    The price of milk may be going up. There was not enough rain in some parts of the country last year and the bad weather may mean that a gallon (加仑) of milk will cost 41 cents more after October 1st.
    California already has high milk prices and the California court does not want the price to go any higher. High milk prices will be very hard for some people. Families with many children will have to spend more money to buy milk. The poor and older people without much money will also be hurt by higher prices.
    The court said that more milk from other states should be sold in California as the price of milk from other states is not as high. Some states got enough rain so their costs did not go up. People will then be able to buy the cheaper milk, meaning that unless milk producers bring their milk prices down, their milk will not sell.
    The drought (干旱) around the country has meant market forces are likely to push milk prices up by as much as 41-cent a gallon by October 1st. Experts said this decision by the Californian court could reduce (减少) the effect of the price rise here.
    The 41-cent increase would add to California’s already high milk prices so California must allow more milk producers from outside the state to sell their products there. This would then lead to increased supplies (供应), which would, as a result, stop milk prices from increasing.
    小题1:Who will be hurt by high milk prices?
    A．Young people.B．Milk producers from outside California.
    C．Rich people.D．Families with lots of children.
    小题2:What caused milk prices in California to increase?
    A．Short supplies from other states.B．Being short of rain.
    C．The California court.D．Children’s need for milk.
    小题3:What will California do to keep milk prices down?
    A．Force milk producers to lower their price.
    B．Encourage people to drink less milk.
    C．Get men to produce more rain.
    D．Increase the supply of milk in the state.

    小题1:D
    小题2:B
    小题3:D    

    试题分析：
    小题1:细节题：第二段的句子：Families with many children will have to spend more money to buy milk. 可知答案是D
    小题2:推理题;从第三段的句子：The drought (干旱) around the country has meant market forces are likely to push milk prices up by as much as 41-cent a gallon by October 1st.可知是因为雨水减少导致牛奶价格上涨的。选B
    小题3:细节题：从最后一段的句子：California must allow more milk producers from outside the state to sell their products there可知增加牛奶供应是很好的解决办法。选.D

    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

    Recipients（接受者）of this year's Annenberg scholarships were announced on June 19. Brittany Blythe was one of them.
    In seventh grade，Brittany Blythe dreamed of being a cheerleader（啦啦队队员）. Her school’s coaches were less than enthusiastic. “They said. ‘I don't know how you’ll be able to do it’. ”she recalls. “‘You won’t be able to do it’.”
    But Brittany，now a junior at Strath Haven High School near Philadelphia，refused to give up. And when the junior school cheerleaders won a tournament last year, she was right there，dancing and cheering with the rest of the team.
    Not bad for someone whose legs were cut off below the knee when she was two years old.
    Brittany,18,was born without shinbones(胫骨）—“just blood and muscle tissue，”as she puts it. When she tried to walk, her legs twisted.    
    After the operation, she adapted quickly. “From day one，I basically jumped up and wanted to do everything,’’ she says. Prostheses(假肢)allowed her to move around upright. But too slowly to keep up with her friends. Brittany’s solution was to take the legs off and walk on her knees something she still does when safety and comfort permit.
    She has been rarely discouraged. Other children laughed at her through the years，especially in junior high school，but she says the challenge only made her stronger. Now she’s trying to convince her coaches to let her remove the prostheses and be a flyer. The cheerleader who's thrown in the air and caught by her teammates.
    Brittany doesn’t think her problems put her at a disadvantage. “My disability was the first thing I had to get through., and that’s going to prepare me for the future. ”she says. “It’s all just a test：If someone throws you a difficult problem，what are you going to do?”   
    小题1: What was the coaches’ first attitude towards Brittany's dream?
    A．SupportiveB．EnthusiasticC．OptimisticD．Doubtful
    小题2: What was Brittany’s reaction after the operation?
    A．She abandoned herself to self-pity.
    B．She refused to use the prostheses.
    C．She accepted the result and tried to get used to it.
    D．She challenged the children who laughed at her.
    小题3: What does Brittany want to achieve at the moment?
    A．To stop others’laughing at her.
    B．To prove her coaches wrong.
    C．To remove her prostheses.
    D．To be a flyer.
    小题4: We can learn from the last paragraph that Brittany _________.
    A．doesn’t think she is better than others
    B．is not well prepared for the future
    C．takes a positive attitude towards life
    D．likes the challenge of learning new things

    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

    One year, my school report made my parents angry. On Christmas Eve, all the presents were stolen, along with our TV. My parents told me that there were no presents because Santa was very angry with my behavior over the past year. The next year on Christmas Eve I slept downstairs with a plastic sword waiting for Santa to make sure that he didn't steal the new TV. The next morning, when I woke up, I saw Santa standing there. As soon as I saw that there were no presents, I grabbed my plastic sword and ran at him, shouting angrily: "THIEF! THIEF!"
    Jack
    When I was young, we always had a specific room for the Christmas tree. My mom never really liked the location, so one year she moved the tree into another room. I was convinced that Santa would not know where the tree was and would get lost in our house. I was worried that he would be mad and put me on the "bad" list and would not give me any gifts because he couldn't find the tree. I came up with the idea to make signs leading from the fireplace to the tree. They said things like: "Tree this way" or "Santa, put the gifts over here." When my big brother saw them he began to laugh his head off.
    Lucy
    Does everyone remember going to the mall and sitting on Santa’s lap to have his picture taken at Christmas time?
    Well, I used to think that if I did that, Santa would get mad bcause he would have to go all around the world and give every kid the chance to have his picture taken with him. Of course his lap would hurt and he would be very fired. I thought he might keep a copy of the picture and that would be how he decided who would be on his naughty list.
    My mom couldn't get me onto Santa's lap until she made him promise I wouldn't end up on his naughty list.
    Lydia
    小题1:The real reason why Jack's TV was taken away is that ______________.

    C．Her big brother might laugh at her.
    D．Santa might think she was a "bad" child.

    B．Lydia believed in Santa when she was young
    C．Lydia was naughty when she was young

    When I was about 12, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings(缺点). Week by week her list grew: I was very thin, I wasn’t a good student, I talked too much, I was too proud, and so on. I tried to hear all this as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.
    He listened to me quietly, and then he asked. “Are the things she says true or not? Janet, didn’t you ever wonder what you’re really like? Well, you now have that girl’s opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark(标记) the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.”
    I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t change (like being very thin), but a good number I could — and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I go to fairly clear picture of myself.
    I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused(拒绝) to take it. “That’s just for you,” he said. “You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt. When something said about you is true, you’ll find it will be of help to you. Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Don’t shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do.”
    Daddy’s advice has returned to me at many important moments. In my life, I’ve never had a better piece of advice.
    小题1:What does “Week by week her list grew” mean in the first paragraph?
    A．As time went by, she discovered more shortcomings of mine.
    B．She made a longer list of my shortcomings the next week.
    C．She more and more disliked me as time went by.
    D．She added one more shortcoming on the list every week.
    小题2:What did the father ask her daughter to do when she complained(抱怨) about her “enemy”?
    A．To pay no attention to her “enemy’s” gossiping.
    B．To keep away from her “enemy” at school.
    C．To write down what the girl said and accept the truth.
    D．To do whatever she wanted to as usual.
    小题3:Why did her father refuse to take the list her daughter made?
    A．Because he wanted her daughter to perfect herself.
    B．Because what the list said were not his shortcomings.
    C．Because he thought the list didn’t belong to him.
    D．Because he believed the list could be well kept by her.
    小题4:Which do you think would be the best title for this passage?
    A．Not an Enemy, But a Good Friend B．The Best Advice I’ve Ever Had
    C．My Father and I D．My Childhood

    To see the world is one thing; to have someone to share it with is another. Indeed, travel becomes more interesting when you have a travel partner. A travel partner can be a close friend, a family member, a pal you’ve met online, or a business friend.
    You can have someone to talk to
    Traveling alone is fun, but wouldn’t you feel lonely? Having a travel partner can remove the feeling of loneliness. This is especially true if you can get a travel companion who is very familiar with the place you’re traveling to. You don’t have to ask any information from the locals, and you can increase the time you spend in the country.
                               
    One of the major headaches in traveling is the costs involved. You can’t simply ignore the rising price of hotels or plane tickets. You should also think about your daily needs, such as your food. Of course, you can’t simply go back without bringing any souvenirs (纪念品) to your friends and family. All these can ruin your budget. However, when you have a travel friend, you can have someone to share the expenses with.
    You can meet a good friend
    Having a travel mate is a good way of meeting a new friend or even a lifelong partner. You can never count the number of couples who actually found their way into each other’s heart while traveling together in another country.
    You can have someone to watch out for you
    When you’re in a foreign land, you’ll never be really safe. You don’t know the rules as well as the culture of the people. A travel will be perfect to remind you of your duties in the country and to watch your back just in case you get lost. So why don’t you find a travel companion now!
    Let’s find out how…
    小题1:What’s the author’s purpose in writing this passage?
    A．To introduce a travel company.
    B．To encourage us to have a travel partner.
    C．To explain how to be a perfect travel partner.
    D．To tell an interesting experience with a travel partner.
    小题2:What’s the best title for the 3rd paragraph?
    A．You can have someone to share the expenses with
    B．You can know the local culture well
    C．You can enjoy food with your partner
    D．You can save money by bargaining together
    小题3:Which of the following statements agrees with the author’s opinion?
    A．Traveling alone is not fun.
    B．Buying souvenirs isn’t necessary.
    C．Many people fall in love when traveling.
    D．It’s better to choose a stranger as a travel partner.
    小题4:Which of the following things is NOT mentioned?
    A．A travel partner can help you take care of your child.
    B．A travel partner can help get rid of loneliness.
    C．A travel partner can help you save money.
    D．A travel partner can make you safer.
