Of course, she wasn’t really my aunt and, out of fear, I never called her that to her face. I only referred to her as “My Aunt Fannie” because the name always made my father laugh quietly and gave my mother cause to look strictly at both of us—at me for being disrespectful of my elder and at my father for encouraging my bad behavior. I enjoyed both reactions so I looked for every opportunity to work the name into as many conversations as possible.
As a young woman, my mother had worked in the kitchen of a large Victorian farmhouse. During those years my mother helped Aunt Fanny make the best blueberry jam (蓝莓酱) ever tasted by anyone in Glenfield. She was well-known for her jam and for never sharing the recipe with others. Even though my mother knew the recipe by heart, as long as Aunt Fannie was alive, she never made the jam without Aunt Fannie in our kitchen to direct the process and preserve the secret.
Each August, my mother would prepare me for Aunt Fannie’s visit. One year, after I had helped with the jam process Aunt Fannie gave me a coin and then made me promise that I would never spend it. “Hold onto this coin,” she said, “and someday you will be rich. I still have my very first coin, given to me by my grandmother.” So I kept the coin in a small box and waited to become rich.
I now have the blueberry jam recipe and the coin from Aunt Fannie. In people’s eyes Aunt Fannie's success resulted from that secret recipe. But to me, it was just a common recipe. Neither have significantly made me become a rich person, but I keep them as reminders to hold onto the valuable things in life. Money can make you feel rich for a while, but it is the relationships and the memories of time spent with friends and family that truly leave you wealthy. And that is a fortune that anyone can build.
1.Why did the author always use the name “My Aunt Fannie” in conversations?
A. She was frightened of Aunt Fannie.
B. She liked Aunt Fannie’s recipe.
C. She enjoyed her parents’ reactions.
D. She greatly respected “Aunt Fannie”.
2.The underlined word “she” in Paragraph 2 refers to ______.
A. Aunt Fannie
B. the author’s grandmother
C. the author’s mother
D. Aunt Fannie’s grandmother
3.In the last paragraph, the author encourages readers to______.
A. hold onto the first coin in life
B. make as many friends as possible
C. make money with their own hands
D. spend more time with family and friends
4.What could be the best title for this passage?
A. The Key to Success
B. Blueberry Jam Recipe
C. A Fortune Built from a Coin
D. A Relationship of Trust

When times get tough, we all look for ways to cut back. When we’re hungry, we eat at home instead of going out. We take buses instead of taxis. And we wear our old designer jeans just a few months longer. With college expenses at all-time highs, high school students are eager to do anything to cut the cost of a university education.
One cost-cutting proposal is to allow college students to get a bachelor’s degree in three years instead of four. Educational institutions have been actively exploring ways to make the learning process more efficient. But there’s a question: Would the quality of undergraduate education suffer? Few US universities have formally approved a “three-year degree” model.
I doubt that mainstream North American colleges will carry out a three-year curriculum any time soon. For one thing, most universities already allow highly qualified students to graduate early by testing out of certain classes and obtaining a number of college credits. In addition, at famous universities, the committee who determine which courses are required and which courses are electives are unlikely to suddenly “throw out” one quarter of the required credits. Professors will resist “diluting(稀释)”the quality of the education they offer.
In my opinion, a quality four-year education is always superior to a quality three-year education. A college education requires sufficient time for a student to become skilled in their major and do coursework in fields outside their major. It is not a good idea to water down education, any more than it’s not a good idea to water down medicine. If we want to help students find their way through university, we should help them understand early on what knowledge and skills they need to have upon graduation. We should allow students to test out of as many courses as possible. We should give them a chance to earn money as interns(实习生)in meaningful part-time jobs that relate to their university studies, such as the five-year co-op program at Northeastern University.
1.Which of the following can be the best title?
A. It’s time to shorten the learning process
B. Best learning takes place over time
C. University education should be watered down
D. College education calls for reform
2.In most US universities, ________ .
A. some excellent students can graduate ahead of time
B. college students are offered the co-op program
C. electives’ credits make up one quarter of the required credits
D. all students are required to finish four-year education before graduation
3.We can infer that ________ .
A. the author is a college professor
B. the author considers the university education quality very important
C. the author thinks the cost of a university education is too high for people to afford
D. the author pays special attention to the all-round development of college students
4.The first paragraph serves as a(n) ________ .
A. explanation B. Definition C. Comment D. introduction

Almost every machine with moving parts has wheels, yet no one knows exactly when the first wheel was invented or what it was used for. We do know, however, that they existed over 5,500 years ago in ancient Asia.
The oldest known transport wheel was discovered in 2002 in Slovenia. It is over 5,100 years old. Evidence suggests that wheels for transport didn't become popular for a while, though. This could be because animals did a perfectly good job of carrying farming tools and humans around.
But it could also be because of a difficult situation. While wheels need to roll on smooth surfaces（光滑表面）, roads with smooth surfaces weren't going to be built until there was plenty of demand for them. Finally, road surfaces did become smoother, but this difficult situation appeared again a few centuries later. There had been no important changes in wheel and vehicle design before the arrival of moden road design.
In the mid-1700s, a Frenchman came up with a new design of road—a base layer (层) of large stones covered with a thin layer of smaller stones. A Scotsman improved on this design in the 1820s and a strong, lasting road surface became a reality. At around the same lime, metal hubs (the central part of a wheel) came into being, followed by the pneumatic tyre(充气轮胎) in 1846. Alloy(合金) wheels were invented in 1967, sixty years after the appearance of tarmacked roads (柏油路). As wheel design took off, vehicles got faster and faster.
1. What might explain why transport wheels didn't become popular for some time?
A. Few knew how to use transport wheels.
B. Humans carried farming tools just as well.
C. Animals were a good means of transport.
D. The existence（存在）of transport wheels was not known.
2.How is the last paragraph mainly developed?
A. By giving examples.
B. By making comparisons.
C. By giving discussion
D. By making classifications.(分类)
3.What is the passage mainly about?
A. The beginning of road design.
B. The development of transport wheels.
C. The history of public transport.
D. His invention of fast-moving vehicles.

I have a neighbour we call Happy. I have never seen her angry at anything and never heard her say a harsh(难听的) word to anyone or about anyone.
Happy and her husband Ben, 70, have a huge garden. They spent many happy hours together working on it. Most of the neighbours watched interestingly as Ben doubled the size of their garden. As the cost of food climbed faster than Ben's beans, we all wished we also had such a large garden. As the rest of us spent our dollars at the market, Happy could be seen picking beans in her backyard.
Last month, Happy and Ben invited most of the neighbourhood over for an “all?day food fest”. We were told to bring gloves and arrive very early in the morning. We didn't know what was about to take place.
By 9：00 am, there were nine of us in the garden picking tomatoes, beans, okra and squash. By 10：00 am, there was lots of laughter. We shared a lot of stories. By 5：00 pm, everyone was a little drunk from the wine and beer. After dinner, we played games. As we were leaving, Happy and Ben handed each of us a shopping bag filled with the bounty(大量给予之物) of the day, already packaged and frozen. What a delightful gift!
Well, the point wasn't so much about the food. The true gift was a day of friends enjoying one another's company. None of it would have happened if it had not been for Happy and Ben's garden. Now they have a blog about gardening in case we decide to plant a garden. And I am so proud of my tomato plants!
1. We can infer that Happy and her husband Ben________．
A. are a generous and warm?hearted couple

A. they didn't have to spend so much money on food
B. they could grow vegetables and sell them at the market
C. they could invite their neighbours and hold parties in it
D. they could spend happy hours together with their families in it
3. For what purpose did Happy and Ben invite the neighbours to their garden?
A. To ask them to attend a birthday party.
B. To help them get to know each other.
C. To ask them to share some interesting stories.
D. To let them enjoy what they grew in the garden.
4.What did the writer most probably think of the time he spent in the garden?
