I got up and dressed, stuck my violin under my jacket, and went out into the street. I wandered about for an hour, looking for a likely place, feeling as if I were about to commit a crime. Then I stopped at last under a bridge near the station and decided to have a go. I felt tense and shaking. I drew my violin from under my coat like a gun. It was here, in Southampton, with trains passing overhead, that I was about to prove myself. The first notes I played were loud and raw, and then they settled down and began to run more smoothly and to stay more or less in tune. To my surprise I was neither arrested nor told to shut up. Indeed, nobody took any notice at all. I walked the streets of Southampton for several days, gradually knowing how to try and get money by being a street artist. It was not a good thing, for instance, to let the hat fill up with money — the sight could discourage the people; nor was it wise to empty it completely, which could also confuse them, giving them no hint as to where to drop his money. Placing a couple of pennies in the hat to start the thing going soon became a good idea. Before I played another tune, I took off the big money, but always left two pennies behind. Old ladies were most generous, and so were women with children, shop girls, and typists. As for the men: Heavy drinkers were always generous too and so were big young with muscles. But never a man with a hat, briefcase or dog; respectable types were the meanest of all, except retired army officers, who would bark “Why aren’t you working, young man?” and then threw much money into the hat to hide their confusion. 1.The underlined phrase “have a go” in Paragraph 1 probably means ________. A. have a try B. run away C. change a place D. commit a crime 2.When the writer began to play the violin, he thought that ________. A. he could make a lot of money B. he had chosen the wrong place C. he would get into trouble D. people would stop and listen to him 3.According to the passage, the writer thought the best way of encouraging people to give a street-violinist money was to ________. A. let the hat fill up with money first B. leave a small amount of money in the hat C. make sure that the hat was always empty D. choose the best place to play more smooth tunes 4.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? A. Most of the ladies were willing to give him money. B. Retired army officers seldom gave him money. C. Drinkers were generous with their money. D. Not all the people would feel pity for street-violinists.

Most parents and teachers would get angry when they hear that teenagers listen to their iPods while preparing for exams. But pupils who listen to music when doing their homework may be, in fact, working hard. Thirty three schools have downloaded specially written pop and rock songs for their 10,000 pupils who are studying for GCSE (初级毕业证书). The professionally recorded music, based on texts in English literature, teaches teenagers about themes in the GCSE curriculum (课程). Two young men set up “Revise”, the company that produced the songs, and worked with teachers to make sure the lyrics (歌词) reflected the curriculum. Some of the songs were written by Geraint Brown, a director, and they are performed by professional singers and musicians. Songs for the GCSE science and maths lessons are also being developed in 36 schools. They have also started using the program, called, “LearnThruMusic”. Dave Matthews, the head of Hawthorn High School in the South Wales valleys, said the program aimed at helping teenagers who are unwilling to study. He said, “There are lots of pupils who don’t have a high level of home support. It’s almost cool to say you have no need to find a support and we have got to change that. With this, they don’t have to be sitting at their desk at home. They can be outside, walking around or even listening to it on the bus, which is very convenient for them.” Everyone has a phone, MP3 or CD player, and they’re more likely to listen to these than pick up a book. “I think everyone would agree that music had an important influence on us when growing up. Both boys and girls are very good at remembering the words and dancing to the music in the charts. There’s no one thing that will successfully engage (使…产生兴趣) every child, and some of them will make little or no use of this. But the fact that they don’t have to do any extra work makes this a very good deal for a kid,” Dave Matthews added. 1.The pop and rock songs used in 36 schools ________. A. were written for the students to relax themselves B. made most parents and teachers angry C. were specially written for hardworking students D. were closely related to the curriculum 2.Which benefit of the program is NOT mentioned in the passage? A. It saves students much extra work. B. It offers different ways of learning. C. It makes remembering easier. D. It improves family support to kids. 3.Which of the following can be inferred in the passage? A. The program is not expected to have equal effect on every student. B. Some students used the song as an excuse for not reading textbooks. C. It’s more difficult to create songs for science and maths lessons. D. Students involved in the program needn’t go to school every day. 4.Which of the following might be the best title for the passage? A. Special-written Songs — A Reason Why Students Should Listen to IPods. B. Special-written Songs — A New Way to Learn the Curriculum. C. Special-written Songs — A Substitution for Textbooks. D. Special-written Songs — Mothers’ New Concern.

When you are little, it’s not hard to believe you can change the world. I remember my enthusiasm when, at the age of 12, I addressed delegates at the Rio Earth Summit. “I am only a child,” I told them .“Yet I know that if all the money spent on war was spent on ending poverty and finding environment answers, what a wonderful place this would be. In school you teach us not to fight with others, to work things out, to respect others, to clean up our mess, not to hurt other creatures, to share, not to be greedy. Then why do you go out and do the thing you tell us not to do ? You grown-ups say you love us, but I challenge you, please, to make your actions reflect your words.” I spoke for six minutes and received a standing ovation. Some of the delegates even cried. I thought that maybe I had reached some of them, that my speech might actually spur(激励) action. Now, a decade from Rio, after I’ve sat through many more conferences, I’m not sure what has been accomplished. My confidence in the people in power and in the power of an individual’s voice to reach them has been deeply shaken. When I was little, the world was simple. But as a young adult, I’m learning that as we have to make choices — education, career, lifestyle — life gets more and more complicated. We are beginning to feel pressure to produce and be successful. We are taught that economic growth is in progress, but aren’t taught how to pursue a happy, healthy or sustainable(可持续的) way of living. And we are learning that what we wanted for the future when we were 12 was ideal and innocent. Today I’m no longer a child, but I’m worried about what kind of environment my children will grow up in. I know change is possible, because I am changing, still figuring out what I think. I am still deciding how to live my life. The challenges are great, but if we accept individual responsibility and make sustainable choices, we will rise to the challenges, and we will become part of the positive tide of change. 1.The purpose of what the writer said at the age of 12 was to _____. A. end poverty and make school beautiful B. find environmental answers and keep the words that they always told themselves C. end poverty and solve the problems about environment D. find a wonderful place and clean it up 2.What does the underlined word “ovation” in the second paragraph refer to _____. A. a long period of laughing B. a warm welcome C. an expression used for greeting D. a long period of clapping and applause 3.It becomes clear that the writer is possibly _____ now. A. in his teens B. in his twenties C. in his thirties D. in his forties 4.Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. the writer thinks what he thought at the age of 12 is mature. B. the writer’s children will certainly live in an ideal environment. C. the writer’s confidence in the people in power has deeply shaken their voice. D. the writer’s belief does not change when he grows up.

Although websites such as Facebook and MySpace experienced rapid growth during the middle of the first decade of the 21st century, some users remain unaware of the fact that the information they post online can come back to haunt them. First, employers can monitor employees who maintain a blog, photo diary, or website. Employers can look for controversial(引起争议的) employee opinions, sensitive information disclosures, or wildly inappropriate conduct. For example, a North Carolina newspaper fired one of its features writers after she created a blog on which she wrote about the strange things of her job and coworkers without signing her real name. The second unintended use of information from social networking websites is employers who check on prospective employees. A June 11, 2006 New York Times article reported that many companies use search engines and social networking websites such as MySpace, Xanga, and Facebook to conduct background checks on college campuses. Although the use of MySpace or Google to check a student’s background is somewhat unsettling to many undergraduates, the Times noted that the use of Facebook is especially shocking to students who believe that Facebook is limited to current students and recent alum(校友). Corporate employers are not the only people interested in college students’ lives. The third unintended use of social networking websites is college administrators who monitor the Internet — especially Facebook — for student bad behavior. For example, a college in Boston’s Back Bay expelled (除名) its student Government Association President for joining a Facebook group highly critical of a campus police sergeant. In addition, fifteen students at a state university in North Carolina faced charges in court for underage drinking because of photos that appeared on Facebook. Although more users of websites such as Facebook are becoming aware of the potential dangers of online identities, many regular users still fail to take there basic security precautions(警惕). First, only make your information available to a specific list of individuals whom you approve. Second , regularly search for potentially harmful information about yourself that may have been posted by mistake or by a disgruntled (不满的)former associate. Thrid, never post obviously offensive material will likely make its way to the wider world. By taking these simple steps, members of the digital world can realize the many benefits of e-community without experiencing some of the damaging unintended consequences. 1.The main purpose of the passage is to _____. A. explain the growth of the digital world from the view of privacy B. discuss the risks of the digital world and suggest ways to protect yourself C. propose steps Facebook, MySpace and Google can take to protect user privacy D. illustrate(说明) potential unintended uses of private information 2.The writer implies that users should take all of the following actions to protect their online privacy EXCEPT _____. A. know to whom you make your online information available B. actively hunt for damaging information posted about you or under your name C. speak with employers to inform them of any misinformation published about you D. avoid uploading information that would be extremely damaging if it were discovered 3.According to the passage, which of the following does the author imply? A. Information obtained unwillingly from the Internet is permitted in court. B. It is impossible to protect yourself from unintended uses of information online. C. Even if you restrict who can view your data, the government may still access it. D. Done properly, posting offensive information about oneself brings no risk. 4.In the last paragraph the author mainly _____. A. offers detailed examples to support previous viewpoints B. further explores the ill-effects of the Internet on the protection of privacy C. summarizes the points of the above paragraphs D. provides suggestions to overcome the previously mentioned problems
