              New rules and behavior standards (行为规范) for middle school students came out in March. Middle
    school is going to use a new way to decide who the top students are. The best students won't only have high
    marks. They will also be kids who don't dye (染) their hair, smoke or drink. The following are some of the new
    rules.           
             Tell the truth. Have you ever copied someone else's work on an exam? Don't do it again! That is not
    something an honest student should do. If you have played computer games for two hours in your room, don't
    tell your parents you have done homework.
             Do more at school. Good students love animals and care for other people. April is Bird-Loving Month in
    our country. Is your school doing anything to celebrate? You should join! That way, you can learn more about
    animals and how to protect them. When more people work together, it makes it more fun for everyone. Have
    you ever quarreled with your teammates when your basketball team lost? Only working together can make your
    team stronger. Be friendly to the people around you. Try to think of others, not only yourself.
             Be open to new ideas. Have you ever thought that people could live on the moon? Perhaps you'll discover
     Earth Ⅱsomeday. Don't look down on new ideas. Everyone's ideas are important. You should welcome them,
    because new ideas make lire better for everyone.
              Protect yourself. Has someone ever taken money from one of your classmates? Don't let it happen to
    you. If you have to go home late, you should let your parents know. 
              Use the Internet carefully. The Internet can be very useful for your studies. But some things on the
    Internet aren't for kids, so try to look at Web pages that are good for you. You can use the Web for fun or
    homework. Can't you find any good Web sites for children? Here are some:
    http:∥kids.eastday.corn       http:∥www.chinakids.net.cn       http:∥www.cycnet.corn

              A Nobel Prize is considered by most people one of the highest international honours a person can receive.
    As you know, the prizes were started by a Swede called Alfred Nobel. He was born in Stockholm, the capital of
    Sweden. Alfred Nobel was a great scientist. He made two important inventions, and so he became very rich.
    Although he was rich, Nobel was not a happy man. He never married or had children. Also, he was a sick man
    during his large part of life. When he died at the age of 63, he left a fund of $9,000,000. The money was to be
    used in giving prizes to those who made great achievements in physics,chemistry (化学), medicine and literature
    (文学), and for world peace. 
              The first Nobel Prizes were given on December 10,1901, five years after Nobel's death. Since then many
    famous people from all over the world have been given Nobel Prizes for their achievements. 
              Each prize has three parts. The first part is a gold medal. Second, a winner of a Nobel Prize is given a
    diploma saying that he has been given the prize. The third part of the prize is a large amount of money about
    $40,000. 
              Often a prize is given to just one person,but not always. Sometimes a prize is shared. It may be given to
    two or more people who have worked together. It is also sometimes true that a prize is not given at all if there
    is no great achievement. In 1972, for example, no Nobel Peace Prize was given.
    1. When was Alfred Nobel born?
    [     ]
    A.In 1938.
    B.In 1833.
    C.In 1896.
    D.In 1906.
    2. What kind of person would you say Alfred Nobel was?
    [     ]
    A.He was a rich.happy and lucky man.
    B.He was a poor,unhappy and unlucky man.
    C.He was a poor,but happy and lucky man.
    D.He was a rich,but unhappy and unlucky man.
    3. The underlined word "diploma" in the passage most probably means__________.
    [     ]
    A.certificate
    B.letter
    C.ticket
    D.card
    4. How many persons is a Nobel Prize given to?

    D.Not always one person.

              Look! There are thousands of people waiting to buy tickets home in the railway station. Each time when
    Spring Festival comes, buying tickets of train trip would be very hard. And things seem to be getting worse and
    worse, although we have greatly increased the mileage of railway network and speeded up trains. Why? It's
    because too many people want to go back home to spend Spring Festival with their family. Many people become
    angry with the Ministry (部) of Railways. They wonder why it is hopeless for them to get the tickets from the
    railway station. Instead, they sometimes can only buy them from ticket scalpers at much higher price.
              The Ministry of Railways estimated (估计) that about 188 million passengers would travel by train during
    the 40-day peak period surrounding the 2009 Spring Festival holiday. The number of travelers will be 8% higher
    than that of 2008. This problem even drew the President Hu Jintao's attention. He wrote a note to Liu Zhijun,
    Minister of the Ministry of Railways, asking him to ensure a "smooth and safe" transportation and brainstorm
    (集思广益) for measures (对策) to improve passenger convenience and make them all public. Afterward,
    officials from the Ministry of Railways said they would try their best not to let any ticket-buyers spend Spring
    Festival at the railway station.
    1. What does the underlined word "scalper" in the first paragraph mean?
    [     ]
    A.代售点
    B.商贩
    C.票贩
    D.赌徒
    2. Many people can't buy the tickets from the railway station,and they sometimes can only buy them from the
        scalpers_________ .
    [     ]
    A.expensively
    B.fortunately
    C.dangerously
    D.hardly
    3. How many people took the train trip during the peak period surrounding the 2008 Spring Festival holiday?
    [     ]
    A.About 203 million.
    B.About 188 million.
    C.About 180 million.
    D.About 174 million.
    4. What does the passage mainly tell us?
    [     ]
    A.People go home much more easily during the Spring Festival.
    B.It is very hard to buy tickets in the railway station during the Spring Festival.
    C.President Hu Jintao cares about the railway building problem.
    D.The Ministry of Railways felt sorry about the problem.

              Fifteen people were killed and 20 injured,three of them seriously, in a blaze (fire)set off by fireworks
    inside a bar called Latin Bar in southeast China. The accident happened on the evening of January 31 in the city
    of Changle, Fujian Province, when a group celebrating a birthday set off fireworks at their table inside the bar.
    The firecrackers made the electric line burning, and the lines burnt the things in the bar. These things decorated
    the bar and gave off some terrible gas that made people die when they breathed much. After they were sent to
    the hospital, two men died later. Among them the youngest was only 17 years old. It happened just after the
    Spring Festival. 
              A lot of parents were waiting in the hospital. Some of them were so sad that they cried for a long time.
    A woman in a red coat, one of her shoes was lost on the ground cried so hard that she couldn't say anything.
    She was the mother of the youngest dead child. A young man told the reporter that he was one of the workers
    who once worked in the bar and just left the bar before Spring Festival. He felt very frightened. His five other
    workmates were also dead. He told people that there were many people in the bar and the bar used some bad
    materials to decorate. So once there is a fire, these bad things will give off poisonous (harmful) gas which can
    make people die in a short time. 
               "Why did this kind of thing happen again and again in our country?" people asked the leaders of the
    police. We hope this accident will not happen any more.
    1. Why was there a big fire during the birthday party?
    [     ]
    A.Because some people lit cigarettes.
    B.Because some people smoked.
    C.Because some people lit candles.
    D.Because some people lit some firecrackers.
    2. Why did a lot of people die during this big fire?

    A.They breathed much terrible gas.
    B.They fell down and knocked into the fire.
    C.They jumped down from the tall building.
    D.They ate a lot of terrible food.
    3. What is the main reason which made so many people die?
    [     ]
    A.The firefighters came late.
    B.It happened at night.
    C.The wind was too strong.
