Jack threw some papers on my desk and looked at me angrily.

“What’s wrong?” I asked.

“Next time you want to change anything, ask me first,” he shouted and left.

“How dare he treat me like that?” I thought. I had just changed one long sentence, and correct grammar--- something I thought I was paid to do. In fact I had been warned. On the first day one of　 my workmates took me aside and reminded me of his temper. As the weeks went by, I came to look down on Jack.

One day Jack’s other papers left me in tears so I stormed into his office angrily.

“What?” he asked.

Suddenly I knew what I must do. After all, he earned it. “Jack, the way you’ve been treating me is wrong. I’ve never had anyone speak to me that way. As a professional, it’s wrong for me to allow it to continue,” I said. Jack smiled nervously, “Susan, I make you a promise that I will be a friend. I will treat you as you should be treated, with respect and kindness,” he said. With these words, I left.

Jack avoided me the rest of the week, and never questioned my work again. I brought cookies to the office one day and left some on his desk. Another day I left a note: “Hope your day is going great.” Over the next few weeks, Jack reappeared , but there were no more Jack’s papers. One year later I discovered I had breast cancer, and was scared. The statistics (统计数字) were not great for my long-term survival.

On the last day of my hospital stay, Jack came and silently handed me a bundle with several bulbs inside. “Tulips (郁金香) ,” he said. I smiled, not understanding. He cleared his throat. “If you plant them when you get home, they’ll come up next spring. I think you will be there to see them when they come up.” Tears clouded my eyes and I whispered: “Thank you.”Jack held my hands firmly, saying, “You are welcome. You can’t see it now, but next spring you will see the colors I picked out for you.”

I have seen those red and white striped（有条纹的） tulips push through the soil every spring for over ten years now. This past September the doctor declared me cured. At a moment when I was praying for just the right word, a man with very few words said all the right things. After all, that’s what friends do.

1.Jack was angry with the author because___________.

A. she pointed out his mistakes in public

B. she changed the contents of the papers

C. she read the papers without his permission

D. she corrected the papers without telling him

2.The author entered Jack’s office with the purpose of ________________.

A. telling him about the mistake he had made

B. comforting him for the mistakes he had made

D. telling him she wanted to make friends with him

3.Why did the author cry on the last day of her hospital stay?

A. She was afraid that she would die soon.

B. She was moved by Jack’s flowers and words.

C. She was pleased that Jack became a good man.

D. She was angry with Jack for what he did to her.

We all know what a brain is. A doctor will tell you that the brain is the organ of the body in the head. It controls our body’s functions, movements, emotions and thoughts. But a brain can mean so much more.

A brain can also simply be a smart person. If a person is called brainy, he is smart and intelligent. If a family has many children but one of them is super smart, you could say, “He’s the brains in the family.” And if you are the brains behind something, you are responsible for developing or organizing something. For example, Bill Gates is the brains behind Microsoft.

Brain trust is a group of experts who give advice. Word experts say the phrase “brain trust” became popular when Franklin D. Roosevelt first ran for president in 1932. Several professors gave him advice on social and political issues(问题)facing the U.S. These professors were called his “brain trust”.

These ways we use the word “brain” all make sense. But other ways we use the word are not so easy to understand. For example, to understand the next brain expression, you first need to know the word “drain”. As a verb, to drain means to remove something by letting it flew away. So a brain drain may sound like a disease where the brain flows out the ears. But, brain drain is when a country’s most educated people leave their countries to live in another. The brains are, sort of, draining out of the country.

However, if people are responsible for a great idea, you could say they brainstormed it. Here, brainstorm is not an act of weather. It is a process of thinking creatively about a complex topic. For example, business leaders may use brainstorming to create new products, and government leaders may brainstorm to solve problems.

If people are brainwashed, it does not mean their brains are nice and clean. To brainwash means to make some accept new beliefs by using repeated pressure in a forceful or tricky way. Keep in mind that brainwash is never used in a positive way.

1.According to the text, if you’re the CEO of Bai Du you can be called 　　 .

A. the organ of Bai Du　　 B. the brains behind Bai Du

C. the brain drain of Bai Du　　 D. Bai Du’s brain trust

2.Roosevelt successfully won the election probably because 　　 .

A. he was the brains behind America　　 B. he got the help of word experts

C. he was smart at giving advice　　 D. he got his brain trust

3.From the passage, we can infer that 　　 .

A. brainy and brainwash are never used in a negative way

B. brainstorming is not a good choice for a political leader for lack of creativity

C. a country suffers a “brain drain” when educated people move to other countries

D. to drain a lake means to fill it with a lot of water

4.The author explains the “brain” expressions by 　　 .

A. using examples　　 B. making comparisons

C. making comments　　 D. analyzing origins

If you want to become a better reader, what should you know about the speed of reading? Some people read very quickly, while others read very slowly. But which one is better?

The quick reader may be a good reader when he reads a storybook for fun. But he may not be able to slow down enough to read directions (说明书) carefully. He may read so quickly that he does not take time to understand fully the ideas and information which are important to remember.

The slow reader may be a good reader when he reads directions for making something. But he may spend too much time in reading a simple story which is meant to be enjoyed but is not important enough to be remembered.

So, you see, either a quick reader or a slow reader is not really a good one. If you wish to become a better reader, here are four important things to remember about the speed of reading.

First, knowing why you are reading will often help you to know whether to read quickly or slowly.

Second, some things should be read slowly throughout. Examples are directions for making or doing, something, science and history books, and math problems. You must read such things slowly or remember each important step and understand each important idea.

Third, some things should be read quickly throughout. Examples are simple stories for enjoyment, letters from friends and bits of news from hometown papers.

Finally, in some of your reading, you must change your speed from fast to slow and slow to fast, as you go along. You will need to read certain pages quickly and then slow down and do more careful reading when you come to important ideas.

1.What should be read quickly according to the passage?

A.Science and history books.
