Alice was now in a long dark room with doors all round the walls, and she could not see the White Rabbit anywhere.
She tried to open the doors, but they were all locked (锁上的). “How will I ever get out again?” she thought sadly. Then she saw a little glass table with three legs, and on the top of it was a very small gold key. Alice quickly took the key and tried it in all the doors, but she couldn’t open any.
Then she saw another door, a door that was only forty centimetres high. The little gold key unlocked this door easily, but Alice couldn’t get through it—she was much too big. So she lay on the floor and looked through the open door, into a beautiful garden with green trees and bright flowers.
“I’d like to be out there—not in this dark room. Why can’t I get smaller?” It was already a very strange day, and Alice was beginning to think that anything was possible.
After a while she locked the door again, got up and went back to the glass table. She put the key down and then she saw a little bottle on the table. Round the neck of the bottle was a piece of paper with the words DRINK ME in large letters.
“It can be dangerous to drink out of strange bottles,” she said. “What will it do to me?”She drank a little bit very slowly. The taste was very nice and very soon Alice finished the bottle.
“I think I’m getting smaller and smaller every second.” And she was. “And now,” she said happily, “I can get through the little door into that beautiful garden.”
She ran at once to the door. Then she remembered that the little gold key was back on the glass table. She ran back to the table for it, but she was now much too small! The key was high above her, on top of the table. She tried very hard to climb up the table leg, but she couldn’t do it.
At last, tired and unhappy, she got angry with herself. Soon she saw a little glass box near her on the floor. She opened it, and found a very small cake with the words EAT Me on it.

China is the home of tea, which has more than 4000 years of history. People all over China drink tea daily. Of the three main drinks—tea, coffee and cocoa, tea is drunk by the largest number of people in the world. Tea from China, along with silk and porcelain (瓷器),began to be known by the world over a thousand years ago and has been an important Chinese export (出口商品) since then.
The world for tea in different languages came from the Chinese character, “cha”. The English word, “tea”, sounds similar to the pronunciation of it in Xiamen, Fujian Province. The Russians call it “chai’i”, which sounds like “chaye”(tea leaves) as it is pronounced in northern China. The Japanese character for tea is written exactly the same as it is in Chinese, though it is pronounced a little differently.
Tea leaves are produced mainly in the south of China, because of the mild (温和的) climate (气候) and rich soil (土壤) there. Longjing , Pu’er, Wulong and Tieguanyin are all famous tea. They’re produced in the provinces of Zhejiang, Yunnan and Fujian.
Over the past centuries, Chinese people have developed their unique (独特的) tea culture, which includes tea planting, tea-leaf picking, tea making, tea drinking, and so on. Tea is also a popular theme which is often mentioned in dances, songs, poems and novels.

I had little in the way of money when I took this job in Ft. Lauderdale. One noon, I felt very hungry, so I sat outside at a little park and had a small piece of bread, ate half with a glass of water. I was OK with that. I thought about my work and enjoyed the sun, birds and people, taking out any problems I had.
A tall man walked to me who was not dressed well and began a conversation about little things. I always dressed clean and neat well. So he thought I had money. He said, “Could you please give me some money?”
I said, “I don’t have any.”
He kept on asking, and I said, “I really don’t have any.”
He then became sarcastic and said, “I know the persons like you, you wouldn’t give anybody anything.”
That made me mad. I became angry because he doubted me. I looked at him and gave my wallet to him, “Look in my wallet.”
He then said “sorry” to me and opened his wallet and said, “Here I will give you some.”
I looked at him in surprise and said, “No, thank you.” Then I walked away.
It’s good to remember that people can always surprise you.

At school: When students around us begin to push each other,we need to stand still and try to hold onto something,or stay in a corner until the crowd leaves.If we fall down in a moving crowd,use both hands to cover the head.Lean to one side,curl up(蜷缩) our body and bend(使弯曲) the legs.
In a fire:Stay calm.Leave the classroom quickly under the directions of the teachers.Smoke can be more dangerous than fire,so use a piece of cloth to cover our mouth and nose.What will we do if the clothes burn?

Have you ever dreamed about sending a letter to yourself or your friends in the future? While express mail represents high speed,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 senior high school student in Hefei,instructs one of the companies offering the service.
Lin Xiaofan wrote the letter to her mother in advance to express her love to her mother for next Mother's Day.
"Offering this service makes people slow down and let them understand the meaning of 'time' in another way," said Zheng Zhimin,manager at a "future mail" company in Hefei. Zheng thinks "future mail" letters are "reminders 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 complete an acceptance form and make an assessment(评估) so they can be compensated(赔偿) if their letters or goods are lost or damaged.
Most of the business' customers are college students and young white-collar workers.Psychologists said young Chinese might have a new way to express their feelings through this service.
"Most people put their hopes and wishes in the letter so they can experience the connection between the past and the present while they receive the letter.It can help people re-understand the meaning of 'time' ," said Wang Kaiyu,a sociologist in Anhui Province.Express mail is a(n) ____ way to send your letters.
