    A
    Adrian’s “Amazing Race” started early when his parents realized that he, as a baby, couldn’t hear a thing, not even loud noises. In a special school for the hearing-impaired (听觉受损的)，he learned sign language and got to mix with other disabled children. However, the sight of all the disabled children communicating with one another upset his mother. She wanted him to lead a normal life. So after speaking to an advisor, she sent him to private classes where he learned to read lips and pronounce words.
    Later on, Adrian’s parents decided to send him to a regular school. But the headmaster tried to prevent them from doing so, saying regular school couldn’t take care of a special needs students. His parents were determined to take the risk and push him hard to go through his work everyday because they wanted to prove that, given the opportunity, he could do anything. Adrian made the grade and got accepted. It was a big challenge. The pace （节奏）was faster so he had to sit at the front of the class and really pay attention to the teacher, which wasn’t always easy. But he stuck to it and did a lot of extra work after school.
    The efforts made by Adrian and his parents paid off. Adrian graduated with good grades and got into a top high school. He also achieved a lot in life outside school. He developed a love for the outdoors and went to Nepal to climb mountains. He even entered the World Yacht Race 05/06--- being the first hearing-impaired Asian to do so.
    But none of these achievements would have been possible without one of the most important lessons from his mother.” “If you believe in yourself and work hard, you can achieve great results.” She often said.
    小题1:How did Adrian communicate with other children in the special school?
    A．By speaking.B．By using sign language
    C．By reading lipsD．By making loud noises
    小题2:Adrian’s parents decided to send him to a regular school because          .
    A．they wanted him to live a normal life
    B．they wanted to prove the headmaster wrong
    C．he wouldn’t mix with other disabled children
    D．he wasn’t taken good care of in the special school
    小题3:How did Adrian finally succeed in his study?
    A．He did a lot of outdoor activities.
    B．He was pushed hard to study every day.
    C．He attended private classes after school.
    D．He worked very hard both in and after class
    小题4:Why is Adrian’s life described as an “Amazing Race”?
    A．He did very well in his study
    B．He succeeded in entering a regular school
    C．He reached his goals in spite of his disability
    D．He took part in the World Yacht Race 05/06

    小题1:B
    小题2:A
    小题3:D
    小题4:C

    这是一篇关于一位听障青年（ a hearing-impaired young man）自强不息的励志故事,其中包括了母亲的呕心沥血，永不言弃的决心。本文呼吁家庭和社会应对残疾人有关爱之心，同时也在无形当中起到了鼓励青少年永不言败，自强不息。
    小题1:此题考查文章的细节。根据文章的第一段的第二句话可得出答案。
    小题2:此题属于推理判断题。C选项具有一定的迷惑性，父母亲并不是因为校长的话而把儿子送往学校的，所以他不是母亲作出此决定的原因。C与D明显错误。无论把儿子送往“private classes”还是“ a regular school”都是想让儿子过上正常的生活。
    小题3:此题也属于推理判断题。做对本题的关键是要看清题目中的“in his study”,否则就容易误选。在根据第二段的最后一句话“But he stuck to it and did a lot of extra work after school.”可推断出答案。
    小题4:此题考查对文章的深层理解。A、B、C涉及到的都是表层上的内容。

    Jonathan James looks like just another kid about to graduate from high school. But this 19-year-old Swede is anything but ordinary, from the computer in his parents’ home he helps the US Federal Bureau of Investigation(FBI) find out the world’s most wanted cyber criminals(网络犯罪分子).
    Jonathan first made headlines when he and another Swede, Fredrik Bjoerck, found out the maker of the “Melissa” virus(病毒) in March 1999. He came to the aid of the FBI again on May 7, finding out the suspected(嫌疑的) sender of the dangerous “I LOVE YOU” virus. The suspect was caught in Manila on May 8.
    Jonathan’s special skills are in hot demand as officials around the world express alarm at the “virtual” crimewave. In between studying for final exams, hanging out with friends and refereeing his younger brother’s football matches, the quiet, gentle teenager also gives lessons on e-security(电子安全) to large companies. He reads a lot and exchanges information with other computer experts to know much about the latest tricks of the hacker (黑客) trade.
    Many companies have already tried to employ him, but he is not interested at the moment. Instead, he plans to begin law school in the autumn at Sweden’s Uppsala University and start up his own e-security company.
    Although he works with the FBI now, his family insists he’s just “a regular kid”. “Jonathan is a great kid, he has his friends and he does a lot more than just play with the computer,” his little sister Tessa said, adding that he helps the FBI because “he likes to help”, not because he’s looking for fame and recognition.
    When the world was hit by the “Love Bug” virus, Jonathan was too busy preparing a speech on e-security to look into the problem. “Finally on May 7, I had some free time, so I began looking.” Within a few hours, he had found the suspect and e-mailed his method and results to the FBI. He said his work on the “Melissa” virus, which took three weeks to solve, was a big help in finding the suspect so quickly.

    C．his little sister’s talk about his good qualities as a regular kid and a good programmer
    D．his speech on e-security to many computer companies after his fight against hackers

    We spent a day in the country, picking wild flowers. With the car full of flowers we were going home. On our way back my wife noticed a cupboard (柜厨) outside a furniture shop. It was tall and narrow. “Buy it, ” my wife said at once. “We’ll carry it home on the roof rack. I’ve always wanted one like that.”
    What could I do? Ten minutes later I was ￡20 poorer; and the cupboard was tied on the roof rack. It was six feet long and eighteen inches square, quite heavy too.
    In the gathering darkness I drove slowly. Other drivers seemed unusually polite that evening. The police even stopped traffic to let us through. Carrying furniture was a good idea.
    After a time my wife said, “There’s a long line of cars behind. Why don’t they overtake, I wonder?” In fact a police car did overtake. The two officers inside looked at us seriously as they passed. But then, with great kindness, they led us through the rush-hour traffic. The police car stopped at our village church. One of the officers came to me.
    “Right, sir, ” he said. “Do you need any more help?”
    I was a bit puzzled. “Thanks, officer, ” I said. “You have been very kind. I live just on the road.”
    He was staring at our car, first at the flowers, then at the cupboard. “Well, well, ” he said, laughing. “It’s a cupboard you’ve got there! We thought it was something else.”
    My wife began to laugh. The truth hit me like a stone between the eyes. I smiled at the officer. “Yes, it’s a cupboard, but thanks again.” I drove home as fast as I could.

    John Steinbeck once said, “All American believe they are born fishermen. For a man to admit to a distaste in fishing would be like speaking publicly against mother-love or hating moonlight”.
    I can’t say I’m the biggest John Steinbeck fan. Actually, the only thing I can ever remember reading by him was “The Pearl” when I was in middle school, but I couldn’t agree more with the man when it comes to fishing. When I am on a boat in the middle of the lay Lake, fishing off the shores of the Florida Keys for tarpon or catching rainbow trout in the Shoshone River of Wyoming. Fishing is my life.
    According to the American Sports Fishing Association, the fishing industry brings in more than $ 116 billion per year from fishermen across the country.
    Though a beautiful picture to imagine, fishing is much more than that. Fishing is a way of life from many people and a way to escape everyday stress. Being a fisherman makes me a member of a wonderful group of people extending to all walks of life. Even President Bush can be found fishing on his farm in Texas with his good friend Roland Martin when the jobs gets too stressful.
    I can remember fishing with my grandfather when I was 5 years old on his boat at Lake Michel. Although I didn’t understand what I was doing, I did know that my grandfather was happy and that made me happy. Since then I’ve spent the past 16 years on the rivers and lakes of Alabama.
    After days of practice, before and after work, I slowly developed an understanding of fishing. My boss, Ric Horst, took me back to the Shoshone, and I managed to bring in a 19-inch cutthroat trout. Fishing with Ric was a life-changing experience for me. He not only showed me how to fish correctly, but also told me how fishing could be a way to escape your problems.
    Since then, prime-time season seems to take forever to arrive.
    Now, with the ending of February and beginning of March is sight, the excitement of heading out to Lake Tus caloosa or Lake Lurleen before classes and catching something has finally returned.
    小题1:What John Steinbeck said in the first paragraph implies that ______
    A．American are believed to be the offspring of fishermen.
    B．it is unthinkable for an American to admit his dislike of fishing.
    C．all American are expert at fishing.
    D．those who dislike fishing would not love their mother.
    小题2:The writer came to understand the real meaning of fishing ______.
    A．when he was reading “The Pearl” by John Steinbeck
    B．when he went fishing with his grandfather at Lake Mitchell
    C．after he had spent 16 years on the rivers and lakes of Alabama
    D．after he went fishing with his boss, Ric Horst on the Shoshone
    小题3:According to the author, ______.
    A．people can get to know VIPs when fishing
    B．people can smooth away all the troubles by fishing
    C．fishing is a way of communication
    D．fishing is a way of life for most American people
    小题4:What is the purpose of the writing?
    A．To describe the writer’s experience and understanding of fishing.
    B．To explain the reason why so many Americans like fishing.
    C．To make others understand the industry of fishing.
    D．To express his opinions about fishing in different time of the year.

    Outside her shabby cottage, old Mrs. Tailor was hanging out laundry on a wire line, unaware that some children lay hidden in the leaves of a nearby tree watching her every move. They were determined to find out if she really was a witch.
    They watched as she took a broomstick to clean the dirt from her stone steps. But, much to their disappointment, she did not mount the broomstick and take flight. Suddenly, the old lady’s work was interrupted by the cackling of her hen—a signal that an egg had been laid in the warm nest on top of the haystack.
    The old broomstick was put aside as she hobbled off towards the haystack followed by Sooty, a black cat she had rescued from a fox trap some time back. With only three legs, it was hard for Sooty to keep up with the old lady. The cat provided proof—the children were sure that only a witch could own a black cat with three legs.
    There, standing on a wooden box, was Mrs. Tailor, stretching out to gather her precious egg. Taking the egg in one of her hands, she began to climb down when, without warning, the box broke and the old lady fell.
    “We have to got and help her,” whispered Amy.
    “What if it is a trick?” replied Ben.
    “Don’t be silly, Ben. If she were a witch, she would have turned us into frogs already,” reasoned Meg. “Come on Amy, let’s go.” The girls climbed down the tree and ran all the way to the haystack.
    Approaching carefully, they could see a wound on the old lady’s face. She had knocked her head on a stone and her ankle was definitely broken. “Go and get Dad,” Amy yelled to her brother. “Tell him about the accident.”
    The boys did not need another excuse to leave. They ran as fast as they could for help, hoping that Mrs. Tailor would not wake and turn the girls into frogs.
    小题1:. Why were the children hiding in the tree?
    A．They wanted to watch Mrs. Tailor do her housework closely.
    B．They were playing a hide-and-seek game
    C．They wanted to find out if the rumors about Mrs. Tailor were true
    D．They were pretending to be spies
    小题2:. Mrs. Tailor stopped sweeping when____
    A．her front steps were cleanB．she noticed the children in the tree
    C．she was ready to take a flightD．she heard the hen cackling
    小题3:. Ben did not rush in help Mrs. Tailor because_____
    A．he thought that she could be tricking them
    B．he knew that they could not have been in the tree
    C．he did not see the old lady fall down
    D．he was afraid of the three-legged cat
    小题4:. Which of these old sayings best suits the story’s lesson for us?
    A．Make hay while the sun shines.
    B．Never judge a book by its cover.
    C．People in glasshouses should not throw stones.
    D．A bird in the hands worth two in the bush.
