    I'm writing this letter slowly because I know you can't read fast. We don't live where we did when you left home. Your dad read in the newspaper that most accidents happened within 20 miles from our home, so we moved.
    I won't be able to send you the address because the last family that lived here took the house numbers when they moved so that they wouldn't have to change their address. This place is really nice. It even has a washing machine. I'm not sure it works so well though: last week I put a load in and pulled the chain (拉链) and haven't seen them since. The weather isn't bad here. It only rained twice last week; the first time for three days and the second time for four days. About that coat you wanted me to send you, your uncle Stanley said it would be too heavy to send in the mail with the buttons on so we cut them off and put them in the pockets.
    John locked his keys in the car yesterday. We were really worried because it took him two hours to get me and your father out. Your sister had a baby this morning, but I haven't found out what it is yet. The baby looks just like your brother.
    Uncle Ted fell in a whiskey vat（桶）last week. Some men tried to pull him out, but he fought them off playfully and drowned. We had him cremated（焚化）and he burned for three days.
    Three of your friends went off a bridge in a pick-up trunk. Ralph was driving. He rolled down the window and swam to safety. You other two friends were in back. They drowned because they couldn't get the tail gate down.
    There isn't much more news at this time. Nothing much has happened.
    Love,
    Mom
    P.S. I was going to send you some money but the envelope was already sealed.

    “Imagine you are walking along the road. Suddenly you fall over and all the passers-by burst into laughter. You feel very　 1　 and think the world is laughing at you .

    Recently, a  professor of philosophy in the United States has written a book called MoneyandtheMeaningofLife. He has discovered that how we deal with money in our day­to­day life has more meaning than we usually think. One of the exercises he asked his students to do is to keep a record of every penny they spend for a week. From the way they spend their money, they can see what they really value in life.
    He says that our relation with others often becomes clearly defined when money enters the picture. You might have wonderful friendship with somebody and you think that you have a very good friend. But you will know him only when you ask him to lend you some money. If he does, it brings something to the relationship that seems stronger than ever before. Or it can suddenly weaken the relationship if he doesn't. This person may say that he has a certain feeling, but if it is not carried out in the money world, there is something less real about it.
    Since money is so important to us, we consider those who possess a lot of it to be very important. The author interviewed some millionaires in researching his book.
    Question: What is the most surprising thing you have discovered about being rich?
    Answer: The most surprising thing is why people give me so much respect. I am nothing. I do not know much. All I am is rich.
    People just have an idea of making more and more money, but what is it for? In his book, the professor uncovered an important need in modern society: to bring back the idea that money is an instrument rather than the end. Money plays an important role in the material world, but expecting money to give happiness may be missing the meaning of life.
    小题1:The author seems to believe that asking your friend to lend you some money ________.
    A．is a good way to test your friendship
    B．will do harm to your friendship
    C．will strengthen your friendship
    D．is a good way to break off your friendship
    小题2:What can we learn about the millionaire from his answer in the interview?
    A．He does not feel that he is well educated.
    B．He does not think that he is a very important person.
    C．He does not think that being rich is worth so much attention.
    D．He does not consider himself to be very successful.
    小题3:What does the American professor of philosophy want to explain in his book?
    A．Money is an end.B．Money is a means.
    C．Money is everything.D．Money is unimportant.
    小题4:Which of the following might the author disagree with?
    A．Money is important in modern society.
    B．The meaning of life does not completely lie in money.
    C．Wealth will surely bring the owner happiness
    D．Happiness is not necessarily the result of wealth.

    Dear Bridge of Hope supporters,
    July 2010 was a productive month for the teachers at BOH. Marilyn traveled to Liberia and helped Kathleen Ngenda with her teacher training program on Basic Adult Literacy. During the eight-day training, she helped the teachers learn to pronounce, spell and write correctly. They are currently working on personal sets of cards and lists so that they can teach this concept to students in the fall. Kathleen plans on two trips back to the school to monitor teachers in their teaching.
    Marilyn found a very dedicated （投入的）and enthusiastic group of elementary teachers who are focused on bettering themselves as educators. BOHUSA will offer financial support for their further educational studies this fall. Our goal is to have all staff be certified by the end of 2013.
    The Liberian government recommends a C-certificate for teachers of elementary students, which can be obtained in one year of education classes (taken on Saturdays).
    There is a great need to add seventh and eighth grade classrooms and a library. There is actually no room, however, and so we need to add a second floor. Currently the ground floor houses the church and the school uses this space for daily services. The first floor would give space for three more classrooms, in addition to a large reading room and computer labs. About $40,000 to 50,000 is required to meet the educational needs.
    If you would like to contribute to this building project, please make out your check to:
    Bridge of Hope
    12002 Arnold Rd.
    Orrville, Ohio 44667
    Bridge of Hope Foundation is a non-profit organization. You do not have to pay tax on your contributions.
    小题1:Marilyn went to Liberia to ______.
    A．take a tripB．visit a school
    C．take training classesD．help train teachers
    小题2:What do we know about the school from Paragraph 4?
    A．It needs repairB．It needs expansion
    C．It has no office.D．It has an old library,
    小题3:The purpose of the letter is to _________.
    A．show the achievements of BOH
    B．thank BOH supporters for their concern
    C．raise money for an educational project
    D．call people’s attention to education in Liberia

    It seems that some people go out of their way to get into trouble．That's more or less what happened the night that Nashville Police Officer Floyd Hyde was on duty．
    “I was on the way to a personal—injury accident in West Nashville．As I got onto Highway 40，blue lights and sirens(警笛)going，I fell in behind a gold Pontiac Firebird that suddenly seemed to take off quickly down the highway．The driver somehow flustered at the sight of me．He was going more than a hundred miles an hour and began passing cars on the shoulder．”
    But Hyde couldn’t go after him．Taking care of injured people is always more important than worrying about speeders，so the officer had to stay on his way to the accident．But he did try to keep the Firebird in sight as he drove，hoping another nearby unit would be able to step in and stop the speeding car．As it．turned out，keeping the Firebird in sight was not that difficult．Every turn the Pontiac made was the very turn the officer needed to get to the accident scene．
    Hyde followed the Pontiac all the way to his destination。At that point he found another unit had already arrived at the accident scene．His help wasn't needed．Now he was free to try to stop the driver of the Firebird，who by this time had developed something new to panic about．
    “Just about that time，”Hyde says，“I saw fire coming out from under that car，with blue smoke and oil going everywhere．He'd blown his engine．Now he had to stop．”
    “After I arrested him，I asked him why he was running。He told me he didn't have a driver's license．”
    That accident cost the driver of the Firehird plenty-a thousand dollars for the new engine-not to mention the charges for driving without a license，attempting to run away, and dangerous driving．
    小题1:The meaning of“flustered”in Paragraph 2 is related to        .
    A．shameB．hateC．angerD．fear
    小题2:Why did the driver of the Firebird suddenly speed down the highway?
    A．Because he was racing with another driver on the road．
    B．Because he realized he had to hurry to the accident scene．
    C．Because he thought the police officer wanted to stop him．
    D．Because he wanted to overtake other cars on the shoulder．
    小题3:Which of the following statements is true?
    A．Someone else was taking care of the injured person．
    B．The Pontiac reached its destination at the accident scene．
    C．Hyde knew where he was going by following the right car．
    D．The policeman was running after a speeder on Highway 40．
    小题4:The driver of the Firebird        .
    A．took a wrong turn on the wayB．had some trouble with his car
    C．was stopped by the police officer D．paid for the expenses of the accident
    小题5:What is probably the best title for the article?

    Located along California’s San Andreas Fault, the city of San Francisco is likely to take precautions(预防，防备) in the event of the next big earthquake.
    According to a New York Times report, emergency planners in San Francisco are not only thinking of human evacuation(撤离，疏散) plans in the event of an earthquake, but also of how to care for pets during a natural disaster. Ideally, the planners will be able to train pet-disaster responders who work to evacuate dogs, cats and other household pets from the disaster site to one of the 125 temporary animal shelters that will be set up or, if the pet is injured, it will be brought to an emergency animal medical unit where there will be people on hand to tend to the pet’s injury. The city’s “no-pets-left-behind” policy results from the great number of pet deaths during the destruction of Hurricane Katrina.
    As emergency responders arrived to rescue people isolated in their homes during Katrina, hurricane victims were told that they could not take their pets along with them when evacuating; thus, many pet owners were forced to make the heart-breaking decision to save themselves while leaving their pets behind to perhaps meet their deaths.
    Since then, the U.S. has passed the Pets Evacuation and Transportation Standards Act of 2006, allocating federal funds for animal disaster planning projects. Yet, not all counties are as progressive as San Francisco has been in the effort to protect pets in the event of a natural disaster. Pets are after all, a large part of San Francisco’s population — overnumbering the number of school age children in the city.
    Over the last three years, San Francisco has received $350,000 in federal funds designated to animal disaster preparedness efforts in order to protect animals in the case of a disaster such as an earthquake. The city is still working on obtaining $300,000 to pay for an emergency animal unit. Until then, animal lovers in San Francisco will continue to work to ensure that pets are never an afterthought when it comes to rescues during earthquakes or other life threatening situations.
    小题1:We learn from the second paragraph that ______.
    A．emergency planners in San Fransico only consider human evacuation plans in a disaster
    B．emergency planners in San Fransico only think about pet evacuation plans during a disaster
    C．the safety of both humans and pets in a disaster is taken seriously
    D．emergency medical units will be used only for humans
    小题2:What do we know about Hurricane Katrina?
    A．A great number of pets died during Hurricane Katrina.
    B．San Francisco’s “no-pets-left-behind” policy had been made before Hurricane Katrina.
    C．The pet owners chose to sacrifice themselves in order to save their pets.
    D．Emergency responders failed to rescue the hurricane victims.
    小题3:Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the passage?
    A．San Fransisco has made great effort to protect pets in a natural disaster.
    B．The number of school age children in San Fransisco is smaller than that of pets.
    C．The U.S. government has spent money on animal disaster planning projects.
    D．All the countries are in the effort to protect pets in a natural disaster.
    小题4:The underlined word “designated” in the last paragraph most probably means ______.
    A．loanedB．allocatedC．replacedD．obtained
    小题5:What’s the main idea of this passage?
    A．How to take precautions in the earthquake.
    B．Human evacuation plans in the earthquake.
    C．Taking steps to care for pets during a natural disaster.
    D．How to train pets to escape from a disaster.
