I have recently felt guilty, stay sleepless at night. You may wonder how. To tell you the truth, it is just because of the fact that I seldom cheat in exams and I just can’t stop me.

Sweetest Day in America is always the third Saturday in October. This holiday is much more important in some regions than in others (Detroit, Cleveland and Buffalo being the biggest Sweetest Day cities). It is a holiday that is gaining in popularity every year throughout the country.

Sweetest Day is celebrated on the third Saturday in October as a day to make someone happy. It is an occasion which offers all of us an opportunity to remember not only the sick, aged, and orphaned, but also friends, relatives and associates whose helpfulness and kindness we have enjoyed.

Over 60 years ago, a man in Cleveland, believing that the city's orphans and shut­ins (卧病在床的人) too often felt forgotten and neglected, thought of the idea of showing them that they were remembered. He did this through the distribution of small gifts. With the help of his friends and neighbors, he distributed these small remembrances on a Saturday in October. During the years that followed, other Clevelanders began to participate in the celebration ceremony, which came to be called “Sweetest Day”. In time, the Sweetest Day idea of spreading cheer to the underprivileged was broadened to include everyone, and became an occasion for remembering others with a kind act or a small remembrance. And soon the idea spread to other cities all over the country.

Sweetest Day is not based on any single group's religious affection or on a family relationship. It is a reminder that a thoughtful word or deed enriches life and gives it meaning.

Because for many people remembering takes the form of gift­giving, Sweetest Day offers us the opportunity to show others that we care, in a practical way.

1.We can learn from the first paragraph that Sweetest Day is ________.

A.sometimes the third Saturday in October

B.hardly celebrated in Detroit

D.getting increasingly popular in the USA

2.Sweetest Day was intended to remember ________.

A.the young and disabled

B.friends and relatives

D.the sick and aged

3.We can infer from the passage that the birthplace of Sweetest Day is ________.

"Can I see my baby?" asked the happy new mother. When the baby was in her arms, she couldn't believe her eyes. The baby was born without ears.

Time proved that the baby's hearing was perfect though he had no ears. He got on well with his classmates. But one day, he said to his mother, tears in his eyes, "A big boy called me a freak (畸形物)."

The boy's father asked the family doctor,"Could nothing be done?"

"I believe I could graft (移植) on a pair of outer ears if they could be gotten," the doctor said. They tried to find a person who would be helpful to the boy.

One day, his father said to the son, "You're going to the hospital, son. Mother and I have found someone who will donate the ears you need. But we must keep it a secret who the person is."

The operation was a great success, and a new person appeared. His cleverness and hard work made him a very successful person. He married and lived a happy life. He would ask his father, "Who gave me the ears? I could do enough for him or her."

"I can't tell you," said the father. "The agreement says that you are not allowed to know…not yet."

It was kept a secret for years, but the day did come. He stood with his father over his mother's body. Slowly, the father raised the thick, brown hair.

Four out of ten parents in the UK spend between £100 and £500 on their children’s birthday parties, according to a survey. Four in ten parents of children under 18, who were questioned in a survey, admitted that they felt pressured into organizing more expensive birthday parties for their children than they would like to.

How much parents spend on their children’s birthday parties is one of the most frequently discussed topics on parenting websites. Here is one comment on Mumsnet summing up the thoughts of many parents: “Where we live everyone hires places, entertainers and so on. I don’t want to compare with my rich neighbors, but I want my son to have what all his classmates have.”

The research was carried out on behalf of the children’s charity, Lumos, set up by the author JK Rowling. Just 13 percent of parents spent £50 or less in the past year on their children’s parties.

Many children’s clowns(小丑) or entertainers charge £150 or more for an hour, and parents often feel it necessary to book a special place. Even without these, the cost of plates, the cake and party bags can mount up. Party Pieces, a company set up by Carole and Michael Middleton, charge about £16 for a birthday cake for a party with 16 guests, £22 for table decorations and up to £48 for party bags.

Many children of famous people have increasingly expensive parties, often seen in famous magazines. Suri Cruise, the daughter of actor Tom Cruise and actress Katie Holmes, enjoyed a £100,000 birthday party according to a report.

Georgette Mulheir of Lumos, said,“Parents in the UK are under increasing pressure to spend more and more money on birthday parties for their children and their children’s friends.”

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

A. Children’s birthday parties put their parents under financial pressure in the UK.

B. Many parents are willing to spend more on their children’s birthday parties.

C. Parents pay more and more attention to their children’s birthday parties.

D. Children in the UK hope for more and more expensive birthday parties.

2. What does the underlined part “mount up” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?

A. Increase. B. Change. C. Exist. D. Count.

3.By the example of the birthday party for Suri Cruise, the writer probably wants to show that________.

A. famous people love their children very much

B. children of famous people can get whatever they want

C. some children of famous people have really expensive birthday parties

D. holding expensive birthday parties is common nowadays

4.In which of the following sections would you most probably read this passage?

A. Business B. Education C. Science D. Family

 

Is it ever a good idea admitting a teenager to carry a credit card?

My kids watch closely as I swipe the card through the register. They’ve seen me do it hundreds, thousands of times. Cool. They are itching to swipe it through the machine themselves. When we walk out of the store with our groceries or pet food, or whatever, it’s almost as though money has not changed hands, painless, easy.

So it shouldn’t be shocking to discover that teenagers are becoming card carrying consumers in their own right. The question is, should they?

While some argue it’s best to teach kids how to use a credit card while still living under the family roof, not everyone agrees. Dave Ramsey, financial expert says getting credit card for your teenager is actually “an excellent way to teach him or her to be financially irresponsible.”

Now parents are required to co-sign on credit cards for children under 21. “If their name is on the credit card, then the parent may say, Hey, my name is on this. Don’t get me into trouble,” says Mary Beth Pinto, a marketing professor. “When parents were the co-obligors (共同借贷人), the children caused less debt. If the parents are the co-obligors, the tendency is that the parents were explaining how to use the cards.” Still, Pinto believes parents should start the process much earlier. “Yes, there has to be teaching going on and it has to start when they’re younger. You’re not going to get rid of credit cards. They are here to stay. You have to have them. You can’t fight progress,” Pinto said.

Ramsey, however, disagrees. “Throwing teens into a pool of (credit) sharks is a sure way to guarantee a life-time of heartache.” he said, “You can make online purchases and rent a car with a credit card. Of course, you must have money in your bank account before you can make a purchase with a credit card. But paying for things with money is what you are supposed to do.”

1.The author mentioned her experience in Para 2 mainly to _____.

A. prove the convenience of using credit cards

B. tell what impression credit cards leave on kids

C. give advice on using credit cards wisely

D. explain the pleasure credit cards bring to customers

2.The underlined word “itching” in Para 2 can be replaced by _____.

A. eager B. afraid C. embarrassed D. thankful

3.What’s Ramsey’s attitude towards teens’ using credit cards?

A. He feels it is worth a try.

B. He is very supportive.

C. He is strongly against it.

D. He considers it as a pleasant experience.

4.Pinto will most likely agree that _____.

A. parents should let teens own their credit cards earlier

B. you shouldn’t be in control of credit cards

C. it is never good for anyone to get a credit card

D. learning to use credit cards is practical
