         My husband is a born shopper. He loves to look at things and to touch them. He likes to compare
    prices between the same items in different shops. He would never think of buying anything without
    looking around in several different shops. On the other hand, I'm not a shopper. I think shopping is
    boring and unpleasant. If I like something and I have enough money to take it, I buy it at once. I never
    look around for a good price or a better deal. Of course my husband and I never go shopping together.
    Doing shopping together would be too painful for both of us. When it comes to shopping, we go our
    different ways.
          Sometimes I ask my son Jimmy to buy some food in the shop not far from our home. But he is always
    absent-minded. This was his story.
         One day I said to him, " I hope you won't forget what I have told you to buy." " No," said Jimmy. "I
    won't forget. You want three oranges , six eggs and a pound of meat."
         He went running down the street to the shop. As he ran, he said to himself over and over again, "three
    oranges , six eggs and a pound of meat."
         In the beginning he remember everything but he stopped several times. Once he saw two men fighting
    outside a clothes shop until a policeman stopped them. One of them was badly hurt. Then he stopped to
    give ten cents to a beggar. Then he met some of his friends and he played with them for a while. When he
    reached the shop, he had forgotten everything except six eggs.
         As he walked home, his face became sadder and sadder. When he saw me he said, "I'm sorry, Mum.
    I have forgotten to buy oranges and the meat. I only remembered to buy six eggs, but I've dropped three
    of them."
    1.The husband likes shopping because _______.
    A. he has much money.
    B. he likes the shops.
    C. he likes to compare the prices between the same items.
    D. he has nothing to do but shopping.

    A. their ways of shopping are quite different      
    B. they hate each other.
    C. they needn't buy anything for the family      
    D. they don't have time for it.
    3. Jimmy can't do the shopping well because _______.
    A. he is young              
    B. he is absent-minded
    C. he often loses his money

         In the fall of 1985, I was a bright-eyed girl heading off to Howard University, aiming at a legal career and
    dreaming of sitting on a Supreme Court bench somewhere. Twenty-one years later I am later I am still a bright-
    eyed dreamer and one with quite a different tale to tell.
         My grandma, an amazing woman, graduated from college at the age of 65. She was the first in our family
    to reach that goal. But one year after I started college, she developed cancer. I made the choice to withdraw
    from college to care for her. It meant that school and my personal dream would have to wait.
         Then I got married with another dream: building my family with a combination of adopt and biological
    children. In 1999, we adopted our first son. To lay eyes on him was fantastic and very emotional. A year later
    came our second adopted boy. Then followed son No.3. In 2003, I gave birth to another boy.
         You can imagine how fully occupied I became, raising four boys under the age of 81. Our home was a
    complete zoo-a joyous zoo. Not surprising, I never did make it back to college full-time. But I never gave up
    on the dream either. I had only one choice: to find a way. That meant talking as few as one class each semester. 
         The hardest part was feeling guilty about the time I spent away from the boys. They often wanted me to
    stay home with them. There certainly were times I wanted to quit, But I knew I should set an example for
    them to follow through the rest of their lives.
         In 2007, I graduated from the University of North Carolina. It took me over 21 years to get my college
    degree!
         I am not special, just single-minded. It always struck me that when you're looking at a big challenge from
    the outside it looks huge, but when you're in the midst of it, it just seems normal. Everything you want won't
    arrive in your life on one day. It's a process. Remember: little steps add up to big dreams.
    1. When the author went to Howard University, her dream was to be _____.
    A. a writer
    B. a teacher
    C. a judge
    D. a doctor
    2. Why did the author quit school in her second year of college?
    A. She wanted to study by herself.
    B. She fell in love and got married.
    C. She suffered from a serious illness.
    D. She decided to look after her grandma.
    3. What does the author mostly want to tell us in the last paragraph?
    A. Failure is the mother of success.
    B. Little by little, one goes far.
    C. Every coin has two sides.
    D. Well begun, half done.
    4. Which of the following can best describe the author?
    A. Caring and determined.
    B. Honest and responsible.
    C. Ambitious and sensitive.
    D. Innocent and single-minded.

         Do you have a sore (痛的) throat, a running nose and a headache? Do you keep coughing and
    sneezing? If you do, the chances are that you have a cold or perhaps flu-but which one? Although both
    colds and flu are caused by viruses (病毒), they are very different illnesses.
         Colds, which usually last about a week, affect the nose most. They commonly cause a runny nose and
    sneezing. Sometimes, they cause a headache, a cough and slightly aching muscles.
         Flu is much more serious illness and is caused by different group of viruses. People with flu usually get
    all the symptoms (症状) described above. However, they also get a high fever, a dry cough and much
    worse aching. Fever is one of the typical (典型的) symptoms of the flu for all ages. The symptoms also
    last much longer. Sometimes they don't disappear for at least two weeks.
         Flu can be a deadly disease. The elderly, who are weaker and less healthy than most younger people,
    can die from flu. This is one reason why old people are advised to have a flu injection (预防针) before
    the start of winter when flu is most common. This injection is inexpensive and definitely worth it.
         If you have a cold or flu, you must always deal with used tissues carefully. Don't leave dirty tissues on
    your desk or on the floor. Someone else has to pick these up and viruses could be passed on. And finally, remember to cover your nose and mouth when you sneeze!You don't want to see the small drop of
    liquids blown out of your nose and mouth when you sneeze, do you? Disgusting (讨厌的), eh? Now you
    can undersdand why it's a good idea to cover your nose and mouth when you sneeze!
    1. In paragraph 4, we learn that ______.
    A. flu injection can cause death    
    B. most old people die from flu
    C. flu is most common in summer  
    D. flu can kill old people easily
    2. Dealing with used tissues properly is important because ______.
    A. it helps keep your classroom tidy      
    B. people hate picking up dirty tissues
    C. it prevents the spread of colds and flu  
    D. picking up lots of tissues is hard work
    3. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
    A. Both colds and flu last the same time.
    B. Both colds and flu can be prevented by injection.
    C. Both colds and fluare caused by the same viruses.
    D. Both colds and flu have a aching symptom.
    4. Which is probably the best title for the passage?
    A. Cold or Flu?                
    B. The Different Symptoms of a Cold an Flu?
    C. Prevention Is Better Than Cure  
    D. Cover Your Nose and Mouth When Sneezing

          How Women Were Freed From Their Homes
          As late as 1800, a woman's only place was in her home. Women in business were unheard of. No
    respectable woman would dream of entering what was strictly a "man's world". Even if she would, what
    could she do? Men were sure that no woman could do a job well outside her home. This was a widely
    accepted idea. When the famous Bronte sisters began writing books in 1846, they had to resort to using
    men's names as aliases. (化名)
         Teaching was the first profession opened to women, soon after 1800. But even that was not easy for
    women to take because most high schools and colleges were open only to men. Oberlin College in Ohio
    was the first college in America to take in women.
         Nursing was regarded as a respectable profession for women only after Florence Nightingale won
    high credit for her nursing career and became famous. Miss Nightingale opened the first training school
    for nursing in 1860 in England.
         The invention of typewriters in 1867 helped to bring women out of their homes to join the business
    world. Because women are careful and have nimble fingers, businessmen found that they were well suited
    to this kind of work.
         By 1890, tens of thousands of women were working in schools, hospitals, shops, offices, and factories both in England and the States. Some even managed to become doctors or lawyers. The idea of women
    working in business and other circles was accepted.
    1.  Oberlin College was the first college in America _______.
    A. where teaching was a profession only open to women
    B. where girls could get advanced education
    C. to train women to be teachers and nurses
    D. to accept women only as professors and students
    2. It can be inferred from the text that besides nursing, Florence Nightingale was also ______.
    A. a doctor
    B. a lawyer
    C. a teacher
    D. a businessman
    3. Quite a lot of women entered the business world _______
    A. soon after 1800
    B. when Nightingale became famous
    C. at the beginning of this century
    D. after the typewriter came into being

    多余选项。
         If you want to keep fit, please refer to the following :
         1. Move More
         Make it a rule to find ways to move your body.   1  Climb stairs instead of taking the elevator. Walk
    your dog, play with your kids. It doesn't have to be an hour in the gym or a 45-minute  dance class. But
    that's great when you're up to it. At the same time , move more.
         2. Quit Smoking
         Ever since 1960 when it was announced that smoking was harmful to health, Americans have been
    reducing their use of tobacco products. Just recently, we've seen more and more teens smoking. Could it
    be the Hollywood influence?   2  Take care! Warn your children against smoking.   
             3

    more than that can cause other health problems such as liver and kidney (肝肾) disease and cancer.
         3. Reduce Stress
        Easier said than done, stress comes in many ways.    4  Spend 30 minutes a day doing something you

    Lee was younger, pretty and kind-hearted. That is hard for me to describe how she was like. However,
