The mother refused to speak to her son because he had married a foreigner. So I asked my mother, “You would never do that, would you?” “No,” she answered, and then she said, “I wouldn’t speak to you for 10 years!” I laughed at her joke and asked “Really?” I was born and raised in the United States by Thai parents. We were a Thai family growing up in America. Well, I didn’t marry a Thai man or an American. I married a Frenchman. When I got married, my mother was so happy that I doubted what she said before. My husband has lived for the last 25 years in the United States, which is a great melting pot with different cultures. He was raised in France, but he chose to make his life here. We were married, so we prepared ourselves to overcome the culture barrier(障 碍). Our hearts belonged to each other, not to our respective (各自的) cultures. |

He went to an old temple(寺院) on a high mountain by himself. Suddenly it began to rain heavily and he hurried to go down the mountain. He found the wooden bridge was under the water. He couldn’t find anybody in the dark. He had to spend the rainy night in a broken farmhouse at the foot of the mountain. He was so hungry that he hardly fell asleep. The next morning the rain stopped and he found the bridge was damaged(损 坏的). He saw the river was not too deep and wide and tried to swim across it. In the middle of the river the water nearly washed him away. Two farmers saved him but he lost his bag. They gave him some food and dry clothes. He thanked them and went to the nearest town to call up his parents. At the end of the street, Dick found a small hotel and went in. He asked the price for a room. “A room on the first floor is twenty dollars, on the second floor, fifteen dollars and on the third, ten dollars,” answered the owner. The young man has only eight dollars in all his pockets. He said thanks and was leaving. The owner asked, “Don’t you like our hotel?” “Yes, it’s good,” said Dick, “but it’s not tall enough!” 根据短文内容，选择正确答案。 |

This wa s organi zed by a science club at Cambridge University. A helium(氦) balloon was used to send the bears into space. It also carried several cameras, a computer and a webcam (网络摄像头). The teddy bears were dressed in spacesuits to protect them from the cold temperatures. They were designed local schoolchildren. The balloon burst(爆炸) as it f lew higher and higher. The toys spent a few minutes in space, which was caught by a webcam. Soon they began to fall to the earth, and a parachute opened, which provided a soft landing. This experiment lasted about 120 minutes. Its aim was to find out which of the four spacesuits could best protect the bears from the temperature of -53℃. “We want to offer young people the chance to know about the space industry,” said one of the organizers. “High altitude(海拔) balloon flights are a fantastic way of encouraging interest in science. They are easy to understand, and produce amazing results.” |

How would you feel about spending months on the road traveling alone from the UK to China by bike? For British cyclist Pete Jones, cycling long distances and staying out at night are very natural. And now Mr Jones is taking a trip across from Britain to China. Having lived in Xinjiang for three years, and having visited China many times since 1992, Pete Jones is no stranger to China. But he says many people are puzzled by his passion for cycling, asking why he would choose to cycle when he can drive a car. Edward Genochio was another British cyclist who completed a 41,000 km trip to China and back. He said his aim was to tell people that cycling does no harm to nature and the environment, and it is safe. In the UK, more and more people have chosen two wheels. The number of people cycling to work has almost doubled(加倍) in the last five years. |
