a)　 And so the summer holidays were over, and one fine morning, September the first,I got up earlier than usual, put my school-books in my satchel and set out for school. That morning there was a feeling　　of excitement in the air. The streets were full of boys and girls,big and small, hurrying to school. Some walked by themselves,some in pairs and some in bunches. Some of them walked slowly,as I did; others hurried along as if there was a fire somewhere. The little ones carried flowers for the classrooms. Everyone seemed very excited. I was excited too.I was looking forward to seeing my Pioneer group, and all the boys from my class, and our Pioneer leader Volodya who worked with us last year. I felt like a traveller coming back to his home and friends after a long,long voyage.

b)What do you think happens on September the first?

c)Name two ways in which the children walked.

d)Was there a feeling of excitement everywhere in the streets?

B)　 The basic principles of Marxism are undoubtedly adaptable to all countries. But it is a difficult job to apply their general truth to concrete revolutionary practices in China. Chairman Mao analyzes Chinese problems and guides the Chinese people in their struggle to victory. He uses Marxist-Leninist principles to explain Chinese history and the practical problems of China. He is the first who has succeeded in doing so. Not only has he applied Marxist methods to solve the problems of 500,000,000 people, but he has thereby popularized Marxism among the Chinese people as a weapon for them to use.On every kind of problem—the nation, the peasants, strategy, the construction of the party, literature and culture, military affairs,finance and economy, methods of work, philosophy—Chairman Mao has not only applied Marxism to new conditions but has given it a new development. He has created a Chinese or Asiatic form of Marxism.

a)What new development has Chairman Mao given to Marxism?

b)Why are the principles of Marxism the general truth?

c)Name three kinds of problems which Chairman Mao has solved with Marxist methods.

d)Did any one succeed in solving the practical problems of China with Marxist-Leninist principles before Chairman Mao?

If I asked you whether dust is of any use ,what answer would you give? You would probably say that it is of no use at all. You would say that dust in the home only makes it very unhealthy, and that much time has to be spent every day in cleaning the rooms. It is true that many germs live in dust, germs carrying disease. But dust is far from useless; it has a use which we value highly.For without dust in the air, we should not have the gentle rain, the soft daylight, the beauty of the blue sky and the glorious colours of sunset.

假如我问你灰尘是否有用，你会怎么回答呢？你或许会说，灰尘根本无用。你会说，屋里有了灰尘，只能使它极不卫生，得花很多时间去打扫房间。是的，灰尘里确有许多细菌，细菌会传染疾病。但是，灰尘决不是毫无用处的；而且，我们对它的一个用处还给予高度的评价。因为如果空气中没有灰尘，就不会有柔和的细雨，和煦的阳光，美丽的蓝天和落日的霞辉。
