The first telephone cards, produced in 1976, were Italian. Five years later the first British card appeared, and now you can buy cards in more than a hundred countries. People usually start collecting cards because they are small and light and you do not need much space for them.

In Paris, for example, there is a market where you can only buy telephone cards, and some cards cost up to ￡4,000.The first Japanese card has a value of about ￡28,000. Most people only see cards with prices like these in their collectors’ magazine.

When I was 18 years old, one morning, my father told me to drive him into a town, about 40 miles away. I had just learned to 36，so I agreed with pleasure.

I have failed  43 I’ve brought up a son who can not even tell the truth to his own father. I’m going to walk home now and think seriously about  44 I have done wrong all these years.” 
Dad began  45 along the road. I begged(乞求)all the way, telling him how I drove behind him for 40 miles, at a speed of 5 miles an hour. It was the most unforgettable lesson. I have never told a lie to him ever since.

The cost of medical care in the United States is very high. The time and money that doctors spend on their medical education is probably one reason for this problem.
A visit to a doctor’s office costs from 15 to 50 dollars. It’s so expensive. Many people in the United States think that doctors are overpaid. However, most doctors disagree. They say that they were asked to study medicine for a long time. Tuition for many years of medical education costs a lot of money. Doctors say that it is necessary for most medical students to borrow money from the bank to pay their tuition. Because their money must be repaid to the bank, young doctors need to receive a lot of money for their work. So they charge(收費(fèi))people high prices for medical care.
Therefore the cost of medical care in America is high. Because high tuition is one cause of high costs, one way to lower costs would be to have medical school that are free or have low tuition.
小題1:The underlined word "tuition" in the passage means “______”
A．eating at schoolB．studying the courses
C．money used for educationD．living at school
小題2:The main idea of the passage is that______.
A．a(chǎn) visit to a doctor’s office may cost much in the USA
B．the cost of medical care is the only reason for the high costs in the USA
C．medical care in the USA costs a lot of money because doctors want to be rich
D．the high cost of tuition in medical schools is one reason for the high cost of medical care in the USA
小題3: The cost of medical care in the USA is very high. What does the writer think about it?
A．He agrees that doctors are overpaid.
B．He thinks it is a big problem and suggests (建議) solving (解決) it.
C．He doesn’t think the medical students should borrow money from banks.
D．He doesn’t think it necessary for the medical students to study for a long time.

There are about 80,000,000 mines*  under the ground in more . than 60 countries. It is difficult and dangerous to clear these rnines, About 50  people including many children were’ killed ‘or htirt each iay.  In 2003,  APOPO,  a Dutch research com pan y that uains the an imals, came up with the-idea of s\ng rats to search for the mines.
The animal trainers ‘found that a kind of rats from Africa were clever and had.a sharp*  sense of smell.  The rats were about 75 cm long and.weighed about l.35 kg, light enough to run across a minefield without setting off the mines.
In January 2004, the APOPO started this project. First, the trainers let the 4-week-old baby rats get familiar with humans. A few weeks later, the rats were no Ionger afraid of people and ‘the things around them. Then they were trained to connect a click* sound with food. After the rats had leamed that, the trainers then taught them to tell the difference between the smell of mines and other smells. When the rats could do it, the click was sounded and they were given a bit of banana.  The method was called clicker training. “The training isn’t easy, said trainer Abdullah Mchomvu.  “You have to be patient. Sometimes I get angry, but then again, I tell myself these are animals.”
After nine months’training, the rats were taken to a minefield. They’ran across the minefield, stopped, sat and scratched the ground to tell the deminers*  that they smelt out’a mine.  Then the mine was cleared. It had  taken two ‘deminers  a day to clear a 200㎡ . minefield, but with the help of two rats ‘they could finish it in two hours.
The rats and the deminers saved thousands of lives, “The rats did this job much better than we expected. So far they have helped to make almost 2,000,000㎡ of land safe. They are heroes,” said Bart Weeqens, the head of the APOPO.
小題1: The APOPO trained the rats to search for     .
A．childrenB．a(chǎn)nimalsC．minesD．bananas
小題2: While training the rats, the trainers have to be

What does it feel like to break a bone (骨頭)? It’s different for everyone, but the pain is often sharp (嚴(yán)重). If the break is small, however, the person may not feel much pain at all. If you think that you or someone else has broken a bone, the most important things to do are to stay calm, make the hurt person comfortable, and call the doctor. Do not move the injured body part since movement could make it worse.
To treat the break, the doctor will need to take an X-ray. This gives the doctor the information he or she needs to set (接上) the bone: to put it back to its normal place. If the bone is large or it is broken in more than one place, the doctor may need to use metal pins (鋼釘) to set it. After the bone has been set, the next step is usually putting on a cast, the special, hard thing that will keep the bone in place for a month or two.
Your bones are excellent at healing themselves. Broken bones will produce many new cells (細(xì)胞) and tiny blood vessels (血脈). These cover both ends of the broken part, and close up the break until the bone is as whole and strong as before.
小題1: Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A．How to Know if a Bone is Broken
B．How Broken Bones Heal Themselves
C．Common Causes (原因) of Broken Bones
D．What You Should Know about Broken Bones
小題2: When someone breaks his bone, the following should be done except ______.
A．a(chǎn)sking the doctor for helpB．comforting the hurt person
C．moving the injured partD．staying calm

a. take an x-ray  b. use metal pins to set it  c. put it back to its normal place  d. put on cast
A．a(chǎn)→b→c→dB．a(chǎn)→c→b→dC．a(chǎn)→d→c→bD．d→a→b→c
小題4:The underlined word “heal” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to “______”.

Teeth are important. Strong, healthy teeth help you chew foods that help you grow. They help you speak clearly. And, they help you look your best. Here are some advice for you to take care of your teeth.
● Brush your teeth the right way.
Brush your teeth at least twice a day after breakfast and before bedtime. If you can, brush after lunch or after sweet snacks（快餐）, too.

Spend at least three minutes each time you brush. Play a song you like to help pass the time.
Get a new toothbrush every three months. When you buy your tooth brush, be sure it has soft bristles（鬃毛）.
