It was the break time, and the students was playing on the playground. Jack was playing the basketball with a group of boys while Lily told him that the headmaster wanted to see him. Jack seemed confusing. He thought, “I did something wrong. Why did the headmaster ask me to his office?” Then he walked there nervously. In his surprise, the headmaster praised him, as he learned from some teachers that Jack usually volunteered to helping others. The headmaster told Jack he had set example to other students. Heard that, Jack was very happy. He promised the headmaster that he will continue to be a caring student.

Researchers around the world have been trying their hand at making better use of the huge amount of wind energy available in nature to produce clean energy. Apart from this, studies are being carried out to harness(利用) usable wind energy produced by man-made technologies.
One useful source identified by Indian inventor Santosh Pradhan about two years ago is a speeding train, which produces fierce wind that can be transformed into electricity.
According to Pradhan’s proposal, with a few small improvements in existing trains running in Mumbai, the largest city in India, at least 10,000 megawatts(兆瓦) of electricity could be harvested each day.
Building on this principle, designers Ale Leonetti Luparinia and Qian Jiang from Yanko Design have created a device(装置) called T-Box that harnesses wind energy from speeding trains.
T-Box can be placed within the railway tracks. It is half-buried underground between the concrete sleepers(水泥枕木), which does not disturb the normal train operating at all. According to Yanko, around 150 T-Boxes can be fitted along a 1,000-meter railway track.
A train running at a speed of 200 kph can produce winds blowing at 15 miles a second. Based on this calculation, 150 T-Boxes can produce 2.6 KWH of electricity per day. The T-Box’s design won a silver medal in last year’s Lite-On Awards and was exhibited last summer at the Xue Xue Institute in Taipei, Taiwan Province.
Though the figures look impressive, it is important to remember that the design is still at a conceptual stage and hasn’t taken into account issues such as pieces of waste material produced by the device and the efforts and costs involved in the maintenance(维护) of the device.
We can expect the technology to see the light of the day only after it clears these issues. If so, rail travel, one of the greenest forms of travel, will become greener and more energy-efficient.
1.What can we learn about T-Box?
A. It will be fitted on the trains.
B. It is based on Pradhan’s idea.
C. It can turn electricity into light.
D. It was invented by an Indian scientist.
2.How much electricity can be produced per day by T-Boxes along a railway track of 100km?
A. 260 KWH. B. 2.6 KWH.
C. 150 KWH. D. 1.5 KWH.
3. It can be concluded from the last two paragraphs that ______.
A. T-Box has proved to be effective in harvesting wind
B. the maintenance of T-Box will be costly
C. there is much to do about T-Box
D. T-Box will come into use soon
4.According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. The Indian inventor Santosh Pradhan invented the speeding train.
B. The T-Box’s design won a silver medal in Lite-On Awards last year.[来源:Z
C. Rail travel has become one of the energy-efficient technologies in the world.
D. The India harvests 10,000 megawatts of electricity each day on average.
5.The passage is mainly written to _______.
A. encourage more people to travel by train
B. explain the advantages of electricity
C. tell readers how to save energy and money
D. introduce a new invention to readers

In colleges around the country, most students are also workers.
The reality of college can be pretty different from the images presented in movies and television. Instead of the students who wake up late, party all the time, and study only before exams, many colleges are full of students with pressing schedules of not just classes and activities, but real jobs, too.
This isn’t a temporary phenomenon.The share of working students has been on the rise since the 1970s, and one-fifth of students work yearround. About one-quarter of those who work while attending school have both a full-courseload and a full-time job. The arrangement can help pay for tuition (学费) and living costs, obviously. And there’s value in it beyond the direct cause: such jobs can also be critical for developing important professional and social skills that make it easier to land a job after graduation. With many employers looking for students with already-developed skill sets, on-the-job training while in college can be the best way to ensure a job later on.
But it’s not all upside. Even full-time work may not completely cover the cost of tuition and living expenses. The study notes that if a student worked a full-time job at the federal minimum wage, they would earn just over $15,000 each year, certainly not enough to pay for tuition, room, and board at many colleges without some serious financial aid. That means that though they’re sacrificing time away from the classroom, many working students will still graduate with at least some debt. And working fulltime can reduce the chance that students will graduate at all, by cutting into the time available for studying and attending classes.
There is little reward for attending but not finishing college. Students who wind up leaving school because of difficulty in managing work and class are likely to find themselves stuck in some of the same jobs they might have gotten if they hadn’t gone at all. The difficulty of working too much while in school can create a cycle that pushes students further into debt without receiving any of the financial or career benefits.
1.According to the passage, the reality of college students is that ______.
A. they throw parties a lot
B. they stay up late every night
C. they pay no attention to exams
D. they work besides attending classes
2.What is the indirect cause of an increasing number of working students?
A.The need of developing social networks.
B.The lack of summer jobs for young adults.
C.The chance of finding a job after graduation.
D.The expenses of high tuition and living costs.
3.We can learn from the passage that ______.
A. working students are more likely to finish college
B. students can cover their college expenses through working
C. students receive a huge reward for managing work and class
D. dropping out of college may not help students get career benefits
4.What is the best title for the passage?
A. The Difficulties of Landing a Job
B. The Struggle of Work-School Balance
C. The Reward of Working While Studying
D. The Images of Working College Students

LONDON—Manchester is Britain’s fattest city, a survey for “Men’s Health” has found, beating Glasgow for the first time since the magazine started examining the issue three years ago.
Editor Pete Muir said the survey had looked at a variety of factors(因素) from gym membership to heart disease rates to find the fattest city. “Manchester has more fast food restaurants than anywhere else in the UK,” he told Reuters. “People are taking the easy choice —eating and then just sitting in front of the TV.”
Manchester’s problem is part of a wider trend(趋势). On Thursday, the Office of National Statistics (ONS) blamed(责备) a lack of exercise and poor diet for a fifth of adult Britons being obese(过度肥胖的). “Obesity is a major risky factor related to heart disease, diabetes and premature death(糖尿病和早亡),” said an ONS survey. “None of the 108 young men in the survey reported eating five portions of fruit or vegetables on average each day.”
In Manchester, the head of the city’s public health programs said he did not believe that they were necessarily the fattest city, but that they did have problems and were aiming to address them. Social deprivation(贫困) was a major factor. “One of the myths is that the stressed-out(压力大的) rich businessman is the one who is overweight,” David Regan told Reuters. “In fact, it is the poor areas that have the most problems. We aim not to be the fattest but the fittest city but we have a long way to go.”
Second in the survey is Stoke-on-Trent, followed by Liverpool, Swansea and Leicester. Glasgow is sixth.
1. Manchester took the place of ____________ and became Britain’s fattest city.
A. Liverpool B. London
C. Stoke-on-Trent D. Glasgow
2.Obesity may lead to the following EXCEPT _______________.
A. heart disease B. diabetes
C. premature death D. a lack of exercise
3.David Regan is most probably _________________.
A. the reporter from Reuters
B. an official of ONS
C. the head of Manchester’s public health programs
D. a rich businessman who is overweight
4. This article is most probably taken from ________________.
A. a newspaper B. a science book
C. a novel D. a biography (传记)

We Chinese are not big huggers. A handshake or a pat on the shoulder is enough to express our friendship or affection (love) to one another. So when our newly-acquainted Western friends reach out in preparation for a hug, some of us feel awkward. Many questions go through our head. Where should I put my arms? Under their armpits or around their neck? What distance should I keep? Should our chests touch?
It’s even more difficult with friends from some European countries. Should I kiss them on the cheek while hugging? Which side? Or is it both cheeks? Which side should I start on?
But it isn’t just people from cultures that are conservative(保守的) in expressing physical contact who find hugging confusing．Hugs can cause discomfort or even distress(pain) in people who value their personal space．
In a recent article for The Wall Street Journal, US psychologist Peggy Drexler said that although the US remains a “medium touch” culture, Americans do seem to be hugging more. From politicians to celebrities（famous people）, hugs are given to friends, strangers and enemies alike; whether they are willing or not; and the public has been quick to pick up the practice.
Public figures know that nothing expresses likeability(亲和力)like a good hug. US First Lady Michelle Obama has put her arms around icy foreign leaders like Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev and the Queen of England on the latter occasion actually breaking the rule of royal manners.
But not all are grateful to be embraced(hugged), even by the most influential and famous. To them, any hug is offensive(冒犯的) if it’s not sincere.
Amanda Hess, writing for US magazine Slate, says public figures should stop imposing（强加） hugs on everyone they meet. For them, a hug is rarely a gesture of sincere fellowship, compassion or affection. It’s all part of a show. Hugs are falsely intimate power plays used by public figures to establish their social dominance(主导) over those in their grasp.
Cecilia Walden, a British journalist writing for The Telegraph who lives in New York, holds the same opinion. “Power-hugging”, as she calls it, is “an offender dressed up as kindness”. It has become a fashion in the US where “bosses are already embracing their staff (either shortly before or after firing them), men and women ,their friends or enemies, in a thousand cheating displays of unity”.
1.From the first third paragraphs, we can see that ___________.
A. we Chinese people don’t know how to hug
B hugs can bring pressure to people when used improperly
C. people from European countries often get puzzled about hugging
D. people in Western countries seldom use hugs to express their physical closeness
2.The example of US first lady Michelle Obama is given to show that __________.
A. hugs are forbidden in England
B. she is much liked by American people
C. Americans hold a “medium touch ”culture
D. public figures know hugging functions well in public
3.Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined phrase “pick up the practice”?
A．Follow the trend．
B．Enjoy the medium touch culture．
C．Give hugs to enemies．
D．Resist physical touch．
4.What can be the best title of this passage?
A. Hugs, tricky affair? B. Hugs, vital or not?
C. Hugs and public figures D. Hugs and power

If you have ever been discouraged because of failure, please read on. Often achieving what you plan to do isn’t the important thing. 1.
Two brothers decided to dig a deep hole behind their house. While they were working, a few older boys stopped by to watch. “What are you doing?” asked one of the visitors. “We plan to dig a hole all the way through the earth!” one of the brothers volunteered excitedly.
The older boys began to laugh, telling the younger ones that digging a hole all the way through the earth was impossible. After a long silence, one of the diggers picked up a jar full of spiders, worms and a wide variety of insects. 2. Then he said quietly and confidently, “Even if we don’t.”
3. And that is what a goal is for –to cause us to move in the direction we have chosen, in other words, to have us digging!
But not every goal will be fully achieved. Not every job will end successfully. Not every relationship will endure. Not every hope will come to pass. Not every love will last. 4.
So when you fail to reach your aim, perhaps you can say, “Yes, but look at what I found along the way! Look at the wonderful things which have come into my life because I tried to do something !” It is in the digging that life is lived. 5.
A. He broke the jar into pieces.
B. He opened the jar and showed the wonderful things contained in it to the laughing visitors.
C. Let me explain.
D. Not every dream will come true.
E. Their goal was far too high, but it did cause them to dig.
F. Here are some reasons for you.
G. And I believe in the end it is joy in the journey that truly matters.

On August 16, 1977, Elvis Presley saved me.
The previous afternoon, I played with my six-year-old peers in Heather Peters’ backyard. I was enjoying my cake, when Heather asked me where my sleeping bag was. Only then did I know this party was a sleepover. The word “sleep-over” to a six-year-old bed-wetter is like what “cancer” means to an adult. But what if I told them I was a bed-wetter? At least with cancer, people gather at your bedside instead of running from it.
I thought of a way to escape. I would explain that I needed my mother's permission to spend the nights. But as I called my Mom, Heather stood beside me to listen. She granted permission! Then I would be sleeping in the same living room as the other girls. I didn't bring my own pajamas (睡衣)，so Mrs. Peters offered me Heather's pajamas.
As the other girls drifted into their sweet dreams, I tried to stay awake. “Do I need to go again? I'll stay up to go one more time.. .”.Of course , I finally fell asleep.
The next morning , I was the first to wake up. I was warm! I lay in panic for what seemed like hours before the other girls started to wake up. I did the only thing I could do — I pretended that the bed-wetting didn't happen. I got up, took off Heather's pajamas and changed into my clothes like the other girls.
Mrs. Peters walked into the room, and before she could say anything, she stepped right onto the pile of my wet pajamas. My heart stopped as I watched her face burn red. “WHO DID THIS?” She screamed, with a look so frightening. Should I answer? And that was when it happened — Mr. Peters came in and grabbed his wife , ‘‘Elvis Presley died!”
The news of the King's death overtook Mrs. Peters, and I ,was spared. I got home without the other girls knowing what had happened.
1.The author had to spend the night at Peters' because ________.
A. she enjoyed her cake there
B. the famous singer Elvis Presley died that night
C. her mother allowed her to do so
D. It was a routine of the party
2.Mrs. Peters got angry because ________.
A. she found the wet pajamas
B. Elvis Presley passed away
C. her husband was rude to her
D. all the girls slept at her house
3.From the story, we know Mrs. Peters was ________.
A. a bad-tempered woman
B. a fan of Elvis Presley
C. a woman for perfection
D. a woman who hated to wash pajamas
4.The passage is mainly about ________.
A. an embarrassing childhood incident
B. a fan-purchasing experience
