Katherine walked into a newspaper office, and demanded

to see the editor. Fortunately, the editor was passing the

inquiry office when she asked for him. Seeing she was a

girl of school age, he thought it might offer him an

amusing five minutes between interviews.

Katherine was very rude to him when he told her they

didn’t aept schoolgirls. She said she was surprised that

the editor of a great London newspaper did not know how to

behave like a gentleman. The editor sat back in his chair

and laughed heartily. He had never been spoken to like that

in his life. He rather liked it for its novelty. After some

further conversation, in which Katherine attempted to

persuade him that she could do anything he wanted, from

writing a leading article to a serial story, she said: "I

am not going to leave this room until you put me on the

staff!“

Then the editor had to speak to her rather seriously,

and told her what a great London newspaper meant to a girl

and how utterly ignorant she was of everything that would

make her useful as a journalist. Upon this Katherine burst

into tears, and the editor, who had dismissed many men in the course of his career, walked up and down the room

wondering what he could do for this extraordinary young

girl whose tearful eyes were so full of disappointment.

"Look here," he said, "if you e to me in two years’

time, with a knowledge of shorthand, and if you promise not

to shed tears on my blotting paper, I will give you

something to do."

"Really? If you don’t mind, I’ll have it in black and

white," said the girl.

The editor was startled. He began to think that this

young girl was not so young as she looked. He drafted out

an agreement for her on the lines laid down with a great

deal of solemnity(严肃)which he found quite amusing, for he

was confident that the young girl might quite as well

change her mind or would be engaged to a nice boy long

before the agreement took effect.

5. When the editor drafted out the agreement for the

girl, he .

A. hoped that this would please the girl

B. wished that it would take effect soon

C. adopted a rather serious attitude

D. didn‘t mean what he wrote

Passage 1

Since its founding in 1948, McDonald's has grown from a family burger (汉堡包) stand to a global fast-food chain, with morethan 30,000 locations in 118 countries. With 58 million daily customers worldwide, McDonald’s is now so ubiquitous aroundthe globe that The Economist publishes a global ranking of currencies' purchasing power based on the prices charged at thelocal McDonald’s, called the Big Mac Index (巨⽆霸指数).That’s not to say that every nation carries the same menu items:choices vary widely depending on location. Some Asian locations serve fried shrimp in a Big Mac roll, while McDonald’s inIndia doesn’t serve beef at all, relying instead on burgers made from vegetables, rice and beans.

Not everyone in the world has been happy to greet Ronald McDonald when he moves to town. Many see McDonald's as asymbol of American economic and cultural chauvinism (沙⽂主义), and European nations in particular have viewedAmerican-style fast food as an insult to their national food. A French farmer, Jose Bove, became something of a national heroin 1999 after he and a group of people destroyed a McDonald's under construction to protest globalization and "bad food."The next year, a bomb exploded in a French McDonald’s, killing a 27-year-old employee.

Passage 1

The first year of school in America, known as kindergarten, usually begins between the ages

of five and six. Among rich countries such a late start is very strange. President Obama believes it

is an economic and social problem; his education secretary goes as far as to say that it is "morally

wrong". This statement has some support, as it is clear from research into vocabulary that

youngsters from poor families enter kindergarten well behind those from rich families—a

disadvantage that usually lasts a lifetime. Children from households on welfare knew 525words by

the age of three, while the children of professionals had mastered1,116.

(76) Pre-school can help close this gap. So in a speech last month, Mr. Obama called for a

partnership between the federal government and the states to expand it to every American child. It
