It was 3:21 a.m. when nine-year-old Glenn Kreamer awoke to the smell of burning. Except for the cracking(爆裂声) of flames somewhere below there was not a sound in the two-storey house at Baldwin Long Island.
With his father away on night duty at a local factory, Glenn was worried about the safety of his mother, his sister Karen, 14 and his 12-year-old brother Todd. He ran downstairs through the smoke-filled house to push and pull at Karen and Todd until
they sat up. Then he helped each one through the house to the safety of the garden. There, his sister and brother, taking short and quick breaths and coughing, fell down onto the lawn.
The nine-year-old boy raced back into the house and upstairs to his mother's room. He found it impossible to wake her up. Mrs. Kreamer, a victim of the smoke, was unconscious(昏厥的), and there was nobody to help Glenn carry her to the garden. But the boy remained calm and, as a fireman said later, "acted with all the self-control of a trained adult."
On the bedroom telephone, luckily still working, Glenn called his father and, leaving Mr. Kreamer to telephone the fire brigade and ambulance service, got on with the task of saving his mother.
First he filled a bucket with water from the bathroom and threw water over his mother and her bed. Then, with a wet cloth around his head he went back to the garden. He could hear the fire engine coming up, but how would the firemen find his mother in the smoke-filled house where flames had almost swallowed up the ground floor?
Grasping firmly a ball of string(线) from the garage, Glenn raced back into the house and dashed upstairs to his mother's room. Tying one end of the string to her hand, he ran back, laying out the string as he went, through the hall and back out into the garden.
Minutes later he was telling fire chief John Coughlan, "The string will lead you to mother." Mrs. Kreamer was carried to safety as the flames were breaking through her bedroom floor.
24. Why did Glenn run downstairs first?
A. He wanted to find out what was happening.
B. He was worried about his mother's safety.
C. He wanted to save his sister and brother.
D. He went to see if his father had come back from work.
25. Who called the fire brigade and ambulance service?
A. Glenn.
B. Glenn's father.
C. Glenn's sister.
D. Glenn's neighbor.
26. Glenn saved his family because _______.
A. his father had taught him to do so on the phone
B. he had learned something about first aid
C. he had dealt with the emergency (突发事件) calmly and wisely
D. he had followed his mother's instruction
27. This passage is likely to appear in________.
A. a native newspaper
B. a scientific report
C. a travel journal
D. a fashion magazine
C
The world's richest man might seem to have it all, but Bill Gates has one regret. The self-made billionaire said he felt stupid for not knowing any foreign languages.
Speaking in his third Ask Me Anything question-and-answer session for online forum Reddit(红迪网), the Microsoft founder said that he wished he spoke French, Arabic or Chinese.
He said, "I took Latin and Greek in high school and got As and I guess it helps my vocabulary. I keep hoping to get time to study one of these—probably French because it is the easiest. I did Duolingo for a while but didn't keep it up."
Gates, who is worth $79.3 billion, praised Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg for surprising an audience in Beijing when he spoke fluent Chinese. "Mark Zuckerberg amazingly learned Chinese and did a Q & A with Chinese students—unbelievable, isn't it?" he said.
This isn't the first time for Gates to admit his regret over language. He also showed his habits at home and personal insights.
Last February, Gates said he likes to do the dishes himself—to his own special standards every night and also told the interviewer that his wife, Melinda, would likely want Samuel L. Jackson to play her husband in a biopic(传记片).
He also admitted that he would pick up a $100 bill if he found it on the street.
As he took the top spot on Forbes(福布斯) 28th Annual Billionaires list last year for the fourth time, he said he is pretty basic when it comes to spending on clothes and food, but that he enjoys investing in shoes and rackets(球拍) when he plays tennis.
When asked a life lesson he had to learn the hard way, the billionaire said staying up too late is a habit he is still trying to break. "Don't stay up too late even if the book is really exciting. You will regret it in the morning. Pam still working on this problem," he said.
28. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. An Interview with Bill Gates
B. How Bill Gates Succeeded
C. Bill Gates' Regret
D. The Richest Billionaire
29. The underlined part in paragraph 8 may actually mean that .
A. it is important to lay a good foundation of life
B. food and clothing are basic needs for people's life
C. he never cares about buying food and clothing
D. he doesn't spend much money on food and clothes
30. What advice did Bill Gates give?
A. Do the dishes yourself at home.
B. Be a good language learner.
C. Avoid staying up too late.
D. Pick up the $100 bills in the streets.
31. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. Bill Gates is also the founder of Facebook.
B. Bill Gates was good at learning languages in high school.
C. Bill Gates topped the list of Forbes 28 times.
D. Bill Gates' wife wants Samuel to play a game with Gates.
D
Throw out the bottles and boxes of drugs in your house. A new theory suggests
that medicine could be bad for your health. This new theory argues that healing (the
process of becoming healthy and strong again) is at our fingertips: we can be healthy
by doing Reiki on a regular basis.
Supporters of medical treatment argue that medicine should be trusted since it
is effective and scientifically proven. They say that there is no need for spiritual
methods such as Reiki, Yoga, TaiChi. These waste our time, something that is quite
precious in our material world. There is medicine that can kill our pain and x-rays
that show us our broken bones. We must admit that these methods are very effective
in the examples that they provide. However, there are some "everyday complaints" such
as back pains, headaches, which are treated currently with medicine. When you have
a headache, you take an Aspirin; when you cannot sleep, you take Xanax without thinking
of the side effects of these. When you use these pills for a long period, you become
dependent on them; you cannot sleep without them. We pay huge amounts of money but
never get better. How about a safer and more economical way of healing? When doing
Reiki to yourself, you do not need anything except your energy so it is very economical.
Also, there are no side effects and it is scientifically explained.
They also claim that serious illnesses such as HIV/AIDS and cancer cannot be
treated without drugs. They think so because these patients spend the rest of their
lives in the hospital taking medicine. How can Reiki make these people healthy again?
It is very unfortunate that these patients have to live in the hospital losing their
hair and weight because of the side effects of the medicine they take. Actually, instead of drugs which are expensive and have many side effects, you can use your energy to overcome the hardships of life, find an emotional balance, leave the stress of everyday life and let go of the everyday worries.
Some people may still hold that in our material world, everything depends on time. How would it be possible to find time to do Reiki? In fact, Reiki does not require more than 15 minutes of our time. It is less time consuming than medicine if we think of all the time we spend taking medicine for some complaints and taking some more for the side effects as well.
32. The author's attitude towards Reiki is ______.
A. disinterested
B. serious
C. positive
D. grateful
33. The underlined word in Paragraph 2 "side" means________?
A. negative
B. wonderful
C. huge
D. extreme
34. According to the passage, which of the statements is correct?
A. Reiki will soon become the most popular exercise around the world.
B. Reiki is an effective treatment but not scientifically explained.
C. Reiki can make people less dependent on drugs.
D. Reiki is a kind of cheap drug but works well.
35. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. A New Way of Treating Illness
B. Health and Healing at Your Fingers
C. The Advantages and Disadvantages of Reiki
D. The Advantages and Disadvantages of Medicine

选项中有两项为多余选项。

36 One of the best things you can possibly do is to start your own club. It's great fun especially if you are the sort of person who feels there's never anything to do during the school holidays.
The first thing you need to come up with is an idea for your club. 37 Pets,
clothes, pop music or dancing groups, sports, making things? The list is endless. Next you need some friends to be in your club with you. 38 All you need is three or four other people who are interested in the same thing as you.
39 You should all sit down somewhere together with lots of pieces of paper and write down every name you can think up. That'll keep you busy for ages.
At your first meeting you should make up a rule book. And the first rule should be no grown-ups or little/big brothers or sisters! The best clubs are always secret! Now you have just about everything you need, except membership cards. These are very important and again you can spend a lot of time making them. 40 Why not leave some space for a photo of yourself? That will make the membership card really look like it.
So there you are, get clubbing! Once you get started you'll think of loads of more interesting things to do!
A. That's easy.
B. Enjoy your own club!
C. Invite a designer to join you.
D. What are you interested in?
E. Some vacation is just around the corner.
F. Then you need to pick a name for your club.
G. Use a bright thick pen to make a special design.

The first step is to improve our appearance. We should always make sure that we dress well and smile warmly. In this way people will surely be impressed by our confidence. Another important step is to build our character. We should always be honest and willing to help others whenever it is necessary. It’s also important to put others first. If we know how to work and get on well with others, then people will feel comfortable enough to trust us.
I am su re we’ll be popular with others if we can do all of the above.。
