题目内容

Most people graduate from school and then get a job. Everyone wants a job that pays well. How much money can you make? Ask yourself these questions: What can I do? What skills do I have? Also ask yourself: How much education do I have? For most jobs, the higher your education, the higher your earning power.

In the United States, high school graduates make about $18,600 a year. If you do not finish high school, you make only $10,800 a year. You can make $7,800 more each year by staying in high school!

If you stay in school, then you can make more money. A person with a high school degree makes about $18,600 a year. If that person goes to college and gets a bachelor’s degree (学士学位), he can make $42,000. With a master’s degree (硕士学位), he can make about $53,000. If the person gets a PhD (博士学位), he can make almost $79,000 or more a year.

We can learn a very important thing from this information. If you want to work and make more money, get a good education.

Your friends might be in England or may be just next-door neighbors, but they are all just a few clicks away. Life has changed a lot for millions of young people who like to make friends online around the world. Whether you use the chat room, QQ or MSN, you are in this group.

"I don't often talk with my parents or grandparents, but I talk a lot with my friends on QQ," said Tears in Hand, an online name used by a girl student in China.

QQ is the biggest messaging service in China. A report from the company which developed QQ says that 4 million people used it one Saturday night in October. And probably Tears in Hand was one of them. "I log in on Friday nights, Saturdays or Sundays, when I feel bored. I usually spend about ten hours chatting online every week," she said. "But I never talk with strangers, especially boys or men." Even though she likes chatting, she is careful about making friends with strangers online because she knows that she shouldn't believe in the strangers online easily.

Many people like to meet online friends when they feel they have got to know someone very well. Tears in Hand once met one online friend face to face and they went to a football match together.

A boy named Blue Sky dislikes QQ users, "I used to chat on QQ, but I found most people are talking about foolish things. Now I only chat in English on MSN with my Japanese or American friends because I want to learn more about foreign cultures." So he spends very little time chatting on QQ and he thinks it's a waste of time and money. He said, "If you are addicted to it, you can't concentrate on your lessons. We should know that friends in our real life are more important than those online ones.

As I was finishing seventh grade, my school decided to make some changes because of financial(财政的)problems. The school would make the classes bigger, so there could be fewer teachers.①We needed to write down the names of people we wanted to be with and didn't want to be with. I wrote down the names of all my close friends.

I found out that none of my close friends were in any of my new classes. Also, my new classmates were quite different from my old ones. I thought they weren't as smart as my old classmates. They were also not in the school activities I was in. I couldn't find common interests with them.

As the year went on, I began to feel lonely and envy people in other groups. Why could they be with all their friends? As I found out, they didn't have many friends at first. They had made new friends in their new classes. They seemed pretty happy with their new friends.

I decided it was time for me to make new friends. I noticed that the people with many friends were very active. ②They often talked to others first, while I was too scared to talk to others and hoped other people would talk to me first.

Once I realized that, I found that making friends is very easy if you can accept people for who they are, respect them, and talk to them. Now I feel a lot happier because I have more friends.

The eagle has the longest life of its group. It can reach up to

70 years. But to reach this age, the eagle must make a hard and

painful decision.

When an eagle reaches near 40, its short sharp beak becomes

bent（弯曲的）. Its long and once flexible（灵活的） talons

can no longer catch animals or birds for food. And its old and

heavy wings with thick feathers on its body make it difficult to fly.

Then, the eagle has only tow choices: to die or to go through a

painful time of change which needs five months.

When the eagle feels weak and is about to die, it goes to a

place far away on the top of a mountain and sits on a nest. For a new life, the eagle knocks its beak against a rock until it pulls its beak out. After pulling it out, the eagle waits for a new beak to grow. And then it pulls out its talons and old feathers. It takes the eagle five months to complete its change and get a new life. We can call it its rebirth. So it can live for 30 more years.

Like the eagle, we human beings sometimes need to make some change to get out of our difficulty. Inmiserablecondition, we have to change our ways of life. The changing may be very painful. But sometimes we have to throw off our old habits, memories and traditions. We can’t go on with all our past burdens（重负）.

1.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. When an eagle reaches near 40, its short sharp beak is still straight.

B. For a new life, the eagle knocks its talons against a rock.

C. If the eagle doesn’t change itself, it will have a new life.

D. The writer’s idea is that we can’t go on with all our past burdens.

2.The underlined word“miserable” here probably means“ ”.

A. terrible B. good C. lonely D. lucky

3.The best title for the passage can be“ ”.

A. The death of the eagle

B. The living period of the eagle

C. A good and easy decision

D. Rebirth of the eagle

What's the most important thing for you to have in your life? Somebody mentions hard work; others suggest knowledge, love and luck.

If you arrange(排列)the 26 English letters in

order and use numbers to represent each of them, for

example, 1 for a, 2 for b, 3 for c. . . 26 for z, you can

change an English word into a number. So hard work

becomes 8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11=98，meaning 98

is its mark; knowledge: 11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5

=96;love:12+15+22+5=54, and luck: 12+21+3+11=47，

a small mark. None of these words can give one a full

mark. What about money? It can't, either.

Then what else? Don't be worried. You can always find an answer to a problem in your life, when you change your way of looking at things or doing things, or your attitude. Yes, attitude is the word. See for yourself : attitude:1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5=100，a full mark.

Different attitudes lead to different courses of life. Most time people hope for a better life. It is possible that they will have a better life if they change their attitudes. When you change your manner and became friendly toward others, you'll meet more smiling faces toward you. In the same way, if you take a positive attitude toward failure, you'll find it's also rewarding(有益的)though it has caused you losses(损失).
