    When I was ten years old on a family vacation to Las Vegas，I felt very uncomfortable.I was immediately taken to the' hospital.It turned out that I had a big stroke （中風）.It made me no longer able to talk，read，write and understand what anyone was saying to me.The entire right side of my body had no feeling.
    I stayed in the hospital for months.There I met my favorite doctor.Her last visit was the most important visit of all.She sent me a box as a gift.Inside was a little toy figure of a soldier.She said， "He's a fighter.You should be like him，David.As long as you try to be him，you can triumph over your illness at last."She moved her arms as she was fighting to help me understand.
   The next few years' fighting was really hard.I went to lots of speech and physical treatments.I did learn to walk again，but my right arm remained unable to feel anything.Slowly，I learned to talk again.I started with one syllable （音節(jié)）-then more.It allowed me to go to a special school.But I couldn't even spell my own name.Everything was about language and letters.Talking was hard.So was reading.I was sad.But I was still intelligent.Eventually，I decided to let life move on and do something for other stroke survivors.
    To help them，I founded a nonprofit （非盈利的） organization.I wrote a book on stroke recovery，which has become a guide for stroke survivors and their family members.To help people like me，I also keep speaking at national conferences and hospitals about how to better recover from the disease.Recently，I was invited to speak at a stroke conference to doctors and patients and tell my story.
    Today，I can walk，run，and drive.But I still can't use my right arm.However，there are so many things I can do.The fight to recover is hard.I'll never，ever give up.

1．I had been in the city for some time and was coming home.I missed my boat and decided to travel on an old ship.I knew that it would not be a comfortable journey but I had no time to wait for another boat.
   Hardly had we left the port when I saw the dog Gulliver，the captain's favourite dog，for the first time.What a big dog it was！I had never seen one that could frighten me so much!
   On the third day the ship caught fire.Nobody tried to put it out.The ship began sinking and all the men rushed to the lifeboats.I saw no chance of getting away in a boat.Suddenly I remembered there was a life raft（橡皮救生筏） on the ship.I had no time，so I immediately rushed towards the raft and pushed it into the water.
   In jumping down onto the raft I hurt myself badly and was unconscious for some time.When I came to，I found there was no sign of a lifeboat.Every man who had been on board the ship must have gone down with her.I was the only one who was saved.
   Then I saw Gulliver was coming fast towards the raft.It struggled a long time before it managed to get onto the raft.I wanted to push it back into the water but did not dare to move.The dog shook itself，went to the other end of the raft and lay down.I did not dare to sleep that night.I must watch it.In the moonlight I could see its eyes were open.It was watching，too.

2．When I lived in Spain，some Spanish friends of mine decided to visit England by car.Before they left，they asked me for advice about how to find accommodation.I suggested that they should stay at "bed and breakfast" houses，because this kind of accommodation 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 didn't stay at "bed and breakfast" houses，" they said， "because we found that most families were away on holiday."
   I thought this was strange.Finally I understood what had happened.My friends spoke little English，and they thought "VACANCIES" meant "holidays"，because the Spanish word for "holidays" is "vacaciones".So they did not go to house where the sign outside said "VACANCIES"，which in English means there are free rooms.Then my friends went to house where the sign said "NO VACANCIES"，because they thought this meant the people who owned the house were not away on holiday.But they found that these houses were all full.As a result，they stayed at hotels!
   We laughed about this and about mistakes my friends made in reading other signs.In Spanish，the word "DIVERSION" means fun.In English，it means that workmen are repairing the road，and that you must take a different road.When my friends saw the word "DIVERSION" on a road sign，they thought they were going to have fun.Instead，the road ended in a large hole.
   English people have problems too when they learn foreign languages.Once in Paris，when someone offered me some more coffee，I said "Thank you" in French.I meant that I would like some more.However，to my surprise，the coffeepot was taken away!Later I found out that "Thank you" in French means "No，thank you."

（1）The writer's friends in Spain wanted to get advice about

.
A．the chance of learning English

A．it would be convenient for them to have dinner
B．it would be much cheaper than staying in hotels
C．they would be able to practise their English
D．there would be no problem about finding accommodation there
（3）The writer's friends stayed at hotels at last because

.
A．they misunderstood the signs outside the door
B．there were no such "bed and breakfast" houses in England
C．they found there were no free rooms there
D．people there were away on holiday

.
A．fall into a hole
B．have to take a different road

3．The most frightening words in the English language are "Our computer is down"．You hear it more and more when you are on business．
   The other day I was at the airport waiting for a ticket to Washington and the girl in the ticket office said， "I'm sorry，I can't sell you a ticket．Our computer is down．"
   "If your computer is down，just write me out a ticket．"
   "I can't write you out a ticket．The computer is the only one allowed to do so．"
   I looked down on the computer and every passenger was just standing there drinking coffee and staring at the black screen．Then I asked her， "What do all your people do？"
   "We give the computer the information about your trip，and then it tells us whether you can fly with us or not．"
   "So when it goes down，you go down with it．"
   "That's right，sir．"
   "How long will the computer be down？" I wanted to know．
   "I have no idea．Sometimes it's down for 10 minutes，sometimes for two hours．There's no way we can find out without asking the computer，and since it's down it won't answer us．"
   After the girl told me they had no backup （備用） computer，I said， "Let's forget the computer．What about your planes？They're still flying，aren't they？"
   "I couldn't tell without asking the computer．"
   "Maybe I could just go to the gate and ask the pilot if he's flying to Washington，" I suggested．
   "I wouldn't know what gate to send you to．Even if the pilot was going to Washington，he couldn't take you if you didn't have a ticket．"
  "Is there any other airline flying to Washington within the next few hours？"
   "I wouldn't know，" she said，pointing at the dark screen． "Only 'IT' knows． 'IT' can't tell me．"
   By this time there were quite a few people standing in lines．The word soon spread to other travelers that the computer was down．Some people went white；some people started to cry and still others kicked their luggage．
