When I arrived here yesterday, I felt really excited. I’ve always wanted to visit America. I come from Perth, a quiet town in Scotland, and I haven’t seen much of the world. Last year I wrote to Princeton, a very famous university here and asked if I could come and study American Literature. I never thought they would say yes----but they did, and now here I am!

I’m really tired because of the time difference. New York is five hours behind the UK and I’m not finding it easy to switch to local time. I woke up at 2 o’clock and went out to have some food and sat at a table on the pavement --- or side walk as they call it here. I was happy to sit and watch people. The streets are very noisy and everyone walks very fast. I ordered a hamburger with chips and I got one with crisps! Then I walked back to my hotel and went to my room, which I knew was on the first floor. But in America, they say first floor instead of ground floor so I went into the wrong room! I felt so embarrassed. That was the worst moment for me. I felt far away from home and even though Americans and British speak the same language. I was like a foreigner. But the American woman who was in the room laughed and said she had had the same problem in England.

I slept a bit better last night. In the morning I phoned the waitress to ask for some tea. She couldn’t understand my Scottish accent and I couldn’t understand her New York one ! When she brought the tea to my room, she told me it was a holiday in the USA---it’s Independence Day, when the Americans celebrate the beginning of their country’s independence form Britain in 1776. I told her I was British and she invited me to a big party at the International Student Center----that’s “centre” where I come from. I met lots of young people from all over the world. It was great ! At last I felt at home here and rea母爱lly happy.

Since about 400 AD, Christmas Day has been celebrated on 25th December. This date was the old mid-winter festival in pre-Christian times, around the time of the longest night and the shortest day. Christmas in the 21st century has many traditions: Christmas trees, cards and presents.

Shops can make about 60 per cent of their year’s income in the three months before Christmas. So most shops get ready for it in October. The shopping centres are beautifully decorated and stay open late at night. The first time this happened was in 1867 when Macy’s, a famous shop in New York, stayed open until midnight on Christmas Eve (24th December.)

By mid-December, almost every house, shop and street has a Christmas tree. This tradition was started by the Germans as early as 700 AD. In the northern countries of the world, winter is cold and dark and most trees lose their leaves. The beautiful green trees decorated with lights and coloured glass balls give people hope that spring will come again.

The tradition of sending cards to friends was started in 1840 in the UK and now millions of Christmas cards and emails are sent all round the world. Cards are a good way of keeping in touch with family and friends who live far away.

Father Christmas is known across the world with his white hair, red coat and big bag of toys. Young children are told that he lives in the north of Finland and makes toys for them. By tradition, he brings the toys to children at midnight, on the night before Christmas.

On Christmas day a traditional meal is eaten, usually turkey (like a big chicken) and a rich, spicy cake. Some people hate Christmas. Others feel it is a magical and exciting time. They love seeing family and friends; they also love the traditions. Love it or hate it, Christmas is a time to look back over the old year ---- and forward to the new one.

Patrick O’Brian wrote 20 novels about life at sea in the 19th century and 13 other books as well, Millions of his historical adventure novels have been sold around the world: many people think he was one of the greatest storytellers in the English language. Readers love the descriptions of fighting between ships at sea; they also love the jokes and the historical facts. There are hundreds of websites about his books. Some of these websites even give instructions on how to cook the food which the characters in the stories eat.

Patrick O’Brian not only wrote thrilling adventure stories, but he also changed the story of his own life to make it more romantic. O’Brian is an Irish name and he told people that he had been born in Ireland and had learnt to sail boats as a young boy. This was not true. His real name was Richard Patrick Russ. He was the eighth son of a doctor, and was born in England. He first published a book in 1930 at the age of 15, but it was not very successful. In 1936 he married and his wife had a daughter in 1939. Unfortunately, the child died aged three, and he and his wife separated.

O’Brian moved to a beautiful old town in the south of France with his second wife in 1949. She was from the family of Leo Tolstoy, the famous Russian writer. He continued to write, helped by his wife. She read everything he wrote and if it was not interesting, he wrote it again. After writing for over 40 years, he started to become famous. In the 1990s the American newspaper, The New York Times, called him “the best novelist you’ve never heard of”. He died at the age of 85 in the year 2000; by the time he died, he was famous and rich.

The strangest fact of all is that the man who wrote so well about life at sea could not even sail a boat. But to the many people who love his books, the stories he told about his life are part of the magic.

46. How many books did Patrick O’Brian write ? _______ . A. Over 30. B. 20 C. 13 D. 10 47. His stories are mostly about ______ .

A. Ireland B. cooking C. adventures at sea D. Russian 48. Patrick O’Brian was _______.

A. Irish B. English C. Russian D. German 49. His life was ______ .

A. as romantic as his adventure stories B. very different from his adventure stories

C. not very successful D. the same as his adventure stories 50. Although Patrick O’Brian wrote so well about life at sea he ______ a boat. A. did not have B. did not know how to sail C. had never been in D. know how to sail

第二篇:《大一背诵美文》

Passage1

In your new journey of life, I feel it necessary to remind you that entering university is the triumph of your past hard work. In the future four years, I expect you to make the most of comprehensive library, sports facilities, faculty members and other abundant resources that success needs. Although you may feel overwhelmed by wealth of courses and dorm life, I assume that the new unique experiences far outweigh uncomfortable ones and they will help you reap the valuable lessons that you need in the future life. I believe as long as you take pleasure in challenging yourself and pairing passion with responsibilities, you can build a strong foundation for your future.The,annual,marathon。

Passage2

Watching my daughter back her truck and drive away, I feel glad for being finally free of the responsibilities for her. She left a mess in her bedroom. There are clothes she tossed aside everywhere on the floor and various books on her desk. And the drawers of the desk are filled with pa春节趣事pers filed by year and subject. I spend quite a long time straightening up her room and think about turning it into a fancy guest room. Suddenly, a large envelope marked with “DO NOT THROW AWAY” captures my attention. As I open it, I find inside the envelope there are letters, greeting cards and comics clipped from magazines, which are all our gifts to her and tokens of her childhood. I reverse my mind. I try hard to keep back my tears and put the clothes where they were. Tokens of her childhood will await her. So will we, with open arms.

Passage3

The college campus is being transformed into a new age of electronics. With many schools offering wireless Internet access anywhere on campus, colleges have become the most Internet accessible spots in the world. Students can use the wonders of the Internet to do homework, review lecture outlines, take part in class discussions and network online with your friends. In the meantime, colleges around the world have been replacing their old computer systems with a free and the most advanced online system. The anywhere-anytime access has already yielded amazing benefits in education.

Passage4

In an era of heightened heroism, heroes can be average people who follow the call of instinct when caught up in extraordinary circumstances and rush courageously toward danger regardless of their own safety to shield others from harm. Heroes can also be first responders who, with the knowledge of existing danger, overcome their fear and rush toward danger to help those in need. In both of them, we find heroism. Hopefully, by honoring them, we would all be inspired by their heroic deeds and become heroes.

Passage5

The annual Australian marathon is one of the toughest races in the world, a harsh test of endurance for the world’s top athletes. Cliff Young, a toothless 61-year-old famer was to take part in the race. Cliff was left far behind at the beginning of marathon. But he still kept running and by the fifth night, he had overtaken all the other runners and smashed the record. To this day,

Cliff Young remains a magnificent reminder and brilliant example of how ordinary individuals can inherently achieve remarkable results. As the saying goes, “Where there’s a will, there’s a way!” With determination and preparation, we can overcome the difficulties and finally achieve success.
