阅读理解

    Many teenagers feel that the most important people in their lives are their friends. They believe that their family members, and even their parents, don't know them as well as their friends do. In large families, it is quite often for brothers and sisters to fight with each other and then they can only go to their friends for advice.

    It is very important for teenagers to have good friends or a circle of friends. Even when they are not with their friends, they usually spend a lot of time talking on the phone. This communication (交流) is very important in children's growing up, because friends can discuss something difficult to say to their family members.

    However, parents often try to choose their children's friends for them. Some parents may even stop their children from meeting their good friends. Have you ever thought of the following questions?

    Who chooses your friends?

    Do you choose your friends or your friends choose you?

    Have you got a good friend your parents don't like?

    Your answers are welcome.

Liu Lingli was born in Hengyang, Hunan Province in 1973. She has been a teacher for hearing-impaired (听力受损的) children for 33 years. 

When she was fourteen, she went to study in Nanjing Normal University of Special Education. After graduation, she became a teacher at Hengyang Normal School of Special Education and taught Chinese language to first graders. She practiced sign language in front of the mirror for about two hours every day till she mastered it. 

In 2005, at the age of 32, Liu gave birth to her own child. Unluckily, the boy was found to be hearing-impaired when he was seven months old. Instead of taking him to hospital, she provided therapy (治疗) for the child herself after work. Because of Liu's tireless efforts, her son could make some sound after several months of training. 

In order to help her students speak, she puts her lips against their hands to let them feel the movement of the lips and the flow of the air. After class, she also has one-on-one training with each student for 20 minutes every day. As a result, she usually has a sore throat at the end of the day and her voice becomes hoarse. 

Liu believes anyone can succeed if he never gives up. Thanks to her help, many students showed great improvement. More than 20 of the over 80 students she has taught have received higher education. Deng Liang, one of her first students, graduated from Tianjin University of Technology in 2007. 

For her contributions (贡献) to society, especially her work with the hearing-impaired, Liu Lingli was elected as a deputy to the National People's Congress (全国人大代表) last year, and received the Person Touching China award for 2023 in April, 2024.

When talking about the Chinese food going abroad, you can't forget River Snail Rice Noodles, or Luosifen. It is one of the most popular snacks in Liuzhou City, Guangxi province. The dish is famous for its strong smell. Do you know how to make Luosifen?

The first step is to prepare some rice noodles, river snails and different kinds of ingredients. To make it, firstly, people should soak (浸泡) the rice noodles in water until they are soft. After that, wash the river snails and make soup. When the rice noodles and the soup are ready, then boil rice noodles with sour bamboo shoots (酸竹笋), dried tofu skin, fresh vegetables and peanuts in river snail soup. The taste mostly comes from the sour bamboo shoots. This ingredient gives Luosifen its unique taste. "Without the sour bamboo shoots, Luosifen will lose its soul (灵魂)," some people say.

In the 1970s, Luosifen was just a cheap street snack in Liuzhou. People outside of the city knew little about it. It became an intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) of Guangxi in 2008. Four years later, a popular Chinese food show, A Bite ofChina, made Luosifen known to the public and then it became a household name, from then on, Luosifen has become popular around China.

Now more and more Luosifen restaurants are opened not only in the big cities in China, but also in many foreign(外国的) countries like the US, Australia, Germany and so on. People can also buy instant (速食的) Luosifen online on apps such as Taobao and TikTok, You can enjoy Luosifen wherever you like.

When I was young,I worked in San Francisco. I did my job well and my future was promising. I was alone in the world and I was happy. I didn't have to work on Saturdays. I enjoyed my time off in my little sailboat on San Francisco Bay. One Saturday afternoon,I sailed out too far. The strong wind pushed my sailboat out of the bay,into the Pacific Ocean

That night,when I had lost all hope,a small British boat saw me and took me on board. The boat was sailing to London. The voyage was long and stormy. I worked as a sailor to pay for my trip. 

When I arrived in London,my clothes were old and dirty. I had only one dollar in my pocket. With this dollar,I ate and slept for the first twenty-four hours. During the next twenty-four hours,I didn't eat and I didn't sleep. The following morning,I went to Portland Place. I saw a child walking past,holding a big pear. The child ate one small piece and then threw the pear onto the street. 

I stopped and looked at it. I was very hungry and I really wanted that pear. But every time I tried to get it, someone passed by and looked at me. I quickly turned in the other direction and waited for the person to pass by. I tried again and again to get that pear,but the same thing happened. I was hopeless. But soon I made a determination(决心)to get the pear and not to worry about the people who saw me. 

Then,a gentleman opened a window behind me and said,"Come in here,please. "A well-dressed servant took me into a beautiful room. Here,two old gentlemen were sitting and discussing something important. Their breakfast was still on the table. I was very hungry and I stared at their breakfast. I want to tell the reader that the two gentlemen had made a bet(打赌)several days before. I knew nothing about the bet until later. Let me tell you what happened.
