It was nearly dark. The sun was dropping down the mountains far away. Little Tom came back home with tears in his eyes.

“What’s the matter, Tom? How’s your trip?” his mother asked with a big smile. “I failed. The mountain is so high and full of big or small stones on the way. I still go ahead. But I was tired and it was so late that I had to come back.” Tom cried. “It doesn’t matter. You are only 14 years old after all. You will have another chance(機(jī)會(huì)).” his mother said. “But, standing at the top of the mountain is my dream!” Tom said. His father came over and asked, “Did you see the green trees on your way to the mountain?” “Sure, and there are a lot of beautiful flowers by the side of the road.” Tom replied. “Did you hear the birds singing?” his father asked. “There are many kinds of birds singing in the trees, and the sound was very sweet.” Tom said. “Did you feel the beauty of nature?” his father asked. “Yes, the blue sky, the white clouds, the green trees and the colorful flowers made a nice picture.” Tom answered. “That’s enough!” his father smiled and said, “Please remember, son. For often, achieving(獲得) what you expect is not the most important thing. Although you didn’t reach the top of the mountain, you got a lot on the way.”

Sheep always follow each other and never really think about where they are going. Perhaps fashion makes us iinto “sheep”. Maybe we should find our own way and not follow the crowd. Everyone wants to wear top brand clothing. However, we should remember that clothes designers(設(shè)計(jì)師) study what ordinary people wear on the street. Then they make clothes like ordinary people’s for everyone. Therefore, fashion really starts with individual(個(gè)人的) finding a new look. Then a company uses that look and then it becomes fashionable! That doesn’t mean you will. That is to say, a model might look very nice in a shirt but that doesn’t mean you will.

The same goes for mobile phones. Young people are always asking me when to change my mobile phones. Mobile phone companies are always putting new functions(功能) on their phones but do we really need all these extra functions? I use my phone to call people and to send messages to my friends. I don’t need a camera, Internet surfing or a calendar（日歷） on my phone. Again, if you buy the latest phone, it will only be the latest phone for a month or so. Then something new will come out and you’ll be unfashionable again. You can’t keep up with fashion all the time, so you don’t need to follow the fashion.

1.The underlined word “sheep” means”________.”

A. people who always follow the fashion

B. a kind of animal which is white

C. honest people who want to be fashionable

D. black sheep which break laws

2.Clothes designers study what you wear on the street because______________.

A. they want to buy the clothes you wear

B. they like your clothes

C. they want to design fashion clothes

D. your clothes are ugly

3.If you have a model’s clothes on, you________

A. are sure to be beautiful B. may not look beautiful

C. will be smarter D. will become a model

4.The passage is written mainly to _________.

A. explain what sheep are

B. tell us to buy new mobile phones

C. tell students not to care about the clothes

D. tell us not to be “sheep”

5.What can we infer(推斷) from the article?

A. Sheep which are out of date have been killed.

B. The writer is a person who always follows the fashion.

C. Fashion changes so quickly that we can hardly keep up with it.

D. Fashion only exists among those fashion models.

任務(wù)型閱讀

閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)要求完成下列各題。

On September 22, 2013, Huai’an announced(宣布) its own bike-sharing system to the public. By today, Huai’an has had 150 stations with 3,600 docking points. About 3,300 public bikes are only offered to people who have a Citizen Card(市民卡).

The public bike-sharing system is not rare in the world. Till April 2013 there were about 535 bike-sharing programmes around the world.

The name is quite different around the world. In Montreal, Canada, the public system is called BIXI; in Chicago, USA, its name is Divvy. However, there hasn’t been a name for the system in our city. Huai’an aims to be an international city in northern Jiangsu, so it needs to be given an English name.

When you want to ride the bike, the first hour is free. If you use the bike between 61-120 minutes, 1yuan; 121-300 minutes, 2 more yuan; over 5 hours, 5more yuan. So you can return the bike within 1hour to any station and rent(租) again to save money.

At present, there are no rules about how many times you can use the system each day. Go to a station and have a try now!

根據(jù)上面短文的內(nèi)容回答問(wèn)題。

1.How many public bikes can be used in Huai’an? ____________________________________

2.The public bike-sharing system is rare in the world, isn’t it?___________________________
