Finally, I got a part – time job working at the local coffee shop. I had figured that the job would be easy. However, the actual situation was not what I had expected. The customers were hard to please. There was always too much sugar, too little ice, or not enough skimmed milk. However, I kept at it.
One rainy day, Hank, one of my regular customers, came in looking sad and defeated. I asked what the problem was and if we could help, but Hank wouldn’t tell me any details. He just said he felt like going to bed, pulling the sheets up over his head, and staying there for a few years. I knew exactly how he felt.
Before he left, I handed him a bag of his favorite type of doughnuts along with his iced coffee. He looked at me skeptically because he hadn’t ordered anything else except iced coffee.
“It’s on me,” I told him. “Have a nice day.”
He smiled and thanked me before turning around and heading back out into the rain.
The next day was a horrible one. The rain kept pouring down and I spent my afternoon hanging out the window, handing people their orders. What’s worse, no one felt like tipping that day.
However, around 7:00 pm, Hank drove up to the window. Instead of ordering anything, he handed me a single pink rose and a little note. He said that few people take the time to care about others nowadays and he was glad there were still people like me in the world. I was speechless and very touched; I hadn’t thought that I had done anything incredible.
The note read:
Christine,
Thanks for being so sweet, kind and thoughtful yesterday. I was sincerely touched by you. It is so nice to meet someone that’s nice, warm, sensitive and unselfish. Please don’t change your ways because I truly believe that you will excel. Have a great day!
Hank
Later, I did come across more complaining customers. But anytime I felt sad or just sick of coffee, I thought of Hank and his kindness. Then I would smile, hold my head up high, clear my throat and ask politely, “How can I help you ”

Iodine – rich salt was the hottest item on Chinese shelves Thursday, being snapped up (抢购) by shoppers after rumors spread that iodine intake could help protect one’s body from radiation damage, although the authorities have confirmed that the nuclear crisis in Japan had not affected China.
Rumors also spread about radioactive substances (物质) being leaked into ocean water that could pollute Chinese coasts.
The crazy buying has occurred nationwide, from the supposedly easily – harmed eastern coastal provinces to regions far – inland such as Xinjiang.
Supermarkets and convenience stores began reporting the lack of salt stocks from early Wednesday, with all salt sold out at many Carrefour and Wal – Mart stores. Some online clothes stores have begun offering salt as a bonus to customers.
Relevant government departments were trying hard to stop this round of panic – buying.
The Ministry of Health denied (否认) the rumor that eating more iodine – rich salt could repair damage from radiation, saying that it is technically impossible to absorb enough iodine for radiation prevention from eating salt.
The government urges the local market authorities to keep all salt sellers in check and to prevent storing and overpricing.
Also the spokesman of the government said that China’s seawater, as a source of salt, would not be affected by the nuclear crisis, as it would be impossible for radioactive substances to reach Chinese waters via the eastward ocean current.
“Reasons behind the salt rush include unclear information on the development of the nuclear crisis and terrifying media reports of the severity of a possible complete meltdown. If the fear of a Chernobyl – like catastrophe cannot be ended, the crazy buying will likely continue,” said a professor from Beijing University.
Beijing urged Tokyo Thursday to better release information at the Fukushima plant.
56．What caused the crazy buying of iodine – rich salt
A．The rumor caused by the unclear information.
B．The shortage of iodine – rich salt in stores.
C．The multi – functions of iodine in salt.
D．The richness of iodine in salt in China.
57．Some online clothes stores began offering salt as a bonus to customers because _______.
A．they can increase their sales by doing so
B．the salt from them is more effective
C．the customers prefer to buy salt on line
D．the salt from the on-line store is free
58．It’s quite clear that some sellers want to store iodine-rich salt is to _______.
A．increase the sales of related products
B．raise the price of products online
C．make more money from it
D．meet the needs of the market
59．Why is it impossible for radioactive substances to reach Chinese waters
A．The ocean is really too large.
B．The distance from Japan is too far.
C．The nuclear pollution is not so serious.
D．The ocean current is eastward.
60．Which of the following should be the best title of the passage
A．Panic Salt Buying Creates Bitter Crisis
B．Effect of the Terrible Disaster in Japan
C．A Rumor Throughout the Country.
D．Iodine-rich Salt Prevents Radiation.
C
Most American students go to traditional public schools. There are about 88,000 public schools all over the US. Some students attend about 3000 independent public schools called charter schools.
Charter schools are self-governing. Private companies operate some charter schools. They are similar in some ways to traditional public schools. They receive tax money just as other public schools do. Charter schools must prove to local or state governments that their students are learning. These governments provide the schools with the agreement called a charter that permits them to operate.
Charter schools are different because they do not have to obey most laws governing traditional public schools. Local, state or federal governments cannot tell them what to teach. Each school can choose its own goals and decide the ways it wants to reach them. Class size is usually smaller than in traditional public schools.
The Bush Administration strongly supports charter schools as a way to re-organize public schools that are failing to educate students. But some education agencies and unions oppose charter schools. One teachers’ union has just made public the results of the first national study comparing the progress of students in traditional schools and charter schools.
The American Federation of Teachers criticized the government’s delay in releasing the results of the study, which is called the National Assessment of Educational Progress. Union education experts say the study shows that charter school students performed worse on math and reading tests than students in regular public schools.
Some experts say the study is not a fair look at charter schools because students in those schools have more problems than students in traditional schools. Other education experts say the study results should make charter school officials demand improved student progress.
61．If a private company wants to operate a charter school, it must .
A．try new methods of teaching
B．prove its management ability
C．obey the local and state laws
D．get the government’s permission
62．Charter schools are independent because .
A．they make greater progress
B．their class size is smaller
C．they enjoy more freedom
D．they oppose traditional ways
63．What’s the government’s attitude toward charter schools
A．Doubtful. B．Supportive. C．Subjective. D．Optimistic.
64．What can we learn from the text
A．More students choose to attend charter schools.
B．Charter schools are better than traditional schools.
C．Students in charter schools are well educated.
D．People have different opinions about charter schools.
65．It can be inferred from the text that .
A．charter schools are part of the public education system
B．one-on-one attention should be paid to students
C．the number of charter schools will be limited
D．charter schools are all privately financed

For many people—especially those dealing with family and work at the same time--it can be difficult to stick with a college degree. Kathy Vitzthum thought many times about dropping out of her accounting program at Iowa State University: She had two children and a job at Electronic technology Corp. She’d only enrolled (报名) in the first place because her boss offered her a promotion if she took a few accounting courses.
Because she only had enough time to take one class at a time, it took her seven years to complete the coursework her boss had asked her to take on. She received the promotion as promised, and wasn’t planning to continue on to a degree. But a request from her father, who was dying from cancer, made her think twice. He said to her, “Kathy, why don’t you just keep going and get your degree ”
Before he passed away 11 years ago, he made her promise that she would finish it. And he made her a promise in turn: Vitzthum’s parents had agreed to give each of their children a valuable gift when they graduated from college, and Vitzthum was obsessed with an antique she’d come across and knew that she couldn’t afford. After she promised to graduate from college, her parents bought the antique for her. Her father told her, “I’m not going to be around when you graduate, so I’ll give this to you on loan now.”
After that, Vitzthum looked at that antique every day and remembered the promise she had made to her father. Despite an abustle life as wife, mother, and full-time employee, she’s taken one course every semester for the last 19 years. And finally, at the age of 48, she graduated with a bachelor’s degree in accounting.
66.Why did Kathy enroll in the first place to take her accounting program (No more than 12 words)
67.Why did it take Kathy seven years to finish the accounting program
(No more than 15 words)
68.What did Kathy’s father request her to do before he died 11 years ago (No
more than 8 words)

70.What did you learn from Kathy (No more than 20 words)

Possible version
Hello, everyone. It’s nice to speak about what we can do for our school, and I think each of us can do something.
The first thing we can do is to make our campus more beautiful by planting trees in the school, or organizing a thorough cleaning on the campus. We can also form a good habit of putting the rubbish in the trashcan. The second thing we can do is to protect the facilities in our school. When we leave the classroom, we should never forget to turn off the light or close the door. Don’t leave tap water running or waste any materials in the laboratory class.
Thank you for listening!
