         The history of the United States is a history of people on the move. The Native Americans came to
    North America thousands of years ago. Some of them built villages and stayed there, but many moved from
    place to place.   
         The first travelers from Europe came to live in an unknown land. At first, they stayed near the coast,
    but then a few brave men went west, far into the country. Two of them were Meriwether Lewis and William
    Clark. In 1804, they started on their long journey from St. Louis, Missouri, to the Pacific Ocean. They
    followed the Missouri River west, went across the Rocky Mountains, and followed the Columbia River to the
    Pacific. Then, they turned around, and traveled back to St. Louis.
         During the next 150 years, millions of poor people came from the old cities of Europe. They built the new
    cities of US, and farmed the land. But they did not always stay in their new cities or on their farms. Many
    people moved on, deeper and deeper into the new land. Some followed religious leaders (宗教领袖) like
    Joseph Smith. He and his followers built Salt Lake City in Utah. Others went to look for gold. After the
    California Gold Rush in 1849, San Francisco grew from a village to a city in only a few years.
         People are still moving to the US and finding new homes there. Up to one million people come into the
    US from Mexico in one year. At the same time, many more arrive from the Pacific nations and regions-from
    the Philippines, Korea, Vietnam, Taiwan and also from Central and South America. The history of the US is
    still on the move.
    1. Which of the following is NOT true about the first travelers from Europe?
    A. They came to North America thousands of years ago.
    B. They came to live in an unknown land.
    C. They stayed near the coast.
    D. A few brave men went west, far into the country.
    2. During the next 150 years, millions of poor people did not ________.
    A. come from the old cities of Europe
    B. build the new cities of the US
    C. always stay in their new cities or on their farms
    D. farm the land
    3. People from the following countries or regions except ________ are mentioned as still moving to the US.
    A. Mexico
    B. Pacific nations and regions
    C. Central America
    D. South Africa
    4. Which picture shows the journey made by Meriwether Lewis and William Clark in 1804?

         Millions of people pass through the gate of Disney's entertainment parks in California, Florida, Paris and
    Tokyo each year. What makes these places an almost universal attraction? What makes foreign kings and
    queens and other important people want to visit these Disney parks? Well, one reason is the way they are
    treated once they get there. The people at Disney go out of their way to serve their "guests", as they prefer to
    call them and to see that they enjoy themselves.
         All new employees (雇员), from vice presidents to part-time workers, begin their employment by attending
    Disney University and taking "Tradition I". Here, they learn about the company's history, how it is managed
    and why it is successful. They are shown how each department relates to the whole. All employees are shown
    how their part is important in making the whole part a success.
         After passing "Tradition I", the employees go on to more specialized training for their specific jobs. No
    detail (细节) is missed. A simple job like taking tickets requires four eight-hour days of training. When one
    ticket taker was asked why it took so much training for such a simple ordinary job, he replied, "What happens
    if someone wants to know where the restrooms are, when the parade starts or what bus to take back to the
    campgrounds? …We need to know the answers or where to get them quickly. Our constant aim is to help
    our guests enjoy party." 
         Even Disney's managers get involved (参与) in the daily management of the park. Every year, the
    managers leave their desks and business suits and put on special service clothes. For a full week, the bosses
    sell hot dogs or ice cream, take tickets or drive the monorail, and take up any of the 100 jobs that make the
    entertainment park come alive. The managers agree that this week helps them to see the company's goals more
    clearly.
         All these efforts (努力) to serve the public well have made Walt Disney Productions famous. Disney is
    considered by many as the best mass service (群体服务) provided in America or the world. As one long-time
    business observer once said,"How Disney treats people, communicates with them, rewards them, is in my
    view the very reason for his fifty years of success…I have watched, very carefully and with great respect
    and admiration, the theory and practice of selling satisfaction and serving millions of people on a daily basis,
    successfully. It is what Disney does best."
    1. The first day they come to Disney parks, all new employees ______.
    A. begin by receiving on-the-job training
    B. must learn several jobs
    C. begin as ticket takers
    D. have already attended Disney University
    2. The main aim of the Disney employees is to ______.
    A. learn all parts of the business
    B. see that their guests enjoy themselves
    C. be able to answer all kinds of questions
    D. keep their important guests happy
    3. Each year, managers wear special service clothes and work in the park to ______.
    A. set a good example for employees
    B. remind themselves of their beginning days at Disney
    C. have a better view of the company's aims
    D. replace employees on holidays
    4. Which of the following is the best title for this passage?
    A. What Makes Disney Parks Successful?
    B. Universal Attraction: Disney Parks
    C. Training is Disney
    D. How to Make Guests Happy

         Is the big city really a good place to bring up a child? Personally, I feel that it is probably the worst place
    to raise a child. To me, a child's health and safety are the most important things to consider, and a big city is
    simply too dangerous for young children.
         There is no doubt that a big city is not a healthy environment for a child to grow up in. Children in cities
    are constantly exposed (暴露于) to pollution from cars and factories. As a result, they can develop serious
    health problems which may stay with them for the rest of their lives.
         What's more, living in a big city can be dangerous for children. Since there are few parks or playgrounds,
    many children are forced to play in the streets, where they are in danger of getting hurt. There is also a lot of
    crime and violence (犯罪与暴力),which means that children's lives are at risk.
         On the other hand, there are usually much better education opportunities and leisure facilities (休闲设施)
    in a big city than in the countryside. For instance, village schools are often not well-equipped, and children may
    have to travel a long way to reach the nearest school. Similarly, a village or small town does not offer a wide
    choice of sports facilities, cinemas and so on.
         In conclusion, I believe that bringing up a child in a big city has far more against it than in its favor. The
    choice of schools and a wider variety of leisure facilities do not make up for the risks to a child's health and
    safety.
    Topic Bringing up children in a big city
    For  A big city can provide (1)______ and better and more leisure facilities.
    Against Children are constantly exposed to pollution from cars and factories,
    so they might (2)______A big city is simply too dangerous for young children.
    They (3)______ while playing in the streets. Also, children's lives are at risk
