A thief who dropped a winning lottery ticket at the scene of his crime has been given a lesson in honesty．His victim, who picked up the ticket,  then claimed the ￡25000 prize, managed to trace him, and handed over the cash．The robbery happened when maths professor Vinicio Sabhatucci, 58, was changing a type on an Italian motorway．Another motorist, who stopped "to help", stole a suitcase from his car and drove off．The professor found the dropped ticket and put it in his pocket before driving home to Ascoli in eastern Italy.

     Next day, he saw the lottery results on TV and, taking out the ticket, realized it was a  winner．He claimed the 60 million lire prize．Then he began a battle with his conscience．Finally, he decided he could not keep the money despite having been robbed．He advertised in newspapers and on radio, saying, "I'm trying to find the man who robbed me．I have 60 million lire for him--a lottery win．Please meet me．Anonymity guaranteed."

Professor Sabbatucci received hundreds of calls from people hoping to trick him into handing them the cash．But there was one voice he recognized--and he arranged to meet the man in a park．The robber, a 35-year-old unemployed father of two, gave back the suitcase and burst into tears．He could not behave what was happening．"Why didn't you keep the money?" he asked．The professor replied, "I couldn't, because it's not mine." Then he walked off, spurning the thief's offer of a reward.

     D．he came to realize that honesty is more important than money

2．Hundreds of people phoned professor Sabhatucci because they         .

     A．wanted to make fun of him                 B．hoped to get the money

     C．knew who the robber was                 D．lost the lottery ticket

3．The underlined word "spurning” in the last sentence can be replaced by         .

    A．accepting        B．claiming          C．rejecting             D．canceling

4．If the story appears in a newspaper, the best title might be          .

The meal you eat after exercising matters! No matter what time of day you exercise, the key is to follow the exercise up with meals that supply enough nutrition．For the best results, eat within thirty to sixty minutes after exercising, when the muscles are at the best time to take in nutrients.

     Here are some ideas for meals after exercising. Home-made sports-recovery drink

     Mix banana, milk, and yogurt to make a fresh and satisfying sports-recovery drink．Dairy products like milk and yogurt work double duty, providing both protein and carbohydrates （碳水化合物）．A cup of coffee, on the other hand, is a poor choice．

Protein-packed sandwich

You can't go wrong with a sandwich after exercising－it's got everything in a hand-held package．Sandwiches provide the salt you need to replace what you have lost by sweating, while the tomatoes in them supply plenty of Vitamin C．Try using whole-wheat bread to give yourself more fiber．The cheese and fresh vegetables in sandwiches are also great for helping tired muscles recover.

Power breakfast

     An egg sandwich is a perfect post-exercise breakfast．There's protein in both the yolk （蛋黄） and the white of the egg．This recipe increases your protein intake while keeping calories and fat under control．Eggs also contain zinc （锌）, which helps protect against disease．

Plant-based protein

     Beans are an amazing source of plant-based protein and carbohydrates．Make a large bowl of bean salad in the beginning of a week, and you'll have a great post-exercise meal that's ready whenever you need it

1．Why does the author advise eating a protein-packed sandwich after exercising?

       A．It helps increase the protein in your body.

       A．Eat cheese and fresh vegetables.

     B．Drink as much milk and yogurt as possible.

    C．Eat whole-wheat bread instead of a sandwich.

    D．Eat and drink as soon as possible.

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

    A．It's the best time for muscles to take in nutrients within 30 to 60 minutes after exercising.

Handshaking, though a European practice, is now often seen in big cities of China．Nobody knows exactly when the practice started in Europe．It is said that long long ago in Europe when people met, they showed their unarmed （无武器的） hands to each other as a sign of goodwill．As time went on and trade in cities grew rapidly, people in cities began to clap each other's hands to make a deal or to reach an agreement．This practice wax later changed into shaking hands among friends on meeting or leaving each other．"Let's shake （hands） on it' sometimes means agreement reached.

     Do the Europeans shake hands wherever they go and with whomever they meet? No．Some-times the Chinese abroad reach out their hands too often to be polite, it is really very impolite to give your hand when the other party, especially when it is a woman, shows little interest in shaking hands with you and when the meeting does not mean anything to him or her．Even if', for politeness, lie holds out his unwilling hand in answer to your uninvited hand, just touch it slightly．There is generally a misunderstanding （误解） among the Chinese that westerners are usually open and straightforward, while the Chinese are rather reserved （保守的） in manner．But in fact some people in western countries are more reserved than some Chinese today． So it is a good idea to shake hands with a westerner only when he shows interest in further relations with you.

     A．to make a deal                           B．to greet each other

     B．Westerners are unwilling to shake hands.

     D．We shouldn't shake hands with European women.

4．The main purpose of the text is

     D．to give us some advice before we travel abroad

A proven method for effective textbook reading is the SQ3R method developed by Francis Robinson．The first is to survey （the S step） the chapter by reading the title, introduction, section headings, summary., and by studying any graphs, tables, illustrations or charts．The purpose of this step is to get an overview of the chapter so that you will know before you read what it will be about． In the second step （the Q step）, for each section you ask yourself questions such as "What do I already know about this topic?" and "What do I want to know?" In this step you also take the section heading and turn it into a question．This step gives you a purpose for reading the section．The third step （the first of the 3 R's） is to read to find the answers to your questions．Then at the end of each section, before going on to the next section, you recite （ the second of the 3 R's） the answers to the questions that formed in the question step．When you recite you should say the information you want to learn out loud in your own words．The fifth step is done after you have completed step 2, 3 and 4 for each section．You review （the last of the 3 R's） the entire chapter．The review is done much as the survey was in the first step．As you review, hold a mental conversation with yourself as you recite the information you selected as important to learn．The mental conversation could take the form of asking and answering the questions formed the headings or reading the summary, which lists the main ideas in the chapter, and trying to fill in the details for each main idea.

1．The passage implies that the SQ3R method           .

     A．needs to be prove                    B．leaves much to be desired

     C．turns out to be practicable              D．cannot be used by every reader

2．The SQ3R method consists of steps           .

     A．three             B．four              C．five               D．seven

3．According to the passage, the first step helps the readers           .

     A．read the first several paragraphs        B．scan the whole chapter

     C．study the graphs                     D．get the theme of chapter

4．Which of the following statements is true?

     A．In the last step, you should remember all the information.

     B．When you finish the last step, you will get both the main idea and the details.

     C．The mental conversation involves answering the questions asked by the author.

     D．While you are holding a mental conversation you select the important information.
