6、The first Chinese Western-style adventure，Ke Ke Xi Li，a popular film，is based on a true story about a group of volunteers trying to protect endangered antelopes from poachers hunting them down．

    There were more than one million Tibetan antelope，or“Chiru”，in Ke Ke Xi Li before 1985，but the price of their fine wool rose with demand for pashmina shawls．Poachers crowded to the wilderness，called Hoh Xil in Mongol，and the number of Tibetan antelope fell to less than 20,000 in just a few years．From 1993 onwards，local Tibetan and Han people formed a volunteer team to protect the animals．They left their families to risk their lives battling against well-armed poachers in the wilderness．

    The movie starts with the death of a member of the team and shows them tracking the poachers．They find more than 1,000 antelope corpses（尸體）on the way and meet with a series of difficulties：broken down jeeps，running out of gasoline，shortage of food and mountain passes blocked by heavy snow．

    The volunteers defend the protected region of Ke Ke Xi Li in Tibet，however，many poachers are determined and will do whatever they can to get what they want，including killing the volunteers．The area is rough，the enemy is well hidden，and the air is thin…ultimately，several volunteers，including the team leader，Ritai，give their lives．

    After the volunteers’ death，China founded Hoh Xil Nature Reserve to protect Tibetan antelope and named a natural conservation station for the leader of the team．

1．According to the passage，the story Ke Ke Xi Li comes from______．

    A．a(chǎn) best-selling novel about the region，Ke Ke Xi Li，in Tibet

    B．a(chǎn) true story about a team of volunteers struggling with poachers to protect antelopes

    C．a(chǎn) news report about the rapid decrease in population of the endangered Tibetan antelopes

    D．a(chǎn) plan made by the government to protect the precious Tibetan antelopes

2．The major cause of the rapid decrease in population of the Tibetan antelopes is    that______．

    A．so many poachers came to Ke Ke Xi Li to hunt antelopes for money

    B．the volunteers didn’t perform their responsibilities to protect the antelopes

    C．the wool of antelopes is more valuable with the increasing demand for pashmina shawls

    D．the government hasn’t found a more effective way to protect the endangered antelopes

3．From Ke Ke Xi Li，we can know that the life of the volunteers protecting antelopes is______．

    A．tough and dangerous；they could be killed

    B．very interesting and meaningful

    C．not as bad as the film showed

    D．full of adventure and excitement

4．It can be inferred that the purpose of the director creating the film is to ______．

    A．show to the public the real life of the volunteers protecting antelopes

    B．record an operation of the volunteers to protect the endangered antelopes

    C．memorize the sacrifices of Ritai and other volunteers

    D．a(chǎn)rouse the public and government’s attention to protect the endangered antelopes

5、    Never go into a supermarket hungry! This is a good piece of advice．If you go shopping for food before lunchtime，you’ll probably buy more than you plan to．Unfortunately，however，just this advice isn’t enough for consumers these days．Modem shoppers need an education in how not to buy things at the store．First，you check the weekly newspaper ads．Find out the items that are on sale and decide if  you really need these things，In other words，don’t buy anything just because it’s cheaper than usual!“New and Improved!”or“All Natural”on the front of a package influence you．Instead，read the list of ingredients（contents）on the back．Third，compare prices：that is，you should examine the prices of both different brands and different sizes of the same brand．

Another suggestion for consumers is to buy ordinary items instead of famous brands．Ordinary items in supermarkets come in plain packages．These products are cheaper because producers don’t spend much money on packing or advertising．The quality，however，is usually as good as the quality of well-known name brands．In the same way，in buying clothes，you can often find high quality and low prices in brands that are not famous Shopping in discount clothing stores can help you save a lot of money．Although these stores aren’t very attractive，and they usually do not have individual dressing rooms，not only are the prices low，but you can often find the same famous brands that you find in high-priced department stores．

    Wise consumers read magazine ads and watch TV commercials，but they do this with one advantage：knowledge of the psychology behind the ads．In other words，well-informed consumers watch for information and check for misinformation．They ask themselves questions：Is the advertiser hiding something in small print at the bottom of the page? Is there any real information in the  commercial，or is the advertiser simply showing an attractive image? With the answers to these questions，consumers can make a wise choice．

1．All the following statements are true about the phrase“ordinary items”in Paragraph 2 except______．

A．ordinary items never say“New and Improved”or“All Natural”

      B．ordinary products are usually cheaper than famous brands

      C．producers spend less money on packaging of ordinary items

      D．the quality of ordinary items is usually as good as that of famous brands

2．What does the writer think about ads?

      A．They are believable．

      B．They are attractive．

      C．They are full of misinformation．

      D．They are helpful to wise consumers．

3．One of the author’s suggestions to consumers is ______．

      A．to make use of ads

      B．not to buy items with words like“New and Improved’”or“All Natural”

      C．to buy high quality items such as famous brands after lunch

      D．to buy all ordinary items instead of famous brands

4．The author implies that ______．

      A．going into the supermarket hungry，you may buy more than you plan to

      B．the quality of ordinary items is usually high and the prices are relatively low

      C．you save a lot of money by shopping in discount clothing stores

      D．a(chǎn)ds sometimes don’t tell the truth

4、When Muhammad Ali was 12 years old，someone stole his shiny bicycle．Ali was very angry．He told a police officer he wanted to punch the person who stole it．The officer suggested that he back up those“fighting words”by learning how to box．

During the next 25 years，Muhammad Ali would become one of the top athletes and best boxers of the 20th century．He won a gold medal at the Olympic Games．He went on to earn the title of world heavyweight boxing champion three different times．His fights were major events watched by millions of people around the world．

    Muhammad Ali was born in 1942 in Louisville，Kentucky．His parents named him Cassius Marcellus Clay，Jr．They named their son after a Kentucky statesman who had fought against slavery in the 1800s．

    Young Cassius Clay quickly made his mark in the boxing ring．He turned professional after winning a gold medal in the Olympic Games in 1960．Four years later，he knocked out Sonny Liston to earn his first world heavyweight champion title．

    After winning the title，Clay converted（使轉(zhuǎn)變）to Islam．This religion follows the teachings of the prophet（先知）Muhammad．When Clay converted，he took a new name，Muhammad Ali．

  In 1967，Ali was called on to join the United States Army．The country was fighting the Vietnam War at the time，and young men were being enlisted to take part．But Ali refused to go．He said his religion taught him to oppose all wars．Ali was sentenced to prison，fined，and stripped of his boxing title．Ali fought his conviction，but he did not regain the right to box professionally for 3.5years．

    In 1974，Ali won the world heavyweight title again by beating George Foreman．Ali defended his heavyweight title six more times before he lost to Leon Spinks in February 1978．But Ali came back to beat Spinks and regain the title seven months later．

Dear Sally，

Now I'd like to tell you something about my part-time job this summer vacation，

of which I worked like a guide in a travel agency．The work was interesting but

tired．I think it was helpful to work this holiday．It was the first time that I have

earned money on my own．I've come to understand how hard my parents work to

support for the family．I used to keep on ask them for money，but now I'll never

waste money and learn to share worry with my parent．I've learnt how to get along

well with others．What’s worse，I've gained some working and social experience

and I have learnt something can’t be learnt from textbooks．All these will be good

for my future．In the word，I had the wonderful and valuable summer vacation．
