     Jennifer got off the bus from the university and began walking towards the flat she shared with two
other students. _1_ She picked up a wire basket and walked towards the back of the shop, where the
rice was kept. The shop was divided by three long aisles, with rows of shelves crammed with all sorts
of things. Except for her and Mr. Patel, the owner, there were only two other people there. They were
two teenage boys, and they were standing at the end of one of the aisles.
     She glanced at them as she passed. They were both wearing long, oldfashioned overcoats and they
looked rather ridiculous in them because the coats were too big. _2_ "Watch out, stupid," she heard
one of them whisper to the other. She walked on to the next aisle and found the rice she was looking
for.
     Then she heard something else. _3_ She peered through a gap in the shelf and caught a glimpse of
one of the boys bending down. She saw him pick up a tin of food. But instead of putting it in the
shopping basket, he dropped it into the inside pocket of his long overcoat. Jennifer glanced back down
the aisle. She could see Mr. Patel at the cash till, still checking through his list.
     _4_ The boys still had their backs to her. "Come on, let's get out of here," she heard one of them
say. At the same time, she saw one of them put another tin in his overcoat pocket. They moved away
from her. She could no longer see what they were doing or hear what they were saying.
     When she got to the still, the two boys were in front of her. She watched them pay for the few things
they had in the basket. They had both buttoned their coats and fastened them with their belts. _5_ He
even smiled at them as they were about to leave. Jennifer opened her mouth to say something.
A. It sounded like a tin dropping on the floor.
B. But such things were popular with some teenagers at the time.
C. Then she looked through the gap in the shelf again.
D. On her way she had to buy some food and stopped in one of the shops in the street.
E. They were picking many things to their basket.
F. Mr. Patel was so friendly to his customers.
G. Mr. Patel did not seem suspicious at all.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A,B,C,D)中,选出最佳选项。

  The United States will introduce a new and comprehensive (综合的) exam for students who seek to study in America and other English-speaking countries, Xin Hua News Agency(新华社) reported from New York.

  The exam, which stands for a great change from the current English level test, was disclosed by Theresa Chang-whei Jen, associate director of the International Service of the US College Board, America's leading educational organization.

  The Advanced Placement International English Language ( APIEL) will be offered for the first time throughout the world on May 10, 2002, said Jen.

  However, the APIEL is a strange title to most Chinese students, and it is unlikely to soon gain the similar popularity of other already existing exams, such as the TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign language) , the GRE (Graduate Record Examination ), or the IELTS (International English Language Testing System).

  “I have never heard of such a test and I would prefer the IELTS if I need another exam,”said Xu Jingyan, a graduating student from Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics (北京航天航空大学), who wants to study in England and has already taken the TOEFL.

  Most of Xu's classmates have never heard of the APIEL.“The APIEL is designed for international students who wish to get university studies in English-speaking countries, including the United States, Britain, Canada, and Australia.”said Jen.

  The APIEL has been adopted, said Jen, because the TOEFL can no longer accurately (准确地) reflect the abilities of students to use the English language comprehensively in an academic environment. Xin Hua reported that a fairly large number of foreign students who earned high scores in TOEFL exam turned out to be very ordinary educational performers after admission(录取).

  Compared with the TOEFL, the APIEL, measures a student's ability to read, write, speak and understand English through testing his or her skills in listening comprehension, speaking with accuracy (精确) and resourcefulness (机智), and writing with clarity (明晰) and fluency (流畅), Jen said.

C.A student will have to take the APIEL if he or she wants to study in English-speaking countries from 2002 on.

D.Chinese students will prefer the IELTS rather than the APIEL even in the future.

3.The underlined word current (in Paragraph 2) means ________.

[  ]

A.modern

  Imagine what you will be doing in seven years.Are you getting your first job or just studying in another country?

  When the Taiwan band Relax One(轻松玩)was formed in 1998, they wanted to release their own albums.And now they have.

  When the four group members came to the mainland to promote their first album “I Want Relax One”, they told Teens how they made their dream come true.

  Guitarist Xiaomao set up his own music studio when he was only 17 after he graduated from Danjiang High School.This is the same high school from which other stars graduated, including Jay Chou and Monster from Mayday.

  “It doesn’t mean you are a loser simply because you don’t like school,” Xiaomao believed.He had a good time hanging around with music lovers.Then he met drummer A-kui, who was rather rebellious at that time.

  Both A-kui’s parents are high school teachers.Born in such a family meant few choices for him-going to a good university and finding a decent(体面的)job seemed to be his future.A-kui was already on that road, being a top student in one of the top high schools in Taiwan.

  “But I didn’t want to be planned,” said A-kui.He took up drumming.The reason that he didn’t choose guitar or bass was simply that they were too costly.

  “To learn to play drums, all you need is a pair of drumsticks,” A-kui said with a smile.“My family didn’t want me to do music so I didn’t have the money to buy a guitar.”?

  Xiaorenguo was A-kui’s fellow student in Alethia University, majoring in information management.Being infected by A-kui’s enthusiasm for music, he began playing bass(贝司).

  They formed a band.Parents’ objections, financial pressure and changing of band members-nothing stopped their dream.

  And then lead vocalist(主唱)Summer, who now writes all the songs, joined in 1998.

  Summer loved singing when she was a kid.After graduating from Fu Jen University, she began her exploration of music.

  Her voice and talent for writing songs were acknowledged(得到承认)before she joined the band.She had written songs for other singers, such as China Dolls(中国娃娃).Some producers even tried to persuade her to develop a career on her own.

  But Summer insisted on staying with the band.“We are like a family,” Summer explained.
