| I can still remember when I met my best friend. She had just moved into the neighborhood and her grandmother brought her down to 1 me. I hid behind my mother and she hid behind her grandmother, 2 to look at each other. Soon we lost the 3 and started playing with each other. In the 7th grade, I first lost touch with her. She was 4 family problems and I deserted her to be with the 5 people. None of my new friends liked her as much as I did because they knew she had 6 . However, every summer we 7 always sit at each other's house, watch soap operas, and talk about all the boys we liked. It was last year when I noticed the problem. I guess I was 8 devoted in high school to 9 she needed someone there. Anyway, she made a new best friend and so did I. Then I didn't know why, 10 she started cutting herself! She then was diagnosed(诊断)with clinical depression. At first, I was very 11 , but we still stayed in 12 I wanted to be there with her since her new best friend basically 13 her and people were calling her 14 . Yesterday she came to me and said, "I never knew what a best friend was 15 you, the only person, would stop me cutting. I 16 your help so much, and you didn't even know you were 17 me." We both cried. And I guess a kind of 18 from my life so far is never to give up on your friends. Even if they aren't as cool as others, or people think they are crazy, they need 19 there. If you desert them, you will only be 20 yourself. | ||||

| The Cost of Higher Education Individuals(个人)should pay for their higher education. A university education is of huge and direct benefit to the individual.Graduates earn more than nongraduates.Meanwhile, social mobility is ever more dependent on having a degree.However, only some people have it.So the individual, not the taxpayers, should pay for it.There are pressing calls on the resources(资源)of the government.Using taxpayers' money to help a small number of people to earn high incomes in the future is not one of them. Full government funding(资助)is not very good for universities.Adam Smith worked in a Scottish university whose teachers lived off student fees.He knew and looked down upon 18thcentury Oxford, where the academics lived comfortably off the income received from the government.Guaranteed salaries, Smith argued, were the enemy of hard work；and when the academics were lazy and incompetent, the students were similarly lazy. If students have to pay for their education, they not only work harder, but also demand more from their teachers.And their teachers have to keep them satisfied.If that means taking teaching seriously, and giving less time to their own research interests, that is surely something to celebrate. Many people believe that higher education should be free because it is good for the economy(经济). Man y graduates clearly do contribute to national wealth, but so do all the businesses that invest(投资) and create jobs.If you believe that the government should pay for higher education because graduates are economically productive, you should also believe that the government should pay part of business costs. Anyone promising to create jobs should receive a gift of capital from the government to invest. Therefore, it is the individual, not the government, who should pay for their university education. 1. The underlined word"them"in Paragraph 2 refers to ________. A. taxpayers B. pressing calls C. college graduates D. government resources 2. The author thinks that with full government funding ________. A. teaching are less satisfied B. students are more demanding C. students will become more competent D. teachers will spend less time on teaching 3. The author mentions businesses in Paragraph 5 in order to ________. A. argue against free university education B. call on them to finance students' studies C. encourage graduates to go into business D. show their contribution to higher education |

| My family and I lived across the street from Southway park since I was four years old.Then just last year the city put a chain link fence around the park and started bulldozing(用推土机推平)the trees and grass to make way for a new apartment complex.When I saw the fence and bulldozers, I asked myself, "Why don't they just leave it alone?" Looking back, I think what sentenced the park to oblivion(被遗忘)was the drought(旱灾)we had about four years ago.Up until then, Southway Park was a nice green park with plenty of trees and a public swimming pool.My friends and I rollerskated on the sidewalks, climbed the trees, and swam in the pool all the years I was growing up.The park was almost like my own yard.Then the summer I was fifteen the drought came and things changed. There had been almost no rain at all that year.The city stopped watering the park grass.Within a few weeks I found myself living across the street from a huge brown desert.Leaves fell off the park trees, and pretty soon the trees started dying, too.Next, the park swimming pool was closed.The city cut down on the work force that kept the park, and pretty soon it just got too ugly and dirty to enjoy anymore. As the drought lasted into the fall, the park got worse every month.The rubbish piled up or blew across the brown grass.Soon the only people in the park were beggars and other people down on their luck.People said drugs were being sold or traded there now.The park had gotten scary, and my mother told us kids not to go there anymore. The drought finally ended and things seemed to get back to normal, that is, everything but the park.It had gotten into such bad shape that the city just let it stay that way.Then about six months ago I heard that the city was going to"redevelop"certain wornout areas of the city.It turned out that the city had planned to get rid of the park, sell the land and let someone build rows of apartment buildings on it. The chainlink fencing and the bulldozers did their work.Now we live across the street from six rows of apartment buildings.Each of them is three units high and stretches a block in each direction.The neighborhood has changed without the park.The streets I used to play in are jammed with cars now. Things will never be the same again.Sometimes_I_wonder, though, what_changes_another_drought_ would_make_in_the_way_things_are_today. 1. How did the writer feel when he saw the fence and bulldozers? A. Scared. B. Confused. C. Upset. D. Curious. 2. Why was the writer told not to go to the park by his mother? A. It was being rebuilt. B. It was dangerous. C. It became crowded. D. It had turned into a desert. 3. According to the writer, what eventually brought about the disappearance of the park? A. The drought. B. The crime. C. The beggars and the rubbish. D. The decisions of the city. 4. The last sentence of the passage implies that if another drought came, ________. A. the situation would be much worse B. people would have to desert their homes C. the city would be fully prepared in advance D. the city would have to redevelop the neighborhood |

| A wellmade film offers a whole world of things to watch. First there are the story aspects-the plot, characters, dialogue and themes. Then there are the technical aspects-the camera work, cuttings and special effects. And there are many other things, like the credits, musical score and the acting. A wellmade film offers much more than you see in one viewing. Films are a means of communication. They can tell you things, just as newspapers do, or television, or any other means of communication. Sometimes they communicate important things to you, like ideas or lifestyles or ways of looking at the world. Sometimes people are aware of this, and sometimes not. The more you are aware of this, the better you are. Notice, for example, the way films sometimes affect fashion. A star dresses or wears her hair in a certain way, and suddenly everyone is imitating her. Boys in the 1950s could sometimes be seen wearing black leather jackets, idling (闲逛) on street corners and smoking cigarettes. They were imitating Marion Brando. His films taught them a certain way to behave. Films can also teach politics. In Star Wars, the heroes were a bunch of lovable incompetents fighting with guts(胆量) and not much else. They were, in fact, rather like the British in the early days of WWⅡ. Their enemies, like the Nazis, had a big advantage in equipment and numbers of troops, and they were like the Nazis in discipline and heartlessness too. The whole film, in fact, was a rerun of WWⅡ, and taught values like faith and love of liberty. This is all to the good, but the point is, did you notice it? 1. All of the following are mentioned as noticeable aspects of a film EXCEPT________. A. the list of names of actors and directors, etc. B. the cost of a film C. the music for a film D. the language used in a film 2. The last sentence in Paragraph 1 probably means ________. A. a high quality film can be appreciated repeatedly from different angles B. a good film always attracts a lot of viewers C. a wellmade film usually has more than one theme D. one can never find out how many characters there are in a good film 3. It can be inferred from the passage that in his film, Marion Brando was ________. A. a motorist who always wore a black leather jacket B. a homeless man who died of excessive smoking C. a rebellious man during WWⅡ D. an idler who didn't have any serious things to do |

| Richard's father died when he was five. Later on he lost his mother. An old woman felt sorry for the poor boy and often helped him. Of course he had no money to go to school. He had to work for a rich farmer. The man paid him nothing except food and clothes. 1 He found some old books near the school and taught himself to read and write. 2 It connected the village and the town. One morning people found there was a big stone on it. It stopped them from going to town. They had to move it away, or they had to cross the mountain if they had something to do in the town. But the stone weighed thirty tons at least and the strongest young men couldn't do that. 3 Richard looked at it carefully for a while and said, "I have a way to move it away." But few men believed him. 4 Night fell and people went home. Only the boy stayed there. To their surprise, the villagers found the stone was gone the next morning. They didn't know which spirit had moved it away. 5 "How could he?" the rich farmer called out, "He's only fifteen! He couldn't move it at all!" "He dug a big hole beside the stone, "said the old woman, "And then he could easily push it into the hole !" Looking at each other, the farmers couldn't say a word. A. There seemed to be nothing strange in the village. B. The old woman said Richard had done it all. C. There was a narrow path between two mountains. D. But the boy didn't lose heart. E. Some farmers even laughed at the boy. F. The boy hoped he could do something for the villagers some day. G. They discussed for a long time, but nobody knew what to do. |

I usual travel by train or bus. It's both cheaper and safe. But to fly in the sky was something new to me. At the end I felt a little nervous. But very soon I became exciting when I found me high up in the sky among the clouds. I also found that mountains, fields, river and so on were interestingly small. I enjoy the frightening and comfortable journey very much. After all, it is more interesting take a plane than to take a car. ____________________________________________________________________________ |
