    China is a land of bicycles.At least it was back in 1992 when I traveled the country.Back then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle.Millions of them，all black.Cars were rare.Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year，I’ve found the opposite is true.There are millions of cars.However，people still use their bicycles to get around.For many，it’s the easiest and cheapest way to travel today.Bicycles also come in different colors－silver，green，red，blue，yellow，whatever you want.
    It’s fun watching people biking.They rush quickly through crossroads，move skillfully through traffic，and ride even on sidewalks(人行道)．Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just can’t provide.
    Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture，I decided to buy a bicycle.Great weather accompanied my great buy.I immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home.
    My first ride home was orderly (守秩序的)．To be safe，I stayed with a“pack”of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times.I didn’t want to get hit.So I took the ride carefully.
    Crossing the streets was the biggest problem.It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States.The streets here were wide，so crossing took time，skill and a little bit of luck.
    I finally made it home.The feeling on the bicycle was amazing.The air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful.I was sitting on top of the world as I passed by places and people.Biking made me feel alive.
    小题1:According to the author，why are bicycles still popular in China today?
    A．Because they are traditional and safe.
    B．Because they are convenient and inexpensive.
    C．Because they are colorful and available.
    D．Because they are fast and environment friendly.
    小题2:The author decided to buy a bicycle because he intended ________.
    A．to ride it for fun
    B．to use it for transport
    C．to experience local culture
    D．to improve his riding skills
    小题3:How did the author feel about his street crossing?
    A．It was boring.B．It was difficult.
    C．It was lively.D．It was wonderful.
    小题4:Which of the following best describes the author’s biking experience?
    A．The author enjoyed showing off his biking skills.
    B．The author was annoyed by the air while riding.
    C．The author was praised by the other bikers.
    D．The author took great pleasure in biking.

    小题1:B
    小题2:C
    小题3:B
    小题4:D
    本文为记叙文。中国在过去是自行车的王国，而现在仍然有很多人喜欢骑自行车出行，因为这种交通方式方便、省钱。为了融入这种文化，“我”也买了一辆自行车。但是在回家途中，发现骑车过街是最大的问题，需要时间、技巧和一点儿运气。但是骑行经历让“我”觉得很愉快、很有趣。
    小题1:解析：选B。细节理解题。根据第一段中的For many，it’s the easiest and cheapest way to travel today.可知，自行车如今仍然很受欢迎，是因为它的便捷和经济。根据倒数第二段和倒数第三段的叙述可知，骑自行车并不安全，速度也不是很快，故A项和D项错误；文章虽然提到了自行车的颜色多种多样，但这并不是它受欢迎的原因，故C项错误。
    小题2:解析：选C。细节理解题。根据第三段第一句话Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture...可知，作者购买自行车是因为迫切地想融入中国的这种文化之中，故C项正确。作者在有了骑行经历之后才发现了其中的乐趣，故A项错误；文章并未提到作者购买自行车是为了作为交通工具或者提高骑行技术，故排除B项和D项。
    小题3:解析：选B。细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的叙述可知，骑车过街是最大的问题，需要时间、技巧和运气，因此作者认为骑车过街非常困难。其余选项均与本段内容不符。
    小题4:解析：选D。推理判断题。由最后一段可知，空气吹拂脸颊和头发的感觉很美妙，骑行时就像坐在了世界的顶端，骑自行车使作者觉得充满了活力。由此可判断出，作者觉得骑自行车很有乐趣，故D项正确。A项意为“作者喜欢炫耀自己的骑行技术”；B项意为“作者很讨厌骑行时的空气”；C项意为“作者被其他骑行人员赞扬了”，均与文章内容不符。

    In my living room，there is a plaque (匾) that advises me to“Bloom (开花) where you are planted.” It reminds me of Dorothy.I got to know Dorothy in the early 1980s，when I was teaching Early Childhood Development through a program with Union College in Barbourville，Kentucky.The job responsibilities required occasional visits to the classroom of each teacher in the program.Dorothy stands out in my memory as one who“bloomed”in her remote area.
    Dorothy taught in a school in Harlan County，Kentucky，Appalachian Mountain area.To get to her school from the town of Harlan，I followed a road winding around the mountain.In the eight­mile journey，I crossed the same railroad track five times，giving the possibility of getting caught by the same train five times.Rather than feeling excited by this drive through the mountains，I found it depressing.The poverty level was shocking and the small shabby houses gave me the greatest feeling of hopelessness.
    From the moment of my arrival at the little school，all gloom (忧郁) disappeared.Upon arriving at Dorothy’s classroom.I was greeted with smiling faces and treated like a queen.The children had been prepared to show me their latest projects.Dorothy told me with a big smile that they were serving poke greens salad and cornbread for“dinner”(lunch)．In case you don’t know，poke greens are a weed­type plant that grows wild，especially on poor ground.
    Dorothy never ran out of reports of exciting activities of her students.Her enthusiasm never cooled down.When it came time to sit for the testing and interviewing required to receive her Child Development Associate Certification，Dorothy was ready.She came to the assessment and passed in all areas.Afterward，she invited me to the one­and­only steak house in the area to celebrate her victory，as if she had received her Ph.D.degree.After the meal，she placed a little box containing an old pen in my hand.She said it was a family heirloom (传家宝)，but to me it is a treasured symbol of appreciation and pride that cannot be matched with things.
    小题1:“Early Childhood Development”in Paragraph 1 refers to________.
    A．a program directed by Dorothy
    B．a course given by the author
    C．an activity held by the students

    小题2:In the journey，the author was most disappointed at seeing________.
    A．the long track
    B．the poor houses
    C．the same train
    D．the winding road
    小题3:Upon arriving at the classroom，the author was cheered up by________.
    A．a warm welcome
    B．the sight of poke greens
    C．Dorothy’s latest projects
    D．a big dinner made for her
    小题4:What can we know about Dorothy from the last paragraph?
    A．She was invited to a celebration at a restaurant.
    B．She got a pen as a gift from the author.
    C．She passed the required assessment.
    D．She received her Ph.D.degree.
    小题5:What does the author mainly intend to tell us?
    A．Whatever you do，you must do it carefully.
    B．Whoever you are，you deserve equal treatment.
    C．However poor you are，you have the right to education.
    D．Wherever you are，you can accomplish your achievement.

    (2013·山东卷)Sparrow is a fast－food chain with 200 restaurants.Some years ago，the group to which Sparrow belonged was taken over by another company.Although Sparrow showed no sign of declining，the chain was generally in an unhealthy state.With more and more fast－food concepts reaching the market，the Sparrow menu had to struggle for attention.And to make matters worse，its new owner had no plans to give it the funds it required.
    Sparrow failed to grow for another two years until a new CEO，Carl Pearson，decided to build up its market share.He did a survey，which showed that consumers who already used Sparrow restaurants were extremely positive about the chain，while customers of other fast－food chains were unwilling to turn away from them.Sparrow had to develop a new promotional campaign.
    Pearson faced a battle over the future of the Sparrow brand.The chain's owner now favored rebranding Sparrow as Marcy's restaurants.Pearson resisted，arguing for an advertising campaign designed to convince customers that visits to Sparrow restaurants were fun.Such an attempt to establish a positive relationship between a company and the general public was unusual for that time.Pearson strongly believed that numbers were the key to success，rather than customers' spending power.Finally，the owner accepted his idea.
    The campaign itself changed the traditional advertising style of the fast－food industry.The TV ads of Sparrow focused on entertainment and featured original songs performed by a variety of stars.Instead of showing the superiority of a specific product，the intention was to put Sparrow in the hearts of potential customers.
    Pearson also made other decisions which he believed would contribute to the new Sparrow image.For example，he offered to lower the rent of any restaurants which achieved a certain increase in their turnover(营业额)．
    These efforts paid off，and Sparrow soon became one of the most successful fast－food chains in the regions where it operated.
    小题1:Which was one of the problems Sparrow faced before Pearson became CEO?
    A．The number of its customers was declining.
    B．Its customers found the food unhealthy.
    C．It was in need of financial support.
    D．Most of its restaurants were closed.
    小题2:What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
    A．Customers of Sparrow restaurants.
    B．Sparrow restaurants.
    C．Customers of other fast－food chains.
    D．Other fast－food chains.
    小题3:For what purpose did Pearson start the advertising campaign?
    A．To build a good relationship with the public.
    B．To stress the unusual tradition of Sparrow.
    C．To learn about customers' spending power.
    D．To meet the challenge from Marcy's restaurants.
    小题4:What was Pearson's achievement as a CEO?
    A．He managed to pay off Sparrow's debts.
    B．He made Sparrow much more competitive.
    C．He helped Sparrow take over a company.
    D．He improved the welfare of Sparrow employees.

    “Cleverness is a gift while kindness is a choice. Gifts are easy – they’re given after all. Choices can be hard.” –– Jeff Bezos.
    I got the idea to start Amazon 16 years ago. I came across the fact that the Internet usage was growing at 2,300 percent per year. I’d never seen or heard of anything that grew that fast, and the idea of building an online bookstore with millions of titles was very exciting to me. I had just turned 30 years old, and I’d been married for a year. I told my wife MacKenzie that I wanted to quit my job and go to do this crazy thing that probably wouldn’t work since most start-ups don’t, and I wasn’t sure what to expect. MacKenzie told me I should go for it. As a young boy, I’d been a garage inventor. I’d always wanted to be an inventor, and she wanted me to follow my passion.
    I was working at a financial firm in New York City with a bunch of very smart people, and I had a brilliant boss that I much admired. I went to my boss and told him I wanted to start a company selling books on the Internet. He took me on a long walk in Central Park, listened carefully to me, and finally said, “That sounds like a really good idea, but it would be an even better idea for someone who didn’t already have a good job.” That logic made some sense to me, and he convinced me to think about it for 48 hours before making a final decision. Seen in that light, it really was a difficult choice, but ultimately (最后), I decided I had to give it a shot. I didn’t think I’d regret trying and failing. And I suspected I would always be haunted by a decision to not try at all.
    After much consideration, I took the less safe path to follow my passion, and I’m proud of that choice. For all of us, in the end, we are our choices.
    小题1:What inspired the author with the idea of building an online bookstore?
    A．His dream of being an inventor.
    B．The support of his wife.
    C．The greatly increasing usage of the Internet.
    D．Millions of exciting titles.
    小题2:Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined sentence?
    A．The idea of not trying would keep coming to his mind and disturb him.
    B．He would be very excited if he tried it out.
    C．He would be always having a doubt if he didn’t try.
    D．The decision to not try the online bookstore would terrify him.
    小题3:We can know from the passage that _______.
    A．the boss thought the idea was suitable for the author
    B．the author wanted someone else to try the idea
    C．the author might not regret if he failed the idea
    D．the author might go back to his boss if he failed
    小题4:Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
    A．Cleverness and KindnessB．The Starting of Amazon
    C．Following My PassionD．We Are What We Choose

    When Mary Moore began her high school in 1951, her mother told her, “Be sure and take a typing course so when this show business thing doesn’t work out, you’ll have something to rely on.” Mary responded in typical teenage fashion. From that moment on, “the very last thing I ever thought about doing was taking a typing course,” she recalls.
    The show business thing worked out, of course. In her career, Mary won many awards. Only recently, when she began to write Growing Up Again, did she regret ignoring her mom. “I don’t know how to use a computer,” she admits.
    Unlike her 1995 autobiography, After All, her second book is less about life as an　award-winning actress and more about living with diabetes (糖尿病). All the money from the book is intended for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), an organization she serves as international chairman. “I felt there was a need for a book like this,” she says. “I didn’t want to lecture, but I wanted other diabetics to know that things get better when we’re self-controlled and do our part in managing the disease.”
    But she hasn’t always practiced what she teaches. In her book, she describes that awful day, almost 40 years ago, when she received two pieces of life-changing news. First, she had lost the baby she was carrying, and second, tests showed that she had diabetes. In a childlike act, she left the hospital and treated herself to a box of doughnuts (甜甜圈). Years would pass before she realized she had to grow up－again－and take control of her diabetes, not let it control her. Only then did she kick her three-pack-a-day cigarette habit, overcome her addiction to alcohol, and begin to follow a balanced diet.
    Although her disease has affected her eyesight and forced her to the sidelines of the dance floor, she refuses to fall into self-pity. “Everybody on earth can ask, ‘why me?’ about something or other,” she insists. “It doesn’t do any good. No one is immune (免疫的) to heartache, pain, and disappointments. Sometimes we can make things better by helping others. I’ve come to realize the importance of that as I’ve grown up this second time. I want to speak out and be as helpful as I can be.”
    小题1:Why did Mary feel regretful?
    A．She didn’t achieve her ambition.
    B．She didn’t take care of her mother.
    C．She didn’t complete her high school.
    D．She didn’t follow her mother’s advice.
    小题2:We can know that before 1995 Mary      .
    A．had two books published
    B．received many career awards
    C．knew how to use a computer
    D．supported the JDRF by writing
    小题3:Mary’s second book Growing Up Again is mainly about her      .
    A．living with diabetesB．successful show business
    C．service for an organizationD．remembrance of her mother
    小题4:When Mary received the life-changing news, she      .
    A．lost control of herselfB．began a balanced diet
    C．tried to get a treatment D．behaved in an adult way
    小题5:What can we know from the last paragraph?
    A．Mary feels pity for herself.
    B．Mary has recovered from her disease.
    C．Mary wants to help others as much as possible.
    D．Mary determines to go back to the dance floor.

    The clock struck eleven at night. The whole house was quiet. Everyone was in bed except me. Under the strong light, I looked sadly before me at a huge pile of that troublesome stuff（东西） they call “books”.
    I was going to have my examination the next day.  “When can I go to bed？” I asked myself. I didn’t answer. In fact I dared not.
    The clock struck twelve. “Oh，dear！” I cried. “Ten more books to read before I can go to bed！” We pupils are the most wretched creatures in the world. Dad does not agree with me on this. He did not have to work so hard when he was a boy.
    The clock struck one. I was quite desperate（绝望的） now. I forgot all I had learned. I was too tired to go on. I did the only thing I could. I prayed， “Oh, God, please help me pass the exam tomorrow. I do promise to work hard afterwards，Amen.” My eyes were so heavy that I could hardly open them. A few minutes later, with my head on the desk, I fell asleep.
