     You probably have lists of remember and steps to follow in order to have the best pet-friendly trip.
There are, however, a few things that are best left at home. Here are a few things to forget when you're
traveling with pets. Forgetting them will make your trip run more smoothly and more effectively.
     Time
     Traveling with pets will take longer and will have unexpected turns. In reality, forgetting about time
means leaving impatience behind. Don't be in a rush. Your pets will require more extra stops than you
will, and they'll often surprise you with unpredictable delays. Plan on leaving early and arriving later and
you'll be right on time.
     Anger
     Getting angry at the delay will only make matters worse. Your feelings can add unnecessary stresses
to you and your pets' travel experience. If you feel yourself becoming out of control, stop and take a
deep breath. Your pets have little control over their emotions, bowel movements, or motion sickness
when traveling. Remember to be kind and understanding at all times, especially when under pressure.
     Work Attitude
     This may seem like a no-brainer, but when you are traveling, leave your work attitude behind.
Traveling is not a task to be accomplished; it can be an enjoyable and memorable experience for both
you and your pets as long as you have the right attitude.
     Control
     Part of the joy of traveling with pets is dealing with the unexpected. You can't control everything and
trying to do so will only end in frustration and anger. Knowing that things will happen beyond your
control will bring great relief to you and your pets. Messes happen; accidents happen. Once you accept
that, traveling with your pets will be far easier to manage.
     Selfishness
     Traveling with pets often requires an extreme amount of selflessness. Your pets rely on you to take
care of their needs, and sometimes you will need to put their needs before your own. Leave your selfish
ambitions behind when traveling with your pets. They need your attention and care more than anything
else because of the stresses and strains of traveling.
     Traveling with pets can and will be a joy if you remember to leave these five items behind. It can be
difficult at times to handle, but the traveling will go well if you can manage to do so.
1. forget   2. smoother   3. leaving   4. delayed    5. hardly
6. bring    7. joyful      8. difficult     9. selfless     10. Conclusion

     No one knows who made the first ice cream. Some people think that water ices and milk ices may
have been made by the Chinese between three thousand and a thousand years ago. In that time, the dish
reached India. The Indians, in turn, many have passed on the secret to the Arabs and Persians.
     Marco Polo, an Italian who travelled widely in the thirteenth century, noted that he found the Chinese
had long been making ices out of fruit juices and milk. From the fourteenth century on, ices became
popular first in Venice and then throughout Italy.
     At first ice cream was a luxury (奢侈品) in France. Only rich people had the money to buy it. Then,
in 1660, a young man from Sicily, Francisco Procopio, arrived in Paris. He opened a shop that sold ice
cream at prices people could afford. Then his ice cream became so popular that other shops were
opened.
     About 1640, King Charles introduced ice cream to England and soon ice cream quickly became
popular in England too.
     American now eat more ice cream than any other people in the world. But they are not the only ones
who are fond of it. Greeks are also very fond of ice cream. In the large cities of Germany there are many
small shops that sell only ice cream. Ice cream shops are not as common as in England, although large
London stores do have soda fountains (冷飲部).
     Ice cream sodas first became popular sometime in the 1880s in the United States. In fact they soon
became too popular to suit some of the good people of Evanston, Illinois. They thought it was not proper
to drink soda on Sunday. A city law was passed to stop the ice cream soda on Sundays. To keep within
the law, it is said that one man served ice cream with syrup (糖水).
     Throughout its long history, ice cream has been a favorite dish. But only in this century has it been
made with so many different tastes. People today can select from more than 240 flavors.
       Topic The 1.______ of Ice Cream

     Doctors' moonlighting is becoming popular in hospitals around China. It has not only raised a lot of
heated discussions in the media,but also caught the attention of the central government in Beijing.    
     On December 26, a spokesman of the Miriistry of Health stressed that the Ministry was firmly
against doctors' moonlighting, while strict regulations should be applied to doctors taking part-time jobs,
the Xinhua News Agency reported.      
     Last year,the Ministry sent out a notice to a variety of health organizations to speed up the reform of
their personnel (人事)system. According to the notice, medical organizations can hire medical experts
as part-time doctors but such activities should take place under the hospital's management and
regulations (規(guī)定) .      
     As for moonlighting-meaning that the doctor provides medical service without the permission of the
original hospital-such activity goes against China's Practicing Doctor Law, Xinhua reported.    
     In China, doctors used to be controlled by hospitals and they could work for only one hospital.
However, as China's medical personnel system reform developed, it has been recognized that medical
human resources, just like human resources in other areas, should be shared by the whole society. But
on the other hand, doctors' taking part-time jobs should follow the relative regulations applied in the
medical field.      
     First of all, they should follow relative government laws and regulations. They should also follow the
rules and regulations set by the medical organizations they work for. In addition, they should pay taxes
for their income from the part-time jobs. What matters most is that they should first finish their regular
jobs as required and be responsible for patients to ensure qualified and safe medical treatment.
1. What is the greatest difference between moonlighting and taking part-time jobs?  
A. Doctors can earn more money by moonlighting than by taking part-time jobs.  
B. Doctors pay fewer taxes for the money made by moonlighting than by taking part-time jobs.  
C. Taking part-time jobs is permitted by hospitals while moonlighting is against the present regulations.  
D. Doctor's part-time jobs, instead of moonlighting, are encouraged by health organizations.
2. From this passage we know that doctors are allowed to _________nowadays.  
A. work for only one hospital  
B. work for more than one hospital  
C. work any time when they are free  
D. be out of control of hospitals
3. The passage is taken most probably from _________.  
A. a notice sent out by the Ministry of Health  
B. regulations made by health organizations  
C. China's Practicing Doctor Law  
D. a magazine or a newspaper

     The medical world is gradually realizing that the quality of the environment in hospitals may play a
significant role in the process of recovery from illness.
     As part of a nationwide effort in Britain to bring art out of the galleries and into public places, some
of the country's most talented artists have been called in to transform older hospitals and to soften the
hard edges of modern buildings. Of the 2,500 National Health Service hospitals in Britain, almost 100
now have significant collections of contemporary art in corridors, waiting areas and treatment rooms.
     These recent initiatives owe a great deal to one artist, Peter Senior, who set up his studio at a
Manchester hospital in northeastern England during the early 1970s. He felt the artist had lost his place
in modern society, and that art should be enjoyed by a wider audience.
     A typical hospital waiting room might have as many as 500 visitors each week. What better place to
hold regular exhibitions of art? Senior held the first exhibition of his own paintings in the out-patients
waiting area of the Manchester Royal Hospital in 1975. Believed to be Britain's first hospital artist,
Senior was so much in demand that he was soon joined by a team of six young art school graduates.
     The effect is striking. Now in the corridors and waiting rooms the visitor experiences a full view of
fresh colors, playful images and restful courtyards.
     The quality of the environment may reduce the need for expensive drugs when a patient is recovering
from an illness. A study has shown that patients who had a view onto a garden needed half the number
of strong pain killers compared with patients who had no view at all or only a brick wall to look at.

1. According to the passage, "to soften the hard edges of modern buildings" means ___________.
A. to pull down hospital buildings
B. to decorate hospitals with art collections
C. to improve the quality of treatment in hospitals
D. to make the corners of hospital buildings round

2. According to Peter Senior, _______.
A. art is losing its audience in modern society
B. art galleries should be changed into hospitals
C. patients should be encouraged to learn painting
D. art should be encouraged in British hospitals

3. After the improvement of the hospital environment, patients may _______.
A. no longer need drugs in their recovery
B. no longer depend wholly on expensive drugs
C. need good-quality drugs in their recovery
D. use more pain killers in their recovery

4. The fact that six young art school graduates joined Peter shows that_______.
A. Peter's enterprise is developing greatly
B. Peter Senior enjoys great popularity
C. they are talented hospital artists
D. the role of hospital environment is being recognized

     There are some differences in replying to compliment between Chinese and Americans. Americans
tend to accept the compliment while Chinese generally murmur(低語)some reply about not being worthy
of the praise. Here are two examples.
     A young Chinese woman in the U.S. was complimented for the lovely dress that she was wearing.
"It's graceful. The colors are so beautiful!" She was pleased but somewhat embarrassed. In typical
Chinese fashion, she replied, "Oh, it's just an ordinary dress that I bought in China."
     At a reception in an American college, a newly-arrived Chinese scholar was chatting with the hostess, who was an old friend. As an acquaintance(熟人)of hers came up, she said, "Ron, let me introduce
Mr. Chen, an outstanding physicist and one of the nicest people I know." Mr. Chen offered his hand to
the newcomer but looked at his hostess and said with a smile, "Should I feel ashamed, or should I tell him
you don't really mean it?"
     In both cases, the words of the Chinese conveyed a message quite different from what was intended.
In the case of the Chinese woman, the reply could have meant that the one paying the compliment did
not know what a really good dress is; otherwise, how could she get so excited about an ordinary dress?
The implication(暗示)was that the American woman's taste in clothing was questionable. In the second
case, if Chen had not been smiling, he could have meant "You're just saying that to be polite; you don't
really mean that." So in one case, the person had poor judgment. In the other case, the hostess was not
sincere. Quite a gap between intention and message!

1. Which word can best replace the underlined word compliment in Paragraph 1?
A. praise
B. complaint
C. explanation
D. blame

2. Two examples are given in the passage to           .
A. amuse the readers
B. draw readers' attention
C. support the author's opinion
D. arouse readers' interest

3. The following statements are true except           .
A. both stories happened in the USA
B. Mr. Chen achieved achievements in physics
C. the dress was a beautiful one
D. Mr. Chen worked in the USA for long

4. The passage mainly tells us           .
A. Americans like to praise people
B. Chinese people are very modest
C. culture varies in different countries
D. people should respect each other

      HERE are many different Londons, and they appeal to people with many different passions: museum
lovers, theatergoers, opera buffs (愛好者, 迷;熱心人), devotees of royalty, students of history, people who like to walk in the rain.But richest of all, perhaps, is the London for book lovers.
     Because the city is the star and the backdrop of so much great literature, it is possible to believe you
know it very well-how it looks, how it feels-without ever leaving your home country, or indeed your
home.But it is better to visit, if only for the joy of seeing the landscape of your imagination come to life.
How breathtaking to happen upon Pudding Lane, where a bakery accident led to the Great Fire of 1666, after reading Pepys' account in his diaries.Or to wander along Baker Street, where Sherlock Holmes
once fictionally solved the unsolvable.Walk across London Bridge and gaze down, toward Southwark
Bridge: this is the stretch of the Thames where Dickens's sinister characters dredged up corpses in "Our
Mutual Friend."
     The city is not so foggy as it was in 1952, when Margery Allingham published "The Tiger in the
Smoke, " or as socially stratified as it when Marianne Dashwood waited in "Sense and Sensibility" for a
suitor who never called;or as greedy as it was in the thrusting 1980s of Martin Amis' "Money." But it is
all of those Londons, an accrual of different descriptions and eras.It is a city made for description-reread
the first passages of "Bleak House, " also on the subject of fog, for a moody introduction-and one that so
respects its authors that it buried a number of the best ones in style, in Westminster Abbey.
     There are plenty of organized literarythemed tours around the city, easily found on the Internet.Or you
can wander characteristically on your own, which is more fun.If you take the Tube or the bus, make sure
to carry a book.

1.What can we infer from the first paragraph?
A.Most people of London like visiting museums.
B.No Londoners go to cinemas to see the films.
C.A majority of Londoners are book lovers.
D.All the Londoners like to walk in the rain.

2.What information can you get from Pepy's diaries?
A.Great Fire of 1666 caused by an accident in a bakery.
B.Sherlock Holmes once lived in Baker Street.
C.London Bridge is next to Baker Street.
D."Our Mutual Friend" is one of Dickens's works.

3.Who is Sherlock Holmes?
A.A book lover.
B.A character of Dickens's novel: "Our Mutual Friend".

A."The Tiger in the Smoke"    
B."Sense and Sensibility"
C."Money"                  
D."Our Mutual Friend"

5.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?

                                               The State of Marriage Today
    Is there something seriously wrong with marriage today? During the past 50 years, the rate of divorce
in the United States has exploded: almost 50%of marriages end in divorce now, and the evidence
suggests it is going to get worse, if this trend continues. It will lead to the breakup of the family, according
to a spokesperson for the National Family Association. Some futurists predict that in 100 years, the
average American will marry at least four times and extramarital affairs (婚外戀) will be even more
common than they are now.
    But what are the reasons for this, and is the picture really so depressing? The answer to the first
question is really quite simple: marriage is no longer the necessity it once was. The practice of marriage
has been based for years partly on economic need. Women used to be economically dependent on their
husbands as they usually didn't have jobs outside the home. But with the rising number of women in
well-paying jobs, this is no longer the case, so they don't feel that they need to stay in a failing marriage.
    In answer to the second question, the prospects may not be as pessimistic as they seem. While the
rate of divorce has risen, the rate of couples marrying has never actually fallen very much, so marriage is
still quite popular. In addition to this, many couples now cohabit(同居) and don't bother to marry. These
couples are effectively married, but they do not appear in either the marriage or divorce statistics. In fact, more than 50%of first marriages survive. The statistics are unreliable because there is a higher number of
divorces in second and third marriages than in first marriages.
So is marriage really an outdated practice? The fact that most people still get married indicates that it isn't. And it is also true that married couples have a healthier life than single people: they suffer less from stress
and its consequences, such as heart problems, and married men generally consider themselves more
satisfied than their single counterparts. Perhaps the key is to find out what makes a successful marriage
and apply it to all of our relationships!
1. What does "this is no longer the case" in paragraph two mean? 
A. It is not necessary to get married any more. 
B. Women do not need a husband any longer. 
C. Women are not economically dependent any more. 
D. Many wives do well-paying jobs outside home now.
2. Why may the prospects of marriage not be as depressing as it appears? 
A. Many people still like to get married. 
B. The rate of divorce has actually decreased. 
C. many couples would rather cohabit than marry 
D. The statistics of divorce is not quite true.
3. How do people usually feel in their marriage life?
A. They are much safer.      
B. They feel no longer single. 
C. They are more satisfied.    
D. They suffer a lot less.
4. Which of the following about marriage is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A. There will be more relationships outside marriage. 
B. Many people try to get married again after divorce. 
C. Marriage has long been partly an economic need. 
D. It is a fact that most people choose to get married.

     I love charity(慈善)  shops and so do lots of other people in Britain because you find quite a few of
them on every high street.The charity shop is a British institution, selling everything from
clothes to electric goods , all  at very good  prices. You  can  get things you won't find in the shops any
more. The thing I like best about them is that your money is going to a good cause and not into the
pockets of profit-driven companies, and you are not damaging the planet , but finding a new home for
unwanted goods.
     The first charity shop was opened in 1947 by Oxfam. The famous charity's appeal to aid postwar
Greece had been so successful it had been flooded with donations (捐贈物). They decided to set up
a shop to sell some of these donations to raise money for that appeal. Now there are over 7, 000 charity
shops in the UK. My favourite charity shop in my hometown is the Red Cross shop, where I always find
children's books, all 10 or 20 pence each.
      Most of the people working in the charity shops are volunteers , although there is often a manager
who gets paid. Over 90% of the goods in the charity shops are donated by the public. Every moming you
see bags of unwanted items outside the front of shops, although they don't encourage this, rather ask
people to bring things in when the shop is open.
      The shops have very low running costs :  all profits go to charity work .  Charity  shops  raise  more
than £110  million  a year ,funding (資助) medical research, overseas aid, supporting sick and poor
children , homeless and disabled people , and much more. What better
place to spend your money? You get something special for a very good price and a good moral sense.
You provide funds to a good cause and tread lightly on the environment.
1. The author loves the charity shop mainly because of__________ . 
A. its convenient location
B. its great variety of goods
C. its spirit of good will
D. its nice shopping environment
2. The first charity shop in the UK was set up to_________.
A. sell cheap products    
B. deal with unwanted things
C. raise money for patients
D. help a foreign country
3. Which of the following is TRUE about charity shops? _________
A. The operating costs are very low.
B. The staff are usually well paid.
C. 90%  of the donations are second-hand.
D. They are open twenty-four hours a day.
4. Which of the following may be the best title for the passage?
A. What to Buy a Charity Shops
