I had traveled a long distance from India in order to join my parents, who had been for three years, hoping America would help my future. My father decided that I would be better off going to school here, so I enrolled(登記)in the local high school in my new town. I was afraid how I would do. On the first day, I went to my second period class after I had missed my first. With anxiety, I reached for the door, opening it slowly. Without paying attention to my classmates, I went straight to the teacher and asked if this was the right class. With a soft voice he answered. Yes. His voice forted me a little. He gave me a sheet called Course Requirements, which I would never get in India because we didn39。t have anything like that. Then he asked me to choose where I would sit. I didn39。t actually want to pick a seat. In India we had fixed seats, so I never needed to worry about that. I spent the rest of the class taking notes from the image produced by the overhead projector. In Indian schools, we didn39。t use the technology we had. We had to take notes as the teacher spoke. It was noon. I was very confused about when I would have lunch. I went to my next class and the bell rang as I entered. I went through the regular process of asking the teacher if I was in the right class. She said, It39。s still fourth period. But the bell just rang, I said. Changing from a gentle tone to a harsher(刺耳的)one, she said, That is the lunch bell, young man. I apologized. Without another word I headed for the cafeteria. I felt lucky because we didn39。t have this in India. Every confusion seemed like a barrier I had to get through to reach my goal. At the end of the day, I was on my way to the bus which we didn39。t have in India either. I spotted my bus and sat down inside happily. I was thinking, today wasn39。t so bad.(1)The author attended an American high school because _______.

Pei, the ChineseAmerican, who was regarded as one of the last great modernist architects, has died at the age of 102. Although he worked mostly in the United States, Pei will always be remembered for a European project: His redevelopment of the Louvre Museum in Paris in the 1980s. He gave us the glass and metal pyramid in the main courtyard, along with three smaller pyramids and a vast subterranean (地下的) addition to the museum entrance. Pei was the first foreign architect to work on the Louvre in its long history, and initially his designs were fiercely opposed. But in the end, the French—and everyone else—were won over. Winning the fifth Pritzker Architecture Prize in 1983, he was thought as giving the 20th century some of its most beautiful inside spaces and outside forms … His talent and skill in the use of materials approach the level of poetry. After studying architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard, Pei set up his own architectural practice in New York in 1955. Designing the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library amp。 Museum in 1964 established him as a name. His East Building of the National Gallery of Art in Washington in 1978 changed people39。s ideas of a museum. The site was an odd trapezoid (梯形) shape. Pei39。s solution was to cut it in two. The resulting building was dramatic, light and elegant—one of the first crowdpleasing cathedrals of modern art. Though known as a modernist, and notable for his forms based on arrangements of simple geometric (幾何的) shapes, he once urged Chinese architects to look more to their architectural tradition rather than designing in a western style. In person, . Pei was goodhumored, charming and unusually modest. His working process was evolutionary, but innovation (創(chuàng)新) was never an intended goal. Stylistic originality is not my purp
