作者把“優(yōu)勝美地國家公園（美國加州最著名的旅游景點）”當做自己家一樣愛上了它。當作者看到公園里面有大量垃圾時，開始是自己去撿，后來組織大家去撿。由此作者明白了這樣的道理：改變事情的方法是動手去做，而不是抱怨。
小題1:根據(jù)3300 feet 和 giant得知巨大的rock，所以選擇huge。
小題2:根據(jù)句意“我觸摸到那塊巨石時，立刻知道我要攀登上去”選A項“立刻”
小題3:根據(jù)上文的climb選擇答案。
小題4:根據(jù)下文第二段的尾句“treated such a beautiful home-like place this way.”中的home。
小題5:根據(jù)like toilet paper，beer cans，empty boxes，知道是垃圾（廢棄物），選擇waste。
小題6:超越了我的理解，只有beyond可以表示這個含義。句意：我不能理解游客為什么不愛護這個地方……。
小題7:根據(jù)上文得知，人們很少關(guān)心環(huán)境。
小題8:根據(jù)上文對游客丟垃圾的不解，于是自己盡力去撿垃圾。pick up表示撿起，throw away表示扔掉，break down表示損壞，dig out表示挖掘
小題9:撿垃圾的工作量很大，作者往往要花費一兩個小時去做。
小題10:根據(jù)上文“only to find the area trashed all over again weeks later.結(jié)果發(fā)現(xiàn)幾個星期后這個地區(qū)又是滿地垃圾”和下文“I decided something had to change.（我決定改變一些方法）”推斷作者對自己一個人撿垃圾已經(jīng)感到力不從心即疲憊了。tired of表示對……厭煩，satisfied with表示對……感到滿意，delighted in表示以……為快樂，used to表示過去常常
小題11:后文but說明前后是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，后面說作者舉辦的活動很成功，那么前面應(yīng)選擇“nothing”說明作者不知道如何組織大型活動。
小題12:根據(jù)下文“Each year volunteers come for the cleanup from everywhere.”中的“cleanup”可以知道是“清掃”工作。
小題13:根據(jù)下一句“Over three days we collected about 6,000 pounds of trash.三天時間我們清理了6,000磅的垃圾”可以知道“那天有300多人參加（出席）了這次活動”。 show up表示出席，drop out表示離開，look around表示四下觀望，call back表示回電話
小題14:“我們”能做完這么多工作真是令人驚訝。A要求；B收到；C完成；D戰(zhàn)勝。
小題15:根據(jù)破折號后面的“the park looked clean!”可知，我們把公園里的垃圾撿完了，公園干凈了，變得跟以前不一樣了，作者難以置信。make difference造成差別。
小題16:cover表示覆蓋了132英里的路程。A穿過；B測量；D設(shè)計。句意：就2007年一年，2,945 人撿起了42,330磅的垃圾，覆蓋了132英里的路程。
小題17:根據(jù)33空后的“complaining”可知答案。句意：我常常聽到人們抱怨他們周圍的環(huán)境。
小題18:改變事情的唯一方法是動手去做，而不是抱怨。
小題19:by example通過榜樣。
小題20:你不要責(zé)備別人，除非你以身作則，選擇unless。

"Super Dan", as top-seeded Lin Dan of China is better known in the badminton（羽毛球） world, had his Olympic dream come true after claiming the men's singles gold by beating Lee Chong Wei of Malaysia on August 17 in the Beijing Olympics.
His father, Lin Jianbin, said "Super Dan"has waited for four years to get this championship and he felt very proud of his son, as well as his prospective daughter-in-law Xie Xingfang, who is also a badminton player and won silver in women's singles at the Beijing Games.
An SMS: The beginning of a love story
Lin was born in Shanghang County, Longyan in Fujian Province. He first met Xie Xingfang when he was 14-years-old. 16-year-old Xie was attending a national youth team badminton training camp in Jinjiang, Fujian and Lin was also there.
Tall and beautiful, Xie became the Snow White in the heart of Lin Dan, and he tried to please her and get chances to chat with her after the training sessions. He did not go beyond that.
Before the Spring Festival in 2004, Lin finally mustered（召集，聚集） the courage and sent Xie Xingfang a text message - I LOVE YOU. In fact, Xie Xingfang had already realized Lin Dan was fond of her. And covertly（秘密地） , she began to pay attention to Lin's movement and performance on the court. "He is very interesting, got a lot of ideas, and is a lovely boy."
Two Kisses
In May 2004 at the Thomas Cup in Jakarta, their love relationship was first known to the public. Xie sat with her teammates and watched the men's team playing. When Lin Dan won the match, he rushed to the bench and kissed Xie, a move that Xie did not expect Lin to do in public. A photographer captured this moment.
At the All England Open in 2007, Lin kissed her again in public, making Xie feel like the happiest woman in the world.
After Lin won his third title at the Open, he did not stay to watch Xie play. Xie defeated her opponent and won the championship. When she was called to accept the trophy（獎品，戰(zhàn)利品） , Lin suddenly emerged at the central venue, holding red roses and gave her the flowers, and a passionate kiss.
Nine Roses
Earlier, on February 14, 2006, Lin and Xie were with the national badminton teams at a training camp in Jinjiang. The teams had their rules – not going out of the training camp. Xie thought she would spend the Valentine's Day without flowers.
But Lin still managed to give her a surprise – giving her a Dior wallet as a Valentine's gift and nine roses. With the teams' rule in place, Lin asked his local friend to buy the roses and gave her a pleasant Valentines surprise.
A 200-square-meter apartment
Lin Dan and Xie Xingfang's love has been through four years of tests, and Xie's father also said that they should consider marriage after the Olympics.
In fact, Lin Dan has already prepared for this. He has bought a 200-square-meter apartment in downtown Beijing, with 4 rooms and 2 living rooms. Paying about 20,000 yuan per square meter for the apartment, it is reported the apartment is now valued at 8 million yuan.
"After the Olympics, we really want to live our own lives, go on vacation, go to school, get married, I am really looking forward to it," Xie said happily.
With two kitchens, one Chinese and one Western style, Xie said she wanted to be the person preparing soup at home and enjoy family life.
小題1:How old was Lin Dan when he first met Xie Xingfang?
A．14B．16C．18D．20
小題2:What does Xie Xingfang specialize in?
A．tennisB．badminton
C．basketballD．swimming
小題3:What did Lin Dan give Xie Xingfang as a gift for the Valentinge’s Day in 2006?
A．A Chanel perfumeB．A Dior wallet
C．An LV handbagD．A Tiffany ring
小題4:When are the plans of this couple after the Olympic except _____?
A．to start businessB．to go to school
C．to go on vacationD．to get married

Three Boys and a Dad
Brad closed the door slowly as Sue left home to visit her mother. Expecting a whole day to relax, he was thinking whether to read the newspaper or watch his favourite TV talk show on his first day off in months. “This will be like a walk in the park,” he’d told his wife. “I’ll look after the kids, and you can go visit your mom.”
Things started well, but just after eight o’clock, his three little “good kids”—Mike, Randy, and Alex—came down the stairs in their night clothes and shouted “breakfast, daddy.” When food had not appeared within thirty seconds, Randy began using his spoon on Alex’s head as if it were a drum. Alex started to shout loudly in time to the beat（節(jié)拍）. Mike chanted “Where’s my toast, where’s my toast” in the background. Brad realized his newspaper would have to wait for a few seconds.
Life became worse after breakfast. Mike wore Randy’s underwear on his head. Randy locked himself in the bathroom, while Alex shouted again because he was going to wet his pants. Nobody could find clean socks, although they were before their very eyes. Someone named “Not Me” had spilled a whole glass of orange juice into the basket of clean clothes. Brad knew the talk show had already started.
By ten o’clock, things were out of control. Alex was wondering why the fish in the jar refused his bread and butter. Mike was trying to show off his talent by decorating the kitchen wall with his colour pencils. Randy, thankfully, appeared to be reading quietly in the family room，but closer examination showed that he was eating apple jam straight from the bottle with his hands. Brad realised that the talk show was over and reading would be impossible.
At exactly 11:17, Brad called the daycare centre (日托所）.“I suddenly have to go into work and my wife’s away. Can I bring the boys over in a few minutes?” The answer was obviously “yes” because Brad was smiling.
小題1:When his wife left home. Brad expected to          .
A．go out for a walk in the park
B．watch TV talk show with his children
C．enjoy his first day off work
D．read the newspaper to his children
小題2:Which of the following did Randy do?
A．Drawing on the wallB．Eating apple jam
C．Feeding the fish.D．Reading in a room
小題3:Why did Brad ask the daycare centre for help?
A．Because he wanted to clean up his house.
B．Because he suddenly had to go to his office
C．Because he found it hard to manage his boys home.
D．Because he had to take his wife back

Buster Brown was a thief and a good one too，he thought． He’d never been caught by the police because he never took chances．He was always prepared for any unforeseen event or emergency.
Confidently，he stood outside the house of his intended victim(受害者)and read the sign on the front gate of the house．“Don't worry about the dog—be aware of the owner!” it said．Buster smiled and found his way in．
The house looked quite normal outside，but inside it was very exotic with fascinating objects on display．As he began putting them into his bag，a dog came into the room．It stopped when it saw Buster，then wagged its tail madly and went over to him，licking his outstretched hand．  "Good boy，” Buster whispered． “What a great guard dog you are—trying to lick me to death.” Satisfied he'd made friends with the dog，Bluster began to wander round the house，choosing items to put in his bag．His skilled eye picked out only the best antiques(古董)：a pair of silver candleholders，a silver tea-and-coffee service，etc．．His new friend，the dog，sat and watched，as if wondering what was happening．
“Well，boy，” Buster whispered，finally．“That might do．Any more and I won't be able to carry it!” He swung the heavy bag onto his shoulders, just as the lights came on, nearly blinding him. He shielded his eyes with his hand.
"You're a very silly person," the figure in the doorway said, his voice dry and dust. As the man came closer, Buster could see he was well dressed. His face seemed familiar, but Buster couldn't quite place where he had seen him before.
"You should have taken more notice of the sign outside," the man rasped. "I knew about this attempted robbery last week and I also know you will end up behind bars for 20 years. Fancy trying to rob the house of the world's greatest fortune-teller!"

NBA commissioner David Stern was in Orlando on Thursday night, getting ready for Sunday’s All-Star Game. Of course, all he could talk about was the only player anyone wants to talk about these days: New York Knicks guard Jeremy Lin.
Hours before Lin took the court against the Heat, a few hundred miles South down I-95 in Miami, Stern told reporters that Lin’s instant popularity hasn’t ever been matched in sports history, not even by Sunday’s biggest names, LeBron James or Kobe Bryant.
The Associated Press had the details.
“I haven’t done a calculation, but it’s fair to say that no player has created the interest and the craze in this short period of time, in any sport, that I’m aware of like Jeremy Lin has,” Stern said Thursday.
Lin, an undrafted(未選秀的)guard from Harvard, has become the NBA’s biggest story since coming off the Knicks’ bench earlier this month to lead them to nine wins in 11 games heading into their matchup with Miami on Thursday night.
With Lin’s popularity in Asia as the league’s first American-born player of Chinese or Taiwanese descent, and with the religious community because of his strong Christian faith, Stern says he’s “never quite seen anything like” the attention on Lin.
“It’s fascinating,” Stern said after the All-Star Jam Session opening ceremonies.
The top five videos on NBA.com since Feb. 4, when Lin joined the circulation, are all Lin or Knicks related. Lin went from 190,000 followers on Sina, China’s version of Twitter, on Feb. 2 to more than 1 million as of Feb. 16.
Indeed, Lin’s popularity is so out of this world that the NBA made a late list switch to ensure his participation in the Rising Stars Challenge on All-Star Saturday, a game that includes the NBA’s best rookies(新秀球員)and sophomores. Lin is in such high demand that all of the game’s other participants will meet with the media following a team practice on Friday while Lin will have his own, separate press conference later in the night. 
This is Jeremy’s world, folks. We’re all just living in it. Even David Stern and the rest of the league’s All-Stars, at least for the moment. 
小題1:The following statements about Jeremy Lin’s instant popularity are true EXCEPT that ______.
A．Jeremy Lin led New York Knicks to win all the recent games this month
B．David Stern said Lin was the only instant popular player in NBA’s history
C．Lin has become the NBA’s greatest story though he was an undrafted guard
D．no player has created the interest and the enthusiasm in such a short period of time
小題2:Why did Jeremy Lin have so many followers in Asia on Sina, China’s version of Twitter?
A. Because Jeremy Lin was born in Taiwan with strong Christian faith.
B. Maybe because he is the first player born in America but has Chinese descent.
C. Because Sina has a large group of surfing people, maybe more than 10 million.
D. Because the top five videos on NBA. com since Feb. 4 are all Lin or Knicks related.
小題3:The underlined phrase “out of this world” in Paragraph 9 may probably be replaced by ______.
A．impossibleB．importantC．exceptionalD．excellent
小題4:What can we learn from the above passage about Jeremy Lin’s instant popularity?
A．Knowledge starts with practice.B．Failure is the mother of success.
C．Every dog has its day.D．No pains, no gains.

As we drove along, my spirits went up again, and I turned, with pleasure, to the thought of the new life which I was entering. But though it was not far past the middle of September, the heavy clouds and strong north-easterly wind combined to make the day extremely cold; and the journey seemed a very long one, so that it was nearly one o’clock before we reached the place of our destination. Yet when we entered the gateway, my heart failed me, and I wished it were a mile or two farther off. For the first time in my life I must stand alone: there was no retreating now. I must enter that house, and introduce myself among its strange people. But how was it to be done? True, I was near nineteen; but, thanks to the protecting care of my mother and sister, I well knew that many a girl of fifteen, or under, was gifted with a more womanly address, and greater ease and self-possession, than I was. Yet, anyway. I would do very well, after all; and the children, of course, I should soon be at ease with them.
"Be calm, be calm, whatever happens," I said within myself; and truly I was so fully occupied in steadying my nerves and keeping down the rebellious beat of my heart that when I was admitted into the hall and into the presence of Mrs. Bloomfield, I almost forgot to answer her polite greeting; and it afterwards struck me that the little I did say was spoken in the tone of one half-dead or half-asleep.
With due politeness, however, she showed me my bedroom, and left me there to take a little refreshment for a little while and led me into the dining-room. Some beefsteaks and potatoes were set before me; and while I dined upon these, she sat opposite, watching me (as I thought) and trying to keep something like a conversation— consisting chiefly of commonplace remarks. In fact, my attention was almost wholly absorbed in my dinner: not from appetite, but from the toughness of the beefsteaks, and the numbness of my hands.
“I have had so little time to attend to their education myself, but I think they are clever children, and very willing to learn, especially the little boy; he is, I think, the flower of the flock— a generous, noble-spirited boy, one to be led, but not driven, and remarkable for always speaking the truth.” “His sister Mary Ann will require watching,” continued she, “but she is a very good girl on the whole, though I wish her to be kept out of the nursery as much as possible, as she is now almost six years old, and might acquire bad habits from the nurses. I have ordered her bed to be placed in your room, and if you will be so kind as to look after her washing and dressing, and take charge of her clothes, she needs to have nothing further to do with the nursery maid.”
I replied I was quite willing to do so; and at that moment the children entered the room. Tom Bloomfield was a well-grown boy of seven. Mary was a tall girl, for her age of six, somewhat dark like her mother. The second sister was Fanny, a very pretty little girl, looking little younger than Mary. The remaining one was Harriet, a little broad, fat, merry, playful thing of scarcely two, whom I had more desire for than all the rest — but with her I had nothing to do.
小題1:Which of the following statements best describes how the writer felt when she entered Mrs. Bloomfield's home?
A．She was nervous, dissatisfied with her manners but still confident.
B．She was cold, hungry but eager to see all the children in the family.
C．She was frightened, nervous and regretful about her decision.
D．She was calm, confident and very happy with all the family.
小題2:What job would the writer take in Mrs Bloomfield's home?

Money Matters
Parents should help their children understand money.　 小題1:　 So you may start talking about money when your child shows an interest in buying things, candy or toys, for example. 
1.The basic function of money
Begin explaining the basic function of money by showing how people trade money for goods or services. It is important to show your child how money is traded for the things he wants to have. If he wants to have a toy, give him the money and let him hand the money to the cashier(收銀員).　 小題2:　 When your child grows a bit older and understands the basic function of money, you can start explaining more complex ways of using money. 
2. Money lessons
Approach money lessons with openness and honesty. 　 小題3:　 If you must say no to a child’s request to spend money, explain, “You have enough toy trucks for now.” Or, if the request is for many different things, say, “You have to make a choice between this toy and that toy.” 
3.　 小題4:　 
Begin at the grocery store. Pick out two similar brands of a product—a name-brand butter and a generic(無商標產(chǎn)品),for example. You can show your child how to make choices between different brands of a product so that you can save money.　 小題5:　If he chooses the cheaper brand, allow him to make another purchase with the money saved. Later, you may explain how the more expensive choice leaves less money for other purchases. 
A. Wise decisions.
B. The value of money.
C. Permit the child to choose between them.
D. Tell your child why he can—or cannot—have certain things.
E. Ask yourself what things that cost money are most important to you.
F. Talk about how the money bought the thing after you leave the toy store.
G. The best time to teach a child anything about money is when he shows an interest.
