I’m Adam Gun from Istanbul, Turkey. I’m in a good school. And at the age of 15, in my first year of high school. I’m a great fan of tennis and cycling. I play tennis twice a week for two hours each time. Sometimes I want to play more, but I just keep playing for hours on end, never getting tired of doing it. This is one of the rare things I love in my life, in addition to cycling.
Like tennis, I find that I’m able to ride for ever and ever. Since Istanbul is made up of large and small hills, it’s a nice challenge to ride my bike every day. Although there aren’t many cycling places in Istanbul, I’m lucky enough to live near the biggest park. It’s downhill from my house to the park and I enjoy cycling up as much as floating down, because it’s challenging.
Now I have been thinking about being a lawyer and following my father’s footsteps, but I just don’t think I’m into it. I have heard people tell me over and over again: If you want to be happy with your life, you need to like and enjoy your job. Well, I’m not sure about the fact that I will enjoy being a lawyer when I grow up. I’m just not the type of person who sits down and studies for hours. So I just need opinions on whether to become a tennis player(hopefully), to become a cyclist(hopefully) or to become a lawyer.
小题1:We can know that Adam Gun is satisfied with ______.
A.his friendsB.his choice to be a lawyerC.his schoolD.his favorite tennis star
小题2:According to the passage, Adam Gun believes that cycling in Istanbul______.
A.need skillsB.needs good preparationC.is easy but boringD.is difficult but challenging
小题3:What does the underlined part in the last paragraph mean?
A.I’m able to do it.B.I hate to do it.C.I’m confident about it.D.I’m interested in it.
小题4:What’s Adam Gun’s problem?
A.He isn’t certain about his future career.
B.He has no enough time to practise tennis.
C.His dad disagrees with his career choice.
D.He can’t concentrate on his study for hours.

This was an unforgettable and wonderful experience.It happened about three years ago and it has had a 26 effect on me.I would like to show respect here for the two men I do not know 27 but whose actions gave a new 28 to the words — kind and generous.
I was walking down a busy street on a cold, windy day in early 29 , A homeless man, probably about 60 and without wearing any shoes, was 30 for change on a street corner.
A BMW car 31 on the other side of the street and an executive(主管)who was perfectly dressed stepped out of the car.He was probably about 32 years old.He was wearing a blue business suit with a deep red silk tie.He walked33across the street and over to the homeless man.Without saying anything, he first gave him a lot of 34 and then he sat down and took off his leather gloves(手套), beautiful black leather shoes and his black dress socks.Then he 35 them to the homeless man.The homeless man took them and stared with a/an 36 mouth.
As he drove off, I couldn’t 37 thinking that it was probably the first time he had 38 the pedal( 踏板)of that top-brand BMW car with a 39 foot! I stood there and the looks of 40 appeared on my face and the homeless man’s.
Two men of about the same age 41 very different lives had met and the one who was42 in materials had offered 43 than his shoes.He had left this BMW car and 44 down from his high position.He lifted up the other man when he offered respect, 45 and real generosity.

“Mark Twain” was the name used by Samuel Langhorne Clemens (1835~1910) when he wrote books.His father was a lawyer,but a poor one,who lived in Florida,Missouri.The family was so poor that Samuel did not receive much teaching.He had to learn all that he could from the people whom he met.His father died when he was very young,and then there was even less money than before.
Many of the men in this part of America worked in the ships on the great Mississippi River,and he did this himself at one time (1857).
Where did he find the name “Mark Twain”? It came from the great river itself.It was part of one of the cries used by men who worked in the ships.When a man called “By the mark twain!” he meant that the river was “two marks deep” there,that is to say,six feet deep ( “Twain” is an old form of the word “Two”.) Samuel Clemens often heard these words when he was young,and he used them as a pen name all his life.
During his work on the Mississippi he met travelers of all kinds,and this helped him a great deal when he started to write.But the number of travelers became smaller when war started in America in 1861.Many of the great ships on the river stopped work.Samuel left then and went to Nevada with his brother,who was at that time Governor of Nevada.There,near the town of Carson,Samuel became a gold miner,but he never made much money at the time.He soon saw that life in the gold mines was not for him.He also tried writing for the newspapers in Nevada,and this seemed more hopeful.He found that he could write.
He went to Europe in 1867 and visited France and Italy.In 1870 he married Olivia Langdon,and two years later he was spending nearly all his time writing.Among his books is his own story (1908).
He is now always known as Mark Twain,and many people do not even know that his family name was Clemens.He traveled in America and in England,and went to Oxford in 1907.He was one of the great American writers of the time,and could make his readers laugh—a thing which few writers can do.He died in 1910.
小题1:“Mark Twain” was         .
A.a famous American writer
B.name of a book
C.a great river in America
D.a large ship
小题2:As a child,Samuel did not get much education because         .

小题3:What gave him a great deal when he started writing?
A.His poor childhood.
B.The Mississippi River.
C.All kinds of travelers he met.
D.His brother.
小题4:We can infer(推断)from the passage that         .
A.Samuel loved writing from his early age
B.Samuel did not love writing at the beginning
C.his writings to the newspaper were successful
D.his brother encouraged him to write more
小题5:According to the writer of the passage,a good writer could         .
