A
Hello, everyone! I have read over fifteen interesting stories in the past few weeks. And many of them tell me what to do with the problems in my daily life. Now I’m sharing some of them with you.
Story 1
A boy once found a jar(罐子) full of nuts in his mother’s kitchen and he put his hand in to help himself get as many as he could. When he tried to take his hand out of the jar, however, he found that the opening was too narrow(狭窄的) for his clenched fist(握紧的拳头) to pass through.
“What shall I do ’’ he cried. “My hand will be stuck in this jar.” Just then his mother came in. “Really,” she said, “there’s nothing to make such a fuss(大惊小怪) about. Try taking half as many nuts as you have in your hand, and you’ll find your hand will come out of the jar quite easily.”
Story 2
A woman walks up to a little old man, rocking(摇动) in a chair on his porch(走廊).
“I couldn’t help noticing how happy you look,” she says. “What’s your secret for a long, happy life ”
“I smoke three packs a day, drink a case of whiskey(威士忌) a week, and never exercise.”
“Wow, that’s amazing,” says the woman, “How old are you ”
“Twenty-six.”
( )1. How many interesting stories has the writer read in the past few weeks
A.15 B. about 15 C. less than 15 D. more than 15
( )2. What does the boy put his hand in the jar to do
A. To break the jar. B. To get as many nuts as he could for himself.
C. To help his mother get nuts. D. To hide his hand for fun.
( )3. What does Story 1 tell us
A. To leave the hand in the jar. B. To make such a fuss when in trouble.
C. To give up a few things when necessary. D. Not to get any nuts because of problems.
( )4. How many bad habits are mentioned according to the little old man in Story 2
A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.
( )5. In fact, what can help you live a long and happy life
A. Smoking three packs a day. B. Drinking a case of whiskey a week.
C. Eating fatty foods. D. Exercising as often as possible.
B
How could we tell time if there were no watches or clocks anywhere in the world The sun was probably the world’s first “clock”, except in the far north, where the Eskimos(爱斯基摩人) live. There, it’s dark most of the winter, and light most of the summer. But in most of the world, people have used the sun for a clock. Even today, if you don’t have a clock, you still know that when the sun shines, it’s day, and when it’s dark, it’s night. The sun can also tell you if it’s morning, noon, or afternoon.
People who live near the sea can tell time from the tides. In the daytime, for about six hours, the water rises higher and higher on the beach. And then it goes down and down for about six hours. The same thing happens again at night. There are two high tides and two low tides every 24 hours.
Seamen on a ship learn how to tell time by looking at the moon and the stars. The whole sky is their clock.
In some places in the world the wind comes up at about the same time every day or changes direction or stops blowing. In these places the wind can be the clock.
A sand clock is an even better clock. If you had fine dry sand in a glass shaped like the one in the picture, you would have what is called an hourglass. The sand in the hourglass goes from the top part to the bottom part in exactly one hour. When the hourglass is turned over, the sand will take another hour to go back again.
( )1. According to(根据) the passage, there are _______ ways to tell time besides the
clock and watch.
A. 3 B. 4 C. 5 D. 7
( )2. The Eskimos in the far north can’t use the sun for a clock because __________.
A. they know very little about the sun B. the sun there never goes down in winter
C. it’s too cold for them to go out to watch the sun
D. it has long dark winters and long light summers
( )3. The underlined(下划线) word “tides” in the passage means __________.
A. 洋流 B. 潮汐 C. 海啸 D. 波浪
( )4.In which page of a newspaper can you most probably read this passage
A. News B. Science C. Business D. Advertisement
( )5. What’s the best title for the passage
A. Different Ways to Tell Time B. Useful Machines to Tell Time
C. The History of the Clock D. The Development of the Clock
C
Thousands of years ago, there lived a king. His people loved him, since he looked after their needs well. He would often invite some smart people to look at his work and give him advice.

The old man replied in a calm voice, “Dear king! Your palace will be strong and last forever. It will be beautiful, but not perfect. It may take tens of thousands of workers a whole lifetime to build it, working day and night. Your palace will cost a lot of money which must come from the people.

A horse fair is an interesting place. There were young horses from the country,little Welsh ponies and many beautiful horses too. But there were also a lot of poor, thin horses, tired from hard work. I was very sad to see them.
At the horse fair there was a man with a gentle voice and kind grey eyes.He offered 23 pounds for me, but they refused. Then a man with a very loud voice came. I was afraid he was going to buy me, but he walked off. Then the grey-eyed man came back again and said,“I’ll give 24 for him."
“Done,” said the salesman. “He's a quality horse and if you want him for cab(出租马车) work, he's a bargain. "
Half an hour later we set off for London, along country roads,until we came to that great city. There were streets to the right,and streets to the left. We went into one of the small streets,and then into a very narrow street,with small,old houses.
My owner stopped at a house. The door opened, and a woman a little girl and a boy, came out.
“Is he gentle,Father ”
“Yes,Dolly, as gentle as a kitten; you can pat him.”
Dolly, the little girl, patted my shoulder without fear. It felt so good!They led me into a comfortable, clean stable, and after a delicious meal I lay down to sleep,thinking“I'm going to be very happy here”.
My new owner's name was Jerry. His wife was called Polly and they had two children, Harry and Dolly. The next morning they came to see me. I loved it when they patted me and spoke in gentle voices.
“Let's call him 'Jack’, after the old horse, shall we, Harry ” said Dolly.
“Yes,let's,” said Harry.
The first week of my life as Jack,the London cab horse was very hard. The noise and the people and the traffic on the streets scared me. But Jerry was a very good driver,and that helped a lot. Jerry soon found that I was ready to work hard and do my best,and he didn't whip上(鞭打)me.
He kept us very clean,and gave us as much food as we wanted. But the best thing was that we had Sundays off.

snail caterpillar earthworm
One day, a baby snail found that he had to carry a shell at any time. He was confused, so he went up to his mother and asked, “Why was I born with a shell that grew so hard and heavy ” His mother said, “Because we don’t have bones to hold us up. We can only move slowly, so we need a shell to protect us.”The baby snail asked again, “The caterpillar has no bones, either, and she can’t move quickly. Why can she live without a shell ” The mother snail answered, “That’s because a caterpillar will become a butterfly. She can fly high into the sky. Then the sky can protect her.”
The baby snail had one more question, “But the earthworm moves like us. He has no bones and he won’t turn into butterfly. Why doesn’t he carry a hard and heavy shell ” His mother said, “He can dig a hole and hide in the ground, and then the earth can protect him.”
The baby snail then cried, “We are so poor! We have no protection from the sky or from the ground! ” His mother smiled at him, “That’s why we have a shell. My dear, imagine that if we don’t have the shells, what will happen to us Hot sun will dry out our bodies and we’ll have nowhere to sleep. What’s worse, we’ll die in the heavy rain. How terrible it is! We don’t depend on the sky or the ground for protection. We should depend on ourselves.”

Reading is very important in our daily life.
In the past, I had too much homework and I didn’t have enough time to read books. I didn’t know what kind of books to read. What’s more, I spent much time on TV and Internet.
But now, reading has become an important part of my life. It takes me at least half an hour to read books every day. I like history books and novels best.
I hope more and more students will read books because books are our friends. Reading can open up a whole new world to us.
Let’s start reading now!
