Scene 1 On a wild mountain, two goats met on a rock just over a high cliff (峭壁). The rock was so narrow that there was neither room for them to pass each other nor to turn round and go back. One of them with great care laid himself down on the narrow rock, pressing as close to the rock as he could. Then the other goat gently and softly stepped over his friend, till, safely past him, he could lightly get away. The goat that had lain down then drew himself up, safe and free to leap again from rock to rock, and eat the sweet grass on the hills. Scene 2 Two other goats met on the banks of a wild, rushing stream. They found there was a tree across the stream. It formed a bridge from one side to the other. They stood for a moment with one foot on the tree, each thinking that the other would draw back. But neither of them would give away, and they met at last on the middle of the narrow bridge! They then began to push and fight with their horns (犄角), till at last their feet slipped, and both the goats fell into the stream, and were lost in the waters! Both might have been saved if either of them had known how to give way to another at the right time. 1.How did the two goats in Scene 1 manage to get away from the rock? A.

In March 2014, Australia opened junior high education to Chinese students, allowing them to study in Australian schools from the seventh grade. “When more Chinese students are going to study abroad at a younger age, the opening of Australian junior high schools offers Chinese students and their parents one more good choice,” Tian Litie, director of the Australian Department of Chivast Education International, said at the China International Education Exhibition Tour over the weekend. Australia will see a rise in the number of Chinese junior and senior high school students studying in the country. Tian showed the reasons for it: lower admission (入学许可) requirements and low-cost education because of a favorable exchange rate (费率). According to Tian, in public schools in Australia a student should pay A$13,000 to A$15,000 ($10,000 to $12,000) a year. “Now the exchange rate of the Australian dollar to renminbi is below five, which means the cost is lower than that of Chinese students studying at junior and senior high schools in many other hot places, such as Britain and the US,” said Tian. Lin Lina from Beijing plans to send her daughter to a senior high school in Australia, was among them. “My daughter is good at English and would like to study abroad early,” said Lin, whose daughter is now a ninth-grader in Beijing. “We came for more information after we learned that the environment and education in Australia are good.” Eliza Chui, education officer for North Asia at the Australian Consulate-General in Shanghai, said that Australia is attractive not only because it provides an environment for learning English, but also because students are trained to have critical (批判性的) thinking and be independent. 1.According to Tian Litie, we know that ______. A. more and more Chinese students study abroad at a younger age B. more and more Australian universities are open to Chinese students C. Chinese students are only allowed to study in Australia from senior high school D. a student should pay A$10,000 to A$12,000 a year in public schools in Australia 2.What does the word “it” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Australia allows Chinese students to study in its schools. B. More and more Chinese students go abroad at a younger age. C. More Chinese junior and senior high school students will study in Australia. D. Australian schools offer Chinese students and their parents one more good choice. 3.Lin Lina plans to send her daughter to Australia because ______. A. her daughter has travelled to Australia before B. she can’t afford to send her daughter to other countries C. her daughter is an independent student with critical thinking D. she learned that the environment and education in Australia are good 4.According to the article, which of the following is TRUE? A. The cost of studying in American schools is lower than in Australia. B. The exchange rate of the Australian dollar is of advantage to Chinese students. C. It’s more difficult for Chinese students to enter Australian junior high schools. D. Few students choose to study in Britain or the US because of too much money. 5.What is the passage mainly about? A. You should think twice before you decide to go abroad. B. More and more Chinese students choose to study abroad. C. Australian schools will attract more and more Chinese students. D. Australian schools have much more advantages than other schools in the world.

I remembered Julie coming to the front of the classroom after class one autumn day in September 1976. While most of the other students hurriedly left to enjoy the pleasant weather or to relax at the student union, Julie remained to ask me questions about the next week’s exam. She had clearly already done some serious studying. Julie never made it to the exam. The day after our conversation, she was hit by a large truck as she rode a bike through a crossroads. I was sad to hear that Julie lay unconscious (昏迷的) in a hospital across town from our university. Nurses silently came and went from Julie’s room. Her parents stood nearby quietly. Then the doctor entered the room and said to Julie’s parents and two brothers, “Your Julie has only a few hours to live.” He continued to ask, “Would you think about donating some of Julie’s organs (器官)?” At the same time in a neighboring city, a woman called Mary was trying to see better in her small living room. Her eyes followed every movement of her lively two-year-old baby. This mother was storing up memories when she could no longer see her child. Several cities away, a young father called John was reading to his two sons in the hospital. However, he was told to have only weeks to live. His only hope was a kidney transplant (肾脏移植). The two parents looked at each other, the doctor could see tears in their eyes. “Yes. Julie had once said she wanted to donate her organs in the event of her death. Julie always gave to others while she was alive. She would like to give in death.” Within twenty-four hours, Mary was told that she would receive one of Julie’s eyes, and John was told to start preparing for a kidney transplant. Julie’s other organs would give life to other waiting patients. “Julie died right after her twentieth birthday. Nothing could possibly be as heartbreaking as the death of your child,” says Julie’s mother. She continues, “But Julie’s life was a gift to us. Knowing that in her death, she gave the gift of life and sight to others is comforting to us. ” 1.Which word can best describe Julie according to Paragraph 1? A. Hard-working. B. Helpful. C. Clever.

A. was a classmate of the writer’s B. was the only child of her family C. didn’t take the exam because of the accident D. died immediately at the scene of the accident 3.The underlined word “comforting ” in the last paragraph means “______”.

Julie prepared for the exam carefully before the accident. D. John and Mary were patients in the same hospitals with Julie. 5.Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A.
