阅读理解。     I come from a city on the United States"east coast. It"s a ten-hour flight for me to get home from Shanghai. When I got off the plane, I took photos of the blue sky and white clouds along the way. After two weeks, I
returned to Shanghai. Much to my surprise, the blue sky in Shanghai that I liked before was not as blue as that
in the US. I couldn"t help wondering what had happened.
      A few days later, I went to tour Waitan (a famous tourist attraction in Shanghai) by the Huangpu River with some of my friends. There we saw five Ferrari sports cars by the side of the road. The red and yellow cars looked so nice that everyone was looking at them. However, when I turned my head, I noticed the sky over Waitan, I was shocked to find that the buildings in the Lujiazui area on the other side of Huangpu River could hardly be
seen. It was then that I realized that Ferrari cars could be bought with money, but a blue sky couldn"t.
     Shanghai is an important economic (经济的) and trade center in China. It has made great contributions (贡献) to the whole nation"s economic development. However, we need to protect the environment during
economic growth. Pollution is poisoning our air and our rivers. Without clean air and rivers, how will people be
able to survive? 1. The author mentioned the Ferrari sports cars in order to _____. A. tell us that Shanghai is a developed city
B. ask us to stop driving sports cars
C. tell us how much people like cars
D. focus our attention on air pollution 2. What can we learn about the author?A. He comes from Shanghai.
B. He likes to visit different places.
C. He wants to buy a Ferrari sports car.
D. He is socially responsible (责任). 3. Who might be interested in this passage? A. Those who love Ferrari sports cars.
B. Those who care about the environment.
C. Those who want to travel in Shanghai.
D. Those who like to take photos. 4. What is the best title for this passage? A. Money Can Buy Ferraris, But Not a Blue Sky
B. Where People Should Live
C. Different Opinions on Cars
D. Different Places Have Different Skies

     An expensive car speeding down the main street of a small town was soon caught up with by a young
motorcycle policeman. As he started to make out the ticket, the woman behind the wheel said proudly,"Before
you go any further, young man, I think you should know that the mayor of this city is a good friend of mine."
The officer did not say a word, but kept writing."I am also a friend of chief of police Barens," continued the
woman, getting more angry each moment, Still he kept on writing. "Young man," she persisted, "I know Judge
Lawson and State Senator (参议员) Patton." Handing the ticket to the woman, the officer asked pleasantly,
"Tell me, do you know Bill Bronson."

     Once there was a young woman who didn"t like her job. Every day when she came home from work, she
told her husband how terrible her day had been, how tiring the work and how unreasonable her boss. "Leave
that job," her husband told her.
     "Oh, I will," she said."But not yet. I have too many friends there for me to leave." And so she remained
unhappy at work until the years became decades and her children had children."Leave that job", her grandchildren told her."Oh, I will," she said."But not yet. There are only seven more years until I reach thirty years of service and can retire. So I can"t just yet."
     I know this woman. And her story reminds me of an old dog half asleep on the porch of a general store,
moaning and groaning in the sun."Why is your dog acting that way?" a customer asked the store owner." Oh",
answered the man,"He"s lying on a nail." "Well, why doesn"t he move?""Because it"s not hurting him bad
enough."
     That"s true for people, too. We convince ourselves the pain is not bad enough to leave the workplace we
know. But we are wrong. Prolonged work pain is continuing. Some work pain damages our self-esteem, kills
our passion or destroys our dreams.
     Wilbur Wright once commented,"We could hardly wait to get up in the morning. I know that exhilarating
feeling of being so passionate about something I was working on that I couldn"t wait to get back to work. And
people who are winning at working know that kind of passion, too." They get excited about work.
     They offer their unique gifts and talents eagerly. And when things don"t change as they sometimes will, they
refuse to let environment hijack their self-esteem, passion or dreams.
1. The woman complained to her husband every day because_______.
A. she didn"t have enough money to support her family
B. her boss criticized her for what she had done
C. she was not satisfied with her job at all
D. her work was difficult and her boss was cruel
2. The author mentioned the old dog in order to tell us that _______.
A. it was deeply hurt by its owner
B. the woman is like the dog on the nail
C. it is tied firmly to a nail by its owner
D. it should be injured badly enough
3. The underlined word" Prolonged"( in Paragraph 4) means________.
A. lasting
B. slight
C. serious
D. hard
4. People who are getting along well with their work ________.
A. have to get up early every day
