A

Each morning Grandpa was up early sitting at the kitchen table, reading his book. His grandson wanted to be just like him and tried to copy him in every way he could.

One day the grandson asked, “Grandpa, I try to read the book just like you, but I don’t understand it, and I forget what I understand as soon as I close the book. What good does reading the book do?”

The grandpa quietly turned from putting coal in the stove and replied, “Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back a basket of water.”

The boy did as he was told, but all the water leaked out before he got back to the house. The grandpa laughed and said, “You’ll have to move a little faster next time,” and sent him back to the river with the basket to try again.

This time the boy ran faster, but again the basket was empty before he returned. Out of breath, he told his grandpa t hat it was impossible to carry water in a basket, so he went to get a bucket instead.

The grandpa said, “I don’t want a bucket of water; I want a basket of water. You’re just not trying hard enough.”

The boy again dipped the basket into the river and ran hard, but when he reached his grandpa the basket was empty again. Out of breath, he said, “Grandpa, it’s useless!”

“So, you think it is useless?” the grandpa said, “Look at the basket.”

The boy looked at the basket and for the first time he realized that the basket was different. It had been transformed from a dirty old coal basket and was now clean.

“Grandson, that’s what happens when you read the book. You might not understand or remember everything, but when you read it, you’ll be changed, inside and out.”

B

It was Sunday morning. I heard loud noises of moving furniture in the next room. I could almost feel the excitement of John who was soon going to get a room of his own. I knew how much

he longed for his right to privacy when he was sharing a room with his younger brother, Robot. He said, “Mum, C an I have a room of my own? I could use Jeff’s. He won’t mind.”

It was true that Jeff had graduated from college and flown from the nest. But would he mind? The room was the place where I told him a thousand stories and we had a thousand talks. As close as we were, though, the time came when Jeff needed a door between us. His life was spreading into areas that had less to do with family. I no longer could-or-should know everything about him.

It turned out that getting Jeff’s permission was easy. He said, “Of course, Mum, it would be selfish of me to hold on to it.” Then his voice softened, “Mum, I won’t be living at home again —you know that.” Behind his glasses, his eyes were lit with all the love. There were no doors closed here — they had all opened up again.

As John and I were cleaning the room, I fixed my eyes on Jeff’s things around me and cou ld almost touch the little boy I knew was gone forever. I looked at the room and, in my heart, I let it go. To hold on would be, as Jeff said, selfish. Now it was time for John, shouldering through the door, his eyes bright with promise of independence, to disappear behind the door. It was time for letting go to happen again.

5. The underlined sentence in the second paragraph probably means “______”.

A. Jeff needed his right to privacy

B. Jeff finally flew out of the house

C. Jeff got tired of those familiar stories

D. Jeff would have less to do with his family

6. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. John was moving to live with his brother.

B. John was eager to get a room of his own.

C. Jeff volunteered to give his room to John.

D. Jeff refused to let his brother have his room.

7. How did the author feel about her children’s sense of independence?

A. Delighted.

B. Jealous.

C. Mixed.

D. Embarrassed.

8. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.

A. the children did not like to live with adults

B. all her three kids made the author feel depressed

C. none of the members in the family thought the same way

D. the author loved and missed the time together with her kids

C

Have you ever found yourself in this situation: You hear a song you used to sing when you were a child – a bit of nostalgia(怀旧) or “blast from the past,” as we say. But it is not a distant childhood memory. The words come back to you as clearly as when you sang them all those years ago.

Researchers at the University of Edinburgh studied the relationship between music and remembering a foreign language. They found that remembering words in a song was the best way to remember even one of the most difficult languages.

Here is what they did. Researchers took 60 adults and randomly divided them into three groups of 20. Then they gave the groups three different types of “listen-and-repeat” learning conditions. Researchers had one group simply speak the words. They had the second group speak the words to a rhythm, or beat. And they asked the third group to sing the words.

All three groups studied words from the Hungarian language for 15 minutes. Then they took part in a series of language tests to see what they remembered.

Why Hungarian, you ask? Researchers said they chose Hungarian because not many people know

the language. It does not share any roots with Germanic or Romance languages, such as Italian or Spanish. After the tests were over, the singers came out on top. The people who learned these new Hungarian words by singing them showed a higher overall performance. They did the best in four out of five of the tests. They also performed two times better than those who simply learned the words by speaking them.

Dr. Katie Overy says singing could lead to new ways to learn a foreign language. The brain likes to remember things when they are contained in a catchy 3, or memorable 4, tune 5.

Dr. Ludke said the findings could help those who struggle to learn foreign languages. On the University of Edinburgh’s website Dr. Ludke writes, “This study provides the first experimental evidence that a listen-and-repeat singing method can support foreign language learning, and opens the door for future research in this area.”

9. The “song” mentioned in the first paragraph is intended to______.

A. recall the past

B. attract the readers

C. introduce the topic

D. compare the childhood with the present

10. According to the pas sage which language doesn’t share the same root with Germanic or Romance

languages?

A. Hungarian

B. Spanish

C. Italian

D. English

11. Based on the last two paragraphs, we can conclude that ______

A. singing is the best way to learn a language.

B. the brain probably works best when the foreign language learners sing the words.

C. a listen-repeat method is very effective for any language learner.

D. Dr. Katie Overy and Dr. Ludke disagree with each other.

12. In which situation can the finding of the research be applied?

A. A mother is going to teach her baby how to speak.

B. A child is going to have his first music lesson.

C. A student is going to learn a new English song.

D. An American is going to learn some Chinese.

D

If you live in a big city, there are many things to drive you crazy on your daily route, and it’s not just overcrowded subway trains.

Vicky Zhao is a mainlander working in Hong Kong. For her, one thing she can’t put up with is people standing on the wrong side of the escalator(自动扶梯) in subway stations. “Escalators help us move faster and save time. It isn’t a place to rest,” the 24-year-old says. “I often see tourists block the way with their suitcases or chatting on the escalators during rush hours. It annoys me to no end.”

Admitting she is not the patient type, Zhao says things are much better in Hong Kong than in cities on the mainland where “stand right, walk left” signs are often ignored.

The logic behind the “stand right, walk left”escalator etiquette(礼仪) seems obvious. Even though you may want to catch your breath while you’re transported up or down, you should still cons ider others and leave enough space for people in a hurry, so that they can run and catch the train.

Many cities’ escalators, including London’s and Beijing’s, use the “stand right, walk left” system to speed up the flow of people. (Australia is an exception and you should stand on the left side instead.) But some cities discourage people from moving on escal ators out of safety r easons. In Hong Kong’s subway stations there are regular announcements asking people to “stand still” on escalators. Even so, most people in this fast-paced city observe the “stand right, walk left”etiquette.

But the people who stand on escalators defend themselves by telling the walkers not to be so

impatient. The B BC quotes one stander as saying: “If the person is in such a rush, why not just

take the stairs? Even when the escalator is packed and there’s nowhere to move, I see these same people complain ing about not being able to pass.”

Whatever the escalator etiquette is in the place you live or visit, do what most people

are doing and always be mindful of others: leave enough space between each other, don’t stay at the end of the escalator, and if some one is blocking your way, a simple “excuse me” is enough.

13. In the second paragraph, the underlined word “It” refers to_____.

A. the author’s living in the big city of Hong Kong.

B. being crowded on the subway trains in rush hours.

C. people’s blo cking the way or chat on the escalators.

D. people’s standing on the right side resting.

14. When on the escalator, a majority of local people in Hong Kong_____.

A. stand still as the railway stations require.

B. ignore the “ stand right, walk left” signs

C. use the stairs instead of escalators.

D. follow the “stand right, walk left” etiquette.

15. Which of the following statements is the writer’s opinion?

A. People should stand right no matter where they are.

B. People should do as the Romans do and consider others.

C. People should do as they like on the escalators.

D. People should be seriously criticized when they block the way.

Always Changing

Jack is leaving, and I’m feeling kind of sad.

You probably don’t know Jack, but you might be lucky enough t o 21 someone just like him. He’s been the heart and soul of the office for a coupl e of years combining 22 professional skills with a sweet and gentle nature.

And now he’s moving on to an exciting new professional 23 . It sounds like it could be the chance of a lifetime, and we’re 24 for him. But that doesn’t make it any easie r to say goodbye to him.

Life has a way of throwing these curve(曲线) balls 25 us. Just when we start to get comfortable with a person, a place or a situation, something comes along to 26 the recipe.

Our ability to cope with change 27 to a great degree, our peace, happiness and contentment in life.

But how do we do that? A friend of mine is fond of reminding us that “survivability depends upon 28 .” And then there’s Chris the California surf-rat, who once told me that the answer to li fe’s problems can be 29 in four words: “Go with the flow.”

I'm not exactly sure, but I think Chris was saying that life is a series of 30 —both good and bad. No matter how excellent your skill, there will always be life-influencing factors over which you have no 31 . The truly successful person expects the unexpected, and is prepared to 32 adjustments if the need should arise—as it almost 33 does.

That doesn’t mean you don’t keep trying to make all your 34 come true. It just means that when things come up that aren’t 35 in your plan, you work around them—and then you move on.

“Change, indeed, is painful, 36 ever needful,” said philosopher Thomas Carlyle. “And if memory has its force and worth, so also has 37 .”

We’re going to miss Jack. But rather than stay on the 38 of our parting, we’ll focus on our hopes for a brighter future—for him, and for us. And then we’ll go out and

39 everything we can to make that future happen.
