A
In China, many people are leaving the countryside to find jobs in the cities, because the countryside is much poorer than the city, and often there isn't much work there.Services such as hospital and transport (交通) are usually much better in the city than in the countryside.They hope that their lives will improve when they move to the city.
But in the big cities of Europe like London or Pads, people are moving out of the city.These rich families want to live a quieter life.They are tired of the noise and the dirt (尘土) of the city, and they are tired of the crowded streets, crowded trains and buses.They don't want to live in the cities any more.They want a house with a garden in the countryside, and breathe the fresh air there.
So they move out of the cities.Some don't go very far, just a little way out of the city, to the towns near the cities, other people move to the real countryside with sheep, cows and green fields.There, they start new lives and try to make new friends.

所谓的光辉岁月,并不是以后,闪耀的日子,而是无人问津时,你对梦想的偏执。
Not all those who move from the city to the countryside are happy.After two or three years, many people who have done this feel that it was a big mistake.They don't make so much money and there isn't much work to do.People in the countryside are very different and aren't always very friendly.
As a result, quite a lot of people who have moved to the countryside move back to the city.“It's_wonderful_to_see_crowds_in_the_streets_and_cinema_lights,” they say.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。介绍了中国人和欧洲人对居住在城市和农村的不同感受。大多数中国人从农村搬到城市,而欧洲的一些富人却喜欢从城市搬到农村。

(2016·四川高考)If you could have one superpower,what would it be?
Dreaming about whether you would want to read minds,see through walls,or have superhuman strength may sound silly,but it actually gets to the heart of what_really_matters_in_your_life.
Every day in our work,we are inspired by the people we meet doing extraordinary things to improve the world.
They have a different kind of superpower that all of us possess: the power to make a difference in the lives of others.
We're not saying that everyone needs to contribute their lives to the poor.Your lives are busy enough doing homework,playing sports,making friends,seeking after your dreams.But we do think that you can live a more powerful life when you devote some of your time and energy to something much larger than yourself.Find an issue you are interested in and learn more.Volunteer or,if you can,contribute a little money to a cause.Whatever you do,don't be a bystander.Get involved.You may have the opportunity to make your biggest difference when you're older.But why not start now?
Our own experience working together on health,development,and energy the last twenty years has been one of the most rewarding parts of our lives.It has changed who we are and continues to fuel our optimism about how much the lives of the poorest people will improve in the years ahead.
