As it is known to all, travelling can be an excited experience. Let me give you some advice that you have to pay attention. You can find out more about your destination by surfing the Internet after you set out. You needn’t take too many cash. Since it can be very convenient to pay in cash, using cheques are much more reliable. In addition, it will be wise for you to take an umbrella in case it should rain. And if you are to travel abroad, you’d better learn anything about the cultural diversity in order to avoid any unnecessary embarrassment.

A dog can’t speak words, but it can “talk”. It has feelings just as you do. At times it may feel angry or afraid. Watch a dog closely. You can see what it is trying to tell you. When you are afraid, you may look down shyly. A fearful dog looks away from you. It may run away too. When you are angry with people, you stare at them and press your lips together. An angry dog also stares. Sometimes the hair along its back stands up.

Do you feel guilty when you have done something you shouldn’t? Dogs can feel guilty, too. At times when I come home, my dog gives me a guilty look. Then I know he’s done something wrong.

Dogs need love and attention. Some dogs are very unhappy when they are left alone for a long time. Some dogs even snap(撕咬) if they don’t get enough attention.

You may have a dog or you may know a dog. Treat it well if you want to have fun with it. Play with it. Take it for a walk. Don’t order it round too much. Try not to punish it one time and not the next for doing the same thing. Always remember, a dog has needs and feelings just as you do. Talk to a dog, it’ll talk to you, too.

Mr. Black was the manager of a hotel in Atlanta. One weekend all of the hotels were full because of a large business meeting being held in the city. On Sunday night, three men came into Mr. Black’s hotel and asked for rooms. Mr. Black told them that there were no more rooms available. The men didn’t know what to do because they had no place to stay in.

Mr. Black wanted to help them. He remembered that there was an empty room at the far end of the first floor — Room 112. It was a very small room, and had rarely been used as a guest room before. So, he asked the three men if they would mind sharing that small room. They replied that they would be very satisfied so long as there was a room for them to stay in for the night.

Mr. Black then told them that the room would cost them $ 30 in total. On hearing this, each of the three men gave Mr. Black $ 10 before they left for their room.

However, Mr. Black soon began to think that $ 30 was really too much for that small room. He called his assistant over and said, “Here is $ 5. Give it back to the three men in Room 112. Each of them paid me $10. That’s too much.”

The assistant took the money. While he was on the way to that small room, he thought, “How can three men divide $ 5? I’ll give each of them only $ 1 and keep the $ 2 left to myself. The men will be happy to get anything back, and I can also make some money that way. After all, Mr. Black will never know anything about it.” So, the assistant returned only $1 to each of the three men.

Each man had first paid $ 10. After the assistant returned $1 to him, each man had actually paid only $ 9. There were three men. $ 9×3=$27. The assistant kept $ 2. $ 27 + $ 2= $ 29. Where is the missing dollar?

1.Why didn’t Mr. Black offer Room 112 to the three men at first?

A. The key had been lost.

B. It was too small for three men.

C. No one had stayed there before.

D. It was not bright enough.

2.How much did Mr. Black first ask each man for the room?

A. $ 30.B. $15. C. $10. D. $9.

3.How were the manager and his assistant in behavior?

A. The manager was honest but the assistant was not.

B. The manager worked hard, but the assistant was lazy.

C. The assistant was clever but the manager was not.

D. The manager did not know how to make money, but the assistant did.

4.Where is the missing dollar?

A. The three men took it.

B. The manager hid it secretly.

C. The assistant kept it.

D. There is no missing dollar.

In general, people talk about two groups of colors: warm colors and cool colors. Researchers in psychology think that there are also two groups of people: people who prefer warm colors and people who prefer cool colors.

The warm colors are red, orange and yellow. Where there are warm colors and a lot of light, people usually want to be active. People think that red, for example, is exciting. Sociable people, those who like to be with others, like red. The cool colors are green, blue and violet. These colors, unlike warm colors, are relaxing. Where there are cool colors, people are usually quiet. People who like to spend time alone often prefer blue.

Red may be exciting, but one researcher says that time seems to pass more slowly in a room with warm colors than in a room with cool colors. He suggests that a warm color, such as red or orange is a good color for a living room or restaurant. People who are relaxing or eating do not want time to pass quickly. Cool colors are better for offices or factories if the people who are working there want time to pass quickly. Researchers do not know why people think some colors are warm and other colors are cool.

However, almost everyone agrees that red, orange, and yellow are warm and that green, blue, and violet are cool. Perhaps warm colors remind people of warm days and the cool colors remind them of cool days. Because in the north the sun is higher during summer, the hot summer sunlight appears yellow.

1.Which of the following colors belong to cool colors?

A. Blue, violet B. Yellow, green

C. Black, blue. D. Brown, white

2.Which of the following statements is not true?

A. Sociable people like warm colors.

B. Warm colors can make people excited.

C. People who like to be with others don’t like red.

D. Where there are warm colors, people want to be active.

3.Which is the right color for different rooms?

A. Red or orange for offices.

B. Orange for dining rooms.

C. Blue for bedrooms.

D. Red for studies

4.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

A. Two groups of colours B. Cool colours

C. Warm colours D. Colours and people

At first sight the planet Mars(火星)does not appear very welcoming to any kind of life. It has very little oxygen and water, the temperature at night is below 50 degrees and winds of 100 miles (161 kilometers)per hour cause severe dust storms. However, the surface of the planet seems to show that water flowed across it at some time in the past, and it is believed that there would be enough ice at the poles to cover the planet with water if it melted. Although there is no life on the Mars now, some scientists think there may have been some form of life a long time ago. At that time, the planet had active volcanoes(火山); the atmosphere was thicker and warmer; and there was water. In fact, in some ways the Mars may have been similar to the Earth, where life exists.

Some people believe that the Mars could support life in the future if the right conditions were produced. The first step would be to warm the planet using certain gases which trap the Sun’s heat in the planet’s atmosphere. With warmth, water and carbon dioxide（二氧化碳）, simple plants could begin to grow. These plants could slowly make the Mars fit to live on. It is judged that the whole process might take between 100, 000 and 200, 000 years. In the meantime, people could begin to live on the planet in a special closed environment. They would provide a lot of useful information about conditions on Mars and the problems connected with living there.

1.According to the passage, the planet Mars has no __________on it.

A．animals B．mountains

C．dust D．winds

2.What is the topic of Paragraph 2?

A．Certain gases should be used to warm Mars.

B．Plants should be grown to make Mars fit to live on.

C．Mars could support life with right conditions in the future.

D．People could live on Mars in a special closed environment.

3.The most suitable title for the passage is __________.

A．No Life on Mars

B．A Study of Mars

C．The Future conditions on Mars

D．The Possibility of Life on Mars
