1. Newspapers in Great Britain vary greatly in their ways of carrying the news. There are serious papers for those who want to know about important happenings everywhere, both at home and abroad. There are popular newspapers for those who prefer entertainment to information.
The London newspaper that is best known outside Great Britain is probably the Times. It began in 1785, and has a high reputation for believable news and serious opinions on the news. It calls itself an independent paper, which means that it does not give its support to a particular political party. Its leading articles give the opinions of the editors, not those of the owners of the paper.
Letters to the editor are printed in the newspaper. These parts of the Times are always interesting. Most of the letters are serious subjects. But from time to time there will be long letters on the subject which is not at all serious, perhaps on a new fashion of dress, or the bad manners of the young people, compared with manners of thirty years ago.
【小题1】If you want to get pleasure, please buy yourself        .
A.a serious newspaper
B.foreign newspaper
C.any independent paper
D.a popular newspaper
【小题2】The Times has been famous to outside Great Britain for       years.
A.19B.85C.221D.229
【小题3】The Times is an independent paper because        .
A.it supports no political parties
B.it is not controlled by the British Government
C.it gives special support to all the political parties.
D.the editor’s opinions are not examined by the owners of the paper
【小题4】The writer tells us      in this passage.
A.all kinds of newspapers in Britain
B.all kinds of news in English papers
C.how Times is liked by people
D.why Times is well-known
2. Compassion (同情) is a desire within us to help others. With effort, we can translate compassion into actions. An experience last weekend showed me this is true. I work part-time in a supermarket across from a building for the elderly. These old people are our main customers, and it’s not hard to lose patience over their slowness. But last Sunday, one aged gentleman appeared to teach me a valuable lesson. This untidy man walked up to my register(收款机)with a box of biscuits. He said he was out of cash(现金), had just moved into his room, and had nothing in his cupboards. He asked if we could let him have the food on trust. He promised to repay me the next day.
I couldn’t help staring at him. I wondered what kind of person he had been ten or twenty years before, and what he would be like if luck had gone his way. I had a hurt in my heart for this kind of human soul, all alone in the world. I told him that I was sorry, but store rules didn’t allow me to do so. I felt stupid and unkind saying this, but I valued my job.
Just then, another man, standing behind the first, spoke up. If anything, he looked more pitiable. “Charge it to me,” was all he said.
What I had been feeling was pity. Pity is soft and safe and easy. Compassion, on the other hand, is caring in action. I thanked the second man but told him that was not allowed either. Then I reached into my pocket and paid for the biscuits myself. I reached into my pocket because these two men had reached into my heart and taught me compassion.
【小题1】The aged gentleman who wanted to buy the biscuits ______.
A.promised to obey the store rules
B.forgot to take any money with him
C.hoped to have the food first and pay later
D.could not afford anything more expensive
【小题2】Which of the following best describes the old gentleman?
A.kind and lucky
B.poor and lonely
C.friendly and helpful
D.hurt and disappointed
【小题3】The writer acted upon the store rules because ______.
A.he wanted to keep his present job
B.he felt no pity for the old gentleman
C.he considered the old man dishonest
D.he expected someone else to pay for the old man
【小题4】What does the writer learn from his experience?
A.Wealth is more important than anything else.
B.Helping others is easier said than done.
C.Experience is better gained through practice.
D.Obeying the rules means more than compassion.

4. Once upon a time when my father was in his teens, his father took him to the mosque (清真寺) to pray. My grandfather, it seems, had a habit of keeping his loose change in his shirt pocket. As they prayed side by side, during one of the prostrations (俯伏), the coins fell down onto the carpet.
My grandfather did not notice it. However, a man seated nearby as well as my father noticed the incident. The man reacted fast and picked up the coins and went off into another corner of the mosque.
My father took everything in and as soon as my grandfather finished praying, he told him what had happened. My grandfather having heard just about what happened stopped my dad from telling him who took the money.
Then he went on to tell my dad the following. “If the man has chosen to steal in the mosque, then it must be because his life is too bad. We must not be quick to judge such people,” he said.
Since they owned a grocery shop, my father was told by his father to make sure that every month he should make up a parcel of all the daily necessities required in a household and send it to that person without telling him who sent it.
Wouldn’t this world be a better place to live in if we had such wisdom spreading within our society!
