If both parents are working, they usually have two cars. When the family is large, one of the cars is sold and they will buy a van（住房汽车）.A small car can hold（容纳）four persons and a large car can hold six persons but it is very crowded. A van holds seven persons easily, so a family with three children can ask their grandparents to travel together.Mr. King and his wife had a third child last year. This made them sell a second car and buy a van. There are seven seats in the van, and two of them are used to put things on, for a family of five must carry many suitcases （手提箱）when they travel. When they arrive at their grandparen ts’ home, the suitcases are put into the two seats. And then they can carry their grandparents.Americans call vans motor homes. A motor homes is always used for holidays. When a family are travelling to the mountains or to the seaside, they can live in their motor home for a few days or weeks. All the members of a big family can enjoy a happier life when they are travelling together. That is why motor homes have become very popular. In America there are many parks for motor homes.( )1.

After Mr. King and his wife had a third child, first they ______.A. bought a vanB. sold one of their old carsC. moved to their grandparents houseD. got many suitcases( )3.

Americans usually drive motor homes to ________.A. visit their grandparents at weekendsB. take their children to school every dayC. travel with their family members for a holidayD. do some shopping with their family membersBLike many people, I have no clear idea about heroes. At some point, we all wonder if we need a hero and what a hero really is.Although there are a lot of differences in cultures, heroes around the world generally share a number of characteristics (特点) which give us courage and make us want to learn from them.A hero does something worth(值得) talking about. A hero has a special story to tell and people think highly of it. But a hero is not just the person with great fame (声誉) .A hero has powers (力量) larger than himself. Some people want to live like a hero, and they have to experience life with new and further meaning. A sure test for would-be heroes is what or whom they serve. What do they want to live and die for? If the answer suggests they serve only their own fame, they may be famous persons but not heroesA hero has a vision from the mountain top. He has the power to move people. He creates new possibilities. Without Gandhi, India might still be part of Britain. Without Martin Luther King, Jr., Americans might take different buses, eat in different restaurants, go for walks in different parks, and shop in different stores because of the different colours of their skin.There might be changes in society without a hero, but the speed of change would be rather slow. Thanks to heroes in history, they make the society develop so rapidly.( )6. According to this passage, a hero is a person who always___________.A. gives us courageB. thinks highly of othersC. shares great fameD. stands on the mountaintop( )7.
