    My father was a foreman of a sugar-cane plantation in Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico. My first job was to drive the oxen that ploughed the cane fields. I would walk behind an ox, guiding him with a broomstick. For $ 1 a day, I worked eight hours straight, with no food breaks.
    It was very tedious work, but it prepared me for life and taught me many lasting lessons. Because the plantation owners were always watching us, I had to be on time every day and work as hard as I could. I’ve never been late for any job since. I also learned about being respectful and faithful to the people you work for. More important, I earned my pay; it never entered my mind to say I was sick just because I didn’t want to work.
    I was only six years old, but I was doing a man’s job. Our family needed every dollar we could make because my father never earned more than $ 18 a week. Our home was a three-room wood shack with a dirty floor and no toilet. Nothing made me prouder than bringing home money to help my mother, father, two brothers and three sisters. This gave me self-esteem(自尊心), one of the most important things a person can have.
    When I was seven, I got work at a golf course near our house. My job was to stand down the fairway and spot the balls as they landed, so the golfers could find them. Losing a ball meant you were fired, so I never missed one. Some nights I would lie in bed and dreamt of making thousands of dollars by playing golf and being able to buy a bicycle.
    The more I dreamed, the more I thought. Why not? I made my first golf club out of guava limb(番石榴树枝) and a piece of pipe. Then I hammered an empty tin can into the shape of a ball. And finally I dug two small holes in the ground and hit the ball back and forth. I practiced with the same devotion and intensity. I learned working in the field — except now I was driving golf balls with club, not oxen with a broomstick.
    小题1:The writer’s first job was _______.
    A．to stand down the fairway at a golf course
    B．to watch over the sugar-cane plantation
    C．to drive the oxen that ploughed the cane fields
    D．to spot the balls as they landed so the golfers could find them
    小题2:The word “tedious” in Paragraph 2 most probably means _______.
    A．difficultB．boringC．interestingD．unusual
    小题3:The writer learned that_______ from his first job.
    A．he should work for those who he liked most
    B．he should work longer than what he was expected
    C．he should never fail to say hello to his owner
    D．he should be respectful and faithful to the people he worked for
    小题4:_______ gave the writer serf-esteem.
    A．Having a family of eight people
    B．Owning his own golf course
    C．Bringing money back home to help the family
    D．Helping his father with the work on the plantation
    小题5:Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
    A．He wanted to be a successful golfer.
    B．He wanted to run a golf course near his house.
    C．He was satisfied with the job he got on a plantation.
    D．He wanted to make money by guiding oxen with a broomstick.

    Mary Cassatt is one of the first great women American painters. At first her father did not want her to become an artist. But she followed her dreams and became an artist.She was born on
    May 22, 1844, and lived in Europe for several years as a child.
    Her family returned to the United States and, at age 16, Mary attended the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. Four years later she decided she couldn't learn anything fresh and practical in Philadelphia, so she returned to Europe. There she studied the skills of the masters in Rome, Seville, Antwerp, and Paris.

    Mary never married and, in 1877, her parents and sister moved to Europe to join her. Mary devoted much of her time to them for the next 18 years to their care. Mary painted until 1914 when her failing eyesight made it impossible to continue. She spent the later years of her life in Paris. She died in 1926 at the age of 82.

    Bill Javis took over our village’s news-agency at a time of life when most of us only wanted to relax. He just thought he would like something but not too much to do, and the news-a­gency was ready-made. The business produced little enough for him, but Bill was a man who only wanted the simplicity and order and regularity of the job. He had been a long-serving sailor, and all his life had done everything by the clock.
    Every day he opened his shop at 6:00 a. m. to catch the early trade; the papers arrived on his doorstep before that. Many of Bill’s customers were city workers, and the shop was convenient for the station. Business was tailing off by 10 o’clock, so at eleven sharp Bill closed for lunch. It was hard luck on anybody who wanted a paper or magazine in the after­noon, for most likely Bill would be down on the river bank, fishing, and his neatest competitor was five kilometers away. Sometimes in the afternoon-, the evening paper landed on the doorway, and at 4 o’ clock Bill reopened his shop. The evening rush lasted till seven, and it was worthwhile.
    He lived in a flat above the ship, alone. Except in the very bad weather, you always knew where to find him in the af­ternoon, as I have said. Once, on a sunny afternoon, I walked home along the river bank from a shopping trip to the village. By my watch it was three minutes past four, so I was aston­ished to see Bill sitting there on his little chair with a line in the, water. He had no luck, I could, see, but he was making no effort to move. “What’s wrong, Bill?” I called out from the path.
    For answer, he put a hand in his jacket and took out a big, golden object. For a moment I had no idea what it could be, and then it suddenly went off with a noise like a fire en­gine. Stopping the bell, Bill held the thing up and called back, "Ten to four, you see, and this is dead right. "
    I had never known anyone carrying a brass alarm clock round with him before.
    5. Bill Javis became a news-agent when ________.
    A. he need the money.                        B. he decided to take things easy
    C. he was quite an old man                 D. he gave up clock-repairing
    6. Bill opened the shop so early in the day because ________.
    A. he liked to do as much as possible before he went to work
    B. the shop had to be open when the morning papers came
    C. he was never sure of time
    D. it was then that he did a lot of business
    7. On that sunny afternoon, the writer was surprised when he saw Bill because ________.
    A. he thought it was late for Bill to be still fishing
    B. he thought Bill was ill, since he was not moving at all
    C. Bill had not caught anything, and that seemed strange
    D. Bill stayed in his flat
    8. From the information given in the passage, who or what do you think was wrong?
    A. The bell was; it must have gone off at the wrong time.
    B. Bill was; he had dropped off to sleep.
    C. The writer’s watch was fast.
    D. Bill’s clock was wrong; it was old.

    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项。
    A
    Imagine landing in a foreign country where you cannot speak the language, understand the culture and don’t know anybody. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a friend who could help you out?
    John Smith, an English explorer who landed in America in 1607, found the best friend ever. She was a Native American named Pocahontas (1595-1617). And she did more than teach Smith the language: she saved his life, twice.
    Smith was captured by members of Pocahontas’s tribe (部落) and was going to be killed. But for some reason, the Chief’s daughter, Pocahontas, felt sorry for Smith (who was probably the first white man she had ever seen) and threw her body over his to protect him. Smith returned safely to the small village he was living in.
    During the winter the English settlers did not know how to get food from nature. Pocahontas often brought food for Smith and his friends.
    A year later Pocahontas’s father tried to kill Smith again because the Native Americans were very scared the English would try to take over their land. Pocahontas warned him and he was able to escape.
    Later she became a Christian and eventually married an Englishman named John Rolfe.
    She spent the last year of her life in London.
    Pocahontas has become an American legend (传奇). Her life story has been re-created in many books and films, including Disney’s 1995 film, Pocahontas.
    One of the reasons she is so popular is that many Europeans look at Pocahontas as an excellent example of how a minority can adjust into the majority. Pocahontas is also respected because of her selfless love. She proved that people can be kind and loving even to people of a different race or culture. John Smith was very different from Pocahontas but she could see he was a good man and that was all that mattered. No race or country owns goodness, love and loyalty.
    1.What difficulties might early European settlers meet in America EXCEPT ______?
    A. the fierce conflict with Native Americans
    B. bad-tempered natives who enjoyed killing
    C. unfamiliarity with a foreign land
    D. lack of food in winter
    2.Pocahontas saved John Smith twice because ______.
    A. he was the first white man she had ever seen in her life
    B. she wanted to become a Christian and marry an Englishman
    C. she believed in general kindness even to people of a different race
    D. she was on the settlers’ side and against her cruel father
    3.Which is NOT an element to make Pocahontas a legend?
    A. Her tribal background and her marriage to a white settler.
    B. Her selfless help to people regarded as enemy of her tribe.
    C. Her complicated life story different from common people’s.
    D. The recreation of her life story in the 1995 Disney film.
    4.According to the text, Europeans think Pocahontas _____.
    A. was brave to break away from her own tribe
    B. set a good example for other natives to accept the white settlers
    C. was a selfless Christian who can love her enemy
    D. was open to a more advanced culture
    5.What can we infer from the passage?
    A. The battles between early settlers and Native Americans resulted from their               fighting for land.
    B. The Europeans think the early settlers should have learned to adjust to the local cultures.
    C. The creation of America is based on the settlers’ victory over the Native  Americans.
    D. People from different cultures can never really get along well with each other.
    B
    Chinese students aren’t the only ones who have a sleep loss problem. In Australia, teenagers are also missing out on, on average, one hour’s sleep every night during the school week.
    Organized activities and homework push bedtimes later, the first large-scale Australian study of children’s sleeping habits has revealed (显示). Their sleep deprivation (剥夺) is enough to cause “serious drop-offs in school performance, attention and memory”, and governments should consider later or flexible school start times, said the study’s leader, Tim Olds.
    His survey, of more than 4,000 children aged 9 to 18, found those who slept least did not watch more television but spent their time socializing (相处) with family or friends or listening to music.
    “Almost all children get up at 7 or 7:15 — they have to get to school on time,” said Olds. He favors a later start over an earlier finish because he believes organized sports and activities would still consume the latter end of the day.
    Olds’research also establishes lack of sleep as a cause of weight gain in children, and a possible source of future problems with depression, anxiety and increased susceptibility (易感性) to illness.
    It was already known that overweight children sleep less, but Professor Olds found sleep duration (时长) was strongly linked to weight across the full range of body sizes. The thinnest children sleep 20 minutes more than the obese. This showed being overweight had no specific effect on sleep patterns, and it was more likely that shorter sleep times stimulate (刺激) appetite and make kids hungry.
    The US National Sleep Foundation says teenagers aged 13 to 18 need eight to nine hours’ sleep a night. Younger school-aged kids need 9 to 11 hours.
    On that basis, Professor Olds said, half of Australian children are under-sleeping on weekdays and a quarter on weekends.
    6. The Australian students surveyed don’t sleep enough because they spend more time on the following EXCEPT _____.
    A. organized activities and homework
    B. communication with friends and family
    C. watching television programs
    D. enjoying music 
    7. What effects does lack of sleep directly have on the students according to the survey?
    A. They become overweight but begin to eat less than before.
    B. They feel more depressed and anxious about their school work.
    C. They are more likely to be affected with illness in the future.
    D. They pay less attention in class and their memory declines.
    8. Which of the following suggestions did Mr. Olds raise?
    A. The students should go to bed earlier to have longer sleeping time.
    B. The students should participate less in organized activities.
    C. The school should put off the start time in the morning.
    D. The school should finish earlier in the afternoon.
    9. What does "obese" in the sixth paragraph mean?
    A. average      B. fat     C. sleepless   D. overeating
    10. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
    A. Australian students usually take part in activities in the afternoon.
    B. More students are short of sleep on weekends than on weekdays.
    C. Being overweight has an effect on the length of the sleeping time.
    D. The survey suggests that teenagers need 8-9 hours’ sleep a night.
    C
    By day he is just a normal cat but when the lights go out, he glows (发光) in the dark.
    Scientists have genetically modified (更改) a cat as part of an experiment that could lead to treatments for diseases.
    Named Mr. Green Genes, he looks like a six-month-old cat but, under ultraviolet (紫外线的) light, his eyes, gums (牙龈) and tongue glow green. That is the result of a genetic experiment at the Audubon Center for Research of Endangered Species in New Orleans, US.
    Mr. Green Genes is the first fluorescent (荧光的) cat in the US and probably the world, said Betsy Dresser, the center's director.
    The researchers made him so they could learn whether a gene could be introduced harmlessly into a cat's genetic sequence (次序).
    If so, it would be the first step in a process that could lead to the development of ways to treat diseases via gene therapy (治疗).
    The gene, which was added to Mr. Green Genes' DNA, has no effect on his health, Ms Dresser said.
    Cats are ideal for this project because their genetic makeup is similar to that of humans, said Dr Martha Gomez, a scientist at the center.
    To show that the gene went where it was supposed to go, the researchers settled on one that would glow.
