One day, a physically-deformed man came to our school and on his back was a notice saying “Free shoe repairing for college students.”
Repairing shoes free? Most of us didn't believe it, and some even thought that it was just device (詭計(jì)) to the students who would have to pay for the shoes once they had been repaired, but the man just smiled and said, “Save your money and buy some books.” These words really surprised me and I talked with him, “You need to make a living; why do you still repair shoes for us for free?” He answered, while keeping on working, “I am an illiterate (文盲) , but it is my pleasure to serve you. In my opinion, money isn't everything in life.”
He stopped for a moment and said, “I look down on those people who always cry. For example, when they themselves push their bodies into a bus, it is very common for people to help each other. But in recent years, people always look at me with an eye of surprise and say, 'Please wait for the next one.' I have to wait for the next... so I am with a wheelchair now!”
After the chat, I felt he was great compared with me. He ---a physically-deformed man who couldn't walk without a wheelchair, still tried his best to devote himself to society. I would like to thank this man, because he gave me a new direction in my life, and taught me how to know the true value of life.
(1) Why didn't most of the students believe that man at first?
[ ]
A.Because they didn't know the man at all.
B.Because they didn't need to repair their shoes.
C.Because they thought that the man would deceive.
D.Because they thought it was impossible that man could repair shoes for them free.
(2) Why did he repair shoes for free? Because he thought ________.
[ ]
A.the students needed some help
B.these shoes didn't need to be repaired at all
C.the students were all his friends
D.the students were very poor
(3) What should you do when you meet an old lady at a bus stop? I will ________.
[ ]
A.let her wait for the next one
B.get on the bus by myself
C.help her get on the bus
D.get on the bus first
(4) What's the meaning of “a physically-deformed man”?
[ ]
(5) What did the writer understand from that man?
[ ]
A.He understood that man was a kind-hearted man.
B.He understood money was not everything in life.
C.He understood people should try their best to help others.
D.Both B and C

It took George quite a while to find a parking place (停車場(chǎng)) for his car and in the end he had to leave it in a narrow street, short way from the dentist's (牙科診所).

She told them that the black umbrella she had bought for her mother was gone, and that she had to get out at the next station. After the three other passengers heard it, they asked her for her mother's address so that they could send the umbrella to her if someone had taken it by mistake, and brought it back after Sally had got out of the train.

Most people want to work, but it has become more difficult in today's world to find work for everybody. The economies (經(jīng)濟(jì)) of the world need to grow by 4% each year just to keep the old number of jobs for people. Often this is not possible, and so more people are out of work(失業(yè)).

What do Napoleon, Clinton and Wang Nan have in common? They are all left-handed. Today about 15% of the number of people are left-handed. But why are people left-handed? The answer is the way the brain works.
The brain has two halves-the right half and the left half. The right half controls the left side of the body, and the left controls the right side of the body. So right-handed people have strong left brain, and left-handed people have a strong right brain. The two halves of the brain are about the same size. But each side controls different things. The left side controls language, maths and logic(邏輯). When you remember new words, or when you put things in order, you use your left side. The right side of the brain controls your love of art, colour and music. It is also good at recognizing faces. This does not mean that all artists are left-handed and all accountants (會(huì)計(jì))are right-handed. Some right-handers have a strong right brain, and some left-handers have a strong left brain.
(1) The phrase “in common” in the first sentence means ________ .

Australia is nearly as large as the United States, hut most of it is too dry for people to live in. Around this dry part are large sheep and cow farms. A few of them are as large as the smallest states in America. Often the nearest neighbors are several hundred kilometers away.
The two-way radio is very important to people who live on these great Australian farms. It works much like a telephone. A person can listen to someone else talk and then give an answer. For example, people on the large farms could talk to a doctor far away. They could tell the doctor about someone who was ill, and the doctor could let them know how to look after the sick person. As the large farms were so far from towns, the children could not go to school. Radio schools were started for them in some places. At a certain (某一) time each day, boys and girls turn on their radios and listen to teachers in cities far away.
Families on the large farms wanted to give news to their neighbors. The programme “Round Robin” talks by radio were started to keep families in touch with each other. They could talk about who was going away and who was ill. The men could talk about their sheep and cows and how much money the markets could pay for them. In many ways the radio became a newspaper for the farm people of Australia.

When a group of children politely stop a conversation with you, saying:“We have to go to work now,” you're left feeling surprised and certainly uneasy. After all, this is the 1990s and the idea of children working is just unthinkable. That is, until you are told that they are all pupils of stage schools and that the work“they go off” is to go on the stage in a theater.
Stage schools often act as agencies (代理機(jī)構(gòu)) to supply children for stage and television work. More worthy of the name “stage school” are those few places where children attend full time, with training for the theatre and a general education.
A visit to such schools will leave you in no doubt that the children enjoy themselves. After all, what lively children wouldn't settle for spending only half the day doing ordinary school work, and acting, singing or dancing their way through the other half of the day?
Then of course there is time for the children to make a name and make a little money in some big shows. Some stage schools give their children too much professional work at such a young age. But the law is very tight on the amount they can do. Those under 13 are limited to 40 days in the year and those over 13 to 40 days.
The schools themselves admit that not all children will be successful in the profession for which they are being trained. So what happens to those who don't make it? While all the leading schools say they place great importance on children getting good study results, the facts seem to suggest this is not always the case.
(1) People would stop feeling uneasy when realizing that the children they're talking to ________ .
[ ]
A. attend stage school
B. are going to the theatre
C. have got some work to do
D. love singing and dancing
(2) In the writer's opinion, a good stage school should ________ .
[ ]
A. produce star performers
B. help pupils improve their study skills
C. train pupils in language and performing arts
D. provide a general education and training
(3)“Professional work” used in the text means ________ .
[ ]
A. ordinary school work
B. money-making performances
C. stage training at school
D. acting, singing, or dancing after class
(4) Which of the following best describes how the writer feels about stage schools?
[ ]
A. He thinks highly of that they have to offer.
B. He favors an early start in the training of performing arts.
C. He feels uncomfortable about children putting on night shows.
D. He doubts the standard of ordinary education they have reached.
(5) The word “unthinkable” in the first paragraph means: ________ .

The world is not only hungry, but it is also thirsty for water. This may seem strange to you, since nearly 70% of the earth's surface is covered with water. But about 97% of that is sea water, or salt water. Man can only drink and use the other 3% the fresh water from rivers, lakes, underground, and other sources. And we can not even use all of that. Even worse, some of it has been made dirty.
However, as things stand today, this fresh water is still enough for us. But our need of water is becoming larger and larger quickly-almost day by day. We should take steps to do with this problem now and in this way we can get away from a serious world-wide water shortage later on. We all have to learn how to stop wasting our valuable water. One of the first steps is to develop ways of reusing it. Today in most large cities, water is used only once and then sent out into sewer system(下水道). From there it returns to sea or runs into underground places. But even if every large city reused its water, we still would not have enough. All we'd have to do to make use of sea water in the world is to remove the salt. If we take these steps we'll be in no longer danger or drying up.
(1) The world is thirsty for water because ________.
[ ]
A. man hasn't got enough food to eat
B. we haven't got enough fresh water
C. only 70% of the earth's surface is water
D. more water is sent into sewer systems
(2)The underlined word valuable means ________.
[ ]
(3) What should we do if we want to have enough fresh water?
(a) Make full use of water.
(b) Carry salty water into lakes or rivers.
(c) Try to save the fresh water as much as possible.
(d) Do our best to use the water again.
(e) Drink and use all the water on the earth's surface.
[ ]
(4) The best but the most difficult way to solve the water problem of the world is to ________.
[ ]
A. remove the salt from the water
B. make the water in cities clean
C. take water from underground
D. make the need for water smaller
(5) What's the best title for this passage?
