A girl riding a bike hit and scratched(刮)a parked expensive car by accident when she was busily looking at a road sign. That poor girl was Zhang Yu, an 18-year-old college student from Yunnan Province. Instead of running away, she decided to wait for the owner of the car. The honest girl wanted to say sorry for the accident.
Zhang Yu was scared when Song Ming, the owner of the car, saw her standing beside his car. Knowing that she had waited in the hot sun for an hour and that she was from a poor family, he was deeply moved. He told her that she didn't need to pay any money for the scratched part of the car. Hearing the words, Zhang Yu bowed(鞠躬)at once and thanked Song Ming sincerely.
The heartwarming moment didn't end there. Li Qiang was the boss of the factory where Song Ming worked. After hearing what had happened, he was also deeply moved. He told the story to his workers and announced, "It is great that Song Ming didn't ask Zhang Yu to pay, and I would like to help her to complete her college education."
During the following three years, Zhang Yu made great efforts to study and took an active part in different activities to develop her abilities with the help of Li Qiang. By the time she left college, she had been an excellent student. Having competed with many others, she got a job at Li Qiang's factory. That excited her most.

Frank was a very talkative little boy. He never saw a new thing without asking a great many questions about it.
His mother was very patient and kind. When it was proper to answer his questions, she would do so. Sometimes she would say, “You are not old enough to understand that, my son. When you are ten years old, you may ask me about it, and I will tell you.” When his mother said this, Frank never bother(烦扰)her any more. He knew she always liked to answer him when he asked proper questions.
The first time Frank saw an hourglass, he was very much interested, but he did not know what it was. His mother said, “An hourglass is made in the shape of the figure 8. The sand is put in at one end and runs through a small hole in the middle. As much sand is put into the glass as will run through in an hour.”
Frank watched the little stream of sand. He was impatient, because it would not run faster. “Let me shake it, mother,” said he, “it is lazy, and will never get through.”
“Oh, yes, it will, my son,” said his mother, “The sand moves by little and little, but it moves all the time. When you look at the hands of the clock, you think they go very slowly, and so they do, but they never stop. While you are at play, the sand is running, grain by grain(一粒粒). The hands of the clock are moving, second by second. At night, the sand in the hourglass has run through twelve times. The hour hand of the clock has moved all around its great face. This because they keep at work every minute. They do not stop to think how much they have to do, and how long it will take them to do it.”
Now, Frank’s mother wanted him to learn a little hymn(赞美诗), but he said, “Mother, I can never learn it.”
His mother said, “Study all the time. Never stop to ask how long it will take to learn it. You will be able to say it very soon.”

Margaret Knight was born on February 14, 1838, in Maine. She lived during a time when factories were springing up all over the United States and business were booming. Her father died when she was 10 years old and began working in a textile mill(纺织厂).
When she was 12, Knight saw an accident in which a part of one of the marhines flew off, seriously hurting a worker. So she decided to plan a way to prevent such accidents. Knight designed a safety feature that would stop the machines if something got caught in them. The machine soon became common in textile mills and is still used in some factories now.
Although factories were willing to use her first invention, Knight did not receive much in the way of reward for her effort. Because of her youth and her family's lack of(缺乏)of education, Knight was unable to patent(获得专利)her safety machine to earn money from selling it.
In Knight's day, paper bags were shaped like envelopes(信封), which made them difficult to fill. While working at a paper bag factory, Knight thought of bags with flat, rectangular(长方形的)bottom. Then she tried to invent a machine that would produce them, and she succeeded.
Knight worked for months to perfect her work, but when she asked for a patent, a man named Charles Annan had seen an early model of Knight's idea and had tried to patent the machine as his own.
Knight insisted that the patent should be hers and ended up taking Annan to court(法庭). During the case; Annan said that a woman would not be able to invent such a complex and innovative(创新的)machine. But Knight provided evidence proving that the machine was hers and received patent in 1871.
Knight died in 1914, and one newspaper described her as a "woman Edison". At a time when women's hard work and knowledge were taken too lightly, she proved that women too could develop new ideas that would shape the future of industry.
1.Why didn't Margaret patent her safety machine at first?
A.She had no money to do it. B.She didn't consider it worth her effort.
C.She expected her invention to be of use to all. D.She had no sense of patent at that time.
2.We can infer from Margret's story that at Margret's time________ .
A.women didn't get well protected at work B.women got badly paid at factories
C.women weren't expected to achieve much D.women had no right to invent things
3.Why did the writer write the passage?
A.To tell the importance of role of women in society. B.To call on girls to learn from a woman scientist.
C.To encourage women to fight for equal rights. D.To introduce a famous woman inventor in America.
One day a ragged(衣衫槛楼的)beggar(乞丐)was creeping along from house to house. He carried an old wallet in one hand and at every house he asked for a little money to buy something to eat. As he was complaining at his misfortune(不幸),he kept wondering why people who had so much money were never satisfied and always wanted more.
He thought that if he only had enough money to buy food and clothing, he would be very happy and wouldn't want anything more.
At that moment, Fortune came down the street. She saw the beggar and stopped. She said to him:" I want to help you. Hold out your wallet and I will pour this gold into it, but only on this condition. All that falls into your wallet will be pure gold, but all that hits the ground will turn into dust. Do you understand?"
"Oh, yes I understand." said the beggar.
"Your wallet is old. Don't put too much in it," said Fortune.
The beggar opened his wallet and a stream of pure gold flowed into it. His wallet grew heavy.
"You are the richest man in the world now," said Fortune.“I think you should stop! Your wallet is going to break!" However, the beggar said he wanted one more handful. Fortune added one more handful and the wallet split. All the gold fell to the ground and turned to dust. The beggar had nothing but his empty wallet. He was as poor as he had been before.
1.What did the beggar want money for?
