Once a neighbour stole one of Washington’s horses. Washington went with a police officer to the neighbour’s farm to get the horse, but the neighbour refused to give the horse up; he claimed (声称) that it was his horse.

Washington placed both of his hands over the eyes of the horse and said to the neighbour, “If this is your horse, then you must tell us in which eyes he is blind.”

“In the right eye,” the neighbour said.

Washington took his hand from the right eye of the horse and showed the police officer that the horse was not blind in the right eye.

“Oh, I have made a mistake,” said the neighbor. “He is blind in the left eye.”

Washington then showed that the horse was not blind in the left eye, either.

“I have made another mistake,” said the neighbor.

“Yes,” said the police officer, “and you have also proved that the horse does not belong to you. You must return it to Mr. Washington.”

A. Because the neighbor was the police officer’s friend.

B. Because he wanted to make the neighbor return the horse.

Sir,
Just over six months ago, I saw an advertisement in the Morning Mail for a set of the complete works of William Shakespeare. Your company, Cosmo books Ltd., offered this set (eight books of plays and two books of poetry) at what was claimed to be a ‘remarkable’ price: fifteen pounds and fifty pence, including postage and packing. I had wanted a set of Shakespeare’s plays and poems for some time, and these books, in red imitation leather, looked particularly attractive; so I sent for them.
Two weeks later, the books arrived, together with a set of the complete works of Charles Dickens which I had not ordered. So I returned the Dickens books to you, with a cheque for fifteen pounds and fifty pence for the works of Shakespeare. Two more weeks passed. Then there arrived on my door step a second set of the works of Shakespeare, the same set of novels by Dickens and a six book set of the plays of Moliere, in French. Since I do not read French, these were of no use to me at all. However, I could not afford to post all these books back to you, so I wrote to you at the end of August of last year, instructing you to come and collect all the books that I did not want, and asking you not to send any other books until further notice.
You did not reply to that letter. Instead you sent me a bill for forty two pounds, and a set of the plays of Schiller, in German. Since then, a new set of books has arrived every two weeks, the works of Goethe, the poems of Milton, the plays of Strindberg; I hardly know what I have. The books are still all in their boxes, in the garage, and my car has to stand in the rain outside.
I have no room for any more books, and even if I read from now until the Last Judgment, I should not finish reading all the books that you have sent me.
Please send no more books, send no more bills, send no more angry letters demanding payment. Just send one large lorry and take all the books away, leaving me only with the one set of the complete works of Shakespeare for which I have paid.
Yours faithfully,
SIMON WALKER
【小题1】Simon Walker wrote the letter to ________

A.urge for the final solution to the problem with the unwanted books
B.complain about getting books he didn’t want.
C.advise readers not to order books from Cosmo Books Ltd..
D.show his anger to Cosmo Books Ltd...
【小题2】The advertisement that Mr. Walker saw in the Morning Mail was for ________
A.unlimited number of Cosmo Books.
B.fifteen pounds and fifty pence
C.a set of 10 books of the works of Shakespeare.
D.a book containing all the plays and poems of Shakespeare.
【小题3】Mr. Walker answered the advertisement because ________
A.he claimed that the books were being offered at a remarkable price
B.he wanted a set of Shakespeare’s works which was a good bargain.
C.he had ordered the set and had been waiting for them to come for some time.
D.the set he already had was not particularly attractive.

The US space agency NASA is looking for people to go to Mars, and stay there. This attractive career is for people who want a huge change of scenery and planet. The project is called the Hundred Years Starship, which aims to colonize (开拓殖民地) other lands such as the red planet Mars.
Settlers would travel to the red planet and live there forever. NASA says it would be too expensive to bring humans back to Earth. The space agency can afford, however, to send supplies to the astronaut pioneers from Earth. Astronauts would be landed on the planet's surface and would never be able to return home due to the cost.
NASA has started the project with $1.6 million, and hopes to attract investment from space-living billionaires. Google co-founder Larry Page told NASA he would be interested if the cost of a one-way ticket can go down from $10 billion to $2 billion.
The journey to Mars could take 4 months. Setting on the red planet would be extremely dangerous, especially given the freezing temperatures there. The thin atmosphere would be another problem as it is mostly carbon dioxide, so oxygen supplies are a must. A director in NASA said that he believed the trip might start with visiting Mars's moons first. He claimed that humans could be on Mars's moons by 2030.
Many scientists think colonizing space is absolutely necessary. Steven Hawking believes we must move to other planets to survive as a species. He said: “Once we spread out into space and establish independent colonies, our future should be safe.” Scientists Dirk' Schulze-Makuch and Paul Davies also call it a “desirable goal”, though there surely are huge risks to explore new lands.
【小题1】Which of the following is TRUE about the Hundred Years Starship?

A.It has cost NASA around $10 billion.
B.It is expected to be conducted on Mars in 2030.
C.It aims to explore new lands in the universe.
D.It is a project first raise by Steven Hawking.
【小题2】We can infer from the passage that Google co-founder Larry Page _______.
A.used to be an astronautB.is no longer rich now
C.is a fan of space travelD.is a generous man
【小题3】What would be the best title for the passage?
A.One-way trip to Mars
B.Mars's another moon is found.
C.Human landing on Mars.
D.NASA's first cooperation with Google.
