And I ve discovered where a very generous spirit lives: Defiance, Ohio. After suffering through many months of unemployment, my wife and I moved this week from Colorado to Ohio, where she s starting a new job. Not knowing a person there, we were pretty concerned about all the work involved, includin g how we d get all the things unloaded (卸下 ) without killing ourselves. We made a connection to hire a couple of college students to help with all the heavy lifting once we got there. But one neighbor after another stopped by to help. What? Have we moved to some other country? Maybe we ve died and gone to heaven!Unloading actually became fun and pure joy as we connected with so many wonderful new friends as we worked. The more people that helped, the easier the work became. A job we were afraid might take days for the two of us alone was done in just a few hours. Many total strangers would either walk by the sidewalk or drive by to ask us if we were moving in. Many were delighted that this fine old house that had sat empty for so long was coming to life again. We were invited to an outdoor meal yesterday by neighbors on the same street. All the while, I was thinking that people could be outgoing and kind to strangers. Among all the conversation were lots of offers to be of help to one another in a variety of ways. It s wonderful to live in such a kind little town. I feel so grateful to be here, and wish the rest of the world could see how an entire community can model what it s like to look out for (关照 ) one another.

C Carnival is an annual (年度的 ) celebration of life found in many countries of the world. Hundreds of years ago, the followers of the Catholic (天主教的 ) religion in Italy started the tradition of holding a wild costume festival right before the first day of Lent (大斋节 ). Because Catholics are not supposed to eat meat during Lent, they called their festival, carnevale which means “ to put away the meat” . As time went by, carnivals in Italy spread to all the Catholic countries in Europe. Then as the French and Spanish began to take control of the Americas and other parts of the world, they brought with them their tradition of celebrating carnival. Important to Caribbean festival arts are the ancient African traditions of parading and moving in circles through villages in costumes and masks. Circling villages was believed to bring good fortune and to solve problems. Carnival traditions also borrow from the African tradition of putting 精选学习资料 - - - - - - - - - 名师归纳总结 - - - - - - -第 5 页，共 10 页- 6 - / 10 together natural objects (bones, grasses, shells) to create a mask, or costume with each object representing a certain spiritual force. Feathers were frequently used by Africans in their motherland on masks and headdresses (头饰 )as a symbol of ability as humans to rise above problems, pains, heartbreaks and illnesses. Today, we see feathers used in many, many forms in creating carnival costumes. African dance and music traditions also influenced the early carnival celebrations in the Americas and stilt (高跷 ) dancers began to make their appearances in the carnival festivities. In order to put a carnival band together, it takes many weeks of preparation and lots of creativity, energy, and patience. Carnival offers all of us an active tool for self-expression and exploration, a tool to explore our roots, to develop new forms of looking at the world and its cultures, and finally, a tool to discover what we all have in common, and to celebrate what makes us different. 46.

The Expo is typically characterized by the National Pavilions (场馆 ), where partic ipating countries would display thei r own architecture and exhibit their nations technologies and cultures. With such an exhibition, the World Expo generates global interests, attracting people all over the world. The origin of the Expo comes from the French tradition of national exhibitions which started from 1844 inParis. Soon other parts of Europe followed and held national exhibitions. It was in London on May 1st, 1851 that the first real international exhibition was held. For a long time, the Expo was especially focused on trade and famous for the display of technological inventions and advancements. The art in science and technology from all over the world was brought together. The theme for New York World s Fair (1939) was “ Building the World of Tomorrow ” . After the Expo, the World s Fairs became more based on specific themes with cultural significance. Since Expo 88 in Brisbane, the Expos have become more focused by each country on improving their national images (形象 )through their own pavilions. National branding increases in significance as national image becomes a key asset（资产） for each country in this world. Today s Expos present new inventions, improve cultural exchange and are also used by each country to promote themselves. The main attractions at a World Expo are the National pavilions. Each participating country will build their pavilion structures. These pavilions will often showcase each country s architectural creativity and skills. Exploring these beautiful and fascinating buildings is a wonderful experience. Entering each p avilion, visitors can view the country s exhibits, communicate with the people as well as enjoy the shows and performances specially prepared for the event. The Expo started a tradition, in 1967 at the Montreal Expo, of the “ Expo Passport” , where visitors are given a passport booklet. Visitors can get different commemorative （纪念性的） seals at each pavilion to be stamped on the expo passport. 51. The National Pavilions at an Expo _.

If you have children, it is of great importance to be a positive leader of your family. Children grow up and are gone before you realize it. Don t waste the time you have now. It is high time you should spend more quality time with your family. 2 Some people can t seem to find time to spend with their family. They don t think it is _. Others have other things that they think are higher on their list of priorities (优先 ,重点). Here are just a few reasons why family time is important. 3 Family ties are important. I ve often heard that the reason why so many kids decide to join gangs is that they welcome them in and then they become part of a family. They need to feel like they have someone they can turn to for anything. Spending time together as a family ensures the deep and strong family bond. 4 With the startling numbers of marriages and divorces today, your children need to learn the importance of family values. Chances are your children will copy the exact behaviors you show towards them. If you are a careless parent, your children often show worse behaviors than those they were shown to. Spending family time together will build a sense of worth and instill (灌输 ) positive family values in your children. 5 Do you want your children to learn important life lessons by having to experience pain? Of course, they will have to learn something on their own. But it is so important to have time for family discussion, where you can discuss some problems or situations on the table with your children. 6 All these things lead to a very important point. By spending more quality time together as a family, you will build a stronger family unit. Your family will stick together through rough times, and enjoy fun times together as well. 56.
