In 1943, during the Second World War the body of an English man, William Martin, was discovered off the Spanish coast. The papers he had been carrying were returned to England, where they were carefully examined. They had clearly been changed and that was exactly what the British had hoped would happen, for Martin was a trick designed to fool the Germans.
  Martin did not exist. The body was that of a sailor who looked as though he had died when his boat sank, but in fact he had been ill and died. Leaving the boat to go down, his parents allowed the dead body to be put into the sea near Spain. It was hoped that the Germans would find it and read the fake(假的)papers he carried.
  The papers said that the British would attack the island of Sardinia, when in fact they planned to attack the island of Sicily. The trick was successful. When the British landed on Sicily, most of the heavy German guns had been moved to defend(保衛(wèi)) Sardinia.
【小題1】______ put the papers on the dead man.

A.The British B.German spies C.Spanish soldiers D.William Martin 
【小題2】When the Germans found William Martin they probably thought he _________.
A.was a British spy with important information about the war 
B.was killed by the British soldiers 
C.died of an illness 
D.had the fake papers of the British Army 
【小題3】When the British found out the papers were changed they concluded _________.
A.Martin did exist B.Martin was a German spy 
C.the Germans had read the papers D.they should attack Sardinia 
【小題4】Which of the order is right according to this passage? __________.
a. The Germans found the dead at sea.
b. The British decided to use the dead body to fool the Germans.
c. The British planned to attack Sicily.
d. The papers on Martin were brought to London to be examined.

My wife Julie and I were out on the road that runs around where we live, when we saw an old worn-out dog stumbling (蹣跚) painfully up the road. We stopped, bent down, talked gently to the dog and patted it. I checked and there was a collar with a phone number. I called but no one answered.
The dog was painfully thin. So Julie ran home to get some of our dog’s food while I tried to encourage the dog. After Julie came back, we sat down on the sidewalk while our new friend made short work of the food. Eventually we got her home.
After trying for many times we got a response from the number. A lady came around with a bunch of flowers for us. She explained that Tara had been her father’s dog. She was very old and got lost that morning. So, Tara was safely returned home.
Here is the truth of the story:
Actually Julie and I were out that morning because I was leaving. She was trying to persuade me to come back, but I wasn’t hearing anything that made that sound likely.
I was about to turn and go when an old black dog walked between us and almost fell down. Suddenly we had something more important than our problem to worry about. There was a creature in need right before us and we had to work together to help it.
We did help it. And here I am writing the story in my own home, in my own family.
In the song “Love Is Not a Fight” Warren Barfield talks about marriage. At one point he sings, “And if we try to leave, may God send angels (天使) to guard the door.”
Sometimes angels come disguised (偽裝) as dogs.
【小題1】How was the dog when found?

A.Too weak to walk. B.Thin and worn out. 
C.Unable to eat food. D.Homeless but gentle. 
【小題2】 We can infer from Paragraph 2 that         .
A.the dog didn’t go with the writer 
B.the writer had his own pet dog  
C.Julie bought some food for the dog 
D.the dog didn’t eat any of the food 
【小題3】The underlined part “our problem” in the passage refers to the fact that         .
A.the writer didn’t want to take Julie’s advice 
B.a(chǎn)n old black dog appeared in front of them 
C.Julie disagreed with the writer’s travel on business  
D.the couple had some trouble with their marriage 
【小題4】Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A.An Angel Dog B.A Helpful Couple C.Saving the Dog D.A Famous Song

Would you jump off the Great Wall of China for 300 pounds a day?
A stunt (特技表演)person is a man or woman who does all the dangerous bits of acting work in films or on TV. This can be anything from a simple fall into a swimming pool, or walking off the top of a tall building. It sounds like a job that you would have to be made to try, but there are actually lots of people who want to do it.
Sarah France, twenty-four, is one of Britain’s sixteen professional stunt women ---there are one hundred and sixty stunt men in the country. We asked Sarah how she came to be a stunt woman.
“When I was young I was trained to be a dancer, and for seven years after school I was hardly out of work. A dancer’s life is pretty short, though, and my father suggested I should think about doing stunt work after I’d given up dancing. I thought about it for the next two years and decided to have a go. For six months, I worked really hard every day. I had to learn different skills---swimming, jumping, horse -riding, etc.”
Sarah finished the course in just five months and applied to the office which decides whether you’re accepted as a professional stunt person or not. Two weeks after she was accepted, Sarah was throwing off the Great Wall of China in Superman IV.
“I was very lucky to get work so quickly. I had a small part, playing a traveler who fell off the Wall after an earthquake. The traveler’s life was saved by Superman, of course! Actually, I fell forty-five feet into a pile of cardboard boxes! You can’t use anything softer than that or you will be brought back into view of the cinema. Instead you just have to learn to fall properly. It’s quite dangerous but I enjoy it.”
【小題1】Quite a number of people want to do dangerous acts in films because___________.

A.they are mad B.they don’t think them dangerous
C.no training is needed D.they can earn much money
【小題2】Sarah gave up dancing because___________.
A.her father persuaded her to do stunt work
B.she could not go on dancing forever
C.she had to work hard every day
D.she was often out of work
【小題3】Soon after Sarah got her new job as a stunt person, ______________.
A.a(chǎn)n earthquake took place near the Great Wall
B.she fell off the Great Wall and hurt herself
C.she was asked to act in Superman IV
D.she learned how to fall properly
【小題4】Which of the following words best describes Sarah?
A.Healthy B.Adventurous C.Skillful D.Successful
【小題5】The purpose of the first sentence of the passage is to ____________.
A.draw the readers’ attention to the whole passage
B.invite you to try jumping off the Great Wall for money
C.a(chǎn)sk you to be a stunt person

One day in 1965,when I worked at View Ridge School in Seattle,a fourth­grade teacher approached me.She had a student who finished his work before all the others and needed a challenge.“Could he help in the library?” she asked.I said, “Send him along.”
Soon a slight,sandy­haired boy in jeans and a T­shirt appeared.“Do you have a job for me?” he asked.
I told him about the Dewey Decimal System(杜威十進(jìn)分類法) for shelving books.He picked up the idea immediately.Then I showed him a stack(摞) of cards for long­overdue books that I was beginning to think had actually been returned but were misshelved with the wrong cards in them.He said,“Is it kind of a detective job?” I answered yes,and he became working.
He had found three books with wrong cards by the time his teacher opened the door and announced,“Time for break!”He argued for finishing the finding job;she made the case for fresh air.She won.
The next morning,he arrived early.“I want to finish these books,”he said.At the end of the day,when he asked to be a librarian on a regular basis,it was easy to say yes.He worked untiringly.
After a few weeks I found a note on my desk,inviting me to dinner at the boy’s home.At the end of a pleasant evening,his mother announced that the family would be moving to a neighbouring school district.Her son’s first concern,she said,was leaving the View Ridge library.“Who will find the lost books?” he asked.
When the time came,I said an unwilling good­bye.I missed him,but not for long.A few days later he came back and joyfully announced,“The librarian over there doesn’t let boys work in the library.My mother got me transferred back to View Ridge.My dad will drop me off on his way to work.And if he can’t,I’ll walk!”
I should have had an idea such focused determination would take that young man wherever he wanted to go.What I could not have guessed,however,was that he would become a genius of the Information Age:Bill Gates,tycoon(企業(yè)巨頭) of Microsoft and America’s richest man.
【小題1】What was the author when the story happened?

A.A teacher. B.A librarian.

A.To rearrange the books according to the new system.
B.To put those overdue books back to the shelves.
C.To find out the books with wrong cards in them.
D.To put the cards back in the long­overdue books.

William Henry Bragg was born at Westward,Cumberland,on July 2,1862.He was educated at Market Harboroagh Grammar School and afterwards at King William’s College,Isle of Man.Elected as a minor scholar of Trinity College,Cambridge,in 1881,he studied mathematics under the well­known teacher,Dr E.J.Routh.He studied physics in the Cavendish Laboratory during a part of 1885,and at the end of that year he was elected to the Professorship of Mathematics and Physics in the University of Adelaide,South Australia.
His research interests dealt with a great many fields and he was skilled at picking up a subject,almost casually,making an important contribution,and then dropping it again.However,the work of Bragg and his son Lawrence in 1913~1914 founded a new branch of science of the greatest importance and significance,the analysis of the crystal structure by means of X­rays.It is true that the use of X­rays as an instrument for the systematic revelation of the way in which crystals are built was entirely due to the Braggs.This was recognized by the award of the Nobel Prize jointly to father and son in 1915.
He was an honorary Doctor of some sixteen universities,and a member of the leading foreign societies.Many other medals and awards were bestowed upon him among which may be mentioned the Rumford Medal in 1916 and the Copley Medal (its premier award) in 1930.
He was the author of many books,including Studies in Radioactivity,X­Rays and Crystal Structure,The World of Sound,Concerning the Nature of Things,Old Trades and New Knowledge,An Introduction to Crystal Analysis,and The Universe of Light.His favorite hobby was golf.After a life of astonishing productiveness,Sir William Bragg died on March 10,1942.
【小題1】William Henry Bragg was awarded the Nobel Prize because________.

A.he succeeded in using X­rays to find out the crystal structure
B.he was the first to use X­rays to help to do his experiment
C.he determined to learn everything well and then gave them up
