Two traveling angles stopped to spend the night in the home of a wealthy family. The family was rude and refused to let the angles stay in the mansion’s guestroom. Instead the angles were given a small space in the cold basement. As they made their bed in the hard floor, the older angel saw a hole in the wall and repaired it. When the younger angle asked why, the older angle replied, “Things aren’t always what they seem.”
The next night the pair came to rest at the house of a very poor, but very hospitable farmer and his wife. After sharing the little food they had the couple let the angles sleep in their bed where they could have a good
night’s rest. When the sun came up the next morning the angles found the farmer and his wife in tears. Their only cow, whose milk had been their sole income, lay dead in the field. The younger angle was infuriated and asked the older angle how he could have let this happen. “The first man had everything, yet you helped him,” he accused. “The second family had little but was willing to share everything, and you let the cow die”.
“Things aren’t always what they seem,” the older angle
replied. “when we stayed in the basement of the mansion, I noticed there was gold stored in that hole in the wall. Since the owner was so obsessed with greed and unwilling to share his good fortune, I sealed the wall so he wouldn’t find it.”
“Then last night as we slept in the farmer’s bed, the angle of death came for his wife. I gave him the cow instead. Things aren’t always what they seem.”
【小題1】What's the best title of the passage?
| A．Two Angles Spread Love |
| B．Things Aren’t Always What They Seem |
| C．The Rich And The Poor |
| D．Tales of Angles |
| A．a(chǎn)mused | B．a(chǎn)ngry | C．puzzled | D．disappointed |

| C．The younger angle agreed with what the older angle did at first. |

The Writers' Strike：Making the Best of the Worst
By now you are probably feeling the effects of the TV writers’ strike---the decision of television writers to stop working．With few new TV shows, I present to you a list of shows available on DVD worth your viewing time to keep you going during this painful period．
Arrested Development is one of the funniest and most clever shows ever to have appeared on network TV．With a most perfect cast（全體演員）, the show sets out to cover the daily happenings of the Bluth family, a group of selfish staff who manage to still put family first．
For more comedy goodness, I recommend one of the sharpest comedies to have ever broadcast, 30 Rock．Starring Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin, two stars with impressive comic timing, the show gives you a glimpse into the making of a sketch show （幽默短劇）,similar to Saturday Nigth Live, from the funny writers to the self-centered cast all the way up to the boss．
If you are looking for something more serious, or perhaps Friday Night lights might be more to your liking．If you are a fan of football, this show is probably for you．If you are a fan of great drama, both soapy and serious, this show is probably for you, If you are a fan of good-looking people, this show is definitely for you ．
If those shows were not enough for you, might I recommend a show with a more heart-pounding excitement? The Amazing Race, after twelve seasons, still remains one of the most exciting shows on TV．Teams of two travel the globe with little to no money and experience far-out adventures in an attempt to remain the last team standing．
If you are fond of soapy TV shows, you will probably choose to watch ．
A．Friday Night Lights B．30 Rock
C．the Amazing Race D．Saturday Night Live
From the DVD shows listed above, we can learn that ．
A．two teams won the amazing race
B．football fans enjoy the Amazing Race
