　　Passage1：My problem is with my mother. She is now over 70 and becoming very weak. My father died 5 years ago and I have no brothers or sisters. I‘m the only one who has to take care of her. But in the town where she lives is difficult for me to find a job. I am a lawyer and she can’t come to live with me， because she doesn‘t like the weather. She said it’s too bad to her health. It‘s true， because it’s very clod here， so I really don‘t know what to do.

　　Passage 2：Are you a morning person or an evening person？ When do you work best？ I work best in the morning. I always do my work before a lunch time. Usually I start at 9 o’clock and work to 12 o‘clock. After that， my brain stops working. On a good day， I write 1，500 words or more， sometimes 2，000 words in the morning. Then after lunch， I go out for a walk or read. In the evening， I go out and meet people. Meeting people usually brings me new ideas for my books.

　　Passage 3：A star fish looks like a star. Most of them have five arms. Some have even more. At the end of each arm is an eye. The star fish has as many eyes as it has arms. And if an arm as the star fish lost， it grows a new one. If you cut a star fish in two， each piece will grow into a new star fish. Star fish are not real fish， they are not good to eat. Dry ones are very pretty， people take dry star fish home and decorate their houses with them.
