AComputer programmer David Jones earns ￡35,000 a year designing new computer games, yet he cannot find a bank ready to let him have a credit card (信用卡). Instead, he has been told to wait another two years, until he is 18. The 16-year-old works for a small firm in Liverpool, where the problem of most young people of his age is finding a job. Davids firm releases (推出) two new games for the fast throwing computer market each month.But Davids biggest headache is what to do with his money. Even though he earns a lot, he cannot drive a car, take out a mortgage (抵押贷款), or get credit cards. David got his job with the Liverpool-based company four months ago, a year after leaving school with six O-levels and working for a time in a computer shop. I got the job because the people who run thefirm knew I had already written some programs, he said. David spends some of his money on records and clothes, and gives his mother 50 pounds a week. But most of his spare time is spent working. Unfortunately, computing was not part of our studies at school, he said. But I had been studying it in books and magazines for four years in my spare time. I knew what I wanted to do and never considered staying on at school. Most people in this business are fairly young, anyway. David added:I would like to earn a million and I suppose early retirement is a possibility. You never know when the market might die away.1.

We asked a few old friends to dinner.Like most elderly people, I suppose, we spent most of the evening talking about old times. Thirty years ago, the village used to be a quiet place. Now it has changed. Every Sunday hundreds of cars pass through the village at what I think a dangerous speed. They make the village almost as noisy as the streets of a large town. As a boy I enjoyed riding on the backs of the farm horses. Things are different now. Today there are very few horses working on the farms. The farm workers today drive tractors, not horses. A man is not of much use on a farm unless he knows all about machines. Now almost every house in the village has a TV set . Is it a good thing for children to spend the evening sitting in front of a TV set? When I was young I did not waste my time indoors. I would spendthe long summer evenings outdoors. I would play with my friends, go fishing or walk by the river. When my grandchildren asked me the reason why I havent bought a TV set, I tell them there are many books I still want to read. I cant find time for both reading and watching TV.8. The old like to talk about _______.A. themselvesB. othersC. the pastD. nothing9.

The pigeons get bigger because their normal diet would consist of seeds and insects, not high-fat junk food they are eating in the city centre.The council want people to know that everyone who feeds the pigeons is responsible for the streets being so crowded with these birds. They hope to encourage the birds to move away from the city centre and into parks and open spaces.Ten robotic birds have been brought into the city centre to scare the pigeons away and visitors are asked not to give the pigeons any food. The mechanical birds - known as robops - will sit on the roofs of buildings. They can be moved around to different locations. They look like a peregrine falcon, which is a bird that kills pigeons. They even make noises and flap their wings to scare the pigeons. They hope that the pigeons will go away before the city becomes the European Capital of Culture in two years.12.Pigeons in Liverpool get fat because they eat ________ .A.birdsB.seedsC.insectsD.high-fat junk food13.What do Liverpool city council try to do?A.They want the pigeons to move out of the city centre.B.They want people to feed the pigeons with healthy food.C.They want people to keep the pigeons at home.D.They want to keep robotic birds instead of pigeons.14.The robotic birds are used to _________.A.make the city colorfulB.drive away the pigeonsC.help feed the pigeonsD.show people directions15.This passage is most probably a(n) __________.A.noticeB.news reportC.short storyD.advertisement[MVC:PAGE]第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

It is said a fish head is good for brain. If you eat one, you’ll become cleverer indeed. Pay only three pounds for one fish head.” The boy paid him three pounds and the fis herman cut off a fish head and handed it to him.A raw fish head is not good—not even for a hungry boy to eat but the boy ate it up in two gu lps.“Do you feel anything?” asked the fisherman.“Not in my head,” said the boy.The boy lay on the ground and thought. “One whole fish cos ts only two pounds. I had paid him three pounds for the fish h ead. Why couldn’t I have the whole fish for soup, a head for br ain and one pound left over?” He jumped up and shouted at t he fisherman. “You thief! You are fooling me!” The fisherman l aughed, saying, “The fish head works now, you see.”21.

The boy paid three pounds. He should have had ________ __.A. a whole fishB. a fish head and one pound backC. a whole fish and one pound backD. a whole fish, a fish head and one pound backBRecently a professor of philosophy in the United States has written a book called Money and the Meaning of Life. He has discovered that how we deal with money in our day-to-day life has more meaning than we usually think. One of the e xercises he asked his students to do is to keep a record of ev ery penny they spend for a week. From the way they spend th eir money, they can see what they really value in life.He says our relation with others often become clearly defined when money enters the picture. You might have wonderful friendship with somebody and you think that you arevery good friends. But you’ll know him only when you ask t o lend you some money. If he does, it brings something to the relationship that seems stranger than ever before. Or it can s uddenly weaken the relationship if he doesn’t. This person ma y say that he has a certain feeling, but if it is not carried out in the money world, there is something less real about it.Since money is important to us, we consider those who pos sess a lot of it to be very important. The author interviewed so me millionaires in researching his book.Question: What is the most surprising thing you have disco vered about being rich, because you are a self-made man?Answer: The most surprising thing is why people give me s o much respect. I’m nothing. I don’t know much. All I am is ric h.People just have an idea of making more and more money, but what is it for? How much do I need for anygiven purposes in my life? In this book, the professor unco vered an important need in modern society; to bring back the i dea that money is an instrument rather than the end. Money p lays an important role in the modern world, but expecting mon ey to give happiness may be missing the meaning of life.24. According to the first paragraph, people haven’t realized _ _________.A. how important money is in their day-to-day lifeB. how one spends money shows what is important to himC. that money is more important than their philosophy of lifeD. that their understanding of life is more important than mone y25. The author seems to believe that asking your friend to lend you some money __________.A. is a good way to test your friendB. will do harm to your friendC. will strengthen your friendshipD. is a good way to break off your friendship26. What can we learn about the millionaire from his answer i n the interview?A. He doesn’t feel that he is well educated.B. He doesn’t think he is a very important person.C. He doesn’t think being rich deserves so much attention.D. He doesn’t consider himself to be very successful.CBolivia has a population three and a half million .

They learn langua ges, history, geography, physics, chemistry and mathematics.Others go to school to learn a skill so that they can make a liv ing. School education is very important and useful. Yet no one can learn everything they want to know. The teacher’s job is t o show his students how to learn. He teaches them how to re ad and how to think. So, much more is to be learned outside s chool by the students themselves.It is always more important to know how to study by oneself th an to memorize some facts or a formula. It is usually quite eas y to learn a certain fact in history or a formula in mathematics. But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a maths problem. Great scientists, such as Einstein, Newton and Galil eo didn’t get anything from school. But they were all so succe ssful. They invented so many things for mankind.The reason for their success is that they knew how to study. T hey read books that were not taught at school. They worked h ard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. They would as k many questions as they readand they did thousands of experiments.Above all, they knew how to use their brains.31.

Most people like to have friends who like to do the same kind of things they do.The quickest way to make a friend is to smile. When you smile, people think you are friendly and easy to talk to. It may not be easy at first to smile, but remember most people will stay away from a scared or angry looking face.One easy way to start a conversation with someone is to say something nice about him. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to that person?Ask your new friends questions about themselves. Who’s their favorite singer, where do they live, what do they do after school are all good questions to start a conversation. Make sure you have something to add to the conversation, too. When someone asks you a question, do have an answer for them. There’s nothing that will stop a conversation quicker than a shrug (耸肩) for an answer. Kids who show an interest in other kids and who are kind and friendly make good friends. Remember, everyone wants to be around people who like to do similar things and people who are nice to them.1．This passage gives up some advice on____________.A.how to make friendsB.what kind of person you can make friends withC.how to start a conversationD.the importance of smile2．Most people like to make friends with those____________.A.who are sad every dayB.who share the same interestC.who are fond of talkingD.who say bad things to them3．According to the third paragraph, most people enjoy talking to one____________.A.who is always smilingB.who seems to be friendlyC.who praises themD.who points out their shortcoming4．The underlined(划线的)part in this passage means “___________”.A.being very proudB.making no answerC.knowing nothingD.not hoping to answer【答案】1．A2．B3．C4．B【解析】1．主旨大意题。
