阅读理解

　　Languages keeps evolving(进化、发展), and English is no exception．It is a language that embraces(欣然接受)new words that may be cool today but gone tomorrow．

　　There are, however, some words and phrases that have stood the test of time．OK, which has become the international standard for expressing agreement, is a good example．

　　But why is this rather odd(奇怪的)expression so popular and so useful when we could use any number of other words to say the same thing?

　　Writing in The Times, Allen Metcalf, author of OK：The Improbable Story of America’s Greatest Word, writes：“What OK provided that the others did not was neutrality(中性), a way to express agreement without having to offer an opinion．”

　　For example, if someone asks you “Shall we go for a walk after lunch?” you can simply respond “OK”．There you go－no extra opinions．Just straight, plain old OK．

　　So just where did this rather curious expression come from? The origins of OK have been widely disputed(辩论，争论)．Some people have guessed that OK was the name of a person or a product．

　　Speakers of many different languages have had their say on this question, keen to claim the term as their own．

　　Writing an article for London’s Metro newspaper, Metcalf states：‘O and K are present in every language of the world, as expressions that can be abbreviated(缩写)OK．” For example：French－“O qu-oui”, “yes indeed”; German－“Ohne Korrektur”,“ without correction needed”; and in Latin or Greek, “Olla kalla”, “all good”．

　　But, does it sound a little too informal with this popular little expression?

　　Apparently not．

　　In a speech where he stated that his election(当选)would not be a radical(激进的)result to all problems, President Obama said：“…even though I am president…, AI-Qaida is still a threat(威胁)and that we cannot pretend somehow that because Barack Hussein Obama got elected as president, suddenly everything’s going to be OK,” he said．

　　So, there you go, straight from the president．It’s OK to say OK, and thanks to the expression’s widespread usage across the world, you can be understood anywhere．

(1)

Using the example of Obama, the author wants to show that _________．
[　　]
A．	there is still a long way to go to defeat Al-Qaida
B．	Obama likes to use OK when he speaks
C．	OK is widely used even on formal occasions
D．	the use of OK is encouraged in formal speech

(2)

According to Allen Metcalf, OK differs from other terms to express agreement, which of the following opinions is true?
[　　]
A．	It is easiest way to say．
B．	It doesn’t need emotion．
C．	It is the most commonly used．
D．	It doesn’t use in the formal speech．

(3)

What is the best title for the passage?
[　　]
A．	Why OK is OK everywhere?
B．	It’s OK to say OK in the world．
C．	Where did OK come from?
D．	Everything is going to be OK．

　　When my son, Mark, was in the third grade, he saved all his pocket money for over three months to buy holiday presents．The third Saturday in December Mark said he had made his list and had twenty dollars in his pocket．

　　I drove him to a nearby supermarket．Mark picked up a hand basket and went in while I wailed and watched in the car．It took Mark over 45 minutes to choose his presents．Finally he came to the checkout counter(交款处)and reached into his pocket for his money．It was not there! There was a hole in his pocket, but no money．Mark stood there holding his basket, tears falling down his face．

　　Then a surprising thing happened．A woman came up to Mark and took him in her arms．"You would help me a lot if you let me pay for you," said the woman．"It would be the most wonderful gift you could give me．I only ask that one day you will pass it on．When you grow up, I would like you to find someone you can help．When you help others, I know you will feel as good about it as I do no．"

　　Mark took the money, dried his tears and ran back to the checkout counter as fast as he could．That year we all enjoyed our gifts almost as much as Mm-k enjoyed giving them to us．

　　I would like to say "thank you" to that very kind woman, and tell her that four years later, Mark went house to house collecting blankets(毯子)and clothes for the homeless people in the fire．And I want to promise her that Mark will never forget to keep passing it on．

　　J.K. Rowling is the writer of Harry Potter, which is now one of the best-sellers in the world.

　　J.K. Rowling was born in Bristol on July 31st, 1965. She has one sister who is two years younger than her. Both girls loved listening to their father reading bedtime stories to them.

       Share Your Ideas and Experiences!
       Hi, my name is Christina Baum. I'm a fourteen-year-old German students. I'm writing to tell you
about an experiment we are doing at school with our Science teacher. At the beginning of this school
year, Frau Keller showed us films and we read articles about problems in the environment. One day she
said: "I want to know what you think. Please don't tell me what we should do or must do. Tell me what
each of you will do to protect the environment."
       She asked us to choose a topic, make a weekly plan and tell the class about it. Then we had to do
things to be "green" and write a report about our achievements. Some students said that they thought it
was impossible for a single person to contribute to the protection of the environment. Someone else said
that scientists should work harder to find new ways to produce energy.
       Frau Keller said that it is everyone's job to care for the health of the planet. After the first week everybody in class was excited about the project and wanted to continue to improve their results. Someone
suggested telling the other classes in the school. Now all 768 students at Hermann Stein School are
working on the project. At the end of the year, our class will write a report about what we have achieved.
       Next week I'll think about how not to waste water or make it dirty. I'm planning to try and use less
water every day, and also not use so much of the things that make it dirty. Every time I turn on the tap I
must think about how much water and soap I use.
       To use less water, this is what I'll do:
       —take a shower instead of baths;
       —turn off the tap while brushing my teeth;
       —use less washing-up liquid when washing dishes.
       If you want to know more or join us, please write an email to the following address: k.keller@
