Mr West had a big farm at the foot of the hill. His friend worked at the police station and often made the other farmers work for him. He never worked, but he could get much money.
Once two young men went to the forest from a city. They wanted to take their three-day holiday there. They walked in the forest in hope of shooting some animals. They waited and waited, at last they saw a hare(野兔) near a tree. They shot it and were very happy. But before they went out of the forest, Mr West stopped them and called out, “The forest is mine! All the animals here are mine, too. If you kill an animal again, I'll kill you!” With these words, he took the dead hare away. The two young men believed the forest was his. They said nothing and left.
Mr West was happy and was going to take the hare home. Suddenly he saw a large wolf behind him. He walked fast, it walked fast. He hurried off, but it followed him. He had to throw the hare to it, it ate the hare soon and then caught up with him again. He ran as quickly as possible. And when he was too tired to run further, he saw the two young men and shouted, “Please shoot the wolf!”
“Sorry, we can't, sir,” said a young man. “We're afraid you will kill us!”

Mr West wanted to buy his wife a Christmas present, but he was always very busy, so he was never able to find time to go to the shops. At last when it was the week before Christmas, and the shops were very crowded, he decided that he could not wait any longer. That day he didn't have lunch in a restaurant as usual.

After half an hour, he was just as far from the shop assistants as he had been when he came in, and his lunch hour was coming to an end, so he decided to change his way of doing things. He put his head down, gave a loud shout and started to push his way towards(朝……,向……) the front of the crowd as hard as he could.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A)、(B)、(C)、(D)中,选出最佳选项。
Meeting the English familyRosa and her classmates were in a street in West London. The sky was dark. This was Rosa's big day-her first day in England.
Rosa got out of a taxi. The driver carried a very heavy bag for her. They walked through the rain to the front door of a big Victorian house.
A small girl opened the door. She was four years old. Her brother stood behind her. He was only two years old. One minute later, a young woman came to the door.
“Welcome to Wembley!” she said and she offered Rosa her hand. “These are my two children, Elisabeth and Isaac.”
“Pleased to meet you, Mrs. Frost!” said Rosa with a strong Spanish accent.
The two children ran back into the living-room.
“Don't worry about them! They're a little shy. And please call me Diana! Now let me show you your room and then we can have a nice cup of tea. Or would you like some coffee?”
“I'd like to try a cup of English tea, made in England.”
“This is your bedroom. There's a nice view(视野) of the football stadium(露天体育场) and here's a little desk where you can study. The bathroom and toilet are just opposite your door. Now I'll go and put the kettle on.”
“Excuse me. What's a kettle?”
“In England, we use a kettle to make hot water. We can then put the hot water in a teapot or use it to make coffee.”
Rosa was happy with her new home, but she was a little puzzled(困惑的). Perhaps her mother Maruja was right. The British were not normal people. They did not kiss when they met and they lived in large Victorian palaces. Their favourite drink was tea and they used strange metal kettles to make the weather hot. What was she going to say to Elisabeth and Isaac? How could she make friends with two shy English children? Perhaps the answer was in the big, black psychology(心理学) book.
1.It was Ross's big day. She and her classmates were in ________.
[ ]
A.the west part of London
B.the middle of Spain
C.a big Victorian house
D.the living-room
2.Rosa's hostess(女主人) was called ________.
[ ]
3.What could Rosa see through the window when she was in her bedroom?
[ ]
4.In this passage the underlined(划底线的) word “it” means ________.
[ ]
5.After reading the passage, we know that ________.
[ ]
A.Rosa had some trouble in getting on well with the hostess
B.the two children didn't like Rosa
C.Mr. Frost offered Rosa much help
D.Ross was happy with the new family, but she couldn't understand some of their customs

Sunday wants to write about West Hill in Sunshine Town for her history project. She is interviewing Mr.Hu, a 60-year-old man, who lives in West Hill. Read their conversation.
Sandy: |
How long have you lived in West Hill, Mr.Hu? |
Mr.Hu: |
I’ve lived here all my life. I met my wife here and we got married. This area was called Taihe Village before. |
Sandy: |
When did they change the name? |
Mr.Hu: |
5 When the West Hill underground station was built, the government started to take down the wooden houses in this area. Since June 2000, Taihe Village has become history. |
Sandy: |
What do you miss most about Taihe Village? |
Mr.Hu: |
10 I miss many things about Taihe Village. I was a dentist and everyone in Taihe Village knew me well. Now, I'm old and I can only sell medicine to people in the street. In the past, there were many stone and wooden houses around here. Also, there were big trees in the village. The air was very fresh. |
Sandy: |
Did you have noise pollution from cars and trains? |
Mr.Hu: |
15 Yes, but not very serious. |
Sandy: |
I’ve heard that the food stalls were very famous here. Is it true? |
Mr.Hu: |
20 Yes. The food stalls sold very good snacks but they all moved. That's why it was easy to find mice here before. Everyone in the village was used to seeing mice. We weren’t surprised to see mice in the street at night. |
Sandy: |
That's terrible! |
Mr.Hu: |
25 We're glad that it has improved so much but I really miss everything here in the past. Many of my friends moved because the government gave them new flats in new towns. I sometimes feel lonely. Every time I see a chessboard, I think about them. |
Sandy: |
