Although Robby worked very hard, he didn’t have a basic   3  of music. However, he never   4  up and continued. And at the end of each weekly lesson he’d always say: “My mom is going to hear me   5  some day.” But it seemed   6 . He didn’t have a natural talent or ability for music.
One day Robby   7  to our lessons very late. He told me that his mom had been 8  and unable to take him to piano lessons, but he was still   9  in class. He asked if he could take part in my concert and I   10 .
The night of the concert came. The high school gym(体育馆) was   11  with parents, friends and relatives. The concert was going well. Then, Robby came up on stage. He announced (宣布) that he had chosen Mozart’s Concerto No 21 in C Major. I was not prepared for what I heard next.   
His   12  danced on the keys…
He played so   13  that everyone was on his feet, clapping excitedly. In tears, I ran up on stage, “Oh, Robby! How could you do it?”
“Well, Miss Hondorf... remember I told you my mom was sick? Well, actually she had cancer(癌) and   14  away this morning. And well… she was born deaf, so tonight was the first time she ever heard me play at the   15 . I wanted to make it special and show her I could do it! My mother’s dream came true at last.”

In the United States, when one becomes rich, he wants people to know it. And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what “keeping up with the Joneses” is about. It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbours.
The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $ 125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighbourhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand went horseback riding every day. When he saw that rich people had servants, Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbours.
It was like a race, but one could never finish his race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to an apartment in New York City.
Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich lifestyle of their neighbours. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories. He called it “Keeping up with the Joneses” because “Jones” is a very common name in the United States. “Keeping up with the Joneses” came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you. Momand’s series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years.
People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And there are “Joneses” in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr. Jones always seems to be ahead.
小题1:Some people want to keep up with the Joneses because they ________.
A．want to be as rich as their neighbours
B．want others to know or to think that they are rich
C．don’t want others to know they are rich
D．want to be happy
小题2:It can be inferred (推断) from the story that rich people like to ________.
A．live outside New York CityB．live in New York City
C．live in apartmentsD．have many neighbours
小题3:Arthur Momand used the name “Jones” in his series of short stories because “Jones” is ________.
A．an important nameB．a popular name in the United States
C．his neighbour’s nameD．not a good name
小题4:If a person who keeps up with the Joneses, he would _________.
A．do as the poor persons around him do
B．do everything he likes to do
C．do as his neighbours do
D．do as the rich people around him do
My friends and I had just finished lunch at a hotel when it started to rain heavily. When it became lighter, I decided to get my   1  which was parked at my office three streets away.
My friends   2  that I shouldn’t go, mainly because I was seven months pregnant (怀孕的) then. I promised that I’d be very   3 . One of them wanted to come with me but I insisted that she stayed with another friend who needed help   4  her baby.
I walked out of the hotel and started making my way to the car. At the crossing, a van stopped and a man came out with an umbrella. Before I knew what was happening, he walked right   5  me and told me he’d escort (护送) me. Although I refused, he insisted that he would.
During our walk, he kept telling me to walk slower, as the ground was   6 . When we got to the car-park, I thanked him and he went away. I did not get his name and can   7  recognize (认出) him now. Did he stop for me? I’ll never know.
So how did I pay it forward? I was at home when I noticed two Indian workers   8  in the heavy rain. They were probably on their way to the working place near my home. I went out and passed them my   9 , telling them they should take and keep it. They were surprised by my action. They were very grateful to me, probably   10  why a stranger was offering such kindness. I was so relaxed and happy that day.

Almost every Chinese person can recite the two lines of the famous poem, “Every grain on the plate comes from hard work.” But sadly, many of us don’t actually get the real meaning of these lines: Don’t waste food.
A CCTV program, News One Plus One, reported that the food Chinese people throw away every year is enough to feed 200 million people for a year.
Do we have too much food? According to the UN World Food Program, there were 925 million hungry people around the world in 2010, especially in developing countries. Six million children die of hunger every year.
Chinese people are well known for being generous(慷慨的). Many even feel that they lose face if their guests have eaten all the food on the table.
Luckily, a number of people have realized the importance of saving food. Last November, Li Hong, a waitress in a restaurant in Nanjing, got fired(开除) because she took some leftover(剩余的) food home for her son. Many people stood by her side and agreed that it was not right to waste food.
What should we do in our daily lives to waste less food? Here are some tips:
1. Do not order(点菜) too much in a restaurant. Only order what you want to eat. If you cannot eat all the food you ordered, take the rest of it home.
2. Don’t be too picky(挑剔的) about food. Some food may not taste great, but your body needs it.
3. Keep an eye on what food you have at home. Don’t buy too much, especially for vegetables and fruit.

In life, people come across many experiences, which they remember all their lives. I had a similar experience, too.
It was the day of my last paper of the final exam. My uncle had invited me to spend my vacation with him. I was especially excited about the invitation that my uncle had given me to stay with him for a few days in Cambridge.
On that day we got into our classroom. The teacher quickly handed out the paper. The exam would last two hours and some of the expected questions came. I finished it almost forty-five minutes earlier. But since it was a rule not to collect the paper before the allotted（规定的）time. I had to sit till the teacher collected the paper. I checked my paper twice and corrected some of the mistakes in it. I started thinking about the place my friends and I had planned to go to after the exam. The time seemed to be endless. So I thought of drawing something on the paper and turned it overleaf. I was shocked to see that the page which I had supposed to be blank had four more questions on it which carried 20 marks and would take at least half an hour to complete. There were only 10 minutes left. I was so nervous that I could hardly write anything. They were the sub-questions（小题）of the last question. Suddenly our physics teacher came in and told all of us that in the last question, out of 6 sub-questions only 2 had to be solved. I felt very relieved.
From then on, I realized that my anxiousness and excitement could have cost me to lose 20 marks and decided never to make such a mistake again.

People have different ways of greeting each other. They might shake hands (握手), kiss or hug (拥抱). But do you ever wonder how dogs say hello?
If you are a dog lover, you already know the answer to this question. When you arrive home, your dog jumps up into your lap (大腿前部). It wags (摇摆) its tail, and sometimes gives you wet kisses.
Like humans, dogs have five senses (感觉): smell, touch, sight, hearing and taste. Humans use sight as the main sense for recognizing (认出) one another. But dogs have poor eyesight. They use smell to recognize others. A dog’s sense of smell is much better than a human’s. It is through its sense of smell that tells the differences between different people.
Dogs use smell to recognize other dogs, too. They tell the differences by the smell of pee (小便) and pooh (大便). When two dogs meet, they smell each other’s noses. Then they go side to side, and smell each other’s butts (屁股). By smelling its friend’s behind, a dog knows who it is with.
That is also why dogs smell everything they can on the road. By smelling grass, trees and signposts (路标), dogs know which other neighborhood dogs have been around.
小题1:People have different ways of greeting each other except ______.
A．hug B．shaking handsC．jump D．kiss
小题2:How does a dog greet you?
A. Gives you wet kisses.                       B. Wags its tail.

A．They use eyes to recognize each other.B．They use sound to recognize each other.
C．They use smell to recognize each other.D．They use touch to recognize each other.
小题4:Which of the following isn’t mentioned in the passage?
A．How the dogs eat things.B．Dogs have five senses.
C．A dog knows who it is with by smelling.D．Humans use sight to recognize each other.

On Saturday afternoon, I have to go to the children’s palace to learn the piano. Do you have lots of rules? Are they fair?

You either have it, or you don’t－a sense of direction. But why is it that some people could find their way across the Sahara without a map while others can lose themselves in the next street?
Scientists say we’re all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood how it works. One theory is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it. Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we don’t use it, we lose it.
“Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around,” says Jim Martland, research director of the project. “However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop the skills.”
Jim Martland also emphasizes that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction. He makes the following suggestions:
If you are using a map, turn it so that it relates to(与……有联系) the way you are facing.
If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something like a big stone or a tree－something easy to recognize. Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike. When you return, go back along the same route.
Simplify(简化) the way for finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town, streams, or wells in the countryside to guide you. Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note any landmarks such as towerblocks or hills which can help to find out where you are.
Now you will never get lost again!
小题1:Children have the ability to find the way around when they are ______ years old.
A．5B．6 C．7D．8
小题2:Which of the following things cannot be used as landmarks?
A．Tower blocks.B．Hills.C．Wells.D．Bikes.
小题3:What does the underlined word “emphasize” mean in the passage?
A．To give special importance to something.
B．To express thanks for somebody.
C．To understand or become aware of a fact.
D．To admire somebody.
小题4:Scientists believe that __________.
A．some babies are born with a sense of direction
B．people learn a sense of direction as they grow older
C．people never lose their sense of direction
D．everybody has a sense of direction from birth
小题5:What may be the best title of the passage?
A．A research on direction.
B．A sense of direction.
C．People’s ability of finding the way.
D．Scientists’ research on skills.
