had not gained much ground. Our troops
engaging the enemy at the front were faced
with strongfiercestiff resistance. The division
commander instructed our battalion to get
around to the rear of the enemy and launch a
surprise
attack. To do so, however, we had to
cross a marshland and many of us were afraid we
might get
bogged down in the mud. Our
battalion commander decided to take a gamble. We
started under
cover of darkness and pressed on
in spite of great difficulties. By a stroke of
luck, the temperature at
night suddenly
dropped to minus 20 degrees Celsius and the marsh
froze over. Thanks to the cold
weather, we
arrived at our destination before dawn and began
attacking the enemy from the rear.
This turned
the tide of the battle. The enemy, caught off
guard, soon surrendered.

Automobiles have, since
their invention, revolutionized transportation,
changing forever the way
people live, travel,
and do business. On the other hand, they have
brought hazards, especially
highway
fatalities. However, today the application of
computer technology and electronic sensors in
designing and manufacturing cars makes it
possible to eliminate most of traffic accidents.
For
example, electronic sensors mounted in
your car can detect alcohol vapor in the air and
refuse to start
up the engine. They can also
monitor road conditions by receiving radio signals
sent out from
orbiting satellites and greatly
reduce your chances of getting stuck in traffic
jams.

countries.
Globalization has great
implications for young Chinese. For example, young
farmers are moving
on a large scale to urban
areas to look for jobs. And for those young people
who aspire to study
abroad or work in foreign-
invested enterprises, English has become
increasingly important. At the
same time, a
considerable number of overseas Chinese students
have returned home in recent years,
for they
hold an optimistic outlook for the long-term
growth of the Chinese economy. The internet
has strengthened the links between Chinese
young people and those elsewhere. They follow the
latest trend and copy foreign fashions. Some
of them don’t seem to care for traditional Chinese
virtues, let alone carry them forward, which
has given rise to worries that the traditional
Chinese
culture might one day vanish.

For my own part, I find
that appearances are all too often deceptive. For

wrong if you judged by
appearances only people like Edward Hyde Burton.
In appearance, he
seemed a man all of a piece.
He was a tiny little fellow with white hair and
mild blue eyes, gentle
and candid.
Nevertheless, he turned out to be very cruel. He
insulted and fooled Lenny who was
down and out
and made him commit himself to an insane venture.
What was still more surprising
was that he was
completely indifferent to Lenny’s death. Without
doubt, Burton was a man with a
heart of stone.

5)In the modern world, there
are more ways than ever to waste away time, and
all kinds of
distractions are eating into our
precious time.
Today we are under
constant pressure to work longer hours, to produce
more, and to possess more.
Lots of people hold
the wrong perception that happiness lies in
working hard and earning well good
money.
Many women today feel the same stress to work and
get ahead and, at the same time, to nurture
their offspring and shoulder the burden of
domestic responsibilities.
Research shows that
workaholism tends to distance us from our
immediate families. It forces us to
toil
longer and longer hours, leaving a minute fraction
of our time to be physically and emotionally
available to our loved ones. Intimacy among
family members is doomed to die in the process.

Today, long after
the earthquake shook hit my tome-town, I can
still recall, in crystal detail,
what I saw as
I ran out of my home with my parents. The building
just across the street toppled right
before
our eyes, debris flew everywhere and a cloud of
choking dust blotted out the sun.
Horror-
stricken people ran in all directions, crying and
screaming.
Now, many years after that tragic
event, a new town has risen on the wreckage of the
old one. In
the town square, a memorial has
been build to remember those killed in the
disaster. It seems the
wounds in people’s
hearts have healed, but the memory will linger.
