Most of us know about the Nobel Prize, especially the Nobel Peace Prize, but few of us know anything about the man who set them up. His name was Alfred Nobel. He was a great scientist and inventor himself. Besides, he had a big business. His business may surprise you. He made and sold explosives(炸藥). His companies even made and sold weapons. Isn’t this something that surprises you? The man who made money from weapons should set up the Peace Prize?

Though Alfred Nobel had a lot of money from weapons, he hated war. He hoped that there would be no war in the world. He was one of the richest in Europe. When he died in 1896, he left behind him a lot of money and his famous will. According to his will, most of his money was placed in a fund(基金). He wanted the interest(利潤) from the fund to be used as prizes every year. We know them as the Nobel Prizes. The Nobel Prizes are international. Alfred Nobel wanted the winners to be chosen for their work, not the country they came from.

Several years ago, I worked as a truck driver for a company. On Saturdays I usually spent several hours doing something to keep my truck in good condition.

One Saturday, as I was cleaning my truck, I noticed the boss’s elderly father came out to ask his grandson to take him fishing after work. The grandson told him all about how much he would love to do that, but he just couldn’t because he had other plans already. The old man hobbled (蹣跚) off to the house.

Then I heard the grandson telling his dad, "I’m not taking that old man fishing! It’s worse than taking a kid."

That just broke my heart.

I quit working immediately and went home to fetch my fishing gear (漁具) and a chair. Then I came back and invited the old man to go fishing. He accepted happily.

When we got to the river, I let him sit in the chair at the edge of the water. It wasn’t long before he got a fish. He got one fish after another. His eyes were shining like a child. About half an hour later, he told me he was tired and needed to go home. So I took him and the fish home.

Two weeks later, the old man died. His family told me later that all he talked about during that time was his fishing trip. I am satisfied that I have taken an old man on his last fishing trip, but I am sorry that his family have lost their last chance. Whenever you get the chance, don’t forget about taking Grandpa fishing. Someday, you may be in the same place and you’ll want your family to care about you, too.

1.The writer wrote the passage mainly to ________.

A. tell us something about his work

B. tell us about a fishing experience

C. persuade us to take Grandpa fishing

D. persuade us to care about the elderly

2.The old man’s Grandson refused to fish with him because ______.

A. he had something more important to do that day

B. he didn’t like to fish with an old man

C. he was tired of his job and he wanted to rest

D. he preferred fishing with a child

3.What’s the possible meaning of the underlined word "quit"?

A. start B. stop C. imagine D. try

4.According to the passage, we can infer（推斷） that the author is _______.

A. willing to make his boss happy

B. in need of care from his family

C. prefers fishing to his work

D. kind and warm-hearted

Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family, and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck. I’m not going to say luck, talent, and circumstances(環(huán)境) don’t come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and that’s just the reality of how life is.

However, to succeed in life, one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical. And, in addition to that, in order to get really good at something, one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practicing. To become great at certain things, it’ll require even more time, time that most people won’t put in.

This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you don’t enjoy what you do, it is going to feel like unbearable(不可忍受的) pain and will likely make you quit(放棄) well before you ever become good at it.

When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success, you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost. It’s sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent, but thinking that way does you no good, and there’s a huge chance that you’re wrong anyway.

Whatever you do, if you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out, almost to the point of addiction, and over a long period of time. If you’re not willing to put in the time and work, don’t expect to receive any rewards. Consistent(堅(jiān)持不懈的), hard work won’t guarantee(保證) you the level of success you may want, but it will guarantee that you will become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.

1.What can we learn from paragraph 1?

A. the meaning of success B. the reasons for success

C. the standards of success D. the importance of success

2.Paragraph 2 tells us .

A. how to succeed B. why to set a goal

C. how to get good at something D. how to practice

3.That successful people suggest doing what one loves is based on the fact that .

A. work makes one feel pain B. one tends to enjoy his work

C. it takes a lot of time to succeed D. one gives up his work easily

4.What is the main idea of the passage?

A. Having a goal is important to success.

B. Luck, talent and family help to achieve success.

C. Being good is different from being great.

D. One cannot succeed without time and practice.

Lately, Bolivia has outlawed (宣布……為非法) the use of animals in circus (馬戲團(tuán)) performances, and officials in the South American nation aren’t doing it in a silly way! They say all Bolivian circuses must stop using animals.

Some people welcome the law. They say animals should not be forced to work and that circus creatures are caged in tight spaces when they travel. However, other people say that many of the four legged performers are cared for by animal experts. Plus, they point out, circus animals entertain millions of fans.

Should animals perform in circuses? Student reporters Michael and Emily have done some work on the issue.

Yes, I think animals should be allowed in circus acts. Most circus trainers love and respect the animals they work with and treat them well. Certain rules and regulations also help to ensure that the animals are treated humanely, or with kindness. Millions of people love circus animals. They look forward to seeing elephants and tigers perform. Many of the animals are exotic (奇特的), so people might not get the chance to see them anywhere else. “Circus animals shouldn’t be banned,” says Parker, a sixth grader from Oregon City, “One of the main reasons people go to the circus is to see animals they don’t see every day and to see them do cool tricks.”

Animals should not perform in circuses. When animals are in circuses, they are forced to learn new behaviors in order to entertain humans. Those behaviors may go against their natural instincts (本性). For example, bears hibernate in the winter, but bears in a circus have to perform and can’t hibernate as their bodies tell them to. Also, circus animals have to travel all the time in cages. All that traveling may cause them to become confused or upset because their environment keeps changing. “When animals are removed from their habitat and held in cages ... it changes their behaviors,” points out Anne Northam, a teacher from Friendswood, Texas. “They are no longer selfsufficient (自給自足的).”

1.Which of the following can be a reason why people support the law?

A. Animals in circuses are given more respect and care.

B. Animals in circuses bring a lot of fun for people.

C. Animals in circuses can’t live their life naturally.

D. Animals in circuses are protected by many regulations.

2.What’s Anne’s attitude towards the new law?

A. She welcomes it.

B. She is against it.

C. She thinks it acceptable.

D. She thinks it useless.

3.Which would be the best title for the text?

A. Enjoy more fun in circuses

B. More respect and kindness to animals

C. Circuses in Bolivia Open or Closed

D. Animals belong in circuses Yes or No

4.The underlined word “hibernate” in the last paragraph probably means __________.

A. sleep B. look for food C. move from one place to another D. perform
