Sometimes  51  a dreamer can be brought back to earth 52  words from a teacher can usually bring a day-dreaming student down-to-earth.

My father was in the navy, which meant that my mother was married to both my father and the sea. As was often the case, we had to pack our belongings into boxes and  41  those we had grown to love. We would arrive at our new home and find ourselves once again  42  at the pier(码头)waving good-bye to my father as his  43  pulled him away from us. My mother would turn my brother and I around before the ship was out of  44  , wipe our tears, and take us back home to start the process of  45  in the new environment again.
Throughout the years of changing  46  , schools and friends, there remained one constant in my childhood—my mother. For both my   47  and I, she was the cook, maid and teacher. She played these roles while  48  some type of part-time job. Leaving a promising career is just one of the  49  which my mother made for my family as we moved around the world with our father every three years or so.  50  she had to deal with only a small budget, my mother  51  managed to make each house to be the very home that is safe and  52  .
This probably sounds like a depressing way to live,  53  with two small children: “single” parenthood, short-term friendships, and the inability to  54  a career or establish a home. But it was not for my mother. She turned this  55  into adventure for us all! Each relocation was a chance to  56  another part of the world. My mother greeted each new culture, climate and neighborhood. Each new house was a  57  to rearrange furniture, make curtains and  58 pictures. Every part-time job was an opportunity to learn something new and work with interesting people.
No matter how difficult the life was, she was always having a  59  attitude. She always had strength in the face of struggle and change. My mother was so  60  all those years of my childhood—she was my island in a sea of change. She is my hero.

If you want your land to keep fertile, you must try to stop soil from being carried away by water or wind. When soil is taken away by flowing water or blowing winds we call it soil erosion. Ways have been found to stop soil erosion, and this is known as soil conservation. One way of stopping soil erosion is to grow small plants such as grass. These plants are referred to a cover crops, whose roots hold the soil tightly together. The rain water can not wash away the soil. When trees and tall bushes are planted at the edges of an open field, soil erosion by strong winds can not take place. The trees and bushes, which act as a very big and firm wall, protect the open land from the winds. The way to stoop soil erosion on slopes is to build terraces on the slope of hillside and mountainside. When the slope of a hillside is cut into “step”, water carrying soil can not run straight down the terraces, which are used to slow down the speed of the flowing water containing much soil in it. In this way most of the soil in the water is left behind on the terraces, much soil in it.
小题1:What takes place in soil erosion?
A.Flood happens to the fertile land
B.A large quantity of the soil loses away gradually.
C.Terraces are built on the slope of hillside or mountainside.
D.Plants are grown to protect the open land
小题2:“Cover crops” in this passage means _________.?

小题3:Besides growing small plants, another method to fight against soil erosion is to ___________.
A.build terracesB.build wallsC.plant treesD.plant tall bushes
小题4:According to the passage, trees and tall bushes are planted around an open field ________________.
A.because their roots hold soil tightly
B.to stop soil from being blown away by winds.
C.Because soil erosion causes terrible damages to crops
D.To keep the balance of nature
小题5:Which of the following is the best title of the passage?
A.What Causes Soil Erosion

Allan goes everywhere with Birgitta Anderson, a 54-year-old secretary. He moves around her office at work and goes shopping with her. ‘Most people don't seem to mind Allan,’ says Birgitta, who thinks he is wonderful. 'He's my fourth child,' she says. She may think of him and treat him that way, buying his food, paying his health bills and his taxes, but in fact Allan is a dog. Birgitta and Allan 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 (提供)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 pay health and even life insurance (保险)for their dog. In Sweden dog owners must pay for any damage (损坏)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.
小题1: Birgitta pays taxes for Allan because         .
A.he is her dogB.he is her childC.he follows her everywhereD.he often falls ill

A.The owner of the car.B.The owner of the dog.

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

Everybody hates it,but everybody does it.A recent report said that 40%of Americans hate tipping.But why do tips exist?
The common opinion in the past was that tips both rewarded the efforts of good service and reduced uncomfortable feelings of inequality.It is believed that the better the service is,the bigger the tip will be.
But according to a new research from Cornell University,tips no longer serve any useful function.The paper analyzes number they got from 2,547 groups dining at 20 different restaurants.The connection between larger tips and better service was very weak.
Tipping is better explained by culture than by the money people spend.In America,tipping is regarded as part of the accepted cost of a service.In New York restaurants,failing to tip at least 15%could well mean dissatisfaction from the customers Hairdressers can expect to get 15%一20%.and the mall who delivers your fast food should be paid$2.In Europe,tipping is less common.In many restaurants the amount of tip is decided by a standard service charge In many Asian countries,tipping has never really caught on at a11.Only a few have really taken to tipping。
According to Michael Lynn,the Cornell papers’author,countries in which people are more social or outgoing tend to tip more.tie says,“In America,where people are expressive and eager to mix up with others,tipping is about social approval If you tip badly,people think less of you .Tipping well is a chance to show off.”
68.This passage is mainly about        
A.different kinds of tipping in different countries
B.the relationship between tipping and countries
C.the origin and present meanings of tipping
D.the reason why American people hate tipping
69.Which of the following best explains the underlined phrase“caught on”in paragraph 4?
A.been hated      B.become popular   C.been stopped    D.been permitted
70.Eating in a well—known restaurant in New York,who is likely to tip most?
A.A Frenchman.    B.A Chinese.  C.A Japanese.    D.An American.
71.We can infer from this passage that        .
A.tipping is no longer a good way to satisfy some customers themselves
B.tipping has something to do with people’s character
C.tipping in America can make service better now
D.tipping is no longer popular in New York
