As one comes to some crossroads, he or she sees a sign which says that drivers have to stop when they come to the main road ahead. At other crossroads, drivers have to go slow, but they do not actually have to stop unless, of course, there is something coming along the main road; and at still others, they do not have either to stop or to go slow, because they are themselves on the main road.

Mr. Williams, who was always a very careful driver, was driving home from work one evening when he came to a crossroad. It had a “SLOW” sign. He slowed down when he came to the main road, looked both ways to see that nothing was coming, and then drove across without stopping completely.

At once he heard a police whistle, so he pulled into the side of the road and stopped. A policeman walked over to him with a notebook and a pen in his hand and said, “You didn’t stop at that crossing.”

“But the sign there doesn't say ‘STOP’.” answered Mr. Williams, “It just says ‘SLOW’, and I did go slow.”

The policeman looked around him, and a look of surprise came over his face. Then he put his notebook and pen away, scratched his head and said, “Well, I’m in the wrong street!”

1.When he was stopped by a policeman, he ____.

A. was driving at a high speed               B. was driving onto the main road

3.Looking round Mr. Williams, the policeman was surprised because__________ .

B. he realized that he himself was mistaken

Diamonds may be forever. But what’s a girl to do when she gets dumped (失戀) or divorced (離婚) and those rings, necklace and love gifts lose their emotional (情感) sense?

Help is just a click away on new Web sites that provide an outlet for selling jewelry(珠寶) from past relationships, sharing break-up stories and helping broken hearts heal (愈合).

“You go through a divorce. What do you do with that ring? Maybe you have a child you can pass it on to. Maybe you don’t. It just sits there, ” said Megahn Perry, who with her stepmother (繼母) Marie Perry runs www.exboyfriendjewelry.com.

Three months after its start with the slogan(口號) “You Don’t Want It. He Can’t Have It Back,” the web site has 3,000 registered users and more than 600 postings of rings, bracelets and earrings for sale—all with a personal tale attached.

As one woman posting a diamond ring for $3,500 wrote:

“Beautiful ring came with a wrong man. Decided to sell to regain the money that I spent finishing payments on the ring that my ex didn’t.”

The idea was born when Megahn Perry, a Los Angeles actress and writer, was looking for a safe place to sell a wedding set after a divorce and realized others might have former boyfriends’ jewelry with memories(記憶) that make them too painful to wear.

The local pawn shop(當鋪) proved an unattractive choice. So she teamed up with her stepmother Marie, researched the market and found a gap in it.

The passage is mainly about _____.

  A. how a web site is set up                             B. how sad the love stories are

  C. How much a website can make                   D. How many people like the web site

How long is it since the start of this website?

  A. Less than three months.                             B. At least three months.

  C. Less than one month.                                D. Not known.

How many people have registered on this website within three months?

  A. About 600.           B. About 3,000.            C. About 3,500.            D. Not know.

Who set up this website?

  A. Megahn herself alone.                               B. Megahn and her best friend.

  C. Megahn and her stepmother.                      D. Megahn and her exboyfriend.

What’s the meaning of the underlined word “gap” in the last sentence?

  A. Gulf between two people.                        B. Misunderstandings among each other.

  C. Differences from a pawn shop.                 D. A market worth developing.

Planning a visit to the UK? Here we help with ways to cut your costs.

AVOID BIG EVENTS  Big sporting events, concerts and exhibitions can increase the cost of accommodation and make it harder to find a room. A standard double room at the Thistle Brighton on the final Friday of the Brighton Comedy Festival (19 Oct.) cost £169.15 at Booking.com. A week later, the same room cost £118.15.

If you can be flexible and want to know dates to avoid—or you’re looking for a big event to pass your time—check out sites such as Whatsonwhen.com, which allow you to search for events in the UK by city, date and category.

STAYAWAY FROM THE STATION If traveling to your destination by train, you may want to find a good base close to the station, but you could end up paying more for the sake of convenience at the start of your holiday.

Don’t be too choosy about the part of town you stay in. Booking two months in advance, the cheapest room at Travelodge’s Central Euston hotel in London for Saturday 22 September was £95.95. A room just a tube journey away at its Covent Garden hotel was £75.75. And at Farringdon, a double room cost just £62.95.

LOOK AFTER YOURSELF Really central hotels in cities such as London, Edinburgh and Cardiff can cost a fortune, especially at weekends and during big events. As an alternative consider checking into a self-catering flat with its own kitchen. Often these flats are hidden away on the top floors of city centre buildings. A great example is the historic O’Neill Flat on Edinburgh’s Royal Mile, available for £420 for five days in late September, with room for four adults.

GET ON A BIKE London’s ‘Boris bikes’ have attracted the most attention, but other cities also have similar programmes that let you rent a bicycle and explore at your own pace, saving you on public transport or car parking costs.

Among the smaller cities with their own programmes are Newcastle (casual members pay around £1.50 for two hours) and Cardiff (free for up to 30 minutes, or £5 per day). (358 words)

1.The Brighton Comedy Festival is mentioned mainly to show big events may __________.

A．lies on the ground floor

B．is located in central London

C．provides cooking facilities for tourists

D．costs over £100 on average per day in late September

A．half an hour                           B．one hour

C．one hour and a half                      D．two hours

Grammy nominated (格萊美獎提名)artist and globally admired DJ and Producer Paul van Dyk continues to lead the electronic music charts and appears at the highpoint of every Top DJ list across the globe. PvD, as his fans have nicknamed him, is currently ranked the World’s No. 1 DJ by DJ Magazine’s “Top 100 DJs poll” for the second successive year.

PvD is well-known as one of the hardest working artists, with sold-out tours that cross each continent, headline spots at every major festival, and a hugely successful recording career. With over 3 million albums sold worldwide, van Dyk travels around the world over 16 times each year to sold out performances internationally.

Born in Eisenhuettenstadt, East Germany, Paul van Dyk grew up in East Berlin. Because his community did not have a true club culture, Paul van Dyk listened to the radio where he discovered his passion for music that extended beyond Techno music—he wanted to create a different, more unique sound. In the early 1990’s Paul van Dyk was performing regularly at various clubs in Berlin before releasing his first album 45 RPM in 1994. But it was the release of his second album Seven Ways that put him into Top 100, followed by the release of his hit single “For An Angel,” which began to earn him praise across the globe. By the time Paul van Dyk released Out There & Back in 2000, it became clear that the Berlin-based musician had far more to offer than his signature club sets that had already defined him as one of the most influential DJs and producers of all time. His first mix CD Politics of Dancing was released in 2001, followed by Global in 2003—a DVD which illustrates his own experiences traveling the world.

1.What activity does this passage introduce to us?

A. Paul van Dyk Volume World Tour at Babyface Guangzhou.

B. Grammy Prize Ceremony at Babyface Guangzhou.

C. Release of PvD’s original album Reflections.

D. The foundation of Babyface China Official.

2. Which album first made PvD into the Top 100?

A. For An Angel.         B. Seven Ways.          C. 45 RPM.     D. Out There & Back.

3.According to the passage PvD can be best described as _______.

A. intelligent but proud                     B. hardworking but absent-minded

C. optimistic and outgoing                   D. creative and potential

4.PvD’s passion for music originated from _______.

A. performing at various clubs                   B. listening to the radio

C. his tours across the globe                    D. his true club culture

5. According to the passage, PvD _______.

A. is ranked the world’s No.1 DJ in Top 100 DJs Poll for life

C. sings about politics in his mix CD Politics of Dancing
