Whether we choose to keep moving around, or we choose to stay in one place, we are on a journey. That journey is not an easy one because every day it makes us face new problems in new ways.When I was a little boy, I always looked forward to the next trip or the next holiday. Maybe it is because we lived in a small and boring town. When I finished school, I kept moving. In the first year out of school, I travelled with a friend and we visited over 17 countries in Europe, working in different jobs as we went. After this, I started studying. I studied at three different universities and lived in five different towns. That was my life. There was always someone else to get to know. All this carried on for many years until I got married and had my own family. When you stay in the same place, with the same persons, you start a whole new journey.Then you will stay in the same town, choosing one place to live and one job to remain in. There you are challenged to face life, doing things such as trying hard to get along well with your boss. You have to keep on at your job when you feel like giving it up and traveling again.So rather than move around on different trips, you are on a new journey. This journey of staying still is just as important as all the travels in the world.11.Why did the writer like moving around when he was a boy?A. Because he liked being with friends.B. Because he wanted to know about the world.C. Because he lived in a boring and small town.D. Because he didn’t love his family.12. Which one is TRUE according to the passage?A. The writer went to Europe alone when he left school.B. The writer kept moving during his whole life.C. After the writer got married, he tried different jobs.D. The writer thinks staying still is as important as traveling around.13.What is the best title?A. Go travelingB. Life is a long journeyC. Stay stillD. Travel makes you betterBNearly all our food comes from the soil(土壤). Some of us eat meat, of course; but animals live on plants. If there were no plants, we would have no animals and no meat. So the soil is very necessary for life. The top of the ground is usually covered with grass or other plants. There may be dead leaves and dead plants on the grass and the waste matter from animals also falls on it.All soil needs food. If we do not give it any, the plants will be weak. Animal’s wastes is the best food for the soil; but chemical fertilizers (化肥) are also very useful. The same crop(庄稼) ought not to be grown in the same place every year; it’s better to have a different crop. A change of crop and the use of a good fertilizer will keep the land in good condition.14. Since plants are very important for life, _____________.A. the chemical fertilizers are more importantB. the waste matter from animals is more importantC. the soil where the plants grow is more importantD. the animals are more important15. It’s better to _______________ in the same place every year.A. have a different cropB. use different fertilizersC. grow the same plantD. keep the same grass16. Which of the following is the best for soil?A. Chemical fertilizers.B. Animal’s wastes.C. Dead leaves and dead plants.D. All kinds of grass.17. How do we make good use of the soil?A. We can change the crops in the same place every year.B. We can use good fertilizers.C. We must keep the land waste.D. Both A and B.C“You have saved my horse,” Queen Olivia told the young boy standing before her. “Now you shall get a gift for what you did.” Peter nervously ran his fingers through his brown hair. That day when he was working in the field, the shocked horse ran past him. Without thinking, he rushed out and controlled it. He didn’t know it was the Queen’s horse and never expected to get a gift. But he still felt happy for getting one.Two of the queen’s men appeared. One carried a mirror. Red jewels(珠宝) shone on top of the mirror’s silver frame(框架). The other carried a wooden cage with a chicken inside it.“Only one gift can be yours,” the queen said. “Choose wisely.” “That’s easy,” Peter said. “I’ll take the chicken.” Some of the queen’s men laughed. It was clear that they thought he had made a foolish choice.“And why did you choose the chicken?” the queen asked. “Well, I don’t know much about jewels,” Peter answered. “But I do know about chickens. The chicken will provide eggs for my family for a long while.”Queen Olivia smiled. “Then you did make a wise choice,” she said. “That mirror may look beautiful. But the jewels you see are only colored glass, and the frame is painted silver. The chicken is much more valuable.” Peter took the chicken and bowed. “Thank you, your majesty.”“You are a smart child,” the queen added. “I could use a smart boy to help take care of my horses. Would you like to take the job?” Peter smiled. “Thank you very much!” he said excitedly. A job at the castle paid well. Now his family wouldn’t worry about their food any more--all because he was kind to help others and smart enough to make the right choice!18. The Queen gave Peter a gift because.A. he saved her horseB. he was smartC. she liked himD. he was poor19. Peter decided to choose the.A. jewelsB. mirrorC. chickenD. silver frame20. From Para.3-5, we can know that.A. it was difficult for Peter to make the choiceB. all the men thought Peter’s decision was rightC. Peter thought the chicken would be useful to his familyD. Peter knew the jewels weren’t real before he made the choice21. The right order of Peter’s story is.a. Peter got a well-paid job.b. Peter chose the gift wisely.c. Peter could get a gift for what he did.d. Peter would help his family have a better life.A. d c b aB. c b a dC. c b d aD. c a d b22. After reading the passage, we can infer(推断) that.A. Peter only thought of himselfB. Peter couldn’t take good care of the Queen’s horsesC. chickens became the popular gifts in their countryD. it was wise of Peter to choose something that he knew wellDThe Smith family moved to the United States in 1981. At that time, they decided to stop speaking Spanish at home and only communicate in English. This was because they were now living in an English-speaking country. Now the Smith children are adults, and they sometimes travel to Spain to visit their family and friends. But they cannot communicate with them. Unfortunately this is common. When people move to new countries, they often leave their own customs and mother language behind. This is a mistake because there are many advantages to knowing more than one language.If you can speak more than one language, you can communicate directly with more people around the world. You do not have to depend on others to talk for you, so you’re more independent. People who know only one language must use others to help them communicate.Furthermore, speaking a second language also allows people to experience other cultures and customs more effectively. Local expressions, vocabulary, and even jokes can have a powerful effect on a person’s understanding of another culture. So, knowing more than one language increases your knowledge of other cultures.Finally, having more multi-language speakers improves relationships between countries. If people from different countries can communicate well, the world can become closer. Countries will then have more respect for each other and better understand each other’s problems.It’s clear that knowing more than one language is really good. In fact, there are no disadvantages. It is very sad that many people don’t try to learn another language. It is even worse when people let themselves forget their mother language and become silenced.23. The passage begins with the experience of the Smith family in order to_______.A. discuss the need for teaching a new languageB. introduce the passage’s main characters to the readersC. describe the advantages of moving to another countryD. show the problems of speaking only one language24.

According to the last paragraph, which of the following is the worst?A. Not knowing another language.B. Forgetting one’s mother language.C. Refusing to learn another language.D. Failing to communicate with others.26. What is the passage mainly about?A. The advantages of learning other languages.B. The reasons why people come to America.C. The importance of learning EnglishD. How to learn another languageE阅读短文，根据要求完成下面各小题。
