Do you know this girl?
I was in the park with my elder sister, Cathy, on Friday. My sister left her jacket on a chair while we talked to some friends. When we went back to the chair, a girl in a red T-shirt was sitting there. She had some money in her hand. When she saw us, she got up and walked away.
I asked my sister, "Did you have any money in your jacket?"
She said, "Yes, Anna, I did."
I said, "Look in your jacket quickly."
Cathy looked in her jacket, but her money was not there.
"That girl stole it!" I said, and we both ran after her. We caught her quickly.
My sister was very angry and she said, "Give me the money." The girl gave the money to Cathy and ran away. We both ran after her, but we lost her.
Then we went home. But before we could tell our parents, my mother said to Cathy, "You left your money at home. It's on the table in the sitting room. You must be more careful with money."
So the girl in the red T-shirt was not a thief! She probably thought we were thieves! We felt terrible.
Please telephone us if you know this girl! We are very sorry for our mistake. We would like to say sorry to her and give the money back to her.
Our number is 512667. My name is Anna.

Walking over to the offender, I asked for the   46 . Frozen, she refused to give it to me. I waited, all attention in the classroom on the quiet   47  between teacher and student. When she finally   48  it over she whispered, “Okay, but I didn’t draw it.”

As I   57  the notes later, many of them said something like, “I’ve got nothing against you.” or “I’m sorry you were hurt.” Some kids said, “We’re afraid of you.” But two notes, from the girls who I   58  were behind the picture, had a list of issues. I was too   59 , too strict …
Reading those notes, I realized that over the course of this year, instead of   60  my student, I had begun commanding them to   61 . Where I thought I was driving them to success I was   62  driving them away.
I had some apology to do. But the next day I the classroom, one boy and one girl each handed me a card. The one   63  by all the boys expressed sincere regret for the ugly joke. The one from the girls asked for   64 .

On November18, 1995, Itzhak Perlman, the world famous violinist, came on stage to give a concert at Lincoln Centre in New York City. If you have ever been to a Perlman concert, you know that getting on stage is not easy for him. He got polio（小兒麻痹癥）as a child, and has to walk with the aid of two crutches（拐杖）now.
That night Perlman walked slowly to his chair. Then he sat down and began to play. But, suddenly, one of the strings on his violin broke. You could hear it break---it broke with a loud noise.
People thought to themselves, “He would have to get up to either find another violin or find another string for this one.”
But he didn’t. Instead, he waited a moment, closed his eyes and then signaled the conductor to begin again. The orchestra（管弦樂隊(duì)）began, and he played from where he had stopped. He played with such passion and such power.
Of course, everyone knows that it is impossible to play a symphonic work with just three strings. But that night Itzhak Perlman refused to know that. You could see him changing and recomposing（重新作曲）the piece in his head.
When he finished, there was a silence in the room. Then people rose and cheered. We were all on our feet, doing everything we could to show how much we appreciated what he had done.
He smiled and then he said in a quiet tone, “You know, sometimes it is the artist’s task to find out how much music you can make with what you have left.”
His words have stayed in my mind ever since I heard them. That is also the way of life. Perhaps our task in this quickly changing world in which we live is to make music, at first with all that we have, and then, when that is no longer possible, to make music with what we have left.
小題1:Holding a concert is challenging for Perlman because ______.
A．he is just a world famous violinist
B．he has never performed on stage before
C．he is physically disabled as a result of a disease
D．he has difficulty in moving his body
小題2:When Perlman had just begun playing, ______.
A．there was something wrong with the violin
B．he fell ill suddenly
C．a(chǎn)n accident happened and caused a disturbance
D．a(chǎn) very loud noise arose from the audience
小題3: If one of the strings suddenly broke, what would an ordinary player do?
A．He would cancel the concert.B．He would play another violin.
C．Another performer would play instead.D．The concert would be put off.
小題4:The audience rose and cheered ______.
A．to show they are satisfied with Perlman’s performance
B．to thank the orchestra for their passionate performance
C．to ask Perlman for another performance
D．to express their appreciation of Perlman’s creative mind
小題5: The lesson we draw from the story is that ______.
A．we should make the best of what we have
B．what we have is more important than what is lost
C．we should not care about what is lost
D．the way of life is to always live with music

On March 5, 2009, Michael Jackson stood in front of crowds of fans．Before screaming fans, he pronounced with pumping arms: "This is it!"
A few months later, Jackson was dead．With the late pop star’s return to radio, television and the cultural events, Forbes judges that Jackson has made $90 million since his death June 25．This figure is based on his royalties（版稅） from album sales, radio play, rights to his name and royalties from his stock in the Sony/ATV music catalog （編目權(quán)）．
Jackson's music was his most easily-seen source in the last months．“Nothing increases the value of an artist than death ．．．a(chǎn)n untimely death,” says Barry Massarsky, a music industry economist．
The music's immediate value was clear．Since June, Jackson has sold more than 5．9 million albums in the U．S．a(chǎn)nd another 4．5 million overseas．In the first weeks after his death, there were 5．6 million single downloads across North America, Europe and Australia．Jackson recently has three of the top 20 best-selling albums of the year in the US, according to Nielsen SoundScan．His 2003 hits album Number Ones is the best seller of the year, beating Taylor Swift's Fearless．
More than 500,000 Jackson ringtones and 100,000 music videos were sold．In the week following his death, songs by The Jackson 5, The Jacksons and Michael were played over 100,000 times on the radio, according to Nielsen BDS．
Jackson's estate（遺產(chǎn)）will likely see more money by the end of this year, as it has rights to some of the profits from This Is It as well as the two-disc album of the same name．The estate will share 90% of the film profits with AEG．
Ticket sales from an exhibit opening in London will also contribute a likely profit．Hundreds of Jackson's personal belongings－h(huán)is L．A．Rolls Royce etc－will remain on show for three months at the O2 Arena for fans willing to shell out $25 for a view．
The pop singer bought ATV Publishing, for $47．5 million in 1985．Ten years later, he sold the catalog to Sony for $95 million and took a 50% stock in Sony/ATV, which is now worth about $1．7 to $2 billion．So he still owned half the Sony/ATV catalog at his death．
Jackson's future earning potential is based on his stock in valuable music as well as the value of his image（肖像）．As many musicians, actors and artists before him, Jackson's fame could have a long tail on the market with allowable products, advertising and entertainment events．
小題1:What do Barry Massarsky’s words in Paragraph 3 imply?
A．Jackson died at the time as expected．
B．Only at death can an artist become famous．
C．Jackson became more famous at death than when he was alive．
D．Jackson’s unexpected death raised his value as an artist immediately．
小題2:All the following is true EXCEPT that _____．
A．“This is it” is the last concert that Jackson gave
B．Jackson has sold 10．4 million albums since June
C．Jackson’s L．A．Rolls Royce is now for show and will finally be sold
D．Jackson’s stock in music and his image will keep on earning money in the future
小題3:What can be inferred from the passage?
A．Jackson’s album Number Ones beat Taylor Swift’s Fearless in 2003．
B．Taylor Swift’s Fearless is the second best seller of music albums of 2009．
C．AEG takes in more film profits from “This is it” than Jackson’s estate．
D．More Jackson’s music videos were sold than his ringtones right after his death．
小題4:What is the main idea of the passage?
A．Why Michael Jackson’s music is so popular all over the world．
B．How Michael Jackson has earned $90 million in the months since his death．
C．What Michael Jackson's future earning potential is based on．
D．How much Michael Jackson earned in the first few months after his death．

James Cleveland Owens was the son of a farmer and the grandson of black slaves. His family moved to Cleveland when he was 9.There, a school teacher asked the youth his name.
"J.C., "he replied.
She thought he had said "Jesse", and he had a new name.
Owens ran his first race at age 13.After high school, he went to Ohio State University. He had to work part time so as to pay for his education. As a second?  year student in the Big Ten games in 1935, he set even more records than he would in the Olympic Games a year later.
A week before the Big Ten meet, Owens accidentally fell down a flight of stairs. His back hurt so much that he could not exercise all week, and he had to be helped in and out of the car that drove him to the meet.

Having returned from Berlin,  he received no telephone calls from the president of his own country,  either. In fact, he was not honored by the United States until 1976, four years before his death.
Owens? Olympic victories  made little difference to him. He earned his living by looking after a school playground, and accepted money to race against cars, trucks,  motorcycles and dogs.

Over many years, there has been an increase in the population of towns in many countries, as millions of people have moved from the villages in search of better jobs and facilities (設(shè)施), in the hope of getting a higher standard of living. This development has led to huge expansions of towns both upwards into the sky and outwards into the surrounding countryside. In spite of all the efforts of governments and private businesses, many areas still suffer from a serious shortage of housing.
Now, a new idea has been put forward which will utilize (利用 vt.) areas which have no other obvious commercial potential (商業(yè)潛能). These are the ponds, small lakes, disused docks (碼頭), and other areas of water, many of which can be found near, or even in the suburbs (郊區(qū)) of big towns.
A new style of construction has been designed which will provide a house for less than half the cost of the normal building. The main saving is, of course, the land, because the new houses will float on water. There will be no need for foundations; instead the house will be built on a frame (框架) made of steel which is expected to cost about ￡5,000. Above this the builders will make a house with two, three, or four bedrooms and all the usual modern conveniences, as well as a roof garden. Each house will be joined to the main services supplying water, gas, and electricity and they will have a vacuum sewage disposal (真空污水處理) system. All the service links will have enough flexibility (靈活性) to allow for small differences in the water level caused by wet and dry periods of weather.
The first houses to be built are expected to cost between ￡20,000 and ￡30,000 according to size and it is already clear that there is a very good potential market for the new system. As the cost is comparatively low, young people and common citizens would like to buy.
小題1:So many people have moved into towns because _______．
A．they enjoy the facilities
B．they expect to live a better life
C．they expect to get better jobs
D．there is a shortage of jobs in villages
小題2:What is the main advantage of the new idea?
A．It will help relieve（緩解）the housing shortage.
B．It will utilize disused areas of water.
C．It will provide jobs.
D．It will help the suburbs.
小題3:The new houses will be built on­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­_______．
A．waterside areasB．a(chǎn) stone foundation
C．lakes and rivers D．a(chǎn) steel frame
小題4:The price of the new houses will _______．
A．encourage private and government builders
B．a(chǎn)ttract ordinary people in the towns to buy
C．vary in different areas according to the policy
D．help the housing market in the countryside

“Mum, what does it mean when someone tells you that they have a skeleton（骨骼）in the closet（衣櫥）?” Jessica asked. “A skeleton in the closet?” her mother paused thoughtfully. “Well, it’s something that you would rather not have anyone else know about. For example, if in the past, someone in Dad’s family had been arrested for stealing a horse, it would be ‘a(chǎn) skeleton in his family’s closet. He really wouldn’t want any neighbor to know about it.”
“Why pick on my family?” Jessica’s father said with anger. “Your family history isn’t so good, you know. Wasn’t your great-great-grandfather a prisoner who was transported to Australia for his crimes?” “Yes, but people these days say that you are not a real Australian unless your ancestors arrived as prisoners.” “Gosh, sorry I asked. I think I understand now,” Jessica cut in before things grew worse.
After dinner, the house was very quiet. Jessica’s parents were still quite angry with each other. Her mother was ironing clothes and every now and then she glared at her husband, who hid behind his newspaper pretending to read. When she finished, she gathered the freshly pressed clothes in her arms and walked to Jessica’s closet. Just as she opened the door and reached in to hang a skirt, a bony arm stuck out from the dark depths and a bundle of white bones fell to the floor. Jessica’s mother sank in a faint（暈倒）, waking only when Jessica put a cold, wet cloth on her forehead. She looked up to see the worried faces of her husband and daughter.
“What happened? Where am I?” she asked. “You just destroyed the school’s skeleton, Mum,” explained Jessica. “I brought it home to help me with my health project. I meant to tell you, but it seemed that as soon as I mentioned skeletons and closets, it caused a problem between you and Dad.” Jessica looked in amazement as her parents began to laugh madly. “They’re both crazy,” she thought.
小題1:
According to Jessica’s mother, “a skeleton in the closet” means ______.
A． a family honorB． a family secret
C． a family storyD． a family treasure
小題2:
What can we learn about some Australians’ ancestors from Paragraph 2?
A． They were brought to Australia as prisoners.
B． They were the earliest people living in Australia.
C． They were involved in some crimes in Australia.
D． They were not regarded as criminals in their days.
小題3:
Why did Jessica bring a skeleton home?
A． She was curious about it.B． She planned to keep it for fun.
C． She needed it for her school task.D． She intended to scare her parents.
小題4:
.   Jessica’s parents laughed madly at the end of the story probably because ______.
A． they were crazy
B． they were over excited
C． they realized their misunderstanding
D． they both thought they had won the quarrel
