Just then a little boy asked， “Whats his number？”

The English language has a lot of words which can be used in many different ways and in many different expressions.

One such example is the word matter. In fact， matter can mean just about anything. It could be one of the most useful words in the English language.

Lets get to the heart of the matter—a matter of principle.

If someone says that you owe him $50， but you dont， a friend might say， “Well， you could pay him the $50. Its not that much money.” Then you wont have to hear him say it anymore. But if you do not owe him the money， do not pay him the money. Its a matter of principle.

There is another way to use the word matter. But be careful with your choice of words.

If you ask someone， “Whats the matter？” it shows you are worried about the other person. But saying， “Whats the matter with you？” has a completely different meaning. And it usually sounds rude. In fact， when you say， “Whats the matter with you？” you are suggesting that the person did something wrong or stupid.

Another expression that could sound rude is to say， “It doesnt matter to me.” Here， it depends on the context， and how you say it.

Lets say you tell someone that a friend just got a big raise at work. That person answers with， “It doesnt matter to me.” Here， it means he or she does not care. And it sounds rude.

But saying， “Oh， you pick where we eat dinner. It doesnt matter to me.” does not sound rude. In this situation， “it doesnt matter” shows you are easy-going.

No matter how you look at it and what you say， matter is a very useful word. And its only a matter of time before you will become an expert on the use of matter.

1. We can infer from the text that the word “matter” .

A. has a wide use B. is a kind of principle

C. is the most used English word D. has the most expressions

2. What is the authors suggestion in Paragraph 4？

A. Every penny counts.

B. Stick to what is right.

A. Choice. B. Person.

C. Situation. D. Answer.

4. The author develops the text by .

A year ago， I paid no attention to English idioms， though my teacher stressed the importance again and again. But soon， the importance of English idioms was shown in a funny experience.

One day， I met an Englishman on the road， and soon we began to talk. As I was talking about how I was studying English， the foreigner seemed to be astonished， gently shaking his head， shrugging his shoulders， and saying， “You dont say！” “You dont say！” I was puzzled. I thought， perhaps this is not an appropriate topic. “Well， Id better change the topic.” So I said to him， “Well， shall we talk about the Great Wall？ By the way， have you ever been there？” “Certainly， everyone back home will laugh at me if I leave China without seeing it. It is magnificent.” He was deep in thought when I began to talk like a tourist guide， “The Great Wall is one of the wonders in the world. We are very proud of it.” Soon I was interrupted again by his order， “You dont say！” I couldnt help asking. I said， “Didnt you say you dont say.” Hearing this， the Englishman laughed to tears. He began to explain， “You dont say actually means really it is an expression of surprise. Perhaps you dont pay attention to English idioms.” Only then did I realize I had made a fool of myself. Since then， I have been more careful with idiomatic expressions.

5. Why did the author pay no attention to English idioms a year ago？

A. He did not realize their importance.

B. He had no interest in English learning.

C. His teacher didnt stress the importance.

D. They were too difficult for him to master.

6. What did the author think when he first heard “You dont say”？

A. He had talked too much.

B. He had to stop talking at once.

C. The Englishman was not interested in the topic.

D. The Englishman did not understand what he said.

7. What can we learn from Paragraph 2 about the Englishman？

A. He wanted the author to act as his guide.

B. He was leaving China without seeing the Great Wall.

C. He visited the Great Wall and thought it worth visiting.

D. He wanted to see the Great Wall after the author talked about it.

Its early morning， and Katie Smith hears a rooster crowing （報曉）. Its time to get up and start working. She and her husband， Chris Cashen， start the day early. They own and run the Farm at Millers Crossing， in Hudson， New York.

With the help of 10 workers and， sometimes， the Cashen kids—Lael， 12， Connelly， 10， Anne Mae， 8， and Christopher John， 6—Smith and Cashen harvest crops during much of the year. They grow vegetables and other plants. They also raise and care for some animals.

Because the Farm at Millers Crossing grows different kinds of crops， Cashen says the biggest challenge is timing. Several times a year， workers prepare the soil and plant crops. At other times， they transfer （轉移） plants from the greenhouse into the fields. The farmers store the fall vegetables in coolers and sell them throughout the winter.

Cashen and Smith grow their crops without the use of chemicals. When crops are ready to be harvested， workers pick them daily， wash them， and put them in boxes. In June， they work up to 70 hours a week. As fall nears， workers try to finish the daily harvesting while there is still daylight. The crops are sold through programs that provide buyers with fresh produce weekly.

Living on a farm has its perks. The Cashen kids swim in a river from which the crops get their water. They ride their bikes in wide-open spaces. When harvesting tomatoes， they sometimes have exciting tomato fights. They have a big family with which to share their adventures.

Everyone takes part in the business. The kids feed the horses. The boys care for the pigs. Lael says she likes transferring plants and selling produce. “Its fun and really busy，” says Lael， “but its just a part of life.”

4. What can we learn about the Cashen family？

A. They lead a busy life.

B. They love country life.

C. They live on selling vegetables.

D. They do all the work on their own.

5. What is the most difficult thing on the Farm？

The principles about applying for jobs have varied greatly lately. In the past， people preferred a hand-written application letter. However， nowadays it is becoming more and more common to apply for a job through the Internet. You can find information on the Internet about how to apply for jobs. Information can be found about how to fulfill your application letter， the clothes that you should wear and how to carry out the interview itself.

The importance of body language is often mentioned， but doesnt always get the attention it deserves. After all， before a word has even been spoken， your body language will have already given people their first impression of you. Additionally， your body language will also give out a lot more information. Based on your body language it can be seen if you are self-confident. It can also show if you are a busy or a quiet type and it helps give an impression of whether you are speaking truthfully or not. Body language can show how enthusiastic you are and if you are a nice person， someone who will take his work seriously， but also someone who has a sense of humor and can enjoy a joke from time to time. The members of the application committee will ask you questions， but your answers wont only be oral. The committee will not only pay attention to what you say， but also to how you say it！ Body language will determine first if it “clicks”， and sometimes all it takes is just a few seconds. Everybody uses body language， but it takes place mostly at a subconscious （潛意識的） level. Using body language appropriately， you can definitely increase your chances of getting a job.

1. What kind of people is the text mainly meant for？

A. Interviewers. B. Job-hunting people.

As you get together with friends and family for birthdays， holidays， or other celebrations， why not celebrate the environment too？ Here are some simple ideas for greening up your festivities （慶?；顒樱?

Choose eco-friendly gifts. Look for gifts made with the environment in mind. Or give gifts that get used up， like soap， food， or candles. 1 Or give the gift of your time， such as babysitting or computer help.

Green up your gift wrap （包裝）. Instead of spending money on store-bought wrapping paper that ends up in a dustbin， make your own wrapping from newspaper or magazines. Reusable gift bags are another good way to present gifts. 2

Decorate with the planet in mind. Holiday lighting can be a big energy user， so try to find efficient （高效的） lighting， such as LED lights. 3 If you light candles， choose natural ones.

Send greetings that really care. 4 Some people keep old cards， cut the pictures out， and use these to make new cards. Better still， go paperless with e-cards.

5 As you plan your event or celebration， keep in mind ways to reduce waste， such as using rechargeable batteries. If you receive gifts you cant return or use， pass them on to someone who can. Or you can donate them to someone who needs.

A. Reuse and recycle.

B. Green up your celebration.

C. Its our duty to protect the environment.

D. Theyre also easier to use than wrapping paper.

E. Turn off the outdoor lights before you go to bed.

F. Create your own cards using your computer and recycled

paper.

waste.
