Town and Country Life in England

There is a big difference between town life and country life in England.In the

country, everybody knows everybody else.They know what time you get up, what time you go to bed and what you have for dinner.If you want help, you will always get it and you will be glad to help others.In a large town like London, however, it can sometimes happen that you have never seen your next door neighbor and you do not know his name or anything about him.People in London are often very lonely.This is because people go to different places in the evenings and at weekends.If you walk through the streets in the centre of London on Sunday, it is like a town without people.One is sorry for old people living on their own.They could die in their homes and would not be

discovered for weeks or even months.(154 words.)

Passage 2

A Change in Women’s Life

The important change in women’s life-pattern has only recently begun to have its full effect on women’s economic position.Even a few years ago most girls left school at the first opportunity, and most of them took a full-time job.However, when they married, they usually left work at once and never returned to it.Today the

school-leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after that age, and though women tend to marry younger, more married women stay at work at least until shortly before their first child is born.Very many more afterwards return to full-time or part-time work.Such changes have led to a new relationship in marriage, with husband accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfactions of family life and with both husband and wife sharing more equally in providing the money, and

running the home, according to the abilities and interests on each of them.(154 wo Passage 3

A Popular Pastime of the English People

One of the best means of understanding the people of any nation is watching what they do with their non-working time.Most English men, women and children love growing things, especially flowers.Visitors to England in spring, summer, or autumn are likely to see gardens all the way along the railway lines.There are flowers at the airports and flowers in factory grounds, as well as in gardens along the roads.Each English town has at least one park with beautifully kept flower beds.Public buildings of every kind have brilliant window boxes and sometimes baskets of flowers are hanging on them.But what the English enjoy most is growing things themselves.If it is impossible to have a garden, then a widow box or something growing in a pot will do.Looking at each other’s gardens is a popular pastime with the English.(144words.)

Passage 5

Living Space

How much living space does a person need? What happens when his space needs

are not met? Scientists are doing experiments on rats to try to determine the effects of overcrowded conditions on man.Recent studies have shown that the behavior of rats is greatly affected by space.If rats have enough living space, they eat well, sleep well and produce their young well.But if their living conditions become too crowded, their behavior and even their health change obviously.They can not sleep and eat well, and signs of fear and worry become clear.The more crowded they are, the more they tend to bite each other and even kill each other.Thus, for rats,population and violence are directly related.Is this a natural law for human society as well? Is enough space not only satisfactory, but necessary for human survival? These are interesting questions.(147 words)

Passage 6

The United Nations

In 1945, representatives of 50 nations met to plan this organization.It was called the United Nations.After the war, many more nations joined.There are two major parts of the United Nations.One is called the General Assembly.In the General Assembly, every member nation is represented and has an equal vote.The second part is called the Security Council.It has representatives of just 15 nations.Five nations are permanent members: the United States, Russia, France, Britain and China.The 10 other members are elected every two years by the General Assembly.The major job of the Security Council is to keep peace in the world.If necessary, it can send troops from member nations to try to stop little wars before they turn into big ones.It is hard to get the nations of the Security Council to agree on when this is necessary.But they did vote to try to stop wars.(156 words)

Passage 7

Plastic

We use plastic wrap to protect our foods.We put our garbage in plastic bags or plastic cans.We sit on plastic chairs, play with plastic toys, drink from plastic cups, and wash our hair with shampoo from plastic bottles!

Plastic doesn’t grow in nature.It is made by mixing certain things together.We call it a produced or manufactured material.Plastic was first made in the 1860s from plants, such as wood and cotton.That plastic was soft and burned easily.The first modern plastics were made in 1930s.Most clear plastic starts out as thick, black oil.That plastic coating inside a pan begins as natural gas.Over the years, hundreds of different plastics have been developed.Some are hard and strong.Some are soft and bendable.Some are clear.Some are many-colored.There is a plastic for almost every need.Scientists continue to experiment with plastics.They hope to find even ways to use them!(160 words)

Passage 8

Display of Goods

Are supermarkets designed to persuade us to buy more?

Fresh fruit and vegetables are displayed near supermarket entrances.This gives the impression that only healthy food is sold in the shop.Basic foods that everyone buys, like sugar and tea, are not put near each other.They are kept in different aisles so customers are taken past other attractive foods before they find what they want.In this way, shoppers are encouraged to buy products that they do not really need.Sweets are often placed at children’s eye level at the checkout.While parents are waiting to pay, children reach for the sweets and put them in the trolley.More is bought from a fifteen-foot display of one type of product than from a

ten-foot one.Customers also buy more when shelves are full than when they are half empty.They do not like to buy from shelves with few products on them because they feel there is something wrong with those products that are there.(166 words)Passage 9

Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein was born in Germany in 1879.His father owned a factory that made electrical devices.His mother enjoyed music and books.His parents were Jewish but they did not observe many of the religion’s rules.Albert was a quiet child who spent much of his time alone.He was slow to talk and had difficulty learning to read.When Albert was five years old, his father gave him a compass.The child was filled with wonder when he discovered that the compass needle always pointed in the same direction—to the north.He asked his father and his uncle what caused the needle to move.Their answers about magnetism and gravity were difficult for the boy to understand.Yet he spent a lot of time thinking about them.He said later that he felt something hidden had to be behind things.(143 words.)

Passage 10

Private Cars

With the increase in the general standard of living, some ordinary Chinese families begin to afford a car.Yet opinions of the development of a private car vary from person to person.It gives a much greater degree of comfort and mobility.The owner of a car is no longer forced to rely on public transport, and hence no irritation caused by waiting for buses or taxis.However, others strongly object to developing private cars.They maintain that as more and more cars are produced and run in the street, a large volume of poisonous gas will be given off, polluting the atmosphere and causing actual harm to the health of people.Whether private cars should be developed in China is a difficult question to answer, yet the desire for the comfort and independence a private car can bring will not be eliminated.(143words)
