I was constantly telling them to put them inside skirts. There were so many keys. It never came to my mind what they meant.” 3.

She and her husband began talking to the children. They offered the suggestion:

China began relaxing the one-child policy in January 2014, allowing couples to have a second baby if the mother or father was an only child.

The state-run Xinhua news agency reported on Thursday that a move that would thoroughly relax the country's one-child policy that had been eased in recent years would come out sooner or later.

China, now a nation of more than 1.3 billion people, practiced a policy of one child per couple to control population growth in the 1970s. The move was viewed as a major liberalization of the three-decades-old restriction. Nationwide, nearly 1 million couples eligible(合格的)under the new rules had applied to have a second child, state media reported at the time. Health officials had said that the policy would lead to as many as 2 million new births when the policy change was first announced.

Regarded as one of the English language’s most gifted poets, John Keats wrote poetry that concentrated on imagery, human nature, and philosophy. Although Keats didn’t receive much formal literary education, his own studies and passion brought him much success. Additionally, his own life situation influenced his poetry greatly.

Growing up as a young boy in London in a lower middle-class family, the young John didn’t attend a private school, but went to a public one. His teachers and his family’s friends regarded him as an optimistic boy who favored playing and fighting much more than minding his studies. After his father’s death in the early 1800s, followed by his mother’s passing due to tuberculosis (肺结核), he began viewing life differently. He wanted to escape the world and did so by reading anything he could get his hands on.

At around the age of 16, the teenage John Keats began studying under a surgeon so that he too might become a doctor. However, his literary appetite had taken too much of his fancy, especially with his addiction to the poetry of Ehmund Spenser. He was able to have his first full poem published in the Examiner in 1816, entitled O Solitude! If I Must With Thee Dwell. Within two months in 1817, Keats had written an entire volume of poetry, but was sharply criticized by a magazine. However, the negative response didn’t stop his pursuit of rhythm (韵律).

John Keats’ next work was Endymion, which was published in May 1818. The story involves a shepherd who falls in love with the moon goddess and leads him on an adventure of one boy’s hope to overcome the limitations of being human. Following Endymion, however, he tried something more narrative-based and wrote Isabella. During this time, John Keats began seeing his limitations in poetry due to his own limit in life experiences. He would have to have the “knowledge” associated with his poems. His next work was Hyperion that would attempt to combine all that he learned. However, a bout (发作) with tuberculosis while visiting Italy would keep him from his work and eventually take his life in 1821.

1. John Keats’ attitude towards life changed because of _________.

A. his early education from school

B. the deaths of his parents

C. Edmund Spenser’s poetry

D. the criticism of a magazine

2. What is the common thing between John Keats and his mother?

A. They died of the same disease.

B. They had a bad childhood

C. They read many books.

D. They showed strong interest in poetry

3.While pursuing his dream of becoming a poet at first, John Keats was _________.

A. determined B. experienced C. knowledgeable D. impatient

4. What do we know from the passage?

A. Keats received little education at school.

B. Keats once had a chance of becoming a doctor.

C. In 1816 Keats spent two months writing a poem.

D. Endymion was about a real love story.

For thousands of years, people thought of glass as something beautiful to look at. Only recently have they come to think of it as something to look through. Stores display their goods in large glass windows. Glass bottles and jars that hold food and drink allow us to see the contents. Glass is used to make eyeglasses, microscopes, telescopes, and many other extremely useful and necessary objects.

Until the Second World War, most of the glass used for optical instruments was imported from Europe. However, during the war Americans could not get European glass, and they were forced to make their own. As a result, new kinds of glasses were developed that had been previously unknown. These new effects were achieved by mixing other chemical elements with the sand. Some of these new glasses are very strong and can resist many kinds of shocks. Legend has it that a very hard glass was invented by a Roman who showed his discovery to the Emperor. When the Emperor saw the glass he feared that it would become more valuable than gold and sliver, making his treasure worthless. Therefore, he had the glassmaker killed, and the secret was not discovered again for hundreds of years.

In the present century, safety glass was invented for use in modern cars and planes. Safety glass is made by placing a layer of plastic between two layers of plate glass. When the outside layer of glass is broken, the pieces do not scatter and injure people. Some glass of the type is strong enough to resist bullets.

Although in recent years plastics have replaced glass under conditions where glass might be easily broken, there are new uses being developed , for the greatest advantage of glass is that its component parts are inexpensive and can be found all over the world.

1.With the passage of time, glass _________.

A. is regarded as transparent

B. is no longer seen as decoration

C. is used to make things look pleasant

D. is widely used to replace steel in making containers

2.Why did Americans make their own glass during the Second World War?

A. The war blocked the way of glass import.

B. They refused to use the European glass.

C. The glass made in Europe was out of date.

D. They were able to make a new kind of glass.

3. By telling the legend, the author wants to _________.

A. prove that the Roman was the first inventor of hard glass

B. support that the Americans were as clever as the Romans

C. give some interesting information about hard glass

D. provide a historical event concerned with hard glass

4.New uses of glass are being developed on the ground that _________.

A. glass is not as safe as plastics

B. glass is not as strong and durable as plastics

C. glass is easily obtainable and inexpensive

D. glass is more and more widely used

Last Monday, my classmate and I saw some people gathering around in our way to school. In order to see what was happening, so we got close enough and found an old woman lie on the ground. The people around her just stand there, watching and chatting. We were worried about her and decided to take her to the hospital immediate. It turned out that she lost her balance but fell. She had to stay in hospital, so we called her family. Soon his son came and thanked us by offering us money. We refused money and left. Hurried to school, we found we were late. To our delight though, our teacher praised us for that we had done and we felt very proud.
