Mrs Burt was walking along a San Francisco street. Suddenly a man took her purse and ran. She was very angry. She had ten dollars, her bus pass, and the key to her house in her purse. Mrs Burt ran after the thief.
The thief ran one block, two blocks, three blocks. The thief was a young man, so he could run fast. Mrs Burt was not a young woman—she was 73 years old—but she could run fast, too. Mrs Burt stayed right behind the thief.
Mrs Burt was wearing two chopsticks in her hair. The chopsticks had sharp ends. Mrs Burt took the chopsticks out of her hair. "Maybe I can stab(刺)the thief with these chopsticks," she thought. "Then he will drop any purse."
The thief ran into an apartment building. Mrs Burt followed him. "Help! Stop him!" she shouted. "He has my purse!"
Two police officers were walking near the apartment building. They heard Mrs Burt and ran to help her. One police officer stayed with Mrs Burt. The other police officer chased the thief.
The police officer found the thief on the roof of the apartment building. The thief was looking in Mrs Burt's purse. When he saw the police officer, the thief dropped the purse and jumped off the building. The building was two storeys high.
A few minutes later the police officer caught the thief. He was hiding under a car. He couldn't run because he had broken his legs. The police took the thief to jail. The thief will stay in jail for a long time. But the thief was lucky. He was lucky that the police caught him. He was lucky that Mrs Burt didn't catch him!

Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)
Imagine the situation. You are driving along a desert or on a mountain. You have no idea where you are. You passed the last house two hours ago. Then your car breaks down. It is night and it is cold. You have no mobile phone. What do you do? Well, next time take a GPS with you. This invention may be able to help you. It is a device(装置)which uses satellites(卫星)to find the user's position(位置). It can find your position to within 20 metres. A GPS cannot start your car, but at least you will know where you are.
GPS, which means Global Positioning System, is a small radio receiver. It looks like a mobile phone. You can hold it in your hand, or put in your pocket. It is sometimes put into a watch or a telephone. We also find GPS devices in cars, planes, or boats. Some of these devices have electronic maps, so you know where you are. For example, in a city they can tell you the name of the street.
There are three parts to the Global Positioning System. The first part is the receiver. You can hold it in your hand, or have it fixed into your car, plane, etc. The second part is a group of satellites orbiting the Earth. The receiver contacts at least four of the satellites and calculates(计算)its position. The third part of the system is a network of ground stations. They are all over the world. They control the satellites and make sure they are working well.
Some people think that in the future the GPS will be as common as the mobile. They are becoming cheaper and more and more accurate(精确的). There are also new uses for the GPS. Perhaps they will become like watches. Everyone will have one and you will never be lost again.
1.GPS can help you find your position, can’t it?
2.What does a GPS look like?
3.How many things are mentioned that GPS devices can be put into?
4.What is the use of ground stations?
5.Why do some people think GPS devices will be popular in the future?
6.What is the author’s purpose of writing this passage?

Dear Mrs. Smith,
I regret to inform you that your order for bed clothes and curtains will not arrive on schedule. The reason for this is the factory that supplies our fabrics(面料) flooded during the typhoon over the weekend.

As soon as we receive it, my company will also give your order priority; after all, you are a valuable customer for us. We’ll try to get all the bed clothes and curtains done as soon as possible.

He calmed the monster as much as he could, and started talking to him, asking him why he was crying, and what he was doing there.

A different kind of alarm clock
When Matty Sallin, 24, was studying art and technology at New York University, he got an interesting task for the final exam: Create something for the ordinary family. He decided to create an alarm clock.
“To get up in time, many people have to use an alarm clock every morning. But the sound of the clock is extremely noisy and unpleasant,” he says. So before he started to design the new clock; he asked different people what they’d like to wake up to in the morning, and lots of them said, “The smell of bacon(培根).”
So Sallin and his two classmates invented a new kind of alarm clock: a wooden box with a pig face and a digital clock that uses the smell of cooking bacon to wake people up. He explains, “There’s no danger of burning, because I built it carefully. It uses special light bulbs(灯泡) instead of fire for cooking and turns off automatically after ten minutes.” Just a few easy steps are required to set the “alarm”.
“What you do is to put a few pieces of bacon meat inside the box the night before, then you set the alarm,” says Sallin. “If you set the alarm for 8: 00, it will turn on at 7:50 and slow cook for ten minutes under the bulbs. Then the bulbs turn off and a fan blows the smell out through the nose of the pig.”
“So the pleasant smell of bacon will wake you up. There will be no more noisy alarms,” says Sallin. “Then you can open the door on the side and pull the bacon out and eat it.”
When Sallin was a kid, he spent a lot of time making drawings of inventions. “I wanted to make a lift in my back yard and a special tree house,” he says. “But I never really thought I’d become an inventor!”
Sallin got an A for his alarm clock and went on to invent other thing, but people continue to email him every day asking where they can buy his alarm clock. If he decides to produce and sell his special alarm clock, maybe he can build a successful business out of it.
1.What was Matty Sallin?
______________________________________________________
2.How many people worked together on the new alarm clock?
__________________________________________________________
3.How long did it take to cook the bacon?
_________________________________________________________________
4.Why are light bulbs used for cooking bacon instead of fire?
_______________________________________________________________________
5.What’s special about Sallin’s alarm clock?
_________________ wakes people up instead of the loud alarm.
6.What do you think of the new alarm clock?

Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)
Now it was Jerry's turn. And Jerry would ride Wild Lady! I watched Jerry in the cute.
Jerry dropped down on the horse's back. He was ready to go. "Outside!" He called.
The gate of the cute opened. And then nothing. Wild Lady didn't move. What was the matter?
Suddenly Wild Lady jumped out like a tiger. She jumped—with all four feet off the ground. She was quick, still I could see Jerry's spurs(马刺). He had them in the right place.
Again Wild Lady jumped, kicking and turning. Then she began a quick turn. Now I knew why all the riders were afraid of her. Around and around she went. Again and again she dug her front legs into the ground and kicked up behind. Jerry's neck moved back each time the horse jumped.
Now Wild Lady was turning fast—so fast that Jerry looked like part of her. Once I saw Jerry bounce(弹起)up high, off to one side. "That's it!" I thought. But no! She was still riding.
I was trying to count off the seconds with my fingers. But I was lost in the watching. I dug my nails(指甲)into my hand until it hurt. Wild Lady jumped higher and higher.
Again the horse threw Jerry into the air. The people around me stood up. I couldn't see what was happening. But I heard, "Come on!" That was Jerry landing on the horse's back. Everybody was shouting. And they were still shouting when the bell rang. It was all over, Jerry had stayed on that horse for eight long seconds.
Now I had seen Jerry ride. I don' know how he felt while he was on that horse. But I know how I felt watching him. That eight seconds was a long time for Jerry. It was a long time for me too!

Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)
I grew up in a small town in Italy. One morning when I was 16, Dad told me I could drive him into a village, about 18 miles away, if I took the car to be serviced (保养)at a nearly garage. Thinking that I had just learned to drive, and hardly had the chance to use the car I agreed happily. I drove Dad into the village and made sure to pick him up at 4 pm. Then I drove to a nearby garage and dropped off the car. Because there were still a few hours to be left, I decided to watch movies at a theatre near the garage. But, when the last movie finished, I was two hours late. I was afraid of the result being late. I thought if dad knew what I had done,he could never let me drive again. So when I drove up the place where we had planned to meet and saw dad waiting patiently on the comer. I told him that I had come as quickly as I could, but the car had needed some special repairs.
“I'm terribly sorry that you have to lie to me, Janson.”
“What do you mean. Dad? I'm telling the truth.”
“I called the garage to ask if there were any problems, and they told me that you had not yet picked up the car. So I know there were no problems with the car. I’m angry not with you but with myself. You see. I’ve failed as a father, so I’m going to walk home now and think carefully about where I have gone wrong all these years.”
“But it’s dark, and it's 18 miles to walk home.”
I pleased(请求)all the way, telling him how sorry I was. But nothing helped. I had to drive behind him for 18 miles.
It was one of the most painful moments I had ever had. But it was the best lesson.
