10、eavily the night before, and Mr. Smiths son Bobby had a new sledge (雪橇), which he had been very eager to try out for a long while. There was a good slope (斜坡) in a park not far away from the Smiths house a slope which children often used for their sledges, so Mr. Smith agreed to take Bobby there in
11、the car. They put the sledge in and went off. When they reached the park, they found that there were already a lot of boys there, each boy with a sledge of his own. They were sliding down the slope at great speed, and then pulling their sledges up again for another go. Mr. Smith stood by, watching t
12、hem with a smile. It was obvious that each and every one of them had much fun. After a few moments, Mr. Smith suddenly saw among the boys a kid who was small and poorly-dressed, and did not have a sledge. This boy had flattened out one old cardboard box, and was sliding down the slope on that. Mr. S
13、mith felt very sorry for this poor boy, and determined to tell his son Bobby to share his new sledge with the boy. But before he could catch Bobby to speak to him, he was somewhat surprised and much more delighted to notice that several of the older boys in the park were already offering the poor bo
14、y their nice sledges. Mr. Smith watched them with greater interest and suddenly realized that the bigger boys were not doing this because they felt sorry for the poor boy, but because they enjoyed riding on his cardboard box more than on their own sledges. They were actually waiting eagerly and impa
15、tiently for a turn on the flattened cardboard box!21. What did Bobby desire to do for a long time? A. To test and play with his new sledge. B. To make a new icy slope by himself.C.

18、r boys had already offered their sledges to the poor boy24. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Children should be taught the value of sharing at an early age.B. The cardboard box is always a perfect gift for the bigger boys.C. Simple and unusual things are sometimes popular among the kids.
19、D. Actually the bigger boys wanted to help the poor boy in some way.BChina is a land of bicycles. At least it was back in 1992 when I traveled the country. Back then every one seemed to be riding a bicycle. Millions of them , all black. Cars were rare. Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year , Ive
20、 found the opposite is true. There are millions of cars. However , people still use their bicycles to get around. For many , its the easiest and cheapest way to travel today. Bicycles also come in different colors-silver, green, red, blue, yellow, whatever you want. Its fun watching people biking. T
21、hey rush quickly through crossroads , move skillfully through traffic , and ride even on sidewalks. Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just cant provide. Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture , I decided to buy a bicycle. Great weather accompanied my great buy. I
22、immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home. My first ride home was orderly. To be safe , I stayed with a “pack” of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times. I didnt want to get hit. So I took the ride carefully. Crossing the streets was the biggest
23、 problem. It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States. The streets here were wide, so crossing took time , skill and a little bit of luck. I finally made it home. The feeling on the bicycle was amazing. The air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful. I was s

36、pportunity and standards of achievement must regularly test its pupils. The standards may be changedno examination is perfectbut to have no tests or examinations would mean the end of equality and of standards. There are groups of people who oppose this view and who do not believe either in examinat
37、ions or in any controls in schools or on teachers. This would mean that everything would depend on luck since every pupil would depend on the efficiency, the values and the purpose of each teacher.Without examinations, employers will look for employees from the highly respected schools and from fami
38、lies known to thema form of favoritism will replace equality. At the moment, the bright child from an ill-respected school can show certificates to prove he or she is suitable for a job, while the lack of certificate indicates the unsuitability of a dull child attending a well-respected school. This
39、 defense of excellence and opportunity would disappear if examinations were taken away, and the bright child from a poor family would be a prisoner of his or her schools reputation, unable to compete for employment with the child from the favored school.The opponents of the examination system sugges
40、t that examinations are an evil force because they show differences between pupils. According to these people, there must be no special, different, academic class. They have even suggested that there should be no form of difference in sport or any other area: all jobs or posts should be filled by un
41、systematic selection. The selection would be made by people who themselves are probably selected by some computer.33. The word “favoritism” in paragraph 3 is used to describe the phenomenon that _.A. bright children also need certificates to get satisfying jobsB. poor children with certificates are
42、favored in job markets C. children from well-respected schools tend to have good jobs D. children attending ordinary schools achieve great success34. What would happen if examinations were taken away according to the author?A. Childrens job opportunity would be affected by their school reputation B.
43、 Schools for bright children would lose their reputation.C. There would be more opportunities and excellence.D. Children from poor families would be able to change their schools.35. The passage mainly focuses on _.A. schools and certificatesB. opportunity and employment C. standards and reputation D

One is that to live a day is to leave a day. The other is that to live a day is to enjoy a day. Just one word difference,

The earliest ices were eaten in China many years ago. The people would put orange juice on ice. Later this idea traveled to Italy. Nero, the emper
85、or of Rome between 37 and 68 AD liked to eat ice as a special treat between violin lessons. He ordered runners to run to the mountains, get snow and quickly ran back to the palace. The snow was mixed with fruit juices and nuts. Around 1660, coffee shops serving ice cream were very popular in Paris.
86、Italians owned most of the coffee shops. A man from Sicily, named Francesco, opened the first successful one. Before ice cream was sold in stores, it was made and frozen at home. It took a lot of work to make the cream, eggs, fruit, ice and salt and then to freeze it. Nancy Johnson, an American woman who was good at machines invented the hand-turned ice-cream freezer in 1846. Five years later, Jacob Flusell opened the first ice cream business in Maryland, US. His business quickly spread to other states. Today, in the US, ice cream is not only a nice food, but a way of life.
