In many countries the standard of living enjoyed by their people has increased rapidly in recent years. Sadly, not everyone in these countries is so fortunate and many people in rich countries are homeless.
The reasons for homelessness are various, but poverty(贫穷)is undoubtedly one of the main causes. The homeless people may have become jobless and then been unable to pay their rent and so no longer have a roof over their heads. Often, the fact that unemployed people get help from the government prevents this from happening , but not always.
Some homeless people are mentally ill and have no one to look after them. Some are young people who, for one reason or another, have left home and have nowhere to live. Many of them have had a serious disagreement with their parents and have left home, choosing to go to a city and live on the streets. Sometimes they have taken such action because they have been unable to get on with a step-parent.
Many homeless people get into the habit of begging to get enough money to stay alive, but many of the general public refuse to give anything to beggars. Often they are moved on by the police , being accused(指控), whether rightly or wrongly, of forceful begging. There are many who disrespect homeless people.
Some cynics(愤世嫉俗的人)declare that homeless people choose to live the life which they lead. But who would willingly choose to live in a shop doorway, under a bridge or in a cardboard box?
1.According to the text, what causes some people to be homeless?
A. The increased standard of living B. No government help
C. Agreement with their parents D. Lack of money
2.It can be inferred from the text that_______.
A. you will not find homeless people in countries with a high standard of living
B. the mentally ill live on the streets because they want the company of other homeless people.
C. the unemployed who receive help may still be among the homeless
D. the homeless are willing to live under a bridge or in a cardboard box
3.In paragraph 2, “a roof over their heads” most probably means _______.
A. a home B. a cap C. a car D. a covering
4.The author thinks that the homeless people are ______.
A. admirable B. respectable C. troublesome D. pitiful

The triathlon(铁人三项运动) promises to be one of the most popular Olympic sports.Recently it has drawn huge crowds attracted by athletes swimming 1,500m,cycling 40km,then running 10km without stopping.But what makes an attractive 17yearold girl give up everything for the doubtful pleasure it offers?
Melanie Sears has not yet learnt those oftenrepeated phrases about personal satisfaction,mental challenge and higher targets that most athletes use when asked similar questions.“You swim for 1,500m,then run out of the water and jump on your bike,still wet.Of course,then you freeze.When the 40km cycle ride is over,you have to run 10km,which is a long way when you’re feeling exhausted.But it’s great fun,and all worth it in the end,” she says.
Melanie entered her first triathlon at 14 and she won the junior section.Full of confidence,she entered the National Championships,and although she had the second fastest swim and the fastest run,she came nowhere.“I was following this man and suddenly we came to the sea.We realised then that we had gone wrong.I ended up cycling 20 kilometres too far.I cried all the way through the running.”
But she did not give up and was determined that she never will.“Sometimes I wish I could stop,because then the pain would be over,but I am afraid that if I let myself stop just once,I would be tempted(诱惑) to do it again.”Such doggedness draws admiration from Steve Trew,the sport’s director of coaching.“I’ve just been testing her fitness,” he says, “and she worked so hard on the running machine that it finally threw her off and into a wall.She had given it everything,and she just kept on.”
Melanie was top junior in this year’s European Triathlon Championships,finishing 13th.“I was almost as good as the top three in swimming and running,but much slower in cycling.That’s why I’m working very hard at it.” She is trying to talk her longsuffering parents,who will carry the £1,300 cost of her trip to New Zealand for this year’s world championships,into buying a £2,000 bike,so she can try 25km and 100km races later this year.
But there is another price to pay.“I don’t have a social life,”she says.“After two hours’ hard swimming on Friday night,I just want to go to sleep.But I phone and write to the other girls in the team.” What does she talk about?Boys?Clothes?“No,what sort of times they are achieving.”
1.How does Melanie differ from other athletes,according to the writer?
A.She worries less than they do.
B.She expresses herself differently.
C.Her family background is not like theirs.
D.Her aims are different from theirs.
2.What upset Melanie during the National Championships?
A.She was tricked by another competitor.
B.She felt she had let her teammates down.
C.She made a mistake during part of the race.
D.She realized she couldn’t cycle as fast as she thought.
3.What is Melanie trying to persuade her parents to do?
A.Buy an expensive bike for her.
B.Give her half the cost of a bike.
C.Let her compete in longer races.
D.Pay for her to go to New Zealand.
4.What does Melanie say about her relationships with her teammates?
A.She would like to see them more often.
B.She only discusses the triathlon with them.
C.She thinks they find her way of life strange.
D.She dislikes discussing boys or clothes with them.
