I have a friend named Monty Roberts who owns a horse ranch (牧场). He has let me use his house to put on fund-raising events to raise money for the youth. The last time I was there he introduced me by saying, “I want to tell you why I let Jack use my house. It all goes back to a story about a young man, the son of a horse trainer who would go from ranch to ranch, training horses. As a result, the boy’s high school career was continually interrupted. When he was a senior, he was asked to write a paper about what he wanted to be and do when he grew up.”

“That night he wrote a paper describing his goal of owning a horse ranch. He wrote about his dream in great detail and even drew a diagram of a 200-acre ranch. He put his heart into the project and the next day he handed it in to his teacher. Two days later he received his paper back. On the front page was a large red F with a note reading, ‘See me after class.’ The boy went to see the teacher after class and asked, ‘Why did I receive an F?’ The teacher said, ‘This is an unrealistic dream for a young boy. Owning a horse ranch requires a lot of money. There’s no way you could ever do it.’ Then the teacher added, ‘If you will rewrite this paper with a more realistic goal, I will reconsider your grade.’”

“The boy went home and thought about it long and hard. He asked his father what he should do. His father said, ‘Look, son, you have to make up your own mind on this. However, I think it is a very important decision for you.’ Finally, after sitting with it for a week, the boy turned in the same paper, making no changes at all. He stated, ‘You can keep the F and I'll keep my dream.’”

Monty then turned to the group and said, “I tell you this story because you are sitting in my 4,000-square-foot house in the middle of my 200-acre horse ranch. I still have that school paper framed over the fireplace.” He added, “The best part of the story is that two summers ago that same schoolteacher brought 30 kids to camp out on my ranch for a week.” When the teacher was leaving, he said, ‘Look, Monty, I can tell you this now. When I was your teacher, I was something of a dream stealer. During those years I stole a lot of kids’ dreams. Fortunately you had enough gumption not to give up on yours.’”

1.Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. Monty’s high school life was interrupted because his father asked him to help him train horses.

B. Monty received an F because his teacher thought it was impossible for him to realize his dream.

C. Monty decided not to rewrite his paper because his father supported him.

D. Monty’s teacher was serious, responsible, strict and warm-hearted.

2.The underlined word “gumption” in the last paragraph means ______.

A. hope           B. idea             C. determination         D. belief

3.What can you learn from the passage?

A. Trying and getting real experience is a way of feeling better about yourself and gaining more       confidence in your abilities.

B. The easiest way for you to grow as a person is to surround yourself with people smarter than you.

C. Don’t be afraid of those who might have a better idea or who might even be smarter than you.

D. Don't let anyone steal your dreams. Follow your heart, no matter what.

Scratchy throats, stuffy noses and body aches all spell misery, but being able to tell if the cause is a cold or flu may make a difference in how long the misery lasts. The American Lung Association (ALA) has issued new guidelines on fighting colds and the flu, and one of the keys is being able to quickly tell the two apart. That’s because the prescription (处方) drugs available for the flu need to be taken soon after the illness sets in. As for colds, the sooner a person starts taking over-the-counter medicine, the sooner relief will come.

　The common cold and the flu are both caused by viruses. More than 200 viruses can cause cold symptoms, while the flu is caused by three viruses—virus A, B and C. There is no cure for either illness, but the flu can be prevented by the flu vaccine (疫苗), which is, for most people, the best way to fight the flu. But if the flu does strike, quick action can help. Although the flu and common colds have many similarities, there are some obvious signs to look for. Cold symptoms such as runny noses and scratchy throats typically develop gradually, and adults and teens often do not get a fever. On the other hand, fever is one of the characteristic features of the flu for all ages. And in general, flu symptoms including fever and chills, sore throats and body aches come on suddenly and are more severe than cold symptoms.

　The ALA notes that it may be particularly difficult to tell when infants and preschool-aged children have the flu. It advises parents to call the doctor if their small children have flu-like symptoms. Both cold and flu symptoms can be eased with over-the-counter medications as well. However, children and teens with a cold or flu should not take aspirin for pain relief because of the risk of Reye syndrome (综合症)，a rare but serious condition of the liver and central nervous system. There is, of course, no vaccine for the common cold. But frequent hand washing and avoiding close contact with people who have colds can reduce the likelihood of catching one.

1.According to the passage, knowing the cause of the misery will help ________.

A. shorten the duration(length of time) of the illness

B. the patient buy medicine over the counter

C. the patient obtain cheaper prescription drugs

D. prevent people from catching colds and the flu

2.We can learn from the passage that ________.

A. one doesn’t need to take any medicine if he has a cold or the flu

B. aspirin should not be included in over-the-counter medicine for the flu

C. delayed treatment of the flu will harm the liver and central nervous system

D. over-the-counter drugs can be taken to ease the misery caused by a cold or the flu

3.Which of the following symptoms will distinguish the flu from a cold?

A. A stuffy nose.                                     B. A high temperature.

C. A sore throat.                                     D. A dry cough.

4.If children have flu-like symptoms, their parents ________.

A. are advised not to give them aspirin

B. should watch out for signs of Reye syndrome

C. are encouraged to take them to hospital for vaccine

D. should prevent them from mixing with people running a fever

“Opinion” is a word that is used carelessly today. It is used to refer to matters of taste, belief, and judgment. This casual use would probably cause little confusion if people didn’t attach too much importance to opinion. Unfortunately, most believe it is of great importance. “I have as much right to my opinion as you to yours,” and “Everyone’s entitled to his opinion,” are common expressions. In fact, anyone who would challenge another’s opinion is likely to be considered intolerant(不可容忍的).

Is that label accurate? Is it intolerant to challenge another’s opinion? It depends on what definition of opinion you have in mind. For example, you may ask a friend “What do you think of the new Ford cars?” And he may reply, “In my opinion, they’re ugly.” In this case, it would not only be intolerant to challenge his statement, but foolish. It’s obvious that by opinion he means his personal preference, a matter of taste. And as the old saying goes, “It’s pointless to argue about matters of taste.”

　But consider this very different use of the term, a newspaper reports that the Supreme Court has delivered its opinion in a controversial(有争议的) case. Obviously the justices did not share their personal preferences, their likes and dislikes; they stated their considered judgment, painstakingly arrived at after thorough inquiry and careful consideration.

　Most of what is referred to as opinion falls somewhere between these two extremes. It is not an expression of taste. Nor is it careful judgment. Yet it may contain elements of both. It is a view or belief more or less casually arrived at, with or without examining the evidence. Is everyone entitled to his opinion? Of course, this is not only permitted, but guaranteed. We are free to act on our opinions only so long as, in doing so, we do not harm others.

1.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A. Everyone has a right to hold his own opinion.

B. Free expression of opinions often leads to confusion.

C. Most people tend to be careless in forming their opinions.

D. Casual use of the word “opinion” often brings about quarrels.

2.The new Ford cars are mentioned as an example to show that ________.

A. it is foolish to criticize a famous brand

B. one should not always agree to others’ opinions

C. personal tastes are not something to be challenged

D. it is unwise to express one’s likes and dislikes in public

3.Considered judgment is different from personal preference in that ________.

A. it is stated by judges in the court

B. it reflects public likes and dislikes

C. it is a result of a lot of argument　　

D. it is based on careful thought

4.As indicated in the passage, being free to act on one’s opinion ________.

A. means that one can ignore other people’s criticism

B. means that one can force others to accept his preferences

C. doesn’t mean that one has the right to do things at will

D. doesn’t mean that one has the right to charge others without evidence

America’s national parks are like old friends. You may not see them for years, but just knowing they’re out there makes you feel better. Hearing the names of these famous old friends ---Yellowstone and Grand Canyon --- revives memories of past visits and promotes dreams of those still to come.

Ancient fossil beds, Revolutionary War battlefields, mountain ranges, and monuments to heroic men and women who influenced this country are all a part of our National Park System (NPS). The care and preservation for future generations of these special places is entrusted to the National Park Service. Uniformed Rangers, the most visible representatives of the Service, not only offer park visitors a friendly wave, a helpful answer, or a history lesson, but also are rescuers, firefighters, and resource protection professionals. The National Park Service ranks also include historians, biologists and other experts who preserve and protect everything.

Modern society has brought the National Park Service both challenges and opportunities. Satellite and computer technologies are expanding the educational possibilities of a national park. Cities are turning to the Park Service for expert assistance to preserve their cultural heritage, and are also working with the NPS to turn abandoned railroad tracks into bike and hiking trails.

To help meet these challenges and take advantage of these opportunities, the National Park Service had formed partnerships --- some dating back 100 years, some only months old --- with other agencies, state and local governments, community groups and individuals who share the National Park ethic.

1.Which of the following statements is TRUE about uniformed rangers?

A. They take tourists to national parks.      B. They always act as tourist guides.

C. They help set up new national parks.      D. They protect the National Park System.

2.The National Park Service does all the following EXCEPT _____________.

A. offering help to visitors

B. influencing the Nation

C. informing people of the National Park System

D. helping preserve the cultural heritage

3.What is probably the best title for the passage?

A. American National Parks                         B. National Park Service

C. National Park Service Partnerships         D. Care and Preservation of American National Parks

4.What will the paragraph following this passage most probably discuss?

A. Cultural heritage of the National Park.

B. Educational possibilities of National Parks.

C. The work that has been done by the partners.

D. The preservation of national resources in America.
