Jack Evans quarreled with his neighbour,Ellen Brown. Mrs. Brown had a dog. Jack did not like dogs. He wanted Mrs. Brown to give away or sell her dog,but she refused.
“I'll take you to court if you don't,” he said.
Mrs. Brown laughed at him. She was not worried.
Jack thought,“I must talk to a lawyer, but lawyers are expensive. I don't want to waste my money. I will waste it if I don't win my case against Mrs. Brown and her dog.”?
Then Jack had an idea. There was a young lawyer in the town. He did not have much work. Not many people knew about him. “I'll visit him,” Jack thought. “He needs work.” He visited the young lawyer in his office. “I need some advice,” he said.

“Good. I want to take my neighbour to court. However, I will pay for your advice only if you think I will win the case in court.”?
The lawyer was not pleased by this suggestion. However, he had very little work. Here was a chance to get some.?
“All right,” he said. “I agree. I will listen to your problem. I will give you honest advice. You will pay me only if I think you can win in court.”?
Jack told him about the problem. The lawyer listened carefully. Sometimes he made notes. When Jack finished, the lawyer sat back in his chair and said, “You will win your case. I have no doubt about it. May I take your case to court?”
Jack stood up and walked towards the door. “No, thank you,” he said. “I will not take it to court.”?
“What about my fee?” the lawyer asked. “You have to keep your promise.”
“I am keeping my promise,” Jack said. “I will not win in court. You see, I did not tell you my case. I told you Mrs. Brown's.”

Science textbooks around the world have become suddenly out of date. Four new chemical elements(元素)have been added to the periodic table. A big decision now lies ahead-elements 113,115,117 and 118 need to be given their official names and symbols.
New elements can be named after a mythical(神話的) concept, a mineral, a place or country, a property(性質(zhì)) or a scientist. The names have to be unique and maintain “historical and chemical consistency”. This means a lot of “-iums”.
“They’re Latinising the name,” explains chemist Andrea Sella. “The most recent tradition is to name them after places or people.” The places chosen tend to be where the element was discovered or first produced.
No one has yet named an element after themselves but many elements are named in honour of important scientists. Albert Einstein was given einsteinium. This can also be a way of righting the wrongs of the past. “Lise Meitner was really the chemist who spotted nuclear fission(核裂變)but she was never really recognised for it because she was Jewish and a woman, ” says Sella. “Giving an element a name that reminds us of her is greatly important. ”
The naming process isn’t quick. The scientists who discovered them will start things off by suggesting a name. But it will be down to the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) to approve it. A special division of the US-based group has to accept the suggestion. Then there is a public review period of five months before the IUPAC gets the final approval. Once it’s ready, the name is announced in the scientific journal Pure and Applied Chemistry.
Naming an element is not just about functionality. Names are always important.
1.What is the function of Paragraph 1?
A. To introduce the topic.
B. To present a finding.
C. To point out a problem.
D. To call for a decision,
2.Why was Lise Meitner mentioned in the naming process in Paragraph 4?
A. To praise her.
B. To build her reputation.
C. To correct the wrongs of the past.
D. To end racial discrimination
3.Who has the final say in the naming process of an element?
A. The scientist who discovered them.
B. The special division of US-based group.
C. The scientific journal Pure and Applied Chemistry,
D. The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry.
4.What i$ the passage mainly about?
A. How elements get their names.
B. Why science textbooks are out of date.
C. How new elements are discovered.
D. How functional naming an element is.

One Canada, Two Languages
Canada is one of the few nations in the world to have two official languages: English and French. There are 10 provinces in the country, but only one of these — Quebec is known as “French Canada”. This is because it was founded by French explorers while British adventurers discovered the rest.
Canada left the British Empire (帝國) in 1867 to become an independent country and English and French have been recognized as the official languages ever since.
Most people speak English as their first language and the two national television networks broadcast in English throughout the country. Apart from in Quebec and a few places on the east coast, French television is very rare.
The same goes for traffic signs and menus, for example, outside of Quebec, there are only a few places where you’ll see traffic signs in French. In restaurants, it’s almost impossible to find French on the menu unless you are in the heartland(中心地帶)of French Canada. However, all products sold in Canada must, by law,have labels(標(biāo)簽)and instructions in both languages.
In Canada’s English-speaking provinces, official bilingualism means that students can choose to complete a special French language course. Under this program, they are taught most of their subjects in French.
If a student begins the course in kindergarten (幼兒園)or Grade One, it is likely that all his lessons will be in French. However, if he starts at junior high school, 25 percent of the teaching will continue to be in English.
1.Which country controlled Canada before its independence?
A. France. B. Britain.
C. America. D. Germany.
2.Where can you watch French television programs?
A. Only in Quebec.
B. In Quebec and a few other places.
C. From the two national television networks.
D. All over Canada.
3.What does the underlined word “bilingualism” in the fifth paragraph mean?
A. 外語教育 B. 母語教育
C. 雙語教育 D. 語言教育
4.What do we know about the education in Canada?
A. In English-speaking provinces only English courses are offered.
B. If you choose a special French language course, most of the subjects will be taught in French.
C. The courses in primary schools are all taught in English.
D. Most of the courses in junior high schools are taught in English.

How strong are you?
That is a hard question to answer, whether you are a man or a woman. But, really , I want to ask how do you define(給...下定義)your strength? How do you know your limits?1. When push comes, we often discover that we are much stronger than we think.
What is Strength?
Strength is not always about pure physical strength.2. It is about the ability to get things done. I know some people who are intellectually strong, but they get very little done in their jobs. And I know others who find work challenging, but they make it by strong drive and hard work. They possess inner strength.
Self-Imposed Limits
What I have observed is that most people set their own limits. They limit their output based on self-framed limits (自我設(shè)定的限制) of their abilities and strengths. Sometimes these boundaries are based on past experiences. Sometimes they are based on self-imagined abilities. 3.So, how do we
break through these limits? How do we get stronger?
4.
If you want to be stronger, you have to push your boundaries. Pushing it is what it takes to increase your limits. In the gym, bodybuilders discovered this long ago. The same principle is true when it comes to inner strength.
Want to test your limits? Push yourself. Test your self-framed limits to see how accurate they are. Make sure your goals are slightly beyond what you think can be achieved.
You Are Stronger Than You Think
Most people underestimate(低估) their strength.5.Test your limits. Push yourself to find your true boundaries and define your strength.
When you discover how much you’ve really got, you may surprise even yourself.
A. Certainly, it is about willpower.
B. Sometimes these limits are based on nothing.
C. How do you know just how much you’ve got?
D. Pushing It
E. As you go through your day, challenge your ability.
F. How can we train our mind and make it stronger?
G. Strength is a combination of physical and mental ability.
