He turned around only to find a goose pecking (啄) at the car door. This was highly unusual given that the birds typically preferred to observe humans from a distance.But on this day, the goose appeared to be determined to get his attention and kept pecking until Givens opened the car door and stepped out. The police officer says that though the bird then began to walk away, it kept turning around to make sure he was following. When they finally stopped, Givens realized why the mother goose had been so persistent ---- She needed help to free her gosling (小鹅) that had managed to get trapped in some balloon string.Worried that the mother goose would attack him if he got close to the baby, Givens called the local SPCA chapter. Unfortunately, they were unable to send anyone to help right away. Concerned that the gosling would not survive the delay, fellow police officer Cecilia Charron, who had just joined Givens, decided to take on the task herself.As is turned out, there was nothing to worry about. The mother goose appeared to realize that Charron was trying to help and watch patiently from a safe distance as the officer untangled (解开) the trapped bird. As soon as the little gosling was free, it trotted (小跑) to its mom, and the two took off shortly after. Charron, a 24-year-old veteran of the police force, said this would probable go down as the most memorable incident of her career.4.The goose pecked at the door ______.A.to make fun of the policeB. to ask for helpC. to warn the police of danger aheadD. to lead the police to find out the reason5.What was the problem with the gosling?A.It was caught by the police.B. It flew into a car.C. It was trapped by a balloon string.D. It lost its way back to its mother.6.SPCA is most probably ______.A.a branch of a firefighterB. a branch of the policeC. a local governmentD. an organization to protect animals7.The mother goose was ______.A.kind, brave and smartB. scared, clever and lovingC. determined, persistent and simple-mindedD. hopeless, kind-hearted and carelessCThe first potatoes were grown by the Incas of South America, more than 400 years ago. Their descendants (后代) in Ecuador and Chile continue to grow the vegetable as high as 14,000 feet up i the Andes Mountains. (That’s higher than any other food will grow.) Early Spanish and English explorers shipped potatoes to Europe, and they found their way to North America in the early 1600s.People eat potatoes in many ways ---- baked, mashed, and roasted, to name just three. However, in the United States most potatoes are eaten in the form of French fries, one fast-food chin alone sells more than $ 1 billion worth of fries each year no wonder, then that the company pays particular attention to the way its fries are prepared.Before any fry makes it to the people who eat at these popular restaurants, it must pass many separate tests. Fail any one of there tests and the potato is rejected. To start with, only Russet Burbank potatoes are used. These Idaho potatoes have less water content than other kinds, which can have as much as 80 percent of water. Once cut into “shoestrings” shapes, the potatoes are partly fried in a secret blend of oils, sprayed with liquid sugar to brown them, steam dried at high heat, then flash frozen for shipment to individual restaurants.Before shipping, every shoestring is measured. Forty percent of a batch must be between two and three inches long. Another 40 percent has to be over three inches. What about the 20 percent that are left in the batch? Well, a few short fries in a bag are okay, it seems.So, now that you realize the enormous size value of the potato crop, you can understand why most people agree that this part of the food industry is no “small potatoes”.8.Potatoes in North America came directly from ______.A.ChileB. EuropeC. EcuadorD. the Andes Mountains9.Why does the company pay special attention to the way the fries are prepared?A.Because selling fries is a big business.B. Because fries are not easy to prepare at allC. Because Americans are particular about fries.D. Because the government has a strict rule for that.10.In the last paragraph, the writer mainly wants to say ______.A.small potatoes cannot be used for friesB. potatoes are really important for AmericansC. eating in America is the very first thingD. fries are really important for food industry11.What’s the main idea of this passage?A.The average American eats 50 pounds of potatoes a year.B.French fries are made from potatoes.C.Potatoes are a key vegetable in America.D.The various terms for potatoes have a long history.DThe United States has always been a pluralistic society, meaning it has embraced may point s of view and many groups with different identities from its beginning. That is not to say that there groups always saw eye to eye. The first political parties developed in the United States as a result of conflicting visions of the American identity. Many politicians believed that wealthy merchants and lawyers represented the country’s true identity, but many others saw it in the farmers and workers who formed the country’s economic base.The event that brought this disagreement to the surface was the creation of the Bank of the United States in 1791. The bank set out to rid the country of the debts it had accumulated during the American Revolution Until then, each state was responsible for its own debts. The Bank of the United States, however, wanted to assume these debts and pay them off itself. While many people considered this offer to be a good financial deal for the states, many states were uncomfortable with thearrangement because they saw it as a power play by the federal government (联邦政府). If a central bank had control over the finances of individual states, then the people who owned the bank would profit from the states in the future. This concern was the basis of the disagreement: who should have more power, the individual states or the central government?The Democratic-Republican Party developed to protest the bank, but it came to represent a vision of America with power spread among states. The Federalist Party was established in defense of the bank, but its ultimate vision was of a strong central government that could help lead the United States toward a more competitive position in the would economy. These different points of view ---- central government versus separate states ---- would not be resolved easily. These same disagreements fueled the tension that erupted into the Civil War over half a century later.12.What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage?A.to persuade the reader to accept the Federalist Party’s point of view.B.to explain the disagreements between early American political parties.C.to explain the importance of a strong central government.D.to criticize the founders of the Bank of the United States.13.The opinion on who could represent American brought out ______.A.different political parties in AmericaB. the Bank of the United StatesC. the American RevolutionD. the Civil War14.Some people didn’t like the creation of the Bank of the United States because they ______.A.wanted to have more political partiesB.wanted to share the debts equallyC.didn’t want to give the central government more powerD.didn’t want to give money to just on bank15.______ would think that separate states should enjoy more power.A.Wealthy merchants and lawyersB. Farmers and workersC. The Federalist PartyD. The Democratic-Republican Party七选五One of the ways that airlines can reduce their costs is by buying fuel at the right time.

However, teachers there are excellent, who come from all over country and even abroad. They have a strong teaching ability to make classes more live and interesting, but students will be able to accept knowledge a bit more easily and better. However, not every student was fit to go to famous schools, in that there is fierce competition among students. And students there have to work much harder than these in ordinary schools.I hope the government will take effective measures to make sure all the schools to provide equally good educations.假如你是李华，你的美国笔友Peter从网上知道了“I Sing China”的活动，这一活动旨在推广汉语、传播中国文化，他很想参加这一活动，请你根据要点给他写一封回信。
