阅读理解     I am a good mother of three children.I have tried never to let my passion stand in the way of being a
good parent.
     I no longer consider myself the center of the universe.I show up.I listen.I try to laugh.I am a good
friend to my husband.I have tried to make marriage vows (誓言) mean what they say.I am a good friend
to my friends, and they to me.Without them, there would be nothing to say to you today.
     So here"s what I want to tell you today:Get a life.A real life, not a desire of the next promotion (提升),
the bigger paycheck, the larger house.
     Get a life in which you are not alone.Find people you love, and who love you.And remember that love
is not leisure (休闲), it is work.Pick up the phone.Send an email.Write a letter.And realize that life is the
best thing and that you have no business taking it for granted.
      It is so easy to waste our lives, our days, our hours, and our minutes.It_is_so_easy_to_exist_instead
_of_to_live.I learnt to live many years ago.Something really, really bad happened to me, something that
changed my life in ways that, if I had my choice, it would never have been changed at all.And what I
learned from it is what, today, seems to be the hardest lesson of all.
      I learned to love the journey, not the destination.I learned to look at all the good in the world and try
to give some of it back because I believed in it, completely and totally.And I tried to do that, in part, by
telling others what I had learned.
      By telling them this:Read in the backyard with the sun on your face.Learn to be happy.And think of life as a deadly illness, because if you do, you will live it with joy and passion (激情) as it ought to be lived.

阅读理解    When you were looking for a reliable, honest auto mechanic, how did you find him?Before you went
into that restaurant you recently tried, how did you know that it served great food?If you are like most
people on the planet, you want to lower your risk of a big ugly surprise so you asked people you trust to
refer to a business they trust.Marketers call this friendtofriend recognition of a business "wordofmouth"
advertising.
     When you do a great job for your customer or a bad job, people are going to talk about your
business.Unfortunately, because we humans seem to feel negative emotions more intensively than positive

ones.Understand this:Customers believe their own experience.You can"t make them believe that your
company is wonderful when they felt they were treated badly.

     And when you do, you build a great reputation.That takes time.But it forms a close link with your
customers in a way that no advertising and no promotional coupon (优惠券) ever could.
     The good news is that because there are so many different businesses chasing after your customers"
money, people want to know whom they can trust.So people are going to be talking about you.Create a
free sales force for your business-an army of delightedcustomers who tell everyone that they know how
good your company is to do business with.That"s a great antidote (解毒剂) to defectionitis.

阅读理解     Have you ever been to the beautiful country of Holland and its capital Amsterdam? Anyone who has
traveled to Amsterdam would probably agree on one thing: Amsterdam"s story is a tale of two cities - one during the day and a completely different one at night.
     When the sun is up, this largest city in the Netherlands sits quietly on the Amstel River. You can rent a
bicycle, visit the Van Gogh or Anne Frank museum, or take a water taxi. But when the sun goes down,
the partying begins. In the big clubs and in the coffee shops, tourists gather to talk politics and smoke.
     Several areas of the city clearly show the two worlds that rule Amsterdam. And they"re all within a
short cab ride of each other. For example, Dam Square attracts daytime sightseers to its festivals, open
markets, concerts and other events. Several beautiful and very popular hotels can be found there. And
there"s the  Royal Palace and the Magna Plaza shopping mall. But at night party-seekers come to the
square. Hip hop or funk music (疯狂音乐) is heard there. So if you come, be ready to dance. The clubs
don"t shut down until 4 am.
     And while you"re there, check out the various inexpensive ways to tour the city. Don"t worry about
getting lost. Although Dutch is the official language, most people in Amsterdam speak English and are
happy to help you with directions. And you"ll notice that half the people walking around in the streets are
on bicycles they rent. Amsterdam also has a well-planned canal system. For about 10 dollars, you can
use the canal bus or a water taxi to cruise (巡游) the "Venice of the North".
     The city has a historic past. One impressive (印象深刻的) place to visit is the Anne Frank House
on Nine Street. It was there that the young Jewish girl wrote her famous diary during World War II.
Visitors can view Anne"s original diary and climb behind the bookcase to the room where she and her
family hid from the Nazis for two years.

1. What means of transport is not available to visitors in Amsterdam?

A. A carriage.
B. A bicycle.
C. A canal bus.
D. A water taxi.

2. What can you learn about by visiting the Anne Frank House?

A. The wonderful past of Amsterdam.
B. The experience of a beautiful girl survivor.
C. The life of Jewish during World War
D. The suffering of the Dutch in wars.

3. The passage is intended to _______.

A. call up people"s memories of World War?
B. tell readers what A Tale of Two Cities is about
C. instruct visitors what to do and see in Holland
D. offer readers some information about Amsterdam

4. This passage is most likely taken from _______.

A. a private diary
B. a test paper
C. a travel journey
D. a history book
