With films like Close Encounters of the Third Kind and ET in the 1970s came a rapid increase in reports of flying saucers and men from Mars. More than 20 countries said their people once saw the UFO and there were over 1,200 reports about the UFO. Some even said they saw aliens.
    In July, 1916, Gaynor was a nine-year-old girl and lived in North Wales. One day, on her way home from school, she saw a silver object in a field not far from her home. The object looked like a saucer. Gaynor was very scared. She stayed in the tall grass and watched the door of the strange object open. She saw two aliens wearing silver suits get ou. Then they use something to examine the ground. They were short and had pink eyes. After about half an hour, the two aliens went back into the object. Then it took off. When Gaynor got home, she told her mother about her unusual experience, but her family decided to keep quiet about it. They didn’t want others to laugh at their daughter. However, 18 months later, Gaynor told her story to UFO scientists. They found out that Gaynor told the truth.

    Once upon a time, there was a scholar who wanted to gain more knowledge each day even though he had already gained enough knowledge. One day, he came to visit a saint and wanted to be his student. The saint provided some tea. He slowly filled the scholar’s cup: the cup was full, yet he kept pouring and pouring. The scholar burst out, “Stop! You can’t add anything to something that’s already full!” The saint set down the teapot and replied, “Exactly.”
    Whether it’s the silence between notes in music, or some open time in your schedule, you need space to act effectively. Yet most of us, myself included, tend to stuff as much as possible into whatever room is available-closets, schedules, budgets, relationships, and even the mind itself.
    However, some people know how to avoid overstuffing their life. For example, in Australia, it seemed that most people there operated at about 85% of their capacity（能力），unlike Americans pushing as close to 100% as possible. So when you run into Australians you know in the street, they have time to hang out and talk with you.
    Remember the cup: its value is in the space, the emptiness it holds. How to empty your “cup”?
    Be mindful of the element of space, openness , and emptiness  in your life. This includes room in a drawer, the volume of air in a kitchen, and open-mindedness in a friend. Sometimes you’re just stuck with a big bucket of tasks yet to do. But at least empty the bucket faster than you fill it with new tasks. Put some space between finishing one thing and staring another. For example, after sending one email, take a breath before replying to another one. Drop the stuff you can no longer afford to lug around. At sea level, you can run with a brick in your backpack, but if you’re hiking on a mountain, that brick has got to go.

    1. 1.

      By pouring water into the cup, the saint most probably wanted the scholar to know that     .

      1. A.
        he should pay attention to details
      2. B.
        he should keep learning every day
      3. C.
        he had already gained enough knowledge
      4. D.
        he should be very careful in order to succeed
    2. 2.

      We learn that compared to Americans, Australians      .

      1. A.
        work much harder
      2. B.
        know less about their capacity
      3. C.
        spare more time for themselves
      4. D.
        spend less time with their friends
    3. 3.

      The underlined word“lug”in the last paragraph probably means“     ”.

      1. A.
        reach
      2. B.
        carry
      3. C.
        see
      4. D.
        show
    4. 4.

      What’s  the structure of the passage?

      1. A.
        Example →advice→ conclusion →story.
      2. B.

    Many facts suggest that children are overweight and the situation is getting worse, according to the doctors. I feel there are a number of reasons for this.
    Some people blame the fact that we are surrounded by shops selling unhealthy, fatty foods, such as fried chicken and ice cream, at low prices. This has turned out a whole generation of grown-ups who seldom cook a meal for themselves. If there were fewer of these restaurants, then probably children would buy less take-away food.
    There is another argument that blames parents for allowing their children to become overweight. I agree with this, because good eating habits begin early in life, long before children start to visit fast food shops. If children are given fried chicken and chocolate rather than healthy food, or are always allowed to choose what they eat, they will go for sweet and salty foods every time, and this will carry on throughout their lives.
    There is a third reason for this situation. Children these days take very little exercise. They do not walk to school. When they get home, they sit in front of the television or their computers and play computer games. Not only is this an unhealthy pastime（消遣）, it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food. What they need is to go outside and play active games or sports.
    The above are the main reasons for this problem, and therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active, as well as steering them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits.

    Once upon a time, there was a man who was so famous that everyone in his country knew him.
    One day, the famous man was sitting in a restaurant with his sister. “It must be great to be famous. Everyone tries to please you, and you can do whatever you want to,” said his sister. “It’s quite the opposite sometimes, in fact. Because I’m famous, I can’t do what I want to,” he denied. “But look, we’re sitting at the best table and eating the best food. We couldn’t sit here and eat this if you weren’t famous,” said his sister. “I’ll show you what I mean,” said he.
    The next day, the famous man picked up his sister and took her to another country. “I’m not at all famous here,” he said. “Let’s see how we get on.” Soon they found a restaurant, but it was very busy, so they had to queue. “This wouldn’t have happened if you were famous,” said his sister, but the famous man just smiled.
    When they finally got a table, it took the waiter years to bring what they ordered. And the food supposed to be hot was cold, and the food supposed to be cold was hot! Eventually, the famous man couldn’t stand any more and asked to see the manager. “This food is awful. We had to wait an hour for a seat, and the service is also very poor. Look, even my spoon is dirty!”
    Showing his horribly yellow teeth, the manager, smiling, said, “Well, that’s just bad luck for you.” 
    “Don’t you know who I am?” asked the famous man.
    “I’ve no idea,” replied the manager.

    The need to feed a growing population is putting much pressure on the world's supply of water. With 97% of the world's water too salty to be drunk or used in agriculture, the worldwide supply of water needs careful management, especially in agriculture. Although the idea of a water shortage(短缺)seems strange to someone fortunate enough to live in a high rainfall country, many of the world's agricultural industries experience constant water shortages.
    Although dams can be built to store water for agricultural use in dry areas and dry seasons, the costs of water redistribution(重新分配)are very high. Not only is there the cost of the engineering itself, but there is also an environmental cost to be considered. Where valleys(山谷)are flooded to create dams, houses are lost and wildlife homes destroyed. Besides, water may flow easily through pipes to fields, but it cannot be transported from one side of the world to the other. Each country must therefore rely on the management of its own water to supply its farming requirements.
    This is particularly troubling for countries with agricultural industries in areas dependent on irrigation (灌溉). In Texas, farmers' overuse of irrigation water has resulted in a 25% reduction of the water stores. In the Central Valley area of southwestern USA, a huge water engineering project provided water for farming in dry valleys, but much of the water use has been poorly managed.
    Saudi Arabia's attempts to grow wheat in desert areas have seen the pumping of huge quantities of irrigation water from underground reserves. Because there is no rainfall in these areas, such reserves can only decrease, and it is believed that fifty years of pumping will see them run dry.

    1. 1.

      What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?

      1. A.
        Ways to reduce the costs of building dams.
      2. B.
        Steps to improving water use management.
      3. C.
        Measures to deal with worldwide water shortages.
      4. D.
        Approaches to handling the pressure on water supply.
    2. 2.

      From the first two paragraphs we learn that________.

      1. A.
        much of the world's water is available for use
      2. B.
        people in high rainfall countries feel lucky
      3. C.
        the costs of water redistribution should be considered
      4. D.
        water can be easily carried through pipes across the world
    3. 3.

      The text is mainly about________.

      1. A.
        water supply and increasing population
      2. B.
        water shortages and environmental protection
      3. C.
        water redistribution and wildlife protection
      4. D.
        water use management and agriculture

    If women are mercilessly exploited year after year, they have only themselves to blame.  Because they tremble at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion, they are always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stores. Clothes which have been worn only a few times have to be put aside because of the change of fashion. When you come to think of it, only a woman is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe packed full of clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear.
    Changing fashions are nothing more than the intentional creation of waste. Many women spend vast sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn. Women who cannot afford to throw away clothing in this way, waste hours of their time altering the dresses they have. Skirts are lengthened or shortened; neck-lines are lowered or raised, and soon.
    No one can claim that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society. Fashion designers are rarely concerned with vital things like warmth, comfort and durability. They are only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of discomfort, as long as they look right. There can hardly be a man who hasn’t at some time in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day, or delicately picking her way through deep snow in high-heeled shoes.
    When comparing men and women in the matter of fashion, the conclusions to be drawn are obvious. Does the constantly changing fashion of women's clothes, one wonders, reflect basic qualities of instability? Men are too clever to let themselves be cheated by fashion designers. Do their unchanged styles of dress reflect basic qualities of stability and reliability? That is for you to decide.

    1. 1.

      The writer would be less critical if fashion designers placed more stress on the of clothing
      ___ .

      1. A.
        comfort
      2. B.
        appearance
      3. C.
        cost
      4. D.
        suitability
    2. 2.

      According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE？

      1. A.
        Fashion designs should not be encouraged since they are only welcomed by women.
      2. B.
        The constant changes in women's clothing reflect their strength of character.
      3. C.
        The fashion industry makes an important contribution to society.
      4. D.
        New fashions in clothing are created for the commercial exploitation of women.
    3. 3.

      By saying “the conclusions to be drawn are obvious”, the writer means that _____.

      1. A.
        women’s inconstancy in their choice of clothing is often laughed at
      2. B.
        women are better able to put up with discomfort
      3. C.
        men are also exploited greatly by fashion designers
      4. D.
        men are more reasonable in the matter of fashion

    In all one’s lifetime it is oneself that one spends the most time being with or dealing with. But it is exactly oneself that one has the least understanding of.
    When you are going upwards in life you tend to overestimate yourself. It seems that everything you seek for is within your reach. When you are going downhill you tend to underestimate yourself, mistaking difficulties for your own incompetence.
    To get a thorough understanding of oneself is to gain a correct view of oneself-aware of both one’s strengths and shortages. You may look forward hopefully to the future but be sure not to expect too much, for ideals can never be fully realized. You may be courageous to meet challenges but it should be clear to you where to direct your efforts. That’s to say so long as you have a perfect knowledge of yourself there won’t be difficulties you can’t overcome.
    To get a thorough understanding of oneself needs self-appreciation. Whether you think you are a towering tree or a blade of grass, a high mountain or a small stone, you represent a state of nature that has its own value. If you earnestly admire yourself you’ll have a real sense of self-appreciation, which will give you confidence. As soon as you gain full confidence in yourself, you’ll be enabled to fight and overcome any adversity.
    To get a thorough understanding of oneself also requires doing oneself a favor when it’s needed. In time of sadness, do yourself a favor by sharing it with your friends so as to change a gloomy mood into a cheerful one; in time of tiredness, do yourself a favor by getting a good sleep. As you are aware, what a person physically has is but a human body that’s vulnerable when exposed to the elements. So if you fall ill, it’s up to you to take a good care of yourself.
    In a word, to get a thorough understanding of oneself is to get a full control of one’s life. Then one will find one’s life full of color and flavor.

    1. 1.

      What is described in Paragraph 2 is to show that           .

      1. A.
        a person is easy to estimate himself too high when succeeding
      2. B.
        it is difficult for one to have a perfect knowledge of oneself
      3. C.
        you should keep up high spirits whatever difficulties you meet
      4. D.
        it is essential that a person get a thorough understanding of himself
    2. 2.

      Remember not to expect too much of yourself when looking forward to the future because         .

      1. A.
        your shortages might stop you succeeding
      2. B.
        ideals can never be turned into realities
      3. C.
        you are likely to lack enough courage
      4. D.
        you haven’t understood yourself quite well
    3. 3.

      Having a real sense of self-appreciation can enable one         .

      1. A.
        to realize one’s shortages
      2. B.
        not to be too proud
      3. C.
        to gain enough self-confidence
      4. D.
        not to go downhill
    4. 4.
