    Six people are talking about two pie shops in a TV program.
    Lily: I’ve been going to Pie House for twenty years. Now Marie’s son is taking care of the business, and he makes pies as good as his mother’s. I enjoy my stay there as before. My family also like the pies. We feel relaxed while staying there.
    ◇◇◇
    Olive: I went to Pie Corner once. Their pies were great, too. But I feel more comfortable at Pie House. I am used to the taste there, which makes me feel happy. I’m really a fan of Pie House.
    ◇◇◇
    Ned: Uncle Roy used to work for my mom. Later he opened Pie Corner on the next block after he got married. At the beginning, it’s not easy for him, but it is becoming more and more popular especially among young people. They think Pie Corner can often give them a surprise.
    ◇◇◇
    Marie: Roy was already quite avant-garde when working with me. I mean he had different, sometimes even strange, ideas about pies. There were times I thought his pies wouldn’t taste good, but they turned out magically delicious. He is really creative and can always make new pies, which attract many people.
    ◇◇◇
    Lee:  Ned has done quite well with Pie House. His pies make you feel warm. But if you want to try something interesting, you should go to Pie Corner.
    ◇◇◇
    Chuck: The two pie shops are really different from each other. If eating Roy’s pies is like taking an exciting trip, then Ned’s pies are just like a sweet home you go back to after a long trip. Which one to go to depends on what you like.

    试题分析：这篇文章讲的是六个人在电视节目上谈论两家馅饼店的情况，他们都分别对着两家店做出评价和给出了自己的观点。
    小题1:推理判断题。根据文中Marie说的话: Roy was already quite avant-garde when working with me.以及Lee说的话：Ned has done quite well with Pie House.可以知道Marie和Roy一起工作，Ned也开了一家馅饼店，故选C。
    小题2:推理判断题。根据文中原句I’ve been going to Pie House for twenty years. Now Marie’s son is taking care of the business,（我一直去Pie House20年了，现在Marie的儿子照看生意。）可知Pie House是家族生意，故选 A。
    小题3:词义猜测题。根据文中提示I mean he had different, sometimes even strange, ideas about pies.（我的意思是他有不同的，有时甚至奇怪的关于馅饼的想法。）所以‘avant-garde 的意思是A。

    If cars had wings, they could fly and that just might happen, beginning in 2011.The company Terrafugia, based in Woburn, Massachusetts, says it plans to make such a car-plane called “Transition”, to customers(顾客) by the end of 2012. “It’s the next ‘wow’ vehicle,”said Terrafugia vice president Richard Gersh. “Anybody can buy a Ferrari, but as we say, Ferraris don’t fly.”
    The car-plane has wings that unfold for flying—a process the company says takes one minute-and fold back up for driving. A runway is still needed to take off and land.
    The Transition is being marketed more as a plane that drives than a car that flies, although it is both. The company has been working with FAA to meet aircraft regulations, and with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to meet vehicle safety regulations.
    The company is aiming to sell the Transition to private pilots as an easier and cheaper way to fly.They say it saves you the trouble from trying to find another mode of transportation to get to and from airports: You drive the car to the airport and then you’re good to go.When you land, you fold up the wings and hit the road. There are no expensive parking fees because you don’t have to store it at an airport—you leave it in the car park at home.
    The car-plane is designed to fly under 10,000 feet. It has a maximum take-off weight of 1,430 pounds, including fuel and passengers.
    The Transition’s price tag: $194,000, But there may be something else you need to pay, like a radio, transponder or GPS and so on.
    So far, the company has more than 70 orders. “We’re working very closely with them, but there are still some remaining steps,” Brown said.
    小题1:We can learn from the first paragraph that _________.
    A．car-planes will be popular in 2012
    B．people might drive a car-plane in 2012
    C．both Transition and Ferrari can take off and land
    D．Richard Gersh is the vice president of Massachusetts
    小题2:According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
    A．The car-plane needs a runway to take off and land.
    B．A car-plane with radio and GPS will cost $194,000
    C．The car-plane may fly at 8,000 feet
    D．People can park the car-plane in the car park at their home.
    小题3:Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined word “unfold” on this passage?
    A．startB．spreadC．coverD．travel
    小题4:What’s the best title for the passage?
    A．Cars With Wings May come true soon
    B．A Ferrari or a Car Plane
    C．A Easier and Cheaper Way to Fly
    D．Cars With Wings Can Fly as Fast as Planes

    Dogs are considered as man’s best friend. But what about cats? Sometimes cats can make equally wonderful friends. The following is a comparison of the two animals.
    A Friend Helps You When You’re Sick
    Dogs
    		When Catherine lay down on the sofa, Pepe stared(盯) into her eyes and kept sniffing(嗅). After being pushed away, he suddenly jumped onto her chest. That’s when Catherine felt a pain that made her visit a doctor, and a fast-growing cancer was found. Months later, however, Pepe started staring and sniffing again. It seemed strange, but sure enough, Catherine’s cancer had spread.
    Cats
    		When Tee sits and stares directly into her face, Alana immediately finds a chair. That’s because Tee is warning her that she is about to faint(昏倒), which can happen as often as three times a day. But Alana won’t get hurt if she sits down. Not only does Tee warn Alana, but also her husband. Then the cat stays with Alana until she recovers.
    A Friend Saves Your Life
    Dogs
    		Ryan fell into the water by accident. The river was full of melted snow, and Ryan was very cold and his body temperature was dropping dangerously low. Luckily, he was found by Chelsea, who was playing with her dog, Zion. “Zion knew the boy was in trouble,” says Chelsea. “Ryan grabbed onto the dog’s collar, and Zion just turned around and came straight back to the shore.”
    Cats
    		“I was napping in my bedroom, and then I was woken by Joey screaming and running back and forth,” says Bernice. Then she found herself surrounded by smoke. With Joey alongside her, she managed to get out of the door. By then, flames(火焰) were shooting up from the basement.
    “I found him in a mailbox when he was young and now I feel very fortune. Without him, I’d have probably died in the smoke.”

    A new plan for getting children to and from school is being started by a local government in Eastern England. This could end many parents’ worries fearful for their children’s safety on the roads. 
    Until now the local government have only been prepared to provide bus services for children living more than three miles from their school, or sometimes less if special reasons existed. Now it has been decided that if a group of parents ask for help in organizing transport they will be prepared to go ahead, as long as the arrangement will not lose money and children taking part will attend their nearest school.
    The new plan is to be fired out this term for children living at Milton who attend Impington School. The children live just within the three-mile limit and the local government said in the past that they would not undertake to provide free transport to the school . But now they have agreed to offer a sum of money for a bus service from Milton to Impington and back, a plan which has the support of the school’s headmaster. Between 50 and 60% parents have said they would like their children to take part . Final calculations have still to be carried out, but a government official has said the cost to parents should be less than ￡20 a term. They have been able to arrange the service at a low cost because there is already an agreement with the bus company for a bus to take children who live further away to  Impington . The same bus would now just make one more journey to pick up the Milton children. The official said they would get in touch with other groups of parents who in had asked if transport could be provided for their children to see if they would like to take part in the new plan. 
    小题1:What is the aim(目的) of the plan?
    A．To prevent the students’ road accidents
    B．To relieve the traffic pressure
    C．To save time for the parents and students
    D．To help the parents save money
    小题2:How can the local government arrange the new bus service at a low cost? 
    A．By letting the bus run in the morning only.
    B．By limiting the number of the students
    C．By getting the support from the headmaster
    D．By linking the new bus service with the existing one
    小题3:Which of the following is possible if the plan is carried out? 
    A．The bus company will make much more money
    B．The children can choose whatever school they like
    C．The parents can get rid of their worries
    D．The students in Impington School can have free bus rides
    小题4:This passage is most probably _____
