Sarah ran in, shouting, “Look what I found!” Over the top of the paper I was reading; came a terrible thing that caused me to jump. It was a snake skin found in our garden.
“Isn’t it beautiful?” said my seven-year-old daughter.
I opened my eyes widely and looked at the snake skin in fear. I didn’t think it was beautiful, but I learned never to appear nonchalant(冷漠的)with children. Everything they see for the first time is important to their sense of beauty; they see only excellence in the world.
“Why does it do this?” Sarah asked.
“Snakes shed(蜕) their skins because they need to renew themselves,” I explained.
“Why do they need to renew themselves?” Sarah asked.
“We often need to shed our skins, those coatings that we cover ourselves with,” I said to my daughter. “We leave some things and find other thing unwanted or unnecessary. This snake no longer needs this skin. It is probably too little for him, and he probably doesn’t think he looks as smart in it as he once did. “
As we talked, I knew that she began to understand. Although she couldn’t understand clearly, she would know that renewal is part of progress; that we need to take a good look at ourselves, our rooms, schoolwork and spirit, and see what we need to keep and what we need to leave. I was careful to tell that this is a natural way, not one to be forced.
“Snakes don’t peel off their skins when they like them. “I explained. “It happens as a natural thing of their growth. “
“I see, Dad,” said Sarah as she held the snake skin, and then ran off.
I hoped she would remember this; we need to throw some away because they are worthless or unnecessary. Then we can store them as memories m our deep hearts.
1.Father jumped up when her daughter came to him with a snake skin because ______.
A. he didn’t want to read any more
B. he was in great fear of it
C. he wanted to praised her daughter
D. he hated snakes
2.Father’s patient explanation shows that ______.
A. his daughter didn’t want to listen to him at all
B. he knew children saw only excellence in the world
C. his daughter couldn’t follow him at all
D. he wanted to teach everything to her
3.In this reading the underlined word ‘renew’ means ______.
A. to begin to do something again
B. to make something newer than before
C. to replace something old with something new
D. to cover something old with something new
4.We learn from the reading that______.
A. the girl seemed to understand what her father said
B. the girl wasn’t interested in the explanation
C. the father was good at raising snakes
D. the father liked the snake skin better
5.Which of the following titles is the best for the reading?

In 1920, a nine-year-old American boy broke his neighbor’s window when he was playing soccer. His neighbor asked him to pay $12.5. At that time, $12.5 was a large number of money, and it could buy 125 chickens.
The little boy had to tell his father about it, and said sorry to his father. His father let him take responsibility (责任) for his own mistake. “I know I made a mistake, but I don’t have so much money,” the little boy said.
“Well, I can lend you some money, but you must give it back to me in a year,” said the father. Then he gave the little boy $12.5.
Since then, the little boy started doing hard work, like sending newspapers, doing the cleaning for his family, cleaning the car, etc. He had to get up early in the morning and go to bed late at night. Sometimes he even worked day and night. Six months later, he earned (赚) $12.5 and returned it to his father.

Reading is an activity that people enjoy a lot in their free time. Some like reading newspapers, and others enjoy novels or comic books. I like reading about the lives of great people. This always gives me a lot of ideas on how to make my own life better.

One good example is Orville and Wilbur Wright, the two brothers who invented the airplane. The plane has made the world into a small village. Hard work, not good luck, is the reason why the Wright Brothers could invent this convenient machine and become remarkable people. Today we still remember them when we see planes in the sky.

The world would be a very different place if someone hadn’t invented the lift. There would be few, if any, high-rise buildings because people would refuse to climb many stairs. By the time workers reached their offices on the top floors of a tower building, it would be time to go home – if they were not too tired for the long walk down!
The first lift that we know about was used by the Greek scientist, Archimedes, in about 230 BC. It was a simple place that could be pulled up and down with a rope. A lift like this was used much later in the 12th century by priests who lived on top of a mountain at Metereo in Greece. Because they were afraid of killers, the priests had not built any stairs up the mountain. The only way up was by lift, which priests worked from the top of the mountain.
A few hundred years later, a Frenchman, Villayer, invented a ‘flying chair’ which used a rope and a place. A number of rich people had these ‘flying chairs’ built in their homes, including Queen Anne of England in Windsor Castle and Louis XVI of France at Versailles. Unluckily, Louis’ daughter was badly hurt when using one of the chairs, and Villayer ran away, afraid that he would be punished.
The main problem for lift engineers was that either humans or animals were needed to pull the ropes. This problem was not worked out until the discovery of steam power. But even steam powered lifts were not always safe because they also used ropes which sometimes broke. If the rope broke - which it sometimes did - the lift fell to the ground and people in it were killed or hurt. This problem worked out in 1854 when an American, Elisha Otis, invented something which stopped the lift from falling if the rope broke. At first Otis lifts were used only in factories, then in 1857 he built one in a large New York store. Now lifts use electric power and are completely safe. They also travel very quickly. Some lifts travel faster than 60 kilometers an hour.
1.The writer thinks that lifts are important today because __________.
A. people like playing on them
B. they are the best way of using steam power
C. we need them for tall buildings
D. workers are lazy
2.The 12th century priests had a simple lift instead of stairs because ___________.
A. they thought the stairs were broken
B. they liked having stairs and a lift
C. the lived at the bottom of a mountain
D. they were afraid of killers
3.Villayer thought he would be punished because ____________.
A. poor people could not afford his ‘flying chair
B. someone was hurt in one of his ‘flying chairs’
C. his ‘flying chair’ did not work at all
D. he ran away with Louis XVI’s daughter
4.Steam power meant that ________ .
A. they did not need a living thing to pull the ropes
B. Elisha Otis could invent a lift that would not fall
C. the rope always broke
D. they could use lifts in factories
