passengers.
“Yes, but it will take six hours to go on foot to the next station,” said the train driver’s
assistant.

leaving!” he shouted.
The driver blew the whistle and the train went back along the rails about two kilometers.
Then he blew the whistle again. The train moved faster and faster as it came closer to the bridge.

A few years ago, a television series became very popular in the United States. It followed
the lives of two doctors who were brothers, their father and their housekeeper in a flat in Seattle.
第 1 页，共 3 页
The series was so popular that it was broadcast all over the world. The characters became
very well known. However, there was a fifth character. His name was Eddy, a dog raised by their
father. He was special because he seemed to be able to respond to situations clearly.
He did this by staring into space if he didn’t want to listen and by turning his body over on
his back with his legs in the air when he wanted to draw attention.
Later, Eddy died and the flat in Seattle felt a strange emptiness. The doctors and their father
found themselves looking for Eddy in his usual spots from time to time. One day, the younger
doctor couldn’t stand the silence any longer. “We should do something to keep his memory alive. ”
he said to his brother and father. The father nodded slowly, “You’re right. and he was part of
our family. Maybe we could create a little memorial in the garden. ”
One of the neighbors who had often watched Eddy play from her window said, “Eddy
brought a lot of joy to this neighborhood. He made us all feel like we were part of one big family. ”
The doctors and their father were touched. They realized that Eddy’s influence had extended (延
伸) far beyond their flat. He had created a sense of community, a bond (纽带) that held them all
together.
So they found a small, peaceful corner in the garden and dug a hole. They placed Eddy’s
favorite toy at the bottom, along with a photograph of him. Then, they carefully planted a
beautiful cherry blossom tree (樱花树) on top. On the anniversary (周年纪念日) of Eddy’s death,
the family and neighbors gather around the tree and tell stories about the amazing dog.

hole were achieved did the player win the point.Cuju

made of leather on the outside and filled with rice bran inside. As a fun and relaxing game, cuju

For Chinese people, one of the most memorable cultural events is the “24 Solar Terms” (
二十四节气). It is an ancient way of dividing the year by watching the sun’s movement. The
Chinese divided the year into 24 parts based on the sun’s 45 . Each part shows the
changes of the seasons, weather and nature.
What are the 24 Solar Terms
The 24 Solar Terms are part of the traditional Chinese calendar. 46 , it appeared
along the Yellow River even before the Qin Dynasty (221-207 BC．) , and was almost complete by
the Han Dynasty (202 BC-220). It is also called China’s “fifth great invention” after paper-making,
printing, gunpowder, and the compass.
In ancient times, the 24 Solar Terms were very important 47 . They helped
farmers know when to plant and harvest crops and told people how to prepare for different seasons.
The year starts with “Start of Spring” and ends with “Major Cold”. Each season has six solar
terms, and each term lasts for 15 days.
From generation to generation, the experience in growing food and daily life has been
passed. Many farmers 48 rely on the solar terms now to decide what they should do in
the fields.
New life for the ancient way of dividing time
Even though the 24 Solar Terms are part of our lives, we need to work hard all the way to
keep this cultural treasure alive. The most important part is to 49 more young people in
the job. The government wants to make this old culture more lively by supporting young people in
using their imagination and paying more attention to it. In fact, many young people have already
worked hard to do this.
With photos, paintings and essays, it is quite 50 to see that the ancient idea of
living in peace with nature will keep getting stronger.
