3.In 2000, with little but a bar and a church left to make it a destination, tiny St. James, Nebraska,was taken off state highway maps. Then the church closed, and the small farm village in the state’s northeast corner looked set to just disappear. Thanks to five devoted women, it didn’t. In May 2001, after meeting with staff from the Center for Rural Affairs, the friends—Louis Guy,Vicky Koch, Jeanette Pinkelman, Mary Rose Pinkelman and Violet Pinkelman—opened a weekend market for vendors(小商贩) to sell handcrafts and local food.“We felt like, what can we do to bring the community together?” says Mary Rose Pinkelman, “Wedecided to make a place to sell local goods.” They set up shop in the church school, which, though closed for nearly 40 years, had been well maintained. The first weekend, 16 vendors look over an old classroom. The result was an instant hit. Today, the market draws up to 70 vendors----who sell such items as homemade jellies, baked goods, hand-woven rugs, and farm-grown produce----and what Pinkelman calls an unexpected number of visitors. In the process, the market has made St.James a destination again, putting it back on the state road map.40.

7.Mark Twain is one of America's much-beloved authors, creating imaginative and humorous classics for children and adults alike, such as The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, The Prince and The Pauper, and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Twain passed away in 1910, leaving behind a treasure of great literature. But now, 100 years after his death,he'll have a brand-new book on the shelves: a three-volume autobiography.Twain hasn't been keeping busy in his tomb: it was his wish that publishers wait until 100 years after his death to publish his memoirs（自传）, which he spent the last decade of his life working on.The autobiography totals more than 5,000 pages, and likely won't be all sunshine and roses. It seems that Twain harbored some bitterness against former girlfriends and ex-friends. He also writes negatively about politicians of his day, such as Teddy Roosevelt. It's likely that he requested such a long lead time for the memoirs because he didn't want to hurt the feelings of anyone mentioned in this work.Although small sections of the memoirs have been previously published, the autobiography has never been available in full, and should provide great insights into the man behind the classic books. The first volume of the set will be available in November, and the trilogy is being published by the University of California, Berkeley."There are so many biographies of Twain, and many of them have used bits and pieces of the autobiography," editor Robert Hirst told The Independent. "But biographers pick and choose what bits to quote. By publishing Twain's bookin full, we hope that people will be able to come to their own complete conclusions about what sort of a man he was.What is the purpose of publishing Twain's autobiography?

12.Romeo and Juliet was probably written in 1595, when Shakespeare was a young successfulplaywright. He had already written comedies and history plays, but had not yet developed his shillin tragedy.The power of fate is strong to Shakespeare’s play. Chance and evil eventually join to bring tragedy.Chance involves Romeo in a murder, chance prevents a message from reaching Romeo in time,chance brings about a deadly meeting in a cemetery.Many Elizabethans were followers of astrology(星相术) and believed that the stars could controlevents. Thus, Romeo and Juliet art referred to as” star-crossed lovers” whose stars doomed(命中注定)them to disaster.Elizabethans also had a concept of fate in the person of Dame Fortune (命运女神). By spinning her wheel, she could raise the state of a beggar or a lower that of a king.

Didirresistible fate bring tragedy to Romeo and Juliet, or were they themselves to blame? The fact that this question is not resolved by the author also helps to make Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet a fascinating work.The passage indicates that Shakespeare put____ into Romeo and Juliet.
