A
Have you ever heard of a great Chilean（智利的） poet? He was once referred to as the Picasso of poetry. Beloved by Chileans of all classes, he is one of the most widely read and respected poets in history. And this year is the 110th birthday of Pablo Neruda (1904-1973).
Born with the name Neftali Ricardo Reyes Basolto, he was a tall, shy and lonely boy. He loved to read and started to write poetry when he was ten. The American poet Walt Whitman, whose framed picture Neruda later kept on his table, became a major influence（影响） on his work.
However, his father did not like the idea of having a poet for a son and tried to discourage him from writing. To cover up the publication of his first poem, he took the pen name Pablo Neruda.
In 1924 Neruda gained fame with his most widely read work “Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair’’. Yet his rich experience as a diplomat and exile made him go beyond the theme of love. His work also reflected the political struggle of the left and development of South America. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1971.
Neruda loved the sea which he saw as creative, destructive and forever moving. He found inspiration（灵感） in the power and freedom of the waves and the seabirds on the coast. “I need the sea because it teaches me,” he wrote. “I move in the university of the waves.” He loved how the sea forever renewed itself, a renewal echoed (共鸣) in his work.

48. Which of the following is not the theme of his works?
A. Social reform B. Love C. Political struggle D. Development of South America

A. Neruda loved to write his poems near the se
B. the sea gave Neruda vast writing inspiration
C. the beautiful scenery along the Chile coast
D. Neruda’s poems were widely read overseas

Passage 1 Mobile Phone Madness
How much do you love your mobile phone? A Chinese student had to call 110 for help this week after he got his arm stuck in a toilet trying to rescue（援救） his mobile phone. After dropping his phone in the toilet, he decided to wrap（包，裹） his arm in newspaper in the hopes of keeping clean. But the newspapers became larger in size in the water, and then even his roommates couldn't help him pull his arm out. So policemen were called and they spent an hour unsticking the stuck student.
Passage 2 Crazy Pet Lovers
How much do you love your pets? Many people in China are famous for how much they love their pets. They dress them up in fashionable clothing and buy them high quality food. But would they spend 7,000 English pounds （68,000 yuan） on a wedding（婚礼） for their pets? And that's what a couple in Brazil spent on a fancy wedding for their pet Yorkshire terriers（ a kind of dog）.
Passage 3 Oh, rats!

Passage 4 Liar（说谎者）, liar
Here's some news that most women already know. Men tell more lies than women.

Men are also less likely to feel guilty about lying, according to this week's survey of 3,000 people by a research organization called One Poll.

A reader wrote in to say that she was feeling lonely at break because her best friend wasn't around. Here's our advice to her-and to all kids who feel lonely sometimes.
It's hard when a best friend isn't around-maybe because she moved to a different school or a different class. You may feel lonely at break or lunchtime. You want to have new friends. But how do you make them? Maybe it seems like everybody else already has their friends. But remember, there's always room for more friends.
Start by looking around your classroom-think about which kids you'd like to play with at break. Look for chances to say hi to them, smile, and be friendly. Offer to share something or express your appreciation (欣赏) to them. Invite someone to play with you or say "Do you want to sit here?" in the lunchroom. When you're at break, walk over to kids you want to play with act friendly, and say "Hi, can l play, too?" or just join in.
If you have trouble doing this or if you're feeling shy, ask your teacher to help you make new friends. Teachers are usually pretty good at matching up friends. The best way to make friends is to be a friend. Be kind, be friendly, share, say nice things, offer to help-and pretty soon, you'll have one, or two, or even more new friends.
You might still miss that special best friend. But when you see each other, you can share something you didn't have before she left: You can introduce her to your new friends!
