A small boy sat on the street with a hat by his feet. He held up a sign which said: “ I am blind, please help”. There were only a few coins in the hat.

A man was walking by. He took a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words. He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by would see the new words. Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were.

The boy recognized his footsteps and asked :“Were you the one who changed my sign this morning? What did you write?” The man said: “I only wrote the truth. I said what you said but in a different way.”

What he had written was: “Today is a beautiful day but I cannot see it.”

Do you think the first sign and the second sign were saying the same thing? Of course both signs told people the boy was blind. But the first sign simply told people to help by putting some money in the hat. The second sign told people that they were able to enjoy the day, but the boy could not enjoy it because he was blind.

The first sign simply said the boy was blind. The second sign told people they were so lucky that they were not blind.

There are at least two lessons we can learn from this simple story.

The first is: Be thankful for what you have. Someone else has less. Help where you can.

The second is:Be creative. Think differently. There is always a better way!

1. What was the boy doing on the street?

A. He was selling his old hat.

B. He was busy counting coins.

C. He was begging for money.

D. He was showing his handwriting.

2. How did the man help the blind boy?

A. He took the boy's sign away.

B. He only gave the boy some money.

C. He changed the words on the sign.

D. He asked others to help the blind boy.

3. The blind boy recognized the kind man by his ______ .

Photography has been my interest ever since I was old enough to pick up a camera, but today I want to share with you the 15 most treasured photos of mine, and I didn’t take any of them. There were no art directors, no stylists, no chance for reshoots, not even any regard for lighting. In fact, most of them were taken by random tourists.

My story begins when I was in New York City for a speech, and my wife took a picture of me holding my daughter on her first birthday. We’re on the corner of the 57th and 5th avenue. We happened to be back in New York exactly a year later, so we decided to take the same picture.

Well you can see where this is going. Approaching my daughter’s third birthday, my wife said, “Hey, why don’t you take Sabina back to New York and make it a father-daughter trip, and continue the ceremony?” This is when we started asking passing tourists to take the picture.

So these photos are far more than representatives for a single moment, or even a specific trip. They’re also ways for us to freeze time for one week in October and reflect on our times and how we change from year to year, and nor just physically, but in every way. Because while we take the same photo, our viewpoints change, and she reaches new milestones and I get to see life through her eyes, and how she communicates with and sees everything. This very focused time we get to spend together is something we value and expect the entire year.

1.What can we know about the author from the first paragraph?

A. He is fond of being photographed alone.

B. He hardly ever asks strangers to take pictures of him.

C. He has been interested in photography since childhood.

D. He’s proud of the 15 most treasured photos taken by himself.

2.Who came up with the idea of having a father-daughter trip when Sabina was 3 years old?

A. Her mother. B. Her father.

C. Sabina herself D. An unknown tourist.

3.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that .

A. children usually get to see life through adults’ eyes

B. the 15 photos are meaningful to the author’s family

C. it takes the author a whole week to have a family photo taken

D. the viewpoints of the author’s family never change with the time.

4.What can be the best title of the text?

A. Believe it or not; photos do change

B. Photos help a family become rich

C. Even strangers can help take photographs

D. A father-daughter bond, one photo at a time

The thing is,my luck’s always been ruineD. Just look at my name: Jean.Not Jean Marie,or Jeanine,or Jeanette,or even Jeanne.Just Jean.Did you know in France,they name boys Jean? It’s French for John.And okay,I don’t live in France.But still,I’m basically a girl named John.If I lived in France,anyway.

This is the kind of luck I’ve had since before Mom even filled out my birth certificate.So it wasn’t any big surprise to me when the cab driver didn’t help me with my suitcase.I’d already had to tolerate arriving at the airport to find no one there to greet me,and then got no answer to my many phone calls,asking where my aunt and uncle were.Did they not want me after all? Had they changed their minds? Had they heard about my bad luck—all the way from Iowa—and decided they didn’t want any of it to rub off on them?

So when the cab driver,instead of getting out and helping me with my bags,just pushed a little button so that the trunk (汽車后備箱) popped open a few inches,it wasn’t the worst thing that had ever happened to me.It wasn’t even the worst thing that had happened to me that day.

According to my mom,most brownstones in New York City were originally single-family homes when they were built way back in the 1800s.But now they’ve been divided up into apartments,so that there’s one—or sometimes even two or more families—per floor.

Not Mom’s sister Evelyn’s brownstone,though.Aunt Evelyn and Uncle Ted Gardiner own all four floors of their brownstone.That’s practically one floor per person,since Aunt Evelyn and Uncle Ted only have three kids,my cousins Tory,Teddy,and Alice.

Back home,we just have two floors,but there are seven people living on them.And only one bathroom.Not that I’m complaining.Still,ever since my sister Courtney discovered blow-outs,it’s been pretty frightful at home.

But as tall as my aunt and uncle’s house was,it was really narrow—just three windows across.Still,it was a very pretty townhouse,painted gray.The door was a bright,cheerful yellow.There were yellow flower boxes along the base of each window,flower boxes from which bright red—and obviously newly planted,since it was only the middle of April,and not quite warm enough for them.

It was nice to know that,even in a sophisticated (世故的) city like New York,people still realized how homey and welcoming a box of flowers could be.The sight of those flowers cheered me up a little.

Like maybe Aunt Evelyn and Uncle Ted just forgot I was arriving today,and hadn’t deliberately failed to meet me at the airport because they’d changed their minds about letting me come to stay.

Like everything was going to be all right,after all.

Yeah.With my luck,probably not.

I started up the steps to the front door of 326 East Sixty-Ninth Street,then realized I couldn’t make it with both bags and my violin.Leaving one bag on the sidewalk,I dragged the other up the steps with me.Maybe I took the steps a little too fast,since I nearly tripped and fell flat on my face on the sidewalk.I managed to catch myself at the last moment by grabbing some of the fence the gardeners had put up…

1.Why did the author go to New York?

A. She intended to go sightseeing there.

B. She meant to stay with her aunt’s family.

C. She was homeless and adopted by her aunt.

D. She wanted to try her luck and find a job there.

A. she was given a boy’s name in French

B. the cab driver didn’t help her with her bags

C. her sister Courtney discovered blow-outs

D. nobody had come to meet her at the airport

3.The underlined phrase “rub off on” in Paragraph 3 probably means _________.

B. play tricks on

C. put pressure on

D. throw doubt on

The moment a college student arrives on campus, he or she is bombarded with credit card offers. Advertisements for student credit cards are everywhere: in bags at the bookstore, in the campus newspaper, in your regular mailbox, in the residence halls.

With so many college students graduating with large amounts of credit card debt (figures vary, but most are at least in the thousands), learning how to manage a student credit card can be an important lesson for any student. While using a card wisely can be an important part of building credit and making it through a difficult time, knowing how to use a card wisely can be the hard part.

Stick to the following rules when, and if, you need to use a credit card:

You can repay the charge(s) within the card’s next billing cycle.

You must meet your basic needs, like food, clothing and shelter, but set rules and be aware that you will need to repay those charges at the end of the month.

You can talk to the financial aid office in your school for an alternative in “emergency” situations.

If you do want a credit card, just be smart about it. (They let you in to that school because of your brain, right?) Don’t automatically get the first one you find. Shop around for a card that has the lowest interest rate possible, and consider places that may not be advertising on campus. Additionally, be aware of any card’s repayment options: When will payments be due? How much will they be? A credit card is not like a loan that comes with a grace period(寬限期)after you graduate and waits until you are done with school. That new sweater and nice dinner out will need to be paid back right away.

1.What does the underlined phrase in Paragraph 1 mean?

A. Be confused by. B. Be terribly hurt by.

C. Be attracted by. D. Be surrounded by.

2.Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. A college freshman should be careful when choosing a credit card.

B. Students should take a lesson about how to use a credit card wisely.

C. A credit card will be the only help for students in emergency situations.

D. The author doesn’t appreciate the idea of having a credit card on campus.

3.What’s the best tittle for this passage?

A. Economic Tips for College Students

B. Dos and Don’ts in Using Student Credit Cards

C. Mistakes about Student Credit Cards Use in College

D. Student Credit Cards –– What You Need to Know

4.If this is a passage of a college newspaper, in which column can we read it?

A. Entertainment. B. Advertisement.

C. Economy. D. Education.

How to protect your ears

You and your friends are leaving a concert on a Friday night. When you get outside, your ears are ringing. You have to shout to be heard. 1._So no harm done…right?

Not quite. Temporary buzzing may be easy to ignore, but repeated exposure to loud noise will eventually cause serious and irreversible(無(wú)法治愈的) hearing loss. A new study conducted by researchers at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston shows that one in five people between the ages of 12 and 19 are experiencing slight hearing loss, and one in 20 have mild hearing loss._ 2. __But the good news is that there plenty of ways you can protect your ears from further damage — and still listen to the music you love:

Ask around. Put your ear buds in or your headphones on, and then ask a friend next to you whether or not he or she can hear what you’re listening to.__ 3.__Turn it down.

Buy noise-canceling headphones. A pair of ear buds or headphones that fits comfortably will limit outside noise so that you can hear your music better at lower volumes.

Take breaks.__ 4.__So when listening to music, take your headphones off for 15 or 20 minutes and let your ears enjoy the quiet.

___5.__You can buy a cheap pair at any drugstore as an easy way to lower volume at concerts — or while playing or practicing your own music — without changing the quality of the sound.

A. Use earplugs.

B. Keep the volume below 70 percent.

C. If the answer is yes, your music is too loud.

D. Like every other part of your body, your ears need rest.

E. But by morning, your hearing is totally back to normal.

F. Unfortunately, there’s no way to get back hearing you’ve already lost.

G.. The exposure to noise is louder and longer than in any previous generation.

Helicopter parenting is an expression that describes parents who are over focused on their child, like a helicopter hovering ( 盤旋 ) closely over him, whether he needs them or not.

__1.__ As family sizes are getting smaller, more attention is focused on the one or two children and some parents have responded by taking more control over their lives. Also, many parents are making an attempt to develop close bonds with their children, often being overly involved in their lives. Also, some parents always fear that their children may fail in what they want to achieve, so they try to prevent the serious consequence, especially if it seems it could be avoided with parental involvement.

Sometimes the practice continues to spread due to what is called “peer (同齡人) pressure”. When parents observe other parents overparenting, it will pressure them to do the same to make sure that their own children don’t fall behind.

__2.__ For example, by always “doing” for the child, the hovering parents don’t give the child a chance to fully develop his sense of independence. As a result, the child may lack the confidence necessary to do well in school. As an adult, he might find it difficult to deal with life’s challenges. __3.__ Research has shown that helicopter parents have more anxiety because they constantly judge their own value by their children’s success.

__4.__ Experts suggest that you should let your child do tasks that he is physically and mentally capable of doing by himself, which will help to build a self-confident kid. __5.___ Gradually, your child will learn independence as he steps out on his own. Meanwhile, valuable lessons can occur when making mistakes. So if your child is allowed to make mistakes, he’s given the opportunity to learn from those lessons.

A. So how can you avoid being a helicopter parent?

B. There are a number of reasons for helicopter parenting.

C. There may be various consequences of helicopter parenting.

D. The term “helicopter parents” has been widely used in the media.

E. This parenting style also affects the parents.

F. It is also important to let your child struggle while trying new activities.

G. Some parents are just protecting their investment or acting like any other consumer.

Animals are not always animals. Some of them will try to cheat or cow some others in the way the human beings often do. Here is a fairy tale from Aesop for you to enjoy.

An eagle(鷹)made her nest at the top of a high tree while a cat, having found a convenient hole, moved into the middle of the trunk, and at the same time a wild pig, with her young took shelter in a hollow at its foot. The cat then decided to make all serve her in her wise way.

To carry out her design, she climbed to the nest of the eagle, saying, "Destruction is preparing for you and for me too, unfortunately. The wild pig, whom you see daily digging up the earth, wishes to uproot the tree, so she may on its fall seize our families as food for her young."

Having thus frightened the eagle out of her senses, she crept down to the cave of the pig, saying, "Your children are in great danger, for as soon as you go out to find food, the eagle is prepared to jump upon one of your little pigs."

Having filled these fears into the pig, she went and pretended to hide herself in the hollow of the tree. When night came she went out silently and obtained food for herself and her children, but pretending to be afraid, she kept a lookout all through the day. Meanwhile, the eagle, full of fear of the pig, sat still on the branches, and the pig, terrified by the eagle, did not dare to go out from her cave. Thus they both, along with their families, starved from hunger, and afforded good food for the cat and her children.

1.What was the eagle afraid of?

A. Her home would be destroyed.

B. Her children would get lost.

C. She would be taken as the cat’s food.

D. Her family would be eaten by the wild pig.

2. What was the pig frightened of?

A. The eagle would kill her young child.

B. The eagle would cheat her away.

C. The cat was telling the true story.

D. She could not find enough food.

3. How did the cat get what she wanted?

A. By running here and there.

B. By cheating both the eagle and the pig.

C. By waiting and catching the chance.

D. By fighting against the eagle and the pig.

4. Which of the following might be the best title of the above passage?

A. Believe it or not. B. Animal stories.

C. How one can be successful. D. Don’t be afraid.
