                                My First Long Run
   Two weeks ago,I had a quarrel with my husband. After he had driven off in anger,I realized that I
wasn't going to feel any better just sitting there.Feeling abandoned andguilty,I put on my gym shoes
to get some fresh air.
    Our driveway has a slope (斜坡)that is easier just to jog downif you are lazy,takipg advantage of
gravity.Instead of stopping at theend of the slope,I decided to see if I could just jog to the end of
thestreet.1 had tried a few months ago and failed miserably,Since thatfirst attempt I had been jogging
regularly and was significantly fitter,but still very lazy.However this time around I managed to reach
thestop sign with ease and I figiired I would go a little further.
    After about one kilometer, however, I noticed that my upperbody was tense. To make the moveinent
easier I had to relax my body,and tried to take deep breaths of fresh air.
    I kept  giving myself the excuse  to  stop. No  one  would  bedisappointed. No one would even know. But I didn't stop.I wanted tokeep going harder , better , faster , stronger. To my great surprise , I ran4. 9
km in 31 minutes. When I got back,I had tears in my eyes. I didsomething I thought I could never do.
It was the first run of my life. Since then,I have improved mystride ( 步幅 ) and time. After every run I
feel fitter, happier andmotivated to keep progressing.I love the runner's high. I normally jogbecause I
want to look good. I want to run because it makes me feelgood.

     If I could select a word that best describes the majority of American parents, that word
would be guilt-ridden (內(nèi)疚的). How sad it is to see parents become the willing victims
of the "give me game", only to discover that, no matter what they do, it isn't enough. In the
end, they are looked down for their lack of firmness and blamed when their spoiled children
get into trouble. With this in mind, I shall first answer this question: "What do parents owe
their children? And I shall start with what they don't owe them.
     Parents don't owe their children every minute of their day and every ounce of their energy.
They don't owe round-the-clock car service, singing lessons, tennis lessons, an expensive car
when they reach sixteen, or a trip to Europe when they graduate.
     I take the firm position that parents do not owe their children a college education. If they
can afford it, fine. But they must not feel guilty if they can't. If the children really want to go,
they' II find a way. Here are plenty of loans and scholarships for the bright and eager who
can't afford to pay.
     After children marry, their parents do not owe them a house or money for the furniture.
They do not have an obligation to baby-sit their grandchildren when the parents were on
vacation. If they want to do it, it must be considered a favour, not an obligation.
     In my opinion, parents do not owe their children an inheritance, no matter how much
money they have. One of the surest ways to produce a loafer is to let children know that
their future is assured.
     Do parents owe their children anything? Yes, they owe them a great deal.
     One of their chief obligations is to give their children a sense of personal worth, for
self-esteem is the basis of a good mental health. Parents owe their children firm guidance
and consistent discipline. Parents owe their children privacy and respect for their personal
belongings.
     No child asks to be born. If you bring a life into the world, you owe the children something.
And if you give him his due, he'll have something of value to pass along to your grandchildren.

1. According to the author, ______.
A. parents ought to send children to college as a duty .
B. parents needn't feel guilty if they are unable to send their children to college
C. ff they say "No", parents will surely make their children angry
D. parents must support their children even after their marriage
2. The underlined word "loafer" most probably refers to ______.
A. a poorly educated person          
B. a well educated person
C. a hard-working person          
D. a lazy person
3. The writer of this passage mainly wants to tell us ______.
A. why children look down upon their parents
B. the difference between duties of the parents and the children
C. over devotion to the children results in trouble for the parents themselves
D. children should depend on no one but themselves
4. The author's attitude towards the parents is ______.
A. angry        
B. pitiful      
C disappointed      
D. satisfied

                    Find Which Direction Is South
     Do you have a good sense of direction? If not, please take
with you a compass. But if you forget to take a compass, you
can still find your way.
     It's never a good idea to imagine that the family member
who was entrusted (委托) with the job of map-reading actually
knows where the family is. You can tell by the slightly
confused load on their faces that nothing on the ground seems
to match the map. Never mind. The sun is shining and it's still
morning.If you don't know the exact time, you can still find
out where south is, but you'll need to be patient.
    ①Find a straight stick and put it in the ground in a place
where you can mark its shadow.
    ②Try to position the stick as vertically(垂直)as you can.
You can check this by making a simple plumb line (鉛錘線)
with a piece of string and weight. You haven't got any string?
OK, use a thread from your clothes with a button tied at the
end to act as a weight.
    ③Mark the end of the shadow cast by the stick.
    ④Wait approximately half an hour and mark the end of
the shadow again.
    ⑤Keep doing this until you have made several marks.
    ⑥The mark nearest the stick will represent the shortest
shadow, which is cast at midday, when the sun is highest in
the sky and pointing to the exact south.
    ⑦Pick a point in the distance along the line between the
shortest shadow and the stick.
    ⑧That point is south of where you are.
    ⑨Now you can turn the map, like you did before, and
find which way you should be travelling.
1. To find the direction, we ought to be patient probablybecause ____ .     
A. it is not easy to find a proper stick
B. it is not easy to position the stick
C. it takes hours to make the marks
D. it takes about half an hour to make the marks
2. The passage would probably be most helpful to ____. 
A. those who draw maps
B. those who get lost
C. those who make compasses
D. those who do experiments
3. Which of the following pictures best shows the way of finding the direction of south?
4. The author presents this passage by _____.
A. telling an interesting story
B. describing an activity in a lively way
C. testing an idea by reasoning
D. introducing a practical method
