AMy dad left me a treasure when he died. It wasn't cash, gold or bank accounts. In the eyes of the world my Dad died a poor man. He was a simple mechanic who worked hard to support his family. My Dad's treasure rather was in a thousand wonderful memories that he gave me over the course of his life.One particular treasure stands out in my mind today. I was just a boy playing in the backyard of a friend's house while my Dad spent the whole afternoon under the hood(车盖) of his old car trying to get it running again. It seemed to take hours and I wasn't sure he could bring it back to life again this time. At long last, though, he closed the hood and turned the key. There was a sweet smile of satisfaction on his face as the engine started. There was a joy in his eye when he shook his head and refused to accept anything for his work. And there was quiet happiness in his voice as we drove back home that day. This memory made a home in my heart and became a priceless pearl for my soul to cherish.Time and time again my Dad showed me that a good life, a kind life, or a giving life was created one choice at a time. Not all of his choices were the right ones, but most of them were. He did the best he could. He lived the best he could. And he helped to bring out the best in me too. As I look back into the memories my Dad left me, I realize that each one of them inspired me to live and to love: one choice at a time.How do you build a better world? How do you live a loving life? One choice at a time.21. What treasure did the writer’s father leave him?A. Cash.B. Gold.C. Bank accounts.D. One memory.22. What made the writer’s father satisfied?A. He made his old car work again.B. He only spent several hours repairing his old car.C. He gave his son a wonderful treasure.D. He did better than his son had expected.23. From the passage, we can infer that the writer’s father is very ________.A. lovableB. hard-workingC. humorousD. strict24. In the writer’s opinion, his father ________ .A. never made mistakesB. made no right choiceC. did best in everythingD. tried his best to do anythingBThomas Jefferson, the third president of the United States, was a good and tireless writer, and he wrote The Declaration of Independence. There is much we can learn from him. Here are some of the things he said and wrote:Go and see. Jefferson believed that a free man obtains knowledge from many sources besides books, and personal investigation is important as well.Judge for yourself. Jefferson refused to accept other people’s opi nions without careful thought. “Neither believe nor reject anything，” he wrote to his nephew.Learn from everyone. Jefferson once visited the French nobleman, Lafayette, and said to him, “You must go into the people’s home as I have done ，look into their cooking pots and eat their bread. If you will only do this, you may find out why people are dissatisfied. ”Do what you believe is right. In a free country, there will always be conflicting ideas，and this is a source of strength. It is not unquestioning agreement but conflict that keeps freedom alive. Though Jefferson was for many years the object of strong criticism, he never answered his critics. He expressed his philosophy, “There are two sides to every question. If you take one side with decision and act on it with effect, those who take the other side will of course resent(憎恶)your actions. ”Trust the future and trust the young. Jefferson felt that the present should never be chained to customs which have lost their usefulness. “The earth belongs to the living generation. ” He didn’t fear new ideas, nor did he fear the future. “How much pain has been caused by evils which have never happened?” he remarked，“I expect the best, not the worst. ”25.The author mentioned Jefferson’s visit to Lafayette to show______.A．Jefferson was dissatisfied with LafayetteB．Jefferson had a close relationship with his peopleC．Jefferson was a great American presidentD．Jefferson valued the importance of learning from others26.Jefferson was determined never to answer his critics because______.A．he believed silence was a source of strengthB．he thought it useless to defend obviously correct ideasC．he believed in conflict rather than in unquestioning agreementD．he knew the more he said ,the more people would resent him27.What would be the best title of the passage?A．Jefferson’s Great Works B．Jefferson’s Philosophy C．Jefferson’s Teaching D．Jefferson's Life StoryCIn the near future, we may be using our eyes to operate our smart-phones and tablets, even when it comes to playing popular games like Fruit Ninja.The Gaze Group has been developing eye-controlled computer technology for nearly 20 years. But those devices have been firstly designed to help those with disabilities, and are very expensive.“After a while, we figured out that probably the best way is to go for a mass-market way,” says Gaze’s Sune Alstrup Johansen. “where everybody would have this available."Johansen and some of his colleagues have formed a new company, the Eye Tribe, which is hoping to develop the technology on a mass commercial level.The technology works with the help of the computing device toward the user’s face. After making sure of the user’s eye movements, the technology is then able to easi ly find where a person’s eyes are moving, and then allow the eyes to control a cursor(光标).“Our software can then determine the location of the eyes and know where you’re looking onthe screen to make sure what you’re looking at, ” reads an explanation on the Eye Tribe site.There has been a gradual change toward hands-free technology in recent years, particularly inthe gaming world. Recently Xbox released the Kinect device, which lets users control their Xboxand play certain games using only their hands, legs and voices. But still, most of these deviceshave been more of a gimmick than a practical way to use one’s hands to control a mobile device.Johansen said a replaceable filter(滤光器)would be a cheap, convenient way for most consumers.And even as companies like The Eye Tribe work to create such a product for the average user,making the eye-controlled technology more accessible and less expensive will have similarbenefits for physically disabled users.For more articles on modern science，please CLICK here．28.Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?A. An introduction of eye-controlling technologyB. An introduction of a new device.C. An introduction of smart-phonesD. An introduction of a new technology for the disabled.29.The underlin ed word “gimmick” probably means ___________.A. a wayB. a trickC. a lieD. a dream30.According to the passage, we can learn that ___________.A. the eye-controlling technology was first developed for the blindB. the present developing of the technology will bring no goodC. the eye-controlling technology is only intended for the disabled peopleD. there is no such a phone as we can use only with our eyes at present31.This passage is probably taken from ___________.A. an experiment reportB. a science fictionC. a science websiteD. a school textbookDWanted, Someone for a KissWe're looking for producers to join us on the sound of London Kiss 100 FM You'll work on the station's music programmes.

AHave you ever heard of an old saying? Intelligenee is a born ability while goodness is a choice. Gifts are eas-they ' re givafter all. Choice can be hard.I got the idea to start Amaz on 16 years ago. I came across the fact that the Internet usage was growing at 2300 percent per year. I'd never seen or heard of anything that grew that fast, and the idea of building an online bookstore with millions of titles was very exciting to me. I had just turned 30 years old, and I ' d be （married for a year. I told my wife MacKe nzie that I wan ted to quit my job and go to do this crazy thing that probably wouldn ' work since most start-ups don' and I wasn' sure what to expect. MacKenzie told me I should go for it. As a young boy, I ' d bee n a garage inven tor. I ' d always wan ted to be an inven tor, and she wan ted me to follow my passi on.I was working at a financial firm in New York City with a bunch of very smart people and I had a brillia nt boss that I much admired. I went to my boss and told him I wan ted to start a compa ny selli ng books on the Intern et. He took me on a long walk in Cen tral Park, liste ned carefully to me, and fin ally said, That sounds like a really good idea, but it would be an eve n better idea for some one who did n t already have a good job.” That logic made some sense to me, and he convinced me to think about it for 48 hours before making a final decision. Seen in that light, it really was a difficult choice, but fin ally, I decided I had to give it a shot. I did n 'tthi nk I d regret tryi ng and faili ng. And I suspected I would always be haunted by a decision to not try at all.After much consideration, I took the less safe path to follow my passion, andl m proud of that choice.

We can know from the passage that ______A. the boss thought the idea was suitable for the authorB. the author wanted someone else to try the ideaC. the author might not regret if he failed the ideaD. the author might go back to his boss if he failedBPublic bookshelves are appearing across Germany on street corners，city squares and in suburban supermarkets. In these free - for - all libraries，people can grab whatever they want to read ，and leave behind anything they want for others. There's no need to register，no due date，and you can take or give as many as you want.“This project is aimed at everyone who likes toread .It is open for everybod，y” Michael Aubermann，one of the organizers of the free book exchange said.The western city's latest public shelf was put up next to Bayenturm. It is the fourth free shelf that Aubermann 's group，the Cologne Citizen' s Foundation，has placed outside. “We set up our other outdoor shelves last year and i's bee n work ing really well，” said Aubermann. The public bookshelveswhich are usually financed by donations and cared for by local volunteer groups, haveappeared independently of each other in many cities, suburbs and villages. Each shelf holds around 200 books and it takes about six weeks for a complete turnover, with all the old titles replaced by new on es.Even commercial book stores and online book sellers seem to support the idea of free book exchanges. “We see this project rather as a sales promotion than as competition，” said Elmar Muether. “If books are present everywhere, it helps our business, too. ”So far, the Cologne book group has had few problems with damage or other problems. Aubermann said, “ Propaganda 宣传）is the only kind of literature we do not allow here. ”At another bookshelf in the Bayenthal neighborhood, the lower shelves are reserved for childrens literature only. “It is important that we make it easy for every one to participate in this‘ readi ng culture on the street' —from old readers to kids to immigrants, ” Aubermann said.While most of the shelves have so far been put up in upscale neighborhoods, Aubermann and the 20 volunteers who help look after the project are planning to put up future shelves in poor neighborhoods , where citizens often don ' t have as much access to literature.5. Which of the followi ng is TRUE about the public bookshelves?A. People can take the books and leave their books at will.B. People cant borrow books uni ess they don ate books.C. People can borrow whatever they like after registeri ng.D. People have to return the books according to the required time.6.

I continued working as a waitress at night instructed tennis camps several mornings a week and worked as a secretary for a few hours in the after noon s. I eve n decided to take a class at a com mun ity college. This class at the com mun ity college saved me $650.It was an extremely tiring summer and made me anxious to return to my relatively easy life at the uni versity.During my sec ond and third years of un dergraduate schooli ngl decided to work about five hours per week in the campus admissi ons office an sweri ng phon es. This provided a little spending money and kept me from drawing my savings out .The overall situatio n looked hopeful as I approached my senior year as long as I could make as much money as I had the previous summer. I wan ted to go to Israel to study for 3 weeks, but I hesitated in making this decision because it would cost me $1,600 more to get the credits in Israel. About two weeks later my mom called to tell me that I had $1,600 in the bank that I had forgotten about ! One of my concerns about this trip was not only the cost, but the loss of time to make money; however, I made as much that summer in the ten weeks when I was at home as I had made during the fourteen weeks when I was at home the summer before. The way everything worked together to make this trip possible was one of the most exciting things that have ever happened to me.This experience has shaped me in many important ways. The first thing that I learned was the importance of a strong work ethic. Working long hours did a lot to develop my character and helped me learn the value of a dollar. It also made me learn how to search for creative ways to settle difficult situations.12. Where did the writer probably work part- time before attending the university?A. In a restaurant.B.
