| 阅读理解。 | On a Friday night in New York, a poor young man called Jay stood near the subway station, playing
his violin. The music was so great that many people slowed down and put some money into his hat.
The next day, Jay came again. He took out a large piece of paper and laid it on the ground. Then he began
playing. It seemed more pleasant to listen to. Before long, many people came, looking at the paper. It said,
"Last night, a gentleman named George Sang put an important thing into my hat. Please come to claim. (认领)
it soon."
Seeing this, people wondered what it could be. After about half an hour, a middle-aged man rushed
through the crowd to the young man and said, "I"m the George. I knew you"d surely come here!"
Then George explained the whole story. He bought a lottery ticket a few days ago. Yesterday he found
that he won a prize of $ 500,000. He was very excited. On his way home, he felt the music was so wonderful
that he took out $100 and put it in the hat. However, the lottery ticket with his name on was also thrown in.
Jay was a student at an arts school in Paris. He had booked the flight and would fly that morning.
However, when he happened to find the ticket holder had won the lottery, he cancelled (取消) the flight and
came back to the subway station.
Later someone asked Jay, "Why didn"t you take the lottery ticket for yourself?" He said, "Although I don"t
have much money, I live happily; but if I lose honesty, I won"t be happy forever." | | 1. On a Friday night in ______, Jay played his violin near the subway station. | A. New York

(北极地区). He was planning to walk to the North Pole all by himself, pulling his food, tent (帐篷) and
other things behind him in two sledges (雪橇). Because the Arctic is covered with ice and water, he would
sometimes have to sit on his sledges and use them like a boat!
Before he started his journey, to make himself stronger, Jeff spent 2 years practicing running and took
part in many boat races. He had also traveled in the Arctic for 28 years. All of this was good for him. But
there was still trouble.
Jeff was seven days into his journey in the Arctic. It was dark and terribly cold (-35℃). In face of this
terribly low temperature, he had made good progress across the ice. Suddenly, the ice broke and one of his
sledges fell into the sea. Jeff needed to get it back, so he had to put his hand into the ice-covered water.
Once he had got the sledge back, Jeff put up his tent, lit a fire and tried to warm up his cold hand. It was
no help-his hand was seriously hurt as it had been in the cold for so long. He radioed for help, and an airplane
was sent to save him. Finally, he arrived at a hospital in Canada. The doctors there said he hurt his left hand
in the icy water. They saved his hand and advised him not to travel to the North Pole alone any more.
But Jeff was an explorer and nobody could change his mind. It would be yet another long and difficult
challenge for Jeff soon. | | 1. Jeff started to travel in the Arctic in . | A. 1970

B. He lit a fire near the tent.
C. He warmed up his hand.
D. He put up his tent. | | 4. What can we infer (推断) from the last sentence of the article? | A. Jeff would practice more for the next journey.
B. Jeff would explore another part of the Arctic.
C. Jeff would try his best to realize his wish.
D. Jeff would refuse to take any advice. | | 完形填空。 | One day the bathroom door had slammed on Timmy"s finger. The doctor asked if we had found the tip

have a cold, can you tell?" she wrote. ) Then she sent her fingerprint. ( "So you"ll recognize me in a crowd.")
Julien sent me breakfast, all right: cornflakes. Soggy, milky, grainy, crumbly, limp cornflakes scraped from
the bottom of her cereal bowl. I lost my appetite, but I read the letter.
Dear Caitlin,
These cornflakes were so nutritious that, wanted to share this high-fiber, low-sodium,
just-three-calories, balanced breakfast with you.
Enjoy,
Julien
