I was waiting for a phone call from my agent last night. He had left a message the night before, telling me that my show was to be cancelled. I called him several times, but each time his secretary told me that he was in a meeting and that he would call me later. So I waited and waited, but there was still no call. Three hours passing by, I became more and more impatient. I was certain that my agent didn't care about my work, and he didn't care about me. That thought beat me. I started to shout at the phone, "Let me wait, will you? Who do you think you are?" At that time I didn't realize my wife was looking on. Without showing her surprise, she rushed in, took away the phone and pulled the lines out of the phone, and shouted at the phone, "Yeah! Who do you think you are? Bad telephone! Bad telephone!" And she swept it into the wastebasket. I stood watching her, speechless. What on earth...? She stepped to the doorway and shouted at the rest of the house, "Now hear this! All objects in this room - if you do anything to upset my husband, out you go!" Then she turned to me, kissed me, and said quietly, "Dear, you just have to learn how to take control." With that, she left the room. After watching a crazy woman rushing in and out, shouting at everything in sight, I noticed that something in my feelings had changed. I was laughing. How could I have trouble with that phone? Her unusual actions helped me realize I had been driven crazy by small things. Twenty minutes later my agent did call. I was able to listen to him and talk to him quietly. 1. Why did the writer shout at the telephone? A. He was mad at the telephone. B. He was worried about his wife. C. He was angry with his agent. D. He was impatient with the secretary. 2.What did the writer's wife do after she heard his shouting? A.She said nothing. B. She threw the phone away. C. She shouted at him. D. She called the agent. 3.What made the writer laugh? A. His wife's sweet kiss. B. His own behavior. C. His changeable feelings. D. His wife's suggestion.

Danny lived for football. He played it, watched it, talked and dreamed about it. His favourite football star was Keith Connolly – Lowgate’s captain. One day in January, after school, Danny hurried through his homework. He wanted to watch TV. Keith Connolly was doing an interview on the local news programme. Danny hoped that the television wouldn’t go fuzzy*or lose the sound when Keith Connolly was talking. It was an old set, and it did things like that. It wasn’t clear enough, but at last Keith Connolly’s smiling face appeared on the screen. “What I really like about playing for Lowgate,” he said, “is the fans. They’re the best. They always support us. It’s wonderful running on to the playground to all that cheering and chanting.” Danny wished he could be in that crowd at the Lowgate ground, but the price of a single ticket was far above anything he could afford. There was no chance of the whole family going, or even just Danny and his little brother. “You won again on Saturday,” said the reporter. “Did the team go out to celebrate?” “We went for a meal together,” said Keith Connolly, “but I have to be careful about what I eat, because I want to stay fit. I love doughnuts* very much …” Then the sound went fuzzy, and Danny jumped up and thumped the top of the set heavily to make it come on again. He hadn’t missed much. But he had missed something important. Keith Connolly had been saying “… but I’m not allowed to eat doughnuts.” Danny hadn’t heard that. All he heard was that Keith Connolly loved doughnuts. And at the end of Danny’s street was a bakery*. It sold the biggest and the best doughnuts! When Danny went to bed, he lay wide-awake, making a plan. 1.One day, Danny did his homework hurriedly in order to ________. A. watch a TV programme B. interview Keith Connolly C. read a football newspaper D. play with Keith Connolly 2.The writer described Danny’s TV to tell us ________. A.

Almost nothing we do in this world is done in isolation*. At work or at play, you’ll find yourself in groups, working with other people: your team at work, a meeting with fellow workers, your family, a holiday with friends, a group of students working together, a group of neighbors wanting to make changes. It is now realized that being able to work successfully with other people is one of the main keys to success, partly because we need to do it so often. In almost every situation where you’re in a group, you will need a skilled leader. All groups need leaders and all successful groups have good leaders. Groups without leaders or with weak leaders almost always break down. Members of a leaderless group often begin to feel disappointed and helpless. Time is wasted and the tasks are not achieved. There are often arguments and nervousness between people as there is nobody to keep the goals clear. Some people are natural leaders. The well-known cook, Antonio Carlucci says, “True leaders are born and you see them in kitchens.” They’re people who are strong, fair, and humorous. Although a lot of people agree that there are some natural-born leaders, most people now know that leadership can also be taught. Experienced teachers can train almost anyone how to be a successful leader. Good leaders don’t make people do things in a controlling way. You can learn how to join others, encouraging the whole group to work towards a common goal. Successful leaders also need to be calm and wise. They need to be able to work out good solutions and make perfect judgments* under pressure. Lastly, and probably most importantly, good leaders need to be sensitive*, confident and be able to get on well with different kinds of people. 1.When we are at work or at play, we find we are probably working_______. A. independently B.successfully C.in isolation D.in groups 2.Groups with ______ leaders will often cause arguments at meetings or between people. A.good and strong B.no or weak C.skilled but helpless D.good and natural 3. Good leaders always have many ways of doing things except _________. A.joining people together B. encouraging the whole group C.controlling people to do things D. leading people to work towards goals 4.Which of the following is NOT correct according to this passage? A.One of the main keys to success is being able to work with others well. B. People will often feel disappointed and helpless if they aren’t with good leaders. C. Being calm and wise can help leaders make perfect judgments under pressure. D. Experienced teachers can hardly train people to be successful leaders. 5.Which of the following can be the best title for this passage? A.How to be successful leaders B. Successful leaders C. Be natural leaders D. Be sensitive and confident
