Most people have heard of Shakespeare and probably know something of the plays that he wrote. However,not everybody knows much about the life of this remarkable man,except perhaps that he was born in the market town of Stratford upon Avon and that he married a woman called Anne Hathaway. We know nothing of his school life. We do not know,for example,how long it lasted,but we presume that he attended the local grammar school,where the principal subject taught was Latin.

According to a local legend,he was beaten and even put in prison for stealing rabbits and deer from the estate of a neighboring landowner,Sir Thomas Lucy. It is said that because of this he was forced to run away from his native place. A different legend says that he was apprenticed to a Stratford butcher,but did not like the life and for this reason decided to leave Stratford.
Whatever caused him to leave the town of his birth,the world can be grateful that he did so. What is certain is that he set his foot on the road to fame when he arrived in London.

In order to increase their job chances after college, Chinese students are turning to a special practice—Eiffel Tower nose jobs (鼻整形手术). The latest trend in plastic surgery promises to create a nose that is similar to the curve of the Eiffel Tower.
Surgeon Wang Xuming said: “We are influenced by the beauty of the Eiffel Tower. We are not content to just add something to the nose; we reconstruct it.” The surgery costs about US$ 10,000 and involves the enlarging of the nose using tissue from the forehead.
Hundreds of posters advertising the procedure are put up all over Chongqing city, where surgeon Xuming runs his private practice. They show a western-looking woman with an almost-to o-perfect nose, against an outline of the Eiffel Tower.
Interestingly, many young women in China are eager to achieve a western appearance, as they believe it will give them an advantage in the highly competitive job market. “Some students face a lot of employment pressure after graduation. If their facial features are good, they'll have more chances of finding a job,” said surgeon Xuming. “We've had students getting the Eiffel Tower nose; it's helped them a lot.”
Apparently, Chinese employers are quite particular about appearances and prefer attractive candidates. Some of them even go as far as putting height and weight requirements in their employment ads. Plastic surgeons across the country are reporting an increase in the number of students choosing beauty “improvement”.
According to a Mr. Li, hospital manager at surgeon Xuming's clinic, most of their customers are female and the bill is taken care of by the family. “They usually come in with their mothers, and tend to be from well-off backgrounds.” he said.
Personally, I don't think it so important to “improve” our appearance as long as we are skilled at our jobs. We can't decide how we look, but we can decide how well we live and work.
(1)Why do Chinese college students choose to have a nose operation?
A.To have more chances of getting a job.
B.To gain a real westerner appearance.
C.To Take good care of their family.
D.To look like the Eiffel Tower.
(2)What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 3?
A.The city of Chongqing.
B.A plastic surgery procedure.
C.The posters advertising the surgery.
D.Xuming's private practice.
(3)What can we learn from Mr. Li's words?
A.Most families can't afford the expensive operation.
B.Their customers are usually from wealthy families.
C.Patients can be well looked after at the clinic.
D.The number of plastic surgeons is increasing.
(4)Which of the following will the author probably agree with?
A.Chinese employers only care about their employees' appearance.
B.Chinese students are content with the shape of their noses.
C.A western face looks prettier than a Chinese one.
D.Skills at work speak louder than appearance.

I have been a member of our local Community Youth Club for four years. So far I have took part in a lot of interested projects including activities such as holiday camps and discos.

My parents were in a huge argument, and I was really upset about it. I didn't know who I should talk with about how I was feeling. So I asked Mom to allow me to stay the night at my best friend's house. Though I knew I wouldn't tell her about my parents’ situation, I was looking forward to getting out of the house. I was in the middle of packing up my things when suddenly the power went out in the neighborhood. Mom came to tell me that I should stay with my grandpa until the power came back on.
I was really disappointed because I felt that we did not have much to talk about. But I knew he would be frightened alone in the dark. I went to his room and told him that I'd stay with him until the power was restored. He was quite happy and said, “Great opportunity.”
“What is it?” I asked.
“To talk, you and I” he said. “To hold a private little meeting about what we’re going to do with your mom and dad, and what we're going to do with ourselves now that we're in the situation we are in.”
“But we can't do anything about it. Grandpa,” I said, surprised that here was someone with whom I could share my feelings and someone who was in the same “boat” as I was.
And that's how the most unbelievable friendship between my grandfather and me started. Sitting in the dark, we talked about our feelings and fears of life — from how fast things change to how they sometimes don't change fast enough. That night, because the power went out, I found a new friend, with whom I could safely talk about all my fears and pains, whatever they may be. Suddenly, the lights all came back on. “Well,” he said, “I guess that means you'll want to go now. I really like our talk. I hope the power will go out every few nights!”
【1】I wished to get out of the house because __________.
A. I was eager to have fun with my best friend
B. I found nobody to share my feelings with
C. I wanted to escape from the dark house
D. I planned to tell my friend about my trouble
【2】Grandpa was happy to see me because __________.
A. he could discuss the problem with me
B. he had not seen me for a long lime
C. he was afraid of darkness
D. he felt quite lonely
【3】What can be inferred from the passage?
A. The grandchild was eager to leave.
B. They would have more chats.
C. The lights would go out again.

As we all know, we can meet with various challenges in our life. Faced with challenges, how should we do?
Last month, our class climbed Mount Tai, that is more than 1,500 meters above sea level. Lacking exercise, I thought that this activity was great challenge for me. I felt very exhausted halfway that I wanted to give up. See this, my classmates and even some strangers encourage me. By the end, I managed to reach on the top of the mountain.
Therefore, don’t give up in face of challenges. If you are determined enough, it’s certainly that you can overcome it.
