         "Christmas won't be Christmas without any presents," grumbled Jo, lying on the rug.
         "It's so dreadful to be poor!" sighed Meg, looking down at her old dress.
         "I don't think it's fair for some girls to have plenty of pretty things, and other girls nothing at all," added
    little Amy, with an injured sniff.
         "We've got father and mother and each other," said Beth, contentedly.
         The four young faces on which the firelight shone brightened at the cheerful words, but darkened again as Jo said sadly: "We haven't got father, and shall not have him for a long time." She didn't say "perhaps
    never", but each silently added it, thinking of father far away, where the fighting was.
         Nobody spoke for a minute; then Meg said in an altered tone: "You know the reason mother
    proposed not having any presents this Christmas was because it is going to be a hard winter for everyone; and she thinks we ought not to spend money for pleasure when our men are suffering so in the army. We
    can't do much, but we can make our little sacrifices, and ought to do it gladly. But I am afraid I don't";
    and Meg shook her head, and she thought regretfully of all the pretty things she wanted.
         "But I don't think the little we should spend would do any good. We've each got a dollar, and the
    army wouldn't be much helped by our giving that. I agree not to expect anything from mother or you, but
    I do want to buy UNDINE AND SINTRAM for myself; I've wanted it so long," said Jo, who was a
    bookworm.
         "I planned to spend mine on new music," said Beth, with a little sigh.
         "I shall get a nice box of Faber's drawing pencils; I really need them," said Amy, decidedly.
         "Mother didn't say anything about our money, and she won't wish us to give up everything. Let's each
    buy what we want, and have a little fun; I'm sure we work hard enough to earn it," cried Jo, examining
    the heels of her shoes in a gentlemanly manner.
         "I know I do-teaching those tiresome children nearly all day when I am longing to enjoy myself at
    home," began Meg, in the complaining tone again.
         "You don't have half such a hard time as I do," said Jo. "How would you like to be shut up for hours
    with a nervous, fussy old lady, who is never satisfied, and worries you till you're ready to fly out of the
    window or cry?"
         "It's naughty to fret; but I do think washing dishes and keeping things tidy is the worst work in the
    world. It makes me cross; and my hands get so stiff, I can't practice well at all"; and Beth looked at her
    rough hands with a sigh that anyone could hear.
         "I don't believe any of you suffer as I do." cried Amy, "for you don't have to go to school with
    impertinent girls, who plague you if you don't know your lessons, and laugh at your dresses, and label
    your father if he isn't rich."
         "If you mean libel, I'd say so, and not talk about labels, as if papa was a pickle-bottle," advised Jo,
    laughing.
         "I know what I mean, and you needn't be satirical about it. It's proper to use good words, and
    improve your vocabulary," returned Amy, with dignity.
         "Don't peck at one another, children. Don't you wish we had the money papa lost when we were
    little, Jo? Dear me! How happy and good we'd be, if we had no worries!" said Meg, who could
    remember better times.
         "You once said you thought we were a deal happier than the King children, for they were fighting
    and fretting all the time, in spite of their money."
         "So I did. I think we are; for, though we do have to work, we make fun for ourselves, and are a pretty
    jolly set, as Jo would say." Jo immediately sat up, put her hands in her pockets, and began to whistle.
         "Don't, Jo; it's so boyish!"
         "That's why I do it."
         "I detest rude, unladylike girls!"
         "I hate affected, niminy-piminy chits!"
         "Birds in their little nests agree" sang Beth, the peacemaker, with such a funny face that both sharp
    voices softened to a laugh, and the `pecking' ended for that time.
    1. According to the passage, who is the most pessimistic and who the most optimistic?
    A. Jo; Amy
    B. Meg; Beth
    C. Meg; Amy
    D. Amy; Beth

    C. The passage is a story about three girls and a boy in a family.

    Before World War Ⅱ Chicago, Illinois, standing at the southern end of huge Lake Michigan, had the reputation(名声)of being one of the toughest, most lawless and corrupt(腐败的) cities in the world. It earned its ill reputation largely from those who sold strong wine during the days of 1919 to 1933, when a law forbade Americans to make or sell strong wine in any form.

    Chicagoans have a great pride in their city. They say it is of great importance to the nation than New York. It is the center of American commerce(商业 ) and transportation. O’Hare Airport is the busiest airport in the world. 44 million passengers pass through it every year, and there are 2000 take offs and landings every day.

    Chicago is also a great inland port(港).It can send goods by oceangoing ships all the way to Europe-via the Great Lakes and the Saint Lawrence Seaway. It can send goods by barge(驳船),through water-way and canals, to the Mississippi and down it to the Gulf of Mexico.
