    One of my wonderful memories is about a Christmas gift . Unlike other gifts, it came without wrap(包装).
    On September 11th ，1958，Mum gave birth to Richard. After she brought him home from hospital, she put him in my lap, saying, “I promised you a gift , and here it is.” What an honor！I turned four a month earlier and none of my friends had such a baby doll of their own. I played with it day and night. I sang to it. I told it stories .I told it over and over how much I loved it!
    One morning, however, I found its bed empty. My doll was gone! I cried for it. Mum wept and told me that the poor little thing bad been sent to a hospital. It had a fever. For several days I Heard Mum and Dad whispering such words as “hopeless”, “pitiful”, and “dying”, which sounded ominous.
    Christmas was coming. “Don’t expect any presents this year,” Dad said, pointing at the socks I hung in the living room. “If your baby brother lives, that’ll be Christmas enough.” As he spoke, his eyes filled with tears. I’d never seen him cry before .
    The phone rang early on Christmas morning. Dad jumped out of bed to answer it. From my bedroom I heard him say, “What? He’s all right?” He hung up and shouted upstairs. “The hospital said we can bring Richard home !”
    “Thank God !” I heard Mum cry .
    From the upstairs window, I watched my parents rush out to the car. I had never seen them so happy. And I was also full of joy. What a wonderful day! My baby doll would be home. I ran downstairs. My socks still hung there flat. But I knew they were not empty; they were filled with love!

    The quest for success always begins with a target. As Berra once said, “You got to be very careful if you don't know where you're going, because you might not get there.”
    Too many people wander through life like sleepwalkers．Each day they follow familiar routines, never asking, “What am I doing with my life?” and they don’t know what they’re doing because they lack goals．
    Goal-setting is a focusing of the will to move in a certain direction．Begin with a clear conception of what you want．Write down your goals and date them—putting them into words clarifies them．Rather than concentrating on objects to acquire and possess, focus on fulfilling your desires to do, to produce, to contribute—goal-setting that yields the true sense of satisfaction we all need．
    It’s important to visualize（想象）yourself accomplishing your goal．While losers visualize the penalties（不利）of failure, winners visualize the rewards of success．I’ve seen it among athletes, statistics contrasting air and highway safety, but it made no difference．I had read too many articles describing crash scenes and imagined these scenes vividly．I had programmed myself, without realizing it, to stay off planes．
    Then one summer I had the opportunity to fly on a private plane with friends to a resort；I didn’t want to miss out on a great vacation．So I spent two weeks imagining a smooth flight on a beautiful sunny day and an easy landing．
    When the day arrived, I was eager to go．To everyone’s surprise, I got on the plane and I loved every minute of it, and I still use the techniques I employed that day．

    1. 1.

      According to the passage, if you want to be successful, the first thing for you to do is   ________．

      1. A.
        find the right methods
      2. B.
        be careful about everything
      3. C.
        know your ability
      4. D.
        have a clear goal
    2. 2.

      If you have a target, you will ________．

      1. A.
        wander like a sleepwalker
      2. B.
        know well what you are doing
      3. C.
        do the same work every day
      4. D.
        put it into words
    3. 3.

      The problem with the author before he overcame his fear of air travel is that________．

      1. A.
        he didn’t know air travel is safer than highway travel
      2. B.
        he couldn’t imagine himself accomplishing his goal
      3. C.
        he read too much about plane crashes and tried to avoid flying
      4. D.
        he wanted to take a private plane instead of a public one
    4. 4.

      What would be the best title for this passage?

    It’s parents’ worst nightmare. Their child doesn’t come home one evening and is missing for several days.    
    When a 14-year-old boy from Atlanta, Georgia disappeared earlier this year, his mother turned to her Smartphone for clues using an app（应用程序） called Family Tracker that helped track his location.
    “You can see where your loved ones are without having to call or bother them. ”said Roberto Franceschetti of LogSat, the creators of the Family Tracker, which has more than 100,000 users and is available worldwide.    
    Parents can track the location of their child on a map, send messages, and even sound an alarm on the phone in a long distance.
    “We have an option for the sender to make a very unpleasant, noisy sound. It’s a loud alarm and we repeat that sound every two minutes until the person picks it up, ”he said.
    Parents don’t need to own a Smartphone to track their children. The service is also accessible through the web, as long as the phone that is being tracked is running the app.
    Family Tracker has an additional service that keeps records of all data from the app for a two-week period, which the company calls GPS breadcrumbs.
    “With a subscription（预定）, we keep all the locations where people have been on our servers. You can see where your kid has been for the past two weeks. You can find out where someone was at a certain time or when that person was at a specific place, ”Franceschetti explained.
    “When somebody gets abducted（劫持）, usually whoever does this throws the phone away or takes the battery out. We were hoping that our app would at least provide information on where the person was abducted or where they had been in the past. ”
    But will these types of apps let out personal secrets?
    “The advantages are huge compared to the disadvantages. Let’s not forget that the person always has to give initial permission—no one can be tracked unless they allow someone to do it. ”said Franceschetti.

    1. 1.

      According to the passage, all of the following about “Family Tracker” are true EXCEPT that __________.

      1. A.
        it can help parents know where their children are
      2. B.
        all parents don’t need to own a Smartphone to track children
      3. C.
        parents can use all the services of the app for free
      4. D.
        it has little to do with letting out personal secrets
    2. 2.

      What can we infer from the passage?

      1. A.
        The app will enjoy a great popularity in the future.
      2. B.
        The loss of children won’t be a nightmare for parents any more.
      3. C.
        The app will repeat the loud alarm continuously whenever parents track children.
      4. D.
        The app can keep records of information for more than half a month.
    3. 3.

      Which belong to the functions of the new app?
      a. track location      b. detect criminals    c. send messages
      d. protect privacy     e. send remote alarm   f. record information

      1. A.
        a, b, c, e
      2. B.
        a, c, e, f
      3. C.
        a, c, d, e

    Like every other Olympics, the London 2012 Olympics will depend upon thousands of volunteers to help with the smooth running of the event. To show the importance of the role, London 2012 volunteers are to be called ‘Game Makers’. Lord Coe has said recently: “London 2012 is relying on brilliant Game Makers to help us create a great Olympic and Paralympic Games. ”
    London 2012 Olympics volunteers will provide the face of London 2012, working behind the scenes and making sure the games are as well organized, efficient and, most importantly, as enjoyable as possible.
    Despite the hard-work and often unsociable hours required of volunteers, applications to be considered as a Game Maker were unprecedented（空前的） with all the 70, 000 available positions applied within days. But, for those still interested in helping out during 2012 and being in the middle of the action, there are still a lot of opportunities available.    
    If you were one of those who missed out on the chance of becoming London 2012 volunteers, you can now apply to be one of the 8, 000 London Ambassadors（大使）. This important role involves greeting fans from all over the world, welcoming them to the fantastic capital city of London and providing a friendly face as well as help, advice and a good old traditional warm British welcome. The view of London most visitors take away with them after the 2012 Olympics will mostly be down to the volunteers and ambassadors, so these roles play a very important part in the process of making the UK a great place to travel to.    
    Becoming a London Ambassador is a brilliant way to be involved with the London 2012 volunteers scheme and become a part of what should be an historic summer.

    1. 1.

      Why are London 2012 volunteers called “Game Makers”?

      1. A.
        They’ll decide whether the London 2012 Olympics are a success.
      2. B.
        They play an important role in the London 2012 Olympics.
      3. C.
        The London 2012 Olympics won’t be organized without them.
      4. D.
        They will work hard and effectively.
    2. 2.

      Which of the following can replace the underlined part “be down to” in Paragraph 4?

      1. A.
        be the responsibility of
      2. B.
        be under the control of
      3. C.
        be in harmony with
      4. D.

        To introduce the London 2012 Olympics.
      3. C.
        To show the importance of volunteers.

    Back in 2003 I had a pet rabbit named Alaska.Due to the rules the landlord had set，he had to be kept in the basement(地下室).One night I went downstairs to feed him.Keep in mind I’ve always thought the basement was frightening.As I was facing his cage and putting the bowl of water inside，a big shadow appeared behind me，as if a big，tall man were standing behind me.I turned around and nobody was there，but I got the distinct(清晰的)feeling that I was being watched.I basically dropped the water bowl and ran upstairs shouting for my mom.Ever since then I can’t go down there alone.
    Once I was trying to get to sleep，and I slept with the lights off.All of sudden I wanted to leave the room eagerly，but I couldn’t get out of my bed，I was too scared.The feeling of someone looking closely at me was so upset，I was physically afraid to move or breathe.I opened my curtains to let the street light in，thinking the light would help me feel better to move.That did nothing.I must have sat there on my bed for about fifteen minutes before I got up.I didn’t sleep in there that night.I’ve never felt anything so upset!
    Then there are all the little things，like seeing things in the comer of my eye，hearing doors open or close when I’m home alone，and the feeling of being watched.Once when my sister wasn’t home(we share a room)I heard someone breathing from her bed and heard the sheets rustle(沙沙声).Last week，I felt someone patting me in the shoulder when I was alone in my room.Sometimes I’ll be looking something and I’ll see one or more contorted(扭曲的)，angry faces.
    I realize that when one is looking for something to happen they can make things happen or imagine it.These are the moments in which I know nothing was imagined，so I wanted to share them and get your opinions.Thanks so much.

    The next day I sat down，with almost a hundred other candidates，for the intelligence test.I must have done all right because after about half an hour’s wait I was sent into another room for a psychological test.This time there were only about fifty candidates.The interviewer sat at a desk.Candidates were signaled forward to occupy the seat opposite him when the previous occupant had been dismissed，after a greater or shorter time.Obviously the long interviews were the more successful ones.Some of the interviews were as short as five minutes.Mine was the only one that lasted a minute and a half.
    I can remember the questions now：“Why did you leave your last job?”“Why did you leave your job before that?”“And the one before that?”I can’t recall my answers，except that they were short at first and grew progressively shorter.His closing statement，I thought，evealed(揭示)a lack of sensitivity which helped to explain why as a psychologist，he had risen no higher than the underground railway.“You’ve failed the psychological test and we are unable to offer you a position.”
    Failing to get that job was my low point.Or so I thought，believing that the work was easy.Actually，such jobs—being a postman is another one I still desire—demand exactly the sort of elementary yet responsible awareness that the habitual dreamer is least qualified to give.But I was still far short of full self-understanding.I was also short of cash.

      2. B.
        he could no longer afford to live without one

      4. D.
        he had received some suitable training
    2. 2.

      The writer thought he was overqualified for the job because        .

      1. A.
        he often traveled underground
      2. B.
        he had written many poems
      3. C.
        he could deal with difficult situations
      4. D.
        he had worked in a company
    3. 3.

      The length of his interview meant that        .

      1. A.
        he was not going to be offered the job
      2. B.
        he had not done well in the intelligence test
      3. C.
        he did not like the interviewer at all
      4. D.
        he had little work experience to talk about
    4. 4.

      What does the writer realize now that he did not realize then?

      1. A.
        How unpleasant ordinary jobs can be
      2. B.
        How difficult it is to be a poet
      3. C.
        How unsuitable he was for the job
      4. D.
        How badly he did in the interview

      3. C.

    A few days ago my wife sent me out to buy something. When I came home, I handed(交给) her a paper bag and said, “Here are the apples you wanted.” She looked in the bag, and then she looked at me. “I told you,” she said slowly, “to buy some eggs.”
    I felt worried about my absent-mindedness, so I went to see a doctor. He was a very kind man. “I have seen many people like you. It’s nothing to worry about,” he said. “If you know you are absent-minded, you are all right. But if you do not know you’re absent-minded, you may be really in trouble.”
    “Many famous people were absent-minded,” the doctor told me. “Thomas Edison(爱迪生)was standing in line(排队) one day to pay his taxes(税). When he arrived at the window, he found that he had forgotten his own name. He had to ask the man who was behind him to tell him who he was.”
    I felt much better and got up to leave. “Thank you, doctor,” I said. “How much do I have to pay you?”
    “Ten dollars for the check-up(检查),” the doctor said.
    “But doctor, I did not have a check-up!”

    Science has told us too much about the moon that it is fairly easy to imagine what it would be like to get there. It is certainly not a friendly place. Since there is no air or water, there can be no life of any kind. There is not much variety of scenery either. For mile after mile there are only flat plains of dust with mountains around them. Above, the sun and stars shine in the black sky. If you step out of the mountain shadow, it means moving from the severe cold into intense (强烈的) heat. These extreme temperatures continually break rocks away from the surface of the mountains. The moon is also a very silent world, for sound waves can only travel through air. But beyond the broken horizon, you see a friendly sight. Our earth is shining more brightly than the stars. From this distance, it looks like an immense (巨大的) blue, green and brown ball.

    1. 1.
