The beggar’s well-deserved dinner
Many years ago, there lived two woodcutters, Rahim and Rahman in a village. They went out every    36   to cut fire wood. After cutting wood. They would sit down and   37   their lunch from their boxes. Next they would   38   the firewood till the end of the day in the marketplace before going    39  .
One day, they were eating their lunch when Rahim noticed a beggar. The beggar   40   eyed the lunch and said, “I wonder if you can spare a little food for me.” Rahim, who felt   41  for him, was about to give him some of it, but was   42   back by Rahman. “ We   43   hard throughout the morning and   44   enough food for ourselves to see us through the   45   .  So you see we cannot give you any food. But if you   46  , I can lend you my axe and we both will teach you how to cut firewood and sell it. And you’ll have   47   to eat and buy yourself a(n)   48   axe to cut more fire wood. This way, you can   49   a livelihood with dignity (尊严).”
The beggar joined them.   50  , Rahman showed him how to cut firewood. Thereafter they took him to the   51   and told him how to sell it.
At the end of the day, the beggar proudly took the   52   to Rahman to show them his earnings. Rahman took him to buy a new axe. Then the beggar entered an inn (客栈).
After he had gone, Rahman told Rahim, “By teaching him how to   53   his own trade, we have taught him a skill, which will last him a   54  . Now he will hever go hungry again.” As a very famous saying goes, “Don’t give them fish   55   teach them how to catch the fish.”

Afraid that her son would be too tired, Ms. Wendy would sometimes tell the boy to skip school, but each time, Fabian would insist on going to school.
“I don’t like it because when I return to school, I don’t know what’s going on,” the 12-year-old boy explained. He suffers for SMA-a neuromuscular(神经肌肉的)disease that leads to weakness in muscles-and gets around in a wheelchair.
Fabian’s determination to excel in his studies was evident when he was disappointed that he got a total score of 236 yesterday in his Primary School Leaving Examination. He was hoping for a score of at least 240, but his mother was full of pride. “I am happy with his results. He’s very motivated,” said Ms. Wendy.
When Fabian was two months old, he was diagnosed with SMA. Ms. Wendy, who used to go to other homes to teach piano lessons, started teaching lessons at home so she could take care of her son. Fabian proved to be a fighter. Ms. Wendy said, “ He would study every day on his own even though he was weak and his spine(脊柱)was already starting to curve quite badly.”
Fabian is also active in the Singapore Disability Sports Council, where he plays boccia(滚球), a ball sport for those who require a wheelchair due to physical disability.
At just 133cm tall and weighing 14kg, he knows that he will have to rely on others all his life. “I’m afraid that when my parents grow older, they will not be able to carry me and that there will be nobody to carry me,” said Fabian. “But for now, I feel lucky that I get to go out and do a lot of things that I thought I couldn’t.”
His dreams aren’t lofty(崇高的)either-all he want to be able to do is work and provide for his parents. “I just want to study hard so that I can be a businessman, like my dad.” He is planning to apply to study at Victoria School.
小题1:The underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refers to ______.
A. going to school.               B. being absent from school
C. studying hard.                   D. suffering from SMA.
小题2:We can know from the text that Fabian ______.
A.got the disease at the age of 12.
B.was proud of his exam results.
C.has no interest in any sports.
D.wants to be a businessman like his father.
小题3:What do we know about Ms. Wendy?
A.She insists that her son go to school.
B.She used to be a piano teacher in a school.
C.She is satisfied with her son’s performance at school.
D.She fears that her son will be helpless when she is older.
小题4:Which words can best describe Fabian?
A.Sensitive and weak.B.Active and optimistic.
C.Clever and strong.D.Stressed and concerned.
小题5:What is the best title for the text?
A. He Is Disabled but He Is a Fighter.
B. A Great Mother and Her Special Son.
C. How to Fight Against SMA.
D. A disabled boy’s dream.

Australia has passed regulations that will enable more international students to further their education in the country.
The new measures were released by the Australian Department of Tertiary Education, Skills, Jobs and Workplace Relations in September and will take effect in mid-2012.
As a result, the student visa application process for overseas students has been simplified, and the deposit (押金) required to study in Australia has been reduced. Language requirements for overseas students have also been eased.
Also, overseas students receiving a higher education in Australia will be granted a working visa lasting from two to four years after graduation, as long as they meet the basic IELTS requirement.
"This change will definitely make Australia a more attractive destination for Chinese students planning to study overseas," says Wang Lan , a consultant from Education International Cooperation Group (EIC), a Beijing-based company that provides services to students wishing to study overseas.
However, in the past few years, many of Wang's student clients (客户) could not start studies in Australia because they did not meet the language requirements, visa processing took a long time and deposit regulations were tough. The change in policy is good news for the parents of students wishing to study in Australia, Wang says.
A 22-year-old female student surnamed Li, in Beijing, who is planning to do her  postgraduate studies in Australia, learned about the policy change several weeks ago.
"According to the previous deposit requirement for my student visa, my family was required to put down 550,000 Yuan ($86,850). Now we only need to prepare 410,000 Yuan. This is a relief for my parents," Li says.
She also says that the two to four years working visa makes her feel much clearer about her study plans.
"I believe several years of working experience abroad will strengthen my competitiveness when I return to China," she says.
Gaining a competitive advantage is the major reason for Chinese students to study abroad, according to the report by EIC.
小题1:What's the main idea of the passage? 
A.Language requirement for overseas students have been eased in Australia.
B.Australia is a most attractive place for students in China.
C.Australia widens window of opportunity for international students.
D.More students will work in Australia after their graduation.
小题2:Which of the following is NOT the content of the new regulations? 
A.The student visa application process for overseas students has been simplified.
B.The deposit required to study in Australia has been reduced.
C.Language requirements for overseas students have been more difficult.
D.After graduation, some overseas students can get a working visa in Australia.
小题3:After the new regulations are passed, _______ . 
A.more students will come to Australia to work
B.more Chinese students will choose to live in Australia.
C.the opportunities to work in Australia decrease for overseas students
D.more Chinese students will choose to further their education in Australia
小题4:How much can Li's parents save according to the new regulations? 
A.550,000 yuanB.140,000 yuan
C.410,000 yuanD.86,850 yuan
小题5:Why do many students want to work in Australia after their graduation? 
A.The working experience abroad will strengthen their competitiveness.
B.They can earn more money in Australia.
C.Their working experience can make them stay in Australia forever.
D.They have to do so according to the new regulations.

Half a century after the March of Dimes (a US charity organization that collects money for children) put the 20th century’s most feared childhood disease on the road to eradication (根除), Bill Gates declared polio (小儿麻痹症) his important job and challenged world leaders to finish the job.
India, Nigeria, Pakistan and Afghanistan now have active transmission (传播) of the disease. Gates says the biggest problem with the success of the Global Polio Eradication program in those countries and elsewhere is lack of money.
The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation plans to increase its $200 million annual contribution (每年的捐款) by $102 million this year, Gates says. Gates recently met privately with Pakistan’s President in Washington, D.C., to try to persuade him to provide full support for Pakistan’s eradication plan.
Children in the USA also are at risk, experts say. Parents who don’t vaccinate (给某人接种疫苗) their children because they are fearful of vaccine side-effects create a large number of children who are likely to be harmed by the virus.
“If you increase the number of unvaccinated children, you increase the chance that this virus will find new subjects,” says David Oshinsky, Pulitzer Prized-winning author of Polio: An American Story.
“We’ve got to get this vaccine into the mouths of children,” says Bruce Aylward, head of the World Health Organization’s eradication program.
In 1988, when the World Health Organization launched the Global Polio Eradication program, the disease killed 350,000 children a year worldwide. By last year, the total dropped to fewer than 1,500 worldwide, Aylward says.
If Gates provides the final push for polio eradication, he may be remembered as much for helping prevent polio as for founding Microsoft, Oshinsky says.
“As long as there’s polio anywhere, people everywhere are at risk,” Aylawrd says. “We’re still not out of the woods.”
小题1:According to the text, the success of the Global Polio Eradication program mainly depends on          .
A.the World Health Organization’s policy
B.the development of a new vaccine
C.the local governments’ support
D.the collection of funds.
小题2:What do we know about polio according to the text?
A.People in Nigeria don’t take it seriously.
B.It’s now the most serious childhood disease.
C.Great progress has been made in preventing it.
D.There are few organizations helping to prevent it.
小题3:According to Oshinsky,           .
A.Gates should devote more time to Microsoft
B.polio eradication is a very important cause
C.vaccine side-effects should not be ignored
D.polio has been brought under control
小题4:According to the passage, which of the following about Bill Gates is TRUE?
A.He is the founder of the Global polio Eradication program.
B.He persuades some of the world leaders to support the eradication plan.
C.His foundation contributes $302, 000 to eradicate polio every year.
D.He works harder on preventing polio than founding Microsoft.
小题5:The underlined part “We’re still not out of the woods” means “       ”.
A.We get lost in the woodsB.We’re not free from trouble
C.we have no idea where to goD.We’re unable to eradicate polio
