    Paula and Rory have fives kids, three dogs, and a rabbit. When the house is very noisy, Megan, one of the children, is quietly inventing. A year ago, the 10-year-old had to design an anti-smoking poster, she came up with the idea of creating something that shows the average amount of tar(尼古丁) a smoker collects from just four packs of cigarettes.
    “I like people to play with things more than read and write,” she says. So she researched her idea on the Internet, found a company in China that could make it, saved up her pocket money and got her idea made.
    Paula says her daughter “think differently”: Ideas jump into her mind. After she got sunburnt on holiday, Megan invented a small plastic bracelet(手镯) that changes colors in the sun, telling you when to put on sunscreen(防晒霜). Several sunscreen companies have expressed an interest in the idea. She also came up with an idea to make a ball filled with water to stop the dog from feeling thirsty. “But we didn’t do anything with it,” says Paula.
    Then she pulls out a picture of a special fishing rod(钓鱼竿) she had designed. “There is a camera on the hook(钩),” she explains, “and the screen is on the handle, and it shows if you’ve caught a fish or not.”
    Megan doesn’t want to go to university. She keeps her pink-and -cream bedroom tidy. Paula is amazed and a bit confused by her daughter. “Everything has to be in a certain order,” Paula says. “Her brothers and sisters go with the flow, but with Megan, it’s ‘What time will that be happening?’ or ‘Where am I being picked up from today?’”

    A．is not willing to go to schoolB．likes to play with her brothers and sisters
    C．prefers making something by herselfD．is good at reading and writing

    D．The bracelet telling when to put on sunscreen
    小题3: The underlined phrase “go with the flow” probably means “            .”
    A．do what the most people usually doB．follow the fashion closely
    C．set an example to othersD．do something differently from others

    You must know the “ding dong ditch”. Person A rings Person B’s doorbell, and then quickly runs away or hides before Person B answers. Person B hurries to answer the door, only to find that no one’s there. After the  1 thing is repeated several times, this is called “ding dong ditch”.

    Sharon believes it happened that way thanks to an angel.

    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

    Too many people want to be their friends, but they don’t give friendship back. That is why some friendship doesn’t last long. To have a friend, you must learn to be one. You must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest; be generous; be understanding.
    Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you do not tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you haven’t been honest, you may lose friend’s trust. Good friends always count on one another to speak and act honestly.
    Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You do not have to give your lunch money or your clothes. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feeling. These can be very valuable to a friend. They tell your friend what is important to you. By sharing them, you help your friend know better.
    Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and helping with a problem. Something may go wrong at school. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friend’s place so you can understand the problem better.
    No two friendships are ever exactly alike. But all true friendships have three things in common. If you plan to keep your friends, you must practice honesty, generosity, and understanding.
    小题1:Some friendships don’t last very long because ________.
    A．there are too many people who want to make friends.
    B．some people receive friendship but don’t give friendship back.
    C．those who give others friendship receive friendship from others.
    D．they don’t know friendship is something serious.

    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．
    My mom suggested that I organize a food drive（募捐活动）in our development（新建筑宅区）and donate what I collected to a local shelter．Anything that would help finish the project seemed like a good idea, so I agreed．I made up flyers（传单）asking for donations and placed flyers at every house in my neighborhood．
    I was getting ready to fetch the cans from my neighbor’s yards on the day of the food drive when all of a sudden it started to pour．Rain flooded the roads and wind blew hard, but I was determined to complete my task．My mom drove me around our development and I jumped out at every house to collect items people had put out．
    When we finally arrived the shelter, I was a little nervous because I had never been there before．The woman in charge was extremely grateful for the donations and said that the world would be ganizing the food drive and delighted that my service to the community would make a difference in people’s lives．
    As I was leaving the shelter, a man asked if I was the one who had brought all the food．I shyly nodded, and he said, “A round here, you are a hero．” From that point on, I made myself a promise that I would serve the community more often, even when it was not required．Through this school assignment, I have realized that caring for others is an important part of living and the world would be a completely different place if people all help those who are less fortunate．

    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 ________
