| Mark Twain left school when he was twelve. He had little school education. In spite of this, he became the most famous writer of his time. He made millions of dollars by writing. His real name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens, but he is better known all over the world as Mark Twain, his penname. Mark Twain was born in 1835 and he was not a healthy baby. In fact, he was not expected to live through the first winter. But with his mother's care, he managed to survive. As a boy, he caused much trouble for his parents. He used to play jokes on all his friends and neighbors. He didn't like to go to school, and he often ran away from home. He always went in the direction of the nearby Mississippi(密西西比河). He was nearly drowned nine times. After his father's death, Mark Twain began to work for a printer, who only provided him with food and clothing. Then, he worked as a printer, a river-boat pilot and later joined the army. But shortly after that he became a miner. During this period, he started to write short stories. Afterwards he became a full time writer. In 1870, Mark Twain got married. In the years that followed he wrote many books including Tom Sawyer in 1876, and Huckleberry Finn in 1884, which made him famous, and brought him great fortune. Unfortunately, Mark Twain got into debts in bad investments(投资) and he had to write large numbers of stories to pay these debts. In 1904, his wife died, and then three of his children passed away. At the age of 70, his hair was completely white. He bought many white suits and neckties. He wore nothing but white from head to foot until his death on April 21, 1910. |

| It is a matter of common observation that although money income keeps going up over the years, we never seem to become richer. Prices are rising continuously. This condition is what we call inflation (通胀) the money supply is becoming inflated so that each unit of it becomes less valuable. We have got used to higher and higher rates of inflation in recent years. What could be bought twenty years ago for one pound now costs well over 2 pounds. And at present this rate of inflation seems to be rising rather than falling. If in the real world our money incomes go up at the same rate as prices do?One might think that inflation doesn't matter. But it does . When money is losing value it also loses one of the qualities of a good money-stability(稳定) of value. It is no longer acceptable as a store of value; and it becomes an unsuitable means of delayed payment. Nobody wants to hold a wasting possession, so people try to get rid of money as quickly as possible. Inflation therefore simply simulates(刺激)our spending and discourages saving. |
| 1．From the passage we can know that inflation is a situation in which________. |
| A. everyone's incomes rise B. money will hold its value C. we can watch our money grow D. money constantly loses its value |
| 2．In the writer's view, if incomes and prices rise at the same rate, ________. |
| A. inflation maybe still be a problem B. we have nothing to worry about C. inflation is no longer a problem D. we will become richer and richer |
| 3．Under inflation people are likely to ________. |
| A. go to the bank more often than usual B. save more money since their incomes rise C.spend money quickly rather than to save it D.keep money at home instead of going to banks |
| 4．We can conclude according to the passage that ________. |
| A. the writer is a government official B. the writer is worried about inflation C. the writer encourages people to spend money D. the writer has become richer because of inflation |
| 5. Which of the following words is omitted (省略) at the end of the underlined sentence "But it does"?______. |
| A. Matter. B. Goes. C. Rises. D. Falls |

| Tea drinking was common in China for nearly one thousand years before anyone in Europe had ever heard about tea．People in Britain were much slower in finding out what tea was like, mainly because tea was very expensive. It could not be bought in shops and even those people who could afford to have it sent from Holland did so only because it was a fashionable curiosity. Some of them were not sure how to use it. They thought it was a vegetable and tried cooking the leaves. Then they served them mixed with butter and salt. They soon discovered their mistake but many people used to spread the used tea leaves on bread and give them to their children as sandwiches. Tea remained scarce (缺少的) and very expensive in England until the ships of the East India Company began to bring it direct from China early in the seventeenth century. During the next few years so much tea came into the country that the price fell and many people could afford to buy it. At the same time people on the Continent were becoming more and more fond of tea． Until then tea had been drunk without milk in it, but one day a famous French lady named Madame de Sevigne decided to see what tea tasted like when milk was added．She found it so pleasant that she would never again drink it without milk. Because she was such a great lady her friends thought they must copy everything she did, so they also drank their tea with milk in it. Slowly this habit spread until it reached England and today only very few Britons drink tea without milk. At first, tea was usually drunk after dinner in the evening. No one ever thought of drinking tea in the afternoon until a duchess (公爵夫人) found that a cup of tea and a piece of cake at three or four o'clock stopped her getting "a sinking feeling" as she called it. She invited her friends to have this new meal with her and so tea-time was born. |
| 1．Which of the following is true of the introduction of tea into Britain?_____ |
| A. The Britons got expensive tea from India. B. Tea reached Britain from Holland. C．The Britons were the first people in Europe who drank tea. D．It was not until the 17th century that the Britons had tea. |
| 2．This passage mainly discusses______. |
| A．the history of tea drinking in Britain B．how tea became a popular drink in Britain C．how the Britons got the habit of drinking tea D．how tea-time was born |
| 3.Tea became a popular drink in Britain.______ |
| A．in eighteenth century B．in sixteenth century C．in seventeenth century D．in the late seventeenth century |
| 4．People in Europe began to drink tea with milk because._____ |
| A．it tasted like milk B．it tasted more pleasant C．it became a popular drink D．Madame de Sevinge was such a lady with great social influence that people tried to copy the way she drank tea |
| 5．We may infer from the passage that the habit of drinking tea in Britain was mostly due to the influence of_______. |
| A．a famous French lady B．the ancient Chinese C．the upper social class D．people in Holland |

| People in the United States honor their parents with 2 special days: Mother's Day on the second Sunday in May and Father's Day on the 3rd Sunday in June. These days are to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens. They give love and care. These two days offer an opportunity to think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers. More mothers now work outside the home and more fathers must help with childcare. These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On mother's Day, people wear carnations. A red one symbolizes a living mother. A white one shows that the mother is dead. Many people attend religious services to honor parents. It's also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery(grave). On these days families get together at home as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecue for Father's Day. These are days of fun and good feelings and memories. Another tradition is to give cards and gifts. Children make them in school. Many people make their own presents. These are more valued than those bought in stores. It's not the value of the gift that is important, but "the thought that counts". Greeting card stores, florists, candy makers, bakers, phone companies and other stores do lots of business during these holidays. |
