She stopped to speak to Mr. Lee, and I knew I could see Mr. Lee any 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 stuck with me from that day until now. She said, “You let that be the last time you’ve ever walked by somebody and not opened up your mouth to speak, because even a dog will wag its tail when it passes you on the street.” Mother’s words sound simple, but it’s been a guidepost for me and the foundation of who I am.‎ ‎    It’s not just something I believe in; it’s become a way of life. I believe that every person deserves to feel someone acknowledge their presence, no matter how humble(卑微的) they may be.‎ ‎    At work, I always said hello to the founder of the company and asked him how our business was doing. But I also spoke to the people who cleaned the buildings and asked how their children were doing. After a few years of greeting the founder, 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.”‎ ‎    I’ve become vice­president, but that hasn’t changed the way I approach people. I still follow my mother’s advice. I speak to everyone I see, no matter where I am. I’ve learned that speaking to people creates a pathway into their world, and it allows them to come into mine, too.‎ ‎1.What did the author do when he met Mr. Lee? A.He talked with somebody else.

D.It can bring him what he wants.‎ ‎（C）‎ ‎.People generally tend to pick out the best-looking fruits and vegetables when shopping for produce(农产品), but Canadian supermarket chain Loblaws is attracting customers with badly-shaped and faulty produce at the price of 30% lower than normal-looking one.‎ A trial run of the ugly food line, named "Naturally Imperfect", began with only apples and potatoes to choose from. Consumer demand has been so huge that Loblaws is going to introduce more ugly vegetables and fruits like onions and mushrooms.‎ All the produce that will be sold through Naturally Imperfect would otherwise have been used in juices, sauces, or soups, or have not been harvested at all. The director Dan Branson explained that this program benefited both food producers who would otherwise have to let abnormal produce go to waste,and consumers who could buy fresh produce at low prices. And he was right, given how popular the line has become.‎ ‎"It really went well beyond our expectation," Branson said. "I think it really spoke to the fact that Canadians are out there really looking for some choices."‎ Of course, Canadians know that beauty is more than skin deep, and they also recognize that they can get the same flavor and nutritional benefits in spite of appearances. The positive response(响应) to the initial offering of apples and potatoes showed the opportunity to expand the line and offer more choices at a greater price to Canadian families.‎ ‎"If you grow produce in your backyard, there will be a lot of produce that won't look as pretty as what you will see in a grocery store,” said Branson. "And nature doesn’t grow everything perfectly. I’d like to think if somebody were to take a No Name Naturally Imperfect apple, put it right beside a No. 1 apple, close his eyes and eat them, there would be no difference."‎ ‎1.Loblaws is different from other supermarkets in that _________. A.more fruits are offered at lower prices ‎ B.normal-looking produce is not allowed there C.imperfect produce is sold at lower prices there D.only apples and potatoes are sold every ‎ day 2.According to Paragraph 3, Loblaws's program __________. A.prevents people from wasting their food B.happens to be a win-win mode C.teaches food producers how to grow food D.enables consumers to eat more fresh produce 3.What is Paragraph 5 mainly about? A.Canadians are used to eating perfect produce. B.Smart consumers know the importance of ugly produce. C.Loblaws intends to improve customers' quality of life. D.Customers’ support promotes the development of the ugly food line. 4.What do Branson’s words in the last paragraph mainly tell us? A.We should eat imperfect apples with our eyes closed. B.The world is usually full of imperfect things. C.Imperfect fruits are as tasty as perfect ones. D.The fruits grown by ourselves are more nutritious than those in the store.‎ ‎（D）‎ ‎.Teens and younger children are reading a lot less for fun, according to a Common Sense Media report published Monday.‎ While the decline over the past decade is steep for teen readers, some data in the report shows that reading remains a big part of many children’s lives, and indicates how parents might help encourage more reading.‎ According to the report’s key findings, "the proportion (比例) who say they 4 hardly ever" read for fun has gone from 8 percent of 13-year-olds and 9 percent of 17-year-olds in 1984 to 22 percent and 27 percent respectively today.‎ The report data shows that pleasure reading levels for younger children, ages 2-8, remain largely the same. But the amount of time spent in reading each session has declined, from closer to an hour or more to closer to a half hour per session.‎ When it comes to technology and reading, the report does little to counsel (建议) parents looking for data about the effect of e-readers and tablets on reading. It does point out that many parents still limit electronic reading, mainly due to concerns about increased screen time.‎ The most hopeful data shared in the report shows clear evidence of parents serving as examples and important guides for their kids when it comes to reading. Data shows that kids and teens who do read frequently, compared to infrequent readers, have more books in the home, more books purchased for them, parents who read more often, and parents who set aside time for them to read.‎ As the end of school approaches, and school vacation reading lists loom (逼近) ahead, parents might take this chance to step in and make their own summer reading list and plan a family trip to the library or bookstore.‎ ‎1.What is the Common Sense Media report probably about? A.Children's reading habits. B.Quality of children's books. C.Children's after-class activities. D.Parent-child relationships. 2.Where can you find the data that best supports "children are reading a lot less for fun"? A.In Paragraph 2. B.In Paragraph 3. ‎ C.In Paragraph 4. D.In Paragraph 5. 3.Why do many parents limit electronic reading? A.E-books are of poor quality. B.It could be a waste of time. C.It may harm children's health. D.E-readers are expensive. 4.How should parents encourage their children to read more? A.Act as role models for them. B.Ask them to write book reports. C.Set up reading groups for them. D.Talk with their reading class teachers.‎ ‎（E）‎ How to Keep a Relationship Healthy and Strong Are you new to experiencing relationships? Well, let me give you advice on having a healthy and possibly long-term relationship.‎ ‎①_______Do not hide things from them, do not lie. Don’t be afraid to say things that aren’t very flattering about yourself. Getting them to trust you is the most important element in any relationship. If there’s no trust, there’s nothing there. So please be honest and they'll learn to open up to ‎ you. Make sure you give them respect. Now respect isn't just simply treating her or him nicely. There’s a lot more to it. You have to learn to adjust to their liking.②_______Don’t just think about yourself, think about what your partner needs out of it as well.‎ ‎③_______Always be willing to help them and give them honesty and positivity at the same time. Make them feel you are someone they can really count on and build a future with. This is an important step in a relationship. Your partner has to be able to count on you when needed. ‎ Make sure you have a good sense of humor with them. Laughter is the key to happiness. Laugh a lot with them, joke with them. Laughter may seem silly, but it’s the secret to a lot in life. It will keep the sparks alive.④_______‎ Make sure the communication is good. This goes along with trust, but always communicate how you feel, even if it ' s something that upsets you. Instead of screaming, talk to them.⑤_______It’s important to communicate this to them, not keep it bottled up.‎ A. Show them your personality.‎ B. Be an honest person with them.‎ C. Make sure you are reliable to your partner.‎ D. Laughter keeps the relationship strong and lasting.‎ E. Don’t start to neglect them and make them feel unwanted.‎ F.
