A

    Lillan Hanson, a college junior, expects to graduate in about two years. Mrs. Hanson, a rather unusual student, plans to go on to take more courses after she gets her degree. What makes Mrs. Hanson different from most of her classmates?

    What sets Lillian Hanson apart from the college crowd is her age—73 years. She has been going to college , a few courses at a time, for 27 years.

    When Mrs. Hanson graduated from high school, she went to her local bank and asked for a loan for college tuition and fees. The banker gave her no encouragement. He didn’t think that country girl should be borrowing money to go to college. He thought she should be home doing work in the house or around the farm. So Mrs. Hanson went home and raised a family of nine children instead of going to college. She still lives with her husband on the farm that has been in the family for five generations.

    Mrs. Hanson never forgot her dream of getting a higher education. When her children were grown, she tried again.

    She finds the hardest part of going back to school at her age is to be sitting in class for long periods of time, because she is not as agile as she used to be. Mrs. Hanson often gets up and walks around between classes to keep her joints from getting stiff. At the beginning of a course in using the computer, the other students all gave Mrs. Hanson a warm round of applause when she introduced herself and explained why she was there and what her goals were.

    A 10-year-old boy fatally shot his father Friday, striking him several times as he sat in the front seat of a SUV to pick up the boy from his mother’s home for a weekend visit.

    The incident happened about 3:45 p.m.on a cul-de-sac in the 1700 block of Cedar Cove Court, said Sgt. B. E. Williams of the Harris County Sheriff’s Department.

    An investigation found that Rick James Lohstroh, 41, was shot by his son, who was sitting in the back seat of the man’s Toyota 4-Runner, said Sgt. B. E. Williams of the Harris County Sheriff’s Department. The shooting took place outside the home of Lohstroh’s ex-wife, where the boy lives with his mother and a 7-year-old brother.

    “We’re not certain of anything until we finish our investigation,” Williams said.“The information we have at this time is that the 10-year-old did fire the weapon.”

    The mother and the 7-year-old were inside the house when the shooting occurred, said Williams.

 Williams said the gun belonged to the boy’s mother. After firing shots through the back seat, the boy exited the back of the vehicle and continued to fire at the car.

    The man died on the way to Memorial Herman Hospital. Lohstroh was a doctor at the University of Texas Medical Branch.    The man and woman shared custody(监护)of the children.    Williams said the mother and the boy were still in the home talking to investigators Friday night. Neighbors described the family as being quiet and keeping to themselves.

    Justin Gray, 17, was walking in the neighborhood when he heard gunshots.“We’ve had a suicide(自杀)in this neighborhood once, but never anything like this,”Gray said.

45.The best title for the news should be     .

    A.A Boy Shoot His Father            B.Shooting Kill a Father

    C.An Unbelievable Tragedy           D.A Ten-Year-Old Boy’s Cruelty

    A.The father is not responsible for the boy.

    B.The family don’t like associating with their neighbours.

    C.The boy lives with Rick James Lohstroh . D.The boy has no brothers or sisters.

47.What can we infer from the report?

    A.The tragedy happened because the boy had seen too many films showing violence.

    B.The boy hated it that his father deserted his mother, so he killed him.

    C.Such things often occurred in this neighbourhood.

   A.is clear   B.can’t be made out C.is not known  D.is quite simple

 Read a whole book in English? Me?

Yes, you. Believe it or not, that may be easier than you think. Not all classics are too difficult or complicated. So you’re not limited to the simplified versions. And the easier books are not all for children.

  Books in their original versions may send you to the dictionary. And you might not understand everything you read. But reading one from cover to cover will give you a real sense of accomplishment.

The key is to find the right books. Let’s take a look at these.

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (C.S. Lewis)

  Stepping into an old wardrobe, four English schoolchildren find themselves in the magical world of Narnia. On this delightful land, they find friends among the many talking creatures.

  The children soon discover, however, that Narnia is ruled by the White Witch. Edmund, one of the children, falls under her power. Who can free Narnia? Only Aslan, the great and noble lion. He alone knows the Deeper Magic. But the children themselves must help fight the battle against the White Witch and those who serve her.

The Old Man and the Sea (Ernest Hemingway)

  Santiago, an old Cuban fisherman, hasn’t caught any fish in more than 80 days. Sailing far out from land, the old man hooks an enormous fish. That begins an agonizing three day battle. First he struggles against the great fish. Then he must fight off the sharks that circle the little boat and threaten to eat his fish. Exhausted and bleeding, the old man arrives back at shore. But his fish, his beautiful fish . . .

Hemingway won the Nobel Prize for this superb story of strength and courage, of victory and regret.

A Wrinkle in Time (Madeleine Lingle)

  Meg’s father, a U.S. government scientist, has been missing for many months. He had been experimenting with time travel when he mysteriously disappeared.

  Now Meg, her little brother Charles Wallace and her friend Calvin will try to rescue him. But first they must outwit the forces of evil they encounter on their journey through time and space. Can they find Meg’s father before it’s too late?

  This novel is more than just a science fiction adventure. It’s an exploration of the nature of our universe.

The Pearl (John Steinbeck)

  One day Kino, a poor Mexican pearl diver, finds a magnificent pearl. With it he dreams of buying a better life, new clothes and schooling for his son. Instead, it brings only evil. His wife pleads with him to get rid of it. "No," says Kino. "I will have my chance. I am a man." But when he kills a man who is trying to steal the pearl, Kino and his wife must run for their lives.

  This tale of dreams, justice and the power of greed is told simply and beautifully.

The Long Winter (Laura Ingalls Wilder)

  It’s winter, 1880—1881, on America’s northern prairies. Mr. and Mrs. Ingalls and their four girls stay near the kitchen stove to keep warm. Heavy snowstorms cut them off even from neighbors. With the trains stopped, no supplies can reach the town. Food and fuel are running out. Day after day the girls must grind wheat for bread and twist hay to burn. At times they nearly lose the battle to keep their spirits up.

This story provides a fascinating glimpse into the life of early American settlers.

49. In The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, the White Witch is probably _____.

A. an evil woman with magic power  B. a friendly woman with magic power

C. a delightful talking creature     D. a powerful lion

50. The underlined word "outwit" in the passage probably means ______.

A. get rid of  B. take advantage of  C. beat by being cleverer  D. make the most of

51. Which book deals with history?

A. The Pearl. B. The Old Man and the Sea. C. A Wrinkle in Time.  D. The Long Winter.

52. A Wrinkle in Time is different from other books mentioned in the passage in that _____.

A. it is not a sciencefiction          B. it tells a true story

C. it provides some scientific knowledge  D. it tells the battle between justice and evil

D

 Last week, I bought an alarm system(报警系统) for about $ 450. It consisted of a control unit with three other small units. I put the control unit in the sitting room and fastened the other units by the front door, back door and living-room windows. The instructions told us to choose three numbers, so we chose 491, the last three numbers of our telephone number.

Now I must explain how the alarm works:

1. There is a power siren(警报器) in the control unit. It makes a very loud noise.

2. Each of the small units sends out beams(光束) or rays in different directions. If anything moves, it breaks a beam. This sends a signal to the control unit. The siren makes a noise that you can hear 50 meters away.

3. When we go to bed, I press the three buttons numbered 4, 9 and 1. Then we have 30 seconds to get out of the room before the alarm starts to work.

That might I slept soundly because I was sure that no burglar(夜贼) could get into our house. However, at about 2:10a.m., I woke up and heard the siren(警报).

“There must be a burglar in the house,” Mary said. “What shall we do?”

“I’ll go and see who’s there,” I said. “Stay here. Don’t make a noise.”

I went downstairs quietly. When I reached the living room, I switched on my torch and looked round the room. Then I turned the light on. I switched the siren off and searched the rooms downstairs. There was nothing wrong except that the back door was unlocked. I locked it, re-set the alarm and went back to bed.

About an hour later, the alarm started again. I jumped out of bed, fell over a chair in the dark and bumped into the bedroom door. Mary woke up and started hitting me with a torch. “Hey! Wait a minute!” I whispered. “It’s only me. I’ m going downstairs to see what’s wrong.”

I went down into the living room and listened for a moment. The only sound I could hear was the siren. I turned on the light and then switched the siren off. As I did so, I glanced across at the curtains in front of the windows. I saw a house lizard (蜥蜴) disappear behind the curtains.

“Oh!” I said to myself. “That’s our burglar.”

When the lizard moved, it started the siren. I guessed that the alarm had been made in Europe, where there are no house lizards.

Well, I won’t finish this story but if you want an alarm system free of charge, let me know. I’ll send you ours. We bought a dog this morning. It knows the difference between a lizard and a burglar.

53. The writer bought an alarm system to     .

    A.make sure that he got up early every day

    B.warn him when there were lizards in his house

    C.frighten burglars and tell him that somebody had got into the house

    D.make Mary feel safe to live in the large room

54. The purpose of the three units was to      .

A.send a message to the control unit and start the siren

    B.sound their own sirens when the control unit told them to

    C.check that the control unit worked properly all the time

    D.give them enough light

55. If the writer set the alarm and remained in the room for more than half a minute,      .

    A.nothing would happen             B.the control unit would not work

    C.the siren would make a noise        D.the dog would bark

56. The purpose of the writer in writing the passage is to       .

    A.tell us that the alarm system doesn’t work

    B.tell us an interesting experience       C.show us how the alarm system works

    D.make it clear that he wants to give away his alarm system

Now video games are very popular among the school students. Some students are so interested in the game that they spend all day playing. Sometimes they forget to do their homework and some even play truant. Each time they have to pay much money. In order to play video games they often ask their parents for more money, some often borrow money from other students, some even steal money from their classmates, which have brought out every bad effects.

Too much video game playing needs time, money and energy. The owners benefit a lot but it’s not good for the students’ study and health.

I do hope measures will be taken by the government to prevent students from playing video games.
