On a Sunday morning, I was driving down a road and saw something I couldn’t believe. A little girl, less than two, was pushing her stroller (婴儿车) across the road. It was Sunday morning and traffic was not heavy.

I stopped my car at once and ran toward her. This little girl knew enough to run from a stranger. I tried to catch her in order that I could get her out of the road.

Suddenly her father came running down a hill across the road from where I had parked my car. He ran right to her and caught her up, saying “bad girl” to her. I picked up the stroller and gave it to him. The father grabbed the stroller and walked toward where he came from without a word.

I went back and sat in my car for a few minutes with my son. My hands were shaking and tears were about to run out of my eyes. “Do you feel cold, Mom?” asked my son. I just shook my head.

After this happened, I thought about how thankful I am. Even though the father didn’t say thank you, I feel that I did something good. Doing something for someone else is pleasing, even when it’s only a matter of being in the right place at the right time.

I didn’t really “save” her, but I feel like it was important that I happened to be there. It is sad that I was the only one who stopped. It really made me a little disappointed that no one else stopped to help.

1.When the author saw the little girl, ________.

2.The little girl ran away from the author because ________.

A. she wanted to stay on the road

B. she didn’t know the author at all

C. she wanted to look for her father

D. she needed to catch her stroller

3.The author thought that her help was ________.

A. really necessaryB. worth praising

C. not welcomeD. not useful

4.What can we learn from the passage?

A. The girl’s father didn’t like the girl at all.

B. The girl’s father had wanted to thank the author.

C. The author shared her experience with her son.

D. The author felt sad that no one else helped the girl.

Many schools across the US hold graduation ceremonies this time of year. In some schools, even 5 and 6-year-olds observe their graduation from kindergarten. And so can older people, much older. Meet 70-year-old Jerry Reid, who just graduated from the University of Virginia in Charlottesville. He earned a bachelor’s degree.

Mr. Reid might not look like the average college student; his hair is definitely grayer. But still Jerry Reid’s age is easy to forget, other UVA students know him as one of their own.

Mr. Reid sat into the “Hoo Crew,” a group that cheers loudly for the school at sports events. He also joined a men's group on campus. He sang drinking songs along with many other students. Mr. Reid’s school friends say they can talk to him just about anything.

About a half century ago, in his 20s, Mr. Reid was not in school. Instead, he was racing cars and chasing girls. But he says his friend Bill invited him to UVA parties.

“Bill told me what a terrible life I had unless I came up here and went to school with him,” said Reid.

That was in 1963. Jerry Reid says it took him 48 years to take that advice. In 2011, he entered college. UVA Professor Luke Wright says Mr. Reid influences students. He opened the minds of the young adults. The teacher says Mr. Reid showed them that life does not end at 40. Instead, the 70-year-old college graduate believes that getting older can be the beginning of a dream.

“Remember that path that you left waits for you. It’s there. It’s yours. All you must do is to get out of your own way and get back to it. And, that's exactly what I did,” said Reid.

Mr. Reid says that he and his wife Susan now would take some time off to enjoy his college degree. Then, he’ll return to UVA to begin studying for his graduate degree.

1.Which of the following is true of Mr. Reid?

A. He was laughed at by other students.

B. He was interested in study in his youth.

C. He enlarged the views of young people.

D. He got his graduate degree in 2011.

2.From the third paragraph, we can infer that Mr. Reid was _________.

A. considerateB. independentC. intelligentD. energetic

3.What does Paragraph 6 mainly discuss?

A. How Mr. Reid realizes his dream.

B. What teachers think of Mr. Reid.

C. When Mr. Reid entered college.

D. Why the students likes Mr. Reid.

4.What lesson can we learn from the story of Jerry Reid?

A. It is never too late to learn.

B. Two heads are better than one.

C. Actions speak louder than words.

D. A friend in need is a friend indeed.

The Internet can be a great way to connect with people. The latest web craze is social networking on websites such as MySpace. More than 65 million young people use online social networking sites.

That cyberspace(网络空间) trend is causing problems in school, however. In a recent survey, nearly 36 percent of school administrators said that social networking sites troubled learning in their districts. Should school districts ban sites like MySpace?

Teachers are worried that some students use social networking to post personal information and to cyber bully(恐吓) other students. One of the biggest dangers comes from people who find out kid’s personal information.

Many districts have blocked students from accessing or using social networking sites from school computers, and some have suspended(暂缓) students for posting harmful material on those sites from their home computers. Nearly two-thirds of US kids have computers in their homes, according to the US Census Bureau.

“It is important to keep in mind that just blocking access to social web sites at school is not the end of the story,” warns NSBA executive director Anne Bryant, “Most of the misuse of these sites takes place at home but still affects the classroom.”

Some educators aren’t as quick to pull the plug on social networking. They say the main problem with sites like MySpace is that students don’t understand the dangers involved in using them. “Many students are posting personal information about themselves without regard to who has access to that information,” Jim Hirsch said, “Schools should focus on educating their students and their parents on how to be safe online.”

Experts argue that too many schools are forbidding students to use social networking web sites without thinking about their educational benefits. “Social networking web sites can help connect students in the United States to their peers in other countries, providing invaluable lessons in foreign cultures,” explains Hirsch.

1.Where do students usually misuse social networking sites?

A. At the teacher’s office.

B. At the net bar.

C. At the classroom.

D. At home.

2.The underlined sentence in Paragraph 6 may mean ________.

A. some educators are in favor of students’ using social networking sites

B. some educators can’t block students from accessing social networking sites

C. some educators can’t connect social networking sites easily

D. some educators find it difficult to close social networking sites

3.Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A. The Internet can’t be a good bridge to get along well with students.

B. There are some students threatening other students by using social networking.

C. Most of the misuse of these social web sites takes place at school and affects the home.

D. Too many schools allow students to use social networking sites without Question.

4.What might be the most suitable title for the passage?

A. Lessons Online?B. Friendship Online?

C. Dangers Online?D. Information Online?

How to Say No to Your Boss

Saying “no” to a request can be a difficult thing, especially when the person making the request is your boss. 1. The following steps are helpful.

1. Give yourself some time to think about the request before saying “no”.

If the request arrives via email, don’t reply right away. 2. If your boss asks you in person or on the telephone, request some time to give it thought and tell her you will get back to her by a specific time. Consider the request carefully to determine whether you have to say “no”.

2. Prepare your answer before telling your boss “no”.

Anticipate questions she might ask in response to your answer, and decide how you want to answer them. Rehearse your conversation with your boss out loud to help build your confidence before the real conversation.

3. Choose the right time and place to speak with your boss.

Have the conversation in private if your work situation allows you to get a moment alone with your boss. Keep in mind your boss’s workday pressures and work style. If she is a morning person and gets grumpy(脾气暴躁的)in the afternoon, be sure to speak with her before lunch.

4. 3.

If your boss is asking you to take on more responsibility, that shows that she has faith in your ability to do the job. Acknowledge that it means a lot to you before telling her that you feel you cannot do it.

5. Tell your boss why you have to say “no” to the request.

4. Your boss will be grateful that you answered honestly, rather than trying to take on a project you cannot handle.

6. Offer an alternative solution.

For example, if your boss asks you to serve on a committee, suggest someone else in the company that you think may be interested and capable of serving. 5.

A. Pay your boss a compliment while denying her request.

B. Even if you try your best to do everything the boss lets you do, there are times when you can’t do and have to say “no”.

C. Put yourself in your boss’s shoes and consider how the company will be affected if you refuse the request.

D. Maybe you could offer to share the workload with someone else.

E. Most employers respect honesty in their employees.

F. Try a compromise.

G. Set the request aside and think about it for a while.

In the depths of the French Guianese rainforest, there still remain unusual groups of indigenous(土著的) people. Surprisingly, these people live largely by their own laws and their own social customs. And yet, people in this area are in fact French citizens because it has been a colony(殖民地) of the French Republic since 1946. In theory, they should live by the French law is often ignored or unknown, thus making them into an interesting area of “lawlessness” in the world.

The lives of these people have finally been recorded thanks to the effects of a Frenchman from Paris called Gin. Gin spent five months in early 2015 exploring the most remote corners of this area, which sits on the edge of the Amazon rainforest, with half its population of only 250,000 living in its capital, Cayenne.

“I have a special love for the French Guianese people. I have worked there on and off for almost ten years,” says Gin. “I’ve been able to keep firm friendships with them. Thus I have been allowed to gain access to their living environment. I don’t see it as a lawless land. But rather I see it as an area of freedom.”

“I wanted to show the audience a photographic record touching upon the uncivilized life,” continues Gin. “I prefer to work in black and white, which allows me to show different specific worlds more clearly.”

His black-and-white pictures present a world almost lost in time. These pictures show people seemingly pushed into a world that they were unprepared for. These local citizens now have to balance their traditional self-supporting hunting lifestyle with the lifestyle offered by the modern French Republic, which brings with it not only necessary state welfare, but also alcoholism, betrayal and even suicide.

1.Why does the author feel surprised about the indigenous people in French Guiana?

A. They seldom follow the French law.

B. They often ignore the Guianese law.

C. They are separated from the modern world.

D. They are both Guianese and French citizens.

2.Gin introduces the special world of the indigenous Guianese as _________.

A. a tour guideB. a geographer

C. a film directorD. a photographer

3.What is Gin’s attitude towards the lives of the indigenous Guianese?

A. Cautious.B. Doubtful.

C. Uninterested.D. Appreciative.

4.What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to?

A. The modern French lifestyle. B. The self-supporting hunting.

C. The uncivilized world. D. The French Republic.
