    In 1943, when I was 4, my parents moved from Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, to Fairbanks, Alaska, where adventure was never very far away.

    We arrived in the summer, just in time to enjoy the midnight sun. All that sunlight was fantastic for Mom's vegetable garden. Working in the garden at midnight tended to throw her timing off, so she didn't care much about my bedtime.

    Dad was a Railway Express agent and Mom was his clerk. That left me in a mess. I usually managed to find some trouble to get into. Once I had a little fire going in the dirt basement of a hotel. I had tried to light a barrel (桶) of paint but couldn't really get a good fire going. The smoke got pretty bad, though, and when I made my exit, a crowd and the police were there to greet me. The policemen took my matches and drove me home.

    Mom and Dad were occupied/busy in the garden and Dad told the police to keep me, and they did! I had a tour of the prison before Mom rescued me. 1 hadn't turned 5 yet.

    As I entered kindergarten, the serious cold began to set in. Would it surprise you to know that I soon left part of my tongue on a metal handrail(栏杆) at school?

    As for Leonhard Seppala, famous as a dog sledder (驾雪橇者), I think I knew him well because I was taken for a ride with his white dog team one Sunday. At the time I didn't realize what a superstar he was, but I do remember the ride well. I was wrapped heavily and well sheltered (保护) from the freezing and blowing weather.

    In 1950, we moved back to Coeur d'Alene, but we got one more Alaskan adventure when Leonhard invited us eight years later by paying a visit to Idaho to attend a gathering of former neighbors of Alaska.

    1. What can be inferred about the author's family?

    A. His father was a cruel man.

    B. His parents didn't love him.

    C. His mother didn't have any jobs.

    D. His parents used to be very busy.

    2.What happened when the author was 4?

    A. He learned to smoke.

    B. He was locked in a basement.

    C. He was arrested（拘捕） by the police.

    D. He nearly caused a fire accident.

    3.Which of the following is true?

    A. Leonhard was good at driving dog sleds.

    B. The author spent his whole childhood in Alaska.

    C. Leonhard often visited the author's family after 1950.

    D. The author suffered a lot while taking the dog sled in Alaska.

    4.What is the author's purpose of writing the text?

    A. To describe the extreme weather of Alaska.

    B. To look back on his childhood with adventures.

    C. To express how much he misses Leonhard.

    D. To show off his pride in making trouble.

    Too much TV-watching can harm children’s ability to learn and even reduce their chances of getting a college degree, new studies suggest in the latest effort to examine the effects of television on children.

    One of the studies looked at nearly 400 northern California third-graders. Those with TVs in their bedrooms scored about eight points lower on math and language arts tests than children without bedroom TVs.

    A second study ,looking at nearly 1000 grown-ups in New Zealand, found lower education levels among 26-year –olds who had watched lots of TV during childhood. But the results don’t prove that TV is the cause and don't rule out that already poorly motivated youngsters (年轻人）may watch lots of TV.

    Their study measured the TV habits of 26-year-olds between ages5 and 15. These with college degrees had watched an average of less than two hours of TV per week night during childhood, compared with an average of more than 2 1/2 hours for those who had no education beyond high school.

    In the California study, children with TVs in their rooms but no computer at home scored the lowest while those with no bedroom TV but who had home computers scored the highest.

    While this study does not prove that bedroom TV sets caused the lower scores, it adds to accumulating findings that children shouldn't have TVs in their bedrooms

    1.According to the California study, the low-scoring group might _________.

    A. have watched a lot of TV

    B. not be interested in math

    C. be unable to go to college

    D. have had computers in their bedrooms

    2.What is the researchers' understanding of the New Zealand study results?

    A. Poorly motivated 26-year-olds watch more TV.

    B. Habits of TV watching reduce learning interest.

    C. TV watching leads to lower education levels of the 15-year-olds.

    D. The connection between TV and education levels is difficult to explain

    3.What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?

    A. More time should be spent on computers.

    B. Children should be forbidden from watching TV.

    C. 'IV sets shouldn't be allowed in children's bedrooms,

    D. Further studies on high-achieving students should be done

    4.What would be the best title for this text?

    A. Computers or Television

    B. Effects of Television on Children

    C. Studies on TV and College Education

    D. Television and Children's Learning Habits

    Is it possible that the sinking of the Titanic was caused by a ghost? A plot of the story below is true ... but did it really happen quite like this?

    Our story begins not in the icy cold waters of the North Atlantic, but rather thousands of miles away in Egypt. It is here, perhaps, that we can find the start of the mystery (谜) of the Titanic, in the year 1910, in the great city of Cairo.

    One day, a famous professor of Egyptian history called Douglas Murray was staying in Cairo, when he was contacted by an American adventurer.

    The American had something unusual to offer Murray, something that was certain to thrill him: a beautiful ancient Egyptian mummy case, containing the mummy of an Egyptian queen. It was over 3,000 years old, but in beautiful condition — gold, with bright paintings on it. Murray was delighted with both the object and the asking?price. He gave the man a cheque immediately.

    The cheque was never cashed. That evening the American adventurer died. For his part, Murray arranged to have the treasure sent back to Britain. However, it was not long before he learnt more about the beautiful mummy case: On the walls of the tomb in which it had been discovered, there were messages which warned of terrible consequences to anyone who broke into the tomb. Murray was disbelieving of these warnings until a few days later, when a gun he was holding exploded in his hand, shattering his arm. The arm had to be cut off.

    After the accident, Murray decided to return to his homeland. On the return journey, two of his companions died mysteriously, and two servants who had handled the mummy also passed away. The now?terrified Murray decided he would get rid of the cursed case as soon as he arrived in London. A lady he knew named Janet Jones said she would like it, so he gave it to her. Shortly afterwards, Jones' mother died, and she herself caught a strange disease. She tried returning the mummy, but naturally Murray refused it. In the end, it was presented to the British Museum.

    Even in the museum, the mummy apparently continued to cause strange events. A museum photographer died shortly after taking pictures of the new exhibit, and a manager also died for no apparent reason. In the end, the British Museum decided to get rid of the mummy too. They sold it to a collector in New York.

    At the start of April 1912, arrangements for the transfer were complete, and the mummy began the journey to its new home. But the New Yorker never received the mummy or its case. For when the Titanic sank, one of the objects in its strong?room was the mummy case. Or so they say.

    1.In Paragraph 5, the underlined word “cursed” is closest in meaning to ________.

    A．forgotten B．uncommon

    C．expensive D．unlucky

    2.In what order did the following events occur?

    a．The case was given to the British Museum.

    b．Janet Jones caught a mysterious illness.

    c．Murray's arm was cut off.

    d．The mummy case was sold to an American.

    e．A man who took a picture of the case died.

    f．Warnings were written on the tomb's walls.

    A．f，c，b，a，e，d B．c，f，b，a，e，d

    C．d，f，b，c，a，e D．f，a，c，b，e，d

    3.According to the passage, where is the Egyptian mummy now?

    A．At the British Museum. B．In New York.

    C．In Egypt. D．Under the sea.

    4.What is the main purpose of this passage?

    A．To entertain readers with a story of mystery.

    B．To introduce an important historical event to readers.

    C．To warn readers about the dangers of mummies' curses.

    D．To inform readers about the true cause of the Titanic's sinking.
