    Passage Eleven

    “I love you， Bob.” “I love you， too， Nancy.” It was 2 a.m. and I was hearing my parents‘ voices through the thin wall separating my bedroom from theirs. Their loving words were sweet， touching - and surprising.

    My parents married on September 14， 1940， after a brief dating. She was nearing 30 and knew it was time to start a family. The handsome， well-educated man who came by the office where she worked looked like a good bet. He was attracted by her figure， her blue eyes. The romance didn‘t last long.

    Seeds of difference grew almost immediately. She liked to travel； he hated the thought. He loved golf； she did not. He was a Republican， she a loyal Democrat. They fought at the bridge table， at the dinner table， over money， over the perceived shortcomings of their respective in-laws.

    There was a hope that they would change once they retired， and the angry winds did calm somewhat， but what remained changed itself into bright， hard bitterness. “I always thought we‘d …” my mother would begin， before launching into a precise listing of my father’s faults. The complaints were recited so often， I can repeat them by heart today. As he listened， my father would say angry threats and curses in a low voice.

    It wasn‘t the happiest marriage， but as their 60th anniversary approached， my sister and I decided to throw a party. Sixty years was a long time， after all； why not try to make the best of things？ We’d provide the cake， the balloons， the toasts， and they‘d follow one rule： no fighting.

    The agreement was honored. We had a wonderful day. When we thought back， we found it was an important celebration， because soon after， things began to change for my parents.

    1.Bob married Nancy because of ______.

    A. her nice appearance                    B. her good education

    C. her romantic nature                    D. her position as an office girl

    2. When the writer told the story， the mother was probably ______ years old.

    A. 60                  B. 70                  C. 80                 D. 90

    3. What do we know about the writer‘s parents？

    A. Their marriage is a total failure.

    B. They had different hobbies.

    C. They had serious money problem.

    D. They stopped quarrelling after they had children.

    4. The purpose for the writer to hold the party is ______.

    A. to recall the 60 years‘ marriage life of her parents

    B. to stop the long fighting between her parents

    C. just to celebrate her parents‘ 60th anniversary

    D. to have a good time for family‘s reunion

    Passage Twelve

    What can you do to recall your dreams more often and interpret them more clearly？ The experts offer these suggestions：

    Develop an idea. Before you go to sleep， consciously think about a topic or a person you‘d like to dream about. Raise a question that’s troubling you and see how your dream responds to it.

    Keep track. Next to your bed， place a pen and some paper， or a tape recorder or laptop， to record your dreams as soon as you wake up.

    Try to wake up naturally， without the help of an alarm clock or barking dog that can interrupt

    your dream cycle. If your schedule doesn‘t allow you to sleep in during the week， begin your dream journey on a weekend or during a vacation.

    Wake up slowly. For the first moment after you wake up， lie still and keep your eyes closed， because your dream may be connected to your body position while you slept. Try to recall the dream and then store it in your memory by giving it a name like “Late for an exam” or “My Date with Ashley Judd”。 When you rise， immediately write down as many images， feelings and impressions as you can.

    Connect the dots. To better interpret your dreams， try to make connections between you recalled dreams and recent events. Do you recognize people from the present or past？ Can you detect any themes from the dream？ Look for patterns over several dreams that might help explain an individual dream.

    Change the outcome. If you have nightmares happening again and again that make it difficult to sleep， try to change the endings. Once you wake up from a bad dream， imagine a change in the action to create a more positive outcome. If you are trapped， try to fly. In your dream， you can do what you want！

    1.The passage advices you to “wake up slowly” ______.

    A.because dreaming usually happens not long before you wake up

    B.because sleeping posture may be related to your dream

    C.so as not to connect your dreams

    D.so as not to have a nightmare

    2.The underlined word “rise” （Paragraph5） means “______”。

    A. come up            B. stand up             C. wake up           D. get up

    3. According to the passage， how can you overcome a nightmare？

    A. Try to imagine you are a superman.        B. Try to create a new ending of the nightmare.

    C. Try to think about some happy things.      D. Try to forget the nightmare.

    4. In which column of a magazine or newspaper may the article appear？

    A. Finance.              B. Sports.              C. Health.             D. Politics.
