Luo Jingyu,19, has four years of experience of running business. He is also a freshman in the arts department of Hubei University.
Luo Jingyu is from an ordinary family. He said, “My parents told me if I wanted something I should make an effort to get it, so I earned pocket money by doing housework when I was little.” The dream of running his own business grew in his heart. He said, “I want to be a successful person, like Alibaba’s Ma Yun.”
When Luo was a junior student, he had the idea of selling lanterns when he saw many people flying Chinese lanterns in a square. Luo bought some lanterns from a store, but the sales were not as good as he had expected. Then he found another way to do business. He bought lanterns on the Internet at a very low price. Finally he easily made 5,000 yuan in two days.
With a happy beginning, Luo planned to open a dress shop. “My parents didn’t support me opening a dress shop, so I had to borrow 120,000 yuan for it.” Although he did market research before starting, the business wasn’t very good because his taste in fashion wasn’t accepted by customers. The shop eventually closed down after half a year.
After experiencing a big loss, he decided to do something he was familiar with—selling painting tools. As a fine arts student, he knew the market. He convinced his friends to invest one million yuan in his shop. With a good business mind and a lot of effort, the sales of the shop reached six million yuan in a year.
Even though Luo is rich, he uses a cheap cell phone and does not wear luxury clothes. He has a simple lifestyle. “It isn’t easy to make money, so money should be used on something worthwhile,” he said.
1.We can learn from the second paragraph that Luo’s parents____.
A. asked him for money to pay the rent
B. suggested that he work hard to get something
C. advise him to pay more attention to his studies
D. gave him some money to do business
2.Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. Luo learnt to make lanterns from his father.
B. Luo’s friends advised him to sell painting tools.
C. Luo borrowed money from the bank to open shops.
D. The loss at the dress shop taught Luo a lesson.
3.Which of the following words can describe Luo best?____.
A. Talented but lazy.
B. Rich but mean.
C. Hard-working and plain-living.
D. Optimistic and kind.

A newspaper reporter’s job can be very interesting. He meets all types of people and lives quite a busy life. He is on the rush for news all the time, then after several years he may get a desk job, and life becomes a bit more settled. Let’s look at his work a little more closely. In a day he may have to interview the prime minister of a foreign country, and the next day he may be writing about a football match. Sometimes he may be so busy that he has hardly any time to sleep. And at other times he may go on for days looking out for news materials yet return empty-handed.
In the beginning, a reporter has to cover a very wide field. After the early years he becomes more specialized in his work. For example, he may finally be asked to write only on court cases or politics or sports. Some reporters may become so specialized that they are asked only to write on a special thing: horse racing, for example. In most newspaper houses there is at least one special racing correspondent. Some newspapers have book reviews. Their job is delightful. They read the latest book and then write reviews on the ones they like. Then there are those who write on films, so they get to see them even before they are shown in the cinema. How lucky, you would say!
A reporter’s job can also be very dangerous. A number of them have died rushing from one assignment to another, and if there is a flood or a riot(暴) they may get hurt or even be killed. Three years ago there was a reporter whose camera was smashed by a group of men, because they were angry with him for taking their picture. Dangerous or not, one thing is certain, and that is, their job is never dull!
1.What does the underlined phrase “on the rush” mean in the passage?
A. on the beach B. on the spot
C. in a hurry D. in no time
2.Reporters who write on films are said to be lucky because they _____.
A. can see the films before most people see them in the cinema
B. can see more film stars
C. can pay less than other people
D. can write anything they like
3.A reporter’s work becomes dangerous when _____.
A. there is an interview with the prime minister
B. there is a flood or a riot
C. there is a football match
D. he is seeing a horror film
4.From the passage we can infer that, to be a good reporter, he must be all of the following EXCEPT_____________.
A. brave B. quick in mind
C. well-informed D. strong

From the health point of view we are living in a wonderful age. A large number of once fatal illnesses can now be cured by modern drugs and surgery. But though the possibility of living a long and happy life is greater than ever before, every day we witness the unbelievable killing of people on the roads. Man is opposite to the motor-car! It is a never-ending battle which man is losing. Thousands of people are killed each year and we are quietly sitting back and letting it happen.
It has been rightly said that when a man is sitting behind a steering-wheel(方向盘), his car becomes the extension of his personality. There is no doubt that the motor-car often brings out a man's worst character. People who are normally quiet and pleasant may become unrecognizable when they are behind a steering-wheel. They are rude, ill-mannered and aggressive. All their hidden frustrations and disappointments seem to be brought to the surface by the act of driving.
The surprising thing is that society smiles on the motorist and seems to forgive the behavior. Everything is done for his convenience. Cities and towns are made ugly by huge car parks.
It is high time a world law were created to reduce this senseless waste of human life. With regard to driving, the laws of some countries are not strict and even the strictest are not strict enough. A law which was universally accepted could only have a beneficial effect on the accident rate. Here are a few examples of some things that might be done. The driving test should be made to a fixed standard and far more difficult than it is; all the drivers should be made to take a test every three years or so; the age at which young people are allowed to drive any vehicle should be raised to at least 21 ; all vehicles should be put through strict annual tests for safety. Present drinking and driving laws (where they exist) should be made much stricter. Driving speed should be limited on all roads. These measures may sound rather severe. But surely nothing should be considered difficult if it results in reducing the annual toll of human life. After all, the world is for human beings, not motor-cars.
1.The main idea of this passage is______.
A. traffic accidents are mainly caused by motorists
B. only stricter traffic laws can prevent accidents
C. thousands of people in the world are killed each year
D. the laws of some countries about driving are too strict
2.Which of the following is right according to the passage?
A. It is right to build huge car parks in cities and towns.
B. Society ignores their rude driving.
C. Working by car can save time and money.
D. All the drivers must be asked to take a test every year.
3.Why does the author say" his car becomes the extension of his personality" ?
A. Driving can show his temper.
B. Driving can bring out his good character.
C. Driving can make a man excited and joyful.
D. Driving can show his real self.
4.The attitude of the author is______.
A. critical B. approving C. selfish D. determined
