Our family went to the Yellow Stone National Park last summer vacation. Our son, Tom, wanted to see bears there. And what an experience it was!

After we got there, we put up our tent and began to travel around. As we returned, we heard our daughter Susie cry out. And then we saw a bear go into our camp.

Tom wanted his father to chase(驅(qū)趕) him away. His father said, “No, it’s dangerous to chase a bear. And don’t let him chase you.” Susie said, “What should we do? Maybe we should climb a tree.” Tom said, “No, we have to get him out of there. He might go to sleep in our tent.” “Maybe we could make him leave if we put some honey outside for him to eat.” Susie suggested. Then I said, “How are you going to get the honey? It’s in the tent.”

We watched the bear go into the tent and heard him turn everything upside down. “It’ll be foolish of us to try to chase him away,” said my husband. “Leave him alone and wait for him to come out.” We waited, but the bear stayed inside. We had to sleep in the car that night.

I found out one time that helping 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 said something to me in a low voice, 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 could lend her a pen. She showed me that hers was out of ink(墨水) and would not write. I took a pen out of my pencil box and put it on her desk.

Later, after the test papers had been handed in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other students could leave. 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 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 the teacher 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. So I went to the teacher and 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 helping the girl by letting her use my pen, I am sure she continued to believe that I had cheated on the test.

1.The story happened when __________.

A. the writer was eight years old B. the writer was in Grade 8

C. the writer was visiting a girl D. the writer sang in a low voice

2.The girl wanted to borrow a pen because __________.

3.The teacher asked the writer __________.

A. to put his pen on the desk B. to help the girl after the test

C. to leave the room at once D. to stay behind after the test

4.Which of the following is the thing that the teacher didn’t talk about?

A. You should be helpful when you grow up. B. It’s important to be independent.

C. You should be responsible for what you do. D. You shouldn’t do dishonest things.

5.Which of the following is true?

A. The writer and the girl cheated on the final test.

B. The writer helped the girl by lending his pen to her.

C. The girl tried to explain the truth to the teacher.

D. The teacher finally realized she had made a mistake.

C

What is time? Is it a thing to be saved or spent or wasted, like money? Or is it something we have no control over, like the weather? Is it the same all over the world? That’s an easy question, you say. Wherever you go, a minute is 60 seconds, an hour is 60 minutes, a day is 24 hours, and so forth. Well, maybe. But in America, time is more than that. Americans see time as a valuable resource(資源). Maybe that’s why they like the expression, “Time is money.”

Because Americans believe time is a limited resource, they try to keep and manage it. People in the US often attend meetings or read books on time management. It seems that they all want to organize their time better. People try their best to press more life out of their time.

To Americans, being on time is a way of showing respect(尊重) for other people’s time. Being more than 10 minutes late usually calls for an apology(道歉) and an explanation. People who are running late often call ahead to let others know that they can’t be on time. Of course, the less formal(正式的) the situation is, the less important it is to be exactly on time. At informal get-togethers, for example, people often arrive as much as 30 minutes late. But they usually don’t try that at work.

American lifestyles show how much people respect the time of others. When people plan an event, they often set the time days or weeks before it. Once the time is fixed, it is almost impossible to change it. If people want to come to your house for a friendly visit, they will usually call first to make sure it is convenient. Only very close friends will just “drop by” unannounced. Also, people seldom call others late at night for fear they might be in bed. The time may be different, but most people think twice about calling after 10:00 pm.

Even Americans would agree that no one can master time. Time, like money, slips all too easily through our finger. And time, like the weather, is very hard to predict. However, time is one of life’s most valuable gifts.

1.From Paragraph 1, we can learn that ___________.

A. Americans waste lots of money and time

B. people can only control 60 minutes a day

C. Americans regard time as something valuable

D. money is more important than time in America

2.In Paragraph 3 and Paragraph 4, the writer mainly tells us that ___________.

A. Americans respect others’ time in daily life B. Americans never call after ten o’clock

C. Americans visit friends without calling first D. Americans arrive days before an event

3.The underlined phrase “think twice” probably means “___________”.

A. pay attention B. learn wisely C. feel relaxed D. consider carefully

4.According to this passage, ___________.

A. most American people treasure their time

B. people can master and predict time easily

C. Americans like time better than anything else

D. people are supposed to be on time in all situations

5.This passage mainly talks about ___________.

A. some of the American lifestyles B. how Americans treat time

C. all kinds of ways to spend time D. different opinions about time
