One day, a poor boy who was trying to pay his way through school by selling goods door to door found that he had ten cents left. He was hungry so he decided to beg* for a meal at the next house.
However, he lost his courage when a lovely young woman opened the door. He only asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked hungry so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, and then asked, "How much do I pay you?"
"You don't pay me anything," she replied. "Mother has taught me never to accept the pay for a kindness." He said, "Then I thank you from the bottom of my heart." As Howard Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger physically*, but it also increased his believe in God and the whole human. He was about to give up and stop before this point.
Years later the young woman became fairly ill. The local doctors had no idea to deal with her illness. They finally sent her to the big city, where specialists* can be called in to study her strange disease. Dr. Howard Kelly, now famous was called in for the consultation*. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a light filled his eyes. Immediately, he got up and went down through the hospital hall into her room. Dressed in his doctor's uniform he went in to see her. He recognized her at once. He went back to the consultation room and decided to do his best to save her life. From that day on, he gave special attention to her.
After Howard Kelly and his workmates worked hard for a long time, they won and the woman was saved. Dr. Kelly asked the business office to pass the final bill to him for agreement. He looked at it and then wrote something on the side. The bill was sent to her room. She was afraid to open it because she was sure that it would take the rest of her life to pay it off. Finally she looked, and the note on the side of the bill caught her attention. She read these words:
"Paid." (Signed) Dr. Howard Kelly

How did men first learn to invent words? It is still unknown to people; in other words, the origin* of language is a mystery. All we suppose is that some early men invented certain sounds, in one way or another, to express thoughts and feelings,actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined* to present those sounds, and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words.
We are sure that the power of words lies in their associations-- the things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words make us think of the glad and sad things of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something increases.
Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which strongly appeal to people and have great effect on our minds and feelings. This lovely and wonderful use of words is what we call literary* style. Above all, the real poet is a owner of words. He can express his meaning in words which sing like music and which by their position* and association can move men to tears. We should learn to choose our words carefully and use them true, or they will make our speech silly and low.From the passage, we learn that language might begin with .

An old man called Xie Liang, 80, has given free help to people who ask for directions for 8 years.

The reporter of Beijing Youth Daily had an interview with Xie. At that time, he arrived at the bus stop and placed his little table with maps and guidebooks written by himself on it.

Look at the picture of an office worker’s desk. Notice how the baskets on the secretary’s desk have labels(标签). Labels help office workers know what something is for and where something may be.
Read the labels. What do you think they mean?
In each basket are job tasks that a secretary needs to do or has completed. The labels tell her what must be done with the jobs in the drawer.
For example, one drawer has this label: To Be Done ASAP( ASAP means As Soon As Possible.) Let’s say someone needs a copy of a letter and puts it in that basket.
What would you think the secretary would do?
The secretary would copy the letter as soon as she could. Then she would give it back to the person right away. That is the main point of the label: the tasks in this drawer need to be done right away.
The other labels also have a main point.
IN: The tasks need to be done.
OUT: The tasks are finished and can go back to the persons who sent the tasks.
MAIL: The tasks must go to the post office.
TO BE FILED: The tasks must be put in the file drawers.
In which basket would you put the following things? Write the label of the basket.
| A. a contract(合同) that must be copied right away B. reports that must be filed away C. a letter that needs be signed(签字) D. an iphone 5 that should be fixed at once E. a meeting schedule that has been typed F. a user’s guide that must be sent to a buyer |
