     Shoppers who carefully plan their visit to the grocery store can save money on their grocery bills.
    1   
     Shoppers should visit the grocery store on a full stomach by scheduling their trip immediately after
a large meal. If that's not possible, they should find something healthy to eat while preparing a grocery list.   2  
     Although having a list and sticking to it is the most important  factor  in  saving  money, shoppers  
must prepare lists wisely in order to save.   3   Many special buys are announced through the local
newspapers, so buying the "grocery issue"is worth the investment(投資). However, it's important to
remember that many newer, more expensive products first offered through coupons may not yield enough
savings for shoppers to give up the product they usually buy.
        4    Once at the store, the shopper who wants to save money  should  follow  a  few  more  rules.
The shopper should not stay longer than necessary,because bills go up each minute the shopper is in the
store. So, setting a time limit and a cost limit can hold down the bill.    5   If the grocery list is a short one,
some shoppers choose to use the small handheld basket instead of the roomy grocery cart.

A. A carefully planned list should include in season    produce and any items on sale or discounted
     through  coupons (優(yōu)惠券).
B. Of course, the shopper should stick strictly to the    shopping list and resist the temptation to buy
     additional items.
C. People who are full are less tired and more likely to    buy what they want.
D. Now that the shopper has completed the grocery list,it's time to leave for the store.
E. You should keep your shopping list carefully in case     you can exchange it for coupons.
F. Most shoppers are less persuaded to buy extra goods     when they are not hungry.
G. Shopping when not hungry, sticking to a grocery list,and following a few simple rules will cut
     down the grocery bill.

     The King of Rock and Roll, Elvis Aron Presley was born on 8 January 1935 in Tupelo. His talent in
singing did not come up as a surprise, as he had a good voice right from his childhood. When Elvis was
ten years old, he participated in a Talent Contest at Mississippi-Alabama Fair and Dairy Show and won
a prize for the song he sang.
     When Elvis was 13 years old, his family moved to Tennessee. To support himself and his father, Elvis
took on a job as a truck driver. A disc containing two ballads (民歌) that Elvis had recorded for his
mother as a birthday gift was first heard by Sun Studio's president Sam Phillips. After listening to Elvis,
Sam made Elvis an offer and that was the birth of a new singing sensation (鼓動(dòng)的人物); a new
superstar was born. In 1954 his first record was released from Sun Studio.
     In 1955, Elvis singed a $35,000 recording contract with RCA Victor (through Thomas Parker), who
promised to help in projecting Elvis Presley (a Local Star) as a National Level Star. As promised, Elvis
was shown in newspapers, television appearances, photographs where he was claimed to be the next
superstar of the music world.
     In 1956, his first performance with "Heartbreak Hotel" on The Milton Berle Show successfully put
Elvis on the top list of the superstars and the nationwide "Elvis Craze" was started. Elvis became the
prince who ruled hearts of his millions of fans.
     In 1960, he quit performing in concerts and concentrated in making movies. As his first movie Love
Me Tender was a big hit, he had no problem in marking his comeback in movies.
After making several very successful and hit movies, Elvis returned to the world of music. In 1968, Elvis
once again started working with his old band and gave some more smashing (極好的) hits to the world.
In 1972, he released his last top-ten single Burning Love.
     It's nearly impossible to measure the level of popularity he had reached in his career. Elvis Presley
had more than 100 records on the billboard charts and out of which, about 18 records were on number
one position on the charts. During his lifetime, he worked in about 31 movies; all of them were huge
success.
1. What is the main idea of the text?
A. Elvis' great contribution to music.
B. How Elvis became the king of rock and roll.
C. Famous records that Elvis released in his lifetime.
D. An introduction to Elvis' life and his achievements.

A. Elvis was not as popular as before after stopping performing in concerts.
B. RCA Victor assisted Elvis in making his first movie a big hit.
C. Elvis' performance with "Heartbreak Hotel" started the "Elvis Craze".
D. Elvis had over 100 records on number one position on the charts.

     In 1970, tragedy struck the Gerstman family when Harvey and Carol Gerstman's daughter, Lisa
Beth, was killed in a summer camp bus accident. Because camp had been such a joy in Lisa Beth's life,
the Gerstmans wanted to start a foundation in her name. They wanted to bring that same summer camp
joy Lisa Beth felt to other children. When Lisa Beth's brother, Dan, heard the Cross Island YMCA
(CIYMCA) was looking for funds to help send physically disabled children to summer camp, he knew it
was the perfect way to keep Lisa Beth's memory alive.
     Dan soon learned that many disabled children spent the summer indoors while their ablebodied peers
enjoyed camp. The added costs of onetoone care and specialized busing for the disabled children
prevented them from being able to join in summer camp. The Gerstman family responded to this need
by setting up the Lisa Beth Gerstman Foundation in 2003. Its mission (使命) is to provide children with
physical disabilities the opportunity to attend camps in an integrated (綜合的) setting.
     During its first summer, the foundation teamed up with CIYMCA and funded 20 physically disabled
kids with varying degrees of disabilities. The children were given the opportunity to experience the joys
of summer camp, build lasting friendships and develop their selfconfidence.
     Over the last five years, the Lisa Beth Gerstman Foundation has been partnering with camps that are
willing to launch (發(fā)起) integrated programs that include wheelchair accessible transportation, onetoone
swimming instruction, adaptive physical education equipment and training, all in a caring environment
where the children join in all regular camp activities.Last summer, the foundation partnered with six
camps, which allowed a total of 150 physically disabled children to experience summer camp.
1. What stopped disabled kids from joining in summer camp according to the passage?
A. Some extra costs for it.
B. Lack of enough time
C. No permission from parents.
D. Lack of selfconfidence.
2. What's the purpose of setting up the Lisa Beth Gerstman Foundation?
A. To develop children's confidence.
B. To raise money for disabled children.
C. To organize summer camp for different people.
D. To make it possible for disabled children to attend camps.
3. According to the passage, the Lisa Beth Gerstman Foundation ________.

     Everyone's at it, even my neighbors. I thought I might be the only person left in the world who hadn't
done an eBay deal. So, I decided to try my hand at online auction (網(wǎng)上拍賣).
     Buying for beginners: Sign up on www. ebay. co. uk. Most items(e.g. tables, computers, and
books)ready for auction will come with a picture and a short description; others may be marked with "
Buy It Now " and have a fixed price. You can buy these right away.
     If the item is being auctioned, you offer the highest price you are prepared to pay and eBay bids
(出價(jià))for you. The bid will be increased little by little until it goes beyond your highest bid, then you are
emailed and asked if you would like to bid again. Auctions last up to 10 days and when they finish you
get an email telling you whether you have won the item.
     How to pay: Sellers decide how they would like to be paid and you need to check this before placing a bid as you might not want to post a check or postal orders. The easiest way is through PayPal, an online payment system that takes the money away from your credit card (信用卡).
     Selling made simple: If you plan to sell on eBay, it helps to include a picture of the item. I followed
my friends' advice and put up the items I wanted to sell for a 10-day auction, starting on a Thursday. This way buyers had two weekends to bid.
     The big things in life: It's easy to post a small item, but furniture is a big part of eBay and this has to
be collected or sent by delivery men. Check the ways of delivery before you bid.
1. What is the passage mainly about?
A. How to make payment online.
B. Ways of using delivery online.
C. Advantages of an online-auction system.
D. How to use an online-auction system.
2. After bidding for an item, a buyer __________.
A. will get what he wants in ten days
B. should make payment immediately
C. has chances to make higher bids
D. may check its picture and description
3. The easiest way of making payment mentioned in the passage is __________.
A. through an online payment system
B. through a local banking system
C. by sending the money to the seller
D. by paying the deliveryman directly

     Too many people want others to be their friends, but they don't give friendship back. That is
why some friendships do not last very long. To have a friend, you must learn to be one. You must
learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend treat you. Learning to be a good friend
means learning three rules. Be honest; be generous; be understanding.
     Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you do
not tell the truth, people usually find it out. If a friend finds out that you haven't been honest, you
may lose your friends' trust. Good friends always believe in one another as they always speak and
act honestly.
     Generosity means sharing, which makes a friendship grow. People do not have to give lunch
money for clothes, of course. Instead you have to learn how to share things you enjoy, like your
hobbies and your interest. Then, naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings. These
can be very valuable to a friend. They tell your friend what is important to you. By sharing them,
you help your friend know you better.
     Sooner or later, every one needs understanding and help with a problem. Something may go
wrong at school. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can
be a first step in solving the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand. You must
try to put yourself in your friend's place so you can understand the problem better.
     No two friendships are ever exactly alike. But all true friendships have three things in common.
If you plan to keep your friends, you must practice honesty, generosity, and understanding.

1. Some friendships don't last very long because _______.
A. there are too many people who want to make friends with others.
B. those who never give others friendships receive no friendship from others.
C. people usually find out the truth even if they are not told the truth.
D. they don't know friendship is something very serious to other people.
2. The underlined word "generous" means _______.
A. willing to give and share        
B. short of honor
C. soft and friendly    
D. ready to help others
3. According to the passage honesty is _______.
A. something very good            
B. the base of friendship
C. as important as money     
D. more important than anything
4. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A. Always tell your friend the truth that you have known.
B. Sharing your mind with your friend is of great value.
C. Discussing problems with your friends helps solve them.
D. A friend who gives you his lunch money is a true friend.

     The first weeks were a bit hard.Loneliness wasn't the problem-I was in constant contact with clients
by email and phone.But I did feel claustrophobic (患幽閉恐怖癥的). With wheels on my desk chair
and the refrigerator just two feet away,I could work for twelve straight hours without ever standing up.
There was no physical separation between my living room and work table,so the only way I found to feel
like I was going "home" at the end of the day was to forbid my use of the working chair.At ninethirty at
night,when I turned my computer off,I felt a bit like the family dog reaching the high point of its day,
"Whoohoo!I get to go for a walk!" Then,around eleventhirty,I'd find myself turning on the computer again
to solve some work issue that was preoccupying me...
     At the same time,I discovered that working this way had definite advantages.Not only did I save an
hour from going to work and back home,I also gained a great deal of control over my time.There were
fewer interruptions than in an office,I could schedule meetings and phone calls in blocks to increase the
productive time around them,and the easy access to my workspace late at night and on weekends could
obviously be of mixed effects.This was especially important to me since,in addition to consulting work,I
was writing fiction and planning a new business.Working at home allowed me to manage all of these
activities at once without losing significant sleep.This turned out to be well worth the claustrophobia,
which also faded as I became more used to the new routine.A short walk in the late afternoon could
reduce the shutin feeling and make me get energetic again to work through the evening.
     You might think that,with all this added time flexibility,I would even find a few hours to clean my
apartment,but,unfortunately,this never happened.

1. The writer felt claustrophobic because________.

A. she was lonely  
B. she worked long hours
C. she couldn't go for a walk  
D. she worked alone for long

2. Where does the writer work?

A. In her own home.  
B. In an office.
C. In a hospital.  
D. At a newspaper.

3. What does the writer think of working late at night and on weekends?

A. It was convenient for her.
B. It had advantages and disadvantages.
C. She didn't like it at all.
D. She enjoyed working late.

4. What's the writer's general attitude towards her work?

A. She didn't like it very much.
B. She enjoyed doing her work.
C. It allowed her little spare time.
D. It was too hard for her.
