His real name was William Sydney Porter. He was born in North Carolina in 1862. As a young boy he lived an exciting life. He did not go to school for very long, but he managed to teach himself everything he needed to know. When he was about 20 years old, O. Henry went to Texas, where he tried different jobs. He first worked on a newspaper, and then had a job in a bank. When some money went missing from the bank, O. Henry was believed to have stolen it. Because of that, he was sent to prison. During the three years in prison, he learned to write short stories. After he got out of prison, he went to New York and continued writing.

It is only when we cannot see perfectly that we realize how important our eyes are. People who are near-sighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes, and eve rything else seems blurry (=unclear). Many people who do a lot of work, such as writing, reading and sewing become nearsighted. However, People who are far-sighted suffer from just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty in reading a book unless they hold it at arms length. If they want to do much reading, they must get glasses, too. Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. They have what is called astigmatism (散光). This, too, can be corrected by glasses. Some peoples eyes become cloudy because of cataracts (白内障). Long ago these people often became blind. Now, however, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them. Having two good eyes is important for judging distances. Each eye sees things from a slightly different angle (角度). To prove this to yourself, look at an object out of one eye; then look at the same object out of your other eye. You will find the objects relation to the background and other things around it has changed. The difference between these two different eye views helps us to judge how far away an object is. People who have only one eye cannot judge distance as people with two eyes.60. We should take good care of our eyes_A. only when we can see wellB. 0nly when we can not see perfectlyC. even if we can see wellD. 0nly when we realize how important our eyes are61.

A. seeing at night B. seeing objects far away C. looking over a wide areaD. judging distances63. People who suffer from astigmatism have_. A. one eye bigger than the other B. eyes that are not exactly the right shape C. a difficulty that can be corrected by an operation D. an eye difficulty that cannot be corrected by glassesCMarch, April and May are months full of festivals and events all over the world. Here are some wonderful festivals around the world that happen in spring.SongKran-ThailandDates: 13th-15th, AprilIn Thailand, its time to celebrate the coming monsoon season, which will bring the rain many people have been looking forward to. They celebrate it with a festival called Songkran，when people head out to the streets with water guns to spray(喷，洒）everyone who walks past.

The festival is most famous for its “land di ving ceremony”. During the ceremony men and boys dive to the ground from high wooden towers with only two thin vines(藤条) attached(附于)to their ankles(脚踝）. The divers heads have to lightly touch the ground when they jump-something very dangerous if the vines are not measured（测量）properly.Cherry Blossom Viewing -JapanDates: The cherry blossom season is different from year to year depending on the weather forecast.The cherry blossom season has huge importance to the people of Japan, who celebrate the days when the flowers finally blossom. Only a few days later, the petals(花瓣） fall to the ground, like pink snowflakes. This is one of the most beautiful things to see. In Japan, almost everyone has picnics in the parks to view the flowers.Sinhalese New Year-Sri LankaDates: 13th or 14th, AprilJust like in many other countries in South an South East Asia, this is the time when the Sinhalese celebrate the traditional New Year, an ancient celebration which marks the end of the harvest season and is one of two times of the year when the sun is straight above Sri Lanka.

Isuggested that they should stay at bed and breakfast houses, because this kind ofaccommodation gives a foreign visitor a good chance to speak English with the family.My friends listened to my advice, but they came back with some funny stories.We didnt stay at bed and breakfast houses, they said, because we found that mostfamilies were away on holiday.I thought this was strange. Finally I understood what had happened. My friends spokelittle English, and they thought VACANCIES meant holidays, because the Spanish wordfor holidays is vacaciones. So they did not go to house where the sign outside saidVACANCLES, which in English means there are free rooms. Then my friends went tohouse where the sign said NO VACANCLES, because they thought this meant the peoplewho owned the house were not away on holiday. But they found that these houses wereall full. As a result, they stayed at hotels!We laughed about this and about mistakes my friends made in reading other signs.
