Last week, while visiting my dad with my daughter, we went to a restaurant for dinner. When we were seated, my dad asked the waitress if there were any soldiers eating at the restaurant. Then waitress said there was a soldier having dinner with his friend. My dad told the waitress to tell the soldier and his friend that their dinner was paid for! He also said that he did not want to be known as the benefactor(施主).
Then waitress later commented on my dad’s thoughtful behavior saying that she had never seen anything like this before. At a local college, she had studied opera and so she used this to thank my dad by performing a piece from The Pearl Fisherman. Her voice brought me to tears because it sounded perfect!
After a while, the soldier appeared at our table (I don’t know how he knew my dad paid the bill for him.) and said that he would be sent to the front the next morning and that he could not leave this country without saying “thanks” to my dad. My dad replied that it was he who wanted to say “thanks”. They shook hands as the soldier left.
Before we left, the waitress came by again. She did a magic show as another way to show her “thanks” to my dad. Her show was really great. My dad left her a note with email address asking for her next performance time in addition to a $ 50 tip.
Everyone witnessed something exemplary (可作榜样的) in the human spirit that night. I can only hope to see more of this in the future.

In south Africa’s Limpopo province, a baobab tree (猴面包树) once grew so large and stood so strong that its human neighbors decided to build a pub inside the living tree’s thousand-year-old hollow trunk(树干). For 20 years, “The Big Baobab Pub” attracted tourists all over the world. But in August 2016, one of “the walls” broke. Eight months later, another huge piece broke, too. Now, five of the giant stems have collapsed and died, leaving only half of the tree standing.
Though it could sound like a result of human visitation, it's part of an alarming trend: many of the oldest, largest baobab trees in Africa have died within the last 12 years.
Stephan Woodbourne, an African scientist, said: “Of the oldest trees that we’ve looked at in Southern Africa, the three trees that are older than 2,000 years have all died in the past 10 years. Of the 11 trees that are 1,000 to 2,000 years old, six of them have died.”
A report published in the journal Nature Plants claims scores of the ancient baobab trees, some of which are up to 3,000 years old, are now dying because of rising global temperatures.
Researchers believe it is impossible that such a high number of old baobab trees die in such a short time due to natural causes. They think it may be associated with huge change of climate conditions that affect southern Africa in particular.
8.What has happened to The Big Baobab Pub
A.The pub has largely been destroyed. B.More tourists from the world visit it.
C.The pub has a long history of 2,000 years. D.The Baobab Tree grows larger and stronger.
9.The paragraphs from 2 to 4 mainly tell us that ________.
A.all the oldest baobab trees have been dead B.the oldest baobab trees will die out soon
C.ancient baobab trees are in the face of danger D.Human’s visits lead to ancient baobab trees’ deaths
10.What is probably the main reason for the trees’ death
A.Many pubs’ foundation. B.Global climate changes.
C.Human visitation. D.Natural causes.
11.What’s the best title of the passage
A.Research on Baobab Tree. B.Facts about Baobab Tree.
C.Baobab Tree in Africa. D.Tree of Life is Dying.
D
I'm still very much figuring out what I want to do with my life, but I can honestly say now that I feel very proud of where I am right now. I've written about the teachers in high school and college I had that made a big impact on me, but I haven't mentioned the person that make the biggest difference.
Growing up, Mom was always there for me. People think of Asian mothers as scary and demanding, but my mother was nothing like that. During the summers, we had some math and Chinese lessons every day before we could go outside and play, which may sound dull, but somehow Mom made it fun. She took our education very seriously and spent countless hours copying math problems into notebooks with colored pens. She made hundreds of index(索引)cards, each with a Chinese character on it, which we would rearrange to make sentences. I still smile when I open up my math notebooks and see those colorful pages of math problems—if I got them all right, I'd get a smiling face and "100%!" or "Next Einstein!" on the top with sticker. If I didn't do so well, I'd get a Pretty Good!"
I was the only girl on the Math Counts team in middle school. I came home one day from middle school and told her that some of the boys in my class made fun of me because I was doing better than them in math. She went to my teacher and told her that she didn't want her daughter to feel like she couldn't be good at math or to be teased because of it. I didn't know this until recently my mom told me that she herself was the only female engineer where she started working, and gained the respect of her coworkers.
12.Who made the lasting and deepest influence on the author
A.Her teachers in high school. B.Her teachers in college.
C.Her friends in college. D.Her mom.
13.When the author was young, her math and Chinese lessons made her feel ________.
A.fun with Mom's wonderful instructions B.dull without classmates to study together
C.hopeless to keep up with other classmates D.more confused since mom wasn't a teacher
14.Why did the author love learning from her mother
A.She liked to play word games with Mom at home. B.Mom always encouraged her whatever happened.
C.She knew Mom liked playing tricks on her. D.Mom drew many smiling faces for her.
15.Why was the author made fun of when in Math Counts team in middle school
A.Because her math was better than the boys. B.Because no other girls liked to learn math.
C.Because her mother wasn't good at math. D.Because she failed in the math contest.
