He noticed some bright yellow pieces in the water and bent down to pick them up. This was the beginning of the Californian Gold Rush.Sutter realized the importance of the discovery. He sent a man to San Francisco to see the governor.The people of San Francisco did not believe him at first. But a reporter of a weekly newspaper there went to Sutter’s house to make a report. When he came back he ran through the streets of the town shouting, “Gold! Gold!”Within a month almost the entire population had gone to look for the precious（贵重的）metal. Soldiers deserted the army, sailors left their ships and men gave up their jobs so as not to miss the chance of becoming rich.The news spread across America to Europe and thousands of people joined in the search. Some sailed round Cape Horn to reach California. Some chose the overland route across America and trains were formed for travelers to make the journey. Even then there were some who were prepared to cross the terrible desert of Death Valley in order to reach the gold a few days before the others.The Gold Rush proved a disaster for Sutter himself. For years he tried to stop the people from digging his land. They did a great deal of damage （损害）and killed one of his sons, and at the end of his life he was a poor man who continually stopped people in the street to tell them that gold is the devil（恶魔）.1.Which of the following isn’t true?A.The Gold Rush began in the 1940s.B.The Gold Rush was started by Mr. Sutter.C.Mr. Sutter discovered gold in California.D.Mr. Sutter first found gold in a river.2.When Mr. Sutter sent a man to San Francisco, _______.A.the governor didn’t believe himB.nobody believed his storyC. a reporter believed him at onceD. a reporter shouted to people, “Gold!

He wrote to his brother at home, “Send me $500 by telegram to the Fisher Bank.”After a week he began visiting the bank. He showed his passport. “Nothing has come for you”, he was told. This went on for two weeks and Mr. Frank got very worried.In the fourth week Mr. Frank was sent to prison for failing to pay his hotel bill. He had tostay there for six weeks.When he came out, he went immediately to the Fisher Bank. There was a new clerk there. “Have you received $500 for me? My name is Jackson Frank.” he asked.The clerk checked his books. “Oh, yes. It came two months ago.” He said and showed Mr. Frank the order.“But my name is Jackson Frank, not Frank Jackson.”“That’s all right. It was in our books under the letter J.” The clerk laughed.“A human mistake. We’re all human beings. And so we all make mistakes.”Mr. Frank was silent. Then he said, “A human mistake is what you call it? I think some humans need kicking.”1. From the beginning of the story we learn that Mr. Frank ________.A.loved to travelB.had a rich brotherC.did not have enough money with himD.had not been to that place before2.

At the end of the story Mr. Frank ______.A. was surprisedB. beat the bank clerkC. was angryD. joked about the mistake（三）We want our kids (小孩) to use the Internet, and yet we worry. But we can find ways to direct our children away from what’s wrong, towards what’s best.The most effective (有效地) way to monitor (监控) a kids’ online activity is to monitor it. That is, to stand beside the computer from time to time when your child is at it.Carleton Kendrick suggests that accompanying (陪伴) your child to a website (网站) he often visits is no different from “checking out a playground where your kids go, to see that it’s safe.In any e-mail program, a look at the senders’ addresses can give you a good idea of your kids’ correspondents (通信者).America Online allows parents to limit incoming e-mails to a finite (限定的) list ofcorre spondents. Some parents also type their kids’ names into a search engine to discover what they’re saying on websites or message boards.Understand that as kids get older and demand more privacy (私密), some basic know-how comes into play. America Online has been particularly effective in helping parents give their children an online experience, a “kids-only’ AOL account (帐户) prevents young users from all but full time-monitored chat (聊天) rooms. Katherine Borsecnik, president at AOL, notes, however, that “if I have a child who’s doing a report on breast (乳房) cancer (癌), I might want to turn off the filters (过滤器)”since kids-only access (路径) would block websites with even straight medical information about breast.Many parents don’t know that a simple click (点击) on the “history”tab (键) will produce a list of links to every website the computer has visited recently. Bonnie Fell opens all the files that have been downloaded (下载) by her two sons at least once a month—”whether the boys are there or not. Although they know it.” As Jim Lynch, who manages message boards for the Boston-based FamilyEducation. com, says, “Parents are the ultimate (最后的) filter.”1. To stand beside the computer from time to time when your child is at it is .A. the most effective way to monitor a kid’s online activityB. the useful way to direct it away f rom what’s wrong and towards what’s bestC. the good way to protect it on the netD. checking out a playground where your kids go, to see that it’s safe.2. To protect their children on the net, parents can .a. accompany their children to the website they often visitb. look at the senders’ addressesc. limit incoming e-mails to a finite list of correspondentsd. type their kids’ names into a search engine to discover somethingA. abB. acC. abdD. abcd3. America Online .A. prevents young users from all but full time-monitored chat roomsB. blocks websites with even straight medical informationC. produces a list of links to every website the computer has visited recentlyD. turn off the filters4. Which of the following is right?A. Katherine Borsecnik says parents are the ultimate filter.B. Carleton Kendrick says accompanying a child to a website is the same as checking out aplaygroundC. Jim Lynch says she might want to turn off the filtersD. Bonnie Fell says she opens all the files of her two sons whether they are there or not（八）A young woman rode with her new husband in a wagon (四轮马车). They came to a log cabin (小棚屋). The man shouted and a little boy came running out of the cabin. Sarah, the young woman, got down from the wagon, opened wide her arms and held the boy close.“Hello, Abe Lincoln,” she said. “I think we’ll be good friends.”The new mother with the smiling face went to work at once. She washed Abe and his sisterand tidied (整理) their hair. And that night she threw away the boy’s mattress (床垫) of leaves and gave him a soft mattress and enough blankets to keep him warm at night.Sarah wove cloth and made new shirts for Abe. She made him new deerskin trousers and even deerskin shoes.Maybe, if she had n’t come to the cabin, he wouldn’t have lived to be a man. When Abe’s father told him not to go to school any more and help on the farm, Sarah took Abe’s part against his father. Abe would rather read than eat, and when his father told him to stop, Sarah s aid, “Let the boy read.”In 1830 the day came when Abe would leave home to work in New Salem. For the last time she had taken Abe’s part against his father. For the last time she had kept the cabin quiet so that Abe could read.More than twenty years later, when Abe, who had then become famous, was going to make a speech in a nearby town, Sarah went there just to watch him. In the crowd she tried to make herself small, but he saw her and, in front of everybody, got out of his carriage and went over and put his arms around her and kissed her. Yes, that was her Abe.“He loved me truly,” she said later.1. Which of the following is not true?A. The young woman in the wagon was Abe’s new mother.B. The man in the wagon was Abe’s new father.C. The little boy was the young woman’s new son.D. The little boy running out of the cabin was Abe.2. What did Sarah do as soon as she got to the new home?A.
