My son ,Izzy, was a nine-year-old boy and had been begging me to please let him find his way home by subway, by himself. After all, we live in New York City, and getting around by public transportation is a basic part of life. It is also the first step toward feeling grown-up. So on that sunny Sunday,I gave him a subway map, a transportation card,$20 for emergencies, and a couple of coins so that he could call me if necessary. I didn’t give him a cell phone because nine-year-olds lose things. A few days later, I wrote about his adventure,or non-adventure for a newspaper. Little did I realize the idea that a kid could tour the city on his own, and that a mom would let him, was big news.
It turned out that many TV shows called me and asked for an interview. Bloggers were going crazy, so I started a blog, too, and letters came pouring in. Finally I found out why this was such a big story: we have become fearful for our children. Fear is hardly a new thing for parents, of course. But the fear of letting our children out of sight for even a second-that’s new. How did this happen? How did it become too scary to let kids be kids? I asked the question when the reporter Trevor Butterworth interviewed me.
“News reports,” he answered. “News reports scare the pants off you. What is scarier than a kidnapped(绑架) kid no matter how far away?Because there are so many such stories, it starts to feel as if kidnappings are happening all the time. That’s why the kid-on-the-subway story surprises the whole world.”
Izzy probably did a good job. He simply proved that kids could leave home alone and return home safely! But he didn’t think it was a big deal. “It was fun,” he said. “But I missed some classes because of the interviews.” Sometimes it really pays to be brave.
1.Why did the author let her son take the subway alone?
A. Because she always let her son do whatever he wanted.
B. Because she believed that her son had memorized the subway map.
C. Because she thought it would be big news around the whole world.
D. Because she felt traveling by subway in New York was a basic life skill.
2.The author gave her son all the following when he traveled alone EXCEPT_______.
A. a map. B. a cell phone.
C. a transportation card D. some money.
3.The author didn’t expect that after she wrote her son’s story for a newspaper, __________.
A. a blog would be started in her name
B. her son would receive so many letters
C. many TV shows would want to interview her
D. many TV stations would want to film her son’s story

Most of us have quite good memories, but our memories are limited. For example, we cannot remember everyone we have ever met or what we did on every single day of our lives. However, there are some people who do have prodigious memories. These people have a rare condition known as savant syndrome (学者症候群). Savants suffer from a developmental disorder, but they also exhibit great talents that contrast(显出差异) sharply with their physical and mental disabilities.
Kim Peek (1951-2009) was a savant who lived in Salt Lake City, Utah, in the United States. He was born with damage to parts of his brain, but it seemed that other parts of his brain, particularly those relating to memory, became over-developed.
Peek’s unique abilities appeared at a very early age. When he was just 20 months old, he could already remember every book that was read to him. Peek could read two pages of a book at the same time---one page with the right eye and one with the left---in less than 10 seconds and remember everything he read. By the time he died, Peek had memorized more than 9,000 books. He could remember all the names and numbers in a variety of telephone books. He could remember thousands of facts about history, literature, geography and sports.
Dr. David Treffert, an expert on savant syndrome, once described Peek as “a living Google” because of his astonishing ability to memorize and connect facts. However, at the same time, Peek was unable to carry out simple tasks, such as brushing his hair or getting dressed, and he needed others to help him. In 1989, the movie Rain Man won the Oscar for best Picture. The main character in the movie, played by Dustin Hoffman, was based on Kim Peek’s life. He started to appear on television, where he would amaze audiences by correctly answering difficult questions on different topics. Peek became world famous, and he and his father began touring widely to talk about overcoming disabilities. He inspired a great many people with his words. “Recognizing and respecting differences in others, and treating everyone in the way you want them to treat you, will make our world a better place for everyone. Everyone is different.”
1.The underlined word “prodigious” in Paragraph 1 probably means ________.
A. happy B. vivid C. amazing D. short
2.According to the text, Peek ________.
A. could take care of himself
B. was born with a good memory
C. was the student of Dr. David Treffert
D. became brain-damaged at 20 months old
3.How is Paragraph 3 mainly developed?
A. By proving facts. B. By following time order.
C. By analyzing causes. D. By making comparisons.
4.Peek’s words suggest that we should ________.
A. respect different cultures
B. listen to different opinions
C. treat different people differently
D. be respectful of others’differences

He’s an old cobbler(修鞋匠) with a shop in the Marais, a historic area in Paris.When I took him my shoes, he at first told me: “I haven’t time.Take them to the other fellow on the main street; he’ll fix them for you right away.”
But I’d had my eye on his shop for a long time. Just looking at his bench loaded with tools and pieces of leather, I knew he was a skilled craftsman. “No,” I replied, “The other fellow can’t do it well.”
“The other fellow” was one of those shopkeepers who fix shoes and make keys “while-U-wait”(立等可取)-- without knowing much about mending shoes or making keys. They work carelessly, and when they have finished sewing back a sandal strap (鞋带) ,you might as well just throw away the pair.
My man saw I wouldn’t give in, and he smiled. He wiped his hands on his blue apron (围裙), looked at my shoes, had me write my name on one shoe with a piece of chalk and said, “Come back in a week.”
I was about to leave when he took a pair of soft leather boot off a shelf.“See what
I can do” he said with pride. “Only three of us in Paris can do this kind of work.”
When I got back out into the street, the world seemed brand-new to me. He was something out of an ancient legend, an old craftsman with his way of speaking, his pride in his craft.
These are times when nothing is important but the bottom line, when you can do things any old way as long as it “pays”, when, in short, people look on work as a path to ever-increasing consumption (消费) rather than a way to realize their own abilities. In such a period, it is a rare comfort to find a cobbler who gets his greatest satisfaction from pride in a job well done.
1.Which of the following is true about the old cobbler?
A.He had the best repairing tools.
B.He was the only cobbler in the Marais.
C.He was proud of his skills.
D.He was a native Parisian.
2. The sentence “He was something out of an ancient legend.” (paragraph6) implies that .
A.nowadays you can hardly find anyone like him

C.the man was very strange
D.the man was too old
3.According to the author, many people work just to .
A.realize their abilities B.gain happiness
C.make money D.gain respect
4.This story wants to tell us that .
A.craftsmen make a lot of money
B.whatever you do, do it well
C.craftsmen need self-respect
D.people are born equal

This could be the perfect gift for the partner, who embarrasses you on the dance floor. Smart socks, which can teach to dance, may be the answer for anyone with two left feet.
The socks have been developed as a running tool to help runners improve their skills. Thanks to the socks, users can accurately(精确地) record not only know far and fast they run but also how well. It means the user maximizes(最大化)their performance, and reduces damage to body and prevents hurt. The hi-tech socks are made of special fibers(纤维) that watch the movements of your feet. They look, feel and can be washed like normal clothes.
Sensors record each movement and send it by an ankle transmitter (脚踝发射器) to a smart phone. Then a “virtual coach” application shows the information and can tell the user what they are doing wrong, and help to improve skill in any task with feet.
The socks should be useful to athletes and weekend joggers. “People think running is so easy and of course everybody can do it but not necessarily safely and well,” Dr Davide Vigano said. A recent study showed that between 60 and 80 percent of runners got hurt per year. This is pretty much more than any other human activity. Researchers say the technology can also be developed to teach people how to dance, play sports such golf, or even to help to teach women to walk better in high heels.
Mr. Vigano said, “People could all benefit from the idea. We have had interest from all sorts of sports, like skiing, football, cycling and golf. Anything where you have to use your feet can use it. It could even be put in high heels to help women walk in them safely.”
Socks are just the start, and the technology could be used in gloves, hats and boots. The socks, anklet and software package, are expected to be sold for around £120, which will go on sale in March.
1.What does the underlined part “anyone with two left feet” refer to?
A. People who are disabled.
B. People who invented the socks.
C. People who are not good at dancing.
D. People who are interested in dancing.
2.What’s special about fibers that the socks are made of ?
A. They can monitor the movement of feet.
B. They feel much softer than normal clothes.
C. They are expensive to produce.
D. They act as a smart phone for users.
3.According to Dr Vigano, _____
A. 60 to 80 percent of runners would like to buy the smart socks.
B. users can run as fast as they like with the socks.
C. everyone can make good use of the smart socks.
D. no runners will get hurt, thanks to the socks.
