    When I was a child, I often dreamed of the time when I could leave home and escape to the city. We lived on a farm, in the winter especially, we wear quite out off from the outside world. As soon as I left school, I packed my bags and moved to the capital. However, I soon discovered that my life has its  too.
    One big disadvantage is money. It costs so much to go out, not to mention basics like food and housing. Another disadvantage is pollution. I suffer from asthma(哮喘), and  the air is so  that I am afraid to go outside. Then there is the problem of traveling round. Although I have a car, I seldom use it became of the traffic jams. One choice is to go by bicycle, but that can be quite dangerous.
    Of course there are advantages. First, there is so much to do in the city, whatever you tastes in culture or entertainment(娱乐活动). Besides, there are wonderful jobs and greater chances of moving to a more important job or position. Finally, if you like shopping, the variety of goods is very surprising --- and , what is more, shops are often only a short walk away.
    Is life better then, in the city? Perhaps it is , when you are in your teens(十几岁)or twenties. However, as you get older, and especially if you have small children, the peace of the countryside may seem preferable. I certainly hope to move back there soon.
    小题1:What was the writer always thinking about when he was a child?
    A．Staying on the farm.B．Moving to the countryside.
    C．Leaving home for the city.D．Running away from the school.

    A．He is very old now.B．He is in good health.

    小题2:D
    小题3:A
    小题4:B

    小题1:细节查找题。从短文的第一句话I often dreamed of the time when I could leave home and escape to the city.可知答案为C。

    I arrived at my mother’s home for our Monday family dinner. The smells of food flew over from the kitchen. Mother was pulling out quilt(被子)after quilt from the boxes, proudly showing me their beauties. She was preparing for a quilt show at the Elmhurst Church. When we began to fold and put them back into the boxes, I noticed something at the bottom of one box. I pulled it out. “What is this?” I asked.
    “Oh?” Mom said, “That’s Mama’s quilt.”
    I spread the quilt. It looked at if a group of school children had pieced it together; irregular designs, childish pictures, a crooked line on the right.
    “Grandmother made this?” I said, surprised. My grandmother was a master at making quilts. This certainly didn’t look like any of the quilts she had made.
    “Yes, right before she died. I brought it home with me last year and made some changes,” she said. “I’m still working on it. See, this is what I’ve done so far.”
    I looked at it more closely. She had made straight a crooked line. At the center of the quilt, she had stitched(缝) a piece of cloth with these words:  “My mother made many quilts. She didn’t get all lines straight. But I think this is beautiful. I want to see it finished. Her last quilt.”
    “Ooh, this is so nice, Mom,” I said. It occurred to me that by completing my grandmother’s quilt, my mother was honoring her own mother. I realized, too, that I held in my hands a family treasure. It started with the loving hands of one woman, and continued with the loving hands of another.
    小题1:Why did the author go to mother’s home?
    A．To see her mother’s quilts.B．To help prepare for a show.
    C．To get together for the family dinner.D．To discuss her grandmother’s life.
    小题2:The author was surprised because      .
    A．the quilt looked very strange.B．her grandmother liked the quilt.
    C．the quilt was the best she had seen. D．her mother had made some changes
    小题3: The underlined wood “crooked” in the passage most probably means       .
    A．unfinishedB．brokenC．bentD．unusual
    小题4: Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
    A．A Quilt ShowB．Mother’s HomeC．A Monday Dinner D．Grandmother’s Quilt

    Have you ever been afraid to talk back when you were treated unfairly? Have you ever bought something just because the salesman talked you into it? Are you afraid to ask a boy (girl) for a date？
    Many people are afraid to assert themselves (insist upon their own rights). Dr Robert Alberti, author of Stand Up, Speak Out, and Talk Back, thinks it’s because their self-esteem(自尊) is low. “Our whole set-up makes people doubt themselves,” says Alberti. “There’s always a 'superior' around — a parent, a teacher, a boss — who 'knows better’”.
    But Alberti and other scientists are doing something to help people to assert themselves. They offer “assertiveness training” courses (AT). In the AT courses people learn that they have a right to be themselves. They learn to speak out and feel good about doing so. They learn to be aggressive(敢闯, 闯劲儿) without hurting other people.
    In one way, learning to speak out is to overcome fear. A group taking an AT course will help the timid person to lose his fear. But AT uses an even stronger motive—the need to share. The timid person speaks out in the group because he wants to tell how he feels. AT says you can get to feel good about yourself. And once you do, you can learn to speak out.
    小题1:In the passage, the writer talks about the problem that _______.
    A．some people are too easy-going
    B．some people are too timid
    C．there are too many superiors around us
    D．some people dare not stick up for their own rights
    小题2:The effect of our set-up on people is often to _______.
    A．make them distrust their own judgment
    B．make things more favorable for them
    C．keep them from speaking out as much as their superiors do
    D．help them to learn to speak up for their rights
    小题3:One thing AT doesn’t do is to _______.
    A．use the need of people to share
    B．show people they have the right to be themselves
    C．help people to be aggressive at anytime even when others suffer
    D．help people overcome fear

    Jungle country is not friendly to man, but it is possible to survive there. You must have the right equipment and you must know a few important things about woodcraft. Then your chances of staying alive are very good.
    No one should go into the jungle without the right equipment. You need light weight clothing, a good knife, and a compass. Fishhooks and a line, a rifle, matches in a waterproof container and a poncho are necessary too. So is a mosquito net to protect the head.
    In the jungle you can get hopeless lost within five minutes after leaving a known landmark. That is why you should always carry a compass. In open country, during the day, you can tell which way o go by studying the sun. At night the stars are sure guides o direction. But in most places the jungle rooftop is so thick that it is impossible to see the sun or the stars. Again and again you must check your position by the compass.
    Keep alert. Watch the ground in front of you carefully. Stop and listen now and again. Avoid haste, and rest often. In a place that is hot and humid, the person who sets a fast pace will soon become tired. A steady, even pace is wisest in the long run.  
    If you lose your way, don’t panic. Try to desire how long it has been since you were sure of your position. Mark the spot where you are with blazes on a tree. Put them on four sides of the tree, so that you will be able to see them from any direction. Then you can begin retracing your steps, knowing that you can always find the spot from which you started. Except in an emergency, never try to travel through the jungle at night.
    Whenever possible, it is wise to follow streams and rivers that are going in your general direction. This may cause you many extra miles of travel. But in the end it will save time and energy. Nothing is more exhausting than hacking a trail cross-through umbrella jungle.
    If a river is broad and deep and has no rapids, rafting is the best means of travel. Bamboo grows along the banks of many jungle streams. Since it is hollow and extremely strong, it makes a perfect raft.
    Surviving in the jungle is a science. The jungle people have become perfect in this science, and you can too. Learn as much as you can about what to expect in the jungle. Make sure you have the right equipment. Then no part of the jungle will be able to “live off” it for a long time.
    小题1: The author probably advises against traveling at night because ________.
    one tends to move too slowly at night
    some animals will attack you
    emergencies occur most frequently at night
    it is more difficult to check your position
    小题2:Following streams and rivers will help you to ________.
    avoid animal’s attacks
    save many extra miles of travel
    avoid crossing unbroken stretches of jungle
    have a constant source of drinking water  
    小题3:The word “blazes” in Paragraph 5 means _________.
    A．marks where bark (树皮) is removedB．light-colored spots
    C．bursts of flameD．sides of knife

    Grandpa Nybakken loved life—especially when he could play a trick on somebody. At those times, his large Norwegian frame shook with laughter while he pretended innocent surprise, exclaiming, “Oh, forevermore!” But on a cold Saturday in downtown Chicago, Grandpa felt that God played a trick on him, and grandpa wasn’t laughing.
    Grandpa worked as a carpenter. On this particular day, he was building some boxes for the clothes his church was sending to an orphanage abroad. On his way home, he reached into his shirt pocket to find his glasses, but they were gone. He remembered putting them there that morning, so he drove back to the church. His search proved fruitless.
    Suddenly, he realized what happened. The glasses had slipped out of his pocket unnoticed and fallen into one of the boxes, which he had nailed shut. His brand new glasses were heading for China!
    The Great Depression was at its height, and Grandpa had six children. He had spent twenty dollars for those glasses that very morning.
    “It’s not fair,” he told God as he drove home in frustration. “I’ve been very faithful in giving of my time and money to your work, and now this.”
    Several months later, the director of the orphanage was on vacation in the United States. He wanted to visit all the churches that supported him, so he came to speak on Sunday night at my grandfather’s small church in Chicago. Grandpa and his family sat in their usual seats among the small congregation(教堂会众).
    “But most of all,” he said, “I must thank you for the glasses you sent last year.”
    “Even if I had the money, there was simply no way of replacing those glasses. Along with not being able to see well, I experienced headaches every day, so my co-workers and I were much in prayer about this. Then your boxes arrived. When my staff removed the covers, they found a pair of glasses lying on the top.” After a long pause, he continued, “Folks, when I tried on the glasses, it was as though they had been custom-made just for me! I want to thank you for being a part of that!”
    The people listened, happy for the amazing glasses. But the director surely must have confused their church with another, they thought, there were no glasses on their list of items to be sent overseas.
    But sitting quietly in the back, with tears streaming down his face, an ordinary carpenter realized the Master Carpenter had used him in an extraordinary way.
    (  ) 56. Which of the following is NOT true about Grandpa Nybakken according to the passage?
    A. He was an outgoing man and held an active attitude towards life.
    B. He had a large family to support.
    C. He was a carpenter working in the church.
    D. He was a loyal Christian.
    (  ) 57. Grandpa spent much of his time and money in church mainly to ________.
    A. help the priest do some religious work
    B. help those people in need
    C. make some woodwork for the church
    D. seek some help from God
    (  ) 58. The people in the church but Grandpa felt confused at what the director said because ________.
    A. Grandpa didn’t tell the director that he was the owner of the glasses
    B. the director wanted to return the glasses even though he liked it
    C. the director could not get such glasses in their own country
    D. the glasses were not included in the donation list
    (  ) 59. Who does “the Master Carpenter” in the last paragraph probably refer to?
    A. Grandpa’s master.                   B. One of Grandpa’s friends.  
    C. God.                      D. Grandpa’s co-worker.
    (  ) 60. Which can be the best title of the passage?

    The Healthy Habits Survey shows that only about one third of American seniors(年长者) have correct habits. Here are some findings and expert advice.
    1.How many times did you brush your teeth yesterday?
    ·Finding：About 33% of seniors brush their teeth only once a day.
    ·Step：Remove the 300 kinds of bacteria in your mouth each morning with a battery-operated toothbrush. Brush gently for 2 minutes, at least twice a day.
    2.How many times did you wash your hands or bathe yesterday?
    ·Finding：Seniors, on average, bathe fewer than 3 days a week. And nearly 30% wash their hands only 4 times a day—half of the number that doctors advise.
    ·Step：We touch our faces around 3,000 times a day-often inviting germs（病菌）to enter our mouth, nose, and eyes. Use toilet paper to avoid touching the door handle. And, most important, wash your hands often with hot running water and soap for 20 seconds.
    3. How often do you think about fighting germs?
    ·Finding：Seniors are not fighting germs as well as they should.
