1. There once was a little boy who wanted to meet God. He knew it was a long trip, so he packed his suitcase with cakes and a six-pack of beer, and started his journey.
When he had gone about three blocks, he met an old woman. She was sitting in the park, staring at some pigeons. The boy sat down next to her and opened his suitcase. He was about to take a drink when he noticed that the old lady looked hungry, so he offered her a cake.
She gratefully accepted it and smiled at him. Her smile was so pretty that the boy wanted to see it again, so he offered her some beer.
Once again, she smiled at him. The boy was delighted. They sat there all afternoon eating and smiling, yet they never said a word.
As it grew dark, the boy got up to leave. Before he had gone more than a few steps, he turned around, ran back to the old woman and gave her a hug. She gave him her biggest smile ever.
When the boy got home, his mother was surprised by the look of joy on his face. She asked him, “What did you do today that made you so happy?” He replied, “I had lunch with God.” But before his mother could respond, he added, “You know what? She’s got the most beautiful smile I’ve ever seen!”
Meanwhile, the old woman returned to her home. Her neighbor was shocked by the look of joy on her face and asked, “What did you do today that made you so happy?”
She replied, “I ate cakes in the park with God.” But before her neighbor responded, she added, “You know, he’s much younger than I expected.”

2. “No, no, no, dear, I want that wrapped in red paper.” A middle-aged woman came through my line and talked to me as if my IQ were that of a grade school kid. When I first started working, it was simply a way to decrease (减少) the time I spent at home and make my parents happy. I never thought that a year and a half later, I would still be at Marshalls, waiting for this woman to get through my line.
I smiled and said, “Oh, that’s no problem.” She bent over the counter to look at the computer and made sure I was doing my job correctly. Her sweater grazed my hand and she smiled like she meant well. I wanted to roll my eyes but instead I just smiled. Ever since I started working here, I’ve tried not to let people like her get to me. And forget judging a book by its cover, because I have been proved wrong time and time again. The wealthy middle-aged women were far ruder than the teenage boys. At first, I was constantly surprised. Now, I tried not to even guess how the person coming near my line was going to act, because it was never the way I imagine.
I never expected people to be so rude and at the same time nice. But for every rude person I saw, at least five pleasant customers came through my line.
“Here you go,” I handed the woman her receipt and hoped her $5 wine glass was wrapped to her liking. “Have a nice day!” I said. And just as I thought I was fed up, the next customer came through. “She had about one more minute and I was going to tell her to get out of line,” she whispered (小声说) to me with a smile.
【小题1】Why did the writer work at Marshalls?

A．To have more time to go out.

B．To make money for the family.

C．To find a way to be happy.

D．To improve her IQ on doing business.

【小题2】What surprised the writer in her work at first?

A．The rich customers behaved themselves well.

B．The young boys could be both rude and nice.

C．Some rich women customers were more impolite.

D．Wealthy women are pleasant customers.

【小题3】It can be inferred that the middle-aged woman .

A．admired the writer for the good service

B．was a customer easy to deal with

C．had patience to do the shopping

D．cared much about the wrapping of goods

【小题4】What the next customer said implied that .

A．she was angry with the middle-aged woman

B．she couldn’t wait one more minute in line

C．she would drive the middle-aged woman away

D．she might get out of the line for a while

3. We all have fond memories of taking a few lazy months off after the stress of A-levels. So now that summer has arrived, let’s take full advantage. It goes without saying that summer vacations are the perfect time to go traveling.
Tickets go up greatly when you turn 26, so make the most of cheaper rates whileyou’re eligible.
Overseas volunteering won’t amaze future employers, but it can be very useful. Finding a reliable (可靠的) company that won’t cheat you is important, as is discovering a program that interests you. There are plenty of websites where you can see other people’s suggestions.
Of course for most of us, money is tight. To avoid overspending you can combine employment and vacation. Hannah Warn, a psychology (心理学) student at the University of Winchester, is spending her summer at Camp America where students enjoy a good time on a summer camp. “Being thrown into something where I don’t really know what to expect is exciting,” she says. “It gives me a chance to experience being away from home in a different way.”
Those with a talent for languages might also consider working abroad as an au pair (互惠工人). The work may be a chance to involve yourself in a new culture while your employer pays most of the bill.
If you have an idea of the sort of career you’d like, getting work experience is wise. In many careers, graduating with only your degree to show for your three or four years just won’t make it. Send applications (申请) off early and to as many places as possible. Make sure you take a well-earned break this summer.
【小题1】It can be inferred from the passage that .

A．students who quit school will pay more for travel

B．students may enjoy lower-price tickets when traveling

C．students should have a longer summer vacation than ever

D．students will be offered part-time jobs during the vacation

【小题2】The underlined part “you’re eligible” in Para. 2 can best be replaced by “ ”.

A．you have more free time	B．you’re tired of school life
C．you enjoy traveling a lot	D．you’re of the right age

【小题3】Which of the following is TRUE according to the example of Hannah Warn?

A．Camp America offers jobs to students.

B．Psychology students are good at saving money.

C．Students had better choose a camp related to their future job.

D．A camp is a good place to combine employment and vacation.

【小题4】According to the passage, who is more likely to get a job after graduation?

A．John, who got excellent academic records during his university years.

B．Lily, who worked abroad as an au pair during summer vacations.

C．Tom, who got working experience related to his future job in college.

D．Mary, who got a degree after studying four years in a famous university.

4. On Friday, June 20th, 29 dogs along with their owners came to Santa Rosa, California. They came there to take part in an unusual competition—one that seeks out and honors the World’s Ugliest Dog. Now in its 26th year, the competition is one of the biggest attractions at the annual Sonoma County Fair.
Among the leading competitors were Cupcake, who was adopted (收养) from a local dog rescue center in January and Shorty, who would have been put to sleep if its owner, Jason, wasn’t kind enough to pick it up. Also competing was 11-year-old veteran Grovie. Described by his owner as short and funny, the Chinese pug is a local resident who has taken part in this contest several times. Then there was 2002 “World’s Ugliest Dog” and “Ring of Champions” winner, Rascal. The 7lbs naturally hairless dog with very few teeth comes from an impressive background (背景). His grandfather, Chi Chi, holds the Guinness World Record for winning the title “World’s Ugliest Dog” seven times!
But all these impressively “ugly” dogs had no chance against Peanut. The two-year-old dog was badly burnt in a fire which caused him to lose his lips, most of his body hair and eyelids. Besides winning the title, $1,500 USD in cash and a large trophy (奖杯), the first time winner also enjoyed an all-expenses-paid trip to New York City where he made scheduled appearances on the Today Show and the Jimmy Kimmel Show.
The competition is a great way to honor these dogs, many of whom get their unusual looks because of human abuse (虐待). But most importantly, it raises awareness about their adoption by showing the world that ugliness does not prevent dogs from becoming very loving pets.
【小题1】Who play the biggest role in the competition mentioned in Para. 1?

A．The dog owners who are good at keeping dogs.

B．The people who have adopted dogs.

C．The dogs that have unusual skills.

D．The dogs that look very ugly.

【小题2】It can be inferred that Jason adopted Shorty probably because he .

A．thought Shorty would win the competition

B．loved Shorty’s appearance very much

C．didn’t want Shorty to be homeless

D．didn’t want Shorty to be killed

【小题3】What can we learn from Rascal’s impressive background?

A．He comes from a family of ugly dogs.

B．Most of his family members are well-known.

C．His grandfather had won the competition seven times.

D．Seven of his family members had won the competition.

【小题4】According to the last paragraph, the competition wants to .

A．show that not all people are kind to dogs

B．call on people to adopt ugly dogs

C．tell people that loving pets usually don’t look good

D．warn people not to judge dogs by appearances

1. We are a primary school in England. Our students start arriving at our playground from about 8:45 a.m. Most of the children live nearby, so they walk to school. But some children have to travel to school by car. Each of the children is dressed in a school uniform (校服) and carries the homework and packed lunch in a schoolbag.
School starts at 8:55 a.m. The teacher on duty blows a whistle (哨子) and the children line up in their class groups. They wait quietly for the teacher to send them to their classrooms. When they arrive at their classrooms, the children empty their schoolbags and put their homework in their boxes. After the children take their seats, the teacher reads out each child’s name in turn. Upon hearing his / her name, the child replies “yes, Mrs. (the teacher’s name)” and the teacher writes down whether the child is in school or not.
And then at 9:10 a.m. the children attend an assembly in our main hall. They sit on the floor in rows with the youngest children at the front and the older children at the back. As the children enter the hall, they listen to music quietly. Each week we have a different musical theme (主题). Besides, the children also listen to stories.
After the assembly, the first lesson of the day begins at 9:30 a.m. Our morning lessons are usually English and Maths. Each of these lessons lasts an hour. Between classes, the children have their morning break from 10:20 a.m. to 10:35 a.m. They eat their snacks (小吃) or play games like football on the playground. At the end of the break, the teacher on duty blows a whistle. The children stand still and wait to be told to line up.
Each day, the children have their lunch break from 12 noon to 1:10 p.m. Most of the children bring their own packed lunches from home. A packed lunch usually consists of sandwiches, fruit, a drink and a packet of crisps. Some children have a school dinner cooked in our school kitchen. While the children are waiting to have lunch or after they have finished eating, they play games on the playground or attend lunch-time clubs. We have teachers on duty, who look after the children during lunch breaks. After the lunch break, the children have afternoon lessons, which continue until 3:15 p.m. when the children go home.
