    Sweetest Day is celebrated on the third Saturday in October as a day to make someone happy. It is an occasion which offers all of us an opportunity to remember not only the sick, the aged, and children who have lost their parents, but also friends, workmates, relatives and neighbors whose helpfulness and kindness we have enjoyed.
    Over 60 years ago, when a Cleveland man noticed that some people, such as children who lost their parents and patients who lay in bed, too often felt forgotten and neglected, he developed in his mind the idea of showing them that they were remembered. He did this by giving them small gifts. With the help of his friends and neighbors, he gave those people small gifts on a Saturday in October. During the years that followed, other Clevelanders began to take part in the celebration, which came to be called “Sweetest Day”. Over time, the Sweetest Day idea of spreading cheer to the poor, the sick and children who had lost their parents was broadened to include everyone, and became an occasion for remembering others with a kind act or a small gift. Soon the idea spread to other cities all over the USA.
    Sweetest Day is not based on any single group’s religious beliefs or on a family relationship. It is a reminder that a thoughtful word or deed enriches life and gives it meaning.
    Because for many people remembering takes the form of gift giving, Sweetest Day offers us the opportunity to show others that we care, in a positive way.
    小题1:What is Cleveland?
    A．An island.B．A country.

    小题2:What do most people usually do to show their care to others according to the passage?

    A．Sweetest Day is celebrated on the third Sunday in October.
    B．Sweetest Day is just an occasion to care about disabled people.
    C．Sweetest Day is an occasion for lovers to express love.
    D．Sweetest Day is a day to make others happy.
    小题4:The underlined word “neglected” in the second paragraph means “______”.
    A．rememberedB．hated

    If you know exactly what you want, the best way to get a job is to get specialized training. A recent survey shows that companies like graduates in such fields as business and health care who can go to work immediately with very little on-the-job training. 
    That’s especially true of booming fields that are challenging for workers. At Cornell’s School of Hotel Administration, for example, bachelor’s degree graduates get an average of four or five job offers with salaries ranging from the high teens to the low 20s and plenty of chances for rapid advancement. Large companies, especially, like a background of formal education coupled with work experience. But in the long run, too much specialization doesn’t pay off. Business, which has been flooded with MBAs, no longer considers the degree an automatic stamp of approval. The MBA may open doors and command a higher salary initially, but the effect of a degree washes out after five years.
    As further evidence of companies gradually losing faith in specialized degrees, Michigan State’s Scheetz mentions a pattern in hiring practices. Although companies tend to take on specialists as new hires, they often seek out generalists for middle and upper-level management.  “They want someone who isn’t constrained（限制）by details to look at the big picture,” says  Scheetz. This sounds like a formal statement that you approve of the liberal-arts （文科）graduates. Time and again labor-market analysts mention a need for talents that liberal-arts majors are assumed to have: writing and communication skills, organizational skills, open-mindedness and adaptability, and the ability to analyze and solve problems. David Birch, manager of the Boston Red Sox, claims he does not hire anybody with an MBA or an engineering degree, “I hire only liberal-arts people because they have a less-than-canned way of doing things,” says Birch.
    For a liberal-arts degree, students focus on some basic courses that include literature, history, mathematics, economics, science, human behavior—plus a computer course or two. With these useful and important courses, you can feel free to specialize, “A liberal-arts degree coupled with an MBA or some other technical training is a very good combination in the marketplace,” says Scheetz. 
    小题1:
    What kinds of people are in high demand on the job market?
    A．Students with a bachelor’s degree in humanities.
    B．People with an MBA degree from top universities.
    C．People with formal schooling plus work experience.
    D．People with special training in engineering
    小题2:
    By saying “…but the effect of a degree washes out after five years”(Para 2), the author means     . 
    A．most MBA programs fail to provide students with a solid foundation
    B．an MBA degree does not help in the future promotion
    C．MBA programs will not be as popular in five years’ time as they are now
    D．people will not forget about the degree the MBA graduates have got
    小题3:
    According to Scheetz’s statement ( Para. 3), companies prefer people who     . 
    A．have a strategic mind B．are talented in fine arts
    C．are ambitious and aggressive D．have received training in mechanics
    小题4:
    David Birch claims that he only hires liberal-arts people because they     . 
    A．are more capable of handling changing situations
    B．can stick to established ways of solving problems
    C．are thoroughly trained in a variety of specialized fields
    D．have attended special programs in management
    小题5:
    Which of the following statements does the author support?
    A．Specialists are more expensive to hire than generalists.
    B．Formal schooling is less important than job training.
    C．On-the-job training is, in the long run, less costly.
    D．Generalists will do better than specialists in management.

    English families face being limited to 80 bags of rubbish a year. Households throwing away more waste will have to take it to the tip (垃圾站) or buy a limited number of extra bags.

    Doretta Cocks, protester of the Campaign for Weekly Waste Collections, said, “They must think we are fools. How can they claim to be concerned for the environment when they tell people to drive to the local tip? And what do you do if you don’t have a car? Walk?”
    The plan ignores the voice from ministers to end such heavy – handedness (笨拙).
    It is to be carried out by the Tory – led council (市政厅) in Wokingham, Berkshire, and is already in operation in Brozbourne in Hertfordshire.
    Many of the 180 councils that still offer unlimited weekly rubbish collections are watching the trial.
    Wokingham officials have told residents that 75 – litre bags will be given to each household and anything not left in them will not be collected.
    “Every household will receive 80 bags every year,” it said. “You can buy extra bags in rolls of ten but this will not be encouraged.”
    Families of five will get 100 rubbish bags a year and households of six or more will get 120.
    Residents will have a weekly recycling collection limited to cans, paper and cards, plastic bottles and so on.
    Plastic packaging and glass including bottles must either go with the general waste or be taken to recycling points. Green waste pick – ups cost an extra ￡60 a year.
    The council has told residents it will save ￡922,000 a year under the new system. There will be no local consultation (商讨) before it is introduced next April.
    小题1:What’s Doretta Cock’s attitude towards the new plan?
    A．Satisfied.B．Curious.C．Angry.D．Interested.
    小题2:What does the underlined word “this” refer to in the seventh paragraph?
    A．Receiving 80 rubbish bags every year.B．Buying extra bags every year.
    C．Driving to city tips.D．Getting 100 rubbish bags a year.
    小题3:It can be learned from the passage that         .
    A．the new plan is agreed by most ministers
    B．the new plan will waste a lot of money
    C．the government has asked for much advice of the new plan
    D．the new plan does not necessarily do good to the environment
    小题4:Which of the following is the best title of the passage?
    A．English families are limited to 80 bags of rubbish a year
    B．English families can’t clear away their rubbish
    C．English families are angry with their government
    D．English government pays no attention to residents’ interest

Inflation therefore stimulates people spending，and prevents people from saving.

    Getting your teen to think beyond his own immediate needs can be more difficult than cracking a nut with a plastic fork．But don't worry．It's not impossible．There are many ways to encourage your teen to care about those outside his immediate circle of friends．As he begins to have responsibility towards others, he will realize he feels even better about himself．
    "Teens are thinking about career, college, and what their future might look like," explains Michelle Maidenberg, a clinical director of Westchester Group Works, a center for group treatment in New York．"This is very challenging and just one of the reasons why they are so focused on their own world．" Once teens participate in community service, however, they begin to look beyond their personal needs．They also learn firsthand about the challenges others face, and they experience a sense of authority as they realize they can make a real difference in others' lives．
    Not sure how to convince a teen to get away from the cell phone and into a community project? Teens buy into community service when the project or program is in an area of their interest．
    "Finding something in an area of interest for them keeps them motivated and inspired," Maidenberg says．For instance, if he is interested in culinary （烹饪） school, he could volunteer in a soup kitchen or bake for a project that supports families in need．Volunteer projects in your teen's area of interest will build her knowledge base as well as help others．
    Parents can do their part by participating in community service themselves．Teens can learn directly from their parents that personal enjoyment is not ,all that matters．
    Let teens know the benefits they will obtain．“Give them every reason in the world to volunteer," Maidenberg advises．She says that working on community service projects builds confidence．"By working with others, teens improve managerial, interpersonal and communication skills．Community service helps to approach maturity when they take a step back to see the needs of other people," she adds．Another reward: service hours look great on a resume!
    小题1:.
    According to Michelle Maidenberg, it's hard to get teens to think beyond their own immediate needs partly because ___    ___．

    Do you still get free plastic bags from the supermarkets? Things have changed.
    China has banned free plastic bags at shops and supermarkets, and people have to pay for using plastic bags. The rule started on June 1, 2008. It came because our country tried to make litter less. Making super-thin plastic bags has also been banned.
    The Chinese once used about 3,000,000,000 plastic shopping bags a day, and they have caused pollution of the environment. The bags have become a main cause of plastic pollution because they are easy to break and people throw them away here and there. So the Chinese people are encouraged to bring their own bags for shopping.
    What kind of shopping bag is the best to bring? Some students in Anhui have a good idea. They make their own shopping bags. They use old clothes to make cloth bags, and send them to their parents as presents. They also ask their parents and friends to use cloth bags instead of plastic ones. They think it is their duty to protect the environment.

    Great literary works do not fade with time. Shakespeare’s plays, for example, have been read again and again by generation after generation; they have also been adapted for the big screen and shown at places other than the theater. Great literature also knows no language boundaries.  For example, Chinese classical novels like The Dream of the Red Chamber and Journey of the Monkey have been widely read not only by Chinese but also by sinologists, people who study Chinese culture, from many language backgrounds.
    People read literature to enjoy great writers’ ways with words and their humor. In the English language world, William Somerest Maugham is a novelist who is good at irony, i.e., saying the opposite of what is meant, to create humor. Another reason why Maugham’s novels are well-loved is that he never fails to provide a surprise ending to amuse his readers. 
    When readers become involved with what they are reading, they may behave as if they have traveled through time to live with the characters in the story. Readers of Maugham’s short story, The Luncheon, may often stop and wonder about how the main character is so easily fooled when hehas lunch with a woman he met once in Paris. They may also grow to love or hate this woman in the course of their reading.
    Literary works often provide room for different interpretations. For example, poetry, because of its succinct use of words, can often be interpreted in a number of different ways. Short plays, on the other hand, contain more elaborate descriptions of the setting and the moods of the characters, not to mention the stage directions. However, almost all literary works make use of symbols to suggest ideas indirectly. Because symbols can carry different meanings in different cultures, one person’s interpretation of a symbol can be very different from another person’s. 
    Great literature is not bound by time or language barriers. It will continue to speak to generations of people.
    小题1:In Paragraph 3, whom does “he” refer to?
    A．The author.B．The reader. C．The main character.D．Somerest Maugham.
    小题2:What would be the best title for this article?
    A．The Many Languages of LiteratureB．Great Literature Has No Barriers
    C．Great Literature Has TimeD．The Irony of Literature
    小题3:According to the passage, all the following things may draw readers’ attention EXCEPT______
    A．language backgroundsB．humorous words
    C．surprising endingsD．the use of symbols

      In Colombia, there are some unwritten rules that people are used to. These rules are not officially established, but people do respect them. For example, on a bus, a person keeps a distance from another person, and people don’t like to touch each other. Many people come to work late because they prefer to wait for another bus if the first one is too crowded. They don’t want to have to stand too close to another person, or maybe they are afraid of starting a conversation.
    A friend of mine in Colombia once said his mom got angry because he came home late, so he asked her, “Mom, what do you think of most people arriving at their jobs so late?” That gave her the answer to her question since everyone knows no one wants to get on a bus that is too crowded. His mother realized at that moment that customs have a big influence on a person’s life.
    Sometimes, people don’t like to make any kind of conversation or make eye contact(接触) with others. For example, when they are in line at a bank, they prefer to look up or down rather than look at other people.
    Moreover, people usually look down when they are in an elevator. Not only on a bus, in line at a bank, and in an elevator do people usually avoid talking to other people, but also in the streets when they are walking, they prefer to look down and to avoid contact with others.
    小题1: Why do many people get to work late in Colombia?
    A．They always think the next bus will be better.
    B．They don’t want to get on crowded buses.
    C．It’s an official rule in Colombia.
    D．They get into conversations and miss their buses.
    小题2: From the text we learn that        . 
    A．customs influence people’s livesB．a mother always understands her son
    C．people respect each other in ColombiaD．people like to talk in elevators in Colombia
    小题3:When people in Colombia are in line at banks, they         .
    A．make eye contactB．look at other people
    C．make conversationD．look up or down
    小题4: What would be the best title for the text?
    A．What People Do in Different SituationsB．Avoid Getting on a Crowded Bus
    C．Special Customs in ColombiaD．Obeying Unwritten Rules
