to go to find the shoe? What if he isn't here when you     10   ?" I didn't know how to answer that
question. So he said, "People are always more    11    than things. It's okay if you can't find the shoe, but
it isn't okay to lose your brother over a shoe."

     About 70 scientists were working on a very busy project.All of them felt really desperate due to the
pressure of work and the demands of their boss but everyone was loyal to him and did not think of
quitting their job.
    One day,one scientist came to his boss and told him,"Sir,I've promised to take my children to the
exhibition going on in our township so I want to leave at 5:30 pm" His boss replied,"OK.You're permitted
to leave the office early today."
     The scientist started working.He continued his work after lunch.As usual, he got involved to such an
extent that he looked at his watch only when he felt he was close to completion.The time was 8:30 pm.
Suddenly he remembered his promise to the children.He looked for his boss but he was not there.Having
told him in the morning himself, he closed everything and left for home.Deep within himself, he was feeling
guilty for having disappointed his children.He reached home.The children were not there.His wife alone
was sitting in the hall and reading magazines.The_situation_was_explosive;any_talk_would_boomerang_on_him.His wife asked him,"Would you like to have coffee or shall I straight away serve dinner if you are
hungry?" The man replied,"If you would like to have coffee, I will have too, but what about the children?"
His wife replied,"You don't know?Your boss came here at 5:15 pm and has taken them to the exhibition."
     What had really happened was the boss who gave him permission was observing him working
seriously at 5:00 pm. He thought to himself:this person will not leave the work,but he's promised to take
his children to the exhibition.So he took the lead in taking them there.The boss does not have to do it
every time.But once it's done, loyalty is established.
     That is why all the scientists at Thumba continued to work under their boss even though the stress
was extraordinarily huge.By the way,can you boldly guess who the boss was?He was none other than
the mastermind behind India's successful nuclear weapons program,Dr.APJ Abdul Kalam,former
president of India.

      Years ago, when I started looking for my first job, wise advisers urged, "Barbara, be enthusiastic!
Enthusiasm will take you further than any amount of experience."
     How right they were!Enthusiastic people can turn a boring drive into an adventure, extra work into
opportunity and strangers into friends.
     "Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm, " wrote Ralph Waldo Emerson.It is the paste
that helps you hang in there when the going gets tough.It is the inner voice that whispers, "I can do it!"
when others shout, "No, you can't."
     It took years and years for the early work of Barbara McClintock, a geneticist (遺傳學(xué)家) who
won the 1983 Nobel Prize in medicine, to be generally accepted.Yet she didn't let_up on her experiments.Work was such a deep pleasure for her that she never thought of stopping.
    Author and poet Samuel Ullman once wrote, "Years wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm
wrinkles the soul."
    Enthusiastic people also love what they do, regardless of money or title or power.If we connot do
what we love as a fulltime career, we can treat it as a part-time interest, like the head of state who
paints, the nun (修女) who runs marathons, and the official who handcrafts (手工制作) furniture.
    We can't afford to waste tears on "might-h(huán)ave-beens". We need to turn the tears into sweat as
we go after "what-can-be".
     We need to live each moment wholeheartedly, with all our senses-finding pleasure in the fragrance
of a back-yard garden, the crayoned (蠟筆的) picture of a six-year-old, the enchanging, beauty
of a rainbow.It is such enthusiastic love of life that puts a sparkle in our eyes, a lift in our steps and
smoothes the wrinkles from our souls.
1. What can be the best title of this passage?
A. Find pleasure in what you are doing
B. Wake up your life
C. To give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul
D. No pains, no gains
2. What conclusion does the writer draw through the experience of finding a job?
A. Enthusiasm will take you further than any amount of experience.
B. Years wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.
C. We can't afford to waste tears on "might-h(huán)ave-beens".
D. Enthusiastic people can turn a boring drive into an adventure, extra work into opportunity and strangers into friends.
3. Which of the following statements is WRONG according to the passage?
A. No one can achieve great success without enthusiasm.
B. Enthusiasm will take a person further than any amount of his experience.
C. We should make great efforts to do the thing that can be done instead of regretting for the past.
D. Barbara McClintock was generally accepted many years before she won the Nobel Prize.
4. Which of the following can replace the underlined phrase "let up"?
A. continue  
B. make less effort
C. make great effort  
D. stop
5. We can learn from the last paragraph that it is________that makes our life meaningful.
A. love of gardening
B. love of drawing pictures with the crayon of a six-year-old child
C. love of life
D. love of beautiful rainbow

     Several days ago, while I was logging onto QQ, my cousin's QQ head popped out online. We
hadn't seen each other for a few months, so I decided to start a conversation with her. My cousin is
studying in a college of our city. Her hobby is surfing the Internet. Every time I am on the computer,
she is always online, listening to music or decorating her "personal space". I like visiting her space.
It's creative and modern and worth a visit. I can't imagine my designing such a colorful web page.
     When I read the sentences she sent to me, I noticed that the Chinese characters had been changed,
but I could still guess their meanings. I took a strong interest in this type of new characters. Further
observation made me realize that they added some common Chinese radicals(部首) to the original
characters, making them more vivid, a little like Japanese. My cousin said this gives new life to the
Chinese language and culture.
     It is true that the Internet has reinvented our language, but I still can't accept this new cultural
change. Some Chinese characters have meanings in the shapes; one shouldn't superficially change
them by adding an additional radical. So I persuaded my cousin to change her new idea and use
standard characters to communicate. And she willingly accepted my advice.
1. The author's cousin was a(n) ________.  
A. engineer      
B. teacher       
C. model          
D. student
2. The author would like to visit his cousin's space _________.
A. because he wants to design a web page
B. because the music is well worth listening to
C. because it is very attractive and popular
D. because it is the best one on the Internet
3. The second paragraph mainly tells us that ________.    
A. the Internet has an effect on the Chinese characters
B. the Chinese people have learned a lot from the Internet
C. the QQ message online is very useful to everyone
D. the text message is more important than the QQ messages
4. The underlined word "reinvented" in the passage means "_________".
A. destroyed        
B. improved        
C. discovered      
D. introduced
5. We can learn from this passage that _________.    
A. the author is a teacher in a college
B. the author can design a webpage creatively
C. the Chinese characters have been changed into Japanese
D. the author thinks people should use standard characters to communicate

     Christopher Thomas, 27, was a writer by night and a teacher by day when he noticed he
was always tired and was losing weight fast. Diagnosed with diabetes(糖尿病), Thomas
would need to inject himself with insulin(胰島素) three times a day for the rest of his life or
risk nerve damage, blindness, and even death. And if that weren't bad enough, he had no
health insurance.
     After a month of feeling upset, Thomas decided he'd better find a way to fight back. He
left Canton, Michigan for New York, got a job waiting tables, nicknamed himself the Diabetic
Rockstar, and created diabeticrockstar.com, a free online community for diabetics and their
loved ones-a place where over 1,100 people share personal stories, information, and resources.
      Jason Swencki's son, Kody, was diagnosed with diabetes at six. Father and son visit the
online children's forums(論壇) together most evenings. "Kody gets so excited, writing to kids
from all over," says Swencki, one of the site's volunteers. "They know what he's going through,
so he doesn't feel alone."
     Kody is anything but alone: Diabetes is now the seventh leading cause of death in the United
States, with 24 million diagnosed cases. And more people are being diagnosed at younger ages.
     These days, Thomas's main focus is his charity(慈善機(jī)構(gòu)), Fight It, which provides medicines
and supplies to people-225 to date-who can't afford a diabetic's huge expenses. Fightit.org has
raised about $ 23,000-in products and in cash. In May, Thomas will hold the first annual Diabetic
Rockstar Festival in the Caribbean.
     Even with a staff of 22 volunteers, Thomas often devotes up to 50 hours a week to his cause,
while still doing his fulltime job waiting tables. "Of the diabetes charities out there, most are putting
money into finding a cure," says Bentley Gubar, one of Rockstar's original members. "But Christopher
is the only person I know saying people need help now."

1.Which of the following is TRUE of Christopher Thomas?
A.He needs to go to the doctor every day.
B.He studies the leading cause of diabetes.
C.He has a positive attitude to this disease.
D.He encourages diabetics by writing articles.
2.Diabeticrockstar.com was created for ________.
A.diabetics to communicate
B.volunteers to find jobs
C.children to amuse themselves
D.rock stars to share resources
3.According to the text, Kody ________.
A.feels lonely because of his illness
B.benefits from diabeticrockstar.com
C.helps create the online kid's forums
D.writes children's stories online
4.What can we learn about Fight It?
A.It helps the diabetics in financial difficulties.
B.It organizes parties for volunteer once a year.
C.It offers less expensive medicine to diabetics.
D.It owns a wellknown medical website.
5.The last paragraph suggests that Thomas ________.
A.works fulltime in a diabetes charity
B.employs 22 people for his website
C.helps diabetics in his own way
D.tries to find a cure for diabetes

     In the course of working my way through school, I took many jobs I would rather forget. But none of
these jobs was as dreadful as my job in an apple plant. The work was hard; the pay was poor; and, most of
all, the working conditions were terrible.
     First of all, the job made huge demands on my strength. For ten hours a night, I took boxes that rolled
down a metal track and piled them onto a truck. Each box contained twelve heavy bottles of apple juice. I
once figured out that I was lifting an average of twelve tons of apple juice every night.
     I would not have minded the difficulty of the work so much if the pay had not been so poor. I was paid
the lowest wage of that time-two dollars an hour. Because of the low pay, I felt eager to get as much as
possible. I usually worked twelve hours a night but did not take home much more than $ 100 a week.
     But even more than the low pay, what made me unhappy was the working conditions. During work I was
limited to two ten-minute breaks and an unpaid half hour for lunch. Most of my time was spent outside loading
trucks with those heavy boxes in near-zero-degree temperatures. The steel floors of the trucks were like ice,
which made my feet feel like stone. And after the production line shut down at night and most people left, I
had to spend two hours alone cleaning the floor.
     I stayed on the job for five months, all the while hating the difficulty of the work, the poor money, and the
conditions under which I worked. By the time I left, I was determined never to go back there again.
1. Why did the writer have to take many jobs at that time?
A. To pay for his schooling.
B. To save for his future.
C. To support his family
D. To gain some experience
2. The following facts describe the terrible working conditions of the plant EXCEPT ______.
A. loading boxes in the freezing cold
B. having limited time for breaks
C. working and studying at the same time
D. getting no pay for lunch time
3. What is the subject discussed in the text?
A. The writer's unhappy school life.
B. The writer's eagerness to earn money.
C. The writer's experience as a full-time worker.
D. The writer's hard work in an apple plant.
4. How is the text organized?
A. Topic-Argument-Explanation
B. Opinion-Discussion-Description
C. Main idea-Comparison-Supporting examples
D. Introduction-Supporting examples-Conclusion
