    Angela Chang (张韶涵) didn’t know it would be so hard to turn singing into a career (事业). She went to many different record companies. But she was always turned down for looking too young and small.
    “I’d never had such difficulties before,” Chang said. But Chang’s talent was finally accepted in 2002. When she got a piece of work, she cried.
    She soon became a star. Her first album Over the Rainbow sold very well. She won many awards.
    “You wouldn’t believe such a beautiful voice could come from such a small body,” said one musician after hearing Chang sing. “She has a special voice. You can’t forget it.”
    But the 25-year-old girl has other talents too. Chang is also an actress. She has played a role in the popular TV plays, My MVP Valentine and At Dolphin Bay. Many people remember her common-girl parts in the plays. But acting is difficult. Chang once acted so badly that she was nearly fired (解雇). Another time it took her 27 tries to get a scene (一场戏) right.
    “I cried when I got back home,” Chang said. “But I knew that I wouldn’t always fail. You only fail when you give up.”
    Now with four albums behind her - Over the Rainbow, Aurora, Pandora and Flower in the Wonderland, it’s clear that Chang and music were made for each other. As she sings in one song, “I have a pair of invisible wings (隐形的翅膀). They fly me to the skies and give me hope.”
    小题1:The phrase “turned down” in the first paragraph means “______”.
    A．承认B．拒绝C．开除D．雇用
    小题2: Many record companies refused to co-operate (合作) with her because ______.
    A．she looks very commonB．she is too young
    C．she doesn’t sing very wellD．she looks young and small
    小题3: Although acting is difficult for her, she never gives up because ______.
    A．she is strong-mindedB．people like her films
    C．she is interested in actingD．she acted in the popular TV plays
    小题4:Which do you think is the best title of the passage?
    A．The Small Girl.B．Four Albums.
    C．I have a Pair of Invisible Wings.D．A Poor Actress.

    小题1:B
    小题1:D
    小题1:A
    小题1:C

    小题1:根据第一段的段意可知，因为看上去太年轻，太小，很多公司拒绝了张韶涵。故选B。
    小题1:根据第一段最后一句可知，选D。故选D。
    小题1:根据倒数第二段最后一句“But I knew that I wouldn’t always fail. You only fail when you give up.”可知，张韶涵是一个坚强的人。故选A。
    小题1:根据最后一段用张韶涵的一句歌词来结尾，故标题C最合适。故选C。

    Alicia was a young woman who liked to exercise for her health. In fact, she walked five kilometers before    26  every morning, and went swimming once a week at the swimming pool. She didn’t smoke and never    27  . She didn’t eat chocolate. She didn’t eat sweet and
    fatty food,    28  . She weighted herself every day.
    One day Alicia was on her daily walk when she saw a    29   sitting in a rocking chair under a tree. He looked very old and his hair was white. He looked thin and weak, and his hands were shaking,   30   he looked very happy.
    He smiled at her and said, “Good morning! Lovely day, isn’t it?”
    He had a wide smile    31   his face, and his eyes shone with happiness. But Alicia saw that he did not have teeth.
    “Good morning!” replied Alicia. “Yes, it is a lovely day.”
    Alicia thought he    32  very old and wise. She thought he must be at least 90 years old! She decided to ask him about the    33   of a happy old age.”
    “I hope you don’t    34   me asking,” she said, “but what is your secret for being so happy at your age? I hope I can look as happy as you do    35   I am your age.”
    The man in the rocking chair said, “My secret for   36  ? I smoke twenty packets of cigarettes every week, and drink three bottles of wine every day. I eat hamburgers and chocolates whenever I want. I never eat vegetables. I never walk anywhere and I never play sports. I sit at home every day.”
    Alicia was    37  . She didn’t expect the man to give her an answer like that. She wondered how the man got to be so old when he did    38   wrong. She thought he should be    39   and unhappy. Perhaps she was wrong. Maybe, she thought, people could live a long happy life    40   eating well or doing lots of exercise.
    “How old are you?” she asked.
    “It’s my birthday today,” said the man. “I’m forty-seven!”

    When I was walking down the street one day, I found a small bag on the ground. I picked it up and opened it to see if I could find out the owner’s name. There was nothing inside it except some dollars and an old photo--- a picture of a woman and a young girl about twelve years old. I put the photo back and took the bag to the police station. Before I left, the policeman wrote down my name and address. He thought the owner might want to thank me.

    Have you ever seen a movie called “ The Choir Boys”(《放牛班的春天》)？The French movie tells the story of a group of naughty boys who learn music from a dedicated(尽职的) teacher. In Shanghai, there is also a group of children learning music. But their story is a bit different.
    The musical group, “Shepherds’ Kids” , was founded(建立) by the Shanghai Jiuqian Volunteer Center. There are about 40 students in this group. Their parents are migrants(打工者) working in Shanghai.
    “ The music courses are free,” said Zhang Yichao, founder of the group. “We just want to make the children’s lives more colorful.”
    The kids learn singing, dancing and musical instruments. Their teachers are volunteers from high schools.
    Learning music is not an easy job, especially for these migrant workers’ children.
    “I never know the musical stave(五线谱) before,” said Hua Delong, 13. “Sometimes it was really hard to study.”
    Tang Yue is a volunteer teacher at the center. She is a student from Shanghai Ping’he Bilingual High School.
    “These kids face difficulties bravely,” said Tang. “Sometimes they have to help their parents do housework and have little time to practice, but I never hear them complain.”
    Their hard work has paid off(回报). Today many people know the group. They have even performed as a choir for foreign pop stars.
    Li Luo, 14, told “ Teens” how appreciative she was of the group.
    “I had little fun before. I seldom(很少) watched TV. Study seemed the most interesting thing in my life. “Shepherds’ Kids has given me a new life.”
    小题1:In Hua Delong’s opinion, learning music is not an easy job because _______.
    A．he didn’t know the musical stave beforeB．he had little fun before
