    It is men’s nature to live together in families and tribes(部落), and cities and nations, and therefore men have learned to prize those qualities in each other which make social life the happiest and best.
    Of these qualities one of the most important is sympathy－fellow-feeling. If a man had no fellow-feeling, we should call him “inhuman”; he would be no true man. We think so much of this quality that we call a kind man “human”－that is, man-like in his conduct, first to other men, and afterwards to all living things.
    If you are cruel to animals, you are not likely to be kind or thoughtfull to men; and if you are thoughtful towards men, you are not likely to be cruel and thoughtful towards animals. This is why the wise man of old wrote, “The merciful man is merciful to his beast.”
    What a pleasure it is also to be loved by our pets or domestic animals; and to feel that we are caring for them and are deserving of their love; or to watch the ways of wild creatures, and gradually to make friends with them!
    Treating animals kindly does not mean that we must never inflict any pain on them. We ourselves are trained by pains as well as by pleasures; so too, punishment is sometimes needed to train our dogs and horses to obey us. We endure pains at the hands of the surgeon, to cure some wound or to heal some disease; so too, animals must submit to being doctored.
    We send out our bravest men to face wounds, sickness and death, for the good of the nation; so too, we let our horses share the risk of battle. For similar reasons, we cannot hesitate to destroy dangerous creatures like wolves and show senseless ferocity(残忍). It is no excuse to say that these animals deserve to be treated cruelly on account of their own cruelty. They are not really cruel, for they tear and kill not from love of unkindness, but because they must do so in order to live.
    小题1:One of the most important qualities of men is fellow-feeling because      .
    A．you are likely to be cruel and thoughtful without it
    B．a man would be inhuman without it
    C．men can’t bear any pain on themselves and animals
    D．only sympathy makes a man man-like in his conduct
    小题2:The author would probably agree with the following EXCEPT that  　.
    A．we must never force any pain on animals
    B．some people have to kill some animals in order to live
    C．it is human for a doctor to cut off some part from the animals
    D．wise men are not only good to men but also to animals
    小题3:What do you think is the title of the passage?
    A．Loving your pet.B．Fellow-feeling.
    C．Making friends with animals.D．Kindness to animals.
    小题4:Which of the following is inhuman according to the writer?
    A．To treat animals cruelly because they are cruel.
    B．To train animals.
    C．To destroy some of the dangerous animals.
    D．To make animals submit to being doctored.
    小题5:The underlined word “inflict” here means      .
    A．make sb/sth sufferB．forbid
    C．punishD．avoid

    小题1:B
    小题1:A

    Hidden in a small street in the south end of Springfield, not far from buildings torn apart by the tornado（龙卷风） earlier this year, Frigo’s is an Italian restaurant right in our own backyard.
    Frigo’s is not a tiny place. It provides different kinds of Italian food. There are refrigerator cases full of prepared foods and desserts, and shelves filled with olives and various pasta.
    There’s some traditional Italian music and the smell is of olive oil and garlic（大蒜）. Above the largest refrigerator case, there’s a chalk board covered with desriptions of more Italian sandwiches than I could remember.
    I stepped into Frigo’s almost by accident when I had to stay in Springfield into the evening for an open house at the school where I work. Frigo’s is the perfect place to find something quick to go. There are no tables, so all food is taken out. I also thought it would be a great place to pick up some already-prepared food to bring home for dinner.
    I ordered the easiest meal possible: a chicken sandwich and a salad. It cost＄4.75 for the sandwich. The salad was＄4.99 and didn’t have salad dressing on it. I must have missed the choice of salad dressing on the way out. The sandwich was great—great chicken, excellent tomato sauce and not too much cheese.
    I wish I had tried one of the many other sandwiches which include Joe’s Favorite (＄5.25-＄6.75) and the Dante (King) which is made of turkey breast, roasted red peppers, asiago cheese and choice of dressing.
    I have a feeling that I’ll be picking up dinner for me and the kids at Frigo’s soon.
    小题1: Who would be most likely to go to eat at Frigo’s?
    A．People who want to eat quietly in a nice restaurant.
    B．People who want to enjoy home-made food
    C．People who like traditional American food
    D．People who are fond of Italian food
    小题2: Which of the following cannot be seen at Frigo’s?
    A．A chalk board covered with descriptions of sandwiches
    B．Refrigerator cases full of prepared foods and desserts
    C．Shelves filled with olives and different kinds of pasta
    D．Customers eating happily around tables
    小题3:How much did the writer pay for his first meal at Frigo’s?
    A．＄4.75B．＄5.25C．＄9.74D．＄4.99
    小题4:We can infer that “Joe’s Favorite” and “Dante” are the names of        .
    A．sandwichesB．saladsC．cheeseD．peppers
    小题5:We can infer from the passage that the writer         .
    A．seldom eats out in a restaurant with his family
    B．feels very happy that be has found Frigo’s
    C．dislikes eating sandwiches
    D．lives a very relaxing life

    Until recently, I hadn’t done much community service．In face, I did nothing to benefit anyone but myself．My selfishness and laziness were clear before I received an assignment from my teacher．Each student was required to complete 10 hours community service．To me, 10 hours was a huge amount of time to spend helping others．Volunterring, for me, has been a truly life – changing experience．

    For many years there’s been a debate about rewarding our children. Does it work? Is it effective?
    Some people think we should establish a standard with our kids and give them something for meeting this standard as a reward. Punishment is given out in much the same way, but it’s used when certain standards of performance, behavior, etc. have not been met. Kids will often become more dutiful when threatened with punishment, and work harder when promised a valuable reward. The problem is what happens when you aren’t around.
    To develop responsible, self-disciplined kids, parents need to promote certain ideas. One of these ideas is that everyone pitches in and helps in your family. Another idea is that there can be enjoyment in doing any task if we choose to make it so. When a task is for a worthy cause ( our family can enjoy the house more because I helped clean it), this message can have a big impact.
    This is how we help our kids develop a sense of responsibility. When our children develop this responsibility, they’ll be more disciplined, and they’ll control their emotions better. When we give rewards to our kids, we reduce the sense of responsibility. We also create children who may temporarily perform to a certain standard, but who aren’t likely to continue the performance without the carrot hanging in front of them. 
    “Rewards and punishment can change behavior for a while, but they cannot change the person who engages in the behavior,” said Alfie Kohn, author of Punished by Rewards. “Good values have to be grown from the inside out.” Parents can help give their children a sense of shared responsibility and discipline which can last a life time. The real rewards that your children receive will be their readiness for the complex and demanding world that waits for them—a world that rewards those who have learned the secrets of discipline responsibility. So keep those shiny rewarding to yourself, and let your kids find their own rewards.
    小题1:According to the passage, when children are threatened with punishment, ______.
    A．they may lose interest in their work
    B．they may appear to be well-behaved
    C．they may change to another person
    D．the results will be worse than usual
    小题2:What can we know from Paragraph 3?
    A．Parents should promote certain ideas to help children develop.
    B．Children should be responsible for their discipline.
    C．Children should help build a good family atmosphere.
    D．No children will adapt to society without their parents’ help
    小题3: The underlined part “the carrot” in Paragraph 4 probably refers to _____.
    A．rewardsB．aimsC．apologiesD．doubts
    小题4:According to the passage, Alfie Kohn would agree that parents should ______.
    A．never pay attention to the way their children do things
    B．show their children how to behave by example
    C．never punish their children
    D．help their children establish good values
    小题5:What’s the best title for the passage?
    A．Do you often reward your children?
    B．Should parents reward their children?
    C．When should parents reward their children?
    D．What can parents reward their children with?

    Cosmo Books Ltd.,                         14, Woodman Road,
    Hertford Estate,                            Two Bridges,
    Rickmansworth,                            West Sussex.
    Middx.
    25th February
    Dear sir,
    Just over six months ago, I saw an advertisement in the Morning Mail for a set of the complete works of William Shakespeare. Your company, Cosmo books Ltd., offered this set ( eight books of plays and two books of poetry) at what was claimed to be a ‘remarkable’ price: fifteen pounds and fifty pence, including postage and packing. I had wanted a set of Shakespeare’s plays and poems for some time, and these books, in red imitation leather, looked particularly attractive; so I sent for them.
    Two weeks later, the books arrived, together with a set of the complete works of Charles Dickens which I had not ordered. So I returned the Dickens books to you, with a cheque for fifteen pounds and fifty pence for the works of Shakespeare. Two more weeks passed. Then there arrived on my door step a second set of the works of Shakespeare, the same set of novels by Dickens and a six book set of the plays of Moliere, in French. Since I do not read French, these were of no use to me at all. However, I could not afford to post all these books back to you, so I wrote to you at the end of August of last year, instructing you to come and collect all the books that I did not want, and asking you not to send any other books until further notice.
    You did not reply to that letter. Instead you sent me a bill for forty two pounds , and a set of the plays of Schiller, in German. Since then, a new set of books has arrived every two weeks, the works of Goethe, the poems of Milton, the plays of Strindberg; I hardly know what I have. The books are still all in their boxes, in the garage, and my car has to stand in the rain outside.
    I have no room for any more books, and even if I read from now until the Last Judgement, I should not finish reading all the books that you have sent me.
    Please send no more books, send no more bills, send no more angry letters demanding payment. Just send one large lorry and take all the books away, leaving me only with the one set of the complete works of Shakespeare for which I have paid.
    Yours faithfully,
    SIMON WALKER
    小题1:Simon Walker wrote the letter to ________
    A．complain about sending him books he had not ordered.

    D．advise readers not to order books from Cosmo Books Ltd..
    小题2:The advertisement that Mr. Walker saw in the Morning Mail was for ____
    A．unlimited number of Cosmo Books.
    B．a set of 10 books of the works of Shakespeare.
    C．a book containing all the plays and poems of Shakespeare.
    D．fifteen pounds and fifty pence.
    小题3: Mr. walker answered the advertisement because ________
    A．he wanted a set of Shakespeare’s works, and this set was cheap, and looked attractive.
    B．he claimed that the books were being offered at a remarkable price.
    C．he had ordered the set and had been waiting for them to come for some time.
    D．the set he already had was not particularly attractive.
    小题4:Cosmo Books have _______

    C．still not sent Mr. Walker the books that he ordered.

    To all of you at Chinese love links.
    I am 44 years old and never married. I have always wanted to find that perfect someone that I dream about. For about the last five years I have almost given up the hope of ever finding the one I truly wish to spend the rest of my life with.
    I have always tried to be a nice guy. I had found your website some four or five months before. I did not know what to expect. I don’t know how to speak Chinese and never thought truly of how I was to an Asian woman.
    Well, I had a lot of replies from some very nice and pretty women. I had a hard time finding only a couple to write to. But one stood out from the rest. She was cute, nice and seemed to hold a lot of the same values as I do. In a short time I had decided to write only to her. We communicate via e-mails 2-3 times a day and phone calls once or twice a week.
    I went and met her and her family only a week ago. Her name is Yun and she lives in Nanning. I found Nanning to be one of the most beautiful cities I had ever been to. We had even decided to marry and bring her to the USA under the finance visa. Not only did she meet everything I had ever hoped to find in someone else but turned out to be what every woman should be like, at least the ones I have met. We plan to marry as soon as she is here and start a family together as neither of us has children but we both want them.
    So to anyone out there reading this, I can only say this: You may not find what you are looking for if you’re not honest with your partner and yourself. This site worked for me mostly because I was honest with something that I wanted in someone else. When I did find her, love can work even across the other side of the world, between language differences and cultural differences. I wish you all luck in finding your perfect match. I have finally found mine and wish to give all my thanks to those at Chinese love links to help make it happen.
    Sincerely yours,
    Arthur
    小题1:We can infer from the letter that Chinese love links is a website to ____________.
    A．help foreigners to travel in China
    B．help both Chinese and foreigners to find one they want to marry
    C．help Chinese and foreigners make friends

    小题2: Which of the following is true about Arthur’s story?
    A．He was sure of finding a Chinese woman as his wife at first.
    B．He was determined to find a Chinese woman as his wife.
    C．He almost lost hope in finding a perfect wife until he found Yun.
    D．No women wrote to him before Yun.
    小题3: Yun stood out from the rest because ________.
    A．she was a Chinese.
    B．she had much in common with Arthur
    C．other women stopped writing to Arthur

    The emperor penguin is the tallest and heaviest of all living penguin species and lives in Antarctica. The male and female are similar in size, reaching 122 cm in height and weighing anywhere from 22 to 45 kg. The back and head are black, contrasting sharply with the pale-yellow breast and bright-yellow ears. Like all penguins, it is flightless, with a streamlined body and their wings stiffen and flatten into flippers(鳍状肢) for a marine habitat.
    Its diet consists primarily of fish, but can also include animals with hard shells. In hunting, the species can remain underwater up to 18 minutes, diving to a depth of 535 m. Its unusually structured hemoglobin(血红蛋白)allows it to function at low oxygen levels.
    The emperor penguin is perhaps best known for the journeys adults make each year in order to mate and to feed their babies. The only penguin species that breeds(繁殖) during the Antarctic winter, it goes on a long journey of 50-120 km over the ice to breeding areas which may include thousands of individuals. The female lays a single egg, which is incubated(孵化)by the male while the female returns to the sea to feed; parents take turns searching for food at sea and caring for their chick. They both care for the chick until it is able to enter the water to find food on its own. During the process of incubation, the male can lose up to 1/3 to 1/2 of his body weight. One of the coolest things about the male is that if the chick comes out its egg before the female returns, the male can actually produce a special liquid to feed the chick. He can only do this for a short time. If the female doesn’t return, he must leave the chick to go on with his own life. The emperor penguin can typically live for 20 years in the wild, although observations suggest that some individual may live to 50 years of age.
    小题1:We can learn from paragraph 1 that ____.
    A．the emperor penguin is the world’s largest kind of penguin
    B．the emperor penguin has pale-yellow ears
    C．the male and female emperor penguins are of different sizes
    D．the emperor penguin lives in the most northern area on the Earth
