【题目】阅读理解
I want to tell you the story of one of my old friends called Bob,His teachers called him A Troublemaker,They also said that he had no future and no hope. But now he owns a small second -hand bookstore store which makes him enough money to live on and also to support his mother.
He told me that after he finished grade nine, he went to study at a technical college. He was a pretty bad student so he became one of the gang (一帮) leaders there. Many of them got caught many times for fighting.
It looked like nothing could change his life. That was until one sad day when his father died. That changed everything.
After his father died, his mother had to work very hard to make enough money to support the family. He told me that he really pitied his mum after his dad died. He felt that he needed to earn some money rather than let his mum work alone. He loved reading cartoon(卡通)books and had been collecting them for years. As his family was short of money, he decided that he should sell them. He did this by the side of the road where his mother was selling food.
Soon he realized that his books were very popular. So he decided to set up his own business. He started his business by going around buying cartoon books from other people. He bought them for 25% and then sold them for half price. He could make enough money to help support the family.
He was a troublemaker to his teachers but he is a hero to me. If you are judged as a bad student or as someone being stupid, I suggest you pay no attention to what they say. Just do your best in everything. Don't give up so easily. Believe in yourself. If you think that you can do it, then you can. Believe me, one day you could be more successful than those persons who looked down upon you.

【题目】For hundreds of years, people have been wondering about the strange places that they seem to visit in their sleep. 1 However, they have been valued as necessary to a person's health and happiness. Historically people thought dreams contained messages from God. It was only in the twentieth century that people started to study dreams scientifically believing that they tell about a person’s character.2 He believed that dreams allow a person to express fantasies or fears, which would be socially unacceptable in real life.

The second theory to become popular was Carl Jung’s compensation theory Jung, a former student of Freud, said that the purpose of a dream is not to hide something, but rather to communicate it to the dreamer.3 Thus, people who think too highly of themselves may dream about falling; those who think too little of themselves dream of being heroes.

Using more recent research, William Domhoff from the University of California found that dreaming is a mental skill that needs time to develop in humans.4 Until they reach age five, they cannot express very well what their dreams are about. Once people become adults, there is little or no change in their dreams. The dreams of men and women differ. For instance, the characters that appear in the dreams of men are often other men, and often involve physical aggression.

The meaning of dreams continues to be difficult to understand. 5 If you dream that a loved one is going to die, do not panic The dream may have meaning, but it does not mean that your loved one is going to die.

A. Dreams make up for what is lacking in waking life.

B. However, people should not take their dreams as reality.

C. They have been considered as meaningless nighttime journeys.

D. It gives scientists chances to better understand human mind.

E. Children do not dream as much as adults.

F. They think their mind is trying to tell them something.

G. First, there was Sigmund Freud’s theory.

【题目】Neil Gaiman is an English author of lots of science fiction and fantasy works.1His argument is that children shouldn’t be discouraged from reading what adults may think of as bad books. He is dead right.

A child in a library is an explorer venturing into a land where he has no map to guide him. This is part of the excitement. Everything is new.2His taste is yet unformed, and it cannot be formed until he has tried a variety of thing.

Not knowing what books are good or bad, an eager child will try very different things. 3At the age of eleven or twelve, I still read Enid Blyton Stevenson’s Kidnapped, was happily terrified by ghost stories and desperately wanted to be Rupert of Hentzau, a most attractive evil character in literature.

A child reads for enjoyment from all sorts of books. I can’t remember when I stopped reading comics like the Wizard and Hotspur, but I’m pretty sure that my reading of them continued even while I was delighted in Sherlock Holmes or in the short stories of HG Wells.

4 Never say “Don’t read that rubbish” or “You’re too young for that”. If he is really too young and the book is beyond him, he’ll put it aside. If he doesn’t, then he’s not too young, even if he misses much that an adult reader would find in it.

The only useful thing an adult can do is to give a child a book and say, “I think you might enjoy this.” Don’t complain if he doesn’t like it and turns to something that you think is bad. 5

A. Anything he reads may be attractive,too.

B. Everybody has a secret world inside of themselves.

C. For the young reader even a bad book has its own value.

D. Adults should be careful in what they say to a child about his reading.

E. Almost everyone who reads widely as an adult has read wildly as a child.

F. The world always seems brighter when you’ve just made something that wasn’t there before.

G. He is also a productive blogger and the point he gave in one of his blogs surely makes sense.
