    Everyone knows how the story of Cinderella does everything from sweeping the floor to cooking the meals before she meets the prince. If someone asked Cinderella, “Are there any kinds of household work that you particularly hate?” She probably would answer , “Why , none , of course. Housework is my duty!” In the real world, however, most people have certain dislikes for some kinds of household work. Two of these tasks are ironing（熨）clothes and washing dishes.

    Ironing clothes is most hated because it is not a task that can be completed quickly or thoughtlessly. Each piece of clothing must be handled（处理）separately, so ironing a basket of them can take hours! If you do not follow directions carefully, it might become wrinkled and you have to start over. Perhaps that is why ironing is not a favorite thing to do. It calls for extreme attention to detail from beginning to end.

    Another household job that many people dislike is washing dishes. Of course, some people claim that this work is no longer a problem because , we have dishwashers now! However, no one would argue that dishes, silverware, and especially pots and pans washed in a dishwasher don’t come out as clean as they do when washed by hand. For this reason, many of us continue to wash our dishes. And it is a job that not only takes a lot of energy but also requires the patience to wash and dry them. In addition, unlike ironing clothes, washing dishes is a thing that usually must be done every day. I don’t know how Cinderella felt about this particular task, but I believe that most people hate it as much as I do.

    1.For Cinderella, doing household work is __________.

    A. what she hates to do

    B. what she is responsible for

    C. what she loves to do

    D. what she is content with

    2. Most people hate to do clothes-ironing because _________.

    A. it takes a lot of time

    B. it has to be done by one person

    C. it must be handled skillfully

    D. it needs careful planning

    3. Many people still prefer washing dishes by hand to machine washing because _________.

    A. hand washed dishes are cleaner

    B. dishwashers are not so easily handled

    C. some dishes cannot be washed by machine

    D. washing dishes by hand is cheaper

    4.Ironing is different from washing dishes in that _________.

    A. it requires patience

    B. it is not a daily housework

    C. it is not tiring

    D. it needs less care

    根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有多余选项。

    It is said that there are about 40,000 different kinds of jobs in the world. 1.

    “Finding a job” is not the same as “choosing a job”. Many young people end up in a job which they are not suitable for. 2. Here are a few steps to help you think about jobs which you might enjoy doing after school or university.

    First, it is important to realize what kind of person you are, which special qualities make you different from everyone else and what you are interested in. 3. If you like art and enjoy looking at pictures, that is an interest. But if you can draw a horse that looks like a horse instead of a big dog, that is a skill.

    Then ask yourself this question: in the following three areas ― skills with people, skills with information and skills with things ― which are your best skills?

    After examining your skills, the next step is research. To find out as many different kinds of jobs as possible, go to the library and read books, magazines and newspapers. 4.

    Finally, trust your own ideas and your own thinking! 5.

    A. It is your own life, so find something that you enjoy doing.

    B. Choosing the right one itself is a difficult job.

    C. We must know what our ideal jobs are.

    D. There is a difference between an interest and a skill.

    E. Ask your friends about the work they do.

    F. “Chance” may play a more important part than “decision”.

    G. Your parents may also give you some useful advice.

    Last year, I met a little boy to whom my heart went out. He would talk to me every single day, and always seemed to have a smile on his face. His problem was that he stuttered (口吃) extremely badly when he tried to talk. It was really hard to understand what he was saying, although he loved to tell big tales!

    One morning, I was talking to the teachers who ran the school store. The boy stopped by and said hello to all of us. Afterwards they told me that the boy would stop every day to ask if they would be there the next day. But of course, he never had money to buy anything.

    I decided that I would get him a little something just as a surprise. So I picked out a pencil, a rubber, and a small notebook for just $1.00. I cannot describe the look on his face when I gave him the three little things. Then, without a stutter, he loudly said, "Thank you so much!" and just kept repeating, "Thank you! Thank you!" He gave me a big hug before going off to class.

    I was touched to see someone appreciate something that much. As he walked off, he was showing his new stuff to other kids walking to class. I have to say that I have never spent a dollar that would me an so much to me.

    1.Why did the boy never buy anything from the store?

    A. Because he couldn’t make himself understood.

    B. Because the teachers were unwilling to sell him anything.

    C. Because he couldn’t afford anything.

    D. Because he could never decide what to buy.

    2.What do we learn from the third paragraph?

    A. Actually the boy had no stutter at all.

    B. The boy was too excited to stutter at the moment.

    C. What the author had bought helped the boy speak normally.

    D. The author wanted to find out whether the boy really had a stutter.

    3.Which would be the best title for the passage?

    A. A Stuttering Boy

    B. Kindness Can Do Wonders

    C. One Dollar Can Buy Anything

    D. The Best Dollar I Have Spent
