I live with my grandmother in a Beijing yard house. One day last year, I was surprised to see a big foreigner coming out of the house next door to ours. He was very tall with short brown hair and a pair of glasses.

The first time I saw him, I was too shy to speak to him. “My English is too bad!” I thought. My grandmother told me that he had just moved into our yard. “I don’t like it!” she said, “Foreigners aren’t like us. Maybe he’ll play loud music and parties every night! I’m sure he’s going to cause trouble.”

Several days later, I met the foreigner as I was walking home after work. “Hello!” he said (in Chinese！). “My name’s Tony. I’ve just moved into the house next door to yours.” While I was wondering what to say, he continued, “ There’s a nice bar（酒吧） down the road. Why don’t you and your family come and have dinner with me?” “Bars are bad places,” said my grandmother when I told her, but we decided to go.

The bar was not at all what I had expected. It was in a beautiful little yard house, with several large bookshelves and pictures of Tibet on the walls. Several Chinese people and foreigners were sitting drinking or reading books. I noticed that some of the foreigners were speaking Chinese in a low voice to each other!

“Oh, what a civilized place!” my grandmother exclaimed.

The bar served（提供） special “hutong pizzas”. As we ate, Tony told us about himself-he is an English expert（专家） in environment (环境). He always likes to be quiet. My grandmother said to me, “He really seems like a very nice young man.”

(    ) 29. When the writer first saw the foreigners, she______.

    A. was frightened to him         B. wanted to practice English with him

    C. felt too shy to speak to him     D. hoped to invite the foreigner to the bar

(    ) 30. What’s the meaning of the word “civilized” in the passage?

       A.文明的              B.喧闹的           C.野蛮的         D.讨厌的

(    ) 31. Which of the following sentence is NOT true?

A. Tony made a lot of noise every night.       

B. Tony was an English expert in environment.

C. There were some foreigners speaking Chinese in the bar.

D. The grandmother thought Tony caused some trouble.

(    ) 32. The best title for this story is______.

      A. A Bar in Tibet   B. A Foreigner in Beijing   

      C. Bars are bad places    D. Foreigners like bars

( C )

Have you ever dreamed about sending a letter to yourself or your friends in the future? While express mail(快递) is a fast way to send your letters, there is another type of mail appearing in China as a new business—future mail.

“The letter should be sent next Mother’s Day and not a day earlier!” Lin Xiaofan, a college student in Shanghai, tells one of the companies offering the service.

Lin Xiaofan wrote the letter to her mother nearly a year earlier to express her love to her mother for next Mother’s Day.

“Offering this service makes people slow down and lets them understand the meaning of “time” in another way,” said Zheng Zhimin, manager at a “future mail” company. Zheng thinks “future mail” letters help remind us of care, friendship and love.

While “future mail” is becoming more and more popular, some people are wondering what will happen if the postal address changes or if the company goes broken before the letters arrive.

Zheng said customers are glad to sign a contract(签订合同) to make sure that they can be compensated if their letters are lost or damaged.

Most of the customers are college students and young white-collar(白领) workers. Psychologists (心理学家) said that young Chinese might have a new way to show their feelings through this service. Most people put their hopes and wishes in the letter so that they can experience the connection(联系) between the past and the present when they receive the letter.

(    ) 33．The “future mail” service is popular among ______.

A．junior students  B．college students   C．young children   D．blue-collar workers

(    ) 34．The “future mail” service can help us ______.

A. sign a contract         B. express our love and care  

C. forget friendship        D. understand the meaning of “time” in a wrong way

(    ) 35．You’d better use “future mail” if you want to ______.

A．save money from sending express mail

B．send a birthday gift to your friend quickly

       C．talk with your friends about your life freely  

       D．send your best wishes to yourself on January 1, 2020

If you think you are too shy and want to be a little bit braver, just try the following things.

Be open to others. Tell people you are shy. There is no need to hide it. When they get to know you are a shy kid, they will understand you better. This also helps you feel more comfortable in talks.

Try to smile more. When you smile , people think you are friendly and easy to talk with. Remember that other people have feelings, too; and most people will stay away from an angry-looking face.

Learn to be a good talker. If you find it hard to start a conversation, say something nice about people around you. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to that person?

Get your attention elsewhere. Think more about ways to enjoy parties or games. Don’t waste time worrying about your look or whether people like you or not. You will become relaxed and find it’s not so hard to talk with others.

Take one small step at a time. Each time when you say “Hi!” or smile at someone, say to yourself “You can make it.” Keep trying and one day you’ll never feel shy when you talk to others.
