One summer he got a job in a butcher's shop (肉店) during the day time, and another in a hospital at night. In the shop, he learned to cut and sell meat. He did so well that the butcher went into a room behind the shop to do all the accounts ( 算賬) .In the hospital, of course, Bob was told to do only the easiest jobs.

I would like to suggest that for sixty to ninety minutes each evening all television broadcasting in the United States be forbidden by law. Let us take a      , reasonable look at what the results might be if such a（an）     were accepted.
Families might use the time for a real family hour. Without the distraction（分散注意力） of TV, they might    together after dinner and actually talk to one another. It is well known that many of our   ----everything in fact, from the generation gap to the high divorce rate to some forms of    illness ----are caused at least in part by    to communicate. By using the quiet family hour to     our problems, we might get to know each other better, and to like each other better. On evenings when such talk is     , families could discover more active pastimes(娛樂). Freed from TV and forced to find their own activities, they might take a     together to watch the sunset    they might take a walk together.
     free time and no TV, children and adults might discover reading. There is more entertainment in       than in a TV program.       report that the generation growing up with television can hardly write an English sentence,       at the college level.    is often learned from reading. A more literate new generation could be a product of the quiet hour. A different form of reading might also be done     it was in the past: reading aloud. The quiet hour could become the story hour. When the    ends, the TV networks might be forced to    with better shows in order to get us back from our newly- discovered activities.
At first glance, this idea seems radical(激進(jìn)的).    will we spend the time then? The fact is: it has been only twenty-five years since television came to control American free time. Those of us thirty-five and older can    childhoods without television. It wasn't that difficult.

We all know what it is like to be unable to turn your head because of a cold in the muscles of your neck, or because an unexpected twist has made your neck ache and stiff. Your whole body feels tight. The slightest move makes you jump with pain. Nothing could be worse than a pain in the neck. That is why we use phrase to describe some people who give you the same feeling. We have all met such people.
One is the man who always seems to be clapping his hands—often at the wrong time—during a performance in the theater. He keeps you from hearing the actors.
Even worse are those who can never arrive before the curtain goes up and play begins. They come hurrying down to your row of seats. You are comfortably settled down, with your hat and heavy coat in your lap. You must stand up to let them pass. You are proud of your self-control after they have settled into their seats…Well, what now…Good God, one of them is up again. He forgot to go to the men’s room, and once more you have to stand up, hanging on to your hat and coat to let him pass. Now, that is “a pain in the neck.”
Another, well-known to us all, is the person sitting behind you in the movies. His mouth is full of popcorn; he is chewing loudly, or talking between bites to friends next to him. None of them remain still. Up and down, back and forth, they go for another bag of popcorn, or something to drink.
Then, there is the main sitting next to you at a lunch counter smoking a smelly cigar. He wants you to enjoy it too, and blows smoke across your food into your mouth.
We must not forget the man who comes into a bus or subway car and sits down next to you, just as close as you will let him. You are reading the newspaper and he leans over and stretches his neck so that he can read the paper with you. He may even turn the paper to the next page before you are ready for it.
We also call such a person a “rubberneck”, always putting out his neck to where it does not belong, like neighbors who watch all your visitors. They enjoy invading your privacy. People have a strong dislike for rubbernecks. They hate being spied upon.
小題1:Where can you find this passage?
A．Medicine dictionaries.B．A travel guide.
C．Social science books.D．Students text books.
小題2:How do you feel when late comers walk back and forth in front of you in a cinema?
A．Disturbed.B．Ignored.C．Bored.D．Relaxed.
小題3:A “rubberneck” often                 .
A．says bad words behind people
B．quarrels face to face with neighbors
C．bargains the price with sales women
D．a(chǎn)sks about other people’s business
小題4:Which of the follow is “a pain in the neck”?
A．Someone who helps you find your seat in a movie theatre.
B．Someone who smokes in a smoking section on a train.
C．Someone who throws trash out of his car window on the highway.
D．Someone who goes to the doctor for his severe pain on the neck.

A hobby can be almost anything a person likes to do in his spare time. Hobbyists raise pets, build model ships, weave baskets, watch birds, hunt animals, climb mountains, raise flowers, fish, ski, skate, and swim. Hobbyists also paint pictures, attend concerts and plays, and perform on musical instruments. They collect everything from books to butterflies, and from shells to stamps.
People take up hobbies because these activities offer enjoyment, friendship, knowledge, and relaxation. Sometimes they even produce financial profit(利潤). Hobbies help people balance between work and play. Hobbies also offer interesting activities for persons who have retired. Anyone, rich or poor, old or young, sick or well, can follow a satisfying hobby, regardless of (不論)his age, position, or income.
Hobbies can help a person’s mental and physical health. Doctors have found that hobbies are valuable in helping patients recover from physical or mental illness. Hobbies give bedridden or wheel-chair patients something to do, and provide interests that keep them from thinking about themselves. Many hospitals treat patients by having them take up interesting hobbies or pastimes.
In early times, most people were too engaged in making a living to have many hobbies. But some persons who had leisure(休閑)did enjoy hobbies. The ancient Egyptians played games with balls made of wood or pottery.
People today have more time than ever before for hobbies. Machines have reduced the amount of time they must spent on their jobs. Hobbies provide variety for workers who do the same monotonous(單調(diào)的) tasks all day long. More people are retiring than ever before, and at an earlier age. Those who have developed hobbies never need to worry about what to do with their newly found leisure hours.
Sir William Osier, a famous Canadian doctor, expressed the value of hobbies by saying, “No man is really happy or safe without a hobby.”
小題1:It seems that people who     may spend more time enjoying their hobbies.
A．have little moneyB．have much money

Travel can be a lifesaver. But in today’s economy (經(jīng)濟(jì)) with airlines adding new fees almost daily and ticket prices sharply on the rise, many have written off travel as too expensive. However, with a few saving tricks and a little research, there are still lots of great deals to be had on airline tickets and more.
Early Bird Gets the Deal.
Travel experts say that there are certain times of day when more deals are available. Airfares can change three times a day as airlines adjust their prices to fill up flights. Early morning is when the fares tend to be lowest.
What Wouldn’t a Business Traveler do?
Flying when business travelers don’t can save you big money. Most business travelers fly on Mondays and Fridays, so Tuesday and Wednesday are the best days. Airlines will usually lower their prices on these days to aggressively try and fill empty seats.
 
                                
Fly to popular places at unpopular times. The slowest time of the year for travel is in the Fall between Labor Day and Thanksgiving. Again, to try and fill more empty seats, the airlines will lower prices and offer better deals to get people to fly during this time of the year.
Package Deals
Many times the best deals on airfare can be found as part of a package rate. Most travel sites have package rates available. Often, the entire package (hotel, airfare, rental car) is cheaper than just the plane ticket on another site. Even if you don’t need the rental car, with the money you’ve saved on the flight, you can afford to take a taxi. These deals are especially good on last minute bookings.
With a little inside knowledge and some good timing, you can get yourself a steal on a ticket to the vacation you thought was out of reach.
小題1:Which would be the best title for the text?
A．Tips on Vocation Travelling
B．Advice for Business Travelers
C．The Effect of Economy on Airlines
D．Tricks of Finding the Cheapest Flights
小題2:Many people have to cancel their travel plan because they _____.
A．have no saving tricksB．consider economic reasons
C．seldom do researchD．can’t have great deals
小題3:Which of the following can be filled in the blank in the text?
A．Fly to popular places.
B．Don’t Miss the Holydays.
C．Better Avoid the Crowds.
D．Lose No Chance for Travelling.
小題4:What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A．Saving tricks can make the seemingly impossible vacation possible.
B．Inside knowledge and good timing help you to steal tickets from airlines.
C．Vacation will be out of reach without inside knowledge and good timing.
D．Who thinks the vacation is out of reach never grasps the tricks of saving.

It’s hard not to feel cheated and over-charged when you receive unexpected roaming (漫游) charges while traveling abroad—whether they come from making phone calls or checking e-mails.
Jeff Gardner received an $ 11,000 bill from Verizon after spending four days in Jamaica. Before the trip, Mr. Gardner, who runs a fly-fishing business in Grayling, Michigan, said he called Verizon to find out what it would cost to use his cellphone for calls and his wireless card to check e-mails while in Jamaica. He said he was told that calls would be about $ 2 a minute and that there would be no extra charges for data as he was on an unlimited plan. The latter part turned out to be wrong.
“I don’t mind paying a fair amount for fair service, but $11,000 for four days is ridiculous,” said Mr. Gardner, who used his phone carefully and economically on the trip. He also tried to check and send e-mails using his wireless card, but quickly gave up after the e-mails didn’t go through. Still, his Verizon bill said more than 500,000 kilobytes (千字節(jié)) of data was delivered while he was in Jamaica, an amount Mr. Gardner said is 100 times what he normally uses in a month.
As travelers increasingly use smart phones abroad in the same way they do at home—to check e-mails, update Facebook and Twitter and pull up online maps—many are facing costly roaming fees, which providers charge when customers use their phones outside their service area. In fact, roaming charges have gotten so out of hand that the Federal Communications Commission has proposed a plan that would require wireless companies to send their customers a voice or text message when they are approaching their plan’s limit, when they have reached that limit and when they are starting to result in roaming fees.
小題1:Why did Jeff Gardner call Verizon before his trip to Jamaica?
A．To hand over his business.
B．To check his cellphone bill
C．To find out information about Jamaica.
D．To find out information about roaming charges.
小題2:What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?
A．Extra charges were made for Jeff Gardner’s data delivery.
B．Jeff Gardner’s calls were charged over $2 per minute.
C．Jeff Gardner’s plan turned out to be limited.
D．Jeff Gardner had difficulty delivering data abroad.
小題3:During the trip, Jeff Gardner______.
A．was careless with phone use
B．delivered no more data than at home
C．received quite poor e-mail services
D．frequently used his wireless card to send e-mails
小題4:What should wireless companies do according to the Federal Communications Commission?
A．Make customers know when they’re outside their service area.
B．Get customers informed when they’re near the limit of their plan.
C．Stop serving customers when they’ve reached their plan’s limit.
D．Limit some services to reduce the amount of roaming charges abroad.

My grandparents were married for over half a century, and played their own special game the time they had met each other. The goal of their game was to write the word “shmily” in a surprise place for the other to find. They took turns leaving “shmily” around the house, and as soon as one of them discovered it, it was their turn to hide it once more. They dragged “shmily” with their fingers through the sugar and flour containers to await whoever was preparing the next meal. “Shmily” was written in the steam left on the mirror after a hot shower, where it would reappear bath after bath. There was no end to the places where “shmily” would pop up. Little notes with “shmily” were found on car seats, or taped to steering wheels. The notes were put inside shoes and left under pillows. “Shmily” was written in the dust upon the mantel（壁爐架）and traced in the ashes of the fireplace. This mysterious word was as much a part of my grandparents’ house as the furniture.
It took me a long time before I was able to fully appreciate my grandparents’ game. Skepticism has kept me from believing in true love --- one that is pure and enduring (持久的). However, I never doubted my grandparents’ relationship. It was based on passionate（熱情的）affection which not everyone is lucky enough to experience.
But there was a dark cloud in my grandparents’ life: my grandmother had breast cancer. The disease had first appeared ten years earlier. As always, Grandpa was with her every step of the way. He comforted her in their yellow room, painted that way so that she could always be surrounded by sunshine, even when she was too sick to go outside. But my grandmother grew steadily weaker until, finally, she could not leave the house anymore. Then one day, what we all dreaded finally happened. Grandma was gone.
“Shmily.” It was written in yellow on the pink ribbons of my grandmother’s funeral bouquet (花束). As the crowd thinned and the last mourners turned to leave, Grandpa stepped up to my grandmother’s coffin and, taking a shaky breath, he began to sing to her. Through his tears and grief, the song came: S-h-m-i-l-y: See How Much I Love You.
小題1:According to the passage, where may the word “shmily” be found?
a.in the flour containers
b.on the mirror
c.on the sheet of toilet paper
d.on pillows
e.on the furniture
A．a(chǎn), bB．b, cC．a(chǎn), dD．b, e
小題2:The first paragraph is mainly about ________.
A．what the word “shmily” means
B．how the author’s grandparents played their special game
C．how the author appreciated her grandparents’ game
D．how the author’s grandparents cared for each other
小題3:The underlined phrase “pop up” in Paragraph 1 means ________.
A．a(chǎn)ppearB．changeC．surviveD．work
小題4:According to the passage, the author _________.
A．thought the game was meaningless
B．believes everyone can experience true love
C．doubted the existence of true love at first
D．sometimes left “shmily” around the house
小題5:Grandpa tried to make Grandma comfortable by _______.
A．singing songs to her every day
B．painting the room yellow
C．encouraging her to go outside
D．helping her take a hot shower every day
