Dear all,

Please read Professor Hume's email about his next lecture on Rosa Parks.

Susan Miller 

Secretary

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊Dear Susan,

Please forward this message to students of my history class.

Besides the life story of Rosa Parks in the textbook, the students are also required to read the passage below and some related stories that can be borrowed from the school library.

Ted Humew*

The early experiences of Rosa Parks(1913-2005), long known as the “mother of the civil rights movement,” were not different from those of many African-Americans at that time. The black woman, however, turned the course of American history in December 1955 when she refused to give up her seat on a bus to a white man. “By sitting down,” remarked John Lewis, “she was standing up for all Americans.”

Among the numerous awards Parks received in her life were the Presidential Medal of Freedom(1996) and the Congressional Gold Medal(1999).

Parks died on Oct. 24, 2005. At St. Paul A. M. E. Church in Montgomery, a large crowd including Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice celebrated her life. Rice said she and others, who grew up when the political activities of Parks held public attention, might not have realized her impact(影響) on their lives, “but I can honestly say that without Mrs. Parks, I probably would not be standing here as Secretary of State.”

After her casket(靈柩) was placed at the Capitol, U. S. President Bush, members of Congress and ordinary Americans paid their respects. In American history Parks is the first woman to lie in state at the Capitol, a very high regard usually reserved for Presidents of the United States.

Poor weather. Technical difficulties. These are some of the typical causes of cancelled trains and planes. But sometimes, the excuse can be a lot more trivial.

Just recently, passengers waiting for a train to Peterborough heard the following announcement, “For reasons beyond our control, we regret to inform passengers that the 13:46 Train to Peterborough has been cancelled. The next train will be arriving on Platform in approximately 36 minutes.”

Oh, well, another delayed train, thought most passengers. But a couple of them decided to enquire further. Incredibly, they were informed that the real reason for the non-arrival of the train was that the driver refused to do his job because his seat was wet.

“A wet seat? That’s got to be a joke,” said one passenger angrily. “I wouldn’t normally complain if the train is just a bit delayed, but this was unbelievable, ” he added. “What really made me angry is that this driver refused to get in the train,” said another passenger. “He probably went off for a cup of tea after that!” she added.

A spokesperson for the rail company apologized for the incident, but said the driver couldn’t sit on the damp seat, and wouldn’t be able to drive the train standing up. The spokesperson went on to explain that the seat had become wet after water entered through an open window when the train was being cleaned in a “train wash”

In another transport-related incident, a flight from Chicago to Frankfurt made an emergency landing in Canada after the pilot spilled his coffee. Apparently, the spilt liquid caused the plane’s radio to send out “transponder code 7500”, which is used to inform ground control that there’s been a hi-jacking (劫機). After landing in Toronto, the 255 passengers crew members were put up in a hotel for the night, then flown on to Frankfurt the following afternoon. “What a disgusting trip!” said one tired passenger after the painful experience had ended.

So, does your job have the potential to cause such disorder?

3.The flight made an emergency landing in Canada because “_______”.

B. the plane engines went wrong

C. the pilot ran out of coffee

4.Which of the following is the best title of the passage?

C. Small Incident, Big Disruptions!

D. Innocent Driver, Angry Passengers!

I found out one time that day a favor(幫助) for someone could get you into a lot of trouble.

  I was in the eighth grade at the time, and we were having a final test. During the test, the girl sitting next to me  36  something, but I didn’t understand. So I leaned(斜靠) over her way and  37  that she was trying to ask me if I had an extra pen. She showed me that hers was out of  38  and would not write. I happened to have an extra one,   39  I took it out of my pocket and put it on the desk.

  Later, after the test papers had been  40  , the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other students were dismissed（離開）. As soon as we were  41  , she began to talk to me about what it meant to grow up; she mentioned how  42  it was to stand on your own two feet and be  43  for your own acts. For a long time, she talked about  44  and emphasized(強調) the fact that when people do something dishonest, they are really  45  themselves. She made me promise that I would think  46  about all the things she had said, and then she told me I could  47  . I walked out of the room  48  why she had chosen to talk to me about all those things.

  Later on, I found out that she thought I had cheated on the test. When she saw me lean over to  49  to the girl next to me, it looked as though I was  50  answers from the girl’s test paper. I tried to  51  about the pen, but all she could say was that it seemed  52  to her that I hadn’t mentioned anything about the pen the day she talked to me right after the test.  53  I tried to explain that was just doing the girl a  54  by letting her use my pen, I’m sure she continued to  55  that I had cheated on the test.
