Can you understand the following sentence?

"My smmr hols wr CWOT. B4, we used 2 go 2 NY 2C my bro, his GF & 3 kds FTF. "

The Scottish teacher who received it in class had no idea what the girt who wrote it meant. The essay was written in a form of English used in cell phone text messages. Text messages（also called SMS）through cell phones became very popular in the late 1990s. At first, mobile phone companies thought that text messaging would be a good way to send messages to customers, but customers quickly began to use the text messaging service to send messages to each other. Teenagers in particular enjoyed using text messaging, and they began to create a new language for messages called "texting".

A text message is limited to 160 characters, including letters, spaces, and numbers, so messages must be kept short. In addition, typing on the small key pad of a cell phone is difficult, so it's common to make words shorter. In texting, a single letter or number can represent a word, like "r" for "are", "u" for "you", and "2" for "two". Several letters can also represent a phrase, like "lol" for "laughing out loud". Another characteristic of texting is the leaving out of letters in a word, like spelling "please" as "pls".

Some parents and teachers worry that texting will make children bad spellers and bad writers. The student who wrote the essay at the top of this page said writing in that way was more comfortable for her.（The essay said, "My summer holidays were a complete waste of time. Before, we used to go to New York to see my brother, his girlfriend, and their three kids face to face."）

Not everyone agreed that texting is a bad thing. Some experts say languages always develop, and this is just another way in which English is changing. Other people believe texting will disappear soon. New technology for voice messages may soon make text messages a thing of the past.

【1】What is the writer's opinion of text messaging?

A.The writer does not give his opinions. B.It is not bad for children.

C.It will make children bad writers. D.It is fun and easy to do.

【2】Which characteristic of texting is NOT described in the passage?

A.Using letters to represent words. B.Using phrases to represent essays.

C.Using letters to represent phrases. D.Using numbers to represent words.

【3】Why do some people think that texting is bad?

A.It costs too much. B.It's too difficult to type.

C.Teenagers won't learn to write correctly. D.It's not comfortable.

【4】Why aren't some people worried about the effect of texting?

A.Not many people use texting. B.Spelling in English is too difficult.

C.Teenagers quickly become bored with texting. D.Texting will disappear because of new technology.

【5】Which is the best title for the passage?

A.Texting. B.A text message.

C.A bad thing. D.The text messaging service.

【6】Not everyone agree that texting is a ________.

A.bad thing B.good thing C.badly thing D.worst thing

26、Some years ago on a hot summer day in south Florida, a little boy decided to go for a swim in the lake behind his house. He ran out of the back door, leaving behind shoes, socks and shirt as he went.

He flew into the water, not realizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake, an alligator (鳄鱼) was getting close. The mother in the house was looking out of the window and saw the two as they got closer and closer together. In great fear, she ran toward the water, shouting to her son as loudly as she could. Hearing her voice, the little boy made a U-turn to swim to his mother. It was too late. Just as he reached her, the alligator reached him. The mother caught her little boy by the arms just as the alligator pulled his legs. That began an unbelievable tug-of-war (拔河赛) between the two. The alligator was much stronger than the mother, but the mother did her best not to let her son go. A farmer happened to drive by, heard their screams (尖叫), rushed from his truck and helped them.

Luckily, after weeks and weeks in the hospital, the little boy survived. His legs were seriously scarred (疤痕) by the terrible attack of the animal. And on his arms, were deep scars where his mother’s finger nails (指甲) dug into his arms in her effort to pull the son she loved.

The newspaper reporter, who interviewed the boy, asked if he would show him his scars. The boy lifted the legs. And then, he said to the reporter, “Look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my mum wouldn’t let me go.”

27、I made a decision on the way down to the vacation beach cottage to meet my family. For two weeks, I would try to be a loving husband and father. Totally loving. No ifs, ands or buts.

The idea had come to me as I listened to a talk on my car radio. The speaker was reading a Biblical about husbands’ being thoughtful of their wives. Then he went on to say, “Love is an act of will. A person can choose to love.” To myself, I had to say that I had been a selfish husband. Well, for two weeks that would change.

And it did. Right from the moment I kissed Mary at the door and said, “That new yellow sweater looks great on you.”

“Oh, Tom, you noticed,” she said, surprised and pleased. Maybe a little confused(困惑). After the long drive, I wanted to sit and read. Mary suggested a walk on the beach. I started to refuse, but then I thought, “Mary’s been here with the kid all week and now she wants to be alone with me.” We walked on the beach while the children flew their kites.

So it went. Two weeks of not calling the company where I am a manager, and a visit to the shell museum though I usually hate museums. Relaxed and happy, that is how the whole vacation passed. I made a new decision to keep on remembering to choose love.

There was one thing that went wrong with my experiment, however. Mary and I still laugh about it today. On the last night at our cottage, preparing for bed, Mary looked at me with the saddest expression.

“What’s the matter?” I asked her.

“Tom,” she said in a voice filled with sadness, “Do you know something I don’t …”

“What do you mean? ”

“Well…that checkup I had several weeks ago…our doctor…did he tell you something about me? Tom, you’ve been so good to me…am I dying?”

It took a moment for it all to sink in. Then I couldn’t help laughing.

“No, honey,” I said, holding her in my arms. “You’re not dying; I’m just starting to live.”

【1】In the first paragraph, “No ifs, ands or buts” probably mean ____________.

A. probably   B. completely   C. impossibly   D. unimportantly

【2】From the story we may infer that Tom drove to the beach cottage ____________.

A. alone   B. with his family   C. with Mary   D. with his children

【3】During the two weeks on the beach, Tom showed more love to his wife because _____.

A. the doctor told him Mary was seriously ill

B. she looked beautiful in her new clothes

C. he made up his mind to be a good husband

D. he made a lot of money as a manager

【4】What made Tom change his mind to be with his family more?

A. His wife’s illness.   B. His vacation to the beach.

C. A talk on his car radio.   D. His achievement from his job.

【5】By saying “I am just starting to live,” Tom means that ____________.

A. he is beginning to feel sorry for what he did to his wife before

B. he lived an unhappy life before and is now starting to change

C. he is just beginning to understand the real meaning of life

D. he is just beginning to enjoy life as a loving husband
