    He had travelled thousands of miles in the hope of earning some money，but 18-year-old Lin Kongming never knew danger was waiting for him.
    He and six other migrant workers from Fujian Province spent 36 hours in Iraq as international hostages（人质）. But luckily，they were set free last Tuesday morning，unharmed by the people who had taken them hostage.
    After hard work by Chinese diplomats（外交官）in the region the Iraqi kidnappers（绑架者）agreed to hand them over to a local religious group.“The friendly relations between the Chinese and Iraqi peoples have played a key role in the release of the hostages,”said Foreign Ministry spokesman Kong Quan. China refused to join the US-led coalition（联军）in the Iraq war.
    Since April 4，over 60 hostages from 12 countries，including America，Italy and Japan，have been taken in Iraq. Some have been released, others were killed.
    The Iraqi resistance groups have started taking foreigners hostage in an attempt to force the US-led troops out of their country. As a result，many foreigners have left，fearing the situation will get worse. Some nations are also considering removing their troops from Iraq. Thailand has ordered its forces not to leave their camp and may bring them home before September as originally planned. New Zealand Prime Minister Helen Clark is considering similar action.
    But Dan Senor，spokesman for the US-led coalition in Baghdad，said that it would not negotiate（谈判）with “terrorists or kidnappers” to get hostages released.
    【小题1】The seven workers from Fujian were set free mainly because ______.

    A．they were too poor to pay anything
    B．kidnappers didn’t know they were Chinese
    C．China didn’t take sides with the US-led coalition
    D．kidnappers were friendly to the Chinese
    【小题2】Why did the Iraqi resistance groups start to take foreigners hostage？
    A．To show their anger towards the occupation of foreign troops.
    B．To tell the world they would fear nothing.
    C．To make foreign armies leave their country.
    D．To resist the American troops.
    【小题3】The author mentioned Dan Senor to show the US ______.
    A．wouldn’t give in to Iraqi terrorists or kidnappers
    B．had enough power to station in Iraq
    C．wouldn’t give up unless it could get something
    D．had no plan to bring its troops home
    【小题4】The passage mainly tells us ______.
    A．the hostage crises in Iraq
    B．foreigners were not welcome in Iraq
    C．the Chinese hostages were set free
    D．keeping away from Iraq is a wise choice


    【小题1】C
    【小题2】C
    【小题3】A
    【小题4】A

    This year some twenty-three hundred teenagers(young people aged from13~19)from all over the world will spend about ten months in U.S. homes. They will attend U.S. schools, meet U.S. teenagers, and form impressions of the real America. At the same time, about thirteen hundred American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new languages and gain a new understanding of the rest of the world.

       Here is a two-way student exchange in action. Fred, nineteen, spent last year in Germany with George’s family. In turn, George’s son Mike spent a year in Fred’s home in America.

       Fred, a lively young man, knew little German when he arrived, but after two months’ study the language began to come to him. School was completely different from what he had expected—much harder. Students rose respectfully when the teacher entered the room. They took fourteen subjects instead of the six that are usual in the United States. There were almost no outside activities.

       Family life, too, was different. The father’s word was law, and all activities were around the family rather than the individual(个人). Fred found the food too simple at first. Also, he missed having a car.

       “Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time. In Germany, you walk, but you soon learn to like it.”

       At the same time, in America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his idea. “I suppose I should criticize(批评)American schools,” he said. “It is far too easy by our level. But I have to say that I like it very much. In    Germany we do nothing but study. Here we take part in many outside activities. I think that maybe your schools are better in training for citizens. There ought to be some middle ground between the two.”

    This year ________teenagers will take part in the exchange programme between America and other countries.

    A. twenty-three hundred

    B. thirteen hundred

    C. over three thousand

    D. less than two thousand

    The whole exchange programme is mainly to__________.

    A. help teenagers in other countries know the real America

    B. send students in America to travel in Germany

    C. let students learn something about other countries

    D. have teenagers learn new languages

    Fred and Mike agree that__________.

    A. America food tasted better than German food

    B. German schools were harder than American schools

    C. Americans and Germans were both friendly

    D. There were more cars on the streets in America

    What is particular in American schools is that________.

    A. there is some middle ground between the two teaching buildings

    B. there are a lot of after-school activities

    C. students usually take fourteen subjects in all

    D. students go out side to enjoy themselves in a car

    Which of the following is not true according to this passage?

    A. There were few outside activities in Germany.

    B. Fred had his own car when he was in America.

    C. Subjects seemed easy for Mike in the USA.

    D. All family activities were around the individual in Germany.

    Thirteen, for me, was a challenging year. My parents divorced and I moved to a new town with my father, far from my old family and friends. I was terribly lonely and would cry myself to sleep each night. To ease my sadness, my father purchased an old horse for me at a local auction. I named him Cowboy.

    Cowboy was without a doubt the ugliest horse in the world. But I didn’t care. I loved him beyond all reason. I joined a riding club and suffered rude comments and mean snickers about Cowboy’s looks. I never let on about how I felt, but deep inside, my heart was breaking. The other members rode beautiful, registered horses.

    When Cowboy and I entered the events where the horse is judged on appearance, we were quickly shown the gate. No amount of preparation and love would turn Cowboy into a beauty. My only chance to compete would be in the speed events. I chose the jumping race.?

    One girl named Becky rode a big brown horse in the race events. She always won the blue ribbons.  Needless to say, she didn’t feel threatened when I competed against her at the next show. She didn’t need to. I came in next to last.

    The stinging memory of Becky’s smirks made me determined to beat her. For the whole next month I woke up early every day and rode Cowboy five miles to the arena (赛马场). We practiced running and jumping for hours in the hot sun and then I would walk Cowboy home totally exhausted. All of our hard work didn’t make me feel confident by the time the show came. I sat at the gate and sweated it out while I watched Becky and her horse charge through the course and finish in first place.

    My turn finally came. I put on my hat, rubbed Cowboy’s neck and entered the arena. At the signal, we dashed toward the first fence, jumped it without trouble and raced on to the next one. Cowboy then flew over the second, third and fourth fences like a bird and I turned him toward the finish line. As we crossed the line the crowd was shocked into silence. Cowboy and I had beaten Becky and her fancy horse by two seconds!

    I gained much more than a blue ribbon that day. At thirteen, I realized that no matter what the odds, I’d always come out a winner if I wanted something badly enough to work for it.

    63. The underlined expression "shown the gate" (paragraph 3) most probably means ______.

    A. told how to enter the arena

    B. shown how to make the horse beautiful

    C. removed from the competition early

    D. told to enter the timed-speed events

    64. When the final race finished, nobody cheered because        .

    A. the audience didn’t like Cowboy             B. people envied the writer

    C. the win was unexpected?            D. the writer bad run out of time

    65. Why was the writer not confident of victory?

    A. He was an inexperienced rider.

    B. He had not practiced enough.

    C. He believed he was unpopular with the crowd.

    D. He thought his horse wasn’t so good as the others.

    66. What did the writer learn from his experience?

    A. Life can sometimes be unfair.

    B. Anything is possible if one tries hard enough.

    C. A positive attitude will bring success.

    D. One should not make judgments based on appearance.
