Benjamin Franklin only studied in school for two years. But he liked to read and write very much. Once he discussed a question with his friend in letters. His father found the letters and read them. He felt Ben did not express himself well. Nor did Ben make his meaning clear. He agreed that his father was right, From then on, he paid more attention to the style of his writing so that he could write better.
About that time he bought a copy of the British periodical(周刊) called The Spectator (《观察家》). He read it over and over. He thought the writing excellent, and wished, if possible, to write in the same style.
With this in mind, he studied some of the stories and made a note of the thought in each sentence. Then, a few days later, without looking at the magazine, he tried to write the stories. He tried to express each thought as fully as it had been expressed before. Then he compared his writing with the magazine. He found some of his faults in the compositions.
In this way he discovered he needed to know many more words. He felt that writing poetry would help him since that needed to use many different words which had the same meaning. So he turned some of the stories into poems; and after a time, he wrote them as stories again. He insisted on doing this for a long time.
He learned much from his efforts and went on to practise his writing. Then he became the first famous writer in American history.

高一英语单项填空简单题查看答案及解析
After years of study, I have known there are only two types of people in this world: those who get to the airport early and those who arrive when the plane is about to take off.
If there were any justice(公正)in this world, early-airport people would be rewarded for doing the right thing. And late-airport people would be punished. But early-airport people get ulcers(溃疡), heart attacks and bite their fingernails to the bone. Late-airport people almost don’t realize they are flying.
A guy of that kind once said, “Don’t hurry. If you miss your flight, it’s because God doesn’t want you to go.” This is clearly a guy who is never going to get an ulcer.
Early-airport people suffer another “name”. They are called exactly what they are -wimps(窝囊废). I know. I was an early-airport person for years. “My baggage will get on the plane first,” I told myself. Indeed it would, which made it the last baggage they took off the plane after landing.
Another strange thing: No matter how early I showed up, I was always told that someone had called two or three years ahead of me and asked for the best seat. I thought it was a trick. I thought there was someone in America who called every airline every day and said: “Is that wimp Simon flying somewhere today? If he is , give me his seat.”
After a lifetime arguing with my wife over whether I really have to pack 24 hours in advance and set the alarm clock four hours ahead, I have learned another fact about early-airport people and late –airport people:
They always marry each other.
1.We can learn from the passage that ________.
A.late-airport persons are often nervous |
B.early-airport persons are always at ease during the flight |
C.early-airport persons get their baggage first after the landing |
D.late-airport persons always take things easy |
2. Paragraph 5 mainly wants to tell us that ________.
A.someone always plays tricks on the writer |
B.the airlines usually fool passengers |
C.early-airport persons always can’t get good seats |
D.the service of airlines is very bad |
3.This passage is written in order to .
A.give readers tips about taking a plane |
B.offer suggestions about having a good plane trip |
C.express the writer’s anxiety about taking a plane |
D.show people’s different attitudes toward catching planes |
4. It could be inferred that the writer’s wife is ________.
A.an early-airport woman | B.a late-airport woman |
C.a hot-tempered woman | D.a sensitive woman |

Dear Editor,
I have just returned home after studying for a year in Germany. But it seems that my parents don’t understand me now. They expect me to be the same person I was before I went abroad, but I’m not! Why can’t they let me be myself?
Jimmy
Hi, Jimmy,
As far as I know, people who have lived abroad often find that the adjustment (调整) to returning home is more difficult than their adjustment to living in a foreign culture. Why? We expect to have some problems when we go to a new place, speak a different language and learn the rules of a different culture ... But home? ... we know that place!
Your parents expect that the same person who boarded the airplane one year ago will be returning. Especially if they have never been abroad themselves, your parents probably won’t understand the changes that living abroad can cause in a person. On the other hand, you may have maintained (保持) an ideal mental image of your loved ones while abroad, an image that is broken into pieces when you return.
Remember you have been living a different lifestyle in your host country, and you have probably become very independent while staying there alone. Now that you’re home, you will be expected to conform (顺应) again to the lifestyle of your family. As a result, you may be upset about your parents’ involvement in your life.
Communication is the key to overcoming this problem. Tell your parents how you are feeling. Share with them information about cultural re-entry(重归), and ask them to be patient. This does not mean that you have to forget your experience and give up everything you’ve learned! Learn to find a balance between the old and new, just as you did when first adjusting to your host country’s culture.
1.What is Jimmy’s main purpose in writing the letter?
A.To criticize his parents.
B.To ask for advice about his studies.
C.To complain about his parents.
D.To ask for help.
2.What does the editor think of Jimmy’s problem?
A.It’s unusual. B.It’s normal. C.It’s serious. D.It’s interesting.
3.The editor thinks that both Jimmy and his parents ______.
A.have changed in the past year
B.have unrealistic expectations of each other
C.need to behave like they did before
D.need to find a balance between the good and bad
4.The author suggests that ______ would help solve Jimmy’s problem.
A.patience and trust
B.patience and politeness
C.better communication between family members
D.a deeper understanding of the host country’s culture
