| Night after night, she came to wrap me in, even long after my childhood years. Following her longstanding custom, she'd lean down and push my long hair out of the way, then 1 my forehead. I don't remember when it first started 2 me-her hands pushing my hair that way. But it did annoy me, for they felt work-worn and rough 3 my young skin. Finally, one night, I 4 her, "Don't do that anymore -your hands are rough!" She didn't say 5 in reply. But 6 again did my mother close out my day with that familiar 7 of her love. Time after time, with the passing years, my 8 returned to that night. By then I missed my mother's hands; 9 her goodnight kiss on my forehead. Sometimes the incident seemed very 10 ,sometimes far away. But always it hid, in the back of my mind. Well, the years have passed, and I'm not a little girl anymore. Mom is in her mid seventies, and those 11 I once thought to be so rough are still doing things for me and my family. She's been our doctor, 12 a medicine box to calm a young girl's stomach. She cooks the best fried chicken in the world...gets 13 out of blue jeans that I never could wash out... Now, my own children are grown and gone. 14 , in my memory, for the thousandth time,I 15 the night when my young voice complained, "Don't do that any more-your hands are rough!" Catching Mom's hand in hand, I blurted out (冲口而出) how 16 I was for that night. I thought she'd remember, 17 I did. But Mom didn't know what I was talking about. She had forgotten-and 18 long ago. That night, I fell asleep with a new appreciation for my 19 mother and her caring hands. And the 20 that I had carried around for so long was nowhere to be found. | ||||

| It was graduation day at the university where I work and a beautiful day quite unlike the first graduation I attended as a young professor. On that cold day years ago, as we watched the students walking into the hall, one of my colleagues turned to me and said, "Graduation will be one of the happiest and one of the saddest time of your life." At my inquiry, he answered, "Because the students you have gotten to know have to leave." As years went by, my previous confusion about my colleague's words no longer existed. When I came across naughty students, I have had to rethink why I chose to be a teacher. It obviously isn't the money. Once a former computer science student of mine called me, asking me if I wanted to have a change. He was working at Nintendo Corporation. His salary was higher than my current one, though I have more education and have worked for over a decade. With my programming skills, he said he could get me hired I thanked him, but declined his kind offer. A few days before this current graduation, while working on final grades, I found a note a student had slipped in with her homework. She thanked me for being her teacher and said the things she had learned in my class-not about math, but about life-would be things she would remember long after the math skills had faded away. As I finished reading, I remembered why I had become a teacher. Now, on this sunny graduation day, as I again observed the sea of blue hats and gowns, I did so with renewed dedication (奉献) and a deeper sense of satisfaction-I will always be grateful that I am a teacher. |
| 1. How did the author feel when he heard his colleague's description of graduation for the first time? |
|
A. He quite agreed with his colleague. |
| 2. The computer science student called up the author because he ________. |
| A. wanted to inform the author of his present job B. thought the author wasn't fit to be a teacher C. wanted the author to share his joy and satisfaction D. tried to persuade the author to work with him |
| 3. What does the underlined part "blue hats and gowns" in the last paragraph refer to? |
| A. University colleagues B. Life memories. C. Graduates' clothes. D. Decorations in the hall. |
| 4. The author wrote the passage to _______. |
| A. express his devotion to being a teacher B. compare two different graduation ceremonies C. talk about the meaning of graduation D. give advice on how to be a good teacher |

| The world's biggest Internet search engine, Google, has proven once again to be king of the Web. Users can download "Google Wi-Fi" software and then enjoy free Wi-Fi service available in some US cities since last Tuesday. Wi-Fi is short for " Wireless Fidelity" (无线上网). It allows laptop computers (笔记本电脑) and personal digital assistants (PDAs,个人数字助理) to connect to the Internet at high speed by radio signal. A person with a Wi-Fi enabled computer can connect to the Internet when near one of the network's access points. The place covered by one or several access points is called a hotspot. Google has already set up two"hotspots" in the US city of San Francisco which provide a free Wi-Fi service. The Wi-Fi technology even allows users to enjoy a free Internet phone service. Some scientists argue that Wi-Fi may replace mobile phone networks. Wi Fi is still limited to a few cities, where there are"hotspots". But its capability (容量) of sending information has already done better than that of the mobile phone network, even that of 3G(Third Generation telecommunication technology). Some scientists have started to call Wi-Fi 4G. In addition to a high speed Internet connection, Wi-Fi has other advantages com pared to mobile phones. Wi-Fi is global. The same Wi-Fi system works in different countries around the world. Different from using cell phones, you don't need to change computers to use Internet phones when you go to other places and most importantly, many Internet phones cost you nothing at all. |
| 1. Wi-Fi is not available in cities without _____. |
| A. a computer B. a radio C. a hotspot D. a cell phone |
| 2. Which of the following is NOT the advantage of Wi-Fi? |
| A. The high speed Internet connection. B. Many free Internet phones. C. Using the same computers for Internet phones when you go to other places. D. Used in all the US cities |
| 3. Some scientists started to call Wi-Fi 4G, because _____. |
| A. it is the product of the Google's 4th generation B. it is more capable of sending information than the mobile phone network C. it has been used by more than four generations D. Wi-Fi will surely take the place of the mobile phone network |
| 4. Which of the following is the best title? |
| A. Third Generation Telecommunication Technology B. Free call Service C. Google Launches Free Wi-Fi Service D. Google, King of the Web |

| I'm a skeptic (怀疑论者) when it comes to the benefits of taking vitamins and other supplements. We swallow far more than any other country- yet we're not the healthiest folks by far, nor do we live the longest. There's more bad news for vitamins this week: Turns out that taking folic acid (叶酸) and vitamin B12 supplements doesn't prevent heart attacks or death, according to a major new study in the Journal of the American Medical Association. It was hoped they would, since the vitamins do reduce levels of homocysteine (高半胱氨酸), an amino acid (氨基酸) that is higher in the blood of people who have a higher risk of heart disease. In fact, homocysteine was reduced 30 percent after one year of treatment in the participants who took both vitamins. But in the following three years, just as many vitamin takers died as those who didn't take the vitamins. Even worse, the study was stopped early because another similar study suggested that there may be an increased risk of cancer from taking B vitamins. I had been taking a health-food store monster multivitamin (综合维生素剂) for months. Coincidentally, I had been experiencing some strange numbness in my legs that was starting to scare me. I remember sitting in a long meeting with my ankles crossed, and when I tried to stand up I crumpled on the floor and hit my chin on the glass coffee table because my leg had gone completely numb and worthless. As I sat there and shook my leg, I got that"pins and needles" feeling and soon was OK. But it scared me enough to make an appointment with a neurologist, who suggested an MRI to rule out stroke, or a brain tumor(肿). While I'll never know for sure if the vitamins caused my problem, many, many studies have reminded us that pill forms of vitamins and minerals don't provide the same benefit as getting them from food. There's a lot we don't know about how the human body works. Until we know more, I'm getting most of my vitamins from the farmer's market. |
| 1. What can we know from the last paragraph? |
| A. The writer is getting most of pill forms of vitamins from the markets. B. The writer continues to take vitamins in great quantities. C. The writer is getting vitamins from food, which can provide more benefits. D. The writer will never take pill forms of vitamins and minerals. |
| 2. Why do people take folic acid and vitamin B12 supplements? |
| A. They want to stop heart attacks or live longer. B. They want to live longer. C. They want to increase risk of cancer. D. They want to experience some strange numbness. |
| 3. Which of the following is not true according to the passage? |
| A. It was the multivitamin he took that caused the writer to get the "pins and needles" feeling. B. Taking more vitamins will not make a man healthier or live longer. C. The vitamins can reduce levels of homocysteine in our body. D. The less homocysteine in our blood, the less chance we'll have heart attacks. |
| 4. The best title of the passage can be ______. |
| A. Vitamins: Benefit Us a Lot B. Vitamins: No Help for Your Heart C. Vitamins: Bad for the Brain, Too D. Some Bad News About Vitamins. |

| A mouse looked through a hole in the wall to see the farmer and his wife opening a package; what food could it contain? He was astonished to discover that it was a mouse trap! Running to the farmyard, the mouse shouted, warning everyone, "There is a mouse trap in the house, there is a mouse trap in the house." The chicken, with her head high, glared at the mouse and said, "Shut up. Little Ugly. This is a great concern to you, but it has nothing to do with me:I can't be troubled by it." The mouse turned to the pig and told him."There is a mouse trap in the house." "I am so sorry, Mr Mouse," said the pig sympathetically, "but there is nothing I can do about it but pray；you are always in my prayers." The mouse turned to the cow, who said,"A mouse trap, am I in great danger, huh?" Now the mouse had to face the farmer's mouse trap alone. That very night a sound was heard through the house, like that of a mouse trap catching its prey. The farmer' wife rushed to see what was caught. In the darkness, she did not see it was a big poisonous snake whose tail the trap had caught. The snake bit the farmer's wife. The farmer rushed her to the hospital. She rerturned home with a fever. It is said that drinking fresh chicken soup will help treat fever, so the farmer took his sharp knife to the farmyard for the soup's main ingredient. His wife's sickness continued, so friends and neighbors came to sit with her around the clock. To feed them, the farmer killed the pig. The farmer's wife did not get well, in fact, she died, and so many people came for her funeral. The farmer had the cow killed to provide for all of them to eat. So next time when someone is facing a problem, don't say that it has nothing to do with you. |
