    It was getting dark and snow was coming down. Joe was driving home. He’d been unemployed since the factory closed. Most of his friends had left, but he stayed on. After all, he was born here.
    Suddenly he saw a lady standing on the side of the road and pulled up. She was worried. No one had stopped to help her. Was he going to hurt her? He looked poor and hungry. Joe knew how she felt and said, “My name is Joe and I’m here to help you.” All she had was a flat tire, but for an old lady, that was bad enough. Joe changed the tire, but he got dirty and his hands were hurt. She wanted to pay Joe and said any amount would have been all right. Joe never thought twice about the money and there were plenty who had given him a hand in the past. He had lived his whole life that way. He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who needed help, she could give that person the assistance that they needed.
    Later the lady went in a dingy-looking restaurant to grab a bite to eat. The cash register was like the telephone of an out-of-work actor----it didn’t ring much. The waitress, who was nearly eight months pregnant, brought a clean towel to her with a sweet smile. The old lady remembered Joe. After the waitress brought the change from a 100-dollar bill, she found the lady gone and something written on a piece of paper, “Someone once helped me out----the way I’m helping you. If you really want to pay me back, don’t let the chain of love end with you.”
    That night the waitress gave her sleeping husband a soft kiss and whispered, “Everything’s going to be all right. I love you, Joe.”

    I came to study in the United States a year ago .Yet I did not know the real American society until I was injured in a car accident because after the accident I had to see a doctor and go to court.
    After the accident .my roommate called a doctor for me. I was very grateful and determined to repay him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $200 for what he had done. I was astonished. He had good reason to charge me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible for my injury, I’d have to have a good lawyer. And only a good doctor can help me get a good lawyer .Now that he had helped me find a good doctor, it was only fair that I should pay him.
    But every day I went to see the doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three patients at the same time, and often stop treating one so as to see another. Yet he charged me $115 each time .The final examination report consisted of ten lines, and it cost me $215.
    My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all. He knew very well the other party was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited to collect his money. He was so irresponsible that I decided to dismiss him. And he made me pay him $770.
    Now I had to act as my own lawyer. Due to my inexperience, I told the insurance company the date I was leaving America. Knowing that, they played for time…and I left without getting a cent.
    My experiences taught me two things about America: firstly, in a country like America money is everything. It is more important than friendship, honor or professional morality (道德). Secondly, foreigners are still being unfairly treated. So when we talk about America, we should see both its good and bad sides.
    小题1:The author’s roommate offered to help him because________.
    A．he felt sorry for the author
    B．he thought it was a chance to make some money
    C．he knew the doctor was a very good one
    D．he wanted the author to have a good lawyer
    小题2: A good doctor is essential for the author to __________.
    A．be properly treated
    B．talk with the person responsible for the accident
    C．recover before he leaves America
    D．eventually get the responsible party to pay for his injury
    小题3:The word“charge”in the third paragraph means_________ .
    A．be responsibleB．accuseC．ask as a priceD．claim
    小题4:Both the doctor and the lawyer in this passage are very__________.
    A．friendlyB．selfish C．professional D．busy
    小题5:What conclusion can you draw from the story?
    A．Going to court is something very common in America.
    B．One must be very careful while driving a car.
    C．There are more bad sides in America than good sides.
    D．Money is more important than other things in the US.

    Swedish master medical photographer Lennart Nilsson is a pioneer in medical photography．In association with researchers and with the help of advanced, specially designed equipment, he has documented the inside of man down to the level of a cell with his camera.
    Born in Strängnäs, a satellite city of Stockholm, in 1922, Nilsson got his first camera from his father when he was 11 years old．From the early stage, he has been interested in looking at ants and taking photos of them.Throughout the years, he has devoted special attention to capturing the creation of a human being, from conception to birth.
    In 2006 when his photo book Life was published in both Swedish and English, he was invited to give a lecture at the Stockholm bookstore．He vividly described to the public how he took the photos so that the development process of the embryo can be understood better．Finally when he was signing his name in the book, I asked him what made him so passionate about working on this, he stopped writing and thought for a second, “I think it is the respect for life,” Nilsson said.
    Nilsson began his career as a photographic journalist in the middle of the 1940s and published a number of photo-essays in Swedish and foreign magazines, including "Polar Bear Hunting in Spitzbergen" (1947) and Midwife.
    “When I went to the professor to take the embryo photo, I was looking around and then I saw something which was unbelievable, it was a tiny human embryo lies in a very special place, a 10-20 millimeter embryo with hands, arms and eyes, and I got a shock,” Nilsson said.
    Nilsson began experimenting with new photographic techniques in the mid-1950s to report on the world of ants and life in the sea．His revealing macro-studies were published in his book on ants, Myror (1959), and in the Life in the Sea (1959), and in Close to Nature (1984)．In the 1960s special designed, very slim endoscopes (内窥镜))made it possible for him to photograph the blood vessels and the cavities (空洞) of the body with the necessary depth of field and, in 1970, he used a scanning electron microscope for the first time, he was also considered the pioneer for three dimension digital pictures of the body organs.
    After his photographs of human embryo were published, he was encouraged to continue photographing the origins of human being.
    Nilsson is very modest and sincere．At age of nearly 88, he is still cooperating with colleagues in Karolinska Institute where the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine is selected every year.
    “He can forget all the other things when he is working and he is still working diligently,” Mrs Nilsson told People’s Daily Online.
    小题1:Why does Nilsson want to document the creation of a human being?
    A．Because he is a pioneer in medical photography.
    B．Because he has been interested in taking photos.
    C．Because he thinks it a way to show respect for life.
    D．Because he wished to win a Nobel Prize.
    小题2:What can we learn from the passage?
    A．Nilsson was the only expert in medical photography.
    B．Nilsson’s camera is specially designed.
    C．Nilsson’s photo book Life is better received than his other books.
    D．Nilsson has always been working alone．
    小题3:How many books written by Nilsson are mentioned in this passage?
    A．3．B．4.C．5.D．6.
    小题4:Which of the following word can Not be used to describe Nilsson?
    A．Passionate.B．Devoted.C．Forgetful.D．Dillgent.
    小题5:What can be the title for the passage?
    A．Nilsson, a pioneer medical photographer.
    B．Nilsson, a pioneer medical publisher
    C．Nilsson, a person of rich experience
    D．Nilsson, a talented photographer

    III.阅读理解(20×2)
    When Sir Winston Churchill , the great British prime minister, reached his eightieth birthday in November 1954, he was presented with his portrait by a well-known modern artist, Granham Sutherland. The painting had been ordered and paid by the members of Parliament(国会)， who wanted to honor the Grand Man of World war II.
    Sir Winston and Lady Churchill were deeply moved by this mark of respect and affection. Neither of them, of course, allowed the donors（捐赠者） to see how much they both disliked the portrait. “It makes me look stupid—which I am not !” Churchill protested in private. Publicly, he only said that it was “a fine example of modern art”. His friends smiled: it was well-known that Sir Winston didn’t care for modern art.
    Churchill was so unhappy about the portrait that finally his wife had it destroyed. Churchill died at ninety in January 1965. lady Churchill followed him in 1977. Shortly after her death, the public learned what had happened to Sutherland’s painting, and a heated argument broke out. The painter was understandably sad. The artistic community, shocked and angry, claimed that the destruction of the picture had been a crime. Historians said that they regretted the disappearance of a historical document. All agreed that Churchills didn’t have the right to do what they had done.
    Well—did they ? A good part of the public felt that the owner of a portrait had the right to get rid of it if it made him so unhappy. The question, however, has been raised many times before: who has the right to a work of art—the sitter, the owner, the donor or the artist who created it?  And when the painting is the portrait of a historical figure, should the right of posterity (后代) be considered, as the historians claimed?
    1. To have Churchill’s portrait painted was the idea of ______.
    A.a well-known modern artist       B.Parliament
    C.a friend of Churchill             D.the public
    2. Which of the following is true ?
    A. Churchill liked the portrait but his wife not
    B. Churchill didn’t like the portrait because he didn’t like the painter
    C. Churchill liked the portrait because it was a fine modern art.
    D . Churchill didn’t like the portrait and nor did his wife
    3. When Churchill said it was “a fine example of modern art”, he was ______.
    A. dishonest           B. joking        C. praising the portrait          D. not been straight
    4.When was the destruction of the portrait known to the public?
    A . As soon as it happened             B.After Churchill died in 1965
    C. Soon after Lady Churchill’s death     D. Not until recently
    5. How did people reacted to the news?
    A. People of the artistic community were all very sad.
    B. The historians felt more strongly against it than the artistic community.
    C.All people agreed that Chutchills had no right to destroy the picture.
    D. while some were upset, quite a few people believed the Churchills had the right to destroy it.

      Kristy,28,a cook in La Gross, often wondered what she’d do in a life threatening situation. On August 29, she got her answer. While she was driving on a road,a big truck hit its head on a pickup car.The pickup burst into flames.Kristy rushed out and ran to the pickup.Two farmers,Dean Bernhard,51, and his brother,Donald,44,were inside.
    When she got close,Kristy could see the unconscious driver.The other man was under the passenger seat. “The smells were sicking.I was afraid the truck would blow up and kill us all,” said kristy.
    The driver of the big truck was struggling to open the passenger door,so Kristy rushed to the driver’s side.Finally they opened the door.She reached in,seized the driver and, to her horror,felt her hands sink into his chest.She quickly dragged the man to safety on the roadside,then hurried back.As Kristy started down the ditch(水沟) with the passenger,the pickup exploded..She jumped on top of him and they both rolled to safety.
