In my case, there isnt much that is good about my apartment. My apartment has given me nothing but headaches. From the day I signed the lease, Ive had to deal with an uncooperative landlord, an incompetent janitor, and inconsiderate neighbors.First of all, my landlord has been uncooperative since the first day I moved to the apartment. He didnt let me bring my fish into the apartment. He said that pets are not allowed even though its just a fish. Because of that, I must leave my fish at my parents house. He also forbids me from using water from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. Because of that, I must wake up at 7 a.m. every day to take a bath. Of course I complained about this to him, but he said that is the apartments rule. Before I leased the apartment, he didnt say that there are such rules in the apartment.Ive had problems not only with my landlord but also with an incompetent janitor. The janitor is a retired policeman. He tried to fix the pipe in the apartment, but he flooded the apartment instead. He also broke my air conditioner when he tried to fix it. Because of that, my apartment becomes as hot as a desert every afternoon. Not only that, but he also broke my antique vase that cost me $100. Even worse, when he plugged his USB flash drive into my laptop to copy my songs, the viruses from his flash drive spread into my laptop. I had to reformat my laptop, and because of that, all of my important documents are gone.Perhaps the worst trouble of all has been with the inconsiderate neighbors who live in the apartment above me. My neighbors are two university students. They have lived upstairs for about one year. They like to party, so I cant sleep. This happened not only once, but every Saturday night. I tried to speak to them, but they suggested putting in ear plugs when Im about to sleep. On top of it all, they always turn up the volume of their music to the maximum.Sometimes, my apartment seems like a small, friendly oasis surrounded by hostile enemies. I never know what other trouble is going to come from next: the landlord, the janitor, or the neighbors. Home may be where the heart is, but my sanity is thinking about moving out.Translation9世界公民是指一個人承認(rèn)自己是新興的全球社區(qū)的一分子，而且其行動對全球社區(qū)的價值打造和實(shí)踐活動有所貢獻(xiàn)。世界公民相信人類從本質(zhì)上來說是一個整體，每個人都有改變事物的能力。在我們這樣一個相互依賴的世界中，世界公民意識鼓勵我們認(rèn)識到對彼此的責(zé)任，并從對方身上學(xué)習(xí)。世界公民關(guān)心全球的教育、疾病、貧窮和環(huán)境問題。在當(dāng)今，全球合作的力量在使一些人萌發(fā)世界公民的意識，讓他們擁有對全球社區(qū)的歸屬感。這種不斷發(fā)展的世界公民意識在很大程度上來講，要?dú)w功于現(xiàn)代信息、通信和交通技術(shù)的力量。世界公民意識致力于給予人們力量，讓他們付諸行動。世界公民除了要從世界問題中學(xué)習(xí)知識和價值觀，還要擁有必需的技能，使他們擁有能力和自信，積極推動世界的發(fā)展。Section BReading skills 12 Denotation: a large project, especially one that is difficultConnotation: Les Brown took his dream as an enterprise, a lifelong career, to which he attached great importance.
