【题目】Andy never wanted to go to bed on time. His parents had explained to him how important it was to go to bed early and get a good rest. But Andy paid no attention to them, and they didn't know what to do until one weekend when they were visiting Andy's grandparents.

Grandpa Peter heard all about it and said, "This sounds like a job for Tubby." So Andy's parents loaded the cat onto the car and returned home.

That night, at bedtime, the same problem happened. Andy didn't want to go to bed, and even though his parents waited a while to see if Tubby would solve the problem, nothing happened.

Hours later, Andy finally decided to go to bed. But what a surprise when he entered his bedroom! Tubby was in his bed, totally sprawling out, pot-belly in the air, and snoring like an express train.

Andy tried to move the cat, but there was no way of moving him an inch. That night he hardly slept, lying on one tiny corner of his bed.

The next day the same thing happened, even though Andy was much more tired from not having slept well. When the third day arrived, he had understood that if he wanted to sleep in his bed, he would have to get into it before Tubby did. That night, when his parents only started to mention the topic of bedtime, Andy rushed upstairs and dived into bed. His parents could not believe it. They knew nothing about Tubby in the bed, nor did they understand why Andy went to bed on time without complaint. They were so happy about this that they stayed up quite late, celebrating.

【1】By saying "This sounds like a job for Tubby", Grandpa means Tubby________.

A. has the same problem as Andy

B. often stays up late on weekend

C. can help solve Andy's problem

D. always likes playing with small boys

【2】The underlined word "snoring" in the fourth paragraph probably means ________.

A. sleeping B. making noises

C. dreaming D. relaxing

【3】Andy rushed upstairs for sleep because ________.

A. he was afraid Tubby would take up the bed

B. his parents reminded him of the bed time

C. he was much more tired from lacking sleep

D. his parents might punish him for staying up late

【4】The parents' attitude towards Andy's change can be described as ______.

A. curious B. disappointed

C. worried D. Joyful

【题目】The world’s richest man might seem to have it all, but Bill Gates has one regret. The self-made billionaire said he felt stupid for not knowing any foreign languages.

Speaking in his third Ask Me Anything question-and-answer session for online forum Reddit(红迪网), the Microsoft founder said that he wished he spoke French, Arabic or Chinese.

He said: “I took Latin and Greek in high school and got A’s and I guess it helps my vocabulary. I keep hoping to get time to study one of these—probably French because it is the easiest. I did Duolingo for a while but didn’t keep it up.”

Gates, who is worth $79.3 billion, praised Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg for surprising an audience in Beijing when he spoke fluent Chinese. “Mark Zuckerberg amazingly learned Chinese and did a Q&A with Chinese students—unbelievable, isn’t it?” he said.

This isn’t the first time for Gates to admit his regret over language. He also showed his habits at home and personal insights.

Last February, Gates said he likes to do the dishes himself—to his own special standards every night and also told the interviewer that his wife, Melinda, would likely want Samuel L. Jackson to play her husband in a biopic(传记片).

He also admitted that he would pick up a $100 bill if he found it on the street.

As he took the top spot on Forbes(福布斯)28th Annual Billionaires list last year for the fourth time, he said he is pretty basic when it comes to so ending on clothes and food, but that he enjoys investing in shoes and racquets(球拍)when he plays tennis.

When asked a life lesson he had to learn the hard way, the billionaire said staying up too late is a habit he is still trying to break. “Don’t stay up too late even if the book is really exciting. You will regret it in the morning. Pam still working on this problem,” he said.

1Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?

A. An Interview with Bill Gates B. How Bill Gates Succeeded

C. Bill Gates’ Regret D. The Richest Billionaire

2The underlined part in Paragraph 8 may actually mean that_____.

A. it is important to lay a good foundation of life

B. food and clothing are basic needs for people’s life

C. he doesn’t spend much money on food and clothes

D. he never cares about buying food and clothing

3What advice did Bill Gates give?

A. Avoid staying up too late. B. Be a good language learner.

C. Do the dishes yourself at home. D. Pick up the $100 bills in the streets.

4Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A. Bill Gates is also the founder of Facebook

B. Bill Gates topped the list of Forbes 28 times.

C. Bill Gates was good at learning languages in high schoo1.

D. Bill Gates’ wife wants Samuel to play a game with Gates.
