Jolly Joe always arrived at my neighborhood at exactly half past noon. The clang (叮当声) of the bell on his red and black truck was then the sweetest sound in the world. Brightly colored stickers advertising his amazing kinds of treats could be found on all sides of his truck. The whole neighborhood would magically come to life.
Holding a nickel (五分镍币), I’d run to the back of the vehicle, where children were already gathering. Jolly Joe would jump out of his truck, the sun shining on his hair. He was an older man, short and round, with a pleasant face and a welcoming smile.
I don’t know how, but he knew us all by name, as well as which treats we preferred. My favorite was the Buried Treasure. By eating all the ice cream, you’d discover the treasure inside: a lion, a dog or even a funny clown — printed onto a plastic stick.
When it was finally my turn, he’d put his arm deep inside one of the boxes, and pause (停顿) for a moment, a puzzled look crossing his face. Then, suddenly, he’d pull it out: the Buried Treasure! I couldn’t wait to enjoy the cool, sweet ice cream.
As quickly as he arrived, it was time for Jolly Joe to go, leaving behind laughing, excited children with sticky hands and faces. Soon the sound of his clanging bell would slowly disappear in the distance.
I always hated to see Jolly Joe go, because I knew the rest of the day would be as hot and boring as before. But I took some comfort in knowing that the next day he’d come round the corner at half past noon and once again spread his magic.
1.Jolly Joe was liked mostly by _____.
A. childrenB. passengersC. advertisersD. drivers
2.Why did the author like the Buried Treasure best?
A. It gave great pleasure to his pet.
B. It was the cheapest of all the treats.

3.Which of the following can best describe Jolly Joe?
A. Dishonest and tricky.
B. Wealthy and kind.
C. Brave and hard-working.
D. Happy and humorous.
4.What would be the best title for the text?
A. Lost treasure found at last
B. A clanging bell in the distance
C. Ice cream man spreads frozen magic
D. My friendship with an ice cream man

Once when I was facing a decision that involved high risk, I went to a friend. He looked at me for a moment, and then wrote a sentence containing the best advice I’ve ever had: Be bold and brave — and mighty (强大的) forces will come to your aid.
Those words made me see clearly that when I had fallen short in the past, it was seldom because I had tried and failed. It was usually because I had let fear of failure stop me from trying at all. On the other hand, whenever I had plunged into deep water, forced by courage or circumstance, I had always been able to swim until I got my feet on the ground again.
Boldness means a decision to bite off more than you can eat. And there is nothing mysterious about the mighty forces. They are potential powers we possess: energy, skill, sound judgment, creative ideas — even physical strength greater than most of us realize.
Admittedly, those mighty forces are spiritual ones. But they are more important than physical ones. A college classmate of mine, Tim, was an excellent football player, even though he weighed much less than the average player. “In one game I suddenly found myself confronting a huge player, who had nothing but me between him and our goal line,” said Tim. “I was so frightened that I closed my eyes and desperately threw myself at that guy like a bullet — and stopped him cold.”
Boldness — a willingness to extend yourself to the extreme—is not one that can be acquired overnight. But it can be taught to children and developed in adults. Confidence builds up. Surely, there will be setbacks (挫折) and disappointments in life; boldness in itself is no guarantee of success. But the person who tries to do something and fails is a lot better off than the person who tries to do nothing and succeeds.
So, always try to live a little bit beyond your abilities—and you’ll find your abilities are greater than you ever dreamed.
1.Why was the author sometimes unable to reach his goal in the past?
A. He faced huge risks.
B. He lacked mighty forces.
C. Fear prevented him from trying.
D. Failure blocked his way to success.
2.What was especially important for Tim’s successful defense in the football game?
A. His physical strength.B. His basic skill.
C. His real fear.D. His spiritual force.
3.What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage?
A. To encourage people to be courageous.
B. To advise people to build up physical power.
C. To tell people the ways to guarantee success.
D. To recommend people to develop more abilities.

“Have a nice day!” may be a pleasant gesture or a meaningless expression. When my friend Maxie says “Have a nice day!” with a smile, I know she sincerely cares about what happens to me. I feel loved and secure since another person cares about me and wishes me well.
“Have a nice day. Next!” This version(版本) of the expression is spoken by a salesgirl at the supermarket who is rushing me and my groceries out the door. The words come out in the same tone with a fixed procedure. They are spoken at me, not to me. Obviously, the concern for my day and everyone else’s is the management’s attempt to increase business.
The expression is one of those behaviors that help people get along with each other. Sometimes it indicates the end of a meeting. As soon as you hear it, you know the meeting is at an end. Sometimes the expression saves us when we don’t know what to say. “Oh, you just had a tooth out? I’m terribly sorry, but have a nice day.”
The expression can be pleasant. If a stranger says “Have a nice day” to you, you may find it heart-warming because someone you don’t know has tried to be nice to you.
Although the use of the expression is an insincere, meaningless social custom at times, there is nothing wrong with the sentence except that others who speak it without thinking may not really care about my day. But in a strange and comfortable way, it’s nice to know they care enough to pretend they care when they really don’t care all that much. While the expression may not often be sincere, it is always spoken. The point is that people say it all the time when they like.
1.How does the author understand Maxie’s word?
A. Maxie really wishes the author a good day.
B. Maxie shows her anxiety to the author.
C. Maxie encourages the author to stay happy.
D. Maxie really worries about the author’s security (安全).
2.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. The salesgirl is rude.
B. The salesgirl is bored.
C. The salesgirl cares about me.
D. The salesgirl says the words as a routine(惯例).
3.By saying “Have a nice day.” a stranger may ________.
A. express respect to you
B. give his blessing to you
C. try to be friendly to you
D. share his pleasure with you
4.What is the best title of the passage?
A. Have a nice day—a meaningless expression
B. Have a nice day—a Heart-warming Greeting
C. Have a nice day—a Social Custom
D. Have a nice day—a Polite Ending of a Conversation

根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
The holiday season isn’t about shopping and gifts. 1. However, holiday travel can be more expensive than gifts. Fortunately, the following tips will help keep your travel spending under control.
Plan ahead. The earlier you book your travel, from airfare to hotels, the easier it is to find good deals. 2. Your best prices on airfare come when you book three weeks before the plane leaves for domestic(国内的) flights. For international flights, consider booking 30 days in advance. Many experts point out that you should book travel between one month and three months out for high-traffic holidays.
Book your air travel on cheaper days. Traveling by air on Tuesdays and Wednesdays often costs less than on Fridays and Sundays. During the holidays, it’s not just about a specific day of the week. You also need to consider the days surrounding the holiday but days immediately before and after a holiday can be expensive. One of the best ways to save is to plan your air travel on the day of the holiday. 3.
Consider traveling overnight. Red-eye flights and overnight flights often cost less than those at more convenient times. 4. Traveling overnight can help you avoid a night in the hotel, as well as save your money on travel to your destination.
5. You can’t bring liquids with you on the airline, but you can bring sandwiches and other snacks. When you’re on the road, you can buy food at local groceries to make your own meals, especially if you have access to（可使用） a microwave.
A. Bring your own food.
B. Consider affordable accommodations.
C. Traveling by plane is not the best choice.
D. Plus, booking earlier can save your money.
E. For instance, traveling on Christmas Day might be a great deal.
F. A great deal of travel also takes place during this time of year.
G. Other choices include sleeper trains as well as overnight ferries.
