  George Frederich Handel, a small boy of six, lived in Germany. He loved music most. But his father didn't let him play any music.

  That night, when everyone else was asleep, he went to his hiding place. The moon was shining through a broken window.

  

  He sat on a box and began to play the piano. 2

  

  He played on and on, and he filled his house with his music.

  

  "George!" cried his father. "What are you doing? Stop playing now!"

  The music stopped. George cried. Then he turned to his father and said, “Father, you must understand. I love music. 3

  

  "Now listen to me, my dear son," said Mr. Handel,"I want you to be a rich man. I want you to live a happy life. I don't want you to be a poor man all your life. You must leave music and become a doctor. Don't let me see you at the piano again."

Meeting the English Family

  Rosa and her classmates were in a street in West London. The sky was dark. This was Rosa's big day, her first day in England.

  Rosa got out of a taxi. The driver carried a very heavy bag for her. They walked through the rain to the front door of a big Victorian house.

  A small girl opened the door. She was four years old. Her brother stood behind her. He was only two years old. One minute later, a young woman came to the door.

  “Welcome to Wembley!” she said and she offered Rosa her hand.  “These are my two children, Elisabeth and Isaac” “Pleased to meet you, Mrs. Frost! said Rosa with a strong Spanish accent.

  The two children ran back into the living room.

  “Don't worry about them! They're a little shy. And please call me Diana! Now let me show you your room and then we can have a nice cup of tea. Or would you like some coffee?”

  “I'd like to try a cup of English tea, made in England.”

  “This is your bedroom. There's a nice view (视野) of the football stadium (露天体育场) and here's a little desk where you can study. The bathroom and toilet are just opposite your door. Now I'll go and put the kettle on.”

  “Excuse me. What's a kettle?”

  “In England, we use a kettle to make hot water, we can then put the hot water in a teapot or use it to make coffee.”

  Rosa was happy with her new home, but she was a little puzzled (困惑的). Perhaps her mother Maruja was right. The British were not normal people. They did not kiss when they met and they lived in large Victorian palaces. Their favourite drink was tea and they used strange metal kettles to make the water hot. What was she going to say to Elisabeth and Isaac? How could she make friends with two shy English children? Perhaps the answer was in the big, black psychology (心理学) book.

(1) It was Rosa' s big day. She and her classmates were in

[  ]

A. the west part of London
B. the middle of Spain
C. a big Victorian house
D. the living-room

(2) Rosa's hostess (女主人) was called

[  ]

A. Elisabeth Frost
B. Isaac Frost
C. Diana Frost
D. Maruja Frost

(3) What could Rosa see through the window when she was in her bedroom?

[  ]

A. A garden.
B. A football stadium.
C. A desk.
D. A bathroom.

(4) In this passage the underlined (下划线的) word “it” means

[  ]

A. a cup
B. hot water
C. a teapot
D. milk

(5) After reading the passage, we know that

[  ]

A. Rosa had some trouble in getting on well with the hostess

B. the two children didn't like Rosa

C. Mr. Frost offered Rosa much help

D. Rosa was happy with the new family, but she couldn't understand some of their customs(习俗)

     I have been a friend of Bill Gates for a long time. I knew him when he was a student at Harvard
University. We were surprised when he left University to set up his own company "Microsoft" and make
his own software.
But he was the clever one! He is very good at writing computer languages and almost
all computers now use Microsoft software. The program "Word" is used from Britain to China!
     Of course he has made a lot of money and that makes people very jealous. They want to stop his success.
Even the government is against him and has tried to break his company into two parts. The government says
that it is unfair to other people who want to sell similar software. And what's more, because he fits his new
software free in every new computer, the government says he is stopping other companies from selling their
programs. This is not fair. Everyone should be able to do what they can to make their company bigger and
stronger. Bill Gates has only done what he can to stop other competitors.
     He is very rich, but he is generous. He has given millions of dollars to help the education and health of
many children around the world. You could not meet a better man than Bill Gates.
