    Without any hesitation, he said, “I’d be better off dead.” Hearing those words come out of my best friend’s mouth tore my heart apart. He has repeated that phrase more than once, and my mind continually plays it over like a voice recording.
    I met my best friend about three years ago. After knowing me for six months, he told me about his struggles with depression. Sadness was not the only emotion that came over me; I was shocked. He seemed so outgoing and happy all the time. I soon learnt that he was physically and emotionally abused as a young child, causing him to have suicidal (自杀的) thoughts.
    He refuses to talk to others about his depression because he now distrusts adults, especially those in his family. In spite of this, he feels as if I understand him and that I know the right words to say. Thus, when it comes to helping him, convenience is not in my vocabulary. It doesn’t matter where I am or what I am doing, for he takes priority. Sometimes he just needs the assurance of my voice telling him that everything is going to be okay and that I will not let him down.
    Many students at his school laugh at him when they notice the scars on his arms from cutting. It seems that other kids have every right to make fun of him and to look down on him. But no one holds such a right, so I encourage him to ignore the heartless kids who treat him badly. When he feels the weight of judging eyes or hateful voices, I always remind him that I care about him unconditionally. Just hearing me say I will always be his best friend seems to give him the security he needs to keep on going.
    My best friend once told me that if he hadn’t had me, he wouldn’t be alive. He said that my encouraging words convinced him not to take his life. Our friendship has taught me that a single word can impact on someone’s life. With the fragility of life as it is, I believe in the necessity of encouragement.

    Do you still get free plastic bags from the supermarkets? Things have changed.
    China has banned free plastic bags at shops and supermarkets, and people have to pay for using plastic bags. The rule started on June 1, 2008. It came because our country tried to make litter less. Making super-thin plastic bags has also been banned.
    The Chinese once used about 3,000,000,000 plastic shopping bags a day, and they have caused pollution of the environment. The bags have become a main cause of plastic pollution because they are easy to break and people throw them away here and there. So the Chinese people are encouraged to bring their own bags for shopping.
    What kind of shopping bag is the best to bring? Some students in Anhui have a good idea. They make their own shopping bags. They use old clothes to make cloth bags, and send them to their parents as presents. They also ask their parents and friends to use cloth bags instead of plastic ones. They think it is their duty to protect the environment.

    1. 1.

      People in China have to _____ now.

      1. A.
        throw plastic bags here and there

        collect plastic bags in the street

        pay for using plastic bags at shops and supermarkets
      4. D.
        use free plastic bags at shops and supermarkets

      2. B.
        litter

        pick up plastic bags everywhere
      4. D.
        buy cloth bags for their parents
    4. 4.

      What’s the main idea of this article?

        Making super-thin plastic bags has been banned in China.
      2. B.
        The bags have become a main cause of plastic pollution.
      3. C.
        Some students in Anhui begin to make their own shopping bags.
      4. D.
        To protect the environment, free plastic bags have been banned in China.

    Ask any person who is successful in whatever he or she is doing what motivates him/her, and very likely the answer will be "goals". Goal Setting is extremely important to motivation and success. So what motivates you? Why are you in college? If you are in college because that's what your parents want, you may find it difficult to motivate yourself. Sure, it's possible to succeed with someone else providing the motivation for you. ("If you graduate from college, I'll give you a car!" or worse "If you don't graduate from college, you won't get a car.") But motivation that comes from within really makes the difference.
    Certainly, you need some intelligence, knowledge base, study skills, and time management skills, but if you don't have motivation, you won't get far. Think about this analogy. You have a car with a full tank of gas, a well-tuned engine, good set of tires, quadraphonic CD system, and a sleek, polished exterior(外表). There it sits. This car has incredible potential. However, until a driver sits behind the wheel, puts the key in the ignition(点火装置), and cranks it up, the car doesn't function. You guessed it; the KEY is MOTIVATION.
    Interest is an important motivator for a student. So is a desire to learn. When you link these two things together, you create success. Often success in an endeavor(努力) leads to more interest and a greater desire to learn, creating an upward spiral(螺旋形) of motivation toward a goal you have established.
    So be honest with yourself. Are you genuinely interested in being in college? Have you set realistic goals for yourself? How can you develop the internal motivation that really counts? When it comes to motivation, KNOWING is not as important as DOING.

    1. 1.

      Why does the writer give the example of a car in the second paragraph?

      1. A.
        Because people can never go far without a good car.
      2. B.
        Because a good car motivates some college students to study harder.
      3. C.
        Because a good car is a symbol of being a success.
      4. D.
        Because motivation leads people to success like it starts a car.
    2. 2.

      What is the CORRECT comparison between the internal motivation and the external (外部的)motivation?

      1. A.
        Only the internal motivation can result in success.
      2. B.
        Internal motivation is more important than external motivation.
      3. C.
        Internal motivation and external motivation has equal importance.
      4. D.
        External motivation is enough for people to achieve success.
    3. 3.

      According to the article the following factors can push people towards their goals EXCEPT __________?

      1. A.
        interest
      2. B.
        the desire to learn
      3. C.
        the knowledge of motivation
      4. D.
        the sense of success
    4. 4.

      What’s the main purpose of the article?

      1. A.
        To encourage everyone to develop motivation for whatever they are doing..
      2. B.
        To inspire college students to set goals for their college life.
      3. C.
        To imply that the less motivated college students quit the college.
      4. D.
        To call on parents to give up their over-protection of their children.
    5. 5.

      What may be the writer’s advice to the potential readers?

      1. A.
        The goals you set for yourself shouldn’t be far beyond your reach.
      2. B.
        You needn’t attend college if you are really not interested in it.
      3. C.
        You should work harder to win praise from others.
      4. D.
        Honesty is the best policy to solve problems in your life.

    Most young architects ----particularly those in big cities ----can only dream about working in a building of their own. And marking that dream come true often means finding a building no one else seems to want, which is exactly what happened to David Yocum and his partner, Brain Bell. Their building is a former automobile electrical –parts firm in Atlanta. Form the outside, it looks too old, even something horrible, but open the door and you are in a wide, open courtyard, lined on three sides with rusting(生锈的) walls.
    In 2000, Yocum and Bell found this building in the city’s West End. Built in 1947, the structure had been abandoned years earlier and the roof of the main building had fallen down. But the price was right, so Yocum bought it. He spent eight months of his off-hours on demolition(拆除), pulling rubbish out through the roof, because it was too dangerous to go inside the building, The demolition was hard work, but it gave him time to think about what he wanted to do, and “to treasure what was there – the walls, the rust, the light,” Yocum said.” Every season, more paint falls off the walls and more rust develops. It’s like an art installation(装置) in there-a slow-motion show.”
    Since the back building had been constructed without windows, an all-glass front was added to the building to give it a view of the courtyard, and skylights were installed in the roof. The back of the building is a working area and a living room for Yocum and his wife. A sort of buffer(缓冲) zone between the front and the back contains a bathroom, a kitchen and a mechanical room, and the walls that separate these zones have openings that allow views through to the front of the studio and the courtyard beyond.
    Yocum and Bell, who have just completed an art gallery for the city, feel that the experience from decoration of their building, focusing on the inside rather than the outside, has influenced their work. It has also given these architects a chance to show how they can make more out of less.

    1. 1.

      According to the passage, it is      for most young architects in big cities to work in a building of their own.

      1. A.
        easy
      2. B.

        unrealistic

        common

        it was still in good condition
      3. C.
        it was located in the city center
      4. D.
        it looked attractive from the outside
    3. 3.

        pulled rubbish out through the roof

        benefited a lot from pulling down the roof
      2. B.
        turned more old buildings into art galleries
      3. C.
        got inspiration from decorating their old building
      4. D.
        paid more attention to the outside of the gallery
    5. 5.

      The main idea of the passage is that __.

      1. A.
        people can learn a lot from their failures
      2. B.
        it is worthwhile to spend money on an old building

        people should not judge things by their appearance
      4. D.
        creative people can make the best of what they have

    Not very long ago, a special family system(体系) existed in certain parts of South India. In the system, the actual head of a family unit was the mother’s eldest brother, though the mother also had an important position in the family. In families of this kind, a husband was actually no more than a visitor. He did not live with his wife, but with his own mother, brothers and sisters in another house. He saw his sons and daughters sometimes, but the man who actually fed and cared for them and acted as their father was their uncle--- their mother’s brother.
    But this system, in which brothers and sisters take the place of the father, no longer exists in South India except in a few villages. Economic(经济的) changes have had far- reaching effect on family life. Family life began to change when men went out to work in factories and offices instead of working with their mothers, brothers, and sisters on the land. When a man went out to work, he had money of his own and could buy his own land and build his own family, instead of depending on his mother and his brothers. He wanted to be independent(独立的). This is an example of the way in which economic relations can have an effect on family relationships.

    1. 1.

      The best title of this passage is ______.

      1. A.
        Husband Actually Visitor in Family
      2. B.
        Family System in South India
      3. C.
        Wife Has Important Position in Family
      4. D.
        Economic Relations Affects Family Relationships
    2. 2.

      Who had the actual control of a family in South India not long ago?

      1. A.
        The mother.
      2. B.
        The mother’s eldest brother.
      3. C.
        The father.
      4. D.
        The father’s mother.
    3. 3.

      In this system, the husband lived together with______.

      1. A.
        his wife
      2. B.
        his sons and daughters
      3. C.

    Doreen Sykora is now a junior at McGill University. She had a difficult time when she first began college. She said, “I was always well prepared for my examinations. But when I go into class to take the exam, I would fall apart. I could just blank out because of nervousness and fear.” Hitoshi Sakamoto, an anthropology(人类学) student at Temple University in Tokyo reports similar experiences.
    These two young students were experiencing something called test anxiety. Because a student worries and is stressed(加压力于) about a test, his or her mind does not work as well as it usually does. The student cannot write or think clearly because of the severe tension and nervousness.
    Now there are special university courses to help students. In these courses, advisors and psychologists try to help students by teaching them to manage test anxiety. Such a course helps students learn to live with stress and not fail because of it. First students take a practice test to measure their worry level. If the tests show that their stress level is high, the students can take a short course to manage the fear. These courses teach students how to relax their bodies. They get training to become calm in very tense situations. By controlling their nervousness, they can let their minds work more easily. Learned information then comes out without difficulty on a test.
    Doreen Sykora saw immediate results after taking such a course. She now has enthusiasm about the relaxation methods. “Mostly, what I do is imagine myself in a very calm place. Then I imagine myself picking up a pencil. I move slowly and carefully. I breathe easily and let all the tension out. With each breath, more worry leaves me. It really works too. My grades have improved greatly! I’m really doing well at McGill now. This relaxation method works not only on examinations, but it has improved the rest of my life as well.”
    For Hitoshi in Tokyo, the results were much the same. He is enjoying school a lot more and learning more.

    1. 1.

      What is the similarity between Doreen Sykora and Hitoshi Sakamoto?

      1. A.
        They are students from the same university.
      2. B.
        They failed in all the examinations.
      3. C.
        They both had experiences of test anxiety.
      4. D.
        They both had the same poor studying habits.
    2. 2.

      The phrase “blank out” in Paragraph 1 refers to “_______.”

      1. A.
        lose interest in the exam
      2. B.
        refuse to take the exam
      3. C.
        get an extra paper
      4. D.
        be unable to think clearly
    3. 3.

      What’s the purpose of some special university student-help courses?

      1. A.
        To help students to reduce test anxiety.
      2. B.
        To show a stress level experienced by students.
      3. C.
        To learn more knowledge about test anxiety.
      4. D.
        To have a better understanding of test anxiety.

    They like using the Internet. They have lots of pocket money to spend. And they spend a higher proportion of it online than the rest of us. Teenagers are just the sort of people an online seller is interested in, and the things they want to buy-games, CDs and clothing-are easily sold on the Web.
    But paying online is a tricky business for consumers who are too young to own credit cards. Most have to use a parent’s card. They want a facility that allows them to spend money.
    That may come sooner than they think: new ways to take pocket money into cyber (网络的) space are coming out rapidly on both sides of the Atlantic. If successful, these products can stimulate online sales.
    In general, teenagers spend huge amounts: $153bn (billion) in the US last year and ￡20bn annually in the UK. Most teenagers have access to the Internet at home or at school-88 percent in the US, 69 percent in the UK. According to the Jupiter Research, one in eight of those with Internet access has bought something online-mainly CDs and books.
    In most cases, parents pay for these purchases with credit cards, an arrangement that is often unsatisfactory for them and their children. Pressing parents to spend online is less productive than pressing on the high street. They are more likely to ask “Why?” if you ask to spend some money online.
    One way to help teenagers change notes and coins into cybercash is through prepaid cards such as InternetCash in the US and Smart cards in the UK. Similar to those for pay-as-you-go mobile telephones, they are sold in amounts such as￡20 or $50 with a concealed 14-digit number that can be used to load the cash into an online account.

    1. 1.

      What does the word “They” in paragraph 1 refer to?

      1. A.
        Sellers.
      2. B.
        Buyers.
      3. C.
        Teenagers.
      4. D.
        Parents.
    2. 2.

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

      1. A.
        More than half of the teenagers in the US and the UK have Internet access.
      2. B.
        Teenagers pay for goods online with their own credit cards.
      3. C.
        Most teenagers in the US and the UK have bought something online.
      4. D.
        Teenagers found it easier to persuade parents to buy online than in a shop.
    3. 3.

      New way to help teenagers shop online is to use ______.

      1. A.
        a new machine
      2. B.
        special coins and notes
      3. C.
        prepaid cards
      4. D.
        pay-as-you-go mobile phones
    4. 4.

      What is the passage mainly about?

      1. A.
        Online shopping traps.
      2. B.
        Internet users in the US and the UK.
      3. C.
        New credit cards for parents.
      4. D.
        The arrival of cyber pocket money.
