【推荐1】I’m from Poland. Christmastime is my favorite time of year.
We start on December 24th. It is a very important day for Polish Christian people. On Christmas Eve in the morning, families decorate Christmas tree and we put presents under the tree. In the afternoon we meet with family and eat a special dinner without meat. We leave a free seat at the table for an unexpected (出乎意料的) guest. At the beginning, we wait for a first star and later we share the special wafer (薄饼) and we wish all the best each other. A traditional Christmas dinner should be 12 dishes. After dinner we sing Christmas carols together and some kids go carol singing and get some money or sweets. We go to church at midnight.
The next day, on December 25, it is Christmas day. We spend time with family and we visit friends.

【推荐1】People often get to try some new food when they travel. That is part of the fun of travelling. Here are four people’s experiences with foreign food.
David King is a Chinese student in France. “ I never had cheese or even milk before I came to France. We seldom see cows in my part of China. So I don’t drink milk or have things made from milk. I drank some milk when I first arrived in France. I hated it! I tried cheese, too, and I didn’t like it. But I love ice cream. The milk in it doesn’t taste bad.”
Birgit is from Sweden.She travelled to Australia on vacation.”I was in a restaurant. I heard some other people order flake, so I ordered some, too.It was delicious!Later, I learned that flake is an Australian name for shark. Now, every time I see new food, I am willing to try it. You know why? I remember how much I enjoyed flake.”
Chandra is a doctor in Texas. She is from India. “I’m afraid to try new foods because maybe there is beef in them.I’m a Hindu and my religion(信仰)stops me from eating meat from the cow.”
Nathan is from the United States. He taught for a year in China. “My friend gave me some 100﹣year eggs to eat. I didn’t like their looking at all.

【推荐1】I work at a company (公司) where there are about a number of employees. I can’t say that I know them all by name, but I know most of them. Because it’s all based on one simple principle: I believe every single person should be respected, however small or simple the greeting is.
When I was about ten years old, I was walking down the street with my mother. She stopped to speak to Mr. Lee. I was busy trying to throw a rock at the “O” in the stop sign. I knew I could see Mr. Lee any old time around the neighborhood, so I didn’t pay any attention to him. After we passed Mr. Lee, my mother stopped me and said something that has been with me from that day until now. She said, “You let that be the last time you ever walk by somebody and not open up your mouth to speak, because even a dog can wag its tail when it passes you on the street.”
From that day on, this sentence has always been in my heart. I believe that every person deserves (应得) to feel someone acknowledge (承认) their presence, no matter how low their social position may be or even how important.
I remembered after a few years of passing by the boss, I had the courage to ask him for a meeting. We had a great talk. At a certain point, I asked him how far he thought I could go in his company. He said, “If you want to, you can get all the way to this seat.”
The day you speak to someone who has his head held down and when he lifts it up and smiles, you realize how powerful it is just to open your mouth and say, “Hello.”

“Color, color, color!” are the words of artist Eric Carle.
Eric is like the king in the world of children’s books. He has written over 70 children’s books. His most famous book, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, is common on children’s bookshelves all over the world. What most people don’t know is that Eric also makes art for adults, which is called “ArtArt”. People didn’t know about it, because he didn’t show it to the public until he was 84 years old!
Like Eric’s children’s books, his “ArtArt” is full of bright and clear color. He says that he loves color so much because he missed it during the war in Germany. Eric was born in New York in 1929, but moved to Germany with his family when he was 6. When he was 10, World War II began. He noticed that all the houses and buildings in his town were painted grey, brown or dark green. It was a sad time, and it seemed like there was no color anywhere.
At the end of the war, “when color came back”, Eric explains, “I just loved it so much. I keep saying that I wish our eyes could see more color. Color is a very important part of my work.”
That’s true. Eric paints bright colors on paper, cuts out shapes, and then glues them onto another piece of paper. This method is called collage. In fact, it is what led Eric to his “ArtArt”.
Eric’s “ArtArt” includes large collages as well as paintings, photographs and even costurnes. In all these works, he uses all kinds of colors-everything from purple to light green to orange. Now that’s a lot of color!
1. When did Eric show “ArtArt” to the public?A.In 1929. | B.In 1993. | C.In 1997. | D.In 2013. |
A.Because he could hardly see bright color. |
B.Because he had to join the army to fight. |
C.Because he couldn’t draw very good paintings. |
D.Because he lived a very poor life with his parents. |
A.Collage plays an important part in Eric’s book “ArtArt”. |
B.Children know little about The Very Hungry Caterpillar. |
C.Eric has created more books for adults than for children. |
D.Eric moved to Germany with his family when he was 10. |
A.Eric created collages for his books. |
B.Eric’s “ArtArt” is popular with people. |
C.Eric’s love for color led him to success. |
