    If you live in the United States, the law says you can’t have a full-time job until you are 16 years old. At 14 or 15, you can work part-time after school or on weekends, and during summer you can work 40 hours each week. Does all that mean that if you are younger than 14, you can’t earn (赚) your own money? Of course not! Kids who are between the ages of 10 and 13 can earn money by doing lots of things.
    Valerie, 11, told us that she made money by cleaning up other people’s yards. Lena, 13, makes money by knitting (织) dog sweaters and selling them to her neighbors, and Reisa said she had started taking art classes and showing her work to people. People have asked her to draw pictures for them and they pay her for them. Jasmine, 13, writes articles for different magazines!
    Earning is learning. By working to earn your own money, you are learning the skills you will need to succeed in life. These skills can include things like getting along with others, using technology (技术) and using your time. Some people think that asking for money is a lot easier than earning it; however, when you make your own money, you don’t have to depend on someone else. The five dollars that you earn will probably make you feel a lot better in your hand than the twenty dollars you ask for.

    A. 17              B. 14               C. 13             D. 10

    试题分析：如果你生活在美国，法律直到你16岁规定你才能有一个全职工作。在14或15，你可以课后或周末兼职的工作，并在夏季可以每周工作40小时。这意味着，如果你超过14岁，你不能赚得自己的钱？当然不。孩子们的年龄在10和13之间可以做的事情，赚许多钱。同时列举了几个孩子的挣钱过程，通过打工挣自己的钱，你正在学习的技巧，你需要成功的生活。这些技能可以包括与他人相处，使用技术（技术）和使用你的时间。有些人认为要求资金比赚钱更容易；但是，当你把自己的钱，你不需要依赖别人。你赚的五美元可能会让你感觉在你的手有二十美元。
    小题1:细节理解题。分析：美国的孩子们多在时能正式找工作？原文：If you live in the United States, the law says you can’t have a full-time job until you are 16 years old.句意：如果你生活在美国，法律规定直到你16岁才能有一个全职工作。选项中的年龄只有17岁符合。故选 A。
    小题2:细节理解题。问题：如果你是十五岁，你在什么时间不能去工作？原文：At 14 or 15, you can work part-time after school or on weekends, and during summer you can work 40 hours each week.句意：在14或15，你可以课后或周末兼职的工作，并在夏季可以每周工作40小时。分析也表明在上学期间不可，只能在业余时间可以进行工作。故选D。
    小题3:细节理解题。问题：Reisa以什么方式挣到钱了？原文：Reisa said she had started taking art classes and showing her work to people. People have asked her to draw pictures for them and they pay her for them.句意：Reisa说她开始以艺术类和展示她的工作给人们。人们让她为他们画画并且为此付钱。所以说是为别人画画来挣钱。故选 B。
    小题4:细节理解题。分析问题，通过阅读短文下面的描述，哪句是错误的。了解四句话中只有第四选项是不正确的，从短文中体现了当学会如何挣钱也就更会与他人友好相处。故选D。
    小题5:细节理解题。分析通过这个短文，我们知道了什么？在结束阅读中我们知道如果孩子们学会挣钱也就学会了技术。故选C。

    Last August, Joe and Mary Mahoney began looking at colleges for their 17-year-old daughter, Maureen. With a checklist of criteria (衡量标准，尺度) in hand, the Dallas family looked around the country visiting half a dozen schools. They looked for a university that offered the teenager’s intended major (主修科目), one located near a large city, and a campus (大学校园) where their daughter would be safe.
    “The safety issue (问题) is a big one,” says Joe Mahoney, who quickly discovered he wasn’t alone in his worries. On campus tours other parents voiced similar concerns (担心), and the same question was always  asked: What about crime? But when college officials al ways gave the same answer---“That’s not a problem here.” ---Mahoney began to feel uneasy.
    “No crime whatsoever?” comments (评论) Mahoney today. “I just don’t buy it.” Nor should he: In 1999 the U.S . Department of Education had reports of nearly 400,000 serious crimes on or around our campuses. “Parents need to understand that times have changed since they went to college,” says David Nichols, author of Creating a Safe Campus. “Campus crime mirrors the rest of the nation.”
    But getting accurate information isn’t easy. Colleges must report crime statistics (统计数字)  by law, but some hold back for fear of bad publicity (名声), leaving the honest ones looking dangerous. “The truth may not always be serious,” warns S. Daniel Carter of Security on Campus, Inc., the nation’s leading campus safety watchdog (监视) group.
    To help concerned parents, Carter promised to visit campuses and talk to experts around the country to find out major crime issues and effective solutions.
    小题1:The Mahoneys visited quite a few colleges last August_________.
    A．to express the opinions of many parents
    B．to choose a right one for their daughter
    C．to check the cost of college education
    D．to find a right one near a large city
    小题2:It is often difficult to get correct information on campus crime because some colleges_________.
    A．receive too many visitors
    B．mirror the rest of the nation
    C．hide the truth of campus crime
    D．have too many watchdog groups
    小题3:The underlined word “buy” in the third paragraph means “_________”.
    A．mindB．takeC．believeD．expect
    小题4:What is the text mainly about?
    A．Exact campus crime statistics.
    B．Crimes on or around campuses.
    C．Effective solutions to campus crime.
    D．Concerns about kids’ campus safety.

    请阅读短文，掌握其大意，然后根据短文内容从下面方框中的七个选项中选出五个还原到短文中，使短文意思通顺、结构完整。（每小题2分）
    Newspapers are not nearly as popular today as they were in the past.   小题1:  Most people read only the sports pages, the advice or the gossip（闲话，绯闻）columns, the comics, and perhaps the classified advertisements.
    Most people don't take the time to read the real news.     小题2:  These techniques（技术，手段）are used on the front page because it is the first thing you see when you pick up the paper. The first page attracts attention and encourages the reader to look through the rest of the paper.     小题3:    If the headline is horrible（恐惧的）enough or frightening enough or wild enough, perhaps they will go on to read the front page anymore. They may read the headlines, but that is all, then they turn to the sports page, or comics, or advertisements. It seems that people do not want the news from a newspaper anymore.   小题4:  
    More people watch television news because it is easier and more interesting than reading a newspaper. What about you? Do you read news from a newspaper?  小题5:  Or do you care about news at all? Would you mind if there were no news?

    America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real，yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two，perhaps a few letters for a while— then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance，even years later，they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand，because friendships between us develop more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings，extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.
    Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes，share their holidays，and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily.
    Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives，they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes，we，as hosts，will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans，however，express their welcome usually at homes，but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes，the welcome will be full，warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.
    For the Americans，it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants，except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!
    小题1:Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?　　
    A．Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their families.
    B．Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.　　
    C．Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy.　　
    D．Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.
    小题2: From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friend，we will probably be ______.
    A．warmly welcomed at the airport
    B．offered a ride to his home
    C．treated hospitably at his home
    D．treated to dinner in a restaurant
    小题3:The underlined words “generous with our time” in Paragraph 3 probably mean ______.
    A．strict with time　　　B．willing to spend time　　
    C．careful with timeD．serious with time
    小题4:A suitable title for this passage would probably be “______”.
    A．Friendships between Chinese
    B．Friendships between Americans　　
    C．Americans’hospitality
    D．Americans’and Chinese’s views of friendships
