I hid the long black bag in the garage (车库) two days ago. Tonight, in the dark, I would finally take it away. If everything went OK, it would be done by morning. But I had to be sure no one, not even my wife, saw me.

It was more difficult to get away from the party than I expected. I said that the children were tired and needed to get to bed. It was partly true. But the main reason for leaving was that I wanted to complete my plan.

First I had to get the kids to sleep. That was never easy at any time and tonight it was even more difficult. The eldest one wanted to know why we left the party early. I told him 10:30 pm was not early. As usual, I read them a bed time story, but I had to stop myself reading too quickly or they would learn my secret.

Silence finally came, and feeling like a thief (小偷) in the night, I went out of the house and into the garage. Taking one end, I pulled the bag out from its hiding place and took it into the garden. I was worried that my neighbours might see me and call the police.

It was already eleven o’clock. By the light of the moon I started working, trying to make as little noise as possible. And that was not easy with a saw (锯子) and a hammer (锤子).

After much hard work, I finally completed my work. I looked down at my watch. It was exactly 4:00 am. Then I went inside to have a shower and get a few hours of sleep. It wouldn’t be long now before the kids would rush into my room and wake me up to tell me about the new tree-house Father Christmas brought them this year.

1.　 Why did the man feel nervous?

A. He left the party too late.

B. He was afraid of the darkness.

C. He didn’t know where the black bag was.

D. He worried that others would know his secret.

2.　 The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 3 refers to_______.

A. thieves　 B. parents　　 C. children　　 D. neighbours

3.　 In what order did the man do the following?

a. Read the kids a story.

b. Had a shower.

c. Worked in the moonlight.

d. Pulled the bag from the garage.

e. Went to a party.

A. e-d-a-b-c　　 　 B. e-a-d-c-b

C. a-b-e-d-c　　　　 D. a-e-d-c-b

4.　 How would the children feel when they saw the man’s work?

A. Interested.　 B. Excited.　　 C. Tired.　　 D. Angry.

Hundreds of years ago, people carried news from place to place on foot or by horse. It took days, weeks and sometimes months for people to receive news. Now it is possible to send words and pictures around the world in seconds. Billions (十亿) of people learn about news stories of their own country and all over the world every day, by watching TV or reading newspapers.

Newspapers became an important part of everyday life about three hundred years ago. And they are always important. Many countries have hundreds of different newspapers. How do newspaper editors decide which news stories to choose? Why do they choose some stories and not others? What makes a good newspaper story?

Firstly, it is important to report (报道) news stories. TV stations can report news much faster than newspapers. Yet, newspapers give more about the same story. They may also look at the story in another way, or they may choose quite different stories to those on TV.

Secondly, a news story has to be interesting and unusual. People don’t want to read stories about everyday life. So, many stories are about some kind of danger and seem to be “bad” news. For example, newspapers never choose stories about planes landing safely； instead they choose stories about plane accidents (事故).

Another factor (因素) is also very important in many news stories. Many people are interested in news in foreign countries, but more like to read stories about people, places and events (事件) in their own country. So the stories on the front page in Chinese newspapers are usually very different from the ones in British, French and American newspapers.

1.According to the passage, how do people learn about news stories in the world now?

A. They carry news stories and tell others from place to place on foot or by horse.

B. They tell each other what they see with their eyes.

C. They listen to the radio every day.

D. They watch TV, read newspapers or search on the Internet.

2.The difference between newspaper stories and TV news reports is that __________.

A. people can learn more about the same news story from a newspaper

B. people can read the news story more quickly in a newspaper

C. people can read news stories in other countries

D. people can read news stories about their own country

3.According to the passage, which of the following can you most possibly read in newspapers?

A. You often play football with your friends after school.

B. Your teacher has got a cold.

C. A tiger in the city zoo runs out and people can’t catch it.

D. The bike in front of your house is lost.

4. Which of the following is TRUE in this passage?

A. News stories on the front page of every country are different.

B. People only read interesting and unusual news at their spare time.

C. News stories in newspapers must be different to those on TV.

D. Newspapers became an important part of everyday life years ago.
