【题目】 I was walking along a busy road when I noticed a young man standing near the crossing selling toys. Usually I would hurry past such sellers. But I found this young man was blind, I wanted to see how he sold his things. So I stood for some time without crossing the street.

Soon, a young mother with a little girl came by and the child set her eyes on one of the teddy bears. The mother asked about the price and it was only one dollar. She pulled out a 10-dollar note from her handbag and told the young man that she was giving him 10 dollars and wanted the change back. I was wondering how he was going to do it. He told the young mother to put the money in the bag hanging around his neck and take out her change.

I realized that this young man depended on believing people not to cheat him. There was no way for him to know how someone would take out more than they should have. I was so moved. I bought a model car from him that I didn't need. As I walked down the street, I gave the model car to a kid walking with his father.

I kept thinking that the world would be a better place if we could all learn to trust (信任) others more, like the young blind street seller.

【题目】 There used to be many beautiful flowers in our garden. Among them was a beautiful blue flower. My husband once told me that it only bloomed(开花) in spring and the sun in summer was too hot for it. When summer came, he would move it out of the garden and put it inside our house.

Once, my husband was away for some time on business, so I had to take care of the flowers. Before leaving, he told me to pay special attention to the blue flower. I planned to look after it as my husband had ever done, but I was too busy to remember it. One weekend when I wanted to move the blue flower into the house, I found that it had already died. I was very sad and regretted not taking good care of it earlier.

A week ago, my husband's elder sister, Linda, died of a serious stomach illness. Linda was much older than my husband. Maybe because of the age gap(差距), we were not very close. After she died, we were very sad and regretted not visiting her often.

Linda's death reminds me of the blue flower. We should have done something better, but we haven't tried our best. I believe that God has given us enough time to plant some wonderful things that will bloom inside us, but we have missed it.

1When might the writer's husband be away on business?

A.In spring.B.In summer.C.In autumn.D.In winter.

2Why didn't the writer take good care of the blue flower?

A.Because she didn't like the flower.

B.Because she was too busy to remember the flower.

C.Because her husband didn't ask her to do that.

D.Because she didn't know how to take care of the flower.

3What does the writer want to tell us?

A.Don't be too careless when you plant flowers.B.Don't forget the elder sister Linda's death.

C.Try our best to love what we have now.D.Try to be better to ourselves.

【题目】Choose the best answer(根据短文内容,选择最恰当的答案)

Unless we spend money to spot(认出,发现) and prevent asteroids(小行星)now, one might crash into Earth and destroy life as we know it, say some scientists.

Asteroids are bigger versions of the meteoroids(流星体) that race across the night sky. Most orbit the sun far from Earth and don’t threaten us. But there are also thousands of asteroids whose orbits put them on a collision course with Earth.

Buy $500 million worth of new telescopes right now, they spend $10 million a year for the next 25 years to locate most of the space rocks. By the time we spot a fatal one, the scientists say, we’ll have a way to change its course.

Is it worth it Two things experts consider when judging any risk are: 1 How likely the event is; 2 How bad the consequences if the event occurs. Experts think an asteroid big enough to destroy lots of life might strike Earth once every 500,000 years. Sounds pretty rare but if one did fall. It would be the end of the world. “If we don’t take care of these big asteroids, they’ll take care of us,” says one scientist. “It’s that simple. ”

The cure, though, might be worse than the disease. Do we really want fleets(队,车队) of nuclear weapons sitting around on Earth “The world has less fear from doomsday rocks than from a great nuclear fleet set against them.” said a New York Times article.

1What does the passage say about asteroids and meteoroids

A.They are heavenly bodies different in composition.B.They are heavenly bodies similar in nature.

C.There are more asteroids than meteoroids.D.Asteroids are more mysterious than meteoroids.

2What do scientists say about the collision, of an asteroid with Earth

A.It is very unlikely but the danger exists.

B.Such a collision might occur once every 25 years.

C.Collisions of smaller asteroids with Earth occur more often than expected.

D.It’s still too early to say whether such a collision might occur.

3What do people think of the suggestion of using nuclear weapons to alter the course of asteroids

A.It sounds practical but it may not solve the problem.

B.It may create more problems than it might solve.

C.It is a waste of money because a collision of asteroids with Earth is very unlikely.

D.Further research should be done before it is proved applicable.

4We can conclude from the passage that

A.while pushing asteroids off course nuclear weapons would destroy the world.

B.asteroids racing across the night sky are likely to hit Earth in the near future.

C.the worry about asteroids can be left to future generations since it is unlikely to happen in our lifetime.

D.workable solutions still have to be found to prevent a collision of asteroids with Earth.

5Which of the following best describes the author’s tone in this passage

A.Optimistic.B.Critical.C.Objective.D.Arbitrary(武断的)

6The best title for the passage is __________.

A.How will the world endB.Asteroids and meteoroids in the sky.

C.Nuclear weapons on Earth.D.What if asteroids crash into Earth
