We all enjoy read short stories by O. Henry, such as “The last leaf” and “The Gift of Magi”.

Fewer writers in the world have ever put into prison. And even fewer took great success in prison. While O. Henry, the famous short story writer, was one of him. O. Henry, his real name was William Sidney Porter, was born on September 11, 1862.

In 1884, O. Henry entered the First National Bank as teller (出納). On February 10, 1896, Henry was said to have something to do with the disappearance of $1,150 from the bank. He was sentenced to five years imprisonment

In order to make money support his family, O. Henry began write stories to magazines. These stories became quiet popular with readers.

O. Henry died in New York in January 5, 1910. He was buried in North Carolina, the state where he was born.

To develop one’s taste in English,the most effective way is to read English books extensively. However, one may be at a loss to choose the appropriate books,especially as a beginner.I would like to share some of my experience.

My first English novel was Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice,recommended by many English teachers and professors as an ideal book for English learners. But I had great difficulty in understanding the novel,let alone enjoying it. It’s not the vocabulary that troubled me,but rather the way Austen constructs sentences,and her way of thinking,which seemed too remote to me at that time. My fading enthusiasm was much recovered after reading Hemingway’s novel Farewell to Arms. I particularly liked his brief and lively style. So my first suggestion is,as a beginner, you’d better choose contemporary novels instead of classical ones.

However,reading novels is not the only way to improve your English. English essays can at once inform you,entertain you, and improve your taste in English. The best example is Bertrand Russell’s work. Its language is plain, yet you cannot help feeling the elegance and the unique sense of humor. His simple language enables his philosophy(哲理) within the reach of ordinary people. Here comes my second suggestion—essays are indispensable.

Never follow other’s opinions blindly,however famous or influential the person might be. As a saying goes,one man’s meat is another man’s poison. With that in mind,we are sure to find out our favorite writers through reading and develop our fine taste in English.

1.What made the author’s first English novel hard to understand?

A. Complex conversations.

B. Not knowing the social background.

C. The old-fashioned vocabulary.

D. Sentences and Austen’s thinking pattern.

2.Which can best replace the underlined word“ indispensable”?

A. necessary B. challenging

C. related D. inspired

3.What advice does the author give in the last paragraph?

A. Choose books that challenging us most.

B. Read books that are instructive.

C. Don’t be affected by other’s choices.

D. Compare books before buying.

4.What is the author’s purpose of writing the passage?

A. Give comments on literature works.

B. Tell beginners how to choose English books.

C. Encourage people to read more English books.

D. Recommend first-class books to English learners.

Dear Diary,

Here I am in the middle of a city, 350 miles far away from our farmhouse. Do you want to know why we move last week? Dad lost his job, and as Mom explained, “He is lucky to find other one.” His new job meant I had to say goodbye to my classmate, my school and just everything else I love in the world. To make things bad, now I have to share a room to my younger sister, Maggie. Tomorrow is first day of school. I am very tiring, but I know I’ll never fall asleep.

Good night or remember, you, dear diary, is my only souvenir of my past life and my only friend.

Yours

Rosemary

What are some of the steps a person can take to prevent his house from being broken in while he or she is away? One step is to make sure that the house has a live-in look. Living room shades could be pulled down only half-away. Bedrooms that usually have the shades pulled down at night should be left down. Another is to make sure that all outside looks are the dead-belt(帶) type. Still another is to leave several low-watt(瓦) lights burning and make sure that one is in the kitchen. Lights that turn on and off automatically(自動地) are the best. Then, too, it is a good idea to leave a radio turned into a talking station. Any type of conversation makes a burglar(盜賊) think twice before trying to enter. Finally, while away on vacation, make sure that nothing collected in the front or back of the house. Make certain that the newspaper is stopped and that a trusted neighbor has been asked to pick up the posts.

One advantage of the Internet is shopping conveniently online for clothes; one disadvantage of the Internet is also shopping conveniently online for clothes.

“Nothing fits,” said Lam Yuk Wong, a senior in electrical and computer engineering at Rice University. “Everyone says this. They order clothes and they don’t fit. People get very unhappy.”

Wong and her design partner, Xuaner “Cecilia” Zhang, are Team White Mirror, creators of what they call a “virtual (虛擬)fitting room”. Their goal is simple and consumer-friendly: to let online clothing shoppers have a perfect fit and a perfect look when shopping every time. Both women are from China, Wong from Hong Kong and Zhang from Beijing. They both order most of their clothing online. They got the idea from their own experience as consumers and from listening to the complaints of friends and relatives. “They say, ‘The color is wrong’ or ‘I got the right size but it still does not fit.’ We want to make it like you’re in the store trying on the clothes,” Zhang said.

Using a Kinect developed by Microsoft for use with its Xbox 360 video game player, Zhang scans Wong and turns her image into, in effect, a virtual model, keeping Wong’s dimensions (尺寸), and even her skin and hair color. “We put the clothes on the shopper’s 3-D body models and show how they look when they are dressed,” Wong said. So far, Wong and Zhang have adapted the software to show dresses and shirts, and they are now working on shorts.

Asked if she thought men as well as women might be interested in using their virtual fitting room, Wong said, “I think their wives will care about this, so it will also be important to men.”

1.Why is shopping conveniently online for clothes a disadvantage?

A.Students may easily get addicted to it.

B.Clothes bought online may not fit.

C.It attracts more online clothing shoppers.

D.It causes shoppers to waste too much money.

2.Wong and Zhang got the idea to design a virtual fitting room from ____.

A. their shopping experiences

B. a program at their university

C. some shop-owners’ complaints

D. the Xbox 360 video game player

3.Which of the following shows the process of using the virtual fitting room?

A. scanning -- trying on clothes -- getting images

B. trying on clothes -- getting models -- scanning

C. scanning -- getting models --trying on clothes

D. trying on clothes -- getting images -- scanning

4.What did Wong think of her virtual fitting room?

A. It is perfectly developed.

B. It will have its market share.

C. It is limited to women shoppers.

D. It is like a kind of video game player.
