    “How was school, Ben?” I asked my grandson after he began kindergarten(幼儿园) this year. “The work is too long… and there’s not enough time to play,” he replied.
    I couldn’t help but remember Ben’s own mother, my daughter, Jane, and her reaction(反应) to the first day of school. Julie was also disappointed with the first day of school and so was her little sister. My three-year-old daughter announced angrily after her big sister got on the big yellow school bus, “I want to go ‘sool’ and you not let me!”
    When Julie returned home that afternoon, I asked her the same question that I asked Ben, “How was school, Julie?” Julie replied, “I didn’t learn to read today.”
    This year as the school bus passed my house, my mind went back to those school days again. I could almost smell the chalk dust in the air. I also wonder what the children these days manage to get chosen to do in order to get out of school for a few moments since there are no erasers to clean. It was fun to be “chosen” for eraser cleaning duty. This was a task finished by going outside and beating erasers together while sneezing and coughing. No wonder so many babies now have allergies(过敏症), and it’s simply because we all have chalk dust in our lungs!
    On the first day of school, the expectation was so great that I would be ready long before it was time to leave for school. We didn’t have backpacks because we had cigar boxes. We carried our small supplies inside a cigar box from one of the local stores. We saved the cigar boxes and used them from year to year until they fell apart.
    The first day of school was exciting. It was a new beginning. The doors of knowledge had been opened. The first day of school is an event in our lives that most of us remember. It’s a big step for a small child toward leaving babyhood and so “there isn’t enough time to play”.
    小题1:Why did Jane become angry according to the passage?
    A．Because she didn’t learn to read on the first day of school.
    B．Because there was too much work for her to do at school.
    C．Because she had no time to play at school.
    D．Because she was not allowed to go to school.
    小题2:The underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 suggests that       .
    A．the author was thinking of her school days jokingly
    B．the author warned students against the harm of chalk dust
    C．the author suffered from an allergy because of chalk dust
    D．the author doubted whether her lungs had chalk dust
    小题3:In the opinion of the author, the first day of school is        .
    A．a day when a child is the happiest
    B．a day when a child does much work
    C．the beginning of great learning
    D．the end of childhood full of toys

    小题1:D
    小题2:A
    小题3:C

    Michelle Obama made a daring decision to return to the same designer who created her Inaugural (就职）Ball dress four years ago --- and the risk paid off.
    The First Lady looked extremely attractive in a thin, sweeping, and ruby-colored dress by designer Jason Wu. She teamed the dramatic dress with heels by Jimmy Choo and a diamond ring by Kimberly McDonald.
    She surprised the fashion establishment by returning to a Wu design which had been the custom made for her.
    Four years ago at her first Inauguration Ball, Michelle shimmered（熠熠生辉）in an off-white, one-shouldered floor-length dress by the designer.
    Wu, who was 26 at the time and had only been working in fashion for three years, saw his career take off after the First Lady's surprise decision to wear one of his dresses.
    He said at the time that he was unaware she had chosen the dress and had been watching at home on his couch and eating pizza when she appeared.
    After her 2013 decision, Wu told Women's Wear Daily: “Mrs Obama likes to keep her secrets. She fooled me again.”
    Wu released a women's clothing and accessories（装饰品）collection at Target last year and continues to be popular with the First Lady for official engagements.
    The sleeveless, cross-halter neck dress with low-cut back flattered（突出）49-year-old Michelle's arms and neat waist.
    It had been created especially for her by Wu and was a departure from the dark and plain colour tone she stuck to at earlier inauguration events.
    Mrs Obama's new hairstyle -- she had bangs（美发沙龙）cut on her birthday last week  had been loosely tousled（蓬松的）for the special night.
    Vice-President Joe Biden's wife Jill also looked attractive in a blue silk dress by Vera Wang at the Inauguration Ball.
    小题1:What does the passage mainly talk about？
    A．Michelle Obama’s inaugural ball dress.
    B．Wu, a great designer.

    小题2:Michelle Obama’s brave decision proved to be a_________.
    A．riskB．danger

    A．Mrs Obama’s inaugural dresses were made by the same designer.
    B．Joe Biden’s wife Jill also had her dress created by Wu.
    C．The colour tone at Michelle’s earlier inaugural events was not satifactory.
    D．Mrs Obama had straight forehead hair as her new hairstyle for the special night.
    小题4: Which of the following best describes Jason Wu?
    A．Daring and gifted.
    B．Unusual and cautious.
    C．Careful and brave.
    D．Talented and lucky.

    A．Wu was aware that Mrs Obama had chosen his work again
    B．Wu didn’t know Mrs Obama had chosen his creation again.
    C．Mrs Obama told Wu to give away her secrets

    Learning how to be patient with people can be challenging for some. After all, not everybody is gifted with great patience. The good news is that it is something that can be learned and eventually perfected.
    When the customer before you takes ages to pay for his or her groceries, you tap your foot impatiently and cough every now and then; but no, the customer is still not hurrying up. It takes all of your power not to make a scene.  However, if you picture that customer to be someone you like (say your partner), then you will find yourself not getting too annoyed, right? So the next time you find yourself losing patience with somebody, simply visualize that person to be someone you really, really like and your patience will extend its life.
    The second step on how to be patient with people involves whistling. When you whistle a happy tune, you instantly cheer up. You can sing your favorite song if you can't whistle - it really doesn't make a difference. What's important here is that you have done something that makes you feel good. And when you feel good, you are more likely to be patient with the people around you.
    Next, when you're stressed, it's almost impossible to learn how to be patient with people. If you know you're going to be in a situation where your patience will be tested, meditate or get yourself a massage(按摩) first. Don't dive into anything unless you've managed to clear yourself off negative emotions. Remember: the more stressed you are, the faster you'll lose your temper. The less stress you have in your life, the longer your patience.
    Learning how to patient with people is not a necessity in life. You've seen people who manage to survive day to day with incredibly bad tempers after all. But do you really want to live like they do? If, however, you want a life that has better quality than that, then just follow these steps and embrace the fact that patience is a virtue.
    小题1:what does the underlined phrase in paragraph 2 mean?
    A．quarrel publiclyB．make something appear
    C．drive away D．feel happy
    小题2:Which of the following can best summarize the topic of paragraph2?
    A．We should love everyone around us.
    B．Show your impatience when your customers aren’t in a hurry.
    C．Think of others fondly.
    D．To be patient is really difficult occasionally.
    小题3:When you realized that your patience is being examined, you should________.
    A．it is possible to control it
    B．let it known by whoever you are facing
    C．do whatever you like and don’t care what others say
    D．learn to relax yourself in a possible way
    小题4:Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the text?
    A．We have to learn to be patient with others because it can benefit us.
    B．When you are under pressure, it is unavoidable to be impatient.
    C．Doing something that you like may make you feel good when you are impatient.
    D．Patience is a quality that can be improved.

    Visiting London can be an expensive trip, so establishing a budget and finding bargains when you arrive will help you get around London on the cheap. The following steps can help you find cheaper alternatives for transport for your London trip.
    l Familiarize yourself with the city’s boroughs and specifically the area where you will be staying. You can use a street map, or an online map search engine, to establish where in the city you will be staying and the distance you are from the major tourist attractions you want to visit.
    l Find a local provider of Transport for London tickets or travel cards, since your first bargain purchase will be an Oyster Card. Traveling around London with an Oyster Card will give you access to the cheapest option of transportation methods and the Oyster Card is accepted citywide on buses, boats and the London Underground, known by the locals as “the tube”.

    You want to have fun and adventure and so you decide to travel somewhere to do it. Sounds like a simple enough thing. And basically it is. But what is adventure? That is the key here and the answer can be different for different people.
    For those who love sports, adventure travel can have a whole different meaning than for those who like history. The physical travel types that you can find include such adventure travel as white water rafting (白浪漂流), kayaking or climbing and hiking to some mountains somewhere. To the hiker, backpacking across Ireland might be their adventure. For this type of person, adventure travel almost always includes something physical. Often the goal is to push their body’s limits and test their individual endurance (耐力).
    For those who less want to climb mountains, adventure travel might mean traveling to Nepal and taking in the local festivals. Wine tasting in Italy is also vacation adventure for the more relaxed traveler who enjoys peace and comfort. Anything that is opposite to the normal scope (范围) of the traveler’s lifestyle defines (定义) adventure.
    Adventure travel is not necessarily a one-size-fits-all type of vacation. Adventure depends on the person’s physical limits, how much money the person has and what the person enjoys doing. Going beyond the normal is adventurous for many. If your life is quite busy, then sitting on a beach in the moonlight with your family might be adventure for you. The point is not what you do but that you have a good time and that it is an adventure for YOU — not for the person next to you.
    Do not sit home this year when vacation time rolls around. Go beyond your normal routine and try something new. If you usually spend your vacation sun-bathing on a beach, try hiking, instead, through the mountains. Look around you, think beyond your comfort zone and head out on an adventure vacation.
    小题1:For a quiet traveler, he is most likely to choose _________.
    A．backpacking across a country
    B．wine tasting in a bar
    C．hiking to some mountains
    D．white water rafting
    小题2:To have an adventure travel, the most important is _________.
    A．whether you enjoy yourself
    B．whether you try something dangerous
    C．where you go for the traveling
    D．what you do in the traveling
    小题3:The underlined word “beyond” in Paragraph 4 probably means “_________”.
    A．according toB．later thanC．more thanD．less than
    小题4:From the passage, we can make a conclusion that _________.
    A．adventure travel always includes something dangerous
    B．adventure travel will cost you a large sum of money
    C．anything that goes beyond the normal is adventure travel
    D．adventure travelers like to do things to the limits of their body
    小题5:The best title for the passage may be “_________”.
    A．Tips on adventure travel
    B．Who is interested in adventure travel
    C．What is adventure travel
    D．Popular places for adventure travel

    In 490 B.C. the Greek messenger,  Pheidippides , ran about 40 kilometers from the town of “Marathon”to  Athens to announce the victory of  Athens over Macedon . Since then ,the 42–kilometer “Marathon”race has become a great test for athletes.

     71  Because, from what I could see, it seemed that grown-ups often forgot. I never wanted to forget --- I wanted to be able to remind other adults and myself when the time came. I began consciously(有意识地) thinking this at quite an early age.
    As soon as I was fully aware (意识到) of myself, I regarded me as a little person and liked adults who thought of and treated me the same way. I didn’t have a doll and I didn’t want one. I wanted animal toys, even a single animal. Why wouldn’t my parents give me the one thing I wanted?  72  
    Instead, my dad somehow managed to buy me a full set of encyclopedia(百科全书) and books with maps and color pictures long before I could read. Well, guess what? I learned to read without realizing it! Later, I found out when I started school and it all came so easy especially geography.  73  Because of all the books my father bought me, I knew a lot of words that other children didn’t know at my age.
    I love words. They opened up new worlds for me.  74  Parents, please make sure your kids have a computer. Let them explore　— as safely as possible— let them do their own things and discover the world.
    Now, most kids lead a happy life. They can get what they want from their parents. But children should learn to be independent.  75  Be independent to do your own things.
    A．Because of them, I read and thought, and today, I write.
    B．When I was a child, I promised myself to try to remember as much as I could.
    C．I listened and heard everything, even if I didn’t understand everything.
    D．I nearly knew every place on the map like the teacher.
    E. But more than anything, it made me feel uncomfortable and I knew it wasn’t nice.
    F. Later, I knew we didn’t have much money, but how expensive could a toy be?
    G. Be independent to learn some useful knowledge.

    I paid a visit to Cambridge last January.  Though the trip took me 5 hours and it rained the whole day with strong winds there, the town deserved a visit.
    The bus started at 6:10 a. m. It stopped at 4 airports before we finally arrived，which wasted more time than we expected. Tired with long sitting，one passenger stood up to relax his numbed legs. The driver asked him to sit down but in vain. So he pulled up and said seriously, “Either you get off or sit down.” To him, safety is the first policy.
    Cambridge consists of over thirty colleges. The oldest part of the university was built in the 13th century while the newest was founded in the mid 1960s.The number of the students is so great that many students live in lodgings（出租房）and move into college for their final year.
    Cambridge is called a university town because there is no clear separation between the university buildings and the rest of the city. The university is not just one part of the town；it is all over the town. The heart of Cambridge has shops，pubs，and supermarkets，but most of it is university-colleges，departments，libraries，clubs and other places for university staff and students. Students fill the shops，cafes，banks and churches，making these as well part of the university.
    With over 10,000 undergraduates and postgraduates, the town is a busy place indeed. Students here are not allowed to keep cars. If you happen to be walking in the street during a break，better stop a moment to avoid the boiling sea of bicycles hurrying in all directions，carrying students from one college or lecture room to another.
    小题1:The writer believed that the trip took more time because of________
    A．bad weatherB．unexpected stops of the bus
    C．one passengerD．an accident on the way
    小题2:Why is Cambridge called a university town？
    A．It has 10，000 undergraduates and postgraduates.
    B．There are over thirty colleges in the town.
    C．All the students and staff live in the town.
    D．The university and town are fully combined.
    小题3:It can be inferred that most Cambridge students take _______as their first means of transport.
    A．boatsB．carsC．bicycles D．buses
