　　Most people think of racing when they see greyhounds(灰狗) and believe they need lots of exercise．They can actually be quite lazy! Greyhounds are good at fast races but not long－distance running．They do need regular exercise but they like to run for a short burst and then get back on the bed or a comfortable seat．Another misunderstanding is that greyhounds must be aggressive(好斗的) because they are big in size．In fact greyhounds love people and are gentle with children．

　　Greyhounds can live for 12－14 years but usually only race for two or three years, and after that they make great pets．They don’t need a lot of space, don’t make a lot of noise, and don’t eat a lot for their size．

　　Normally, greyhounds can be as tall as 90 cm．There is, however, a small－sized greyhound, which stands only 33 cm．Greyhounds come in a variety of colors．Grey and yellowish－brown are the most common．Others include black, white, blue, red and brown or a mix of these．

　　Greyhounds have smooth body coats, low body fat and are very healthy．Because they’re slim(苗条的)they don’t have the leg problems like other dogs the same height．But they do feel the cold．Especially since they would much rather be at home in bed than walking around outside．

(1)

The text is written mainly ________．
[　　]
A．	to tell people how to raise greyhounds
B．	to let people know more about greyhounds
C．	to explain why greyhounds are aggressive
D．	to describe greyhounds of different colors

(2)

[　　]
A．	love big doghouses
B．	like staying in bed all day
C．	make the best guard dogs．
D．	need some exercise outdoors

(3)

Why does the author say that greyhounds make great pets?
[　　]
A．	They are big in size．
B．	They live a very long life．
C．	They can run races for some time．
D．	They are quiet and easy to look after．

(4)

If you keep a pet greyhound, it is important ________．
[　　]
A．	to keep it slim
B．	to keep it warm
C．	to take special care of its legs

A Giant Leap for China

　　A few days ago, he was just Colonel(上校)Yang; few people knew his name or recognized his face．But last Thursday, when he came back to the earth after a 21-hour trip to space, Yang Liwei’s smile was seen across the world above the magic words：“China’s first spaceman”．

　　The 38-year-old astronaut was sent into space at 9 a. m．Last Wednesday by China’s Shenzhou Ⅴ spacecraft, which orbited the earth 14 times．He landed safely at 6∶23 a. m．The next day, making China the third country successfully send a person into space, after the former Soviet Union and the US．

　　Yang was satisfied with his job．“I have seen many landing scenes before on video, and I think ours was one of the most successful, ”He said on a special plane to Beijing after landing．Born into an ordinary family in Liaoning Province, he became a pilot in the Chinese Air Force in 1987, spending 1350 hours in the air．He joined the Chinese space programme 11 years later．

　　While in space, Yang recorded everything he saw as well as showing China’s national flag and the United Nations’ flag to the people watching on TV at home．He also ate a meal of diced chicken and fried rice, before taking a 3-hour nap．The whole project went according to plan, but space exploration is not as easy as it seems．

　　Anyone who saw the destruction of the US space shuttle Columbia in February this year will know that Yang took a great risk．

　　He experienced extremely high temperatures, while the gravitation(重力)on take-off and landing were strong enough to force tears from his eyes．

　　He has spent five years training to become a spaceman．

　　“I eat all of my meals at the space programme’s dinning room and have never been able to take my son to kindergarten, ”he said．“I’ve never met his teachers．”

　　But becoming China’s first spaceman has made all the effort worthwhile．

　　“When I boarded the spacecraft for the first time, I couldn’t help feeling excited,” he said．“I decided that I had to fly it．”

　　To Chinese people, Yang is now a hero．One visitor to a Xinhua news agency online forum(网上论坛)said, “Yang’s trip is a giant leap forward for China．”

　　Officials say the next Shenzhou will be launched by 2005．China also plans to develop spacewalking and a space lab．

(1)

What is the main idea of the story?

B．	1.5 hours．
C．	6 hours．
D．	The story didn’t mention it．

(3)

A．	Because it was the most dangerous part of the space flight．
B．	Because it was a very special experience．
C．	To stress how much training he had to do to prepare for the flight．
D．	To show that Yang is brave．

(4)

Why did the writer use “giant leap” in the title?
[　　]
A．	Because the space flight marked China’s great progress in the field of space exploration．
B．	Because Neil Armstrong said it was a “giant leap” for mankind when he first set foot on the moon．
C．	Because the space flight was a huge success．

　　A few days ago I asked my son's governess(女家庭教师)Julia to come into my study．“Be seated, Julia,”I said, “Let's settle our accounts．I guess you most likely need some money, but maybe you're too polite to mention it．Now then, we agreed on thirty dollars a month…”

　　“Forty．”

　　“No, thirty．I made a note of it．I always pay our governess thirty．Well, um, you've been here two months, so…”

　　“Two months and five days．”

　　“Exactly two months．I made a special note of it．That means you have sixty dollars coming to you．Take off nine Sundays…you know you didn't work with Tom on Sundays, you only took walks．And three holidays…”Julia was biting her finger nail nervously, her face red, but－not a word．

　　“Three holidays, therefore take off twelve dollars．Four days Tom was sick and there were no lessons, as you were occupied(从事)only with Dick．Three days you had a toothache and my wife gave you permission not to work after lunch．Twelve and seven-nineteen．Take nineteen off…that leaves…hmm…forty one dollars．Correct?”

　　Julia's left eye reddened with tears welling up．Her chin trembled; she coughed nervously and blew her nose, but－still not a word．

　　“Around New Year's Day you broke a teacup and a saucer; take off two dollars．The cup cost more, it was a treasure of the family, but － forget it．When didn't I take a loss! Then, due to your neglect(疏忽), Tom climbed a tree and tore his jacket; take away ten．Also due to your carelessness the maid stole Dick's shoes．You ought to watch everything! You get paid for it．So, that means five more dollars off．The tenth of January I gave ten dollars．”

　　“You didn't．” sobbed Julia．

　　“But I made a note of it．”

　　“Well…if you say so．”

　　“Take twenty seven from forty one－that leaves fourteen．”

　　Both her eyes were filled with tears．Beads of sweat stood on the thin pretty little nose．Poor girl!

　　“Only once was I given any money,” she whispered, her voice trembling, “and that was by your wife．Three dollars, nothing more．”

　　“Really? You see now, and I didn't know that! Take three from fourteen－that leaves eleven．Here's your money, my dear．Three, three, three, one and one．Here it is!”

　　I handed her eleven dollars．She took them and pocketed them．

　　“Merci(法语：谢谢),”she whispered．

　　I jumped to my feet and started pacing the room．I was overcome with anger．“For what, this ‘merci'?” I asked．

　　“For the money．”

　　“But you know I've cheated you－robbed you! I have actually stolen from you! Why this ‘merci'?”

　　“In my other places they didn't give me anything at all．”

　　“They didn't give you anything? No wonder! I played a little joke on you, a cruel lesson, just to teach you．．．I m going to give you all the eighty dollars! Here they are in the envelope all ready for you．．．Is it really possible to be so spineless(懦弱)?Why didn't you protest? Why were you silent? Is it possible in this world to be without teeth and claws(爪)－to be such a fool?”

　　Embarrassed, she smiled．And I could read her expression, “It is possible．”

　　I asked her pardon for the cruel lesson and, to her great surprise, gave her the eighty dollars．She murmured her little “merci” several times and went out．I looked after her and thought, “How easy it is to crush(压榨)the weak in this world !”

(1)

What shocked the writer was Julia's ________．
[　　]
A．	nervousness in front of her boss
B．	acceptance of injustice(不公平)
C．	shyness when talking about money
D．	unwilling to express herself

[　　]

B．	to be more careful in her work
C．	to protect her right
