Alex Taw，a 21­year­old student from Wiltshire，England.He spent last summer like any other high school graduate—hanging out with friends，preparing for college，worrying about his university fees.While most of his peers gave up on their pipe dreams，he sat down with a notebook at home，and jotted down (草草記下) the question：How can I become a millionaire?
The result was the MillionDollarHomepage.com.Alex’s initial investment was 50 pounds to buy web space and a domain (領(lǐng)域) name.He divided the blank homepage into one million pixels (電腦上的像點(diǎn))，10,000 blocks of 100 pixels each.Each pixel was worth $1 with minimum purchase 100 pixels.Within a month Alex had earned some $37,000，enough for him to cover the entire cost of his forthcoming three years at university.In just a few months，he became a real millionaire.
How did he come up with the idea of the Million Dollar Homepage?
“Well，I was trying to think of a way to make some money before I started university，as I was about to take on a huge debt and I was already overdrawn (透支)．Swift action was necessary！”He said.
He also added，“The important thing is that anything is possible—we are only limited by our imagination.I always had this belief that a good idea can be successful on its own.I think I’ve learnt that if we think deeper there are magical solutions hiding away for us to find.”
His personal philosophy around money is：Money is not everything，but it’s an essential part of the way we live.Having_some_removes_a_certain_amount_of_stress，but，unless_we_are_careful，it_can_create_a_new_type_of_stress.
He also said，“I still want to go to university.Aside from gaining knowledge about business，there are other reasons—exploring your interests，meeting new people，and being in a creative environment.”
Besides making contributions to society，he would try to encourage and inspire people to think of creative solutions to problems，whatever they are.

His name is James，but people call him Rocky.The name fits.He’s big，over six feet tall，and he’s tough when he needs to  be.James “Rocky” Robinson lives and works in New York City’s Bedford­Stuyvesant district，one of the poorest and most dangerous neighborhoods in the United States.Yet it is here in Bed­Stuy that he is saving lives and reviving a community.
In 1966，when Rocky was twenty­six years old，his seven­year­old niece was struck by a car on the street of Bed­Stuy.Had someone at the scene known first aid or CPR，she might have lived.But by the time she reached a hospital，she was dead.
His niece’s unnecessary death was one reason why Rocky became a paramedic (護(hù)理人員)．Working for the Emergency Medical Service of New York City，he realized that more than half the city’s emergency calls came from high­crime areas.According to Rocky，residents of crime­plagued minority neighborhoods like Bed­Stuy sometimes had to wait as long as 26 minutes after calling 911 for an ambulance while calls in richer white communities were answered in_a_fraction_of_the_time.
Rocky decided to find out more about the problem.His research showed that the richer communities had organized their own ambulance corps (特殊部隊(duì)) to improve city services because the city was overwhelmed with calls.“If that’s the key to success，”he told his friend and EMT (Emergency Medical Technician) colleague，Joe Perez，“we’ll start our own corps in Bed­Stuy！”
In 1988，Rocky had no idea that he and Joe would be attempting to establish the first minority­run ambulance service in the country，or just how creative he would have to be to overcome the difficulty.The pair’s first challenge was to find a location for the headquarters.They took over an abandoned building that was commonly used by drug dealers.Because there was no electricity or running water (except for the leaks in the roof)，the two men worked during daylight hours.They used a two­way radio to receive emergency calls.
Although they could make do with their new headquarters，Rocky and Joe still lacked the most important component of an ambulance service：an ambulance.An old Chevrolet (雪佛蘭) got them to the scenes of accidents，fires，shootings，and stabbings.But the car didn’t always start.At times，they were forced to strap (用帶捆綁) their trauma kits and oxygen tanks to their backs and run on foot to the emergencies.Everyone laughed，except the victims who were still alive when  Rocky and Joe arrived.
小題1:The author believes the name “Rocky” fits James because________.
A．he is a tall and tough man
B．he is tall and does something big
C．he is living in a tough community
D．he leads a tough community
小題2:James’ seven­year­old niece would have been saved if________.
A．she had been sent to a better hospital
B．she had got first aid and arrived in hospital earlier
C．James had been at the spot
D．emergency calls had been available in the area
小題3:The underlined phrase in Paragraph 3 means________.
A．in a short time
B．over a long time
C．in the near future
D．from time to time
小題4:We can infer from Paragraph 4 that________.
A．a(chǎn)mbulance corps were only allowed in rich white communities
B．James found white communities made more emergency calls
C．city services were not enough to meet people’s need
D．it was easy to establish the minority­run ambulance service

If you are ever planning to buy a telescope and want to get yourself involved in astronomy it is always a good idea to know a bit of the sky.Get acquainted with a few constellations(星座) so that it will be easier for you to spot the constellations when you are using your telescope.
It’s a good idea to buy a few magazines on astronomy to help you to get familiar with the constellations in the sky and also read a few reviews on the different types of telescopes in the market.This will help you gather all the information that is out there regarding telescopes and what people have to say about them.
It’s advisable to go in for a pair of binoculars(雙筒望遠(yuǎn)鏡) before you buy your first telescope so that you can get used to spotting constellations before your view of the sky is narrowed down.This will also help you know if you really want to get involved in astronomy.Many people buy a costly telescope and then discover that they’re not actually interested in astronomy.
Experience has no substitute，and there certainly is nothing better than using different telescopes before you buy one.This will help you to get the feel of all the types of telescopes and you will know which one is easier for you to use.A large aperture(光圈) refractor(折射) may give you an excellent image but you may not be able to keep a steady hand while using it resulting in a blurry image.
There are three types of telescopes that are available in the market.If you want a more elegant looking telescope you can always choose to buy a fine brass telescope.It’s good to become acquainted with each type before going for the plunge of a first telescope.The first type of telescope is the refractor telescope，which uses lenses to gather light to a focus at the eye piece.The use of lenses helps the telescope have a superior image.A refracting telescope is not as portable as the other two types of telescopes and so you will have to buy one with a small aperture.
The second type of telescope is the Reflector.Made by Sir Isaac Newton，this telescope functions by focusing the light back at the front of the tube，which is where the eyepiece sits，by using parabolic(拋物線的) mirrors and another smaller mirror to deflect the light.There is no added color in the image caused by refraction of light since this telescope does not use lenses.These are the cheapest of all telescopes and are more portable than refractors.
小題1:According to the text，a telescope is intended to be bought for ________.
A．getting experience
B．watching stars
C．studying the climate
D．learning about a bit of the sky
小題2:What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A．One must know something about astronomy and telescopes.
B．One can’t buy a telescope without buying several astronomy magazines.
C．One should check the telescopes in the market and try to find a better one.
D．One must be familiar with new information of astronomy and space instruments.
小題3:Why does the author advise buying a pair of binoculars first?
A．The telescope is too expensive.
B．The binoculars are easier to use.
C．You may gain plenty of experience in astronomy.
D．Your view will be narrow by using a pair of binoculars.
小題4:What do we know about the refracting telescope?
A．It looks very elegant.
B．It refracts light by an eye piece.
C．It has clear images without any lenses.
D．It is not convenient to take along for its size.

People in cities all over the world shop in supermarkets. Who decides what you buy in the supermarket? Do you decide? Does the supermarket decide?
When you enter the supermarket, you see shelves full of food. You walk in the aisles (走道) between the shelves. You push a shopping cart and put your food in it.
You probably hear soft, slow music as you walk along the aisles. This may be an attempt to please you, so you will enjoy shopping. Some supermarkets want to increase their profits by playing soft and slow music, because the slow music makes you walk slowly and you have more time to buy things.
Fresh fruit and vegetables are usually put near the entrance. When you arrive at the supermarket, you think about the kinds of fruit and vegetables you need first. Once you’ve got that out of the way, you can relax and do the rest of the shopping without any hurry. Besides, if you see fresh goods first, it gives you a “feel good” impression of freshness, so you can not help spending your money.
Maybe you go to the meat department then. There is some meat on sale, and you want to find it. The manager of the supermarket knows where customers enter the meat department. The cheaper meat is at the other end of the meat department, away from where the customers enter. You have to walk past all the expensive meat before you find the cheaper meat. Maybe you will buy some of the expensive meat instead of the meat on sale.
Most of the food in supermarkets is very attractive. It all says “Buy me quickly!” to the customers. The fresh fruit and vegetables say “Buy me quickly!” as you walk by. The expensive meat says “Buy me quickly!” The supermarket tells you what to buy.
小題1:Some supermarkets play soft, slow music because it ______.

Some people will do just about anything to save money.And I am one of them.Take my family's last vacation.It was my six－year－old son's winter break from school，and we were heading home from Fort Lauderdale after a weeklong trip.The flight was overbooked，and Delta，the airline，offered us $400 per person in credits to give up our seats and leave the next day.I had meetings in New York，so I had to get back.But that didn't mean my husband and my son couldn't stay.I took my nine－month－old and took off for home.
The next day，my husband and son were offered more credits to take an even later flight.Yes，I encouraged—okay，ordered—them to wait it out at the airport to “earn” more Delta Dollars.Our total take：$1,600.Not bad，huh?
Now some people may think I'm a bad mother and not such a great wife either.But as a big－time bargain hunter，I know the value of a dollar.And these days，a good deal is something few of us can afford to pass up.
I've made a living looking for the best deals and exposing(揭露) the worst tricks.I have been the consumer reporter of NBC's Today show for over a decade.I have written a couple of books including one titled Tricks of the Trade：A Consumer Survival Guide.And I really do what I believe in.
I tell you this because there is no shame in getting your money's worth.I'm also tightfisted when it comes to shoes，clothes for my children，and expensive restaurants.But I wouldn't hesitate to spend on a good haircut.It keeps its shape longer，and it's the first thing people notice.And I will also spend on a classic piece of furniture.Quality lasts.

"If there is one thing I'm sure about, it is that m a hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers. It is not that newspapers are a necessity. Even now some people get  most of their news from television or radio. Many buy a paper only on Saturday or Sunday. But for most people reading a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to generation.
The nature of what is news may change .What basically makes news is what affects our lives - the big political stories, the coverage of the wars, earthquakes and other disasters, will continue much the same. I think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though .It's already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives, like genetic（基因的） engineering. In the future, I think  there will be more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we do - as we develop a better understanding of how the brain operates  and what our feelings really are.
It's quite possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted（傳送）electronically from Fleet Street and printed out in our own home. In fact ,I'm pretty sure  how it will happen m the future. You will probably be able to choose from a menu, making up your own newspaper by picking out the things you want to read - sports and international news, etc.
I think people have got it wrong when they talk about competition between the different media（媒體）．They actually feed off each  other.  Some people once foresaw that television would kill off newspapers, but that hasn't happened. What is read on the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the air. And as for the Internet. it's never really pleasant to read something just on a screen.
小題1:What is the best title for the passage?
A．The Best Way to Get NewsB．The Changes of Media
C．Make Your Own NewspaperD．The Future of Newspaper
小題2:In the writer's opinion, in the future, _______.
A．more big political affairs, wars and disasters will make news
B．newspapers will not be printed in publishing houses any longer
C．newspapers will cover more scientific research
D．more and more people will watch TV
小題3:What will probably be on in the newspaper made by yourself?
A．Sports and international news.B．A menu of important news.
C．The most Important news.D．what you are interested in.
小題4:From the passage, we can infer ________.
A．newspapers will win the competition among the different meclia
B．newspapers will stay with us together with other media
C．television will take the place of newspaper
D．the writer believe some media will die out

Chinese Dinner Table
Of course, the main difference on the Chinese dinner table is chopsticks instead of knife and fork, but that’s only superficial. Besides, in decent restaurants, you can always ask for a pair of knife and fork, if you find the chopsticks not helpful enough. The real difference is that in the West, you have your own plate of food, while in China the dishes are placed on the table and everyone shares. If you are being treated to a formal dinner and particularly if the host thinks you’re in the country for the first time, he will do the best to give you a taste of many different types of dishes.
The meal usually begins with a set of at least four cold dishes, to be followed by the main courses of hot meat and vegetable dishes. Soup then will be served (unless in Guangdong style restaurants) to be followed by staple food ranging from rice, noodles to dumplings. If you wish to have your rice to go with other dishes, you should say so in good time, for most of the Chinese choose to have the staple food at last or have none of them at all.
Perhaps one of the things that surprise a western visitor most is that some of the Chinese hosts like to put food into the plates of their guests. In formal dinners, there are always “public” chopsticks and spoons for this purpose, but some hosts may use their own chopsticks. This is a sign of genuine friendship and politeness. It is always polite to eat the food. If you do not eat it, just leave the food in the plate.
People in China tend to over-order food, for they will find it embarrassing if all the food is consumed. When you have had enough, just say so. Or you will always overeat!
小題1:The real difference on dinner table between China and West is that___________.
A．You’re treated to a formal dinner for the first time.
B．On Chinese dinner table, chopsticks replace knife and fork.
C．The host will do the best to give you a taste of many different types of dishes.
D．You have your own plate of food in West while in China everyone shares the dishes.
小題2:If you have a dinner in a Chinese home, in which order will the food be served?
a. serving soup.
b.a set of four cold dishes.
c. staple food such as rice, noodle or dumplings.
d. the main courses of hot meat and vegetable dishes.
A．badcB．cabdC．bdac D．cdab
小題3:The “public chopsticks and spoons” are used to ______.
A．taste different dishes
B．consume the food in the plate
C．show the friendship and politeness
