A
Being a doctor was the aim of my life. I chose science in high school. It was far away from my home city and traveling alone every day wasn’t considered possible. It was not in my fate to be a doctor, so the second choice I considered was to become a teacher.
I always loved helping my younger brother and sister with their studies which in turn helped me in mine. The love and care provided by my teachers and the support of my parents made me what I am today. It has been 24 years, but each day is as new and fresh as the first. Each day has so many memories.
Students look so lovely when they share their problems with me whether they are about studies or about home. I learned a lot in the process of solving their problems. I always wanted my students to feel comfortable with me, take me as one of them and not treat me like a stranger. I gave my students what they needed and did not force them to do anything. Meeting with old students makes me feel alive. The brightness in their eyes gives me happiness and it keeps me going. Teaching has given me pleasure and satisfaction.
Life should be all about gaining and giving away knowledge. Parents should particularly pay attention to their children exploring their hidden talents. They should take proper care of their diet as they depend on them and if not it will inhibit(抑制) the children’s abilities. Learn about your kids; take care of them and their activities. Make them read books as it leads to creativity.

After a couple of days out of town, Denise Thompson arrived at her Kilkenny home on Sunday afternoon to a bizarre scene: her front lawn was gone.
Neighbors had noticed a white truck and trailer(拖车) at the home over the weekend —and the replacement (取代) of green grass with dark brown soil — but thought nothing of it, thinking it was a routine (日常的) landscaping job.
Thompson stayed home from work on Monday, talking to her puzzled insurance company about a $10,000 problem, and hoping that someone realized their mistake. When that didn’t happen, she turned to the news media.
By late Tuesday, The Journal’s story had become widespread, with 130,000 web hits and links from The Drudge Report and The New Yorker websites.
Thompson’s patience brought good results minutes after the story first appeared. The landscaper hadn’t seen the news, but came to her house at 7:30 pm on Monday to drop off a business card and a note.
“He was really apologetic about it,” Thompson said. “I’m not happy about it of course, but I am OK that he came forward finally and did apologize for it and is willing to fix it.”
Patrick Kukanu, owner of Kupak Landscapes Ltd., said it was a mistake. “Our BobCat guy was supposed to be t hree blocks down,” Kukanu said. “He had the wrong address.”
When the company realized what had happened on Saturday, Kukanu said several attempts were made to contact the homeowner or neighbors. The company offered to replace the lawn immediately on Tuesday, but that will wait.
“It’s just an honest mistake,” Kukanu said. “It’s an error and we’ll gladly correct it.”
8. The underlined word “bizarre” in the first paragraph probably means “ ”.
A. common
B. beautiful
C. strange
D. moving
9. What happened when Thompson was away from home?
A. Her lawn was destroyed and covered with soil.
B. A truck ran into her house and caused huge losses.
C. A thief entered her house and stole a lot of money.
D. Her neighbor used her truck without her permission.
10. What can we learn from the text?
A. The insurance company will pay Thompson a lot of money.
B. Thompson’s neighbors knew nothing about what happened.
C. Thompson wouldn’t forgive the landscaper for his mistake.
D. Thom pson’s story attracted a lot of interest on the Internet.
11. Why did the landscaper come to visit Thompson on Monday?
A. To make an apology to Thompson.
B. To leave a business card and a note.
C. To finish his landscaping work.
D. To replace the lawn immediately.
D
Here’s an easy choice: would you rather spend 4 minutes chatting to a good friend or to a complete stranger?
It’s safe to say most of us would choose our friend. With friends we can “be ourselves”, which means expressing our feelings freely. The problem with strangers is that we have to make much effort: psychologists (心理学家) call it “impression management”. We control our behavior more tightly and our impression management starts being very active. But according to recent research, there are hidden benefits to this effort and a lesson for all of us about how we should treat those we know well.
The researchers had participants (参与者) predict how pleasurable it would be to chat with their friends and a complete stranger.
They then had a quick chat and rated how good they felt afterwards. What they found was that people enjoyed talking to their friends less than they predicted. On the other hand, they had more fun talking to a stranger than they had predicted.
So what’s going on here? How can people be having more fun than they imagine talking to complete strangers and less with the person they are in a long-term relationship with?
What the researchers found was that it comes down to whether or not you’re making an effort. Sometimes when w e talk to our friends we don’t make much effort to entertain them or to present ourselves in the best light. But we do tend to make much effort with strangers.
In a follow-up study the researchers told participants to make an effort with their friends and then their enjoyment of the social communication improved in line with their predictions. This suggests that we can all have more fun with our friends if we make an effort.
12. When we talk with strangers, we tend to .
A. hide our feelings
B. control our behavior
C. express our feelings freely
、D. judge their first impression of us
13. What did the researchers find?
A. It was hard to talk with strangers.
B. Most people liked to talk with friends.
C. People had more fun talking with strangers.
D. Most people preferred to talk with strangers.
14. What can we conclude from the last paragraph?
A. Our friends are easier to entertain.
B. We don’t have much fun talking with friends.
C. We need make much effort talking with strangers.
D. We can have more fun with our friends through our effort.
15. The main purpose of the text is to let us learn about .
A. how to communicate with strangers
B. the benefits of talking to strangers
C. the way we should treat our friends
D. how to improve our communication skills

Basketball is so popular that almost every country in Asia, Europe and America plays the sport. 16 I have seen people playing indoors and outdoors so many times, but it is mostly played outdoors along the streets. I will list some of the top reasons why people love to play basketball.
Basketball is affordable (支付得起的). All you need is a ball and a basketball court. 17 You can have different choices when it comes to the prices. On the other hand, finding a basketball court is not a problem either. There are lots of schools and communities who open their gates for individuals who want to play the game.
18 If you are unable to use the courts in both public and private schools, there are many social communities who provide them. Some local governments try to set up public sports areas for everyone to enjoy. If you want to play, all you need to do is to go to the nearest basketball court available in your community or your local basketball club.
Basketball enables you to play with 5 or more friends all at the same time. 19 In this case you may get tired and bored when waiting for your turn. In basketball, you can have great chances of playing all the time.
If you want to learn more about the sport and improve your basketball skills, you can attend basketball camps. 20 These camps provide excellent tutors who can help you improve your shooting, dribbling (带球), and other basketball abilities.
A. Basketball can be played anywhere.
B. A basketball does not cost much.
C. It is always fun to meet strong-minded people.
D. They are available and nearly open for everyone.
E. These rules are very simple and easy to understand.
F. Almost every person knows how to play the sport.
G. However, many other sports can be played only by two or four people.
