“The first and best of victories for a man is to conquer himself; to be conquered by himself is, of all things, the most shameful,” says Plato. Self-control is at the root of all the advantages. Let a man give in to his impulses (冲动) and feelings, and from that moment he gives up his moral freedom.

A single angry word has lost many friends. When Socrates found in himself any temper or anger, he would check it by speaking low in order to control himself. If you are conscious of being angry, keep your mouth shut so that you can hold back rising anger. Many a person has dropped dead in great anger. Fits of anger bring fits of disease. “Whoever the gods would destroy, they first make them mad.” “Keep cool,” says Webster, “anger is not argument.” “Be calm in arguing,” says George Herbert, “for fierceness (狂怒) makes error a fault.”

To be angry with a weak man is to prove that you are not strong yourself. “Anger,” says Pythagoras, “begins with foolishness and ends with regret.” You must measure the strength of a man by the power of the feelings he conquers, not by the power of those which conquer him.

Self-control is man’s last and greatest victory.

If a man lacks self-control he seems to lack everything. Without it he can have no patience, no power to govern himself; he can have no self-confidence, for he will always be controlled by his strongest feeling. If he lacks self-control, the very backbone and nerve of character are lacking too.

1.What’s the main idea of the passage?

A. Self- control is important for a man.

B. We should learn to be strong.

C. A man who keeps cool won’t lose any game.

D. The great heroes in history knew how to control themselves.

2.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?

A. If you are mad, the gods will fail you.

B. If you lose your temper first, gods will fail you first.

C. If you can’t control yourself, you will be crazy.

D. If the gods want to fail you, they will make you mad first.

3.Which of the following is NOT true, according to passage?

A. The first and best of victories for a man is to conquer himself.

B. You will make a small mistake serious if you don’t keep cool.

C. You must measure a man’s strength by the power of the feelings which conquer him.

D. Anger begins with foolishness and ends with regret.

4.Which of the following can’t help you avoid anger, according to the passage?

A. Being calm in arguing.

B. Checking your temper or anger by speaking low.

C. Keeping your mouth shut.

D. Trying to make the other angry first.

Dear Jenny:

How nice to hear from you! In your letter you asked me how to keep healthy. ____________________________________________________________________________

____________________________________________________________________________

You’ve heard it repeatedly: Make sure you drink at least eight glasses of water per day. The key words are "at least", because, unless you are a child, you need more water than that. The rule is, for every 50 pounds of body weight you carry, drink one quart of bottled or filtered (过滤的) water per day. The average person weighs 150 pounds, so they should drink three quarts per day. A 200 pounds person should drink a full gallon per day. Athletes should drink even more than that. Follow these and you’ve adopted one of the most important health habits.

Our bodies are mostly water, and water is essential to our every function. Drink the appropriate amount, and everything is much more likely to function at the best levels. If you don’t drink enough water, over the short term you will experience tiredness, dry skin, headaches and constipation (便秘); over the longer term, every body function will degrade more quickly. It really is as simple as that.

Things get a bit more complicated in what type of water to drink. Bottled water and filtered water are both good options. Do not drink tap water or distilled water (蒸馏水).Bottled water should be bottled in clear glass containers, not the plastic containers that transfer far too many chemicals into the water. Filtered water can be obtained through low-cost filters.

Tap water should be avoided because it contains chlorine (氯) and may contain fluoride (氟化物), which is poisonous and can have terrible consequences for the body. Distilled water should also be avoided because it can burn up your body of necessary minerals. It has been tied to hair loss, which is often associated with certain mineral lack.

Finally, drink water at room temperature if possible, as ice-cold water can harm your stomach.

1.What’s the meaning of the underlined word “degrade”?

A. Improve. B. Reduce.

C. Strengthen D. Recover.

2.What kinds of water are proper for drinking?

A. Tap water and bottled water.

B. Tap water and distilled water.

C. Bottled water and filtered water.

D. Distilled water and filtered water.

3.What’s the main reason that distilled water isn’t recommended to drink?

A. It leads the body to lack certain minerals.

B. It isn’t clean enough to drink.

C. It contains too many chemicals.

D. It contains fluoride.

4.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?

A. It is harmful to drink plenty of icy water.

B. One may feel tired due to lack of water for a short time.

C. The water with chlorine is not suitable to drink.

D. The water in plastic containers is safe to drink.

About ten men in every hundred suffer from color blindness in some way. Women are luckier; only about one in two hundred is affected in this matter. Perhaps, after all, it is safer to be driven by a woman!

There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases a man may not be able to see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shadows of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green － a strange world indeed.

Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”. These help us to see in a bright light and to tell difference between colors. There are also millions of “rods”, but these are used for seeing when it is near dark. They show us shape but no color.

Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes prefer blue to yellow. A red light will not attract insects, but a blue lamp will. In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the aid of the cones in our eyes we can see many beautiful colors by day, and with the aid of the rods we can see shapes at night. One day we may even learn more about the invisible colors around us.

1. The passage is mainly about _____________.

A. color blindness

B. women being luckier than men

C. danger caused by color blindness

D. color and its surprising effects.

2.According to the passage, with the help of the “cones”, we can_______________.

A. tell different shapes

B. tell orange from yellow

C. kill mosquitoes

D. see in a weak light

3.Why do some people say it is safer to be driven by women?

A. Women are more careful.

B. There are fewer color-blind women

C. Women are fonder of driving than men.

D. Women are weaker but quicker in thinking.

4.Which of the statements about the color- blind is true?

A. All of them see everything in shades of green.

B. None of them can see deep red.

C. None of them can tell the difference between blue and green.

D. Not all of them have the same problem in recognizing color.

Ammie Reddick from East Kilbride, Lanarkshire, was only 18 months old when she had the accident that had scarred(留下创伤) her for life. The curious child reached up to grab the wire of a hot kettle in the family kitchen and poured boiling water over her tiny infant frame.

Her mother Ruby turned round and, seeing Ammie horribly burnt, called an ambulance which rushed her daughter to a nearby hospital. Twenty percent of Ammie’s body had been burned and all of her burns were third-degree. There, using tissue(组织) taken from unburned areas of Ammie’s body, doctors performed complex skin transplants(移植) to close her wounds and control her injuries, an operation that took about six hours. Over the next 16 years, Ammie underwent 12 more operations to repair her body.

When she started school at Maxwelton Primary at age 4, other pupils made cruel comments or simply wouldn’t play with her. “I was the only burned child in the street, the class and the school,” she recalled, “some children refused to become friends because of that.”

Today, aged 17, Ammie can only ever remember being a burned person with scars; pain is a permanent part of her body. She still has to have two further skin transplants. Yet she is a confident, outgoing teenager who offers inspiration and hope to other young burns victims.

She is a member of the Scottish Burned Children’s Club, a charity set up last year. This month, Ammie will be joining the younger children at the Graffham Water Center in Cambridge shire for the charity’s first summer camp. “I’ll show them how to get rid of unkind stares from others,” she says. Ammie loves wearing fashionable sleeveless tops, and she plans to show the youngsters at the summer camp that they can too. “I do not go to great lengths to hide my burns scars,” she says, “I gave up wondering how other people would react years ago.”

1.What did other children do when Ammie first went to school?

A．They were friendly to her.

B．They showed sympathy to her.

C．They were afraid of her.

D．They looked down upon her.

2.Ammie will teach the younger children at the Graffham Water Center to___________.

A．face others’ unkindness bravely

B．hide their scars by proper dressing

C．live a normal life

D．recover quickly

3.What does the underlined word “permanent” in the 4th paragraph mean?

A. necessary B. life-long

C. difficult D. important

4.What can be the best title of the passage?

A．A Seriously Burned Girl Survives

B．Ways to Get Rid of Unkind Stares

C．Permanent Scars And Pain For a Girl

D．A seriously burned angel of Hope

With brown curly hair and a pair of glasses, 19-year-old Nicholas Allegra from New York state, US, looks like a real-life Harry Potter. However, rather than waving a wand, Nicholas is a "wizard " at "jailbreaking ". This is probably why he ended up with an internship at Apple, a job many of his fellow Brown University students dream of.

Jailbreaking is the process of removing the limitations set by Apple on devices with the iOS operating system. These devices include the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad. It allows users to gain full access to the operating system and download additional materials that are unavailable through the official Apple App Store. However, it is estimated that Apple loses $100 million (640million yuan) from jailbreaking each year.

Nicholas, with a famous nickname "Comex", is the teenage hacker behind the jail-breaking site JailbreakMe. com. The site tells users how to unlock their iPhones using software that is not approved by Apple. The jailbreaking software he made has been downloaded millions of times by users around the world.

Then Forbes magazine suggested in an article that Apple's security team might need him as a new intern. It seems that they do. Little more than a day after Steve jobs stepped down as CEO, Apple welcomed Nicholas Allegra. Nicholas wrote on his Twitter on August 26 that " It's been really, really fun, but it's also been a while and I've been getting bored. So, the week after next I will be starting an internship with Apple.

Apple is not the only company embracing the skills of hackers. Facebook recently hired iPhone jailbreaker George "Geohot" Hotz as a full-time employee.

However, there are still hot debates about whether employing hackers is a wise solution. The word "hacker" has always had a double meaning. In the press, "hacker" means someone who breaks into computers. They steal from people's bank accounts, download sensitive information and attack legal websites. Among computer lovers, it means a cool programmer who can make a computer do whatever he wants.

Hiring a hacker does have its advantages. A talented hacker is probably quite capable of finding problems and suggesting corrections. On the other hand, because of a hacker's former behavior, many people doubt their morals .Can the company trust them with its valuable assets ? And can someone who is so used to working alone in the dark fit into a new role within a company?

One thing is for sure- Comex isn't the first member of the hacker community to land the job of his dreams. It's likely that he won't be the last.

1.What did Nicolas Allegra do before working for Apple?

A. He was a wizard.

B. He designed software for Apple.

C. He ran an Apple app store.

D. He set up JailbreakMe. com.

2.According to the article, jailbreaking _______.

A. enables iPhone users to access more functions on their phones

B. doesn't cause much financial loss to Apple

C. destroys the operating system of Apple products

D. helps promote Apple products around the world

【小题3 The underlined word "embracing" in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to

3.Some people think it unwise to hire hackers because they _______.

A. are likely to quit their job very quickly

B. are not reliable and adaptable enough

C. lack professional problem solving skills

D. are used to working at night rather than in the daytime
