So we got one puppy (小狗) 4  we too had no children.
    He flew into the house with the 5  of a Formula 1 (一级方程式赛车). In several minutes he ran over all the house, 6  from my shoulder onto the bed, and ended up in the 7  , where my wife washed him with 8  care.

    Every evening I went out walking with him. I could not know who was walking whom 13  one evening, when, tired from work, I 14  the walk. The dog was very angry and dragged me out.

    Before she appeared on the reality show(真人秀) Britain’s Got Talent, Susan Boyle was just an ordinary middle-aged British woman. Now all this is going to change.
    She lives in a house with her cat Pebbles in a tiny Scottish town. Because of learning difficulties, she doesn’t have much education. But what she does have is a very good voice. As a kid, she sang in church and choirs and school plays. For a living, she sang at local pubs.
    When she took the stage on April 10th her hair was untidy and her clothes seemed just one step up from rags. The audience laughed at her.
    But then she opened her mouth. A few bars into the song and the laughing audience went silent. A beautiful voice was singing I Dreamed a Dream from the musical Les Miserables. Everyone was amazed. At the end of her song, the audience jumped to their feet and applauded wildly.
    Almost overnight, Susan became a household name. She won fans and millions of admirers. Her online videos have drawn over 85.2 million hits.
    Susan’s story proved the truth of an old saying: “Never judge the book by its cover.” Susan may look ordinary, and doesn’t have much dress sense, but she can certainly sing.

    The Basics of Math—Made Clear
    Basic Math introduces students to the basic concepts of mathematics, as well as the fundamentals of more tricky areas. These 30 fantastic lectures are designed to provide students with an understanding of arithmetic and to prepare them for Algebra(代数) and beyond.
    The lessons in Basic Math cover every basic aspect of arithmetic. They also look into exponents(指数), the order of operations, and square roots. In addition to learning how to perform various mathematical operations, students discover why these operations work, how a particular mathematical topic relates to other branches of mathematics, and how these operations can be used practically.
    Basic Math starts from the relatively easier concepts and gradually moves on to the more troublesome ones, so as to allow for steady and sure understanding of the material by students. The lectures offer students the chance to “make sense” of mathematical knowledge that may have seemed so frightening. They also help students prepare for college mathematics and overcome their anxiety about this amazing—and completely understandable—field of study.
    By the conclusion of the course, students will have improved their understanding of basic math. They will be able to clear away the mystery(神秘性) of mathematics and face their studies with more confidence than they ever imagined. In addition, they will strengthen their ability to accept new and exciting mathematical challenges.
    Professor H. Siegel, honored by Kentucky Educational Television as “the best math teacher in America,” is a devoted teacher and has a gift for explaining mathematical concepts in ways that make them seem clear and obvious. From the basic concrete ideas to the more abstract problems, he is master in making math lectures learner-friendlier and less scary.
    With a PhD in Mathematics Education from Georgia State University, Dr. Siegel teaches mathematics at Central Arizona College. His courses include various make-up classes and a number of lectures for future primary school teachers.
    If the course fails to provide complete satisfaction to you, you can easily exchange it for any other course that we offer. Or you can get your money back.
    小题1:What does the course Basic Math mainly cover?
    A．Algebra.B．College Mathematics.

    In Greek mythology（神话）, the gods punished Sisyphus by forcing him to roll a rock up a steep hill for eternity（来世）. But he was probably better off than if they’d forced him to sit and stare into space until the end of time, conclude the authors of a new study on keeping busy. They found that people who have something to do, even something pointless, are happier than people who sit around.
    “The general phenomenon I’m interested in is why people are too busy doing what they are doing in modern society,” says Christopher K. Hsee, of the University of Chicago. “People are running around, working hard, the way beyond the basic level.” Sure, there are reasons, like making a living, earning money, and so on. But, Hsee says, “I think there’s something deeper: We have extra energy and we want to avoid idleness.”
    In a study 98 students were asked to complete two surveys. After they had completed the first they were made to wait 15 minutes to receive the next one. They were given a choice of either handing in the first survey nearby or at a more distant location they had to walk to. Whichever option they chose, they received a chocolate bar. Not everyone chose to go to the faraway location. Two-thirds chose the lazy option. Yet those who chose to stay busy by going to the faraway location were found to be happier than those who had stayed put.
    But if the chocolate bars offered at the  two locations were different, they were more likely to choose the far location—because they could make up a good and acceptable reason for the trip, Hsee and his colleagues say.
    Hsee thinks it may be possible to use this principle—people like being busy, and they like being able to show being busy right or reasonable—to benefit society. “If we can find a way for idle people to engage in activity that is at least not harmful, I think it is better than destructive business,” he says. Hsee himself has been known to  give a research assistant a useless task when he doesn’t have anything to do, so he isn’t sitting around the office getting bored and depressed.
    小题1:The author starts the passage with the Greek mythology story to ________.
    A．make it easier to understand the passage
    B．draw readers’ attention to Greek culture
    C．show Greek people enjoyed being busy
    D．bring about the subject of the passage
    小题2:According to Hsee, people are busy in modern society because they want to _________.
    A．make others think they are not lazy
    B．keep their energy at the basic level
    C．earn more money to support their family
    D．avoid the state of having nothing to do
    小题3:The underlined phrase “stayed put” in Paragraph 3 probably means __________.
    A．remained thereB．kept occupiedC．got aroundD．stayed awake
    小题4:How does Hsee’s assistant probably feel while performing a task?
    A．Blue.B．Empty.C．Contented.D．Trapped.

    You’re standing with your classmates. Everyone is talking—except you. Perhaps you’re afraid they will laugh at what you say. Or maybe you just aren’t brave enough to speak.
    I’ve been there, and so have many other people all over the world. Shyness is like a snake that crawls(爬进) into our mouths and stops us speaking. But we shouldn’t let it stay there.
    I am 29 years old. Even today, that snake still sometimes visits me. But when I was in high school, I was so shy that I wouldn’t talk to anyone except my parents and best friends. If a stranger asked me the way to a local shop, it was as if I’d forgotten how to talk.
    One summer, I got a job in a restaurant and that helped a lot. It meant I had to talk to customers. I had to tell them how much their meal cost. I had to ask them if they wanted to drink Coke or Sprite. I had to tell the people in the kitchen if someone wanted pickle（泡菜）on their sandwich.
    This job taught me how to speak with people.
    You may not be old enough to find a part-time job. But you can look for other chances to speak with people. You can offer to help an old woman carry her heavy bag. Or you can go to get a newspaper for your family.
    If you do these things for a while, the “shyness” snake will soon begin to leave you alone. It’ll look for another mouth to crawl into.
    小题1:The example in the first paragraph is used to          .
    A．show that everyone has the right to speak in class
    B．tell readers that it is not right to laugh at others
    C．introduce the fact that many people have a shyness problem
    D．argue that it is alright to keep silent in public
    小题2:The underlined sentence in the second paragraph probably means       .
    A．he’s been in many situations that make other people feel shy
    B．he is confident that he can find a way to get over shyness
    C．he is sad because he knows he will always be shy
    D．like many other people he once was troubled by shyness
    小题3:The author’s duties in the restaurant included           .
    A．cooking the meals for customers
    B．taking the customers’ orders
    C．discussing the menu with the manager
    D．helping people in the kitchen
    小题4:Who was the article written for?
    A．Shy early teenagers.
    B．College students.
    C．People who work at a restaurant.
    D．People who need a part-time job.

    The Gullah people in the southern US have honored their culture for more than 100 years. Living mainly on the Sea Islands and coastal areas of South Carolina, Georgia and Floride, the Gullah people, an African-American group, have a rich culture including their own language. It is a Creole language created by slaves who came to the US from the West Africa in the 1800s. It combines West African languages with English.
    For many years efforts have been made to save the Gullah language. One project began in 1979. Its goal was to translate the New Testament part of the Bible into Gullah. Experts say that it was a difficult process because Gullah is not a written language. It is a spoken language only.
    A team of Gullah speakers began working on the translation to make the Bible easier to understand for those who spoke Gullah as their main language. The Gullah version is called De Nyew Testament. It is written in English on one side of the page, and next to it, there is a Gullah translation. De Nyew Testament was published by the American Bible Society. The project also received help from the Summer Institute of Linguistics, Wycliffe Bible Translators, the United Bible Societies and the Penn Centre
    Experts believe that the translated Bible is a major step towards saving the Gullah language and traditions. “This is more than a Bible translation,” says Robert Hodgson, at the American Bible Society. “De Nyew Testament raises the Gullah language and culture to a new level.” Ardell Greene is a member of the translation team. She calls the book “a treasure”. She says that the Gullah version of the Bible will be read in churches and will help young people keep the Gullah language alive.
    小题1:According to the passage, De Nyew Testament can be best seen as _______.
    A．a good version of the Bible
    B．something difficult to understand
    C．a spoken form of the Gullah language
    D．the effort to save the Gullah language
    小题2:Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
    A．Gullah communities can be found in the southern US.
    B．Gullah is influenced by both English and West African languages.
    C．De Nyew Testament is a complete Bible translation.
    D．Ardell Greene thinks highly of De Nyew Testament.
    小题3:What does this passage mainly focus on?
    A．Efforts to save the Gullah language.
    B．Different versions of the Bible.
    C．The history of the Gullah people.
    D．The culture of the Gullah people.
