One day as I was sitting in a coffee shop,I noticed a girl working on her laptop. Two people (A) passed by and accidentally knocked over her drink. To avoid the embarrassment (困窘) ，the girl pretended (假裝) that ( B) had hap pened and continued working on her computer.

This reminded me that both in China and Britain,when something strange happens around you or when you are in an embarrassing situation,(C) people tend (傾向于) to use this common way to not catch other people's attention.

A lot of the time,Britons use self-depreciating humor (自嘲式的幽默).This is a well-known British characteristic. For example,imagine walking (D) your friends and you fall over. Your friend may just say (E) “旅途愉快!” Or you may just laugh about how clumsy (笨拙的) you are. For many Britons,making fun of yourself is a way of showing your strength of character.

Also,British are considerate when it comes to embarrassing others. For example,students(F) usually have a birthday party every year. So during the school day,a student will give out invitations to the class. If one person doesrTt get an invitation,but the rest of the class does,he or she will feel embarrassed. To avoid it,ifs common for students to even invite people who aren't(G) their friends.

2. 在文中(B) 和(D) 的空白處填入適當(dāng)?shù)膯?詞:

3. 將文中畫(huà)線部分(C) 改寫(xiě)為：people tend to use this common way other people won’t notice it.

4. 將文中畫(huà)線部分(E) 譯成英語(yǔ):

5.文中畫(huà)線部分(G) 指代的是:

Welcome to Youth Radio,your radio. Here we’re proud to introduce three Amazing Kids.

Gina,who is thirteen years old,got first prize in the “Young Cook of the Year” competition and she wants to write a recipe book for kids. "I want it to be fun to read and easy enough for children to use,” she says. Gina learned by watching her father,who's also good at cooking,in the kitchen. She wants to encourage other children to cook,because "everyone needs to eat,so it's a skill that will always be useful!”

Seventeen-year-old Brian used to love running until he was hurt in a serious accident three years ago. He lost part of one leg and didn't even expect to walk again. Now he's an athlete who has recently taken part in a long race. “After my accident I wanted to give up ,” he says. “But now l,m happy to be alive and able to continue running."

Helen has always been good at science,but she thought it was too difficult to become an inventor. Then she heard about an accident that had happened when a car hit a train in her town. “That gave me an idea ,” says the clever sixteen-year-old. It took her over a year to invent a small special machine that tells car drivers when a train is coming. One company is already interested in selling it'so it may be in the shops soon!

Do you know a child like them? Please e-mail us at amaxingkids@ mail,com and tell us why he or she should be on our radio. Thank you.

I once knew a man who was rich in his love for birds,and in their love for him. He lived in a grove full of all kinds of trees. He had no wife or children in his home. He was an old man with blue and kind eyes,and a voice that the birds loved.

While he was at work in the grove,the birds came close to pick up the worms (螺蟲(chóng)) in the fresh earth he dug up. At first,they kept their distance from him,but they soon found he was a kind man,and would not hurt them,but liked to have them near him.

They knew this by his kind eyes and voice,which tell what is in the heart. So,day by day their faith in his love grew in them.

All the birds of the grove were soon his best friends. They were on the watch for him,and would fly down from the green tree tops to greet him with their chirp (機(jī)機(jī)喳喳叫) .

When he had no work to do,he took bread with him,and dropped the pieces on the ground. Down they would dart (俯沖) on his head and feet to catch them as they fell from his hand.

He showed me how they loved him. He put a piece of bread in his mouth,with one end of it out of his lips. Down they came like bees at a flower,and flew off with it piece by piece.

When they thought he slept too long in the morning,they would fly in and

They went with him to church,and while he sang his hymns in it,they sat in the trees,and sang their praises.
