Some yeas ago, leaving the farm to work in the city, three brothers were employed by the same company and on the same pay. But three years later, they received different wages.

The three brothers were asked by the supervisor to go to the airport to get a cargo inventory at different times. Jim, who received 500 dollars a month, got the information on the phone instead of going to the airport himself. Frank, the 1,000 dollars a month brother came back with a list of more cargoes.

As she walked round the large shop, Edith realized how difficult it was to choose a suitable Christmas __1__for her father.

She __2__that he were as easy to please as her mother, who was __3__satisfied with perfume(香水). Besides, shopping at this time of the year was a most unhappy job. People stepped on your feet, pushed you with their shoulders and almost __4__ you over in their hurry in order to __5__ something cheap ahead of you.

Partly to have a rest, Edith paused in front of a counter, where some beautiful ties were on __6__. "They are __7__silk," the shop assistant told her with a smile trying to __8__her to buy one. But Edith knew from past __9__that her choice of ties hardly ever pleased her father.

She moved on slowly and then, quite by chance, stopped where a small crowd of men had gathered round a counter. She found some fine pipes(烟斗) on sale and the __10__were very beautiful. Edith did not hesitate(犹豫) for long, although her father __11__ smoked a pipe once in a while, she believed this was __12__ to please him.

When she got home, with her small but __13__present hidden in her handbag, it was time for supper and her parents were already at table. Her mother was in great __14__. "Your father has at last decided to stop smoking," she told her daughter happily. Edith was so __15__that she could not say a single word.

Some people live in the world for body while others for dignity(尊严).

I once took a walk along the street on a Saturday dusk, with a Pepsi can in my hand. An old woman in ragged clothes,   16  was living on collecting used cans, jars and tins, moved slowly towards me, with a bag on the back!  _17 (walk) nearer, she looked up at me and then fixed her eyes   18  my can. At that time, I hadn’t finished my cola, so I gave   19  several coins instead.

  20  , staring at me for a few seconds, she handed back the money. Quite confused, I asked: “Why not? Isn’t that   21   you want?”

“I am not a beggar,” she said   22  (serious), word by word.

Instantly, I felt so sorry. I ___23___ (plan) to help her, completely misunderstanding her. Thus I hurt her. What I could do at that moment was only to drink up the cola and handed her   _24__  emptied can. This time, she gave me a smile with satisfaction and gratitude in her eyes. The woman is poor in material life but is so   __25  (respect) as a great person. I am not only moved but also have learned a good lesson.

It feels like every time my mother and I start to have a conversation, it turns into an argument. We talk about something as simple as dinner plans and suddenly, my mother will push the conversation into World War 3. She’ll talk about my lack of bright future because I don’t plan to be a doctor. And much to her disappointment, I don’t want to do any job related to science, either. In fact, when I was pushed to say that I planned to major(主修) in English and communications, she nearly had a heart attack.

“Why can’t you be like my co-worker’s son?” she bemoans all the time. Her coworker’s son received a four-year scholarship and is now earning 70,000 dollars a year as an engineer. I don’t know what to answer except that I simply can’t be like Mr. Perfect as I’ve called the unnamed co-worker’s son. I can’t be like him. I am the type of the person who loved to help out in the community, write until the sun goes down, and most of all, wants to achieve a career because I love it, not because of a fame or salary.

I understand why my mother is worried about my future major. I’ve seen my mother struggle to raise me on her small salary and work long hours. She leaves the house around 6:30 am and usually comes home around 5 pm or even 6pm. However, I want her to know that by becoming a doctor, it doesn’t mean I’ll be successful. I’d rather follow my dreams and create my own future.

1.Which of the following topics do the writer and his mother often talk about?

2.We can infer from Paragraph 1 that the writer’s mother _____.

3.The underlined word “bemoans” in Paragraph 2 most probably means “________”.

4.Which of the following statements is probably TRUE about the writer?

5.We can know from the last paragraph that ____.

Some people argue that the pressures on international sportsmen and sportswomen kill the essence(本质) of sport-seeking for personal excellence. Children kick a football around for fun. When they get older and play for local school teams, they become competitive but they still enjoy playing. A single person’s representing his country cannot afford to think about enjoying himself; he has to think only about winning. He is responsible for an entire nation’s hopes, dreams and fame.

A good example is the football World Cup. Football is the world’s most important sport. It is even more important now that the United States is seriously taking it up. Winning the World Cup is perhaps the greatest of international sporting success. Mention “Argentina” to someone and the chances are that he’ll think of football. In a sense, winning the World Cup “put Argentina on the map”.

Sports fans and supporters get quite irrational(失去理性的) about the World Cup. People in England felt that their country was somehow important after they won in 1996. Last year thousands of Scots sold their cars, and even their houses and spent all their money traveling to Argentina where the finals were played.

So am I arguing that international competition kills the idea of sports? Certainly not! Do the Argentineans really believe that because eleven of their men proved that most skillful at football, their nation is in every way better than all others? Not really. But it’s known that you won, and that in one way at least your country is best.

1.What is the writer’s main purpose in the passage?

2.According to the passage, Argentina is world famous because of its ____.

3.According to the passage, if a sportsman thinks about winning, he will ____.

4.What is the writer’s attitude towards international games?

5. From this passage, we can infer that ____.

Can you understand the beginning of this article?

“My smmr hols wr CWOT. B4, we usd 2go2 NY 2C my bro, his GF & 3 kds FTF.”

The Scottish teacher who received it in class had no idea what the girl who wrote it meant. The essay was written in a form of English used in cell phone text messages. Text messages (also called SMS2) through cell phones became very popular in the late 1990s. At first, mobile phone companies thought that text messaging would be a good way to send messages to customers, but customers quickly began to use the text messaging service to send messages to each other. Teenagers in particular enjoyed using text messaging, and they began to create a new language for messages called texting.

A text message is limited to 160 characters, including letters, spaces, and numbers, so messages must be kept short. In addition, typing on the small keypad of a cell phone is difficult, so it’s common to make words shorter. In texting, a single letter or number can represent a word, like “r” for “are,” “u” for “you,” and “2” for “to.” Several letters can also represent a phrase, like “lol” for “laughing out loud.” Another characteristic of texting is the leaving out of letters in a word, like spelling “please” as “pls.”

Some parents and teachers worry that texting will make children bad spellers and bad writers. The student who wrote the essay at the top of this page said writing that way was more comfortable for her. (The essay said, “My summer holidays were a complete waste of time. Before, we used to go to New York to see my brother, his girlfriend, and their three kids face to face.”)

Not everyone agrees that texting is a bad thing. Some experts say languages always evolve, and this is just another way for English to change. Other people believe texting will disappear soon. New technology for voice messages may soon make text messages a thing of the past.

1.What is the writer’s opinion of text messaging? 

2.Which way of texting is NOT described in the passage?

3.Which of the following was most probably the title of the student’s essay?

4.Why do some people think that texting is bad?

5.Why aren’t some people worried about the effect of texting?
