25、A Man of Vision(视觉)

In 1809, Louis Braille was born in a small town in France.When he was three years old, he accidentally hurt one of his eyes.The sickness spread to his other eye. Later, Louiswas unable to see.

Louis’s parents took him out of schooltwo years later. They thought that there was nothing more for him to learn there. He could not read or write.

When he was ten years old, Louis’s parents sent him to a special school inParis. It was one of the first schools for blind people in the world. Louis learned many skills at this school. Oneof them was reading.

Back then, blind people read by feeling raised letters on the paper. But it was difficult. Too many letters felt the same, for they had similar shapes.

Louis wantedto find a better way for blind people to read. He tried to create a touch system for reading and writing. He believed a system of raised dot（小点）could help. Night Writing-a writing system for soldiers was used. But he didn’t think it was good enough. This system did not allow the fingertip（指尖）to cover a whole letter. The readers had to move their fingers to feel theletter.

After years of hard work, he invented a shorter, easier form of this touch system. He used six dots to form each letter. It allowed a personto feel a whole letter without moving. Blind people could read much faster and easier.

Today, we call this form of written language Braillein honour of Louis Braille.

Louis died in 1852. However, his form of communication lives on. Though he became blind at a young age,he insisted a lot. Instead, he overcame the difficulty, and madea big difference.

26、

If you ever go to the US and eat at a restaurant, there’s a very important difference you should know about. US people have a custom to give money to waiters and waitresses as a tip for their work.

But why is this? Shouldn’t waiters get paid enough by their bosses? Well, many waiters and waitresses get paid below the US minimum wage (最低工资) and work for tips to make up for that. According to the American travel website TripAdvisor, some states pay their servers (服务员) only $2.13 (about 14 yuan) per hour.

While no one makes you tip, if you are at a sit-down restaurant, it is usually expected that you tip your waiter 15 to 20 percent of what your bill is.

It’s not just for waiters either. Hotel maids, hairdressers and taxi drivers also usually work for tips. But it is much more expected to tip waiters.

The US hasn’t always had this tipping culture. In fact, people were mostly against it until the Prohibition Era (禁酒令时代) in the 1920s. The government said no one could sell alcohol (酒). Then, restaurants had trouble making enough money. So they started to ask people to tip their waiters.

This tipping culture has lasted through the years, but most people don’t like it. Some think restaurant bosses use it as an excuse to not pay their workers well. There isn’t much action being taken to make a change yet. So for now, be sure to tip your waiter when in the US.

【1】If a server works eight hours a day, he can get   from his boss.

A. $2.13   B. $17.04   C. ￥14

【2】Besides waiters and waitresses,   also works for tips in the US.

A. customers B. taxi drivers C. restaurant bosses

【3】When the restaurants couldn’t sell alcohol,   .

A. they were bankrupt (破产的) and closed down

B. the bosses still made much money

C. they started to ask people to tip

【4】We can learn from the passage that   .

A. the waiters and waitresses aren’t well paid in the US

B. the custom of giving tips only appears in the US

C. all Americans are glad to tip their waiters

【5】About American’s tipping culture, foreign visitors think   .

A. they need to fight for their own rights

B. they should “do as the Romans do”

C. they can leave it alone

27、   There was once a little boy with a bad temper (脾气). He often had fights with his friends. One day, his father gave him a bag of nails (钉子) and told him to hammer (敲) a nail into the fence every time he lost his temper. The boy listened to his father and did what his father told him to do.

The first day, the boy drove 17 nails into the fence. Then the number of nails became less and less in the following days. The boy found that it was easier to keep his temper than to drive the nails into the fence. Finally, the day came when the boy didn’t lose his temper at all. He told his father about it and his father asked him to pull out one nail each time he was able to keep his temper.

The days passed and the young boy was finally able to tell his father that all the nails were gone.The father took his son by the hand and led him to the fence. He said, “You have done well, son, but look at the holes in the fence. The fence will never be the same as it was before. When you say some words in anger, your bad temper will leave a scar just like the hole. Even if you say you’re sorry, the wound is still there. If you hurt a person with words, the wound is as bad as a physical one. Friends are rare jewels (稀有珍宝). They make you smile and feel happy. So never hurt your friends.”

Since then the boy had never fought with his friends. He learned how to get on with others and he never lost his temper again.

28、More than 95% of the people in the world have phones today. They help us easily make contact (联系) with others. It means that we h【1】 write letters now. But a TV show, Letters Alive, is bringing b【2】 this old habit.

The show is loved by people around China. It invites famous actors and actresses. One person walks up to a microphone (麦克风) and reads a【3】. The letters were w【4】 by people from different times in history. We can experience the real lives and feelings of the writers.

Besides it, another TV show, Readers, is also p【5】. It invites different people to read aloud on the stage, and t【6】 the touching stories behind them. They can read anything, like poems and books.

Only one person can come into it each time. A microphone in it records people’s voices. Some of the readers will be picked and invited to r【10】 on TV.
