John Smith was lazy. He had finished his education and was happy to sit in his room and listen to the radio all day long. In fact, he had been doing nothing for almost six months, which worried his father a lot. One day Mr Smith decided that he had to do something. “Johnny. When I was your age I was working and supporting my ten brothers and sisters. I want you to go out and get a job.” So that was what he did. In fact, in the next three months, Johnny started ten jobs and was fired from ten jobs. He explained to his father. “They wanted me to be at work at 8:00 a. m. and told me to do all sorts of unpleasant things.” “I don’t care how you do it,” Mr Smith said. “Either you earn some money or move out of the house.

Send me $ 5 and I’ll tell you my secret.’ When I received the money I wrote back telling people to do as I do.” Johnny was fined $ 250 by the court and was ordered to pay all the people back.

When we see well, we do not think about our eyes very often. It is only when we cannot see perfectly that we realize how important our eyes are. People who are near-sighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes. Everything else seems unclear. Many people who do a lot of work, such as writing, reading and sewing become near-sighted. Then people who are far-sighted endure just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty in reading a book unless they hold it at arm’s length. If they want to do much reading, they must get glasses, too. Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. They have what is called astigmatism（散光）. This, too, can be corrected by glasses. Some people’s eyes become cloudy because of cataracts（白内障）. Long ago these people often became blind. Now however, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove then. Having two good eyes is important for judging distances. Each eye sees things from a slightly different angle（角度）. To prove this to yourself, look at an object out of one eye; then look at the same object out of your other eye. You will find the object’s relation to the background and other things around it has changed. The difference between these two different eye views helps us to judge how far away an object is. People who have only one eye cannot judge distance as people with two eyes. 1.We should take good care of our eyes . A. only when we can see well B. only when we cannot see perfectly C. only when we are near-sighted or far-sighted D. even if we can see well or perfectly 2.When things far away seem unclear, one is probably . A. near-sightedB. far-sighted C. astigmatic D. suffering from cataracts 3.The underlined word endure in the third paragraph probably means . A. experience B. imagineC. suffer from D. recover from 4.Having two eyes instead of one is particularly useful for . A. seeing at night B. seeing objects far away C. looking over a wide area D. judging distances 5.People who suffer from astigmatism have . A. one eye bigger than the other B. eyes that are not exactly the right shape C. a difficulty that can be corrected by an operation D. an eye difficult that cannot be corrected by glasses.

Most musicians agree that the best violins were made in Cremona, Italy, about 200 years ago. They even sound better than violins made today. Violin makers and scientists try to make instruments like the old Italian violins. But they aren’t the same. Why are these old Italian violins so special? Many people think they have an answer. Some people think it is the age of the violins. But there is a problem here. Not all old violins sound wonderful. Only those from Cremona are special. So age cannot be the answer. Other people think the secret to those violins is the wood. The wood of the violin is very important. It must be from certain kinds of trees. It must not be too young or too old. Perhaps the violin makers of Cremona knew something special about wood for violins. But the kind of wood may not be so important. It may be more important to cut the wood in a special way. Wood for a violin must be cut very carefully. It has to be the right size and shape. The smallest difference will change the sound of the violin. Musicians sometimes think that this is the secret of the Italians. Size and shape may not be the answer either. Scientists make new violins that are exactly the same size and shape. But the new violins still do not sound as good as the old one. Some scientists think the secret may be the varnish(清漆), which covers the wood of the violin and makes it look shiny. It also helps the sound of the instrument. Since no one knows what the Italian violin makers used in their varnish, no one can make the same varnish today. There may never be other violins like the violins of Cremona. And there are not many of the old violins left. So these old violins are becoming more and more precious. 1.What would be the best title for the passage? A. The Secrets of Cremona Violins B. The History of Italian Violins C. Special Musical Instruments D. How to Make the Best Violins 2.The main purpose of the first paragraph is to_______________. A. list some facts B. raise a question C. give an opinion D. offer an answer 3.What is still unclear about Cremona violins according to the writer? A. The shape. B. The size. C. The wood. D. The varnish. 4.Which of the following words can best describe Cremona violins? A. Light. B. Shining. C. Valuable. D. Modern. 5.What can we learn from this passage? A. Modern things are always better than ancient ones. B. Ancient things are always better than modern ones. C. Once a cultural relic is lost, it can never be recovered. D. Varnish for violins will become more and more precious.

阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到相应的位置上（请注意问题后的词数要求）。 Today, millions of people want to learn or improve their English, but ‘it’ is difficult to find the best method. Is it better to study in Britain or America or to study in your own country? The advantages of going to Britain seem obvious. Firstly, you will be able to listen to the language all the time you are in the country. You will be surrounded completely by the language wherever you go. Another advantage is that you have to speak the language if you are with other people. On the other hand, of staying at home to study. You don’t have to make big changes to your life. As well as this,it is also a lot cheaper than going to Britain. So I think that if you have enough time and enough money, the best choice is to spend some time in the UK. But this is not possible for most people, so the most important thing to do in this situation is to catch your opportunities: to speak only English in class and to try to use English whenever possible outside the class. 1.What is the text mainly about?（no more than 10 words）
