| One Sunday a few of us decided to take advantage of the first sunny day we'd have for ages to take a trip down to the coast to visit the penguins again. Last time I went down there was a couple of months ago and it was a dull cold day. Sunday couldn't have been more different - clear skies and sunshine made it feel like summer, although it was still -25°C. Six of us drove to the coast. It was the first time we'd been off the base on our own without our field assistant, so it had a slightly different feeling - more like a few friends going to the seaside than an Antarctic field trip! When we reached Windy Creek, we luckily caught sight of quite a few small flying seabirds, which are seldom seen there. Once on the sea ice we found that some of the more curious penguins had wandered over from the main group to come and check us out. We'd been told that then they were nursing their chicks (刚孵出 的幼雏) and they would be more careful and nervous than last time, but that didn't seem to be the case. We walked across to the main group which were stretched for a couple of miles along the coast. We sat down for some sandwiches and soon found ourselves surrounded by many curious observers. Without any attackers on land, they were very brave and came within a meter of us to pose (摆姿势) for photos. Before heading back, we spent a few hours on the sea ice watching the penguins and their chicks, which had grown dramatically (明显地) since our last visit. It was such a nice day. |
| 1. When did the trip most probably happen? |
| A. On a dull Sunday. B. On a warm Sunday. C. On a summer Sunday. D. On a winter Sunday. |
| 2. It can be inferred from the second paragraph that the six people _____. |
| A. felt a little nervous B. felt a little excited C. were left all by themselves on their Antarctic base D. got bored with staying with their field assistant |
| 3. What does the writer mean by saying "but that didn't seem to be the case"? |
| A. They were told a lie. B. A wrong decision was made. C. The truth was the opposite. D. They didn't believe what they were told. |
| 4. The six people did the following during the trip EXCEPT _____. |
| A. feed the penguins B. take pictures of the penguins C. enjoy watching flying seabirds D. watch the young penguins |

| Hidden in our subconsciousness(潜意识)is a perfect mental picture. We see ourselves on a long trip that goes across the continent. We are traveling by train. Out the windows, we think in the passing scene of cars on nearby highways, of children waving at a crossing , of cattle feeding on a distant hillside, of smoke pouring from a power plant, or row upon row of corn and wheat, of flat lands and valleys, of mountains and rolling hills, of city skylines and village halls. But uppermost in our minds is the final destination. On a certain day at a certain hour, we will pull into the station. Bands will be playing and flags waving. Once we get there, so many wonderful dreams will come true and the pieces of our lives will fit together like a completed jigsaw puzzle. How restlessly we pace the aisles, condemning(谴责)the minutes for loitering(虚度)- waiting, waiting, waiting for the station. "When we reach the station, that will be it!"we cry. "When I'm 38." "When I buy a new 450SL Mercdes Benz!""When I put the last kid through college.""When I have paid off the debt!" "When I get a promotion.""When I reach the age of rement, I shall live happily ever after!" Sooner or later, we must realize there is no station, no one place to arrive at once and for all. The true joy of life is the trip. The station is only a dream.It constantly outdistances us. "Relish(appreciate) the moment" is a good motto, actually it isn't the burdens of today that drive man mad. It is the regret over yesterday and the fear of tomorrow. Regret and fear are twin thieves who rob us of today. So stop pacing the aisles and counting the miles. Instead, climb more mountains, eat more icecream, swim more rivers, watch more sunsets, laugh more and cry less. Life must be lived as we go along. Then the station will come soon enough. |

| A. To lead us into a perfect world. B. To let people enjoy the scenery. C. To introduce an actual trip of his. D. To compare it to our life's journey. |
| 2. How do people feel when they're on their trip? |
| A. Puzzled. B. Happy. C. Relaxed. D. Impatient. |
| 3. What does the author mean by "Regret and fear are twin thieves who rob us of today" in Line 2 Paragraph 5? |
| A. Regret and fear are responsible for the loss of today. B. We must be careful of the two thieves: regret and fear. C. Regret and fear stop us from enjoying our present life. D. We're frequently challenged by the two: regret and fear. |
| 4. Why does the author write the passage? |
| A. To teach us a good lesson. B. To tell us the right attitude to life. C. To advise us to forget our worries. D. To stop us wandering along the aisles. |

| Doctors' moonlighting is becoming popular in hospitals around China. It has not only raised a lot of heated discussions in the media, but also caught the attention of the central government in Beijing. On December 26, a spokesman of the Ministry of Health stressed that the ministry was firmly against doctors' moonlighting, while strict regulations should be applied to doctors taking part-time jobs, the Xinhua News Agency reported. Last year, the Ministry sent out a notice to a variety of health organizations to speed up the reform of their personnel (人事) system. According to the notice, medical organizations can hire medical experts as part-time doctors but such activities should take place under the hospital's management and regulations(规定). As for moonlighting--meaning that the doctor provides medical service without the permission of the original hospital--such activity goes against China's Practicing Doctor Law, Xinhua reported. In China, doctors used to be controlled by hospitals and they could work for only one hospital. However, as China's medical personnel system reform developed, it has been recognized that medical human resources, just like human resources in other areas, should be shared by the whole society. But on the other hand, doctors' taking part-time jobs should follow the relative regulations applied in the medical field. First of all, they should follow relative government laws and regulations. They should also follow the rules and regulations set by the medical organizations they work for. In addition, they should pay taxes for their income from the part-time jobs. What matters most is that they should first finish their regular jobs as required and be responsible for patients to ensure qualified and safe medical treatment. |
| 1. What is the greatest difference between moonlighting and taking part-time jobs? |
| A. Doctors can earn more money by moonlighting than by taking part-time jobs. B. Doctors pay fewer taxes for the money made by moonlighting than by taking part-time jobs. C. Taking part-time jobs is permitted by hospitals while moonlighting is-against the present regulations. D. Doctor's part-time jobs, instead of moonlighting, are encouraged by health organizations. |
| 2. From this passage we know that doctors are allowed to nowadays. |
| A. only work for one hospital B. work for more than one hospital C. work any time when they are free D. be out of control of hospitals |
| 3. The passage is taken most probably from . |
| A. a notice sent out by the Ministry of Health B. regulations made by health organizations C. China's Practicing Doctor Law D. a magazine or a newspaper |
| 4. According to the passage, we have got to know that . |
| A. all doctors around China prefer moonlighting to part-time jobs B. moonlighting has been permitted by China's practicing Doctor Law C. taxes should be paid for the money doctors get from their part-time jobs D. strict management policies have been adopted to direct the moonlighting |

| There is one thing that everyone wants more than anything else. 1 They think that when they have enough money to buy such things as houses, farms, and cars, they will have the one thing that everyone wants.

What is it that all of us keep working and striving for( 奋斗 ) each day? 3 . Happiness is a strange thing. 4 What will make one man happy may not make another man happy.
