【题目】Today the word friendship has been used so often that it has lost its meaning. Some jokingly or seriously say that friends made to be used. It makes me very sad.
True friendship doesn’t mean that when you need your friend’s help, you will treat him to dinner, and when you have to protect yourself, you will put your friends in a difficult situation.
In fact, true friendship is the communication and understanding of the hearts(心).
True friendship is like water. Compared with decent wine, water is tasteless, but is of great help when we are thirsty. True friends don’t need to be with each other every day, but are connected in heart every minute.
True friendship is like medicine. Though it is bitter, it cures your illness. True friends give you some suggestions even if they know you would not take. They criticize you when others have a good word for you, not because of envy but worrying that you may lose your cool head.
True friendship has nothing to do with fame, power or money. True friends would often watch you silently far away when you are influential, but come to you whenever you need their help. You’re not his stepping-stone to success, but are his crutch(拐杖;支持物) to live through difficulties.
True friends make you complete. Many persons go along with you through your life─your parents, your spouse(配偶), and your children, who take care of you and make your life happy. However, you still need someone who understands your thoughts and souls. Without them, you are likely to be unhealthy in spirit.
True friends stay in your heart, rather than at your side; they know you more than yourself, and try to better you.

A. don’t treasure friendship

A cab company in one of Japan's major cities is introducing silent taxi drivers. Miyako Taxi, which is based in Kyoto, shows the new idea in March. The business is currently operating five “Silence Taxis” across the city.
The cars look like any ordinary taxi,but a notice written on the back of the passenger seat inform passengers that they have entered one of the new silent fleet. Drivers will offer a greeting when their passenger enters the car, and aside from confirming the route they will not engage in small talk. The drivers can indulge in conversation, only if they are spoken to first, and they are also allowed to communicate in emergency situations.
Announcing the idea, Miyako Taxi said: “This service is currently in a trial stage, with the goal of creating an in-car atmosphere that provides the most comfortable ride for passengers through limiting the driver's speaking.” According to Japan Today, they made the move after hearing reports from passengers that they were fed up being forced to chat with their drivers.
The company will assess the popularity of the trial before deciding whether to expand it and roll it out across more of their drivers.
Language and speaking is at the heart of another issue facing Uber drivers, after lost a High Court Battle to block written tests in London. Drivers applying for a minicab license in the capital will now have to pass the written exam following Uber's failed challenge against Transport for London (TfL). The company argued it could see up to 33,000 existing drivers lose their licences under the new rule.
The company's London head, Tom Elvidge: vowed to challenge the rule and said, “We've always supported spoken English skills, but writing an essay has nothing to do with communicating with passengers or getting them safely from A to B.”
(1)According to the passage, the “Silent taxis” .
A.has gained wide popularity in Japan.
B.has not operated yet.

D.the fare is free if we say nothing during the driving.
(3)What is the purpose of the “Silent Taxis” according to the passage?
A.Creating a more comfortable atmosphere in the taxi for passengers.

C.Attracting more passengers to take taxis.

【题目】阅读理解
It was a hot day, and my brother Walt and I had decided that the only way to survive it would be to go swimming in a deep swimming hole across Mr. Blickez's Pasture(牧场)and through some woods.
The only problem with our plan was that this pasture was guarded by a huge, mean Hereford bull(公牛). Mr. Blickez had told us that Elsie was the meanest bull in the town, maybe even in the county, and we believed him. But the hotter it got, the more we thought there was something fishy about his words. For one thing, we remembered Mr. Blickez liked telling tall tales; for another, Elsie seemed like a strange name for a bull.
Finally, I talked Mom into asking permission for us to walk through the pasture, but then another problem surfaced. Mom said she would talk to Mr. Blickez if we would take our cousin Joanie along with us. Joanie was almost two years older than me and a head taller. If her teasing ever got around my grade school, it would be all over for me. In fact, I still had a headache from a quarrel with her that morning. “I'm not going swimming with that silly girl cousin,” I told my mom.
“Either Joanie goes with, or you stay home alone,” Mom said in her serious tone(语气). I gave in and we set out. On your way across the pasture, Walt yelled suddenly. Elsie had approached him quietly and was licking(舔)his back. Joanie and I dove under the wire fence, but while I was on the ground I looked up and saw that Elsie wasn't a big mean bull after all. She was going to keep licking my brother's back as long as he stood still.
We had many good days growing up and visiting our secret swimming hole guarded by the so-called “big mean bull”. And as it turned out, for a girl cousin, Joanie hasn't been too bad. She's been one of my best friends over the years.
(1)What's the meaning of the underlined word “fishy” in Paragraph 2?
A.Funny.
B.Interesting.
C.Doubtful.
D.Believable.
(2)What's the second problem the author had to face?
A.His mother failed to ask permission for him.
B.His mother insisted on his cousin going with him.
C.He quarreled with his cousin and had a headache.
D.His cousin made jokes on him in his grade school.
(3)We can learn from the passage that Elsie .
A.was his owner's favorite bull
B.was aggressive because of her nature
C.disliked to play with little children
D.was actually friendly to people
(4)What's the passage mainly about?
A.The bull guarding Mr. Blickez's farm.
B.The story of visiting the swimming hole.
C.How friendly the so-called “big mean bull” was.
D.How the author changed his attitude to Joanie.

At 27, after serving in World War II, I dreamed of owning a piece of land. So I moved from central Illinois to Shelbina, Missouri, and bought 236 acres for $6,000. The land was situated on a dirt road and was half farmland and half trees, with an old house that had no running water or electricity. Obviously, it was not what you'd call a perfect farm. But it was mine.
I was alone for the first time in my life, and I found it liberating. My days were filled from dawn until dusk with plowing and planting corn. Dinnertime came and went, and I barely remembered to eat.
I wouldn't say I was a great success at farming in Missouri. However, when I went to the store to buy some tools, I met a nice woman named Claudette working behind the counter. I also ran into her at St. Mary's Catholic Church in Shelbina each week. I found out later that her manager kept asking her about “that tall boy from Illinois living out in the country in an old house with no water, no electricity and no housekeeper.”
Claudette and her sister soon visited my farm and put up some curtains. To show my appreciation, I took Claudette out for a ride in my truck. We married in 1954 and have now been together for more than 62 years!
I later sold the Missouri farm for a $3,500 profit and bought 40 acres in Illinois. For many reasons, buying the Missouri farm was a good idea. I will always cherish memories of owning the farm and meeting my beloved.
(1)Why did the writer buy the Missouri farm?
A.To marry a nice girl.
B.To live a liberating life.
C.To have his own land.
D.To earn more profit.
(2)What was Claudette when the writer met her?
A.A manager.
B.A storekeeper.
C.A housekeeper.
D.A shop assistant.
(3)What can we learn about the Missouri farm?
A.It was well furnished.
B.It led to a happy marriage.
C.It was 40 acres.
D.It made a successful farmer.

【题目】阅读理解
In the fall of 1959, Freed suffered a bad reputation for rumors of bribery (贿赂行为), and his troubles were too strong to be resisted. When WABC asked Freed to sign a statement swearing that he had never taken bribes, he refused and was fired. Although he later signed such a statement for WNEW-TV, he lost his television show as well.
Finding himself unwelcome in New York, Freed fled to the West Coast, where he managed to land a daytime disc jockey (流行音乐播音员) job at KDAY in Los Angeles in 1960. Legal problems continued to bother him, though, and he was charged with taking bribes of more than $30,000 from a number of record companies. Publicly, Freed denied that he had ever accepted direct bribes, although he acknowledged that he had accepted gifts from record companies, but only for playing records that he was certain would become hits anyway. After a short time at KDAY, he left when the station management refused to let him promote his live rock ‘n' roll shows. He returned to New York, but not as a broadcaster. At the height of the great enthusiasm for the twist dance, he hosted a Manhattan twist revue (时事讽刺剧), but when this enthusiasm cooled, he found a disc jockey job at WQAM in Miami in 1962. During this difficult period, Freed began drinking heavily and lost his job in Miami after only two months. In December of 1962 he was found guilty in New York of two charges of commercial bribery and was given a six-month sentence and fined $300. This effectively ended his career.
Freed spent the last years of his life in Palm Springs, California. Although he had redefined what it meant to be a disc jockey and named the music that had become an anthem (圣歌) for the world's youth, he was a disgraced (耻辱的) and broken man, no longer able to work in the business he loved. On January 20, 1965, he died in a hospital in Palm Springs.
(1)Why was Freed fired by WABC?
A.Because he took bribes.
B.Because he swore he didn't take bribes.
C.Because he refused to admit taking bribes.
D.Because he refused to make a statement as WABC required.
(2)According to Freed, he accepted the gifts from record companies only when _______.
A.the gifts were not valuable
B.the gifts had no connection with playing records
C.the records he was asked to play were very famous
D.the records he was asked to play would surely become popular
(3)What can we learn from the passage?
A.Freed didn't take bribes at all.
B.Freed showed no talent for music.
C.Freed had made contributions in his career.
D.KDAY fired Freed because of his addiction to alcohol.

【题目】I was first introduced to Puppies Behind Bars (PBB) when I watched a special on Animal Planet. This non-profit organization is the brainchild of Gloria Gilbert Stoga, a kind-hearted woman from New York PBB is a program in which specially-selected prisoners from prisons are trained in the preparation of puppies to become service dogs for the handicapped(残疾人), or police dogs to serve police forces.
My wife and I were so moved when we watched the program. It is a win-win situation at all points. First, it makes a prisoner, who may never have the chance to be released, go back to the community by joining in this program and offering every minute of every day working, loving, and training a puppy for future service. It is difficult for them, but they realize the importance of this program. In addition, most of them have the chance ( for the first time in their lives) to experience warm love through an animal.
Second, the program saves tens of thousands of dollars that it would cost to train these dogs through traditional ways. All donations to the program are used to buy dog food, training supplies, and veterinary care.
Finally, our society benefits from service dogs which can protect people from danger, search and rescue humans after a serious disaster, or become the lifeline for a handicapped person. The last of these goes far beyond the fact that dogs can open.
Fridges, answer the phone or do a dozen other daily tasks. They give a sense of freedom back to a person who has had it taken away by illness, accident, or warfare.
Because of this we have given a lot of monetary support of this meaningful program.
【1】What does the underlined word "brainchild" in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Founder.
B. Idea.
C. Pain.
D. Wealth.
【2】In Puppies Behind Bars we can find dogs that_______.
A. are being trained for the government
B. will be adopted by prisoners
C. will serve the disabled and police
D. can play games with children
【3】The donations of this program will _______.
A. be for policemen and prisoners
B. be spent on things for dogs
C. be used to train dogs in traditional ways
D. be handed out to the disabled
【4】What is the author's purpose of writing the text?
A. To ask people to support the police.
B. To indicate the significance of PBB.
C. To call on people to care for dogs.
D. To praise Gloria and her workmates.
