阅读理解。     Ray"s wedding had gone off smoothly. Everyone seemed to have had a good time. A few people had
too good a time; they went home with designated (指派的) drivers. All evening, the gift table remained
unguarded. Who would steal anything, Ray thought. He had never heard of such a thing happening at a
wedding. But his best friend Aaron said there was a first time for everything. He strolled out regularly from the inside festivities (庆祝) to check on the gift table, making sure no one suspicious was hanging around
it. 
     Ray and Julia went on a 3-week honeymoon to Italy right after the wedding. When they got back, they opened all the gifts and sent out thank-you notes. But there was one problem. A married couple that used
to be good friends had apparently given nothing. This surprised Julia, because Walt and Mary said they were thrilled to be invited. And, they actually seemed to have had a great time at the wedding. Frankly, Ray
didn"t even care if they hadn"t given a gift. He just needed to know whether to send a thank-you note. Ray called Aaron. Aaron said maybe Walt had left an envelope on the gift table like Aaron had. "Yes, but we
got your envelope with the cash inside," Ray said.
   "Maybe my envelope looked too thin, and some thief thought Walt"s envelope looked nice and fat."
    Aaron asked Ray if he had looked everywhere for Walt"s gift. Had he called up the wedding site to see
if anything had been left behind? Ray said that he had looked everywhere and made a lot of calls that were fruitless.
     Ray didn"t know what to do. If he sent Walt and Mary a thank-you note for a gift they hadn"t given, they would be insulted. If he didn"t send them a thank-you note for a gift they had given, they would get angry.
   "What would you do?" Ray asked. Aaron said he would call Walt up and tell him the problem.
   "You can"t go wrong with simply being honest," Aaron said.
   "Oh, yes, you can," Ray contradicted(反驳)him. "Sometimes it"s best to let sleeping dogs lie." But he
thought about it, and finally decided that Aaron was right. He called Walt and told him the problem. Walt
said that yes, he had given an envelope. In fact, the envelope contained $500 cash.
   "$500?!" Ray asked. "That"s a lot of cash, Walt!" Walt admitted that it was, but he had gotten a fat raise(加薪) early that year and Ray"s was the only wedding he"d been to in quite a while. Ray thanked him very much, and apologized sincerely for someone stealing Walt"s generous gift. Walt told him that it was "only
money".
     When Ray told Aaron about Walt"s gift, Aaron laughed. "The only thief at the wedding was Walt! I quit playing cards with him last year because I caught him cheating. And it was only a $10 pot! I"m sure I told
you about that."
     "Yes, you did tell me," Ray said. But, of course, he had to send Walt a thank-you note anyway. 1. Which of the following is true according to the passage?  A. Nobody checked on the gift table all evening.   
B. Walt had surely gotten a fat raise early that year.
C. Stealing had never happened at a wedding.     
D. Aaron looked on honesty as the best policy.2. The underlined word "insulted" in Paragraph 5 probably means ________.   

A. deeply impressed  
B. badly hurt
C. much discouraged    
D. greatly moved

3. What kind of person is Ray?    A. Considerate and polite.          
B. Faithful and experienced.
C. Outgoing and determined.        
D. Friendly and optimistic.4. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?  A. A Wedding Party    
B. The Theft at the Wedding  
C. The Wedding Gift         
D. A Secret at the Wedding

阅读理解。     In spite of our efforts,we seemed to be getting no closer to Mary as the cold,boring March
days dragged by. Even my faith was wearing thin. My heart ached so desperately, wanting this
child with autism (自闭症) to come alive and be aware of the beauty, the wonder and the fun
even if she had the pain of living without her mother.
     Then on a late March day,one of the boys excitedly reported a robin (知更鸟) in the schoolyard.
We flocked to the window to see it. "Spring"s here!" the children cried. "Let"s make a flower border
for the room!"
     Why not? I thought. Anything to lift our spirits. This time the papers we selected were beautiful
pastel (颜料) colors,with brown strips to weave into baskets. I showed the children how to weave
the baskets and how to fashion all the flowers we welcome in early spring. I placed the beautifully
colored papers on her desk and encouraged her to try. Then I left the children to do their own
creating,and I spent, the next half-hour sorting strips of paper at the back of the room.
     Suddenly,Kristie came hurrying to me,her face red. "Come and see Mary"s basket," she cried.
"It"s so pretty! You"ll never believe it!" I caught my breath at its beauty. "Mary," I said ."This is
beautiful. How did you ever manage?" She looked at me with the shining eyes of any normal little girl.
"My mother loved flowers," she said simply. "She had all of these growing in our garden. "
     We fastened her basket in the very center of the border at the front of the room. It remained
there until school ended in June. On the last day,Mary held it carefully as she carried it out the door.
Then she came running back, pulled a paper crocus (番红花) from her basket and handed it to me.
"This is for you," she said, and she gave me a hug.
I"ve kept the crocus in my desk ever since-just to remind me of Mary and of the enduring power of
love and faith.1. What can we learn about the writer from the first paragraph?A. She didn"t want to get close to Mary.
B. She thought Mary should leave the school.
C. She considered that she had tried her best.
D. She was concerned about Mary.2. The writer had the children weave baskets to____.A. make them help Mary
B. develop their creativity
C. have a coffee break
D. talk to Mary about her condition3. From Kristie"s red face. we know she was ____.A. angry
B. frightened
C. depressed
D. excited 4. What can we infer from the underlined sentence in the fourth paragraph?A. Mary was seriously sick.
B. Mary wanted to please the writer.
C. Mary recovered from illness.
D. Mary was treated badly.5. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. A miracle has occurred
B. How lonely a girl will be
C. Why such a lovely girl is sick with autism
D. A great teacher and her students

阅读理解。     Like many other small boys, I was fascinated by cars, not least because my oldest brother
was a bit of a car guy and subscribed to cool magazines like Car and Driver and Motor Trend.
Every so often, one of those magazines would run an article on the "Car of the Future". They
featured unconventional styling and things like small nuclear reactors as power sources. Yet,
frankly, my car doesn"t do anything that my brother"s Studebaker didn"t do. It goes, it stops, it
burns gasoline, it plays music. I still have to steer it, and it still runs into things if I don"t steer it
carefully.
     But guess what? All of these things are subject to change in the not-so-distant future. It will
still go and stop, but it may not burn gasoline, I may not have to steer it, and it may be a lot better
at not running into things.
     Airbags aren"t the be-all and end-all in safety. In fact, considering the recent news about people
occasionally being killed by their airbags in low-speed collisions (碰撞),they obviously still need
some development. But they aren"t going away, and in fact, you can expect to see cars appearing
with additional, side-impact airbags, something some European car manufacturers already offer.
     Better than systems to minimize (使减少到最低限度) injury in the event of an accident,
however, are systems that minimize the likelihood of an accident happening in the first place. Future
cars may be able to eliminate many of the major causes of accidents, including drunk-driving,
tailgating (与前车距离过近) and sleepiness. Cars could be equipped with sensors that can detect
alcohol in a driver"s system and prevent the car from being started, for example. Many accidents
are caused by people following the car in front too closely. As early as next year, you"ll be able to
buy cars with radar-equipped control systems. If the radar determines you"re closing too quickly
with the car in front, it will ease up on the throttle (油门). For city streets, expect other radar devices
that will give advance warning that the car in front of you has slowed abruptly (突然地) and you
should step on the brakes-or that may even brake for you.
     Will cars eventually be able to drive themselves? There"s no reason to think it won"t be technically
possible, and Mercedes is working on a system that can brake, accelerate and steer a vehicle down
a highway on its own. Nobody really expects people to give up all control to their cars, but such
systems could be used as failsafe systems to keep cars on the road and bring them safely to a stop
even if the driver suddenly became disabled.1. Why was the author fascinated by cars?A. Because other small boys liked to own a car of their own, too.
B. Because he read exotic things about cars in his brother"s magazines.
C. Because his oldest brother loved to take him to places in his car.
D. Because he subscribed to cool car magazines.2. By saying "my car doesn"t do anything that my brother"s Studebaker didn"t do", the author
means that_____.A. my car is far better than my brother"s
B. my car is not as good as my brother"s
C. not much has changed in the performance of cars so far
D. much improvement has been made in the design of cars recently3. Which of the following statements is true of airbags?A. They are in need of further improvement.
B. They are going to disappear gradually.
C. They kill people instead of protecting them in low-speed collisions.
D. They are a standard feature of European cars.4. According to the author, what will future cars do if the sensors detect alcohol in the driver"s
system?A. They will give a warning in advance.
B. They will brake automatically.
C. They will ease up on the throttle.
D. They will not start.5. Which of the following statements is true according to the last paragraph?A. People will give up all control to their cars.
B. Cars will be able to drive themselves.
C. No cars will ever break down on the roads.
D. Cars will all be equipped with failsafe systems.

阅读理解。     My wife Julie and I were out on the road that runs around where we live. Two dog walkers passed
by and we heard one of them say, "Never seen that dog around here before."
     We looked down the hill and saw an old black dog stumbling(蹒跚) painfully up the hill. We bent
down, talked gently to the dog and patted it. I checked and there was a collar. There was a phone
number on the collar, but no one answered.
     The dog was painfully thin. It didn"t have many teeth left and, well, it just seemed done.
     Julie ran home to get some of our dog"s food while I tried to encourage the dog to come along with
me. Julie got home and back again when I was only half way there. So, we sat down on the sidewalk
while our new friend made short work of the food.
     Eventually we got her home. We gave her a blanket, more food, kept her warm and wondered what
to do next.
     After trying for many times we got a response from the number. A lady came around with a bunch
of flowers for us. She explained that Tara had been her father"s dog. She was very old and should
probably be put to sleep, but the lady just couldn"t bring herself to do it. So, Tara was safely returned
home.
     Here is the truth of the story:
     Actually Julie and I were out that morning because I was leaving. She was trying to persuade me to
come back, but I wasn"t hearing anything that made that sound likely.
     I was about to turn and go when an old, worn out dog walked between us and collapsed. Suddenly
we had something more important than our problem to worry about. There was a creature in need right
before us and we had to work together to help it.
     We did help it. And here am I writing the story in my own home, in my own family.
     In the song "Love Is Not a Fight" Warren Barfield talks about marriage. At one point he sings, "And
if we try to leave, may God send angels to guard the door."
     Sometimes angels come disguised (伪装) as dogs.1. Which of the following statements is true?A. The two dog walkers didn"t like the dog.
B. The old black dog was sick and weak and couldn"t walk.
C. After finding the dog, the writer phoned its owners.
D. Most of the dog"s teeth had been pulled out by someone.2. We can infer from Paragraph 4 that ________.A. Julie bought some food for the dog
B. the writer had his own pet dog
C. the dog didn"t go with the writer
D. the dog didn"t eat any of the food3. After they got the dog home, the couple ________.A. decided to raise the dog
B. took good care of the dog
C. found out that its owner was a lady
D. found it hard to get to sleep4. The underlined part "our problem" in the passage refers to the fact that ________.A. the writer didn"t want to take Julie"s advice
B. Julie disagreed with the writer"s travel on business
C. an old and worn out dog appeared in front of them
D. the couple had some trouble with their marriage5. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. A Helpful Couple.
