Who is there among us that hasn't dreamed of having his or her own small ( maybe, several years later, even big) business, and having wonderful freedom, both from a boss and from the time clock: the freedom to make up our own rules for our work, and our own plans--arranging our own hours of work? That way work would be both painless and fun. Or, so we imagine.

Well, in fact it isn't quite as simple as that. Yes, it is true that being the boss has its satisfactions and that you can arrange your working hours freely if you own your own small business. But in those early years of starting your own business, you shouldn't think of a free day, not to mention flying off for a month's vacation. It is not unusual for new business owners to work seventy or eighty hours a week, and if there is a day off, that day might need to be devoted to accounting(算账).

But this negative picture doesn't destroy the beautiful hopes. The possibility of getting something wonderful in return--both material and mental--continues to drive that large number of people who start up small businesses each year in the United States.

1.From the first paragraph, we know that everybody hopes_______.

A. to rule others B. to be his or her own boss

C. to get a time clock D. to be free from work

2.Most new business owners have to_______.

A. work more than 10 hours a day

B. devote himself to accounting

C. fly to some places in the world

D. have a day off in a week

3.The beautiful hopes will never be destroyed because_______.

A. people love beautiful things by nature

B. people have a strong desire to seek personal gains

C. small businesses make big money each year in the US

D. small businesses have advantages over big companies.

4.Which is the main idea of the passage?

A. Many people have dreamed of having his or her own small business.

B. Being your own boss is painless and fun.

C. Business owners often work seventy or eighty hours a week.

D. Although being your own boss is not easy, many people are starting their own businesses to get something wonderful in return.

Miss sending letters? Try Lettrs! This new service brings back the art of letter writing by marrying it to the Internet.

Lettrs, a new site, is attempting to bring back the old-fashioned idea of letter writing by providing a space that feels a little bit like a writing desk.

Of course, there’ll be purists who say that to truly enjoy letter writing you must do it on fancy letter paper and envelope in the mail is part of the fun. And if you’re into that sort of thing, go for it. But I can’t be the only one who is now so much faster at typing that writing by hand is painfully slow. Nor can I be the only one who likes to write on a whim (一时兴起) when I’m going to be on a crowded train or airplane, both of which are situations where writing on the computer is far easier.

The site tries, pretty seriously, to approximate(接近) what it’s like to have your very own writing desk and paper to choose from (which comes in various prints and colors) as well as corresponding（通信）types of prints and cursive writing (草写体) that come out on your screen as you write. There’s also a “desk drawer” for letters you’ve already sent, a “fridge” to post letters publicly, a “kitchen counter” for letters you have just received, and “shoebox” to store your letters in.

And if you need inspiration there are even old-style letters that are great examples of the kind of correspondence people used to send. Lettrs is such a great idea, because you get the best parts of communicating online (typing rather than writing, the speed, no lost mail, and it’s free! ) with the nice parts of a letter－the sense of sitting down to write, quietly, to one person in a meaningful way.

Who would you write to?

1.How does Lettrs work according to the text?

A. By providing real paper for letter writers.

B. By making room for people to write letters.

C. By supplying writing desks to letter writers.

D. By combining letter writing with the Internet.

2.It can be inferred from the text that the author_________.

A. is one of the purists

B. prefers writing to typing

C. always hopes to get paper letters

D. likes using Lettrs to write letters

3.A Lettrs user can find a newly received letter in or on a“_________”.

A. desk drawer B. fridge

C. kitchen counter D. shoebox

4.What is the main purpose of the author writing the text?

A. To advise readers to use Lettrs.

B. To tell readers how to write letters.

C. To persuade readers to write letters.

D. To show the advantage of the Internet.

5.What is the text mainly about?

A. An old art of letter writing.

B. A new service of letter writing.

C. The advantages of letter writing.

D. The development of letter writing.

Many years ago, when I graduated from school and was working in Denver, I was driving to my parents' home in Missouri for Christmas. I stopped at a gas station about 50 miles from Oklahoma City, where I was planning to stop and visit a friend. While I was standing in line at the cash register (收款台), I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas.

I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. I stopped and wondered what I should do. A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friend's. We chatted on the way into the city, and when I got out of the car, the husband gave me his business card.

I wrote him and his wife a thank-you note for helping me. Soon afterward, I received a Christmas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.

Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In late afternoon I returned to my car and found that I'd left the lights on all day, and the battery was dead. Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership－a shop selling cars－was right next door. I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom.

"Just how friendly is Friendly Ford?" I asked and explained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. They would accept no payment, so when I got home, I wrote them a note to say thanks. I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you, and it meant a lot, he said.

"Thank you"－two powerful words. They're easy to say and mean so much.

1.The words "took off" underlined in Paragraph 2 mean "_____".

A. turned off B. moved off

C. put off D. set up

2.What happened when the author found smoke coming out of his car?

A. He had it pulled back to the gas station.

B. The couple sent him a business card.

C. The couple offered to help him.

D. He called his friend for help.

3.The battery of the author's car was dead because _____.

A. he forgot to turn off the lights

C. he drove too long a distance

D. something went wrong with the lights

4. By telling his own experiences, the author tries to show _____.

A. how to write a thank-you letter

B. how to deal with car problems

C. the kind-heartedness of other people

D. the importance of expressing thanks

A recent report found 46% of parents agreed that their child knew more about the Internet than they did. And now new research shows parents are turning to their children for lessons in technology.

The new study of around 1,000 parents showed that 67% of parents have asked their teenager children for technology-related advice. 44% have asked their teenager for help using the Internet, and 41% have received teen advice about how to use the TV or home entertainment system.

Ahad Surooprajally, a father of five children, says his children help him with technology in the home. “They’ve grown up surrounded by technology,” he explains. “We have four computers and four iPads in our house. If I want to know something technical they're the ones I go to.”

He says his nine-year-old son Habeeb is the only person in the house who really understands the TV. So he tells Habeeb which film he wants to watch and Habeeb connects his mobile phone to the TV. “You teach your kids everyday life lessons, but the tables are turned when it comes to technology,” says Ahad.

As well as learning how to use technology properly, there is another advantage of parents asking their children to help them understand the digital world. They may be able to get a better understanding of what their kids are doing online.

Will Gardner of the charity Childnet International says, “We have to continuously encourage parents to find out more about what their children are doing online. If the kids are using a social networking site, get them to show you around it if you are not using it already.”

1.What do we know about the new study?

A. Few parents trust their children to give them advice.

B. About half of the parents have no idea how to use a computer.

C. Most teenagers know more about the Internet than their parents.

D. Over two-thirds of parents turned to their teenagers on tech matters.

2.What does the underlined part “the tables are turned” probably mean?

A. The duty is carried out.

B. The situation is changed.

C. The pleasure will increase.

D. The difficulty becomes less.

3.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A. Internet: Open to our kids too early

B. Children: Parents' technology advisors

C. Parents: Confused by new technology

D. Technology: Challenge for everyone
