Recently, my husband and I had the chance to do something good for two people who were complete strangers to us. It made us feel so good to be able to do it that I thought I should share, We were traveling to Thailand on New Year's Day with our family. Since I travel a lot for work, we have had enough flying miles to become the VIP (very important person.) of the flight to enjoy first class(头等舱) seats.

As we were sitting in the very first two seats in the first row of first class waiting for the plane to take off, I heard one of the flight attendants (航班服务员) telling the others that there was a young couple sitting in the back of the plane that had just been married several days before and were going on their honeymoon(蜜月). They had ordered their flight eight months before but, for some reason, had not been able to get seats together. No one else on the plane wanted to move and the bride(新娘) was in tears.

I turned to my husband and told him what I heard. We agreed without thinking twice and I called the flight attendant over to tell her that we would be happy to give up our seats for this young couple, The flight attendant seemed shocked and amazed and said. "Really? Are you sure?"

We said. "Sure!"

So, we moved to the back of the plane, I was in a middle seat in the back part and my husband,who is 63, in the window seat of the last row of the plane.

   The flight attendants were very thankful for what we had done and cared for us carefully even though we were no longer sitting in first class, and we both made friends with the people sitting around us and had a great flight. I had to go back to the front of the plane to get a forgotten object back during the flight and noticed that the young couple were sitting very close together, happily sipping champagne (品尝香槟).

It really made my New Year to get on to such a wonderful start!

任务型阅读,根据短文内容,回答下列问题。
The English language is changing all the time. New words are created, like DIY, SDA and e-mail. How do words come into English? Many words are borrowed from other languages. From Chinese, for example, English has borrowed words like kowtow and kung fu.
Words have also come into English in unusual ways. Words like classroom and mooncake are two short words which are put together. Also, parts of two words are put together and become a new word. For example, smog comes from smoke and fog. Some words come from longer words, like TV from television, and math from mathematics. Don’t you think all these make English an interesting language?

The world is not hungry,but it’s thirsty. 1while we say we are short of water.Why?Because about 97% of water on the earth is sea water which we can‘t drink or use for watering plants directly.Man can only drink and use the 3% of water that comes from rivers and lakes. 2,because some of it has been polluted.
  Now more water is needed.The problem is how we can avoid a serious water shortage in the future. 3 Scientists are making study in this field.Today,In most large cities water is used only once and then runs to the sea or rivers.but it can be used again.Even if every large city reused its water,the water will still not be enough.4 .
  The sea seems to give us the best answer.There is a lot of water in the sea.All that needs to be get the salt out of the sea water.This will be expensive,but it has already been used in many parts of the world. 6So you see,if we can find out a way,we’ll be in no danger of drying up.
