On Sunday, August 24th, comic book lovers across the world held their breath to watch how much crazy collectors would pay for a rare Superman comic book. Though bids (出价) above the initial asking price of 1 million dollars had been coming in gradually since the copy was placed on the auction site (拍卖网站) eBay on July 14th, things really started to heat up during the final minutes when the price jumped from $2.5 to $2.6 and then $2.7 million, before shooting up to unbelievable 3,207,852 dollars!
This of course was no ordinary Superman comic book, but an edition of the extremely sought-after (很吃香地) No. 1 of Action Comics series — the first publication of the superhero that was born from the creative minds of teenagers Joe Shuster and Jerry Siegel. Though Action Comics No. 1, which depicted a diaper-clad baby Superman lifting furniture, had a print run of 200,000 copies, only about 100 are known to exist today.
While the rarity is certainly a reason for the high price, Stephen Fisher, CEO of , thinks it also has a lot to do with the fact that Superman was the world’s first superhero! Even so, none of the copies have been able to fetch (售得) as much as the most recent one, simply because they have not been as well-preserved. Graded a rare 9 out of 10 by CGC, a third party grading service for comic books, the book is the highest rated copy of Action Comics No. 1 so far. According to CGC officials, the 76-year-old comic book looks and feels as though it has just come off the newsstand (报摊).
That is not surprising given that the original owner, a Virginian man who bought the book for only 10 cents in 1938, had carefully tucked it away (藏起来) in a wooden box for four decades. Fortunately, when he passed away, the book was bought by a string of collectors who all realized it was a rare treasure that needed to be looked after. Before this, the highest price paid for an Action Comics No. 1 had been $2 million for a copy sold by Hollywood actor Nicholas Cage in 2011. Ironically, the two teenagers responsible for creating Superman received just 130 dollars when they sold the rights to the superhero to comic book publisher Detective Comics in 1938.
1. When the Superman comic book was placed on eBay on July 14th, .
A. it attracted no attention at all
B. things started to heat up immediately
C. the bid price didn’t go up very quickly at first
D. people thought it was worth millions of dollars
2. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. Why the comic book is well-preserved.
B. Why the comic book is well worth reading.
C. Why the comic book is worth so much money.
D. Why the comic book has drawn so much attention.
3. When the other collectors got the comic book after the Virginian man, they .
A. all took very good care of it
B. all liked reading it very much
C. didn’t believe it was worth a fortune
D. all kept it in the same way as that man
4. What do we know about the creators of Superman?
A. They didn’t want to sell the rights to a comic book publisher.
B. They knew all along Superman would be the most successful comic book.
C. They were professional comic book writers when they created Superman.
D. They didn’t make much money from creating Superman.

【宁夏银川市第九中学2014一模】A
Many years ago, I pulled a family out of a burning car somewhere in Wyoming. Last week I received a telephone call from a woman who could not stop crying as she told me that one of my stories had saved her son from committing suicide. In closing she called me a hero.
That got me thinking about what a hero is. Was I a hero because I pulled a family from a burning car? If so, how could I be a hero just because I wrote a story that saved someone’s life?
Today I looked up the word “hero” in the dictionary to see exactly what it meant. It read “a person who does something brave” and also “a person who is good and noble”.
That statement impressed me more than the part about being brave. So I thought about something very important. And I remembered what happened to me years ago.
After my marriage of twenty years ended, I was in such a condition. I was within hours trying to get enough courage to end the pain and misery. When I returned home, someone had sent me a card in the mail which told me how much they would appreciate me as a friend. That wonderful card probably saved my life. That person, without even knowing it, saved a life and became a hero.
The many stories I kept writing in the following years saved the life of a teenage boy. In turn that makes the person who sent me the card a double hero. I suppose that is why I fight so hard to help the children now living in orphanages (孤儿院). Most children come out of these institutions with a very hard and bitter attitude against the world. The gifts we send them let them know that they have not been forgotten. Hopefully, most of them will never hurt anyone because of the kindness shown to them by those of us who cared. If it works, we will also become "heroes".
【小题1】The main idea of the passage is _______________.
A. why the writer should be a hero
B. what a hero exactly is
C. whether the writer is a hero
D. that everyone is a hero 【小题2】Why did the woman call the writer a hero at the end of the call?
A. Because he asked her son not to kill himself.
B. Because he saved a family from a burning car.
C. Because his story saved her son’s life.
D. Because he was cute and kind to everybody.
【小题3】What does the underlined word “it” in the last sentence of Paragraph 5 refer to?
A. The wonderful card the writer received.
B. The action of sending the card.
C. The fact that the sender helped the writer.
D. The fact that the sender was a friend of the writer.
【小题4】What’s the writer’s attitude to “brave people”?
A. neutral
B. supportive
C. objective
D. irony

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

A new study of 8,000 young people in the Journal of Health and Social Behavior shows that although love can make adults live healthily and happily，it is a bad thing for young people．Puppy love（早恋）may bring stress for young people and can lead to depression（忧郁症）．The study shows that girls become more depressed than boys，and younger girls are the worst of all．
The possible reason for the connection between love and higher risk of depression for girls is “loss of self”．According to the study，even though boys would say “lose themselves in a romantic relationship”，this “loss of self” is much more likely to lead to depression when it happens to girls．Young girls who have romantic relationships usually like hiding their feelings and opinions．They won’t tell that to their parents．
Dr Marianm Kaufman，an expert on young people problems，says 15% to 20% young people will have depression during their growing．Trying romance often causes the depression．She advises kids not to jump into romance too early．During growing up，it is important for young people to build strong friendships and a strong sense of self．She also suggests the parents should encourage their kids to keep close to their friends，attend more interesting school activities and spend enough time with family．
Parents should watch for signs of depression—eating or mood changes—and if they see signs from their daughters or sons，they need to give help．The good news is that the connection between romance and depression seems to become weak with age．Love will always make us feel young，but only maturity（成熟）gives us a chance to avoid its bad side effects．
【1】What’s the main idea of the passage?
A．Puppy love may bring young people depression．
B．Parents should forbid their children’s love．
C．Romance is a two­edged sword for adults．
D．Romance is good for young people．
【2】Which of the following is more likely to have depression?
A．Young people who have a strong sense of selfishness．
B．Young boys whose parents watch for their behavior．
C．Young girls who always hide their feelings and opinions．
D．Careless parents whose children are deep in love．
【3】What can be inferred from the passage?
A．Lacking love can lead young people to grow up more quickly．B．Early love makes young people keep close to their friends and parents．
C．Parents should help their children to be aware of the signs of depression．
D．The older a woman is，the less likely she seems to lose herself in romance．
【4】What’s the author’s attitude towards puppy love?
A．Confused B．Disapproving

【1】A
