On a hot summer day in South Florida, a little boy decided to go for a swim in the old swimming hole behind his house. In a hurry to dive into the cool water, he ran out of the back door, leaving behind shoes and shirt as he went.
He flew into the water, not realizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake, a crocodile was swimming toward him. His mother in the house was looking out of the window and saw the two. In great fear, she ran toward the water, shouting to her son as loudly as she could. Hearing her voice, the little boy became alarmed and made a U-turn to swim to his mother. It was too late. Just as he reached her, the crocodile reached him. From the shore, the mother caught her little boy by the arms just as the crocodile snatched his legs. That began an incredible(难以置信的) tug-of-war between the two. The crocodile was much stronger that the mother, but the mother was much too eager（急切的） to let go. A farmer happened to drive by, heard their screams, raced from his truck, took aim and shot the crocodile.
After several weeks in hospital, the little boy survived（幸存）. His legs were very scarred by the attack(袭击) of the animal. And, on his arms, were deep scratches（抓痕）where his mother's fingernails dug into his flesh in her effort to hang on to the son she loved.
A newspaper reporter, who interviewed the boy, asked if he would show him his scars (伤疤). The boy lifted his legs. And then, with obvious pride, he said to the reporter," But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my Mom wouldn't let go."
Never judge（判断）another person's scars, because you don't know how they were made.
1.What is probably the best title for the passage?
A. Scars of love
B. Women hold up half sky
C. A terrible experience
D. Don't judge by appearances(外貌)
2.Hearing Mother's shouts, the boy _______.
A. remained in the middle in great fear
B. didn't stop swimming forwards
C. swam back towards the bank
D. was ready to fight the crocodile
3. Which of the following statements is true according to the text?
A. A crocodile attacked him when the boy and his mother were bathing.
B. The crocodile snatched the arms of the boy when it reached him.
C. It was the farmer who shot the crocodile.
D. There is always an interesting story behind every scar.
4. By saying "But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too." in Paragraph 4, the boy really wants to show ______.
A. how deep the scars made by the crocodile were
B. What a brave boy he was
C. how many scars and scratches he had
D. how great and beloved his mother was

One afternoon many years ago, I sat down on a bench in a park and watched a little boy, around 2 years old, running freely on the grass as his mother watched from a short distance. The boy would fall to the grass, get up, and without looking back at his mother, run as fast as he could as if nothing had happened.
When kids fall down, they don’t think of the fall as a failure. Instead, they consider it as a learning experience. They try and try again until they succeed.
While I was touched(感动的) by the boy’s strong mind, I was also touched by the way he ran. With each attempt, he looked so confident and natural. He only wanted to run freely and to do it as well as he could. He was just being a child – just being himself – being completely in the moment. He never gave up. Each time he fell, he got himself back up again, as if he knew that falling down was simply a part of life.
He was not looking for others’ smiles, or worrying about whether someone was watching or not. He only wanted to run and to feel the experience of running fully and freely. I learned a lot from that experience, and have successfully brought that lesson with me in many parts in my life.
1.From Paragraph 1, we know that the boy’s mother ______.
A. was strict with him B. had a special way to educate her son
C. didn’t love her son as much as others D. was too weak to help her son get up
2.The underlined word “attempt” in Paragraph 3 may mean “______”.
A. try B. help C. support D. mistake
3.The writer was touched by the boy because the boy ______.
A. might stop running when he fell down
B. never fell down if he made up his mind to run
C. didn’t care about the fall and went on running
D. was good at running and never fell down
4.What can we learn from the story?
A. Falling down will make a person feel frightened from then on.
B. Falling down is the mother of success.
C. When others are watching, people fall down easily.
D. One will succeed if he / she is confident and never gives up.

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.
