Monsieur watched his owner, wondering, “What’s he up to now? ”
The old man cleared his throat, “Soon, I’ll move to an old age home, and I’m sorry to say, you can’t come along. They don’t allow dogs there. But don’t worry, my friend. We’ll find a nice new home for you. Anyone would be proud to own such a fine dog.”

After a very long time, they came upon an old house surrounded by tall trees. “This will be a nice home for you,” the old man said. “Go on now. Go up the steps and scratch (抓) on the door.”
Monsieur was hurt. He thought his owner didn’t love him anymore. He slowly walked toward the house and up the steps. Looking back, he saw his owner step behind a tree. He scratched with one paw at the front door. “Woof woof! Woof woof!”
Someone from inside opened the door and then a little boy appeared. When he saw Monsieur, he threw both arms into the air and shouted with joy, “Oh boy! Oh boy! Mom and Dad, come and see what Santa’s brought!”

Have you ever wondered what the perfect place to visit would be if you had the chance? Well, let me tell you: a paradise of wonder on the small island of Jamaica. When I went there, I had the greatest time of my life.
Everything about Jamaica is just perfect. There are so many places to go and things to do. There are white sandy beaches and the ocean is so clear that you can see everything from coral to colorful fish. Another great thing is all the fresh fruit, and how much better it tastes. Some people there carry things around on their heads in a very unique way: they wrap cloth around their heads and then place the object on top and position it so it stays balanced. It’s amazing!
One of the most interesting things I have ever seen was the Glistening Waters. The name describes exactly what it is: one of a few lakes in the world that allows a rare living thing to live in it. Have you ever wondered about fireflies (荧火虫) and why they have a green glow (光)? Well, when you touch this water, it glows bright green exactly like a firefly. We got to swim there in the dark, which was really amazing.
There are just so many great and interesting places to explore in Jamaica. Other things include swinging (荡秋千) on vines into lakes, sensitive grass that closes when it feels your touch, and even exploring bat caves that have warm water you can swim in.
As you might guess, Jamaica is one of the most wonderful places, and I think you should make plans to go there soon.
34. Some people in Jamaica wrap cloth around their heads to .
A. keep them warm
B. keep a special custom
C. welcome guests and visitors
D. carry things
35. Why does the writer mention fireflies in the third paragraph?
A. To describe the beauty of a lake.
B. To tell us fireflies fly over the lake.
C. To give us an idea of a rare thing.
D. To tell us some facts about fireflies.
36. What is special about the bat caves mentioned in the fourth paragraph?
A. There is sensitive grass in them.
B. You can swim in the warm water in them.
C. Vines grow on the walls of them.
D. They are full of dangerous bats.

An article (冠词) is one of the most difficult for the students of English as a second language (ESL) to learn. Misunderstanding these articles is the cause of a number of mistakes made by speakers of languages that do not have such constructions. My An English Grammar Study Guide is written to make you easily understand them. The following come from those who have made great progress.
By Asuka Fujii
I bought this book just a day after it was published because I know the author very well and I learn a lot from him. In this guidebook, the author explains the meaning of articles in his special way.

I’ve just read the book and it is great. I like such informative books. The only thing is the video at the end of the book has been removed. It will be great if you can get the correct video if it is possible.

Country singer Gary Allan has been making records since the mid 1990’s. But his latest album, Set You Free, is his first to hit number one on Billboard’s top two hundred albums chart (排行榜).
The song Every Storm (Runs Out of Rain) is the lead single (单曲) from Gary Allan’s new album Set You Free. The song has sold one million copies and is number one on Billboard’s country music chart. It has risen faster than any other single in the California native’s career.
Gary Allan says Every Storm is about hope, the common idea throughout the new album.
“You can expect a lot of honesty and a lot of songs about life. It’s going to roll you through a breakup and it’s going to roll you through the anger and the pain and make you as good as new. So what I think you can expect is something a little bit different musically out of this.”
Gary Allan says his favorite song on Set You Free is One More Time. He says he wrote it after his father died.
The country singer is supporting the album with concerts around the United States for most of the rest of the year. He says the shows are full of energy.

A travel journal is one of the best ways to keep a long journey in memory. Many details that don’t seem important while you are writing your travel journal often turn out to be what make the trip so memorable(难忘的).
Get into the habit of writing in your travel journal every day. When you are on a busy journey, it is easy to forget to write. You may promise yourself that you will go back later, but that almost never happens. Take a few minutes every day and put down your memories. It doesn’t have to be long, just on a regular basis.
Use your “down time” for your travel journal. There is a surprising amount of sitting around while traveling. You can always put down a few lines in your travel journal when you are on trains, waiting for planes, drying your laundry, or waiting in line.
In your heading, write down the day, where you are, who you are with, maybe even the weather and what you eat. These are the first details people tend to forget. Years later when you read your journal, you will know exactly what you were doing on that day.
Focus on writing about how you feel. Listing facts and figures is fine but that isn’t why you traveled. A long journey is a time for self reflection. Memories of these feelings fade(消失) quickly with time. Writing about those experiences while the memories are fresh is important.
Keep ticket stubs(票根). Whenever you use a ticket for a train or a museum or a ride, tape the stub to your journal. They are pieces of history from your journey. Years later you can look at the ticket stub and see exactly what you were doing on a specific day and how much it cost.
