Many people have discovered that hobbies can be profitable as well as fun. Some people have such fine collections of bottles, flags, buttons or shells that others are willing to pay to see them or they offer to buy their collections for large sums of money. Some of the best collections are owned by people who started their hobbies as young boys or girls. Some of the things that American children like to collect are stamps and dolls. Older people also save stamps, but they collect coins and things made of glass more often than dolls. Painting, writing and taking photographs are the best examples of hobbies that may become occupations. Every writer, artist and photographer probably started as a hobbyist before becoming a professional. Other hobbies that could be profitable include cooking, sewing and making things out of wood. Many doctors believe that hobbies help to make our lives more enjoyable. They believe that people who raise fish or collect recorders are too busy to spend their time worrying. Doctors also think that an active person, such as a baseball player, should have a restful hobby such as reading, while a person who sits at a desk all day should have lively hobbies such as tennis, golf or swimming. Most people in the United States agree with the doctor. It is difficult to find an American who does not have a favorite hobby. |

Around the world more and more people are taking part in dangerous sports and activities. Of course, there have always been people who have looked for adventure-those who have climbed the highest mountains, explored unknown parts of the world or sailed in small boats across the greatest oceans. Now, however, there are people who seek an immediate excitement from a risky activity which may only last a few minutes or even seconds. I would consider bungee jumping to be a good example of such an activity. You jump from a high place (perhaps a bridge or a hot-air balloon)200 meters above the ground with an elastic (有弹性的) rope tied to your ankles. You fall at up to l50 kilometers an hour until the rope stops you from hitting the ground. It is estimated that two million people around the world have now tried bungee jumping. Other activities which most people would say are as risky as bungee jumping include jumping from tall buildings and diving into the sea from the top of high cliffs. Why do people take part in such activities as these?Some psychologists suggest that it is because life in modern societies has become safe and boring. Not very long ago, people's lives were constantly under threat. They had to go out and hunt for food, diseases could not easily be cured,and life was a continuous battle for survival. Nowadays, according to many people, life offers little excitement. They live and work in comparatively safe environment; they buy food in shops; and there are doctors and hospitals to look after them if they become ill. The answer for some of these people is to seek danger in activities such as bungee jumping. |
1. More and more people today ______. |
[ ] |
A. are close to death in sports B. are climbing the highest mountains C. are trying activities such as bungee jumping D. are looking for adventures such as exploring unknown places |
2. In bungee jumping, you ______. |
[ ] |
A. jump as high as you can B. slide down a rope to the ground C. fall towards the ground without a rope D. attach yourself to a rope and fall to the ground |
3. People probably take part in dangerous sports nowadays because ______. |
[ ] |
A. they lack excitement B. they have a lot of free time C. they no longer need to hunt for food D. they can go to hospital if they are injured |
4. Which of the following is the best title for this text? |
[ ] |
A. The Need for Excitement B. The Boredom of Modern Life C. Dangerous Sports: What and Why D. Is Bungee Jumping Really Dangerous |

How would you like an easy way to earn $2,500? All you have to do is to sit around and wait for your meals. There's a catch, however. You have to stay in a chicken cage with a stranger for a whole week. There are no books or television or radio for amusement. You can't leave until the week is up. And a camera will be recording your every move. Two people actually took the job. The idea came from Rob Thompson, a video artist. He wanted to make a film about the way animals are treated. His goal was to raise people's awareness of the living conditions of animals that are raised for food. He decided to pay $5,000 out of his own savings to two people who were willing to live like chickens for a week. To Rob's surprise, quite a few people answered his advertisement. He had interviews and selected Eric, a 24-year-old restaurant worker, and Pam, a 27-year-old chemist. The plan was for them to spend seven days together in a chicken cage that was six feet long and three feet wide. A camera would record their experience, which would take place in an art museum. The week was long and difficult. They slept on a hard wooden floor. They couldn't stand up without banging their heads. They ate vegetables and drink water from a garden hose-pipe (橡胶软管). Their only privacy was a toilet surrounded by a curtain. There were no sinks, mirrors, or toothbrushes in the cage. Their only inspiration was the two framed checks that hung on the wall outside the cage. Visitors who came here were warned, "Do not feed the humans." Finally it was over, and Pam and Eric came out of the cage. They had survived the week, and they each had a $2,500 check in their hands. When Rob Thompson opened the cage, Eric came out, changed into clean clothes, and ate a chocolate bar right away. "It's great for me to be able to stand up." he said. Pam just changed her clothes and left. After a week of visitors and reporters watching her, she didn't want to talk to anyone. |
1. What kind of person is Rob Thompson? |
[ ] |
A. He is curious about people's personal life B. He is kind-hearted to animals C. He dislike people around D. He likes to help poor people |
2. The underlined word "catch" (in Paragraph 1) probably means ______. |
[ ] |
A. unsolved problem B. surprising wonder C. unbelievable condition D. hidden difficulty |
3. What made it the most difficult for the two to stay in the cage? |
[ ] |
A. That they had nothing for amusement. B. That they couldn't lie down to sleep in the cage. C. That they had to do almost everything under others' very eyes. D. That they didn't have meat to eat. |
4. What would be the best title for this passage? |
[ ] |
A. An Easy Way to Earn $2,500 B. Do Not Feed Humans C. Living Like a Chicken D. Getting Along Well Anyway |

Friends play an important part in our lives, and although we may take friendship for granted, we often don't clearly understand how we make friends. While we get on well with a number of people, 1______. Moreover, a great many relationships come under the general term "friendship". In all cases, two people like one another and enjoy being together, but beyond that, the degree of closeness between them and the reasons for their interest in each other change greatly. At the beginning, much depends on how people meet, and on good first impressions. As we get to know people, 2______. Although these factors are not of the greatest importance, it is more difficult to have a good relationship with people when there is a big difference in age and background. Then, 3______. Friends will stand closer together and will spend more time looking at each other than ordinary friends. Smiles and soft voices also express friendliness, and it is because they may give the wrong signals that shy people often have difficulty making friends. A friendly look with a wrong facial expression can turn into an unfriendly stare, and nervousness may be wrongly understood as unfriendliness. Some friendly relationships are a result of argument and discussion, but it is usual for close friends to have the same ideas and beliefs, the same opinion and interests. The more closely involved people become, the more they depend on each other. And 4______. Equally, friends have to learn to make allowances for each other, to put up with annoying habits, and to accept differences in opinion. In contrast with marriage, 5______. But the support and understanding that results from shared experiences and affections does seem to create a close and lasting relationship. |
