If you want to get the most out of the study of a language, you must also read for pleasure: novels, plays, travel books, and so on. And in reading books of this kind the important thing is to get on with the reading; to try to catch what the writer is going to tell you in the book as a whole. This is impossible if you stop and think over the meaning of every single word which happens to be unfamiliar. You can not enjoy a story if you stop a few times on every page in order to look up words in the dictionary. You may even prevent(妨礙) yourself from understanding the story as a whole by doing this.
When you are reading books of this kind, therefore, you will usually have to depend mainly on the context (上下文) to help you. If you meet an unfamiliar word, do not let it take too much of your attention from the main idea of the story. In all probability you will meet the same word again a few pages later on in a slightly different context, and each time you see it that your understanding of it will become more exact.
【小題1】To read for pleasure means _____________.

A．to take pleasure in reading 
B．to be satisfied in reading book 
C．to read such books as novels, plays, travel books, etc 
D．to go on with reading pleasantly 
【小題2】The phrase “to get on with reading” in the passage has the same meaning as “     ”.
A．to try to grasp the meaning of every sentence in the book 
B．to try to catch the meaning of every word in the book 
C．to try to understand all the writer is going to tell you 
D．to try to understand the main idea of the book

Text messaging, or "texting", which allows people to send and receive messages on mobile phones, becomes very popular today.
The advantages of texting are obvious. Texting helps to save money. If you have a few words to greet your families and friends on their birthdays or on some important festivals, sending messages can be cheaper than phone calling. Texting helps to save time. Even if you want to send a message to 100 people, you can do it in one second. Texting helps you to "talk" to someone when he is too busy to answer the phone. Texting can also help you to "talk" to someone secretly if you don't want others to hear what you are talking on the phone. These advantages are so amazing that many people are crazy about it. They hold mobile phones in hands all day long, send dozens of messages each day, and even text while driving or walking. However, texting has its disadvantage. Junk messages may come into your mobile phone box now and then. When your phone box gets too full, you can't receive any more messages. You may therefore miss some important information.
What's more, if you don't do texting properly, for example, texting while driving or walking, it can be dangerous. It can cause injuries and even death. It was reported that about 6,000 people were killed and half a million were injured for this reason each year. In Fort Lee, a small town in New Jersey, USA, three people died because they walked into traffic while texting in 2013. Two researchers at Stony Brook University, New York found that texters are 60% more probably to have an accident than others. When people are texting, they don't notice other people or things around them. To reduce traffic accidents, all drivers of the UN are now not allowed to text while driving. About 32 countries have passed laws restricting(限制) the use of mobile phones while driving.
Texting is a wonderful way of communication. However, only when we use it properly, can we fully enjoy the fun it brings.

【小題1】 How many advantages of texting are mentioned in the passage?

A．Two. B．Three. 
C．Four. D．Five 
【小題2】 What did the researchers at Stony Brook University find?
A．Texters are easier to have an accident. 
B．Texting is a good way of communication. 
C．6,000 people were killed and injured. 
D．Many people text to greet families and friends. 
【小題3】The underlined word "injuries" probably means_______.
A．事故 B．傷害 
C．爭(zhēng)執(zhí) D．死亡 
【小題4】Which of the following statements is wrong according to the passage
A．Texting while driving or walking is dangerous 
B．To reduce traffic accidents,all drivers of the UN are now not allowed to text while driving. 
C．Texting have more advantages than disadvantages,so we can use it any time. 
D．If you don’t want others to hear what you are talking on the phone,you can text.

During my second year of nursing school, our teacher gave us an exam. I was a hardworking student and I did well in all the subjects. I finished the questions successfully until I read the last one: “What is the first name of the woman who cleans the school?”
Of course this was a joke. I saw the cleaning woman every day. She is short and about 60 years old. She has dark hair. But how would I know her name? I had never talked with her before. In fact, I’d never even thought about talking to her. I stared at my paper and started to feel rather guilty. Finally, I handed in my paper, leaving the last question blank.
Before the class ended, one student asked if the last question would count toward our grade.
“Certainly,” the teacher said. “In your life, you will meet many people. All are important. They deserve(值得) your attention and care, even if all you do is smile and say hello.”
I’ve never forgotten that lesson. Everyone deserves my attention and I should get to know all of the people who work and live around me. That was, perhaps, the most important lesson of my life. I also learned the cleaning woman’s name was Dorothy.

A. know everyone’s name around her 
B. did well in all subjects 
C.didn’t like to have an exam
【小題2】The writer wrote         to the last question.
A. “Dorothy”                     B. “blank”              C. nothing

A. only one student didn’t know the answer          
B. the last question was part of the exam
C. the students needn’t answer the last question
【小題4】The writer thought that         .
A. the exam gave her a lesson

I found out one time that doing a favor (關(guān)心)for someone could get you into a lot of trouble. I was in the eighth grade at the time, and we were having a final test. During the test, the girl sitting next to me whispered something, but I didn’t understand. So I leaned(傾斜)over her way and found out that she was trying to ask me if I had an extra pen. She showed me that hers was out of ink and would not write. I happened to have an extra one, so I took it out of my pocket and put it on her desk.
Later, after the test papers had been turned in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other students were dismissed. As soon as we were alone she began to talk to me about what it meant to grow up; she talked about how important it was to stand on your own two feet and be responsible for your own acts. For a long time, she talked about honesty and emphasized（強(qiáng)調(diào)）the fact that when people do something dishonest, they are really cheating themselves. She made me promise that I would think seriously about all the things she had said, and then she told me I could leave. I walked out of the room wondering why she had chosen to talk to me about all those things.
Later on, I found out that she thought I had cheated on the test. When she saw me lean over to talk to the girl next to me, it looked as if I was copying answers from the girl’s test paper. I tried to explain about the pen, but all she could say was it seemed very strange to her that I hadn’t talked of anything about the pen the day she talked to me right after the test. Even if I tried to explain that I was just doing the girl a favor by letting her use my pen, I am sure she continued to believe that I had cheated on the test.
【小題1】The story took place exactly          .

A．in the teacher’s office B．in an exam room
C．in the school libraryD．in the language lab
【小題2】The thing(s) emphasized in the teacher’s talk was (were)          .
A．honestyB．sense of dutyC．seriousnessD．a(chǎn)ll of the above
【小題3】The boy knew everything          .
A．the moment he was asked to stay behind
B．when the teacher started talking about honesty
C．only some time later
D．when he was walking out of the room
