept thanking me for my kindness. “It’s nothing,” I told her. “I just try to treat my passengers the way I would want my mother treated.”
“Oh, you’re such a good man.” She said. When we got into the taxi, she gave me an address, and then asked, “Could you drive through downtown?”
“It’s not the shortest way,” I answered quickly.
“Oh, I’m in no hurry,” she said. “I’m on my way to a hospice(臨終醫院). I don’t have any family left. The doctor says I don’t have very long.”
I quietly reached over and shut off the meter(計價器).
For the next two hours, we drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked, the neighborhood where she had lived, and the furniture shop that had once been a ballroom where she had gone dancing as a girl.
Sometimes she’d ask me to slow down in front of a particular building and would sit staring into the darkness, saying nothing.
At dawn, she suddenly said,” I’m tired. Let’s go now.”
We drove in silence to the address she had given me.
“How much do I owe you?” she asked.
“Nothing.” I said.
“You have to make a living,” she answered. “Oh, there are other passengers,” I answered.
Almost without thinking, I bent and gave her a hug. She held onto me tightly. Our hug ended with her remark, “You gave an old woman a little moment of joy.”
1. The old woman chose to ride through the city in order to ______.
|
A．show she was familiar with the city |
B．see some places for the last time |
|
C．let the driver earn more money |
D．reach the destination on time |
2.The taxi driver did not charge the old woman because he ______.
|
A．wanted to do her a favor |
|
B．shut off the meter by mistake |
|
C．had received her payment in advance |
|
D．was in a hurry to take other passengers |
3.What can we learn from the story?
|
A．Giving is always a pleasure. |
|
B．People should respect each other. |
|
C．An act of kindness can bring people great joy. |
|
D．People should learn to appreciate others’ concern. |

Diamonds may be forever. But what’s a girl to do when she gets dumped (失戀) or divorced (離婚) and those rings, necklace and love gifts lose their emotional (情感) sense?
Help is just a click away on new Web sites that provide an outlet for selling jewelry(珠寶) from past relationships, sharing break-up stories and helping broken hearts heal (愈合).
“You go through a divorce. What do you do with that ring? Maybe you have a child you can pass it on to. Maybe you don’t. It just sits there, ” said Megahn Perry, who with her stepmother (繼母) Marie Perry runs www.exboyfriendjewelry.com.
Three months after its start with the slogan(口號) “You Don’t Want It. He Can’t Have It Back,” the web site has 3,000 registered users and more than 600 postings of rings, bracelets and earrings for sale—all with a personal tale attached.
As one woman posting a diamond ring for $3,500 wrote:
“Beautiful ring came with a wrong man. Decided to sell to regain the money that I spent finishing payments on the ring that my ex didn’t.”
The idea was born when Megahn Perry, a Los Angeles actress and writer, was looking for a safe place to sell a wedding set after a divorce and realized others might have former boyfriends’ jewelry with memories(記憶) that make them too painful to wear.
The local pawn shop(當鋪) proved an unattractive choice. So she teamed up with her stepmother Marie, researched the market and found a gap in it.

4.Who set up this website?
