When I was eight or nine years old, I wrote my first poem.

My mother read the little poem and began to cry. “Buddy, you didn’t really write this beautiful, beautiful poem!” Shyly, I said that I had. My mother poured out her welcome praise. Why, this poem was nothing short of genius!

What time will Father be home?” I asked. I could hardly wait to show him what I had accomplished. My mother said she hoped he would be home around 7. I spent the best part of that afternoon preparing for his arrival. First, I wrote the poem out in my finest handwriting. Then I used colored pens to draw a border around it. Then I confidently placed it right on my father’s plate on the dining table. But my father did not return at 7, Seven-fifteen, Seven-thirty. My father had begun his motion-picture career as a writer. He would be able to appreciate my poem even more than my mother.

It was almost 8 o’clock when my father burst in. He was an hour late, but he could not sit down. I can see him now, a big Havana cigar in one hand, the rapidly disappearing drink in the other, calling down bitter words on his employees.

Suddenly, he paused and glared at his plate. There was a silence. He was reaching for my poem. I lowered my head and stared down into my plate.

“What is this?” I heard him say.

“Ben, a wonderful thing has happened,” my mother said. “Buddy has written his first poem. And it’s beautiful, absolutely amazing”.

“If you don’t mind, I’d like to decide that for myself,” Father said.

I kept my face lowered to my plate. It was only 10 lines long. But it seemed to take hours. I remember wondering why it was taking so long. I could hear him dropping the poem back on the table again. Now was the moment of decision.

“I think it’s bad,” my father said.

I couldn’t look up. My eyes were getting wet.

“Ben, sometimes I don’t understand you,” my mother was saying. “This is just a little boy. You’re not in your studio now. These are the first lines of poetry he’s ever written. He need encouragement.”

“I don’t know why,” my father held his ground. “Isn’t there enough bad poetry in the world already? No law says Buddy has to become a poet.”

I couldn’t stand it another second. I ran from the dining room, threw myself on the bed and cried.

That may have been the end of the anecdote(軼事) — but not of its significance for me.

A few years later I took a second look at that first poem, and unwillingly I had to agree with my father’s tough judgment. It was a pretty bad poem. After a while, I worked up the courage to show him something new, a short story. My father thought it was overwritten but not hopeless. I was learning to rewrite. And my mother was learning that she could disapprove of me without ruining me. You might say we were all learning. I was going on 12.

As I worked my way into other books and plays and films, it became clearer and clearer to me how fortunate I had been to have had a mother who said, “Buddy, it’s wonderful!” and a father who shook his head no and drove me to tears with his, “I think it’s bad.” In fact all of us in life need that mother force, the loving force from which all creation flows; and yet the mother force alone is incomplete, even misleading, finally damaging, without the father force to caution, “Watch. Listen. Review. Improve.” Between the two poles of affirmation (肯定) and doubt, both in the name of love, I try to follow my true course.

1.What did the mother think of the Buddy’s poem?

A. She was so moved that she cried.

B. She believed Buddy needed advice from his father.

C. She considered Buddy had no talent for poetry.

D. She thought the poem was well written.

2.Which underlined word in the following sentences best reflects Buddy’s eagerness to show his father the poem?

A. Then I confidently placed it right on my father’s place on the dining table.

B. He would be able to appreciate my poem even more than my mother.

C. I wrote the poem out in my finest handwriting.

D. I could hardly wait to show him what I had accomplished.

3.The underlined sentence “My father held his ground” could best be replaced by ________.

A. My father began to explain his reasons

B. My father thought his comment is unreasonable

C. My father refused to change his opinion

D. My father got so angry that he rose to his feet

4.From the passage, we can infer that the father can be best described as ________.

A. cruel and stubbornB. loving and matter-of-fact

C. bad-tempered and rudeD. cautious and strict

5.Which of the following statements do you think the author might agree with?

A. The incident helped the writer work his work further as a writer.

B. The author only realized the significance of the incident after becoming a writer.

C. After the incident, the author stopped writing but tried his luck in plays and films.

D. The incident completely changed the author’s course of life.

The largest campaign of killing rats in history is set to poison millions of rats on the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia. Scientists say the campaign planned for 2013 and 2014 will restore beautiful South Georgia to the position it once held as the world’s most important nesting sites for seabirds.

It was sailors in the late 18th century who unintentionally introduced rats to what had been a fresh environment. “If we can destroy the rats, at least 100 million birds will return to their home on South Georgia,” says Tony Martin, a biology professor at the University of Dundee who was invited to lead the project.

South Georgia is by far the largest island to get rid of animals that destroy native wildlife after being introduced deliberately or accidentally by people. Though rats and mice have done the most damage, cats, foxes, goats, deer, rabbits and other species have been targeted in the campaigns around the world.

South Georgia is seven times the size of New Zealand’s Campbell Island, currently the largest area ever killing rats. The successful war against Campbell Island rats was carried out in 2001 with 132 tons of poison dropped from five helicopters.

“New Zealand pioneered the techniques for ridding islands of rats and in fact our operation on South Georgia is based on New Zealand’s technology.” Says Martin. “Some New Zealanders will be helping our campaign, including our chief pilot, Peter Garden, who was also chief pilot for the projects at Campbell Island and Rat Island, in the Aleutian chain of the north Pacific.”

The second and third stages in 2013 and 2014 will involve dropping as much as 300 tons of poison from the air onto every part of the island where rats might live. It is a huge operation, carried out during the stormy southern autumn when the rats are hungry and the risks of poisoning native wildlife are less than in the spring and summer months. “Ideally we’d do in winter but the weather makes that too risky,” Martin says.

The ecological payback will be priceless. But Martin says, “The full benefits will take decades to arrive, because some of these birds are slow to hatch.”

1.According to the passage, how did the rats appear on the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia?

A. They were introduced there by sailors accidentally.

B. They escaped there from Campbell Island.

C. They were attracted there by wildlife.

D. They were brought in by people deliberately.

2.Which of the following is True about Peter Garden?

A. He is in charge of the campaign on the sub-Antarctic island.

B. He will be the only pilot for the project on the sub-Antarctic island.

C. He will benefit a lot from the campaign on the sub-Antarctic island.

D. He made great contributions to the project at Campbell Island and Rat Island.

3.The operation of ridding South Georgia of rats is to carried out in autumn because _________.

A. the war against Campbell Island rats failed in all seasons except autumn.

B. only then do the New Zealanders to help the operation have the spare time.

C. the poison kills rats more effectively than it does in any other season.

D. rats then need more food and the operation does less harm to native wildlife.

4.What can we infer from the passage?.

A. Rats aren’t the only species to be blamed for the disappearance of wildlife.

B. The campaign of killing rats will benefit the native wildlife in a short time.

C. The first stage of killing rats on the sub-Antarctic island didn’t make great achievements.

D. The campaign in South Georgia will fully follow in the footsteps of that on Campbell Island.

Li Bingyin is now studying law at the Stern School of Business at New York University. She wrote this letter just before hurricane Sandy destroyed the East Coast.

Dear readers,

The storm will really take a toll on the city! Right now I am sitting in my dormitory（寢室）, waiting for the blackout（停電）to come any second, and listening to the wind howl outside my windows. Hurricane Sandy is supposed to hit the East Coast hard today. Due to the bad weather, most schools and universities have canceled classes for Monday and Tuesday.

Luckily, the university has taken steps to prepare for this storm. University officials sent out e-mails with explanation in the case of a blackout, evacuation（撤離）, or other emergency. Just recently, I received several text messages from the school about power off in certain dormitories. They advised us to prepare a bag with essentials（生活必需品）, in case we needed to leave the building and move to a safer place.

Yesterday I went out to buy a flashlight(手電筒), but all of the nearby stores were sold out. Everyone was storing water, food and other supplies for the storm.

Right now the city is unusually quiet. On any other day, there would be the sounds of cars, people chatting, and street artists performing. Tonight, there’s just the wind and rain hitting the window. The subway system has been closed since last night, and there is nobody on the streets. Hopefully Hurricane Sandy will soon pass without leaving much damage

Sincerely,

Li Bingyin
