On the first day of class, Mr. Whiteson gave us a lecture about a creature(生物) called cattytiger, a kind of cat-like animal that completely disappeared during the Ice Age. He passed round a skull (头骨) as he talked, and we all felt interested and took notes while listening. Later, we had a test about that.

When he returned my paper, I was very, very surprised. There was a very large cross through each of my answers. And so it was with everyone else's in our class.

What had happened? Everyone was wondering and couldn't wait to get the answer.

Very simple, Mr. Whiteson explained. He had made up all that story about the cattytiger. There had never been such an animal. So why none of us noticed that and how could we expect good marks for the incorrect answers?

Needless to say, we got very angry. What kind of teacher was this?

We should have guessed it out, Mr. Whiteson said. After all, at the very moment he was passing around the cattytiger skull (in fact, a cat's), hadn't he been telling us that it completely disappeared during the Ice Age? Clearly he was telling a lie. But we just kept busy making notes and none used his head. We should learn something from this. Teachers and textbooks are not always correct.

1.We failed in the test because we didn't ______.

A. take notes while listening

B. show interest in what Mr. Whiteson said

C. listen to the teacher carefully

D. think carefully

2.We got angry because ______.

A. Mr. Whiteson didn't tell us the truth about cattytiger

B. we failed in the test

C. we didn't know why he played the joke on us

D. there was no cattytiger

3.We didn't find out it was a lie for ______.

A. we simply believed our teacher very much

B. we took notes carelessly

C. we hadn't watched the skull carefully enough

D. Mr. Whiteson spoke too fast

4.Mr. Whiteson meant that ______.

A. teachers couldn't make any mistakes

B. textbooks might be wrong sometimes

C. we should speak up if we thought our teacher or the textbook was wrong

D. we shouldn't believe our teachers because sometimes they might tell lies

A

My friend Robert started a new job this week and he’s been in the training class for two days. The employer has a very strict dress code—dark blue shirts and pants.

On the first day, an older gentleman in his class did not have the proper clothes and he was strictly told that he would be fired if he didn’t have the right clothes the next day. He explained, “Sir, I had not been told about this. Because of my larger size, it’s sometimes difficult to find the right clothing for a price I can afford.”

Last night, Robert and I decided that this old man shouldn’t lose the chance of work simply because he couldn’t afford the clothes. I had some cash on hand and Robert took it with him this morning just in case it was needed.

When training started this morning, the trainer was ready to fire the older gentleman. “You have 10 minutes to be in proper clothes,” he was told. At this point, Robert spoke up and asked if he could have 10 minutes to get him the clothes. He then ran out to the store and bought the proper-sized pants and a shirt; he returned with both and gave them to the older man.

The older gentleman began to cry and told him that he couldn’t accept such a gift from a stranger. Robert told him he had to because he had lost the receipt(收据) and couldn’t return them—a little white lie. The pants were a perfect fit, the shirt was a bit tight but he was able to keep his job.

“My wife and I tried to gather together some money last night, but we didn’t have enough to buy the clothes,” he told Robert. “It’s unbelievable to me that anybody would do such a thing for only knowing me a day!”

More unbelievable is how good it has made Robert and me feel to do this.

1.If the older man did not have the proper clothes, he would _____

A.be punished

B.be offered another job

C.put off the training class

D.lose his job

2. The money which was paid for the clothes belonged to _____

A.the trainer

B.the older man

C.the writer

D.Robert

3.How did Robert persuade the older man to accept the clothes?

A.He told the older man that he would lose his job if he did not take them.

B.He told a lie that the clothes didn’t fit himself.

C.He told the older man that he could save money and return it later.

D.He told the older man that he had no way to send them back.

4.What might be the best title for the passage?

A.Proper clothes for a stranger

B.Fight against strict rules

C.A strange employer

D.An unbelievable thing
