Dear Mr. Rupp,

The day I met you was the first day of high school. We liked each other immediately. You gave me a lot of advice over the next four years, like how I should get my ass to Berkeley where I belonged. I’m still there, by the way. I wish you were still around, too.

I remember your laugh, which would start with a rough guffaw(狂笑) and end with a hacking smoker’s cough that would make even the most rebellious (叛逆的) teenager decide to lay off the cigarettes. I remember the way you didn’t lower your standards, yet still refused to give up on us. You were tough on us, and we were tough on you. Love is tough sometimes.

The last time I wrote you a letter, it was 2005—four years after I graduated. I had just become a teacher, like you, and it had given me a new appreciation for the work you did with countless high school students over the years.

It’s hard to say what I’ll miss the most about you. There are simply too many memories to sort through those four years, and it hurts to think you’ll never read this letter. I want to believe that you knew how much you meant to your family, your students, your community, and your colleagues, but that would be a lot of realization to handle, even for you.

You changed the lives of everyone around you. Even now, you are reminding me to cherish life and its brevity and beauty, and to tell the people I love how much they mean to me before it is too late.

Dear teacher, dear mentor, and dear friend—I miss you and all that is about you. God bless you in Heaven.

To infinity and beyond,

Teresea

Imagine you are in a jumping contest. Animals and insects can also enter this contest. But they might just leave humans in the dust!

The first event is the long jump. The human athlete is Mike Powell. In 1991, he jumped nearly 30 feet, which is the world record for the long jump. That is about five times his own height.

His competitor in the long-jump contest is a frog named “Rosie the Ribbiter.” Rosie set the world record for frogs in 1986 by jumping more than 21 feet. Her record has never been broken by any other frog. Compared to Mike Powell, Rosie’s jump is not that amazing. But wait! Rosie is only about 10 inches long when her legs are stretched to their full length. She can jump more than 25 times her size. Rosie, the frog, wins the long-jump event.

The next event is the high jump. Javier Sotomayor, the world record holder, can jump a bar (横杆) 8 feet high. That is about as high as the ceiling in most homes.

Looking around for someone to challenge his record, Javier might need a magnifying glass (放大镜). The next contestant is a tiny insect called the spittlebug (吹沫虫).

The spittlebug can jump 28 inches into the air. It is only a quarter-inch long, less than the width of a pencil. If the spittlebug were the same size as Javier, it would be able to jump 600 feet into the air. That is like a human jumping over a building 55 stories high!

Though the humans lose the “jumping contest,” their competitors would probably agree that Mike and Javier are still pretty excellent athletes. If only Rosie and the spittlebug could speak!

1.The underlined word “contestant” in Paragraph 5 means “_____”.

A. coachB. teammateC. challengerD. record holder

2.What can we learn about the spittlebug?

A. It likes living on the ceiling.

B. It is good at flying in the air.

C. It is the same length as a pencil.

D. It has a wonderful jumping talent.

3.In the author’s opinion, Rosie and the spittlebug’s jumping abilities are ________.

A. surprisingB. promisingC. doubtfulD. fearful

4.How does the author develop the text?

A. By giving instructions.

B. By making comparisons.

C. By following the order of time.

D. By following the order of importance.

Tom goes everywhere with Catherine Green, a 54-year-old secretary. He moves around her office at work and goes shopping with her. "Most people don't seem to mind Tom," says Catherine, who thinks he is wonderful. "He's my fourth child," she says. She may think of him and treat him that way as her son, buying his food, paying his health bills and his taxes, but in fact Tom is a dog.

Catherine and Tom live in Sweden, a country where everyone is expected to lead an orderly life according to rules laid down by the government, which also provides a high level of care for its people. This level of care costs money.

People in Sweden pay taxes on everything, so aren't surprised to find that owning a dog means yet more taxes. Some people are paying as much as 500 Swedish kronor in taxes a year for the right to keep their dog, money that is spent by the government on dog hospitals and sometimes medical treatment for a dog that falls ill. However, most such treatment is expensive, so owners often decide to offer health and even life premium for their dog.

In Sweden dog owners must pay for any damage their dog does. A Swedish Kennel Club official explains what this means: if your dog runs out on the road and gets hit by a passing car you, as the owner, have to pay for any damage done to the car, even if your dog has been killed in the accident.

1.The money paid as dog taxes is used to ________.

A. provide medical care for dogs

B. pay for damage done by dogs

C. keep a high level of care for the people

D. buy insurance for dog owners

2.The underlined world "premium" possibly means ________.

A. entertainment expenseB. medical check

C. payment for risksD. protection fee

3.If a dog causes a car accident and gets killed, who should pay for the damage done to the car?

A. The government.

B. The owner of the car.

C. The insurance company.

D. The owner of the dog.

4.From the text it can be inferred that in Sweden ________.

A. people care much about dogs

B. keeping dogs means asking for trouble

C. many car accidents are caused by dogs

D. dogs are welcome in public places
