It was lunchtime and I walked into a small branch bank on the West Side. I had come to 1 a checking account. The only officer on 2 was a fortyish black man, standing 3 a small counter from a young white boy who was wearing a V-necked sweater. I thought I was especially 4 of the boy because he looked more like from a prep school than a 5 in a West Side bank. The boy continued to 6 my attention because of what happened next. He was holding an open savings-account book and 7 an expression of disappointment. “But I don’t understand. I opened the account myself, so why can’t I 8 any money?” the boy said, his voice breaking. “I know it is, but those are the rules. I’ve already explained to you that a fourteen-year-old is not 9 to withdraw money without a letter from his parents,” the officer explained patiently. Suddenly I noticed the 10 had a series of small deposits (存款) and withdraws. Then I questioned the officer, “How do you 11 that? Why did you let him withdraw money before, but not now?” He looked 12 . “Because the tellers were not aware of his age before and now they are. It’s really very 13 .” I turned to the boy with a shrug. “You’re really getting 14 ,” I said. “You ought to get your parents to come here and protest.” The boy looked destroyed. 15 , he put his savings book in a rear-pocket and walked out of the bank. The officer turned to me. “You know,” he said, “you really shouldn’t have got 16 .” I couldn’t believe what he was saying. “We were 17 this morning that some neighborhood bully has been shaking down (敲诈) this boy for more than a month. The guy was 18 him to take money out every week and hand it over. The poor kid was 19 too scared to tell anyone. Anyway, the police are on the case and they’ll probably make a(n) 20 today.” “You mean there is no rule about being too young to withdraw money from a savings account?” “Not that I ever heard of. Now, sir, what can we do for you?” 1. A．make B．open C．buy D．choose
2. A．duty B．board C．display D．business
3. A．on B．after C．over D．across

Maybe you’ve just invented something better than the iPhone or a solar-powered car. You don’t want anyone to steal your design. What should you do? Patent (申请专利) it! Patents are the best way to get credit for your work and help others continue advancing in that field. Here’s what you need to know. A patent gives you the right to an invention. The patent protects its owner, which means the invention can’t be copied or sold without their agreement. In exchange, the owner must reveal information about the invention. This contributes knowledge that helps other inventors improve on their own research. A patent usually lasts about 20 years. The first step to getting a patent is the application. The person applying must name the invention, explain its use and describe it clearly. The invention must be practical and contain some new characteristic — something that hasn’t been seen or used before. But not everything “new” can be patented. Many countries don’t allow patents on things like new concepts, scientific theories, medical procedures or substances already found in nature. You may not be able to see patents, but they’re connected to nearly everything. There are patents on things you use every day, like plastic, medicine and your computer. There are patents on things that are unavailable on the market, too. Apple is well-known for its patents on potential products, such as the “iBike” or the “iKey”. Of course there are also patents on inventions like this. Take the anti-eating face mask for example. This device locks around your head with a metal cage covering your mouth. You can breathe and speak, but you can’t eat! Although many patented inventions can be failures, there’s plenty of room for success. So if you have a cool invention, try to patent it. 1.Which of the following is NOT true according to the text? A．A patent can last for around 20 years. B．Everything new can be patented. C．Your invention is protected after you have applied for a patent. D．Some patents are on the things that we use every day. 2.We can infer that Apple’s iBike is _____. A．a popular product B．a mere new concept C．a famous brand in the world D．a practical bike on the market 3.The underlined word “device” in Paragraph 5 can best be replaced by “_____”. A．weapon B．medicine C．equipment D．strength 4.The purpose of writing this passage is to _____. A．advertise B．persuade C．warn D．inform

A group of 1,309 passengers boarded the MS Balmoral on Sunday, in Southampton, England, on a voyage to retrace (重走) the path of the Titanic. The Titanic was the biggest ship in the world when it sailed on its ill-fated first voyage on April 10, 1912. Of the 2,227 passengers and crew aboard, more than l,500 died. The ship, which was headed for New York City, carried the rich and famous on its first voyage. It also carried immigrants who were seeking a better life in America. Relatives of people who sailed on the Titanic, historians, authors and people fascinated by the story of the unsinkable ship were on the Balmoral. They wanted to remember the Titanic and those who died on her first and last voyage. The Balmoral was following Titanic’s original route from Southampton. First, the modern-day cruise liner docked (进港) in the port of Cherbourg, France, where the Titanic had picked up more passengers. On Monday afternoon, the Balmoral stopped in Cobh, Ireland, the Titanic’s last port of call before sailing to New York. The Balmoral then sailed the North Atlantic Ocean to the location where the Titanic hit an iceberg. On Sunday, April 15, at 2:20 a.m. — the time the Titanic went down － passengers and crew held a memorial service. The next two days were spent in Halifax, Canada, where many victims of the Titanic are buried. Then, the Balmoral reached its final destination in New York City, where the Titanic was supposed to dock — but never did. So far, several teams of divers have explored the site. They have recovered items such as dishes and silverware and put them on public display. And the Titanic and its passengers and crew have been remembered in books, movies and TV programs. But there’s a much more important contribution that the Titanic has given us. After she sank, lawmakers and ship builders made ships safer. It took a terrible tragedy to make ship travel safer for all. 1.We learn from the first paragraph that _____. A．the Titanic sank on its second voyage B．about 700 passengers of the Titanic survived C．less than 2,000 passengers boarded the Titanic D．all the passengers’ hopes of the Titanic lay in America 2.Which of the following shows the correct route of the Balmoral? a. Halifax b. New York City c. Cobh d. Southampton e. Cherbourg A．d-e-c-a-b B．e-d-a-b-c C．e-c-a-b-d D．d-c-e-a-b 3.What might be the most important contribution of the Titanic? A．Its site attracts many exploration teams. B．It has made later ships more secure. C．Some of its items are on public display. D．More trips are planned to its site. 4.What would be the best title for the text? A．The unsinkable ship B．The Titanic today C．The Titanic’s route D．Sailing through history

“Drink your milk. It’s good for you!” You’ve probably heard that many times, and it’s true. Milk contains calcium, which is a necessary nutrient for keeping bones and teeth healthy and strong. The U.S. government even requires milk as part of the National School Lunch Program, saying that students should drink one cup of fat-free or low-fat milk at each meal. Last Thursday, however, a group of doctors asked the government to remove milk from the lunch program. The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) says, “Milk is high in sugar, high in fat and high in animal protein, all of which have negative effects on health.” “One of the only reasons people talk about dairy, or promote it, is that it is going to help build strong bones.” says Dr. Neal Barnard, president of the PCRM. There are better and healthier ways to get calcium such as eating beans, broccoli, cereals and tofu. Orange juice and soymilk that have calcium added to them also supply the nutrient. Of course, calcium is important for healthy bones and teeth, but your genes, how much vitamin D you take in and getting an hour’s worth of exercise every day all play a part. Some nutritionists disagree with the idea that milk isn’t important. Keri Gans, a dietitian, says, “I think it’s irresponsible to take away this beverage that children enjoy, especially among those who are unable to meet their nutrient needs for the day, and remove it from the lunch line.” The U.S. government is studying the request of the PCRM, but a decision may be a long way off. Meanwhile, Marion Nestle, a professor at New York University, puts it best: “Milk has nutrients. Other foods have the same nutrients. It’s just a food. Like other foods, too much might be a problem.” 1.What is mainly talked about in the first paragraph? A．The concern about students’ health. B．Traditional attitudes towards milk. C．Ways to keep bones and teeth healthy. D．The practice of the U.S. government. 2.According to Dr. Neal Barnard, milk is preferred mainly because _____. A．children like its taste B．people ignore its disadvantages C．it contains more calcium than other foods D．the calcium in it can build up bone strength 3.We can learn from the text that _____. A．bone strength is determined by many factors B．people’s diets shouldn’t contain animal protein C．the opinion of the PCRM will soon be accepted D．people should turn to vegetables for calcium

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。 Happiness is the only true measure of personal success. Making other people happy is the highest expression of success. 1. With that in mind, here are some suggestions that will immediately increase the amount of happiness in your life: 2. If there’s any big truth about life, it’s that it usually lives up to your expectations. Therefore, when you rise from bed, make your first thought: “Something wonderful is going to happen today. Guess what? You’re probably right. Take time to plan and prioritize (优先处理). The most common source of stress is the thought that you’ve got too much work to do. Rather than worry about it, pick one thing that will move you closer to your highest goal and purpose in life. Then do that first. Eat high quality food slowly. 3. Even so, at least once a day try to eat something really delicious, like a small chunk of fine cheese or and imported chocolate. Taste it, focus on it and enjoy it. Let go of your results. The big enemy of happiness is worry, which comes from focusing on events that are outside your control. Once you’ve taken action, there’s usually nothing more you can do. 4. End each day with gratitude. Just before you go to bed, write down at least one wonderful thing that happened. It might be something as small as making a child laugh or something as huge as a million dollar deal. 5. A．Start each day with expectations. B．Give a gift to everyone you meet. C．Thinking about that thing makes your head hurt. D．It’s impossible to make others happy if you’re not happy. E. Whatever it is, be grateful for that day because it will never come again. F. Sometimes we can’t avoid eating something quickly and running. G. Focus on the job at hand rather than some fantasy that might happen.

This morning I found red wallet on the campus. Girls usual like red, so I believed the wallet was belonged to a girl student. I opened it, try to find out whose it was. Therefore, I found nothing but 300 yuan in it. I was wondering what to do with it while suddenly my classmates Chen Yang passed by. She suggested she put up a Lost and Found notice and I did so. I wrote down my telephone number and ask the owner to call me after she saw it. Later, a girl came to claim it on 3 o’clock this afternoon.
