Thomas Wheeler, CEO (首席执行官) of a company, and his wife were driving along a highway when he noticed that their car was low on gas. Wheeler got off at the next exit and soon found a rundown (破旧) gas station with just one gas pump. He asked the lone attendant (服务人员) to fill the tank and check the oil, and then went for a little walk around the station to relax his legs.
As he was returning to the car, he noticed that the attendant and his wife were talking excitedly. The conversation stopped as he paid the attendant. But as he was getting back into the car, he saw the attendant wave and hear him say, “It was great talking to you.”

“Boy, were you lucky that I came along,” bragged (自夸) Wheeler. “If you had married him, you’d be the wife of a gas station attendant instead of the wife of a CEO.”

How often one hears children wishing they were grown-up, and old people wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.
Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition, life is always presenting new things to the child----things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well-known. But a child has his pains: he is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is continually being told to do things, or being punished for what he has done wrong.
When the young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If, however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society.
59. According to Para. 2, the writer thinks that_____.
A. life for a child is comparatively easy
B. a child is always loved whatever he does
C. if much is given to a child, he must do something in return
D. only children are interested in life
60. After a child grows up, he______.
A. will have little time playing
B. has to be successful in finding a job
C. can still ask for help when in trouble
D. should be able to take care of himself
61. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A. People are often satisfied with their life
B. There are fewer interesting things for old people
C. Adults are freer to do what they want to
D. Adults should no longer rely on others
62. The main idea of the passage is_____.
A. life is not enjoyable since each age has some pains.
B. young men can have the greatest happiness if they work hard
C. childhood is the most enjoyable time in one’s life
D. one is the happiest if he can make good use of each age in his life.
63. The paragraph following this passage will most probably discuss_____.
A. examples of successful young men
B. how to build up one’s position in society
C. joys and pains of old people
D. what to do when one has problems in life
C
It seems that no matter when and where, a cat and a mouse just can’t get along well. Cats always like to run after mice; therefore, whenever a mouse meets a cat, the mouse will try to run away as fast as possible. But, like everything else, there is an exception sometimes.
On day, a young mouse ran around for fun under a tall tree by himself. Maybe because of running too fast, the mouse accidentally kicked up a small piece of rock. The rock went up to the air then dropped down hitting a newborn kitten which happened to be taking a nap under the same tree a few feet away from the mouse’s amusing place. The cat’s body was covered by the falling leaves so the mouse did not notice a cat sleeping nearby.
The kitten was only a few weeks old. He had never seen a mouse. After being hit, he woke up and found that the rock was from another animal.
“What kind of strange animal is it?” The inexperienced kitten thought, It must have lots of power as it could kick up a piece of rock to hit me.” The kitten was scared. Without mother by side, the kitten ran home immediately.
The incident made the young mouse very proud. He told his friends, the other mice, “Everybody says that a mouse is afraid of a cat, but today a fact proved that a cat was afraid of me.” So the mouse announced that he would not escape any more when he saw a cat again. The young mouse’s friends explained to the young mouse that the rock-hitting case was but an incident. The kitten was too young to know a mouse. When the kitten grew up becoming a big cat, it would be different. Therefore, the other mice advised the mouse that he must run away whenever he saw a cat. But the self-important mouse would not take the advice.
As time went by, after the fall and winter, when the spring came, the kitten had grown up and became a big cat. One day, when the mouse and several other mice were gathering under the same tree to discuss something, the former kitten, now a big cat, suddenly showed up. All the mice hurriedly ran away except the mouse that had frightened away the former kitten. The mouse recognized the cat who was frightened away by him before, so he remained staying there without escaping.
64. When was the kitten frightened by the young mouse?
A. In spring B. In summer C. In autumn D. In winter
65. Why did the mouse dare to play under the tall tree?
A. It knew that the cat was afraid of it. B. It knew the cat was too young.
C. It didn’t know there was a cat D. It wanted to scare the cat away
66. What do you think happened in the end?
A. The mouse was killed B. The cat ran away immediately
C. The cat was defeated D. The mouse begged for mercy
67. What lesson can we learn from the passage?
A. There is an exception to everything
B. It takes only courage to achieve something
C. One can never be strong once frightened
D. One should consider everything before taking action
D
When one of Ullman’s grandsons, Jonas Rosenfield, Jr. was having dinner in Japan a few years ago, “Youth” came up in conversation, Rosenfield told his dinner companion, a Japanese business leader, that the author was his grandfather. The news was staggering.
“ ‘You are the grandson of Samuel Ullman?’ he kept repeating,” says Rosenfield, head of the American Film Marketing Association. “He couldn’t get over it.”
Then the executive pulled a copy of “Youth” from his pocket and told Rosenfield, “I carry it with me always.”
Three years ago, several hundred top businessmen and government leaders gathered in Tokyo and Osaka to celebrate their admiration of Ullman’s “Youth”. Konosuke Matsushita, founder of the Panasonic Company, said “Youth” has been his motto for 20 years.”
Someone asked, “Why don’t Americans love “Youth” as much as we do? It sends a message about how to live beautifully to men and women, old and young alike.”
Samuel Ullman was born in 1840 in Germany and came to this country as a boy. He fought in the civil War and settled in Birmingham, Ala. He was a hardware businessman with a liking for public service that continues 67 years after his death. In the last few years more than $36,000 from Japanese royalties (皇室) on a book and a cassette reading of his work has gone to a University of Alabama at Birmingham scholarship fund. Not bad for a man who started writing in his 70s.
68. What does “Youth” refer to?
A. a newspaper B. a magazine C. a notebook D. an essay

D. Perhaps Rosenfield’s mother was Ullman’s daughter.

One hot night last July, when our new baby wouldn’t or couldn’t sleep, I tried everything I could think of: a warm bottle, songs, gentle rocking. Nothing would settle him. Guessing that I had a long night ahead of me, I brought a portable TV into his room, thinking that watching the late movie was as good a way as any to kill off the hours until dawn. To my surprise, as soon as the TV lit up, the baby quieted right down, his little eyes focused brightly on the tube. Not to waste an opportunity for sleep, I then tip-toed out of the room, leaving him to watch the actors celebrate John Bellushi’s forty-fifth birthday.
My wife and I heard no more of the baby that night, and the next morning when I went into his room, I found him still watching TV himself.
I found in my baby’s behaviour a metaphor（隐喻，暗喻）for the new generation. My wife and I had given him some books to examine, but he merely spit（吐液）upon them. When we read to him, he did not feel comfortable. And so it is in the schools. We find that our students don’t read, that they look down upon reading and scold those of us who teach it. All they want to do is watch TV. After this experience with the baby, however, I have reached a conclusion: “Let them watch it!” If television is that much more attractive to children than books, why should we fight it? Let them watch it all they want!
72. From the passage we know that the author is a(n) _____.
A. doctor B. editor C. writer D. teacher
73. Why did the writer bring the portable TV into his baby’s room.
A. To amuse his baby B. To entertain himself C. To enjoy a celebration D. To help fall asleep
74. What is the writer’s purpose of writing this passage?
A. To show that babies now are hard to please. B. To show a new fun_ction of TV
C. To advise people to let children watch TV. D. To show the bad influence of TV on children.
75. What do you think the author wants to express through the last two sentences?
A. People have no way to prevent children from watching too much TV.
B. It is not necessary for people to force children to read.
C. People have to take action to protect children from the bad influence of TV.
D. People should try to develop children’s interest in reading from an early age.

No one knows who made the first ice cream. Some people think that water ices and milk ices may have been made by the Chinese between three thousand and a thousand years ago. In that time, the dish reached India. The Indians, in turn, many have passed on the secret to the Arabs and Persians.
Marco Polo, an Italian who travelled widely in the thirteenth century, noted that he found the Chinese had long been making ices out of fruit juices and milk. From the fourteenth century on, ices became popular first in Venice and then throughout Italy.
At first ice cream was a luxury (奢侈品) in France. Only rich people had the money to buy it. Then, in 1660, a young man from Sicily, Francisco Procopio, arrived in Paris. He opened a shop that sold ice cream at prices people could afford. Then his ice cream became so popular that other shops were opened.
About 1640, King Charles introduced ice cream to England and soon ice cream quickly became popular in England too.
American now eat more ice cream than any other people in the world. But they are not the only ones who are fond of it. Greeks are also very fond of ice cream. In the large cities of Germany there are many small shops that sell only ice cream. Ice cream shops are not as common as in England, although large London stores do have soda fountains (冷饮部).
Ice cream sodas first became popular sometime in the 1880s in the United States. In fact they soon became too popular to suit some of the good people of Evanston, Illinois. They thought it was not proper to drink soda on Sunday. A city law was passed to stop the ice cream soda on Sundays. To keep within the law, it is said that one man served ice cream with syrup (糖水).
Throughout its long history, ice cream has been a favorite dish. But only in this century has it been made with so many different tastes. People today can select from more than 240 flavors. [344W]
