Leave a camera on a mountaintop, and chances are, you'll never see it again. But 24-year-old Paul Bellis, a university student from Wales, believed that most people were better than that, and set up a creative experiment to test out his theory.

"I was speaking to a friend who said you can't trust anyone, anywhere these days," Bellis told the Daily Mail. "I didn't want to believe that so I set up this experiment to find out what might happen and prove you can trust people."

Billis decided to do an experiment by hiking up a mountain called Snowdonia, taking a photo, and leaving his camera behind. He also attached a note to the camera, asking other hikers to take photos of themselves and then leave the camera there until the roll of film (膠卷) was empty. He also included his address, in case someone would be nice enough to return the camera to his home after the roll of film was finished.

Four days later, Bellis got a visit from a Snowdonia park manager, who came to return his camera. After Bellis got the film developed, he saw that his fellow hikers and followed his instructions. Thirty people had each taken photos of themselves at the mountain. From viewing the collection, it was clear that all the hikers had enjoyed the experiment.

As for the park manager, Brian, "I found the camera and thought it had been lost until I saw the note," he said. "I was passing his home and just dropped it off. I' m glad that the photos came out very well."

The underlined word "that" in Paragraph 2 refers to __________.

A. the Daily Mail

B. Bellis' theory

C. the idea that Bellis would do the experiment

D. the opinion that we shouldn't trust people

What can we know from the note Bellis attached to his camera?

A. The camera wasn't a missing one.

B. The roll of film had been used up.

C. Bellis was very kind to other hikers.

D. Bellis asked others to take pictures of him.

Brian returned the camera directly because __________.

A. he wanted to be trusted by others

A woman renewing her driver’s license at the County Clerk’s office was asked to state her occupation.She hesitated, uncertain how to classify herself.

“What I mean is,” explained the recorder, “do you have a job, or are you just a …”

“Of course I have a job,” said Emily.“I’m a mother.”

“We don’t list ‘mother’ as an occupation… ‘housewife’ covers it,” said the recorder.

    One day I found myself in the same situation.The clerk was obviously a career woman, confident and possessed of a high sounding title.“What is your occupation?” she asked.

    The words simply popped out.“I’m a Research Associate in the field of Child Development and Human Relations.”

    The clerk paused, ballpoint pen frozen in midair.

    I repeated the title slowly, and then I stared with wonder as my statement was written in bold, black ink on the official questionnaire.

    “Might I ask,” said the clerk with new interest, “Just what you do in this field?”

    Coolly, without any trace of panic in my voice, I heard myself reply, “I have a continuing program of research (what mother doesn’t), in the lab and in the field (normally I would have said indoors and out).Of course, the job is one of the most demanding in the humanities (any mother care to disagree?), and I often work 14 hours a day (24 is more like it).But the job is more challenging than most careers and rewards are more of a satisfaction rather than just money.”

    There was an increasing note of respect in the clerk’s voice as she completed the form, stood up, and showed me out.

    As I drove into our driveway, buoyed up (依托) by my glamorous new career, I was greeted by my lab assistants---ages 13, 7, and 3.

    Upstairs I could hear our new experimental model (a 6 month old baby), in the child-development program, testing out a new vocal pattern.

    I felt proud! I had gone on the official records as someone more distinguished and indispensable (不可缺少的) to mankind than “just another mother.”

    Motherhood…What a great career! Especially when there’s a title on the door.

What can we infer from the conversation between the woman and the recorder at the beginning of the passage?

A.The woman felt ashamed to admit what her job was.

B.The recorder was impatient and rude.

C.The author was upset about the situation that mothers faced.

D.Motherhood was not recognized and respected as a job by society.

How did the female clerk feel at first when the author told her occupation?

A.curious        B.indifferent    C.puzzled          D.interested

Why did the woman clerk show more respect for the author?

A.Because the author cared little about rewards.

B.Because she admired the author’s research work in the lab.

C.Because she thought the author did admirable work.

D.Because the writer did something she had little knowledge of.

What is the author’s purpose of writing the passage?

A.To show how you describe your job affects your feelings toward it.

B.To argue that motherhood is a worthy career and deserves respect.

C.To show that the author had a grander job than Emily.

D.To show that being a mother is hard and boring work.

As kids, my friends and I spent a lot of time out in the woods. “The woods” was our part-time address, destination, purpose, and excuse. If I went to a friends house and found him not at home, his mother might say, “Oh, he’s out in the woods, ” with a tone(語(yǔ)氣) of airy acceptance. It is similar to the tone people sometimes use nowadays to tell me that someone I’m looking for is on the golf course or at the gym, or even “away from his desk.” For us ten-year-olds, “being out in the woods” was just an excuse to do whatever we feel like for a while.

We sometimes told ourselves that what we were doing in the woods was exploring(探索). Exploring was a more popular idea back then than it is today. History seemed to be mostly about explorers. Our explorations, though, seemed to have less system than the historic kind: something usually came up along the way. Say we stayed in the woods, throwing rocks, shooting frogs, picking blackberries, digging in what we were briefly persuaded was an Indian burial mound.

Often we got “l(fā)ost” and had to climb a tree to find out where we were. If you read a story in which someone does that successfully, be skeptical: the topmost branches are usually too skinny to hold weight, and we could never climb high enough to see anything except other trees. There were four or five trees that we visited regularly—tall beeches, easy to climb and comfortable to sit in.

It was in a tree, too, that our days of fooling around in the woods came to an end. By then some of us had reached seventh grade and had begun the rough ride of adolescence(青春期). In March, the month when we usually took to the woods again after winter, two friends and I set out to go exploring. We climbed a tree, and all of a sudden it occurred to all three of us at the same time that we really were rather big to be up in a tree. Soon there would be the spring dances on Friday evenings in the high school cafeteria.

1.The author and his friends were often out in the woods to _______.

     A. spend their free time

         B. play golf and other sports

     C. avoid doing their schoolwork

         D. keep away from their parents

2.What can we infer from Paragraph 2 ?

     A. The activities in the woods were well planned.

     B. Human history is not the result of exploration.

     C. Exploration should be a systematic activity.

     D. The author explored in the woods aimlessly.

3.The underlined word “skeptical” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ______.

               A. calm  B. doubtfu  C. serious  D. optimistic

4.How does the author feel about his childhood?

     A. Happy but short.  B. Lonely but memorable.

     C. Boring and meaningless  D. Long and unforgettable.
