Brownie and Spotty were neighbor dogs who met every day to play together. Like pairs of dogs you  36  find in most any neighborhood, these two loved each other and played  37  so often that they had worn a path through the grass of the field between their own houses.
One evening, Brownie’s family  38  that Brownie hadn’t returned home. They went looking for him with no  39 .Brownie didn’t appear the next day, and, despite their  40 to find him, by the next week he was still missing.
Curiously, Spotty  41  at Brownie’s house alone, barking. Busy with their own lives, they just ignored(不理睬)the  42  little neighbor dog.
Finally, one morning Spotty  43  to take “no” for an answer. Spotty followed Ted about, barking strongly, then running towards a nearby wood, as if to say “ 44  me! It’s urgent!”
Finally, Ted followed the anxious Spotty. The little dog led the man to a  45  spot a half mile from the house. There Ted found his beloved Brownie  46 , one of his hind legs stuck in a steel leg hold trap. Horrified, Ted now wished he’d taken Spotty’s earlier requirement  47 .Then Ted noticed something quite remarkable.
Spotty had done more than simply  48  Brownie’s human owner to his trapped friend. In a circle around the  49  dog. Ted found some dog food---which was later  50  as the remains of every meal Spotty had been fed that  516  !
Spotty had been visiting Brownie  52 , in a single-minded quest to keep his friend alive by offering his own comfort. Spotty had obviously stayed with Brownie to protect him from being hurt, snuggling(依偎) with him at night to keep him  53  and touching him gently with its nose to keep his spirits up.
Brownie’s leg was treated by a veterinarian and he re-covered. For many years afterward, the two  54  watched the faithful friends frolicking(嬉戲) 55  chasing each other down that well-worn path between their houses.

Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis was one of the most private women in the world, yet when she went to work as an editor in the last two decades of her life, she revealed（展現(xiàn)）herself as she did nowhere else.
After the death of her second husband, Greek shipping magnate（巨頭）Aristotle Onassis, Jacqueline’s close friend and former White House social secretary Letitia Baldrige made a suggestion that she consider a career（職業(yè)）in publishing. After consideration, Jacqueline accepted it. Perhaps she hoped to find there some idea about how to live her own life. She became not less but more interested in reading. For the last 20 years of her life, Jacqueline worked as a publisher’s editor, first at Viking, then at Doubleday, pursuing（追求）a late-life career longer than her two marriages combined. During her time in publishing, she was responsible for managing and editing more than 100 successfully marketed books. Among the first books were In the Russian Style and Inventive Paris Clothes. She also succeeded in persuading TV hosts Bill Moyer’s and Jose Campbell to transform their popular television conversations into a book, The Power of Myth. The book went on to become an international best-seller. She dealt, too, with Michael Jackson as he prepared his autobiography（自傳）, Moonwalk.
Jacqueline may have been hired for name and for her social relations, but she soon proved her worth. Her choices, suggestions and widespread social relations were of benefit both to the publishing firms and to Jacqueline herself. In the books she selected for publication, she built on a lifetime of spending time by herself as a reader and left a record of the growth of her mind. Her books are the autobiography she never wrote. Her role as First Lady, in the end, was overshadowed by her performance as an editor. However, few knew that she had achieved so much.

A．because fond of reading after working as an editor
B．was in charge of publishing 100 books
C．promoted her books through social relations
D．gained a lot from her career as an editor
小題2:The underlined sentence in the last paragraph probably means that_________
A．Jacqueline ended up as an editor rather as First Lady
B．Jacqueline’s life as First Lady was more colorful than as an editor
C．Jacqueline was more successful as an editor than as First Lady
D．Jacqueline’s role as First Lady was more brilliant than as an editor
小題3:What can be inferred from the passage?
A．Jacqueline’s two marriages lasted more than 20 years
B．Jacqueline’s own publishing firm was set up eventually
C．Jacqueline’s views and beliefs were reflected in the books she edited
D．Jacqueline’s achievements were widely known.

When I looked at the grade on my math paper my jaw almost dropped to the ground: a big “65” in bright red ink. I had never received such a terrible grade before.
I was so ashamed that when I got home that afternoon I lied to my dad. I told him I got 85 and that the report wouldn’t come until the end of the month. Dad smiled. His daughter would never lie about her grade, so he didn’t doubt the unusual delay of my report.
A month later, Dad casually asked me again about the report at the dinner table. He looked right into my eyes and asked for an answer. Having no choice, I told him that I had in fact got just 65 in my math final. I had lied because I didn’t want to let him down.
For a moment, he just looked at me. I would have preferred a telling off than that silence. Finally, Dad said, in a hurt voice, “You have already let me down, with your lie. I am not disappointed at your math score. That is no big deal – no one can be perfect all the time. But I am very disappointed in you. If you can’t be honest with your dad, who can you be honest with? It’s much easier to achieve a better grade than rebuild someone else’s trust in you.”
Dad’s words touched my heart. I couldn’t forgive myself for having hurt his feelings. I took out the report that I had been hiding for weeks, handed to him and apologized, sincerely. I realized that my honesty is not only important to me personally, but to those around me that truly care about my well-being.
In one of Shakespeare’s plays a character says: “No legacy is so rich as honesty.” After the crisis between Dad and me, I began to understand those words.
小題1:.The first paragraph may suggest that the author ______.
A．was punished by her father for a bad grade
B．never expected teachers to give her bad grades
C．usually got a higher grade
D．was bad at math
小題2:. The author lied to her father because ______.
A．she thought her father would believe her story
B．she didn’t want to let her father down
C．her father wouldn’t get her grade report
D．her father got angry whenever she got a poor grade
小題3:. Why did her father stay silent after his daughter told him that she had lied?
A．He didn’t understand what his daughter had said.
B．He was angry that his daughter lied to him again.
C．He was unhappy with his daughter’s bad score.
D．He was hurt that his daughter had lied to him.
小題4:. The purpose of the article is to tell us that ______.
A．dishonesty may work sometimes, but there is a price to pay

The house was quiet at 5 a.m. and Tim’s mother was asleep. Only the sound of the big freezer broke the quiet. He dreamt of the cave last night. The purring (輕微顫動聲) of the freezer had been the sea.
Tim pulled on a sweater and put some apples into his schoolbag. It was too early for breakfast. He’d eat after he’d been through the cave, sitting on the rocks and staring at the sea.
He wished he had a proper pack. His schoolbag would have to do. What else? Sandwiches—but his mother might wake up if he started pulling out bread for sandwiches, she’d want to know why he had to leave so early. He settled for some biscuits, and left a note stuck to the table:
Gone to Michael’s. Back tonight. Tim.
The sky was high and soft and light outside, though the sun still wasn’t up. Even the highway up the hill was quiet as he made his way down the street. The wind from the sea was fresh and sweet.
The sand hills still breathed heat from yesterday’s sun, though the top of the sand was cool. He ran down to the beach impatiently, but there was no one, just dry sand dancing in the early wind and seabirds marching up and down watching the waves. The light changed suddenly. The first rays of sunlight stretched across the sea. The sun was pushing its way over the edge of the world.
Over the first rocks, along to the point, Tim glanced back. The beach was still empty. The sun sailed higher in the sky.
He could see the cave now, even darker in the morning light. The sand turned silver then dark gold as the water flowed away from it. He had to force himself to go closer. Why was it so much more mysterious now? But it would be silly to go back now after so much trouble. He needn’t go in all the way...
小題1:. What did Tim do at the beginning of the story?
A．He left the house quietly.B．He had breakfast at home
C．He left a note on the freezer.D．He put a sweater in his schoolbag.
小題2:. “He settled for some biscuits” in paragraph 3 means that Tim ___.
A．had to leave the biscuits on the tableB．liked biscuits better than sandwiches
C．had to take biscuits instead of sandwichesD．could only find some biscuits in the kitchen
小題3:. What made it possible for Tim to see the entry to the cave?
A．The height of the first rocksB．The ups and downs of the waves
C．The change in the position of the sun.D．The vast stretch of the sunlit beach
小題4:. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the story?
A．The sea looked like a piece of gold.B．Seabirds flew away when Tim arrived.
C．Tim was the only person on the beach.D．The sky got dark as Tim reached the cave.
小題5:.. In the story, Tim’s mood changed from ___.
A．loneliness to crazinessB．a(chǎn)nxiousness to excitement

In 1981, there were more than 1.3 million elephants in Africa. But in 1991, that number was cut down to 600,000. African elephants are hunted for their valuable ivory tusks(象牙). More have been killed by poachers(偷獵者). Poachers are hunters who kill animals illegally. An adult(成年) elephant eats as much as 300 pounds a day. In their search for food, elephants often move great distances. When they cannot find the grasses they prefer, they may strip(剝光) the land of trees.
Today, the area in which elephants herds live is smaller than it used to be. Many areas in their path have been turned into farms. And some elephants have been killed by farmers for trampling(踐踏)their crops.
What can we do here in our country about a threatened animal that lives so far away? Our government has passed a law to protect it. People cannot import or bring in items made from ivory or any part of the elephant’s body.
Most countries throughout the world have also stopped ivory imports. It is hoped that the ban(禁令) on the sale of ivory will help save the African elephant. But the world’s largest land animal needs other help. The countries where these animals live are often poor and unable to manage the herds. If the elephant is to survive, this animal is going to need our support for many years to come.
小題1:The number of the elephant in Africa in 1991 was      .
A．the same as that ten years agoB．more than that ten years ago
C．a(chǎn) little less than half of that in 1981D．a(chǎn) little more than half of that in 1981
小題2:African elephants have been killed mainly because _____.
A．they eat a lotB．they have beautiful tusks
C．poachers kill for funD．there are too many of them
小題3: The areas where African elephants live are much smaller today because ___.
A．they tend to live in herds
B．there are not so many of them today
C．many of these areas have been turned into farms
D．farmers have been killing them to save their crops
小題4:It is mentioned in the passage that our country has ____.
A．officially stopped ivory imports
B．banned the killing of elephants in Africa
C．threatened the elephants that live far away
D．helped the African countries where elephants live
小題5: Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A．Poachers have a license(執(zhí)照) to hunt for animals.
B．Elephants do a lot of good for the farmers in Africa.
C．We live too far away to help to save the African elephants.
D．The African elephant needs the world’s support for its survival
