Every day, it is easy to see advertisements in English all around us. Look at your own bags and clothes of your classmates. How many different advertisements can you see which use English words? Often, bags and clothes show the name of company that made them. This is a popular form. A special picture or symbol (标志) called a logo is sometimes used. Logos appear on many different products. They are popular because when you see a logo, it helps you to remember that product or company. It is common to see advertisements on TV and hear them on the radio. Most advertisements are very short. Sometimes the advertisers use a short sentence and it is easy for people to say. Nike, for example, has a simple English sentence which is used all around the world: “Just do it.” Advertisements often use funny situations as well. It is simple to remember it. All advertisements are designed to make people buy a product. An advertisement for a soft drink, for example, might show a group of young people who are having fun. The young people are all drinking the soft drink. Advertisements are saying to you, “Why don’t you buy this drink and be like these people? You can be young and modern.” You might think that advertisements are not for you, but the next time you buy a soft drink, ask yourself this question: Why am I buying this particular product?

Have you ever had a science class that you look forward to? It doesn’t happen often. But when you have a teacher like Mrs. Rheineck, it’s more than a science class. It’s a science class where learning is easy and fun. There is no getting down to a huge textbook or listening to a teacher about something you don’t care about.
My experience with Mrs. Rheineck didn’t start with science class, but with her as my tutor(导师,家庭教师). I was always a weak reader and wasn’t getting any better. My parents told me I needed to be tutored.
One day after school, I went into the library with my mom for my first tutoring time. I had no idea who was tutoring me. My mom practically had to pull me into the library. The first thing we did was to play a game to get to know each other and get rid of the awkwardness (笨拙,尴尬). We didn’t even play a reading game.
We also went around the library and I got to pick out a book I wanted to read. She didn’t make me read a boring textbook about something I didn’t care about. I didn’t even pick a book. I picked out a magazine about remote control cars. I thought to myself, how bad could it be? I got to read about remote control cars. She told me even though I was reading a magazine, I was still reading. After the first magazine, she picked out a book she liked. I would read a chapter(章) and then she would read a chapter to me, this way I didn’t have to read for long periods of time.
As I got better and faster at reading, I was able to read two chapters in the same amount of time, which used to take me to read one chapter.
Reading is one of the most important things in high school and college to be successful. If it wasn’t for her, I would not be the reader I am today and I thank her for that.
小题1:Why was the writer tutored by Mrs. Rheineck?
A.Because the writer was too shy to talk with others.
B.Because the writer found science easy and fun.
C.Because the writer liked her science class.
D.Because the writer couldn’t read books quickly.
小题2: It can be inferred from the third paragraph that __________.
A.the writer went to the library to play a game
B.the writer was unhappy to be tutored
C.the writer knew Mrs. Rheineck very well
D.the writer was awkward to read in the library
小题3:At the library, the writer __________.
A.chose any book he was interested in
B.played a reading game with Mrs. Rheineck
C.was asked to read one chapter after another
D.had to read textbooks rather than magazines

It was 3:43. Thunder was crashing and the rain was pouring. Suddenly my father rushed into my room. “Adam! Adam! Get up! We’re flooding!” he shouted and shook me by the shoulders. That woke    up! I ran downstairs to the basement. It was like a swimming pool. My mother and I immediately started to pick up things and take them upstairs. I had no      on, so my feet were quite freezing.
Things got worse every minute. Within the next hour, we had moved everything that we could to the first floor. The computer, big-screen television and heavy boxes       with our most valuable things were taken to safety.       , our piano, sofa, washing machine and water heater were all still down there—being       . There was nothing we could do.
That was the hardest part. Knowing that your home is being destroyed is bad enough, but       that you can’t do anything to stop it feels even worse.
Water had come in our front door. Rescue      were floating in our streets. Mother told me to pack an overnight bag of clothes and valuables and get ready to leave.
When it was        safe to walk outside, all the people in the neighborhood        at the street corner. People became friends, and friends became like family. People      each other. We learned later that the National Weather Service had declared the storm a flash flood.
I really have      something from this flood. I’ve learned what destruction is. I have learned what       means. I know in the future, when I watch people’ s lives affected by natural disasters, I can understand them. I will show great pity on them and I will do what I can to help them.
