As summer ends and fall begins, you can still enjoy spring flowers inside! It's an easy way to make your home look pretty．Some flowers grow from seeds．Other flowers grow from bulbs (球茎)．Some bulb flowers are easier than others to grow inside．A good one to try first is called a paperwhite．As many as twelve sweet-smelling flowers can grow from one paperwhite bulb．
But how can you grow one inside? Please follow those steps below:
1.Find a large glass jar (罐) that is clear enough to see through．Fill the jar almost to the top with stones or shells．This will give the bulb's roots something to hold on to as they grow．It will also give you a place to set the bulb．
2.Place the bulb on top of the stones．The bottom of the bulb is the part that is pointed, like the bottom of a heart shape．Push the bulb into the stones just far enough to make it stay．
3.Fill the jar with water．Use just enough water to cover just the bottom part of the bulb．
4.Put the jar in a place where the bulb will get plenty of light．Check every day to make sure there is still the right amount of water in the jar．Add water when it is needed．Soon the roots will start to grow．In a few weeks, you can enjoy watching the flowers bloom (开花)．

C. A kind of tree．
D. A kind of paper．

Have you ever noticed an advertisement which says "Learn a foreign language in six weeks, or your money back! From the first day your pronunciation (发音) will be excellent．Just send …" and so on? Of course, it never happens quite like that．The only language that is easy to learn is the mother tongue．And think how much practice that gets! Before the Second World War people usually learned a foreign language in order to read the literature (文学) of the country．
Now speaking the foreign language is what most people want．Every year many millions of people start learning one．How do they do it? Some people try at home, with books and tapes; some use radio or television programmes; others go to evening classes．If
they use the language only twice or three times a week, learning it will take a long time, like language learning at school．A few people try to learn a language fast by studying for six or more hours a day．
It is clearly easier to learn the language in the country where it is spoken．However, most people cannot afford this, and for many it is not necessary．They need the language in order to do their work better．For example, scientists and doctors mainly need to be able to
read books and reports in the foreign language．Whether the language is learned quickly or slowly, it is hard work．Machines and good books will help, but they cannot do the students' work for them．
1.Before the Second World War people learned a foreign language in order to ________．
A. speak to each other
B. listen to the radio
C. read something they didn't know
D. write the literature of the other country
2.The easiest way for us to learn a foreign language is ________．
A. using the language six or more hours a day
B. learning the language at school
C. studying the language in the foreign country
D. reading the foreign stories as many as possible
3.The passage mainly tells us that
A. the more you practise, the quicker you'll learn the language
B. it is possible for you to learn a foreign language in six weeks
C. it is not good for you to learn a foreign language by yourself
D. the quicker you learn a foreign language, the more you must pay for it

I am a Special Agent (特工) for the FBI (美国联邦调查局)．In order to become a Special Agent, you must graduate from college and have some other skills, training, or important work experience．
Special Agents receive training at a place called the FBI Academy, a special school for the FBI．The training is 16 weeks long．While they are at the Academy, they go to class and have homework just like you do! Special Agents take classes in science, law, and how to do investigations (调查)．New Special Agents are also taught how to use a gun safely．Once they graduate from the FBI Academy, Agents must be treated on their shooting skills four times a year．

The first Starbucks coffee shop opened in 1971 in downtown Seattle, Washington, D.C., in the United States．It was a small coffee shop that roasted its own coffee beans．The coffee shop's business did well, and by 1981 there were three more Starbucks shops in Seattle．
Things really began to change for the company in 1981．That year, Howard Schultz met the three men who ran (经营) Starbucks．Schultz worked in New York for a company that made kitchen equipment．He noticed that Starbucks ordered a large number of special coffee makers and he was curious about the company．Schultz went to Seattle to see what Starbucks did, and he liked what he saw．He wanted to become part of the company．In 1982, the original (原先的) Starbucks owners hired Schultz as the company's head of marketing．
In 1983, Schultz travelled to Italy．The unique atmosphere of the coffee bars there caught his eye．To Schultz it seemed that Italians spent their daily lives in three places: home, work place, and coffee bar．His experience in Italy gave Schultz a new idea for Starbucks back in Seattle．
Schultz created an atmosphere for Starbucks coffee shops that was comfortable, and customers (顾客) everywhere seemed to like it． Between 1987 and 1992, Starbucks opened 150 new shops—and that was only the beginning．In fact, by the year 2000, three new Starbucks shops opened somewhere around the world every day!
Today, Starbucks has thousands of shops, including shops in twenty-six countries．One thing that helps make Starbucks succeed in cities outside the United States is the way Starbucks works with local shops and restaurants．By working together with a store already
in the city, Starbucks gets an understanding of customers in the city．This understanding helps Starbucks open shops in the right locations for their customers．
1.What is the main idea of this passage?
A. How Starbucks has grown．
B. What Starbucks makes．
C. Starbucks' customers．
D. How Starbucks makes its coffee．
2.Which is TRUE about Starbucks' first ten years of business?

3.What helps Starbucks succeed in places outside the United States?
A. Opening restaurants in just a few locations each year．
B. Only selling locally produced coffee beans．
C. Working with other major coffee-making companies．
D. Learning about local customers．
4.Which shows the right order according to the passage?

阅读填空先通读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容，在文章后表格的空格内填入一个最恰当的单词。所填单词必须写在答题卡对应题号的横线上。每个空格只能填一个单词。
Have you ever been so worried about something that you have a headache or even can't sleep at night? Then you cannot pay enough attention during a test or to your study．If so, then you know that is stress．You are worried too much about something．The bad feeling
in your mind can make you angry, sad, or scared, and can even give you a stomachache or a headache．
However, some kind of stress is good． Excitement might happen when you are called to give a speech at school．You feel nervous but excited．This kind of stress can help you to get things well done．And you may do a better job in your test if the stress pushes you to prepare more beforehand．
On the other hand, bad stress can last long if you are unable to come over your problems．You may not feel well, if your parents are having a quarrel, if a family member is badly ill, if you're doing poorly at school, or if anything else makes you unhappy．That kind of stress isn't going to help you．And it can actually let you do worse in your daily life．
The best way to fight the stress is to have a balanced life．Make sure you get enough sleep and eat properly．Have some regular exercise．You should spend some time for fun．Get advice from your parents, teachers and friends．Soon after that, you'll probably get away with your stress．
