Ricky didn’t help much around the house, so his parents bought him a butler (管家) robot. As soon as it arrived, off it went, cooking, cleaning, and   36  dirty clothes from Ricky’s bedroom   37  . On that first day, when Ricky went to sleep, he had left his bedroom in a   38  . When he woke up the next morning,   39  was perfectly clean and tidy.
But now Ricky couldn’t   40  his favorite T-shirt, nor his favorite toy. However much he searched, the two items didn’t   41  , and the same was starting to happen with other things.   42  the butler robot, Ricky thought of a plan to   43  on it, and finally caught it red-handed (正在作案的), picking up one of his toys to  “ 44 ”  it.
He told his parents that the butler was   45  and asked them to have it   46 . But his parents didn’t believe him at all for they were   47  with the butler for its good service. Ricky kept on telling them how much good stuff the butler was hiding, until one day the butler heard the boy’s   48.  Then it returned some of the boy’s toys and clothes to him.
“Here, sir. I did not know it was   49  you,” said the butler.
“How could it not, you thief?! You’ve been stealing my stuff for weeks!” the boy answered  50.     “The objects were left on the floor;  51  I thought that you did not like them. I am programmed to collect all that is not   52  , and at night I send them to those who can use them. I’m a highly efficient machine,” the bulter said.
Ricky started feeling   53  . Since then, Ricky decided to put real  54  into how he treated his things. He also often bought things and took them to help out those who are  55  -- along with his good friend, the butler of course.

A child, who has once got interested in a tale, likes, as a rule, to have it retold in almost the same words, but this should not lead parents to treat printed fairy stories as formal texts. It is always much better to “tell” a story than just “read” it out of a book, and, if a parent can produce his own as an improvement on the printed text, according to his child’s actual situation, so much the better.
There is a charge made against some fairy tales, as they probably harm children by frightening them or leaving them sad feelings. To prove it, an experiment has been done to show that children who have heard terrible fairy stories often feel more uneasy than those who have not. As for fears, there are some cases where children get timid (膽怯的) by some fairy story. Often, however, this arises from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition may weaken the pain of fear.
There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that the stories are not objectively true, and that those giants, witches, two-headed dragons, magic carpets etc. do not really exist, so children should be taught to learn the reality by studying history, instead of being got fond of the strange side in fairy tales. Those, who prefer to create such stories, are so peculiar (奇怪的) that it is hard to argue with them. If their creative exaggeration (夸張) were sound, the world should be full of mad men attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a stick or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their beloved girl-friend.
Not once is a fairy story ever declared to be a description of the real world, but not every child is clever enough to be aware of it. Parents should choose their children’s “bed-time” reading materials with much care. Only the fairy stories containing positive effect will make a clever and caring child with rich imagination.   
小題1:The author considers that a fairy story is more effective when it is ______.
A．repeated without any change
B．treated as no more than a joke
C．made some changes by parents
D．set in the present situation
小題2:According to the passage, when a child hears a terrible fairy story, ______.
A．he will get more interested
B．great fear can take place in him
C．he will like it to be repeated
D．a(chǎn)n experiment is being done
小題3:The word “sound” in Para.3 can be understood as ______.
A．fashionable B．forgettableC．a(chǎn)vailableD．believable
小題4:The author mentions “sticks” and “telephones” to prove that ______.
A．fairy stories are all made up
B．fairy tales lead to misunderstanding
C．children are cheated by old stories
D．there is more concern for children
小題5:One of the reasons why some people are not in favor of fairy tales is that ______.
A．they are made up far from the truth
B．they are so full of imagination
C．they are not interesting at all
D．they make history difficult to teach
小題6:It makes sense that parents choose fairy stories with ______ as “bed-time” reading materials..
A．formal printingsB．creative scenesC．positive effectD．terrible characters

Here in Alaska, the wolf almost disappeared a few years ago, because hunters were killing hundreds of them for sport. However, laws were passed to protect the wolves from sportsmen and people who catch the animals for their fur. So the wolf population has greatly increased. Now there are so many wolves that they are destroying their own food supply.
A wolf naturally lives on animals in the deer family. People there also hunt deer for food. Many of the animals have been destroyed by the very cold winters recently and by changes in the plant life there. When the deer can’t find enough food, they die.
If the wolves continue to kill large numbers of deer, the deer will disappear some day. And the wolves will, too. So we must change the life cycles there. If we killed more wolves, we would save them from starving. We also save deer and some farm animals.
In another northern state, wolves attack cows and chickens for food. Farmers want the United States government to send a team of scientists to study the problem. They believe it is necessary to kill wolves in some areas and to protect them in places where there is a small population.
小題1:In Alaska, laws have been passed to ____.
A．protect people from wolves and deer
B．protect wolves from becoming dangerous
C．protect wolves from dying out
D．keep wolves from killing large numbers of deer
小題2:Why is it that if wolves go on killing a good many deer the wolves will die out?
A．Because wolves will have no deer to kill.
B．Because people will kill them for punishment.
C．Because killing deer is dangerous.
D．Because wolves mainly live on deer.
小題3:In order to protect more deer from being killed, one way is to ____.
A．pass a lawB．keep deer away from wolves
C．kill more wolvesD．serve wolves more food
小題4:Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A．Some wolves in some areas must be killed, which others should be protected.
B．Wolves should be protected, for there’s a small population of it on earth.
C．All wolves should be protected, for they eat deer, cows and chicken.
D．It is necessary for scientists to protect wolves, or the cycle of life will be changed

The common cold is the world's most widespread illness, which is a serious infection that man receives.
The most widespread mistake of all is that colds are caused by cold. They are not. They are caused by viruses passing on from person to person. You catch a cold by touching directly or indirectly, with someone who already has one. If cold causes colds, it would be reasonable to expect the Eskimos to suffer from them forever. But they do not. And in separate Arctic (北極的)areas, explorers have reported being free from colds until touching again with infected people from the outside world by way of packages and mail dropped from airplanes.
During the First World War, soldiers who spent long periods in the trenches, cold and wet, seldom caught colds.
In the Second World War, prisoners at Auschwitz concentration camp, bare and starved, were astonished to find that they seldom had colds.
At the Common Cold Research Unit in England, volunteers took part in experiments in which they gave themselves to the discomforts of being cold and wet for a long time. After taking hot baths, they put on bathing suits, allowed themselves to be with cold water, and then stood about dripping wet in a room. Some wore wet socks all day while others exercised in the rain until close to exhaustion. Not one of the volunteers came down with a cold unless a cold virus was actually dropped in his nose.
If then, cold and wet have nothing to do with catching colds, why are they more frequent in winter? Despite the most hard research, no one has yet found out the answer. One explanation offered by scientists is that people tend to stay together indoors more in cold weather than at other times, and that makes it easier for cold viruses to be passed on.
No one has yet found a cure for the cold. There are drugs and pain-killers such as aspirin, but all that they do is to reduce the symptoms.
小題1:The writer thinks the cause of catching cold is due to_______.
A．touching anyone directly
B．touching anyone indirectly
C．cold weather
D．getting viruses from person to person
小題2:Arctic explorers may catch colds when___.
A．they are working in the separate Arctic areas
B．they are writing reports in terribly cold weather
C．they are free from work in the isolated Arctic regions
D．they are coming into touch again with the outside world
小題3:Volunteers taking part in the experiments in the Common Cold Research Unit___.
A．suffered a lotB．never caught colds
C．often caught coldsD．became very strong
小題4:The passage mainly discusses___.
A．the experiments on the common cold
B．the mistake about the common cold
C．the reason and the way people catch colds
D．the continued spread of common colds

For many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner．Like a border conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about boundaries: Where is the line between what I control and what you do?
Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict．In part, this is because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for starting it．From the parents’ point of view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents’ complete unreasonableness．And of course, the teens see it in exactly the same way, except oppositely．Both feel trapped．
In this article, I’ll describe three no-win situations that commonly arise between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap．The first no-win situation is quarrels over unimportant things．Examples include the color of the teen’s hair, the cleanliness of the bedroom, the preferred style of clothing, the child’s failure to eat a good breakfast before school, or his tendency to sleep until noon on the weekends．Second, blaming．The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong．Third, needing to be right．It doesn’t matter what the topic is．The laws of physics or the proper way to break an egg —the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong, for both wish to be considered an authority—someone who actually knows something — and therefore to command respect．Unfortunately, as long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other, they’ll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress．
小題1:Why does the author compare the parent-teen war to a border conflict?
A．Both can continue for generations．
B．Neither can be put to an end．
C．Neither has any clear winner．
D．Both are about where to draw the line．
小題2:What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean?
A．The teens cause their parents to mislead them．
B．The teens agree with their parents on the cause of the conflict
C．The teens blame their parents for starting the conflict．
D．The teens tend to have a full understanding of their parents
小題3:Parents and teens want to be right because they want to ________．
A．give orders to the otherB．gain respect from the other
C．know more than the otherD．get the other to behave properly
小題4:What will the author most probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?
A．Solutions for the parent –teen problems．
B．Examples of the parent –teen war．
C．Causes for the parent –teen conflicts．
D．Future of the parent-teen relationship．

Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer.
___1___ Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, and scream and yell. But other people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing anger.
For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person’s health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases the same hormones (荷爾蒙). They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood, etc. ___2___
Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.
___3___ They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, “___4___ Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.”
Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry. ___5___
A．In general the person feels excited and ready to act.
B．They said that laughter is much healthier than anger.
C．Expressing anger violently is more harmful than repressing it.
D．Do not express your anger while angry.
E. Anger may cause you a cancer.
F. Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time.
G. Doctors say the solution is learning how to deal with anger.

___1____ Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing or whistle when you are happy.
However, they sing most of the time for a very different reason. ____2___ Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy.
Do you know what a “territory” is? A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male, claims(聲稱(chēng))as its own. ____3___ No other families of the same species are welcome. Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away. If so, you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time, especially at nesting(筑巢)season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not.__4__.
Birds sing loudest in the spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs. You can see that birds have a language all their own. ___5__
A．Only he and his family are welcome there.
B．Most of it has to do with attracting mates and setting up territories.
C．Have you ever wondered why birds sing?
D．Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.
E. Have you ever wondered why birds sing?
F. Most of the language is widely used.
G. This screaming is what we call a bird’s song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.

It’s school time again! You’re probably feeling excited and maybe a little sad that summer is over. Some kids feel nervous or a little scared（害怕） on the first day of school because of all the new things: new teachers, new friends, and even a new school. Luckily, these “new” worries only stick around for a little while. Let’s find out more about going to a new school.
Most teachers kick off the new school year by introducing themselves and talking about all the stuff you’ll be doing that year. Some teachers give students a chance to tell something about themselves to the rest of the class, too. When teachers do the talking on the first day, they often go over classroom rules and school rules so you’ll know what’s allowed and what’s not. Please pay close attention
You might already know a lot of people in your classes on the first day, but it’s a great day to make a new friend, so try to say hello to kids you know and new ones that you don’t. Make the first move and you’ll be glad you did, and so will your new friend!
Seeing friends you haven’t seen for some time can make the first day a good one. You can make the day feel special by wearing clothes that you really like. Maybe you got a great T-shirt on one of your vacations, or a pair of sneakers（運(yùn)動(dòng)鞋）. It also can make you feel good to be prepared and have all the things you need, such as pencils, folders, and whatever else you’ll be needing. But make sure that you pack them the night before in case you don’t have time in the morning.
小題1:The underlined phrase “kick off” in the second paragraph probably means “_____”.
A．startB．studyC．findD．teach
小題2:The last paragraphs mainly tell us about ________.
A．what to know about a new school
B．how to prepare for a new school
C．what to do on your first day of school
D．how to spend your first day of school
小題3:According to the passage you usually do everything on the first day of school except _______.
A．introduce yourselfB．learn about the school rules
C．make new friendsD．go over your new lessons
小題4:If you happen to see an old friend on the first day of school, from the passage we know that you will feel ________
A．nervousB．luckyC．happyD．excited
