A Korean wave is sweeping across China, with many Chinese women worshiping South Korean actors Kin Soo-hyun and Lee Min-ho as demigods(偶像). Chinese netizens（网民）always have different opinions. Over South Korean TV dramas, but there is no doubt that programs from the neighboring country are now enjoying a new round of popularity in China, And a big part of the credit for that goes to You Who Came From The Star, the South Korean TV series which is on the air now.

You Who Came From The Star and The Heirs (继承者们) have been subjects of hot online discussions throughout Asia. Besides, the book, The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane, read by the hero You Who Came From The Star was a hard-to-get item on Amazon for a while.

The two TV programs have several common elements：a tall, handsome, and rich hero who loves the heroine blindly and always protects her, and an equally handsome man madly in love with the same woman. Both programs describe the purity of love, which is expressed through a kiss or a warm hug. Perhaps that’s the secret of their success; perhaps people still like Cinderella-type stories.

The widening wealth gap is a matter of social concern both in South Korea and China, and the challenges that young people face in their hope for a better life might have caused many ordinary girls to dream of marrying rich, caring men. This is precisely what the popular South Korean TV drams describe. In fact, South Korean TV dramas are tailored to meet the market’s demands.

Many netizens even said at an earlier time that South Korean TV dramas had become popular because of their stereotyped (模式化的) themes: traffic accidents, cancer and other incurable diseases. But all that has changed with the success of You Who Came From The Star and The Heirs, which Chinese directors can use as examples, as well as inspiration, to improve their productions.

Maureen worked in an office with twenty other people, and she liked her job. Getting ahead in her career wasn’t   41   to her until the day that her friend and co-worker Betty was promoted to be the boss of the unit. Betty couldn’t have gotten the     42   if Maureen had tried to. In the eyes of the other co-workers Betty was always cheerful,   43   and ambitious, while Maureen was low-key (低调的) and easy-going.

Before Betty got the promotion, Maureen had been   44   at her work, even if she had not been specially happy. But once Betty was made   45  , Maureen began to fill up with resentment (怨恨) until she   46   her job and hated Betty.   47   she made a big mistake because she had a feeling of   48   all the time.

Now she just thought that it should be hers.   50   examining herself to see what her real goal was in life, she began to   51   on Betty and regarded Betty as her enemy. Maureen became completely   52   on her resentment, and she couldn’t get out of the   53   situation.

One of the major problems with resentment is that you believe that your   54   is entirely caused by some outside person. You stop   55   what you can do to improve your situation, because you decide that your injured feelings are the   56   of someone else’s fault. You just give up trying to find real   57  . Dealing with resentment needs awareness and   58  . First of all, you need to   59   you are feeling resentful and then try to stop yourself feeling upset. Only in this way can you solve the   60   in your life.

The story goes that some time ago, a man had very lovely little daughter. One day, the man

The man was   47  by his earlier   48  , but his anger flared again when he found out the box was   49  . He yelled at her, stating, “Don’t you know, when you give someone a present, there is   50  to be something inside?” The little girl looked   51  at him with tears in her eyes and cried, “Oh, Daddy, it’s not empty   52  . I blew kisses into the box. They are all for you, Daddy.” The father was crushed. He   53  his arms around his little girl, and he begged for her  54

Only a short time later, an   55  took the life of the child. It is also told that her father kept that gold box by his bed for many   56  and whenever he was discouraged, he would take out a(n)   57  kiss and remember the love of the child who had put it there. In a very real sense, each one of us, as human beings, has been given a gold container   58  unconditional love and kisses … from our children, family members, friends and God.

My love for dogs goes as far back as my first memory. As a little girl, I collected dog toys. At 5 years old, I was ready and willing to run away with the family dog after the threat of giving him away when he chewed up the sofa. Luckily he stayed and my affection for man's best friend continued. As an adult, my reasons for wanting to adopt a dog were purely selfish. I wanted a companion. I wanted a young, energetic dog that would need long walks or runs to help keep me active to stick to an exercise routine.

Little did I know that my four-legged friend and love for dogs would help me feel more at home in and fall in love with my Shanghai community. It seemed to me that being a tall blonde didn't already attract a lot of curious stares; add a 12-kilogram black dog that believes everyone is his best friend to the picture and locals seem even more intrigued. The decision to adopt Xiao Hei definitely fulfilled those early selfish desires, but the experience has also brought me closer to my neighbors and made me feel more at home,.

A few months after I first brought Xiao Hei home, I spotted the group of elderly Chinese people who gather at the park. After realizing they go there most weeknights, I decided it would be a good way to help Xiao Hei socialize with other dogs. After a few visits, it was not only an opportunity for him to play but also a chance for me to practice my Chinese. "Most Chinese give their dogs English names, but you've given him a Chinese name. Very interesting," they laughed. With that simple laugh, it seemed that barriers were broken and with each visit I felt more a part of the community.

I have a friend named Monty Roberts. He has let me use his horse ranch （养马场） to put on events to raise money for Youth-at-Risk Programs.

Last time I was there he introduced me by saying, "I want to tell you why I let you use my house.  It all goes back to a story about a young man who was the son of a horse trainer． When he was a senior, he was asked to write a paper about what he wanted to be when he grew up."

“That night he wrote a seven-page paper describing his goal of owning a horse ranch someday. He put all his heart into the project and wrote about his dream in great detail. He even drew a diagram of a 200-acre ranch, showing the location of the buildings, stables and the track, and even a detailed floor plan for a 4,000-square-foot house on it.”

“The next day, he handed it in to his teacher. Two days later, he received a large red ‘F' on his paper with a note, ‘See me after class.' The boy went to see the teacher and asked why. The teacher told him there was no way for a young boy like him to do that because owning a horse ranch required much money and resources, and then added ‘If you’ll rewrite his paper with another goal, I will reconsider your grade.’”

“The boy went home and thought about it long and hard. He asked his father what to do. His father said, ‘Look, son, you have to make up your own mind on this. However, I think it’s a very important decision for you.’”

“Finally, a week later, the boy turned in the same paper without any change and stated, ‘You can keep the F, and I will never.’”

“I tell you this story because you are sitting in my 4,000-square-foot house in the middle of my 200-acre horse ranch. I still have that school paper over the fireplace.”

"Don’t let anyone steal your dreams. Follow your heart, no matter what."

There are many kinds of sales. For example, a “back-to-school sale” is held near the beginning of the school year. Parents like the lower prices of the clothes and school supplies for their children.

A “midnight madness” event starts very late at night. An “early bird special” sale starts very early in the morning. This kind of sale is popular the day after Thanksgiving in November.

A favorite sale among many people is the “buy one, get one free” sale. You buy one thing and get a second one without cost. When people see the word “free” in an advertisement they know they are getting a good deal. As a matter of fact, it is not the case.

Another kind of sale is a “going out of business” sale. This is when a storeowner tries to sell all the goods in the store before closing the business permanently(永久地).

Let us say the store sells floor coverings. The owner lowers the prices and puts up a sign that says: “Going out of business sale. All items MUST be sold by tomorrow.”

People who buy the floor coverings think they are getting a special deal because everything must be sold in a short period of time. Then, days later they see the store did not close permanently. And they see the same sign that claims the store is going out of business. Some business owners really do not end the business. They just want to earn more money.

People also hold their own sales. They hold garage sales and yard sales outside their home. They sell things they no longer want. Groups such as religious centers or schools hold bake sales. They sell cakes, cookies and other baked goods to raise money.

In America, you can always find a good sale, no matter the day or time of year. There is the Independence Day sale, Veteran’s Day sale, clearance sale, sidewalk sale, red tag sale, white sale, blue light special, liquidation sale, half-off sale, warehouse sale, tent sale ...

32. What does the passage mainly deal with?

   A. How to save money in shopping.                               B. Different kinds of sales.

   C. Shoppers’ ways to earn money.                                D. Reasons for the popularity of sales.

33. What do we call the sale if it starts before the sun rises?

   A. A “back-to-school sale”.                                     B. A “midnight madness” event.

   C. An “early bird special” sale.                                      D. A “buy one, get one free” sale.

34. Why do parents like a “back-to-school sale”?

   A. Because it has a variety of school supplies.

   B. Because it is held at the beginning of the school year.

   C. Because it provides plenty school uniforms.

   D. Because they can save money.

35. What’s the purpose of some owners who do “going out of business” sale repeatedly?

   A. They want to close the business permanently.

   B. They want to give special offers to customers.

Boys need friends, suffer when they don't believe they have any, and worry over the ups and downs of relationships. Many adults believe that somehow boys need friends less than girls do, in truth, though, no boy is an island; boys value their friends throughout childhood and adolescence and are happier and healthier when they have solid relationships with peers.

Despite the common belief that girls are better at relationships, most boys consider their friends a very important part of their lives, and boys may actually be better at keeping friendships than girls are. A recent study of 10 to 15­year­old boys and girls found that girls' friendships are actually more fragile. Girls tend to say and do hurtful things to each other more frequently than boys, and girls are more hurt by the end of a friendship.

Boys are the living definition of the phrase “peer group”; they love games with rules, competition, and doing things together. Boys seem to enjoy, even need the opportunity to test themselves against others, and many lasting friendships begin in karate (空手道) class or on the basketball court. Competence and skill are widely respected; being picked last for a team or left out altogether is an experience that can haunt (萦绕心头) a boy for years.

As boys mature, the friendship becomes even more important, and it frequently widens to include girls. During the teen years, friends can become the most important part of a boy's life—and a part in which his parents are not included. The confusion of being a teenager leads boys to form close bonds with friends. There is the sense for many boys that a friend is someone who is “always there for me”， someone he can trust. They may be partners in crime or partners in study, but the friendship of adolescent boys can run surprisingly deep.

39. According to the text, boys' friendship________.

A. is usually built around active play                  B. tends to be in small groups

A. widen his circle of friends to include different kinds of people
