Mr. Brown works in a bank, and lives on his own. His sister lives in the next town with her husband, and her son, Mark. Mr. Brown doesn´ t see his sister or her family from one year to the next, but he sends them Christmas cards, and he hasn´ t forgotten one of Mark´ s seventeen birthdays. Last week Mr. Brown had quite a surprise. He drove home from the bank at the usual time; driving neither too slowly nor too fast, he parked his car where he always parked it, out of the way of other cars, and he went inside to make his evening meal. Just then there was a knock at the door. Mr. Brown opened the door to find a policeman standing on the doorstep.
"What have I done wrong?" Mr. Brown asked himself. "Have I driven on the wrong side of the road? Has there been some trouble at the bank? Have I forgotten to pay an important bill?"
"Hello, uncle," said the policeman, "My name´ s Mark. "

The sea is very bi9.Look at a map of the world.There is less land than sea.The sea covers three quarters of the world.
The sea is very deep in some places.There is one spot,near Japan,where the sea is nearly11 kilonetres deep.The highest mountain in the world is about 9 kilometres high.If that mountain were Dut into the sea at that place,there would be 2 kilometres of water above it.
If you have swum in the sea, you know that it is salty. You can taste the salt. Rivers, which flow into the sea, carry salt from the land into the sea. Some parts of the sea are less salty than other parts. There is one sea, called the Dead Sea, which is very salty. Because it is very salty, swimmers cannot sink! Fish cannot live in the Dead Sea.
In most parts of the sea, there are plenty of fishes and plants. Some live near the top of the sea.
Others live deep down. There are also millions of tiny living things that float in the sea. These floating things are very small. It is hard to see them. Many fish live by eating them.
The sea can be very cold. Divers, who dive deep down in the sea, know this. On the top the water may be warm. When the diver goes downwards, the sea becomes colder and colder.
Another thing happens. When the diver goes deeper, the water above presses down on him. It squeezes him. Then the diver has to wear clothes made of metal.
The deeper divers goes down in the sea, .
A.
the warmer the sea becomes
B.
the colder they find the sea is
C.
the less the water above presses down

The ordinary family in colonial North America was primarily concerned with sheer physical survival and beyond that, is own economic prosperity. Thus, children were valued in terms of their productivity, and they assumed the role of producer quite early. Until they fulfilled this role, their position in the structure of the family was one of subordination ( 从属), and their psychological needs and capacities received little consideration.
As the society became more complex, the status of children in the family and in the society became more important. In the complex, technological society that the United States has become,each member must fulfill a number of personal and occupational roles and be in constant contact with a great many other members. Consequently, viewing children as potentially acceptable members of society means that they are regarded more as people in their own right than as utilitarian organisms.
This acceptance of children as equal participants in the contemporary family is reflected in the variety of statutes protecting the rights of children and in the social public welfare programs devoted exclusively to their well-being.
This new way of children and the increasing contact between the members of society has also resulted in a great interest in child-rearing techniques. People today spend a considerable portion of their time on the proper way to bring up children. It is now possible to influence the details of the socialization of another person´ s child by spreading the principle of current and fashionable theories and methods of child-rearing.
It can be inferred from the passage that formal schooling in colonial North America was .
A.
highly disciplined
B.
generally required by law
C.
improperly administered
D.
considered relatively unimportant

"Seasame Street" has been called ".the longest street in the world".
This is because the television program by that name can now be seen in so many parts of the world.
The program ,which went on the air in New York in 1969, uses songs ,jokes, and pictures to give children a basic understanding of numbers,letters and human relationships.More than 6 million children in the United States watch it regularly.The viewers (观众) include more than half the nation' s children before school age.
Many teachers consider the program a great help, though some teachers find that problems happen when the first-year pupils who have learned from "Seasame Street" are in the same class with those who have not watched the program.Tests have shown that children who watch it five times a week learn more than those who seldom watch it.In the United States the program is shown at different hours during the
week in order to increase the number of children who can watch it regularly.
Why has "Seasame Street" been so much more successful than other children's shows? Many reasons have been suggested.Perhaps one reason is that mothers watch "Seasame Street" along with their children.But the best reason for the success of the program may be that it makes every child watching it feel able to learn.The child finds himself learning, and he wants to learn more.
When the first-year pupils who have watched the program are in the same class with those who haven ' t,
A.
teaching will becomes a bit difficult
B.
they will not get on well with one another
C.

When you are little, the whole world feels like a big playground.I was living in Conyers, Georgia the summer it all happened.I was a second grader, but my best friend Stephanie was only in the first grade.Both of our parents were at work and most of the time they let us go our own way.
It was a hot afternoon and we decided to have an adventure in Stephanie' s basement.As I opened the basement door, before us lay the biggest room, full of amazing things like guns, dolls, and old clothes.I ran downstairs,and spotted a red steel can.It was paint.I looked beyond it and there lay even more paint in bright colors like purple, orange, blue and green.
"Stephanie, I just found us a project for the day.Get some paintbrushes.We are fixing to paint."She screamed with excitement as I told her of my secret plans and immediately we got to work.We gathered all the brushes we could find and moved all of our materials to my yard.There on the road in
front of my house, we painted bit stripes(条纹) of colors across the pavement(人行道).Stripe by stripe,our colors turned into a beautiful rainbow.It was fantastic!
The sun was starting to sink.I saw a car in the distance and jumped up as I recognized the car.It was my mother.I couldn' t wait to show her my masterpiece.The car pulled slowly into the driveway and from the look on my mother' s face, I could tell that I was in deep trouble.
My mother shut the car door and walked towards me.Her eyes glaring, she shouted, " What in the world were you thinking? I understood when you made castles out of leaves, and climbed the neighbors' trees, but this ! Come inside right now !" I stood there glaring back at her for a minute, angry because she had insulted(侮辱) my art.
"Now go to clean it up!" Mother and I began cleaning the road.Tears ran down my cheeks as I saw my beautiful rainbow turn into black cement.
Though years have now passed, ! still wonder where my rainbow has gone.I wonder if, maybe when I get older, I can find my rainbow and never have to brush it away.I guess we all need sort of rainbow to brighten our lives from time to time and to keep our hopes and dreams colorful.
What did the writer want to do when his mother came home?
A.
To introduce Stephanie to her.
B.
To prevent her from seeing his painting.
C.
To put the materials back in the yard.
D.
To show his artwork to her.

Student participation(参与) in the classroom is not only accepted but also expected of the student in many courses.Some professors base part of the final grade on the student' s oral participation.Although there are formal lectures during which the student has a passive role (i.e., listening and taking notes),
many courses are organized around classroom discussions, student questions, and informal lectures.In graduate discussions the professor has a "manager" role and the students make presentations and lead discussions.The students do the actual teaching in these discussions.
A professor' s teaching method is another factor (因素) that determines the degree and type of student participation.Some professors prefer to control discussion while others prefer to guide the class without controlling it.Many professors encourage students to question their ideas.Students who object to the professor' s point of view should be prepared to prove their positions.
In the teaching of science and mathematics, the controlling mode of instruction is generally traditional ,with teachers presenting formal lectures and students taking notes.However, new educational trends have turned up in the humanities and social sciences in the past twenty years.Students in education, society, and history classes, for example, are often required to solve problems in groups, design
projects, make presentations, and examine case studies.Since some college or university courses are"practical" rather than theoretical ,they pay more attention to "doing" for themselves.
The reason why some professors ask students to make presentations and lead discussions is that_______.
A.
these professors are often not well prepared before class
B.
these professors want to stress "doing"
C.
these professors want to test the students' abilities
D.
these professors are not willing to teach theory

Lisa was running late.Lisa,25, had a lot to do at work, plus visitors on the way : her parents were coming in for Thanksgiving from her hometown.But as she hurried down the subway stairs, she started to feel uncomfortably warm.By the time she got to the platform,Lisa felt weak and tired--maybe it hadn't been a good idea to give blood the night before,she thought.She rested herself against a post close to the tracks.
Several yards away,Frank,43, and his girlfriend,Jennifer, found a spot close to where the front of the train would stop.They were deep in discussion about a house they were thinking of buying.
But when he heard the scream, followed by someone yelling, " Oh, my God, she fell in!" Frank didn't hesitate.He jumped down to the tracks and ran some 40 feet toward the body lying on the rails."No!
Not you!" his girlfriend screamed after him.
She was right to be alarmed.By the time Frank reached Lisa, he could feel the tracks shaking and see the light coming.The train was about 20 seconds from the station.
It was hard to lift her.She was just out.But he managed to raise her the four feet to the platform so that bystanders could hold her by the arms and drag her away from the edge.That was where Lisa briefly regained consciousness ,felt herself being pulled along the ground,and saw someone else holding her purse.
Lisa thought she'd been robbed.A woman held her hand and a man gave his shirt to help stop the blood pouring from her head.And she tried to talk but she couldn't, and that was when she realized how much pain she was in.
Police and fire officials soon arrived, and Frank told the story to an officer.Jennifer said her boyfriend was calm on their 40-minute train ride downtown--just as he had been seconds after the rescue,which made her think about her reaction at the time. "I saw the train coming and I was thinking he was going to die," she explained.
What was the most probable cause for Lisa's weakness?
A.
She had run a long way.
B.
She felt hot in the subway.
C.
She had done a lot of work.
D.
She had donated blood the night before.

Scientists have long tried to be able to know more about floods.So far, the best that scientists can do is to recognize the conditions for flooding.
Although deep snow alone seldom causes floods, when it occurs together with heavy rain and sudden warmer weather, it can lead to serious flooding.If there is a fast snow melt (融化) on top of frozen or very wet ground, flooding is likely to occur.Melting snow also causes high water levels in rivers.
Whenever rivers are already at their highest possible levels, heavy rains will result in the rivers' flooding the nearby land.
Rivers covered in ice can also lead to flooding.When ice begins to melt, it breaks into large pieces.
These pieces of ice move and float down the river.They can block the river, causing the water to rise and flood the land up the river.If the ice dam (坝) breaks suddenly, the large quantity of water held behind it can flood the areas down the river too.
Broken ice dams are not the only problem that can cause flooding.When a large human-made dam breaks or fails to hold the water collected behind it, it will also cause serious damage.
Although scientists cannot always know when floods will occur, they do know a great deal about when floods are likely, or probably, going to occur.
What have scientists achieved in dealing with floods?
A.
They have prevented many rivers from flooding.
B.
They have reduced the damage caused by floods.
C.
They have learned much about conditions for flooding.
D.
They have found most of the ice dams on the river.

When I was at school, our teacher told the class "You are what you eat. " My friends and I would laugh and call each other "hamburger"(汉堡) and "biscuits". Our teacher was trying to show us the importance of eating the right food to stay healthy.
This was 30 years ago when there were big movements to make British people healthier. Wes tar ted to eat boiled potatoes instead of French fries and drink fat-free milk instead of whole milk. At first I felt my potatoes had no taste at all. But after a while I started to prefer healthier food because I felt stronger and I didn´t get sick so often.
So we agree that you become what you eat. Do you know what your friends eat just by looking at them ? When you know the effects of different types of food, you can use your knowledge well and eat what you want to become.
Food has been so important to our health. Everyone has their own advice to give, which they have read about or have been told by older people. However, some of these pieces of advice seem to disagree with each other. For example, some say "Eating chocolate makes you fat," while others say "Chocolate contains the important minerals (矿物质)like iron and magnesium (镁)." In fact, what we need to find out is what type of chocolate to eat and how much of it to eat.
What did the teacher mean by "You are what you eat" in Paragraph 1 ?
A.
It' s fun to be called hamburger or biscuits.
B.
Your life looks like what you eat.
C.
It' s important to eat what you like.
D.
Your health depends on what you eat.

A world like no other—perhaps this is the best way to describe the world of the rainforest. No rainforest is the same—yet most rainforests can be found in the small land area 22.5 degrees north and 22.5 degrees south of the Equator (赤道). You can find rainforests in South America and Indo-nesia. Other rainforests exist further from the Equator, in Thailand and Sri Lanka.
Rainforests have a great role to play in supporting the world. They are home to a rich variety of plants, birds and animals. Can you believe that 480 varieties of trees may be found in just one hec-tare (公顷) of rainforest? These forests have around 50% of all the plants, birds and animals on Earth.
Rainforests have their own perfect way for living. The tall trees make a huge umbrella of bran-ehes and leaves which protect themselves, smaller plants, and the forest animals from heavy rain, dry heat from the sun and strong winds. Rainforest trees grow in such a way that their leaves and branches, although close together, never actually touch those of another tree. Scientists think this isa way to prevent the spread of any tree diseases and make life more difficult for leaf-eating insects(昆虫). To live in the forest, animals must climb, jump, or fly across the branches and trees. The ground floor of the forest is not all leaves and bushes, like in films, but is actually fairly clear. It is where leaves become food for the trees and other forest life.
Rainforests around the world are disappearing at a high speed. A few thousand years ago, rain-forests covered as much as 12% of the land surface on Earth, but today this has fallen to less than5.3%. We hope that the world governments work together with scientists to use their power and knowledge to keep the rainforests for our existence.
How much of the land surface on Earth is covered by rainforests?
A.
More than 50%.
B.
Nearly 12%.
C.
Less than 5.3 %.
D.
Around 22.5 %.

When you go on your job interview (面试) , be sure to dress well, be on time, do your research and NEVER ask any of the following questions:
1. "How quickly could I be promoted (晋升)?"
An employer first of all wants an employee to be happy with the position they have. Ambition( 抱负) is good, but there is a time and place to discuss promotion, and it´ s not during an interview.
2. "Will I be able to work from home?"
This is basically telling your future boss--before you´ ve even started--that you´ re too lazy to come into the office.
3. "How much vacation time does this position offer?"
Although this could be asked, this is the type of information you should get AFTER you´ ve been offered a position and not before.
4. "Will I have to work with a team?"
Almost all jobs need some kind of teamwork, so any sign that you are not a good team player will leave you with unfavorable points in an employer´s eyes.
5. "Does this position come with a handsome pay?"
The pay is usually discussed after a position has been offered. If an employer offers this subject,feel free to discuss it. Otherwise, try not to look like you are interested only in things for your owngood. An employer will more readily hire someone interested in bettering themselves AND the company as a whole.

Maria Mitchell ( 1818 - 1889 ), the first woman astronomer ( 天文学家) in the United States,was born in Nantucket, Massachusetts. Her parents valued education and insisted on giving her thesame quality of education that boys received.
Her father, William Mitchell, was an astronomer and teacher himself. When he built his own school, Maria became a student and also a teaching assistant to him. At home, Maria´ s father taught her to watch the stars and other natural objects in space using his personal telescope (望远镜).
Later she went to work at the library of the Nantucket Atheneum. Over the next twenty years, he further developed her interest in reading as many books as she could. She spent her nights watching the sky closely with her father.
On October 1,1847,Maria discovered a comet (彗星) by merely using a two-inch telescope. Some years before, King Frederick VI of Denmark had set up prizes to each discoverer of a“telescopic comet”. The prize was to be given to the “first discoverer”of each such comet because comets were often discovered by more than one person.There was once a question of who should be the winner. As the story goes, Francesco de Vicohad discovered the same comet two days later, but had reported it to the European official rganiation first. However, after some ussion this was settled in Mitchell´ s favor. She won the
prize in 1848 and became a big name the world over. The comet was named "Miss Mitchell´s Comet".
What can be learnt about Maria´ s parents according to the text?
A.
They came from low-income families.
B.
They gave Maria equal chance for education.
C.
They were both astronomers.
