    The day when the jobs were handed out was one of the most exciting moments for all the children in the class. It took place during the first week of the term. Every kid was given a job for which they would be responsible for the rest of that school year.
    Some jobs were more interesting than others, and the children were eager to be given one of the best ones. When giving them out, the teacher took into account which pupils had been most responsible during the previous year. During the previous year Rita had carried out the teacher’s instructions perfectly. All the children knew Rita would be given the best job.
    But there was a big surprise. Each child received a normal job. But Rita’s job was very different. She was given a little box containing some sand and one ant. Though the teacher insisted that this ant was very special, Rita felt disappointed. Most of her classmates felt sorry for her. Even her father became very angry with the teacher and he encouraged Rita to pay no attention to this insignificant pet. However, Rita preferred to show the teacher her error by doing something special with that job of little interest.
    Rita started investigating all about her little ant and gave the ant the best food, and it grew quite a bit bigger.
    One day, a man, who looked very important, came into their classroom and declared, “Your class has been chosen to accompany me, this summer, on a journey to the tropical rain forest, where we will investigate all kinds of insects. Among all the schools of this region, your class has best cared for the little ant.”
    That day the school was filled with joy and celebration. Everyone thanked Rita for having been so patient and responsible. And many children learnt that to be given the most important task you have to know how to be responsible even in what are the smallest tasks.
    小题1:What did the teacher base his decision on when giving out jobs to the children?
    A．Their characters and interests.
    B．Their class performance during the previous year.
    C．Their working performance during the previous year.
    D．Their ability of managing their accounts during the previous year.
    小题2:What does the underlined sentence mean?
    A．Each child got an important job.
    B．Each child got an interesting job.
    C．The perfect student got the job of everyone’s preference．
    D．The most responsible student got the job of least interest.
    小题3:What is Rita’s attitude to her father’s suggestion?
    A．Negative.B．Uncertain.C．Totally positive.D．Acceptive.
    小题4:We can infer that the man who made the declaration is a _________.
    A．hunterB．directorC．biologistD．principal
    小题5:What would be the best title for the passage?
    A．Never complain about life.
    B．Small tasks can lead to fortunes.
    C．Men are best known by their friends.
    D．Responsibility and intelligence bring good luck.

    小题1:C
    小题2:D
    小题3:A
    小题4:C
    小题5:B

    试题分析：本文叙述了只有认真做好一些小事，才有可能赢得更重要的机会。在班里每个孩子会被给予一份工作，要求他们在这一学期对其负责，老师在分配任务时会考虑到孩子们去年的表现。Rita表现最突出并没有得到最好的工作，Rita的工作是照顾蚂蚁，她感到很失望，但是她还是认真地去做她通过调查了解了很多关于蚂蚁的知识。正好学校组织一次旅游去研究昆虫，她学到的知识用上了。
    小题1:细节理解题。根据When giving them out, the teacher took into account which pupils had been most responsible during the previous year.根据在过去在一年里学习表现，故选C。
    小题2:句意理解题。根据All the children knew Rita would be given the best job of all可知，在孩子们中间Rita表现“最突出(stood out)”，所以所有的孩子都认为她会被给予最好的工作。Each child received a normal job. But Rita’s job was very different.可知，Rita并没有得到最好的工作，所以“令人意外的事情(surprise)”发生了。所以最负责任的学生得到了那份工作是最没有兴趣的，故选D。
    小题3:细节理解题。根据Even her father became very angry with the teacher and he encouraged Rita to pay no attention to this insignificant pet. However, Rita preferred to show the teacher her error by doing something special with that job of little interest.她没有听她的父亲的，故选A。
    小题4:推理判断题。根据One day, a man, who looked very important, came into their classroom and declared, “Your class has been chosen to accompany me, this summer, on a journey to the tropical rain forest, where we will investigate all kinds of insects. 他可能是生物学家，因为他也要参加这次活动，故选C。
    小题5:标题归纳题。根据短文的内容都跟这次任务有关，故选B。
    点评：标题的最大特点就是要体现主题思想,因此标题必须具备高度概括性, 一看到标题, 往往要使读者知道文章主要介绍什么内容。尽管标题是对文章内容的概括和总结,但也不能太过于抽象、乏化、笼统, 而失去对文章具体内容的指向性, 否则标题就不具有个性, 无论你将标题阅读多少遍也无法弄清文章到底是介绍哪一方面的具体内容。标题是文章首先映入读者眼帘的内容,为打动读者的内心, 标题必须使用精彩的语言。这种语言要么情感浓烈, 真挚感人; 要么新颖时尚, 引领潮流; 要么短小精悍, 言简意赅; 要么对称和谐, 丰满匀称, 给人美感, 醒目。

    This is no joke. Kelly Katrina Hildebrandt, 20, and Kelly Carl Hildebrandt, 24, are expecting just over 100 guests at a(an)   21  at a church, where they will become husband and wife.
    Their modern romance was a   22  made in cyberspace（网络空间）.

At the time, Kelly Hildebrandt, of Lubbock, Texas, was the only one matched. So she sent him a   26 . She said, “Hi. We had the same name.

    For the next three months the two   28  e-mails.   29  he knew it, occasional phone calls turned into daily chats, sometimes   30  hours. He   31  her in Florida after a few months and fell head over heels.
    “I thought it was fun,” he said of that first online meet. “I had no   32  that it would lead to this.”
    Months after Kelly Hildebrandt sent her first e-mail, she found a diamond engagement   33   hidden in treasure box on a beach in December. “I totally think that it’s all God’s   34  ,” Kelly Katrina Hildebrandt said. “He planned it out just   35   .”
    She's a student at a local community college. He works in financial   36 . They plan to make their home in South Florida.
    There was also some uncertainty   37  how to phrase their wedding invitations, so they decided to include their   38  names. But   39  confusion likely won't carry on past the husband and wife, as Kelly Katrina Hildebrandt said there are no plans to pass along the name to their future   40 . “No,” she said. “We're definitely not going to name our kids Kelly.”

    John H. Johnson was born in a black family in Arkansas city in 1918. His father died in an accident when John was six. He was reaching the high school age, but his hometown offered no high school for blacks.
    Fortunately he had a strong-willed (意志坚强的) caring mother. John remembered that his mother told him many times, “Son, you can be anything you want really to be if you just believe.”She told him not to depend on others, including his mother. “You have to earn success, ”she said. “All the people who work hard don’t succeed, but the only people who do succeed are those who work hard.”
    These words came from a woman with less than a third grade education. She also knew that believing and hard work don’t mean everything. So she worked hard as a cook for two years to save enough to take her son, who was then 15, to Chicago.
    Chicago in 1933 was not the promised land that black southerners were looking for. John’s mother and stepfather could not find work. But here John could go to school, and here he learned the power of words—as an editor of the newspaper and yearbook at Du Sable High School His wish was to publish a magazine for blacks.
    While others discouraged him, John’s mother offered him more words to live by.“Nothing beats a failure but a try. ”She also let him pawn(典当)her furniture to get the $ 500 he needed to start the Negro magazine.
    It is natural that difficulties and failures followed John closely until he became very successful. He always keeps his mother’s words in mind.“Son, failure is not in your vocabulary!”
    Now John H. Johnson is one of the 400 richest people in America—worth $ 150 million.
    小题1:John’s mother decided to move to Chicago because _____.
    A．his father died when John was very young
    B．life was too hard for them to stay on in their hometown
    C．John needed more education badly
    D．there were no schools for Negroes in their hometown
    小题2:John’s mother_____________________
    A．didn’t believe in or depend on others
    B．thought one could be whatever one wanted to be
    C．believed one would succeed without working hard
    D．thought no one could succeed without working hard
    小题3:The underlined sentence“Nothing beats a failure but a try. ”means _____.
    A．if you try, you would succeed
    B．a failure is difficult to beat, even if you try
    C．a try is always followed by a failure
    D．no failure can be beaten unless you try
    小题4:The story mainly tells us _____.
    A．how John H. Johnson became successful
    B．about the mental (心理的) support John’s mother gave him
    C．about the importance of a good education
    D．about the key to success for blacks

    The simplest way to say it is this: I believe in my mother. My __1__ began when I was just a kid．I __2__ becoming a doctor.
    　　My mother was a domestic．Through her work, she observed that __3__ people spent a lot more time reading than they __4_ watching television. She announced that my brother and I __5__ watch two to three pre-selected TV programs during the week. With our free time, we had to read two books each from the Detroit Public Library and __6__ to her written book reports. She would mark them up with check marks and highlights. Years later we realized her marks were a __7__. My mother was illiterate.
    　　When I entered high school I was a(n) __8__, but not for long. I wanted the fancy clothes. I wanted to __9__ with the guys. I went from being an A-student to a B-student to a C-student. One night my mother came home from __10__ her various jobs and I complained about not having enough Italian knit shirts. She said, "Okay, I'll give you all the money I make this week scrubbing floors and cleaning bathrooms, and you can buy __11__ food and pay the bills. With everything __12__, you can have all the Italian knit shirts you want." I was very __13__ with that arrangement but once I got through allocating money, there was __14__ left. I realized my mother was a financial genius to be able to __15__ a roof over our heads and any kind of food on the table, __16__ buy clothes. I also realized that immediate satisfaction wasn't going to get me anywhere. Success required intellectual preparation. I went back to my _17__ and became an A-student again, and eventually I __18__ my dream and I became a doctor.
    　　My story is really my mother's story-a woman with __19__ formal education or property who used her position as a parent to change the lives of many people around the globe. There is no job __20__ than parenting. This I believe.

    Where was I? The room was dark and quiet. My head hurt really badly. I shouted, “Help! Help! Can anybody help me?”
    After a while somebody came in. The room was so dark that I couldn’t see his face clearly. The man turned on the light and said with a sharp voice, “Ah! Sweetie, do you still remember who I am?” I was shocked. Oh, my God! I cried, “You are Michael Zey, the man I charged with murder! Why are you here? You should be in prison!”
    “You never thought about the result of charging a gang（犯罪团伙） leader, did you? Because of you, I was in prison for 15 years. You ruined my life!” His voice was very cold. My face was pale with fear. He was here to take revenge（报复）!
    “Please, let me go! Don't hurt me! Please!” I asked him. “Dr. Calment, you are smart enough to know it is impossible. Now, I give you two choices. One is shooting your head. It is the quickest way. The other is cremation（火葬）. Your husband and you will be together forever. It’s quite romantic. Don't you think?” He spoke angrily. “What? My husband? He is innocent!” I shouted at him.
    Suddenly, he took hold of my head and said, “You will pay for what you have done to me.” He took out a gun from his bag.
    “Help! Help! Can anybody help me?”
