On
one
of
her
trips
to
New
York
several
years
ago,
Eudora
Welty
decided
to
take
a
couple
of
New
York
friends out to dinner. They settled in
at a comfortable East Side cafe and within
minutes, another customer was
approaching their table.
“Hey,
aren’t
you
from
Mississippi?”
the
elegant,
white
-haired
writer
remembered
being
asked
by
the
stranger. “I’m from
Mississippi too.”
Without a
second thought, the woman joined the Welty party.
When her dinner partner showed up, she
also pulled up a chair.
“They began telling me all the news of
Mississippi,” Welty said. “I didn’t know what my
New York friends
were
thinking.”
Taxis

a
rainy
New
York
night

By
the
time
the
group
got
up
to
leave,
it
was
pouring outside. Welty’s new friends
immediately sent a waiter to find a cab. Heading
back downtown toward
her hotel, her
big-city friends were amazed at the turn of events
that had changed their Big Apple dinner into a
Mississippi.
“My friends
said: ‘Now we believe your stories,’” Welty added.
“And I said: ‘Now you know. These are the
people that make me write
them
.’”
Sitting
on
a
sofa
in
her
room,
Welty,
a
slim
figure
in
a
simple
gray
dress,
looked
pleased
with
this
explanation.
“I don’t make
them up,” she said of the characters in her
fiction these last 50 or so years. “I don’t have
to.”
Beauticians,
bartenders, piano players and people with purple
hats, Welty’s people come from afternoons
spent visiting with old friends, from
walks through the streets of her native Jackson,
Miss., from conversations
overheard on
a bus. It annoys Welty that, at 78, her left ear
has now given out. Sometimes, sitting on a bus or
a
train, she hears only a
fragment(
片段
) of a
particularly interesting story.
happened when Welty was with her friends at the
cafe?
A. Two strangers joined her.
B. Her childhood friends came in.
C. A heavy rain
ruined the dinner.
D. Some
people held a party there.

A.
readers
B. parties
C.

D.

can we learn about the
characters in Welty’s fiction?
A. They live in
big cities.

They are mostly women.
C. They come from real life.
D. They are
pleasure seekers.

If you are a fruit
grower
—
or would like to
become one
—take advantage of Apple Day
to see what’s around.
It’s
called Apple Day but in practice it’s more like
Apple Month. The day itself is on October 21, but
sinceit
has
caught on, events now spread out over
most of October around Britain.
Visiting an apple event is a good
chance to see, and often taste, a wide variety of
apples. To people who are
used to the
limited choice of apples such as Golden Delicious
and Royal Gala in supermarkets, it can be quite an
eye opener to see the range of
classical apples still in existence, such as Decio
which was grown by the Romans.
Although it doesn’t taste of anything
special, it’s still worth a try, as is the
knobbly(
多疙瘩的
)
Ca
t’s Head which is
more of
a curiosity than anything else.
There
are also varieties developed to suit specific
local conditions. One of the very best varieties
for eating
quality is Orleans Reinette,
but you’ll need a warm, sheltered place with
perfect soil
to grow it, so
it’s
a pipe
dream for most
apple lovers who fall for it.
At the
events, you can meet expert growers and discuss
which ones will best suit your conditions, and
because these are family affairs,
children are well catered for with apple-themed
fun and games.
Apple Days are being
held at all sorts of places with an interest in
fruit, including stately gardens and
commercial
orchards(
果园
).If you want to
have a real orchard experience, try visiting the
National Fruit
Collection at Brogdale,
near Faversham in Kent.
can people do
at the apple events?
A.
Attend experts’ lectures.
B. Visit fruit
-loving
families.
C. Plant fruit
trees in an orchard.
D. Taste many kinds of apples.
can we learn about Decio?
A. It is a new variety.
B.
It has a strange look.
C.
It is rarely seen now.
D. It has a special taste.
does the underlined phrase “a pipe dream” in
Paragraph 3mean?
A. A practical idea.
B. A vain hope.
C.A
brilliant plan.
D. A selfish desire.
is the
autho
r’s purpose in writing the
text?
A. To show how to grow
apples.
B .To introduce an apple
festival.
C. To help people select
apples.
D. To promote apple research.

Bad news sells. If it
bleeds, it leads. No news is good news, and good
news is no news. Those are the classic
rules
for
the
evening
broadcasts
and
the
morning
now
that
information
is
being
spread
and
monitored(
监控
) in
different ways, researchers are discovering new
rules. By tracking people’s e
-mails and
online
posts, scientists have found
that good news can spread faster and farther than
disasters and sob stories.
“The ‘if it bleeds’ rule
works for mass media,” says Jonah Berger, a
scholar at the University of Pennsylvania.
“They want your eyeballs and don’t care
how you’re feeling. But when you share a story
with your friends, you
care a lot more
how they react. You don’t want them to think of
you as a Debbie Downer.”

found
that it tended to be more positive than
negative(
消极的
), but that
didn’t necessarily mean
people
preferred positive news. Was positive news shared
more often simply because people experienced more
good things than bad things? To test
for that possibility, Dr. Berger looked at how
people spread a particular set
of news
stories: thousands of articles on The New York
Times’ website. He and a Penn colleague analyzed
the
“most
e
-
mailed” list for six
months. One of his first f
indings was
that articles in the science section were much
more likely to make the list than
non-
science articles. He found that
science amazed Times’ readers and made
them want to share this positive
feeling with others.
Readers also
tended to share articles that were exciting or
funny, or that inspired negative feelings like
anger
or anxiety, but not articles that
left them merely sad. They needed to be
aroused(
激发
) one way or the
other, and
they preferred good news to
bad. The more positive an article, the more likely
it was to be shared, as Dr. Berger
explains in his new book, “Contagious:
Why Things Catch On.”

Everyone knows that fish
is good for health.
16
But it seems that many
people don’t cook fish a
t home.
Americans eat only about fifteen pounds
of fish per person per year, but we eat twice as
much fish in restaurants
as at home.
Buying, storing, and cooking fish isn’t difficult.
17
This text is about how to buy and cook
fish in
an easy way.
18
Fresh fish should smell
sweet: you should feel that you’re standing at the
ocean’s edge. Any fishy
or strong smell
means the fish isn’t fresh.
19
When you have bought a fish and arrive
home, you’d better
store the fish in
the refrigerator if you don’t
cook it
immediately, but fresh fish should be stored in
your fridge for
only a day or two.
Frozen fish isn’t as tasty as the fresh
one.
There are many common
methods used to cook fish.
20
First,lean it and season it with your
choice of
spi
ces(
调料
).
Put the whole fish on a plate and steam
it in a steam pot for 8 to 10 minutes if it weighs
about one pound.
(A larger one will
take more
time.) Then, it’s
ready to serve.
A. Do not buy it.
B. The easiest is to steam it.
C. This is how you can do it.
D. It just requires a little knowledge.
E. The fish will go bad within hours.
F. When buying fish, you should first
smell it.
G. The fats in fish are
thought to help prevent heart disease.
