When my brother and I were growing up, we mowed(割草)yards during the summer to make pocket money. Dad was our salesman. He traded our service to neighbors at a price they could not refuse. My brother and I got $10 per yard. I later found out our friends had asked $20 or more for the same amount of work.

One afternoon we were cutting our neighbor's yard, the grass was knee-high. What made matters worse was that we had an old lawn mower that kept shutting off as we worked through her lawn. This particular afternoon, I was finishing up and was tired and sweaty. I was just about to leave when I saw Dad pointing to one lone piece. Thinking about the poor money I was getting paid for cutting grass so high that it almost broke the mower, I ignored him and kept walking. Dad called me out, “You missed a piece”.

I frowned(皱眉), hoping he would let me slide and go home. He kept pointing. So angry, I went back to cut that piece of grass. I said to myself, “That one piece isn't hurting anyone. Why won't he just let it go?”

But when I became an adult, I understood his message: When you are running a business, the work you do says a great deal about you. If you want to be seen as a businessman with honesty, you must produce a quality product. That single piece of grass meant the job was not done. Other neighbors took notice of the good work we did and we soon got more business.

The lesson my dad taught me stayed with me: If you say you are going to perform a job at certain time, keep your word. Give your customers the kind of service you would like to receive. It shows how sincere you are and how much pride you take in your work.

1.Why did Dad ask much less for mowing the yards?

A.Because he was not a good businessman. B.Because he didn’t care about money too much.

C.Because he thought his children s service was bad. D.Because the owner of the yard was too poor.

2.When Dad asked the writer to go back, the writer felt_____________.

A.excited B.surprised C.angry D.pleased

3.The underlined word “sincere”in the last paragraph can probably be replaced by.

A.clever B.honest C.happy D.able

4.The best title for the passage may be__________.

A.The Memory of My Childhood B.The Yard of Our Neighbor

C.The Lesson from My Dad D.The Grass Cutting Days

In the summer of 2011 my friend and I decided to go to Italy for a holiday and we decided to travel there without going through a travel agency. You know, you would not be seen among the tourists and lose lots of chances to get familiar with the country more closely. We started to think over our trip and tried to come up with a free tour to Italy.

The trip was not very long but it was so exciting that we never forgot. We look forward to going there again! Of course, we spent lots of time arranging the trip, but it was well worth it! Of course I was afraid that something would go wrong and I was especially worried about my visa, but everything went quite well in the end.

The most difficult part was getting a visa without an invitation. In the Italian consulate (领事馆), one must hand in some official paper proving that one has a hotel booked for oneself in order to get the visa. Then we had to solve the ticket problem. Airlines often sell cheap tickets and we bought ours far earlier. The next step was to book a hotel. We finally booked a hotel about 30 km away from the centre of Rome and it was the perfect choice for our trip.

Every day we took a train that carried us to the centre of Rome. Our big house was among the forest. The beautiful views, nice hosts, comfortable living conditions made us happy to no end. Besides this, we were very lucky that our hostess was Russian. She gave us a lot of advice that was of great use. She told us what transport to choose and where the best places to go.

Don’t be afraid to arrange your trip by yourself. It’s not difficult! The only thing I’ll say right now is that we really enjoy travelling by ourselves. We walked with a map and a guide-book wherever we wanted to go and we even met some of our countrymen on the way just two or three times. So, if you’re also planning a “single” trip, don’t forget to take a Russian-Italian phrasebook as people in Italy prefer to speak in their local language.

1.From the passage, we know the writer chose the free tour to Italy because ______.

A. his friend invited him there　　　　　　　

B. he wanted to spend less money

C. it was very hard for him to find a travel agency

D. he wanted to get familiar with the country more closely

2.The hardest thing in preparing for his Italian trip was ______.

A. booking a comfortable hotel on his own in Rome

B. buying cheap airline tickets to Italy before travelling

C. solving the ticket problem and booking a hotel far earlier

D. getting a visa from the Italian consulate without an invitation

3.Which of the following questions is NOT answered in the article?

A. How did the writer prepare for his trip?

B. Why did the writer decide to go to Italy for a holiday?

C. What transport did the writer choose for his travelling?

D. Why did the writer decide not to go through a travel agency?

4.From the article, we can know the writer ______.

A. likes to travel with tour guides

B. met a lot of his countrymen in Italy

C. advises us to arrange trips by ourselves

D. enjoys travelling everywhere in the world

During the summer holiday, some students might have been busy with traveling, summer camps and all kinds of courses. But a special group of Chinese middle school students decided to taste the hardship of life outside school.

Twelve students in a big city sold vegetables at a local market together. Within 12 days, they made more than 1,500 yuan.

Among them, the oldest is 21 years old, while the youngest is just 10. They are all cousins in a big family and eight of them are from rural areas.

"Compared to traveling, such social practice connects us and makes us learn how difficult our parents are," said Dalin, 18, to the City Morning Post. Dalin, a senior high graduate, and her 12-year-old brother Xiaolin came up with the idea.

They learned to work hard to sell their veggies. Every morning they had to wake up at 3 o'clock. Some of them went to the farmer's market to buy vegetables. Some of them went to the local market to lake up a temporary stall(临时摊位). To lower the cost, they learned to bargain(讲价) with the sellers.

At about 6:30 am, they began to sell vegetables. They peddled(吆喝) loudly to attract(吸引) customers. After several days, they got some experience, too.

For example, it was better to put vegetables in order and bigger ones on top. When the vegetables are too heavy, they should give customers an extra plastic bag.

When they finally packed up and went home, they had a small meeting. Everyone took notes and shared their feelings.

"We are tired," said Dalin. "but we gained a lot.
