The Best Holiday
I was unbelievably proud of my nine-year-old daughter, Emily.  36  to buy a mountain bike, she’d been saving her pocket money all year, as well as doing small jobs to earn extra money.
By Thanksgiving , she had collected only $49. I said, “ You  37 have your pick from my bicycle  38  ”. “Thanks, Daddy. But your bikes are so old. ” She was right. All my girls’ bikes were 1950s models, not the kind a kid today would   39 choose.
As Christmas  40 near, Emily and I went bike shopping . As we left one store, she  41 a Salvation Army volunteer standing next to a big pot. “Can we give something, Daddy?” She asked. “Sorry, Em, I’m out of   42    . ”
Throughout December, Emily continued to work hard. Then one day, she made a  43 announcement. “You know all the money I’ve been saving?” she said hesitantly. “I’m going to give it to the poor people.” So one cold morning before Christmas, Emily handed her total savings of $58 to a volunteer who was really very  44   .
45  by Emily’s selflessness, I decided to contribute  46 of my old bicycles to a car dealer who was collecting used bikes for poor children.  47 I selected a shiny model from my collection, however, it seemed as if a second bike took on a glow. Should I contribute two? No, one would be enough. But I couldn’t  48  the feeling that I should give a second bike. When I later  49 the bikes, the car dealer said, “You’re making two kids very  50  , sir . Here are your tickets. For each bicycle contributed, we’re   51  away one chance to win a girl’s mountain bike. ”
Why wasn’t I surprised when that second ticket proved to be the 52   ? I like to think it was God’s way of  53  a little girl for a sacrifice  54  her year--while giving her dad a lesson in the  55  .

Faced with a tough job market, fresh graduates are dreaming of running their own businesses instead. But a recent survey has showed that such ambitions lack the required support and remain just that — dreams.
The Shanghai Municipal Employment Promotion Center poll of 1,276 graduates in several universities and colleges in the city, released last Friday, showed 59.78 percent of respondents considered the possibility of setting up a company or at least a small store. "But they just stop at the 'thinking' stage," it stated.
Respondents put the top reasons for not going it alone down to a shortage of investment and a lack of business opportunity. They also listed lack of business experience and social networks, the need for advanced study and objections from family members as factors that stood in their way.
More than 90 percent of the interviewees said they would rather take up a job after graduating and then consider starting their own business two or three years down the road.
Guo Bing, a senior student in Shanghai International Studies University majoring in English, decided he wanted to be his own boss last year. But he is looking for a job first. "If I fail to find a satisfying job, I would like to establish a company in exhibition services," Guo said.
The Shanghai native has some relatives working in a local printing plant. With their help, Guo hopes to produce exhibition brochures at a relatively low price. He is also confident that his English language skills can help him do well in the industry.
"Social networking is an important factor leading to business success," Guo said.
Guo said that the shortage of graduate jobs is the main reason driving more university students to set up a business right after their graduation.
Jiang said the university sets up a business guide team made of government officials and professionals. They regularly give training courses to students who show an interest in having their own business. The parents of university graduates are more willing to help their children start up alone, the survey showed" Once you win the support of your family, you have won half the battle," Guo added.

“In only six days I lost seven pounds of weight.”
“Two full inches in the first three days!”
These are the kinds of statements used in magazine,newspaper, radio and television ads, promising new shapes and new looks to those who buy the medicine or the device. The promoters of products say they can shape the legs, slim the face, smooth wrinkles, or in some other way to add to beauty or desirability.
Often such products are nothing more than money-making things for their promoters. The results they produce are questionable, and some are dangerous to health.
To understand how these products can be legally promoted to the public, it is necessary to understand something of the laws covering their regulation. If the product is a drug, FDA(Food and Drug Administration)can require proof under the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act that is safe and effective before it is put on the market. But if the product is a device, FDA has no authority to require premarketing proof of safety or effectiveness. If a product already on the market is a danger to health, FDA can request the producer or distributor to remove it from the market voluntarily, or it can take legal action, including seizure(查封)of the product.
One notable case a few years ago involved an electrical device called the Relaxacisor, which had been sold for reducing the waistline. The Relaxacisor produced electrical shocks to the body through contact pads. FDA took legal action against the distributor to stop the sale of the device on the grounds that it was dangerous to health and life.
Obviously, most of the devices on the market have never been the subject of court proceedings(法律訴訟),and new devices appear continually. Before buying, it is up to the consumer to judge the safety or effectiveness of such items.
小題1:It can be inferred that the ads mentioned in the text are            .        .
A.objectiveB.costlyC.unreliableD.illegal
小題2:Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?
A. The court is in charge of removing dangerous products.
B. New products are more likely to be questionable.
C. The production of a device must be approved by FDA.
D. The promoters usually just care about profits.
小題3:FDA can ask for the proof of safety and effectiveness of a product             
A.if it is a drug
B.if it is a device
C.if its consumers make complaints
D.if its distributors challenge FDA’s authority
小題4:The Relaxacisor is mentioned as                   .
A.a(chǎn) product which was designed to produce electricity
B.a(chǎn) product whose distributor was involved in a legal case
C.a(chǎn) successful advertisement of a beauty product
D.a(chǎn)n example of a quality beauty product
小題5:The author intends to            
A.make consumers aware of the promoters’ false promises
B.show the weakness of the law on product safety
C.give advice on how to keep young and beautiful
D.introduce the organization of FDA

It’s a nightmare for Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST): within a week,two students committed suicide by jumping off dorm buildings.對于整個(gè)華中科技大學(xué)來說,這簡直就是場噩夢:一周之內(nèi),兩名學(xué)生在宿舍跳樓自殺。
Officials from the university are reluctant to give interviews.校方官員們不愿接受采訪。
“We had a hard time calming down students who were shocked at the suicides,” said Zhang Jingyuan,one official of HUST.
“Media coverage may arouse some students’ negative emotions again.Suicide can be contagious,” Zhang said.他說,“媒體的報(bào)道將會(huì)再次引發(fā)學(xué)生的消極情緒,自殺是會(huì)傳染的!
The university reacted promptly to the first suicide on October 23.對于今年10月23號發(fā)生的第一起自殺事件,華中科技大學(xué)迅速做出應(yīng)急措施。
Advisors and class leaders conducted dorm-to-dorm checks to find students suffering depression.Then psychologists offered one-on-one counseling to them.輔導(dǎo)員和班長們走訪了每個(gè)宿舍,找出遭遇抑郁的學(xué)生。然后,心理咨詢師會(huì)為這些學(xué)生提供一對一的心理咨詢。
Notice boards publicizing tips for identifying peers’ mental problems and offering help were set up in front of dorm buildings.Leaflets carrying similar information were handed out to each dorm.宿舍樓前豎起一些布告欄,為同學(xué)們普及關(guān)于如何發(fā)現(xiàn)身邊人遭遇心理問題并提供幫助的小貼士。印有類似內(nèi)容的小冊子也被分發(fā)給每個(gè)寢室。
However,the second suicide came seven days later.然而,七天后,第二起自殺事件發(fā)生了。
Both students were described as men of few words.Their schoolmates didn’t see anything to indicate suicide.據(jù)周圍人描述,這兩名學(xué)生都很少言寡語。他們的同學(xué)都沒有覺察到任何自殺前的征兆。
Zhang revealed that the two students had been bothered by mental disorders.But the school didn’t know this until the students’ close friends outside school and their parents unveiled the truth after the suicides.章勁元透露,這兩名學(xué)生曾經(jīng)飽受心理疾病的困擾。但是學(xué)校對此并不知情,他們校外的好友和家長也是在自殺事件發(fā)生后才說出實(shí)情。
According to Zhang,there are only three full-time counselors working in the university’s counseling center for its 60,000 students.He complained: “It’s unrealistic to rely only on counselors to detect students’ mental problems.”據(jù)章勁元說,全校共有六萬名學(xué)生,但學(xué)校的心理咨詢中心只有三位全職心理咨詢師。他抱怨說:“僅僅依靠心理咨詢師來察覺學(xué)生的心理問題,這是不現(xiàn)實(shí)的!
Effective prevention comes from long-term education for life instead of temporary intervention to meet an emergency,said Hu Yi’an.Hu delivers a course of lectures on life and death at Guangzhou University.He worries that universities have paid little attention to education for life.有效的預(yù)防來自于長期的生命教育,而并非遭遇緊急狀況時(shí)的臨時(shí)干預(yù),胡毅安(音譯)說。他在廣州大學(xué)教授以生命和死亡為主題的課程。他為各大高校給予生命教育的關(guān)注少之又少而擔(dān)憂。
“Education for life helps students respect and love life so they won’t resort to ending their lives when they have difficulties,” said Hu.“生命教育可以幫助學(xué)生尊重、熱愛生命,這樣一來,當(dāng)他們遇到困難的時(shí)候就不會(huì)選擇結(jié)束生命了,” 胡毅安說。
According to Hu,the principles can be incorporated into everyday teaching.胡毅安還表示,這些觀念可以融入到日常教學(xué)中去。
Hu is also concerned that some universities are conveying discriminatory message that will hold back students from seeking help.胡老師也很擔(dān)心一些大學(xué)傳遞出帶有歧視性的信息會(huì)使得學(xué)生們不愿去尋求幫助。
When HUST conducted the dorm-to-dorm examination,students with poor academic performance were paid special attention.In March,Peking University also released a controversial policy,which required teachers to have a chat with students “with biased thinking”.當(dāng)華中科技大學(xué)校方挨個(gè)宿舍進(jìn)行走訪時(shí),學(xué)習(xí)成績較差的學(xué)生也被給予了特別關(guān)照。三月份,北京大學(xué)也推行了一項(xiàng)備受爭議的政策,該新規(guī)要求教師們要找那些學(xué)生中的“激進(jìn)分子”談話。
However,Hu suggested that students step out of their comfort zone to seek real-life communication.
小題1:The underlined word “reluctant” in paragraph 2 probably means “       ”.
A.willingB.unhappyC.refusedD.decided
小題2:Which measure the university took to the first suicide is incorrect?
A.Conducting checks to find out the students’ depression.

In the US, people prefer waiting for a table to sitting with people they don’t know. This means a hostess may not seat a small group until a small table is available, even if a large one is. If you are sitting at a table with people you don’t know, it is impolite to light up a cigarette without asking if it will disturb them.
At American restaurants and coffee shops you are usually served tap water before you order. You may find the bread and butter is free, and if you order coffee, you may get a free refill.
Most cities and towns have no rules about opening and closing time for stores or restaurants, though they usually do make rules for bars. Especially in large cities, stores may be open 24 hours a day.
Serving in restaurants is often large; too large for many people. If you can’t finish your meal but would like to enjoy the food later, ask your waitress or waiter for a “doggie bag”. It may have a picture of a dog on it, but everybody knows you’re taking the food for yourself.
Supper and dinner are both words for the evening meal. Some people have “Sunday dinner”. This is an especially big noon meal.
Tips are not usually added to the check. They are not included in the price of the meal, either. A tip of about 15% is expected and you should leave it on the table when you leave. In some restaurants, a check is brought on a plate and you put your money there. Then the waiter or waitress brings you your change.
小題1:Which statement is true?
A.American people like sitting with people they don’t know.
B.A hostess always seats a small group at a large table.
C.American people never sit with people they don’t know.
D.American people will not light a cigarette if the people who sit at the same table mind their smoking.
小題2:What is served before you order?
A.breadB.butterC.coffeeD.cold water
小題3:What do American people always do when servings are too large for them?
A.They take the food home with a doggie bag for their dogs.
B.They leave the food on the table and go away.
C.They take the food home with a doggie bag and enjoy the food later.
D.They ask the waitress or waiter to keep the food for them.
小題4:Sunday dinner is_______.
A.a(chǎn) dinner in the eveningB.A big noon meal
C.a(chǎn) big lunch on SundayD.A supper on Sunday

In cities with rent control, the city government sets the maximum rent that a landlord (房東) can charge for an apartment. Supporters of rent control argue that it protects people who are living in apartment. Their rent cannot increase; therefore, they are not in danger of losing their homes. However, the critics say that after a long time, rent control may have negative effects. Landlords know that they cannot increase their profits. Therefore, they invest in other businesses where they can increase their profits. They do not invest in new buildings which would also be rent-controlled. As a result, new apartments are not built. Many people who need apartments cannot find any. According to the critics, the end result of rent control is a shortage of apartments in the city.
Some experts argue that the minimum wage law can cause problems in the same way. The federal government sets the minimum that an employer must pay workers. The minimum helps people who generally look for unskilled, low-paying jobs. However, if the minimum is high, employers may hire fewer workers. They will replace workers with machinery. Therefore, other things being equal, the number of workers that employers want decreases. Thus, critics hold the opinion that an increase in the minimum wage may cause unemployment. Some poor people may find themselves without jobs instead of with jobs at the minimum wage.
Supporters of the minimum wage say that it helps people keep their dignity. Because of the law, workers cannot sell their services for less than the minimum. Furthermore, employers cannot force workers to accept jobs at unfair wages.
Economic theory predicts the results of economic decision, such as decisions about farm production, rent control, and the minimum wage. The predictions may be corrected only if “other things are equal”. Economists do not agree on some of the predictions. They also do not agree on the value of different decisions. Some economists support a particular decision while others criticize it. Economists do agree, however, that there are no simple answers to economic questions.
小題1:There is the possibility that setting maximum rent may________.
A.cause a shortage of apartments
B.worry those who rent apartments as homes.
C.increase the profits of landlords.
D.encourage landlords to invest in building apartments.
小題2:We can safely say that rent control_________.
A.will always benefit those who rent apartments.
B.is unnecessary.
C.will probably bring inactive effects in the long run.
D.is necessary under all conditions
小題3:There will be the problem of unemployment if ________________.
A.the minimum wage is set too high..
B.the minimum wage is set too early.
C.the workers are unskilled.
D.the maximum wage is set for poor workers.
小題4:The passage tells us about _______________.
A.the relationship between supply and demand.
B.the possible results of government controls.
C.the necessity of government control.
D.the urgency of getting rid of government control.
小題5:Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A.The results of economic decisions cannot always be predicted.
B.Minimum wage cannot always protect employees.
C.Economic theory can help predict the results of economic decision if other factors are not changing.
D.Economists usually have the same prediction about an economic decision.
