    Some disabled people use a special card when they park their cars. These are called disabled placards, which are removable signs that can be hung from the rear-view(后视) mirror of a car. These placards are only supposed to be for disabled people.

           These placards are meant to help disabled people in a number of ways. They allow the person to park in special parking spaces. They can also be used when disabled people are being dropped off or picked up. Disabled people can even use them to park without having to pay.

           Parking officials think that some people are cheating. Not all people who have these placards are disabled. Today, one in sixteen drivers in California carries the sign. There are a lot more people who have disabled placards today than ten years ago. An official from the DMV(加州车辆管理局) says that there are many reasons for the increase. As people get older, they may develop health problems and need to have one. There are also other reasons why more drivers have them today. Finally, there are a number of people who have them that should not.

           Last year the DMV cancelled more than 25,000 permits. They found that lots of people who had the disabled placards had died. These permits are no longer valid.

    Some people are worried that the system is being abused. They are worried that access to the program could be limited because of the misuse. More rules could make it harder for people with real disabilities to get these placards.

    What do we know about placards?

       A. They are all used by disabled people.

       B. They are cards designed by disabled people.

       C. They can help disabled people park their cars.

       D. They allow disabled people to drive anywhere.

    The DMV canceled many permits because_________.

       A. the number of old people is growing

       B. the number of disabled people is on the rise

       C. they want to make it harder for people to get them

       D. some people who have the placards have died

    What can people do with the placards?

       A. Drivers can use them when picking up disabled people

       B. Disabled people can pay for parking with them.

       C. Drivers can use them to drive their cars.

       D. People can have access to DMV with them.

    What does the third paragraph mainly talk about?

       A. The reasons why disabled placards are also popular among drivers.

       B. Some healthy people also use the disabled placards.

       C. The number of disabled placard users had increased.

       D. More reasons for drivers to use disabled placards.

    We learn from the passage that_________.

       A. disabled placards will be stopped by the government

       B. some people will be punished for breaking the law

       C. some disabled people will be forbidden to use disabled placards

       D. some rules will be made related to disabled placards

    Once upon a time in a land far away, there was a wonderful old man who loved everything：animals, spiders, insects...

    One day while walking through the woods the nice old man found a cocoon（茧）of a butterfly. He took it home. A few days later, a small opening appeared; he sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could go no farther. Then the man decided to help the butterfly, so he took a pair of scissors and snipped off the remaining bit of the cocoon.

    The butterfly then emerged（露出）easily.

    But it had a swollen body and small, shriveled wings. The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that, at any moment, the wings would enlarge and expand to be able to support the body, which would contract（收缩） in time. Neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around with a swollen body and shriveled wings.

    It never was able to fly.

    What the man in his kindness and haste did not understand was that the restricting cocoon and the struggle required for the butterfly to get through the tiny opening were Nature's way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly into its wings so that it would be ready for flight once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon.

     Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If we were allowed to go through our life without any obstacles, it would cripple us. We would not be as strong as what we could have been.

    And we could never fly.

    In the story, what happened to the cocoon of the butterfly after the man’s help?

    A. The cocoon was broken and the butterfly died.                   

    B. The man helped the butterfly out of the cocoon more easily

        C. The butterfly couldn’t fly for ever normally.                              

        D. The butterfly should spend more time practicing flying.

    What would have happened to the butterfly without the old man’s help?

        A. It would have died in the cocoon.       

        B. It would have become a true butterfly.

        C. It would have been strong enough to go farther.

        D. It would have stopped struggling through the cocoon.

    The underlined word “cripple” in Paragraph 7 probably means ______.

        A. disable              B. climb                C. enable               D. beat

    What can we learn from this story?

        A. Man can never go against nature.

    B. It’s necessary to live with some difficulties.

    C. One cannot help others without thinking twice.

    D. Mankind should take good care of insects.

         Long ago, near the frontier lived an old man. One day he found his horse   1 _ (miss). It was said that the horse was seen running outside the border of the country.
