    Tattoos and body piercings（穿孔）have moved up on the trend list in recent years. Around Western schools lots of teens are sporting new holes and “flesh ink”（纹身）. As with all other subjects, the Chinese will surely have to deal with this situation with respect to their children. To get a better view of what has happened in the West, 1et’s sit down and hear what they say.
    Tiara from Indiana： 
    I personally think body piercing is sickening. If there were supposed to be holes in your body，you would have been born with them. I do，however，think that ear piercing is not wrong. There is a difference between ear piercing and belly button piercing. Ear piercing is not nearly as dangerous. I would be sick if someone stuck a needle in my belly button.
    Lee from Illinois:
    Hi! I live in Illinois. I am 23. I have 12 tattoos and three piercings. I love my tattoos and consider myself an art collector. You would be surprised at who has given me the thumbs up on my art work. People on the street stop me to look at the tattoo on my leg. Most of them don’t know what it is. They just think the work itself is great.
    Subotai from California:
    I’m not forbidden of self-expression，but when I see high school students getting these piercings, I really wonder. In some cases, the drive is deeper and darker than mere fashion. A friend of mine tried piercing her own tongue with a safety pin. It got infected and she had a tongue the size of a cow’s.
    Jackson from Ohio:
    I don’t think it is wrong, but when people do it all over the place like their face and everything—I think that’s ridiculous. People who get the big “dragons that cover the whole body—I don’t think that’s necessary.” When I see naked chicks on guys, I think, “You have no respect for women.”

    Many crimes and social problems are caused by children. Despite the damage these teenage criminals cause, parents are not responsible in most countries. This article will discuss whether parents should be forced to pay for their children’s crimes.
    There are many reasons why parents should not be responsible for crimes committed by teenage children. First of all, teenagers today are independent. They often move out of the parents’ house at 18 years of age or younger. They are expected to learn to take care of themselves and make their own decisions, and not to stay like small children attached to their parents. Secondly, parents are working. They cannot watch their adolescent children all the time. A third point is that even children from good families can sometimes commit crimes. Parents should not be responsible if they have worked hard to raise their children properly.
    However, young troublemakers cause many problems, and I feel we should make parents responsible. Firstly, most juvenile（未成年的）crimes are committed by adolescents whose parents do not care or make any effort to control their children. If parents had to pay fines（罚款）, they might make more effort. Another point is that even though the children may seem mature, they are not really able to make good decisions. Parents should be responsible for raising and teaching their children until they are fully grown. Furthermore, if children know that their parents will have to pay, they will think carefully before getting into trouble.
    In summary, there are good reasons both for and against making parents pay for acts committed by their children. However, I feel strongly that if we want to reduce the number of such crimes, we need to make parents take more responsibility.
    小题1:Those who insist that parents should not be responsible for their children’s crimes believe that ________.
    a. teenagers are able to deal with things on their own
    b. children need to experience difficulties to be fully grown
    c. it’s impossible for parents to be with their children all the time
    d. parents are not to blame as long as they try their best to educate their children
    A．a, c, dB．a, b, cC．b, c, dD．a, b, d
    小题2:According to Paragraph 3, the main reason for children’s crimes is ________.
    A．unstable social environmentB．parents’ carelessness
    C．bad family relationshipD．heavy financial burden
    小题3:The author thinks that making parents pay for their children’s crimes is ________.
    A．uselessB．easyC．necessaryD．impractical
    小题4:What can be the best title for the passage?
    A．Proper ways to educate childrenB．Reasons for children’s crimes
    C．Should children move out?D．Should parents pay?

    Pets are popular. They’re good listeners, they encourage us to exercise, and they’re always on our side when we argue with others. They can bring people comfort and pleasure.
    But it is important to keep in mind that pets can carry diseases that can make you sick. Washing your hands often — especially after you touch, feed, or clean up a pet — is the best way to keep yourself healthy and prevent the spread of disease. Be sure to clean your fingernails carefully every time you wash.
    You also can protect your health by wearing gloves while cleaning animal cages or cat litter boxes. Avoid washing your pet in the bathtub(浴缸), but if you do, always disinfect(消毒) the tub immediately afterward.
    Be sure to bring your pet to the hospital for examinations every two weeks or month and whenever your pet is sick or injured.
    You can do a few other things to keep yourself and your pet healthy. Only give your pet food that has been planned ahead for them. It’s not a good idea to share your food with your pet. Human food (like chocolate) can make animals sick. Never feed your pet raw(生的) meat because it can carry germs(细菌) that cause serious illness.
    And funny as it can be to see your dog or cat drinking from the toilet, don’t let pets do this. It’s bad for your pet’s health! Give them clean, fresh water to drink at all times.
    Never give milk to cats. The only milk an animal should drink is from its mother. Cow’s milk is not for pets, especially for cats, as it makes them sick.
    Finally, some animals aren’t pets. Don’t take in a wild or abandoned(被抛弃的) animal as a pet because it may have diseases that could make you or your family sick. Instead, turn to an animal rescue group that is trained in helping sick or abandoned animals.
    小题1:The first paragraph mainly tells us that pets can ______.
    A．be great friendsB．bring us pleasure
    C．help us keep healthyD．do harm to us
    小题2:To keep healthy, the author may be against ______.
    A．washing your fingernails after touching your pet
    B．wearing gloves when cleaning your pet’s cage
    C．washing your pet in the bathtub
    D．bringing your pet for examinations regularly
    小题3:The underlined word “it” in Para.7 refers to ______.
    A．the cowB．the mother catC．cow’s milkD．mother cat’s milk
    小题4:Which is the RIGHT way to feed your pet?
    A．Sharing your chocolate with your dog.
    B．Letting your dog drink from the toilet.
    C．Feeding your little cat with raw meat.
    D．Giving your cat cooked fish.
    小题5:According to the text, when you meet an abandoned dog, you should ______.
    A．call an animal rescue groupB．bring it back to your home
    C．give it first aid（急救）in timeD．help to find its owner

    Celebrity(名人) has become one of the most important representatives of popular culture. Fans used to be crazy about a specific film, but now the public tends to base its consumption(消费) on the interest of celebrity attached to any given product. Besides, fashion magazines have almost abandoned the practice of putting models on the cover because they don’t sell nearly as well as famous faces. As a result, celebrities have realized their unbelievably powerful market potential, moving from advertising for others’ products to developing their own.
    Celebrity clothing lines aren’t a completely new phenomenon, but in the past they were typically aimed at the ordinary consumers, and limited to a few TV actresses. Today  they’re started by first-class stars whose products enjoy equal fame with some world top brands. The most successful start-ups have been those by celebrities with specific personal style. As celebrities become more and more experienced at the market, they expand their production scale rapidly, covering almost all the products of daily life.
    However, for every success story, there’s a related warning tale of a celebrity who overvalued his consumer appeal. No matter how famous the product’s origin is, if it fails to impress consumers with its own qualities it begins to resemble an exercise in self-promotional marketing. And once the initial(最初的) attention dies down, consumer interest might fade, loyalty(忠诚) returning to tried-and-true labels.
    Today, celebrities face even more severe embarrassment. The pop-cultural circle might be bigger than ever, but its rate of turnover has speeded up as well. Each misstep threatens to reduce a celebrity’s shelf life, and the same newspaper or magazine that once brought him fame has no problem picking him to pieces when the opportunity appears. Still, the ego’s(自我的) potential for expansion is limitless. Having already achieved great wealth and public recognition, many celebrities see fashion as the next frontier to be conquered. As the saying goes, success and failure always go hand in hand. Their success as designers might last only a short time, but fashion—like celebrity—has always been temporary.
    小题1:Fashion magazines today         .
    A．seldom put models on the cover
    B．no longer put models on the cover
    C．need not worry about celebrities’ market potential
    D．judge the market potential of every celebrity correctly
    小题2:A change in the consumer market can be found today that         .
    A．price rather than brand name is more concerned
    B．producers prefer models to celebrities for advertisements
    C．producers prefer TV actresses to film stars for advertisements
    D．quality rather than the outside of products is more concerned
    小题3:The underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 indicates that any wrong step will possibly         .
    A．decrease the popularity of a celebrity and the sales of his products
    B．damage the image of a celebrity in the eyes of the general public
    C．cut short the artistic career of a celebrity in show business
    D．influence the price of a celebrity’s products
    小题4:The passage is mainly about         .
    A．celebrity and personal styleB．celebrity and market potential
    C．celebrity and fashion designD．celebrity and clothing industry

    First Lady Michelle Obama is a big fan of volunteering. Volunteering means working for free to help someone else. Mrs. Obama says volunteering is very important. “It should be part of everyone’s life, ” she says.
    Many teens agree. They say that helping others feels great and makes a difference. These days, more teens volunteer than work for pay. Teens clean up parks, walk dogs at animal shelters , visit the elderly and more.
    Some cities ---- including Seatle, Chicago, and Washingtong,D.C. ----require high school students to volunteer. Students must volunteer in order to graduate. The student volunteers learn new skills and help their communities (社区).
    Many parents are in favor of the idea ---- they say volunteering helps teens build job skills. But most teens don’t want to be forced to volunteer. They say they are busy. And they say volunteering is only fun if it’s a choice.
    Read both sides of the debate (辩论) and decide.
    YES
    ● Volunteering can help teens get into college or get a job.
    ● Many cities and towns need help. Volunteers can help keep important programs going.
    ● Not all teens will volunteer if it isn’t required. Schools should repuire students to do all they can to get ready for adult life.
    NO
    ● Most teens are already very busy with classes, homework, jobs and sports. Forcing them to do more isn’t fair.
    ● It should be up to each person. Helping out doesn’t feel as good if you have to do it.
    ● Finding a volunteer job isn’t always easy. Students shouldn’t be kept from graduating because of something they can’t control.

    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 Judgment, 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．urge for the final solution to the problem with the unwanted books.

    A．he claimed that the books were being offered at a remarkable price.
    B．he wanted a set of Shakespeare’s works which was a good bargain
    C．he had ordered the set and had been waiting for them to come for some time.
