They had planned either to live in a furnished apartment or to buy used furniture. But they soon learned about a new system that more and more people are using. The renting of home furnishings (bed, tables, dishes, and so on) has become one of America’s fastest growing businesses.What kinds of people rent their home furnishings instead of buying them? People who are international business or government officials, foreign students, airline workers, young married couples - people whose job or business may force them to move frequently from one city to another. They save a lot of trouble and the cost of moving their furniture each time. They simply rent new furniture when they reach their new homes. Young people with little money do not want to buy cheap furniture that they may soon dislike. They prefer to wait until they have enough money to buy furniture they really like. Meanwhile, they find they can rent better quality furniture than they could afford to buy.One family, who now have a large, beautiful home of their own, liked their rented furniture so much that they decided to keep renting it instead of buying new things.B ut usually people don’t like to tell others about it. The idea of renting home furnishings is still quite new, and they are not sure what their neighbors might think.1. Which of the following has become one of America’s fastest growing businesses? DA. Selling home furnishings.B. Renting furnished apartments.C. Selling used furniture.D.Renting home furnishings.2. Why do some people prefer to rent furniture? BA. Because the furniture they get in this way is new.B . Because it saves them a lot of money.C. Because it saves them much trouble and money.D. Because they can always get better quality furniture in this way.3. What can you infer from the passage? BA. The idea of renting furniture is not acceptable.B. Renting furniture is not popular in the couple’s home town.C. Only those who don’t have enough money to rent furniture.D. People usually grow to like the furniture they have rented.4. Young people liked renting home furniture because __B__A. they have less money.B. they don’t want to buy old furniture.C. the new furniture is of good quality.D. they don’t have much money and don’t want to buy the cheap furniture.5. Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?DA. Rent or Buy?B. A New Way of Getting Home Furnishings.C. Furnished Apartments.D. A New Idea.passage2Language learning is a highly cumulative process. It is important to keep up with and learn what is being presented to you about a language day by day. The following may aid you in your study of a foreign language.Proper pronunciation takes a great deal of practice. Improve your pronunciation by listening to the language and pronouncing the words yourself until they sound correct. Listen with the aim of accurately reproducing what you have heard. Focus on the meaning of what is being spoken as well as on pronunciation.Do not be concerned with speed, but with accuracy. Practice in speaking should be constant. When reading the language, read aloud if possible.When you read, do so with a focus on the total meaning of a sentence or passage and avoid looking up unknown words but, rather, attempt to determine their meanings based on the context of the sentence.Memorization is important and good knowledge of the rules of grammar in the language studied will aid in learning vocabulary. You may want to make flash cards for yourself to aid in this process. Try going over them at least once a day and keep the number of words you are working with small.Study all textbook material before you begin to write. While you are writing, pay attention to spelling, form, irregularities, and word order.1.

Whatever your budget is, the choice -from basic barn to small hotel, from tiny cottage to grand castle - is all part of fun.HostelsCheap, good-value hostels are aimed at all types of like-minded travelers. Britain's independent hostels and backpackers hostels also offer a great welcome. Facilities and prices vary, especially in rural areas,Youth HotelsFounded many years ago to "help all, especially young people of limited means, to a greater knowledge, love and care of the countryside", the Youth Hotels Association is still going strong in the 21st century. The network of 230 hotels is a perfect gateway for exploring Britain's towns and countryside.B&BsThe B&B (bed and breakfast) is a Great British institution.

Today, however, we needn’t worry about fee ling pain during the operation. The sick person falls into a kind of sleep, and when he awakes, the operation is finished. But these happy conditions are fairly new. It is not many years since a man who had to have operation felt all its pain.Long ago, operation had usually to be done while the sick man could feel everything. Soon after 1770, Josept Priestley discovered a gas which is now called 'laughing gas'. Laughing gas became known in America. Young men and women went to parties to try it. Most of them spent their time laughing, but one man at a party, Horace Wells, noticed that people didn’t seem to feel pain when they were using this gas. He decided to make an experiment on himself. He asked a friend to help him. Wells took some of the gas, and his f riend pulled out one of Well’s teeth. Wells felt no pain at all.As he didn’t know enough about laughing gas, he gave a man less gas than he should have. The man cried out with pain when his tooth was being pulled out.Wells tried again, but this time he gave too much of the gas, and the man died. Wells never forgot this terrible event.1. It is not long since a man felt all the pain while being operated. AA. TB. F2. Long ago, when the sick man was operated on, he could feel nothing.BA. TB. F3. Using the laughing gas, the people seemed to feel pain during the operation. BA. TB. F4. If a man took less laughing gas than he should have when an operation went on, he still felt pain.AA. TB. F5. One who took too much of the laughing gas would die. AA. TB. Fpassage5A poor young artist came to the gate of the subway station. He put his hat on the ground and took out a large piece of paper and laid it on the ground. Then he adjusted the violin and began playing.Before long, the young violinist was surrounded with people, who were all attracted by the words on that paper. It said, “Last night, a gentleman named George Sang put an important thing into my hat by mistake. Please come to claim it soon.”After about half an hour, a middle-aged man ran there in a hurry and rushed through the crowd to the violinist and grabbed his shoulders and said, “Yes, it’s you. You did come here. I knew that you’re an honest man and would certainly come here.”The story turned out to be this :George Sang bought a lottery ticket a few days ago. The awards opened yesterday and he won a prize of $500,000. So he felt very happy and he took out 50 dollars for the wonderful music played by the young man. However the lottery ticket was also thrown in.Later someone asked the violinist: “At that time you needed to pay the tuition fee and had to play the violin every day to make the money. Then why didn’t you take the lottery ticket for yourself?”The violinist said, “Although I don’t have much mone y, I live happily; but if I lose honesty I won’t be happy forever.”Through our lives, we can gain a lot and lose so much. But being honest should always be with us. If we bear ourselves in a deceptive and dishonest way, we may succeed temporarily. However, from the long-term view, we will be a loser. Such people are just like the water on the mountain. It stands high above the masses at the beginning, but gradually it comes down inch by inch and loses the chance of going up.1. Which of the following statements about George is wrong? DA. He threw the lottery in the violinist’s hat deliberately.B. He intended to give the violinist $50.C.

Why did the violinist return the lottery to George? CA. He was wealthy and did not need the money.B. He hoped to get some reward from George.C. He was honest and wanted to be happy.D. He was forced to give the money back to George by the police.4. W hat does the phrase “bear oneself” mean in paragraph 7? AA. enjoy oneselfB. behave oneselfC. cheat oneselfD. adjust oneself.5. What kind of people can be compared to the water on the mountain? AA. intelligent peopleB. cunning peopleC. political peopleD. dishonest peoplepassage6Most of us have suffered the pain of broken friendships. But the good news is that most friendships can be mended.Oxford professor Michael Argyle recently found that the key to happiness is having one close relationship and a network of friends. Maintaining long-lasting, healthy friendships is worth the effort!If there's a broken friendship you'd like to mend, try the following advice. Give your friend the benefit of the doubt.Matt, an American doctoral student, remembers two friendships broken by hurtful words. Both relationships were later healed. “It's probably true that if someone hurts you, they should have known better”, Matt says. “But the fact is we are all human and we mess things up. You need to give people the benefit of the doubt because you will need that, as well.”Take the initiative to communicate with your friend.If you've been hurt, your instinct is probably to pull away and protect yourself. But if you do this, the friendship will likely die.“You need to reach out,” says 20-year-old Jamie, “Friendships get broken when trust is lost. Both friends need to reach out and demonstrate they are trust worthy.”Walk through the conflict together.Start by trying to see things from your friend's point of view. Talk about the problems openly but kindly.At first, Jessica didn't understand why Joyce stopped talking to her. Then Joyce explained that Jessica's teasing bothered her. Jessica meant nothing by her teasing and thought it shouldn't bother Joyce. But when she accepted that it was embarrassing to Joyce, she stopped. Then their friendship could heal.It's normal for friendships to change. Problems come when one friend tries to hang on while the other friend lets go. If your friend isn't willing to work things out, accept it and move on.1. Happiness has nothing to do with one’s relationship with friends.BA. TB. F2. Trying to see things from your friend's point of view is conducive to healinga friendship.AA. TB. F3. Jessica’s friendship with Joyce could never be healed because of amisunderstanding.BA. TB. F4. When your instinct protect yourself if you are hurt, the friendship will likely die. BA. TB. F5. Few of us have suffered the pain of broken friendship.AA. AB. Fpassage7I believe honesty is one of the greatest gifts there is. It doesn't make any difference what they call it today. It's still what makes a man a good citizen. This is my code, and I try to live by.I've been in the taxicab business for thirty-five years, and I know there is a lot about it that is not so good. Taxicab drivers have to be rough and tumble fellows to be able to take it in New York. You've got to be tough to fight the New York traffic eight hours a day these days. Because taxi drivers are tough, people get the wrong impression that they are bad. Taxi drivers are just like other people. Most of them will shake down as honest fellows. You read in the papers almost every week where a taxi driver turns in money or jewels or bonds, stuff like that, people leave in their cabs. If they weren't honest, you wouldn't be reading those stories in the papers.I was born and raised in Ireland and lived there until I was nineteen years old.I came to this country in 1913 where I held several jobs to earn a few dollars before enlisting in World War I. After being discharged, I bought my own cab and have owned one ever since.In all my years of driving a taxicab, I have never had any trouble with the public, not even with drunks. Even if they get a little headstrong once in a while, I just agree with them and then they behave themselves.People ask me about tips. As far as I know, practically everyone will give you something. Most Americans are pretty generous. I always try to be nice to everyone, whether they tip or not. I have been trying this for a long time, and the longerI try, the easier it gets.1. I am a new taxicab driver in New York. AA. FB. T2. I did some jobs to make a living before I became a taxicab driver. BA. FB. T3. I am always being nice to everyone.AA. TB. F4. Honesty is the code that I live by.AA. FB. T5. People think most of the taxicab drivers are good.BA. TB. Fpassage8Do you have a hobby? Have you ever wondered what it would be like if you could spend more time on your hobby and less time at work? Perhaps you can do both at the same time.When choosing a career, one of the things you must consider is your interests. Why then do so many people not even think about their hobbies when a hobby is an interest? After all, no one ever said your hobby had to stay separate from your occupation.In addition people are usually very skilled at their hobbies. The combination of interest and skill are very compelling reasons to choose a particular career. "Who's going to hire someone who loves making beaded jewelry?" you may ask yourself. Good question. Don't wait for someone to hire you. Start your own business. That may be the best way to incorporate your hobby into your career.When you attempt to turn your hobby into a career, don't forget to do your homework. Even though you may have enjoyed training your parakeets to sing the National Anthem, that doesn't mean you're cut out to be an animal trainer. Be sure to research your career choice thoroughly. There may be aspects of it that just aren't for you. In that case, stick to your day job, as they say, and save your hobby for your free time.1. Based on the passage, it in impossible to do hobby and less time at work. BA.TB. F2. When choosing a career, one of the things you must take into consideration is your interests. AA. TB. F3. The underli ned word “compelling” in paragraph 2 means “ unnecessary”.BA. TB. F4. The best way to incorporate your hobby into your career is to run a business of your own. AA. TB. F5.
