       When I was a child, I often dreamed of the time when I could leave home and escape to the city. We
lived on a farm, in the winter especially, we were quite cut off from the outside world. As soon as I left
school, I packed my bags and moved to the capital. However, I soon discovered that my life has its
problems too.
       One big disadvantage is money. It costs so much to go out, not to mention basics like food and
housing. Another disadvantage is pollution. I suffer from asthma(哮喘), and at times the air is so bad that
I am afraid to go outside. Then there is the problem of traveling round. Although I have a car, I seldom
use it because of the traffic jams. One choice is to go by bicycle, but that can be quite dangerous.
       Of course there are advantages. First, there is so much to do in the city, whatever you tastes in culture or entertainment(娱乐活动). Besides, there are wonderful jobs and greater chances of moving to a more
important job or position. Finally, if you like shopping, the variety of goods is very surprising-and, what is more, shops are often only a short walk away.
       Is life better then, in the city? Perhaps it is, when you are in your teens(十几岁)or twenties. However, as you get older, and especially if you have small children, the peace of the countryside may seem
preferable. I certainly hope to move back there soon.
1. What was the writer always thinking about when he was a child?
A. Staying on the farm.
B. Moving to the countryside.
C. Leaving home for the city.
D. Running away from the school.
2. Which of the following is true about the writer?
A. He is very old now.
B. He is in good health.
C. He prefers driving a car.
D. He lives in the city now.
3. In the passage, the writer tries to __________.
A. express his opinions about way of life
B. describe his life in the countryside
C. show an interest in the outside world
D. persuade the reader to live in the city
4. How is the passage mainly developed?
A. By inferring.
B. By comparing.
C. By listing examples.
D. By giving explanations.

Angela Chang (张韶涵) didn’t know it would be so hard to turn singing into a career (失业). She went to many different record companies. But she was always turned down for looking too young and small.
“I’d never had such difficulties before,” Chang said. But Chang’s talent was finally accepted in 2002. When she got a piece of work, she cried.
She soon became a star. Her first album Over the Rainbow sold very well. She won many awards.
“You wouldn’t believe such a beautiful voice could come from such a small body,” said one musician after hearing Chang sing. “She has a special voice. You can’t forget it.”
But the 25-year-old girl has other talents too. Chang is also an actress. She has played a role in the popular TV plays, My MVP Valentine and At Dolphin Bay. Many people remember her common-girl parts in the plays. But acting is difficult. Chang once acted so badly that she was nearly fired (解雇). Another time it took her 27 tries to get a scene (一场戏) right.
“I cried when I got back home,” Chang said. “But I knew that I wouldn’t always fail. You only fail when you give up.”
Now with four albums behind her - Over the Rainbow, Aurora, Pandora and Flower in the Wonderland, it’s clear that Chang and music were made for each other. As she sings in one song, “I have a pair of invisible wings (隐形的翅膀). They fly me to the skies and give me hope.”
【小题1】The phrase “turned down” in the first paragraph means “______”.
A.承认B.拒绝C.开除D.雇用
【小题2】Many record companies refused to co-operate (合作) with her because ______.
A.she looks very commonB.she is too young
C.she doesn’t sing very wellD.she looks young and small
【小题3】 Although acting is difficult for her, she never gives up because ______.
A.she is strong-mindedB.people like her films
C.she is interested in actingD.she acted in the popular TV plays
【小题4】Which do you think is the best title of the passage?
A.The Small Girl.B.Four Albums.
