At first, I was only allowed to ride to school, but eventually my parents extended the privilege to include my favorite childhood haunts: ①Grandma's apartment, Pike Place Market and, in the summer, Seattle Center. Back then, the bus symbolized independence. It gave me a power rare among my eight-year-old peers: the ability to get around the city w ithout the assistance of an adult.②By the time I turned 16, a new power beckoned: a form of transportation that was available on demand and did not require an umbrella or an extra pair of gloves. ③Like most young Americans, I believed the auto industry's propaganda that a car was necessary for my transition to adulthood. ④For the next ten years — except for a short time in college, when I found myself unable to afford a vehicle of my own —I left the bus behind. But then I accepted a job at a software com pany based 15 miles outside the city.⑤ During my commutes, I became more aware of the negative impact of car culture: pollution, sprawl, isolation and fatalities.I began to question my right to subject my beloved city to the impact of my choices. ⑥So I returned to my roots and began riding the bus to work. Eventually, I was using my car so rarely that I decided to try living without one. I sold my lovely silver coupe in March 2003 and have used the bus as my primary means of transport ever since.⑦Riding the bus isn't always fun. I don't like riding it on rainy days, when the floor is slippery and the windows are so fogged- up that you can't see your stop. ⑧I don't like standing when the bus crowded.I don't like drivers who ride the brakes. ⑨I don't like practical hairstyles or sensible shoes. Despite these occasional inconveniences, I will never go back to driving, because what I believe is this:I believe in sitting next to my neighbors, in saying "How're you doing today?" and "Nice weather,isn't it?" I believe in feeling the sun on my skin, in breathing fresh air and moving my body. I believe in eavesdropping. I believe in novels you can't put down. I believe in business people and teenage lovers, middle-aged gossips and giggling toddlers. I believe in watching and listening. I believe in naps. I believe in the camaraderie that develops among riders late at night, when the smooth-voiced driver plays jazz loud enough for everyone to enjoy.I believe in clean air, in keeping cities populous and vibrant, and in protecting our remaining farmland and forests. I believe in the beauty of Puget Sound and the majesty of Mount Rainier. I believe that human life is sacred, that the world's resources should be shared and that every choice matters.⑩I believe that change is possible — if all of us ride.Key Sentences1. At first, I was only allowed to ride to school, but eventually my parents extended the privilege to include my favorite childhood haunts: … …起初,我只是被准许乘车去学校,但最终父母给我更多的权利,我可以去我最喜欢的儿童场所:… …2. It gave me a power rare among my eight-year-old peers: the ability to get around the city without the assistance of an adult.它给予我在其他八岁的同龄人中一项少有的权力:在没有成人的协助下,去往城市的任何一个角落。

What are the most valuable gifts you have ever received?3. What shared memories do you have with your best friends?The Greatest GiftWhen I was a child I was shocked at the idea that my sisters could be my best friends. Now, wouldn't have it any other way.I'm five years old, and my mother is on her hands and knees, washing the kitchen floor. I'm telling her about a new girl in school, and she suddenly looks up at me and says, "Who are your best friends?"I'm not sure what to say. I've been friends with Jill since I was three or so, and I really Jaime, a friend in kindergarten."Jill and Jaime."My mother stops scrubbing the floor and starts to take off her yellow rubber gloves. "Well, about Karen and Cindy?"My sisters?" I don't know who their best friends are," I say."No," she says. "I'm saying, why aren't they your best friends?"She seems upset, as though I have hurt her feelings. "But they're my sisters.""Yes, but they can still be your best friends. Friends may come and go, but your sisters wi always be there for you."At the time, the idea of my two sisters being my closest friend seemed strange to me. We us fight all the time over toys, food, attention, what to watch on television — you name it, we bickered about it at some point. ①How could my sisters be my best friends? We weren't the same We all had our own friends in school.But my mother never let the three of us forget it: sisters are lifelong friends. Her wish —like most parents' — was to give us something that she had never had. Growing up as an only ch she longed for siblings. When she gave birth to three daughters — separated by only four years the fulfillment of her dream had only just begun. ② She had given us each a gift — our sister and she wanted to make sure we did not take that gift for granted. She would frequently tell us lucky we were. But there were other, more subtle ways that she encouraged us to grow closer. Sh never showed favoritism to one daughter over the other, so as not to cause jealousy or bitterne between us. She constantly took us places together — skating, shopping, swimming — so we deve common interests. And when we were teenagers, Mom always punished us equally, giving us yet ano bonding experience.We didn't always get along beautifully and fought just like any other siblings. But somewhe between Mom's lectures, the family vacations and the shared memories, we realized that our moth was right. ③Today I share things with my sisters that I share with no one else. My sister Cind I ran the New York City Marathon together, side by side, even holding hands when we crossed the finishing line. When my sister Karen got married, I was her maid of honor. Cindy and I traveled through Europe together and even shared an apartment for two years. The three of us trust each with our greatest secrets.It was twenty-three years ago that my mother first asked me who my two best friends were. ④Today she doesn't have to. She already knows.Key Sentences1. We used to fight all the time over toys, food, attention, what to watch on television —name it, we bickered about it at some point.我们从小一直为了玩具、食物、大人旳关注、看什么电视节目而争执,但凡可以争可以吵旳,都吵过了2.

We all get the Monday blues from time to time, but there are ways to 1
improveyour working life and be happy at work. If you're going through a rough
patch(经历难关,经历一段困难时期)at work or are lacking job satisfaction, 2 check outthese
ways to boost your mood and have a happier work day.
If your workday often leaves you feeling 3 stressed and overwhelmed, it is time
to calm things down by getting more organized. Firstly, make sure you 4 arrive a
few minutes early for work to give you time to organize your tasks for the day
and get mentally prepared. Secondly, organize your space by 5 clearing awayany
clutter and streamlining your workspace. Finally, make a list of everything that
you need to do that day in order of 6 priority. lf you can, try taking care of
the more difficult things first to help take a 7 weightoff your mind.
Variety is the spice of life, and this is never truer than when it comes to your
working day. Following the same 8 routineday in, day out can quickly cause
boredom and dissatisfaction to set in, so try making every day a little 9
differentin any way you can. Try doing routine tasks in a different order,
talking to someone new or taking a different 10 routeto work. If you really
can't shake up(重组)your workday itself, instead try organizing something fun and
different to do on your lunch break every so often.。
